[Continued from Extra 4]
There was no census in the slums. Finding a six-year-old beta child in the slums was undoubtedly like looking for a needle in a haystack. However, there was a clue in the book that Xie Ruheng’s father worked in the underground arena. Bai Zhi investigated the underground arena through the mecha racer and found Xie Ruheng’s family.
Tang Bai was wearing a small cloak and was held in Bai Zhi’s arms, muttering to Bai Zhi that he was no longer a three-year-old child and could enter the underground arena on his own.
“You are a six-year-old child.” Bai Zhi said seriously, “There is no need to enter the underground arena. The child you are looking for will come out when the game is over. We can just wait at the door.”
“I want to see him early.” Tang Bai covered his eyes, “How about I stop looking around when I get in? I’ll just look at Xie Ruheng in the audience.” After saying that, he removed his hand and looked at Bai Zhi eagerly.
Bai Zhi: “…”
Bai Zhi: “Don’t look at me like that. I know you are very sensible and like a little adult.”
Hearing this, Tang Bai put his arms around Bai Zhi’s neck and kissed Bai Zhi’s cheek.
Bai Zhi: “…”
Bai Zhi: “I am a very firm person.”
Tang Bai stared at Bai Zhi for a moment and kissed Bai Zhi twice.
Bai Zhi, who was said to have a firm stance, then silently carried Tang Bai into the underground arena. As he entered, he was thinking about what kind of poison Tang Bai had given him. Bai Zhi, who had a younger brother Bai Li, didn’t like children very much, but Tang Bai was obviously an exception.
Tang Bai, who had succeeded in acting coquettishly, was very happy. He lay on Bai Zhi like a sticky rice cake. Four alpha bodyguards surrounded them and sat down with them on the seats closest to Xie Ruheng.
Tang Bai finally met the protagonist of this book, Xie Ruheng.
Six-year-old Xie Ruheng was still a beta. The book said that he would undergo secondary differentiation at the age of fourteen. Before differentiation, Xie Ruheng’s appearance was not surprising, with black hair and eyes, wearing simple clothes and a black feather mask, like a gray ugly duckling.
But Xie Ruheng was obviously very happy at this time. He was sitting next to his mother and looking intently at his father on the martial arts stage.
He was used to seeing blood and violence. Instead of being frightened by the competition on the stage, he was still calm and strangely excited. He still devoted himself to this competition.
Tang Bai stretched his neck to look at Xie Ruheng curiously. He couldn’t imagine that this child as tall as him would become a federal marshal and the light of omegas in the future.
This was the light of omegas who would sacrifice everything for the Federation. He was described in the book as having an indestructible image, but when it fell in front of him, he looked like just a small one.
Father Xie won the game on the stage. So, Xie Ruheng stood up and applauded. Halfway through the applause, he turned his head as if aware and met Tang Bai’s gaze.
Little Tang Bai, who looked like a snow dumpling, wore a cloak embroidered with complicated patterns. The layers of delicate lace around the neckline under the cloak reminded Xie Ruheng of budding flowers.
His amber eyes were as transparent as glass, making him look clean and harmless.
Xie Ruheng saw the aristocratic young master wearing a white feather mask smiling brightly at him, revealing his white teeth with one missing front tooth and the sweet dimples in his cheeks.
The lighting design in the auditorium of the underground arena was poor. He had heard that too many people died in the underground arena. In order to give the undead a place to live, the underground arena was designed like this. Only locations close to the martial arts arena could be illuminated by fire. So, it shone brightly, but the rest of the place was dim, dark and cold, as if it bred unsightly evil.
Xie Ruheng was used to such darkness, but when he saw the person in front of him smiling like this, he suddenly had the illusion that the darkness had been dispelled.
“Ruheng, what do you want to eat tonight?” His mother’s words made Xie Ruheng turn his head. He said a few words to his mother. When he looked at the place again, he found that the beautiful young aristocratic young master was missing.
After seeing Xie Ruheng, Tang Bai was satisfied and was taken away by Bai Zhi. He had asked Bai Zhi to give his pocket money to the person in charge of the underground arena and asked him to send the money to Xie Ruheng’s family. With this money, even if Xie Ruheng’s mother was seriously ill, she would not die because she had no money for medical treatment.
On the way home in the hovercar, Tang Bai and Bai Zhi, two omegas, one big and one small, looked down at the defeated and depressed scene of the slums.
Tang Bai puffed up his little face and said thoughtfully: “They are so pitiful.”
Bai Zhi said nothing. This was his first time coming to the slums, and everything in front of him was shocking.
“Brother Bai Zhi, if you become a member of parliament in the future, can you help them live a good life?” Tang Bai turned his head and looked at Bai Zhi. His eyes were wet, and his eyelashes were thick and curled, showing his innocence where he was not familiar with the world, but Bai Zhi inexplicably saw consideration and scrutiny in those eyes, like an angel sent by God to judge the world.
“I will do my best.” Bai Zhi said solemnly.
“Pull the hook!” The two people’s little fingers hooked each other. Tang Bai’s thumb then touched Bai Zhi’s thumb with difficulty. He shook Bai Zhi’s hand seriously and said in a sweet voice: “Hang yourself with the hook. It won’t change for a hundred years.”
“Very good! If you go back on your word, you will become a puppy!” Tang Bai leaned his little head on Bai Zhi, “Speaking of puppies, should I let my mother get a puppy too?”
Bai Zhi was not surprised by Tang Bai’s rapid thinking. Tang Bai’s chatter suddenly changed to “But I think human cubs are also very cute. Maybe I can raise them secretly.”
Bai Zhi: “?”
“I want to raise Xie Ruheng.” Under Bai Zhi’s puzzled gaze, Tang Bai followed the flow and said, “Well, it’s what you adults like to call targeted poverty alleviation.”
Bai Zhi: “???”
….
Xie Ruheng had a big meal today because after his father won in the ring, a generous spectator gave him a large reward. His mother was very happy and thus cooked dinner carefully.
“Come on, Ruheng, eat more.” His mother said softly: “You have to study hard in school, you know? Then when you grow up, you can work in a noble family! The noble family is very beautiful, with gardens, fountains, even the toilet smells better than our room, and the aristocratic gentleman will prepare a room for you, a big room, a servant’s room…”
Xie Ruheng subconsciously thought of the aristocratic young master who smiled at him, even wearing a mask couldn’t hide his beauty, as delicate as a porcelain doll.
Xie Ruheng had never seen such a good-looking person before, such that he could see that they didn’t seem to be from the same world.
Could he work as a servant in that young master’s house in the future?
But he didn’t even know the young master’s name or where he lived…
Xie Ruheng turned on his optical brain after dinner. The optical brain he used was not a child optical brain, but an adult optical brain. This optical brain was obtained by his father from the loser and he gave it directly to Xie Ruheng for use.
[Congratulations on becoming a closed beta user of “Miracle Mecha Builder Travels the World”! Come and play the game!]
A message alert appeared out of nowhere. It looked a lot like a viral advertisement. Xie Ruheng originally didn’t want to pay attention to it, but the message seemed to have invaded his optical brain like a robber.
Xie Ruheng: “…” I don’t have a choice.
Before sending the optical computer for repair, Xie Ruheng chose to enter the game with the mentality of breaking the pot. But he saw a well-made game for children that exceeded his expectations.
The background music of the game was the most classic children’s animation “Pig Mecha Master”. The colors of the game were bright and vivid, and the NPC who guided the novices looked surprisingly similar to the young aristocratic young master who he had only met once.
Xie Ruheng was stunned when he looked at the little Tang Bai, who was an NPC the size of his thumb.
“Welcome to “Miracle Mecha Builder Travels the World”. I am your instructor and will supervise you to complete the basic mecha manufacturing course.” The NPC pretended to be serious, and his voice was sweet and soft. He then held out a small fist, “Come on! Damn it!”
….
Tang Bai raised a human cub.
He devoted himself to all aspects of Xie Ruheng’s clothing, food, housing, transportation, education, entertainment, and medical care. He would give money to Xie Ruheng’s family in the form of rewards to Xie Ruheng’s father and teach Xie Ruheng various knowledge in the form of educational games.
The book said that when Xie Ruheng grew up and entered the federal military academy, he would be bullied because his knowledge reserve could not keep up. Tang Bai decided to teach Xie Ruheng well himself, and then a perfect omega would appear and blind the world!
Whenever he imagined the future like this, Tang Bai would feel a satisfaction similar to the satisfaction of designing mechas, but the sense of accomplishment gained from cultivating Xie Ruheng was even stronger.
He silently protected Xie Ruheng like a long-legged uncle…oh no, a short-legged uncle. Under his behavior of throwing coins, Xie Ruheng’s mother defeated the disease. But his interest still drove him to become the “Rat” of the underground arena.
When Tang Bai received the first performance of “Rat” recorded in the underground arena, he couldn’t recognize that it was Xie Ruheng for a while.
The fourteen-year-old Xie Ruheng had a superior profile and thick eyebrows. He knelt on the chest of a tall alpha. The dagger in his hand dug deeply into the opponent’s shoulder. Blood spattered onto half of his face, painting the pale face with bright colors – like roses full of blood.
But this time, the “Rat” was very gentle. This kind of gentleness was relative to his image in the novel. He would be merciful and would stop at the point, instead of fighting for his life until death like in the book.
Tang Bai gave “Rat” a high reward. In Tang Bai’s mind, Xie Ruheng would be admitted to the Federal Military Academy and become the perfect light of omegas. He calculated that Xie Ruheng would enter the Federal Military Academy in almost four years. He would then meet Xie Ruheng by chance at the Federal Military Academy!
Fourteen-year-old Tang Bai became happier the more he thought about it. The next day when he was lying on the bed and fast asleep, the curtains were opened by a pair of hands, and the bright sunlight poured into Tang Bai’s bedroom and fell on Tang Bai, as if coating Tang Bai with a layer of fluffy edges.
A clear and gentle male voice then sounded: “Young master, it’s time for you to get up.”
Tang Bai, who was half asleep, wrinkled his nose and hummed: “Let me sleep a little longer.”
“The dance teacher will come to teach at ten o’clock this morning. You still need one hour to prepare.”
Tang Bai let out a long yawn, opened his eyes with his dull hair sticking up on his head, and saw the handsome young man in uniform in front of him.
It was a stern and strong face, and when it wasn’t smiling, it was intimidating. However, when he saw Tang Bai, he pursed his lips slightly nervously and showed a slight smile, “Hello, young master, I’m new here.”
Seeing the attendant Xie Ruheng, Tang Bai: “???”
The author has something to say:
I shouldn’t write about this world line next. After all, it would be too verbose to expand on it. Let me think about whether it is better to write about Li Songyun or Tang Tang’s pregnancy in the next chapter.
T/N: Hence proved that falling in love too early is also not good for you…🤭🤭🤭
