Fast Travel: Endangered Pup Rescue Project

Chapter 471 The Interstellar Pirate’s Mother

Ling Chengrong just settled down in Wuxing. He couldn't see Song Xia and Song Ye, so he moved around. The most visited places were the tavern, where he and the tavern owner inquired about the past of mother and son over the years. It was the orphanage where Song Ye once stayed and often volunteered there.

When Song Xia learned the news, she still couldn't believe it because she couldn't imagine what Ling Chengrong, the former top expert in the Federation and the marshal of the First Army, would be like taking care of those children.

Song Ye had already gone to another star field. It was the new area she had decided on for the New Deal. Many pirates had already moved there. Now that a new system was being formed, Song Ye and his senior brothers were so busy that they couldn't even touch the ground.

When she had a rare chance, Song Xia decided to take a look herself. Unexpectedly, Ling Chengrong actually did a good job. The children under his care were also very well-behaved and obedient.

"You're here." Ling Chengrong smiled at her, and then his hair was pulled by another naughty child, and he had to tilt his head to save himself.

Song Xia sat down next to him: "I can't tell you are still so patient."

"People have to learn to grow and change."

"Don't you find it annoying?" Children are not all angels. Sometimes one child can drive you crazy, let alone a group of children.

"Occasionally, but I feel relieved when I think about how much they can understand at just such an age."

"Are you going to wait like this?"

"Well, it seems there is no other better way."

Song Xia was also a frequent visitor here, and soon everyone came to play with her. The two of them had no time to chat. Ling Chengrong occasionally glanced back. If only he had realized that he could accompany Yeer like this before.

Not long after, when it was lunch time, the two of them had another busy meal before they finished serving the children and then put them to bed.

"I heard that Ye'er and the others didn't have such good conditions at that time, and the children didn't have it so easy."

"Yes." Song Xia nodded truthfully, "At that time, most children did not have enough to eat. In order to exercise their ability to compete with each other, whoever fought best would get to eat. If they lost, they would have to go hungry."

"Ye'er didn't like to fight with others before."

"Yes, I spent a lot of time to come to Misty Star. When I found Ye'er, he was very silent. The other children looked at him with fear. Later I heard that he almost died because of a piece of bread. Bite off a kid’s wrist.”

When Ling Chengrong heard this, he didn't feel that the child was cruel, but he felt distressed first. How hungry and how much pain must he have suffered to do such a thing? He remembered that Ye'er didn't like eating bread when he was a child, and he couldn't speak for a long time after listening to it.

“After I gained power, I slowly began to provide support to these orphanages.”

"When you were in the underground fighting arena, didn't you ever think that you wouldn't be able to get out and never see Ye'er again?"

"I thought about it, but I had no other way. You know, I was very disappointed in you at that time and felt that you had no hope at all."

Ling Chengrong laughed at himself: "I couldn't count on it at that time, and your feeling is right."

"Everything just came over."

Ling Chengrong looked at the sky, yes, you mother and son came here on their own, without relying on me at all. It is true that I was useless and I didn't care enough at the time. Now that the Federation has collapsed, the pirates seem to have a new way of survival. It seems that what they did before was of no use. Apart from making their families suffer, what else have they done?
Seeing that he didn't speak for a long time, Song Xia noticed the abnormality and sighed slowly: "You don't have to doubt yourself too much. If you hadn't been in the First Legion, there would have been more chaos within the Federation. At least you have rescued those people who were invaded by the Zerg. I I admire your selfless spirit. You put yourself last every time. Not everyone can do this.”

"But as my family, I have to make sacrifices because of my stubbornness."

"Every gain comes with sacrifice. Nothing is perfect." Song Xia's tone gradually became colder. What was she trying to teach Ling Chengrong here?
Ling Chengrong was about to say something else when Rogge came over with a frosty look on his face. It must be that the investigation over the past few days has yielded results, and then he suddenly punched Ling Chengrong.

Ling Chengrong returned it unceremoniously: "Why are you so crazy?"

"Why didn't you tell me then?"

The two of them were fighting back and forth, and Ling Chengrong took the time to yell: "You went crazy to protect Laitia at that time, so the investigation of the case naturally had to avoid you. How did I know that she told you that she was pregnant? Who made you stupid to doubt? nothing."

As if he couldn't stand the anger of being scolded, Rogge beat him even harder.

Ling Chengrong continued: "You are still so impulsive. You wanted to rob a prison for her, but when you failed, you left the military and became a pirate. Rogge, how long will you continue to be crazy? Don't think that I won't dare to arrest you now in Fog Star. "How many innocent people have been lost to you over the years?"

Rogge sneered: "Catch me if you can, and see where you can take me? Anyway, my hands are already stained with blood, and I am no less a federal marshal than you. Do you know why I want to buy your son? That's it. I want to torture him just to threaten you one day and let you experience the pain of losing a loved one."

These words successfully made Ling Chengrong angry. The person he felt most sorry for in his life was his youngest son. But Rogge actually had such thoughts before, and actually gave Ye'er a potion, and even asked Ye'er to do it for him. He eats everything in one bite and fights for food like wild animals. This is a lunatic.

"Rogg, it seems that I still don't understand you. Even if you were not deceived by Laitia back then, you would still go astray because you have a twisted personality."

"What's wrong with my twisted personality? At least I'm happy. What about you? You'll only make your loved ones suffer."

"Are you happy? You have been living a lie for half your life, Rogge. If you don't show off, you are trash."

Seeing this, Song Xia moved farther away. Now the two of them are filled with hatred, and their fighting power is incomparable. Don't be affected.

I don't know how long they fought. Both of them were too tired to move. On the surface, there was no winner. However, looking at Rogge's expression was more painful, and Ling Chengrong stared at him with eyes as cold as frost.

It's not surprising that although the Federation is gone now, what Rogge did before is very hateful in Ling Chengrong's eyes. Even if the two of them resolve their misunderstanding, they will never be able to go back to their previous studies.

Before leaving, Rogge said harshly: "Ling Chengrong, you'd better leave from Wuxing. Since it wasn't your fault, I can spare your life, but I won't let you live in my territory. "

Song Xia sighed: "Still not leaving?"

"Now besides making up for you and Ye'er, I have nothing else to do."

"We are living a good life now and don't need you to make up for anything."

"At least let me watch you from the sidelines." (End of Chapter)
