At the end of the live-stream, some people still wanted to watch, but some people were envious.

“How can Ping Ye give her the invitation?!”

In a high-end villa on Venus, a woman shouted in fury.

She was the publicly acknowledged number one in the ancient food industry. Liao Ning was just a newcomer.

She waited all night, but Ping Ye didn’t send her an invitation to the Interstellar Food Conference. Instead, he looked for Liao Ning.

Zhu Fei wanted to argue with Ping Ye, but she realized that there was no contact information for Ping Ye and his mother on her computer, so she immediately shouted at her assistant.

“Oh, my son’s invitation has been sent out already.” Mrs. Ping drank the dragon fruit she had just learned how to make yesterday. There was no anger in her voice, only surprise.

As for Zhu Fei, she looked for Mrs. Ping because she couldn’t get in contact with Ping Ye.

But she had contacted Mrs. Ping at the wrong time. Mr. Ping returned, so they could only end the call.

Zhu Fei could only give up on contacting Ping Ye’s family.

After Mrs. Ping hung up the call, she quickly brought clothes to Mr. Ping, who was furious. “Did something happen in the military?”

“Not really. Do you remember Xiao Ye’s superior before he joined the army?” Although Mr. Ping was furious, he didn’t flare up at Mrs. Ping.

“I remember. What happened to Lieutenant Zhou Ling?” Mrs. Ping was dubious.

Mr. Ping sighed. “I saw his niece today. Lieutenant Zhou has only been missing for a short time, but the servants in his residence have already begun to bully their master. She used to be such a good little girl, but now, not only is she skin and bones, but she also looks very murderous. It’s quite terrifying.”

“What’s going on?” Mrs. Ping’s heart ached when she thought of the little girl.

“That’s why I wanted to discuss it with you. Why don’t we let Xiao Ye bring her to our house?” Mr. Ping said.

He was prepared to be rejected, but Mrs. Ping agreed. “Sure.”

Ping Ye was busy working every day and could barely be seen. She was bored at home alone, so she would feel less lonely with a child around.

When Mr. Ping heard this, he held Mother Ping’s hand. “It’s been hard on you for so many years. It wasn’t easy for you to raise our child, so I wanted you to enjoy yourself in old age…”

The more he spoke, the more he felt that he had let Mrs. Ping down.

“How can I feel aggrieved?”

Mr. Ping and Mrs. Ping were still deeply in love with each other.

Only Ping Ye, who had just come down from upstairs, felt that the sight was an eyesore.

He was about to run when Mr. Ping caught him and his tone changed from gentle to stern. “Why are you running? Did you hear what we said just now?”

Was it too late for him to say that he hadn’t heard them?

Ping Ye held onto the railing in exasperation as his father roared, “If you heard us, go pick her up quickly!”

“Yes, sir.” Ping Ye straightened up and immediately went to change his clothes before rushing out the door.

“I’m moving.”

When Liao Nai heard the AI message, he suddenly stammered, “Then will I be able to find you after I go to the capital?”

The girl on the other side fell silent.

“I wonder how my new home’s construction progress is. I’ll contact you after I settle down. You have to remember that in this world, you’re the only one I can rely on,” the girl said.

Liao Nai listened silently.

Since he didn’t reply, the girl only said in a hurry, “I won’t talk to you anymore. They’re here again.” Then she ended the call.

Liao Nai came out of the bathroom with mixed emotions. He didn’t notice that the white cat was squatting at the door and watching him leave.

“Aunt,” Liao Nai called out softly while looking distracted.

Liao Ning was still checking Villain No. 2’s information. When she saw Liao Nai, she put down her work and pulled him to her side.

Liao Nai wanted to say something, but hesitated. Then, he saw Little V showing him the map to the interstellar capital.

“Xiaonai, you came at the right time. I want to discuss something with you,” Liao Ning said seriously.

Liao Nai froze, then nodded.

“I want to go to the interstellar capital. Do you want to go?”

Liao Nai’s dark eyes instantly lit up. He had the same intention. He wanted to see her.

As Liao Nai looked at his aunt, he felt a sense of determination and inspiration.

Would he be able to light up her life like his aunt lit up his?

Before that, he had to become strong enough!
