Chapter 486: Chapter 236: Shangguan Ruiqi’s Calamity

At this time, it was dinner time at the Su Mansion. Changxi calmly helped Su Mo with chopping vegetables and handing over plates, "The young masters had a tough training today. Dessert after dinner can be increased by ten percent as encouragement... Also, the master will be back in a few days."

Su Mo muttered, "Changxi, I remember you didn’t use to be like this. Why did you switch character systems? I preferred the more whimsical, leg-clinging, crying Changxi... Now you’re so serious..."

Changxi’s hand paused slightly, and he said softly, "If you like, I can switch personalities in private later..."

As a qualified butler, he naturally couldn’t be as playful and whimsical as Su Mo... This realization dawned on Changxi when Su Jiameng the master treated him as her right-hand man, even entrusting the young masters to his care.

"Alright, it’s settled then." Su Mo was beaming with a full smile, and the bud atop her head blossomed, indicating her good mood.

Seeing only three little ones eating at the table, Changxi sighed quietly, his right hand involuntarily touching his chest.

This is where a human’s heart is located, and also where his energy source is stored. As a robot, these energies support his functions. During the day, he functioned like a human, but at night he revealed his robotic nature, needing to recharge.

But the last time the master returned, she gave him something like a diamond called a Nascent Stone. It contained something he was extremely familiar with, the energy from Ximolai Ore, and the energy contained within it was unimaginably large!

As a highly advanced autonomous intelligent robot, he used high-grade energy similar to Ximolai Ore. However, his previous energy reserves had long been depleted, so he functioned like a regular robot by recharging to keep himself active.

The Nascent Stone given by the master could roughly support his operations for tens of thousands of years! Besides him, Su Mo also had one.

Su Jiameng the master probably doesn’t know this yet, what such things mean to an autonomous intelligent robot with human-like thinking, even more intelligent than humans. However, the other party doesn’t need to know, as long as he knows it in his heart.

Human lifespan is indeed too short for him! Changxi’s current wish is just to see the master and the young masters live healthily and long lives, and even see their descendants being active in this world... Until the energy of the Nascent Stone in his chest runs out, falling into sleep again, waiting for the next master’s arrival...

"Uncle Changxi, when will mom come back?" Huaifeng asked while eating his dessert, comfortably hugging a cushion on the sofa, watching a currently popular melodrama, "The entrance exam is coming up, I’m a bit nervous..."

"Young master need not worry, so-called exams are merely simple tests of mentality and physical ability, as well as assessments of basic knowledge. With young master’s capabilities, topping the list to enter the school is very straightforward." Changxi showed rare warmth.

"Topping the list is impossible, with big brother also taking the exam..." Huaifeng scratched his head and then snapped back, "That’s not right, Uncle Changxi hasn’t answered my question, when will mom come back?"

"Very soon, she’ll definitely be there on the day of the exam!" Changxi didn’t have a definite answer, but he said so nevertheless.

After coaxing the little ones to return to their rooms to sleep, Changxi and Su Mo shared the patrolling and guarding duties. Su Mo protected the three children, while he went to check on Qianhe lying in the Nutrient Liquid, recorded the data, and then organized the recent actions of the Shangguan Family.

Compared to the tranquility of the Su Mansion, the Shangguan Family had been experiencing constant turmoil lately. Known for their gentle way of handling affairs, and intentions of passing the leadership to the eldest son, the family unexpectedly acted against their own son! Of course, these truths wouldn’t be known to outsiders, and even the well-informed would only know that some branches of the Shangguan Family had united against the direct line, Shangguan Ruiqi.

This was just the prelude to the storm. Soon it was revealed that Shangguan Ruiqi had betrayed the family, intending to collude with external traitors to overthrow the family. His father, with a look of reluctance, abolished his title as the eldest son and expelled him from the family. As for Shangguan Ruiqi’s position in the Military Department, suppressed by opposing forces, it was taken over by his ascending younger brother, Shangguan Ruolin...

The most fatal blow came from the Military Department’s announcement, declaring that Shangguan Ruiqi colluded with alien races, leaked military secrets, causing immense damage to the Alliance. He was to be escorted to a military tribunal for his final trial!

Of course, the day after the announcement was made, Shangguan Ruiqi successfully broke out of jail, and his whereabouts became unknown, bringing an indescribable tense atmosphere to the Qiming Star... Liken the calm before a storm...

No one knew that it was his father who knocked Shangguan Ruiqi from heaven to hell overnight! Naturally, the real Shangguan Ruiqi had died a hundred years ago, and now he was just a monster bearing someone else’s identity!

"Couldn’t kill him directly, and let him escape... really releasing a tiger back to the mountain, leaving future trouble, digging one’s own grave..." Changxi said blandly, turning off the computer, then began searching for Shangguan Ruiqi’s whereabouts in his own way...

In the golden autumn of September, Qiming Star welcomed a new class of students, with the Elementary Department filled with talented children from all over the Xilena Star System and their parents eager to see them succeed. Changxi and Su Mo, dressed like two genuine humans, took the two little ones to the school exam. Su Mo rarely removed the flowers atop her head, reducing the whimsical vibe, and adding a touch of goddess-like aura.

As for Qianhe, who held the name Su Qianhe on the household registry, she naturally followed her uncle, and the group traveled together.

"Something is going to happen today, remember to protect Miss Qianhe..." Changxi gave Qian Chen a faint warning. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to recommend it and vote for it on qidian.com. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please read at m.qidian.com.)
