I Married a Commander and Became a Galaxy Star

Chapter 96: Chapter 94: Bizarre Movement, Terrifying Strength

The man with the thick chain had never been provoked by a woman like this before, and he instantly felt utterly disgraced. Flying into a shameful rage, he cursed vulgarly, ”You stupid bitch! Since you’re so desperate for a man’s touch, I’ll give you exactly what you’re begging for today!”

With that, eyes wide with fury, he raised a hand to slap Shu Yao across the face.

Shu Yao grabbed a handful of the fur at the front of his neck, yanked him upward with force, and slammed him down! The man only felt his vision blur and his neck tighten. The next second, his feet left the ground. His entire body was flipped over by a tremendous force, and with a heavy THUD, his back smashed solidly against the ground.

The man was slammed into a daze. Shu Yao stepped on one of his palms, her other hand plunging into the thick fur on his neck to seize his throat. A cold, dark smile danced in her pitch-black eyes.

”What I’m best at dealing with is disobedient Beastmen!”

Having effortlessly overturned a man much taller and larger than herself in a single move, her breathing wasn’t disturbed in the slightest. The man with the thick chain quickly lost all ability to resist. Under the increasingly intense suffocation, his entire face swelled and turned a purplish-red.

He was actually subdued by a human woman! And she had only used one move!

The man stared at her, the disbelief in his eyes turning into terror. He couldn’t fathom what kind of monster he had just provoked!

Seeing his father thrown into such a miserable state, Xiao Pang stood frozen in panic.

Xiao Juzi was incredibly smug now. He gave a milky snort and boasted arrogantly, ”My mom can beat ten of guys like your dad!”

Qin Shiwei arrived in a Flying Machine. From inside the cabin, he had witnessed the scene of the thick-chained man being flipped over single-handedly by his wife. He wasn’t surprised. After all, he had experienced his wife’s eerie combat skills firsthand.

Looking up the man’s identity, Qin Shiwei realized he was the right-hand man of the Deputy Commander of the Third District. No wonder he was so fearless at first! Clearly, his luck was terrible. He thought he had run into a weak, defenseless woman who was easy to bully, never expecting her to be a hidden master.

Shu Yao stood up, dusted off her hands, and locked her gaze on a familiar electronic eye hovering above. As soon as she looked over, the electronic eye seemed to flinch. It adjusted its direction several times within a single second, completely at a loss for where to look. Finally, under Shu Yao’s icy, heavily warning glare, it fled in a panic.

Shu Yao frowned. His Majesty the Emperor was certainly paying a lot of attention to her son, and it gave her a very bad feeling.

Clutching his neck, the man with the thick chain scrambled to his feet. Pulling his son Xiao Pang aside, he glared fixedly at Shu Yao. ”Who exactly are you?!”

Shu Yao gave him an indifferent glance, her eyes seeming to say: ”As if you deserve to know?”

Qin Shiwei looked coldly at the man with the thick chain and spoke in an aloof tone. ”Li Daxiong, Fourth-level Sergeant Major of the Third District. During garrison duty, you left your post without permission to pick quarrels and provoke trouble in Zone One. You are demoted by one rank to serve as a warning to others.”

The man panicked, yet he was extremely defiant. ”What right do you have—”

Meeting Qin Shiwei’s icy gaze, his voice abruptly cut off. The words he was about to say and the anger he wanted to vent suddenly felt stuck in his throat. Strangely enough, even though the man before him had an ordinary appearance, he gave off an exceptionally terrifying aura!

Qin Shiwei continued in a flat, monotone voice, ”The punishment takes effect immediately.”

The moment he finished speaking, Li Daxiong received a notification on his Light Brain that he had been demoted from a Fourth-level Sergeant Major to a Senior Soldier. The notification even bore the official stamp of Military Department One.

Li Daxiong’s eyes instantly went wide. Why was he so unlucky today? Not only had he run into a woman with terrifying, monster-like strength, but this plain-looking man was actually an officer from Military Department One?! He immediately didn’t even dare to breathe too loudly. His son was still acting a bit relentless, but after Li Daxiong shot him a fierce glare, the boy quieted down significantly.

After escorting Shu Yao, her son, and the model onto the Flying Machine, Qin Shiwei seemed to feel that the previous punishment was too light. He turned back to Li Daxiong. ”Sergeant Li, write a ten-thousand-word report when you return. Submit it to Military Department One within twenty-four hours. I hope you truly repent.”

Li Daxiong didn’t dare to argue; he could only lower his head and accept it.

The Flying Machine landed at Shu’s house. Xiao Juzi called his grandmother and the butler robot over to help move the model.

While they were busy, Shu Yao turned to Qin Shiwei. ”Thank His Majesty for me when you go back. The child really likes the gift he sent.”

However, Qin Shiwei could tell she wasn’t happy. Roughly guessing what was causing her displeasure, he said softly, ”Currently, no one in the Imperial Family knows about the child except for me and His Majesty.”

In fact, the Emperor was the very first person to know that Xiao Juzi possessed Imperial Family blood.

”I felt very uncomfortable when he secretly met with Xiao Juzi in private at the celebration banquet last time,” Shu Yao said bluntly. ”I’m not telling you this to complain. I just want to make it clear that giving Xiao Juzi a stable and happy childhood is extremely important to me!”

Once their son was dragged into the affairs of the Imperial Family, no one could guarantee if he would still have the peaceful life he enjoyed now.

”He is our son, not a pawn for certain people to consolidate their imperial power!” Shu Yao emphasized. The one she truly feared wasn’t the Emperor, but the woman beside him—Empress Yudola! Yudola had been married into the Imperial Family for many years without bearing an heir. Once she learned of Xiao Juzi’s existence, who knew what she might do?

”Yaoyao,” Qin Shiwei assured her. ”I won’t let anyone take away what belongs to you.” His dark green eyes seemed almost fragile as he continued, ”I also hope... that your decision to marry me wasn’t solely because of the child...”

He knew very well that Shu Yao legalizing their relationship was largely to give Xiao Juzi a complete family.

”Aside from you, I’ve never considered letting any other man become Xiao Juzi’s father.”

Shu Yao’s words acted as the perfect reassurance. The trace of anxiety in Qin Shiwei’s eyes quietly vanished. A hint of joy briefly surfaced, only to be quickly submerged by a sense of defeat. How could he let his emotions be so easily swayed by the woman in front of him?

Shu Yao hooked a finger around one of his meticulously fastened, exquisite buttons, giving it a gentle tug to pull him closer.

”When it comes to anything related to you, our son doesn’t really listen to me. You’ll just have to work harder.” She gave the man a reproachful look. ”Do you plan to be ’Mr. Annoying’ to him forever?”

Thinking about the brat’s attitude toward him, Qin Shiwei also felt somewhat troubled. This was his first time being a father. Having been absent since the child was in his mother’s belly, he had no idea how to coax a kid. Furthermore, Xiao Juzi was precocious. Although he relied heavily on his mother, he wasn’t ignorant and clueless like other toddlers his age. That little head of his was full of big ideas.

”Give me a little more time,” Qin Shiwei said. He couldn’t just keep getting bossed around by a little cub forever!

Having finished his task, Xiao Juzi came running over, his little feet going PATTER-PATTER. He shot the man a tiger-like glare, then grabbed Shu Yao’s pant leg and tugged her backward. ”Mommy, let’s go home~”

Shu Yao smiled. ”Then say goodbye to your dad.”

”Goodbye, Mr. Annoying!” He just absolutely refused to call him Dad.

Seeing Shu Yao mouth the words, ”See you tonight,” Qin Shiwei finally broke into a gentle smile.
