When Zi Yi got up from the bed and went down, Mrs. Lu was currently sitting on the sofa and making a phone call.

Clearly, she was calling Zi Yi’s aunts.

“Alright, let’s meet at the candy store later.”

Mrs. Lu hung up the phone and turned to look at Zi Yi with a bright smile on her face.

“Mom, good morning.”

“Good morning.”

Mrs. Lu waved for her to come over and said, “Zi Yi, come over and have a seat.”

Zi Yi walked over and sat beside her.

Mrs. Lu said, “Your Aunts and I have checked out several different types of candies and we will be headed to the shop to look at the final product. I’ll bring some for you to try when I come back and we’ll order more of the types that you like.”

Zi Yi nodded her head. “Okay!”

Just then, the housekeeper led the helpers in to serve breakfast. (Housekeeper Zhang had headed back to the other villa.)

Zi Yi thought about something and said to Mrs. Lu, “Dad will be coming home today. I wonder if Ah Jing can rush back tonight to have dinner with us.”

Mrs. Lu felt happy deep down, but she put on a front and said, “When your Father returns today, let him stay alone at the Lu Family home. Who wants him to come over for dinner?”

Zi Yi secretly laughed.

Mrs. Lu felt ashamed.

She was actually showing her temper in front of her daughter-in-law and she wondered what the young woman would think of her.

Zi Yi thought that her behavior was normal and she even deliberately hugged her arm and nodded in agreement. “That’s right. We’ll let Dad stay at home alone to reflect on his actions. Otherwise, he won’t know how he has made you angry.”

Mrs. Lu looked at Zi Yi who was siding with her and she laughed out loud.

After they finished breakfast, Zi Yi took the stack of wedding invitations addressed to the leaders of her school and left.

On the other side, in the Southern Ocean.

Second Master Lu had finally finished taking care of things here and was prepared to return to the capital in the morning.

However, he did not expect that when he had his luggage packed and was about to leave, he received news of the pirates starting a fight. At the same time, a group of unscrupulous pirates had used the captured people as meat shields. The people on their side did not dare to be rash.

The moment Third Master Lu received the report, he had rushed over with his men.

In such a situation, Second Master Lu certainly was unable to leave.

He had to stay there and take care of things.

At noon, news that Third Master Lu’s boat had been sunk was sent over.

The situation was out of control in an instant.

At the very first instance, when the news had reached the ears of those higher-ups in the capital, they had immediately responded.

At the same time, the news was also spread to Patriarch Lu.

When Patriarch Lu heard the news, his stern expression finally changed.

He revealed a murderous expression.

“Father, what should we do? If something really happened to Jianjun…”

“Shut up!”

Patriarch Lu was already vexed and he did not wish to listen to someone else saying unlucky things.

The Third Madam was even crying in front of him, which made him even more agitated.

“For the Lu Family people, if we were to perish while defending the country, it’s considered an honour. What’s there to cry about?”

Having said that, he suddenly stood up and motioned for the housekeeper. “Immediately get the car ready. I’ll make a trip to the Marshal’s.”

After the housekeeper gave him a response, he turned around and trotted over to the driver to get him to drive the car to the entrance of the courtyard.

Patriarch Lu took large strides towards the door.

Not long after, Zi Yi also received Lu Jingye’s phone call.

He had told her about the situation.

Zi Yi furrowed her brows after hearing the news. “If Dad is unable to return, Mom will definitely be disappointed.”

What’s more, the situation was rather serious. Third Master Lu’s boat had been sunk and for sure, her Dad would not be able to leave.

At the thought of this, Zi Yi got angry.

“These people insist on making trouble near my wedding date. If I don’t let them suffer, they will really think that we have no one to subdue them.”

“Yiyi, what are you planning to do? My Father and I will think of something here. Don’t be rash.”

Lu Jingye was worried that Zi Yi would act rashly.

Zi Yi assured him. “I won’t be impulsive.”

After hanging up the phone, she gave Leader Tang a call.

“I’ll help you catch the pirates in exchange for my Dad coming home.”

Leader Tang immediately had her come meet with him at the state office.

The two of them conversed for more than an hour in the office and when they came out, Leader Tang had an unconcealable excitement in his eyes.

“Little Zi, go back and pack your belongings. I will personally send you to the Southern Ocean.”

Zi Yi nodded her head and set off after getting in the car.

The moment Zi Yi left, Leader Tang went to search for the Marshal.

The Marshal nodded his head after hearing from Leader Tang. “If this young lady is really that capable, she would be a talent that is hard to come by in our country. It would be good to nurture her well.”

Leader Tang thought about it and informed the Marshall about Zi Yi and Lu Jingye’s relationship.

After Marshal heard his explanation, he did not badmouth Patriarch Lu. He merely said, “If she can really bring them back from the Southern Ocean early, send a gift on my behalf during their wedding.”

“I understand.”

…

By the time Zi Yi returned, Mrs. Lu had yet to come back.

The country’s higher-ups had stopped the news from spreading and clearly, Mrs. Lu was still unaware of the situation. Zi Yi thought about it for a moment and called Mrs. Lu. She then spoke to her casually. “Mom, I miss Ah Jing. I’ll be going to visit him and we’ll come back together with Dad.”

Mrs. Lu did not expect to hear this from Zi Yi and she did not know whether to laugh or cry. “You child… Your Dad and Jingye will be coming back tonight. What are you going there for? The weather is chilly outside.”

Zi Yi acted wilfully and said, “I just want to have fun. If we can’t reach home in time today, don’t miss us too much at home.”

Mrs. Lu responded. “…You naughty child. Even if you really want to go there and play, you should wait for tomorrow. By the time you reach there, it will be dark.”

“No~ Dad will already be back home if I go there tomorrow. Ah Jing and I will help you scold Dad. Let’s see if he dares to upset you again in the future.”

Mrs. Lu felt moved and did not know whether to laugh or cry.

It was the first time Zi Yi had acted so wilfully towards her. She did not get angry and instead, was rather happy.

She thought of Zi Yi as her own daughter, one who liked to have a small temper and then act spoiled.

“Alright then, I’ll give Jianlin a call later and tell him not to rush home tonight and wait for you and Ah Jing to look for him.”

Zi Yi sweetly responded. “Okay~”

Second Master Lu definitely did not have the time to answer his phone at this juncture and Zi Yi was not worried that she might get exposed.

After hanging up the phone, she gave Lu Jingye a call.

After he heard her decision, he was silent over the phone for some time before he said out of helplessness, “Naughty girl. Discuss such things with me in the future. Otherwise, I will get angry.”

Zi Yi knew that he had said this on purpose and hastily promised him. “I will definitely inform you in advance.”

Lu Jingye responded with a hum and said, “I’ll wait for you at the Southern Ocean.”

After hanging up the call, Zi Yi headed to her underground lab to pack a box full of items. She then brought along some of the invisible robots she had created before she left.

At the same time when Zi Yi left the capital, Zhang Ying, who was close with Dou Xiangling, received a parcel.

After she opened the parcel, she realized that inside was an envelope. On the envelope, the following words were written: To: Dou Xiangling.

“Eh? Why has Teacher Dou’s parcel been sent to my place?”
