As they conversed, they arrived in the living room. The sight of Lin Fu left everyone in shock, all eyes incredulously fixated on her black hair, as if they had seen a ghost.
"How..." Theresa rubbed her eyes.
Lin Qingfeng’s eyes looked as though they were about to pop out.
Even Ji Mian, the doctor, stared in astonishnt, then thought of sothing, took a deep breath, and began to tremble uncontrollably.
Lin Cheng’s gaze lingered profoundly on his niece’s hair before turning to Fu Xing, a faint smile playing at the corners of his mouth for a long while, "Interesting, very interesting."
It had been a long ti since he had t such a formidable opponent.
"Uncle."
Upon seeing Lin Cheng, Lin Fu rushed over with surprise, throwing herself into Lin Cheng’s arms and cooing, "Uncle, I missed you so much! Where have you been? Why didn’t you co to see ?"
Lin Cheng’s body stiffened on the spot, and after a long while, his right hand fell listlessly onto Lin Fu’s back, gently patting her.
"Well, am I not here to take you back ho?"
This version of Ah Foo, he hadn’t seen in a whole ten years. He rembered how the little princess used to love being spoiled as a child, always sticking close to him, urging him to tell her stories of interstellar treasure hunts.
Back then, she truly was the carefree little princess.
Everyone cast doubting, astonished glances at Duke Fuxing, secretly wondering, what exactly had Duke Fuxing done?
Why did it seem like Lin Fu had beco a different person after just one sleep?
Even her hair color had changed?
Huh? Just one sleep? Could it be...
It really was because of sleep...
Now everyone’s thoughts inevitably took a mischievous turn. The initial doubt transford into curiosity and amazent. Had it not been for their respect for Duke Fuxing’s status, they’d have already started making playful, probing remarks with winks and nudges.
Everyone ate dinner absentmindedly.
After dinner, as they settled back into the living room, Lin Cheng finally spoke, "You’ve had your fun, it’s ti to co back with . There’s a lot to handle back ho."
"I’m not going back."
Lin Fu’s tone was determined. Although everyone had anticipated this, they were still surprised.
At the space transit station, she had been uncertain! And everyone present could tell that she had previously decided on returning to the Eternal City.
"Lin Fu, have you lost your mory?" Ever since the conflict arose between Duke Fuxing’s and Lin Cheng’s factions over whose side Lin Fu should take, turning Xia Huangyu into a pitiable nobody, Xia Huangyu had seldom spoken. But this ti, he couldn’t hold back, bravely voicing his thoughts despite knowing it might offend Duke Fuxing.
"Didn’t you decide not to return to Capital Star before?" Xia Huangyu tried to ignore the oppressive presence beside him.
Faced with the ntion of mory loss, Lin Fu fell into contemplation for a mont before logically stating, "I know you’re worried about , but now that my hair has turned black again, I’m not afraid of causing trouble back on Capital Star."
"Uh..." Don’t you realize what’s wrong? It’s only the hair that changed?
Hair dye is a wonderful thing, invented by humans thousands of years ago.
It’s your heart that changed!
Xia Huangyu wanted to say more, but the sense of danger beside him grew stronger. He feared saying more might lead to him being thrown into space on the way back.
"What you said makes sense. I was really reluctant to leave you, but now it’s good, we can go back together."
"Mhm!" Lin Fu nodded slightly and then turned to look at Ingrid, Jon, and Theresa, her red lips curving up, "Where’s Clive? And the three major prisoner leaders he subdued? Where have they gone?"
