Chapter 1370: The Cautious Jason
The vast sea, the blue sky.
White clouds, scattered.
A ‘ship’ floated in the air, two figures stood side by side at the bow.
A man and a woman.
One in white, one in black.
The man wore all white, tall and handso, donned with a rare golden monocle from the Empire. Under the sunlight, the lens glead, giving the man a scholarly air, making him appear gentle and refined.
The woman, dressed in black, was tall with a uniquely enchanting allure. Her slightly curled long black hair cascaded down her shoulders, resembling a mandrake entwined by serpents, dangerous yet imnsely beautiful, with a fatal allure that draws one to her like moth to fla.
At this mont, the man’s attention was entirely on the woman beside him.
Even though they had been married for twenty years.
He still felt his wife was the most beautiful woman in the world.
Of course, also the best woman.
Especially when she acted a bit spoiled, it was so endearing.
Every ti, he was so excited he couldn’t control himself.
Especially now.
Their daughter, Dou Bao, who was actually a ‘third wheel’, was not around.
This kind of world for just the two of them was wonderful.
But, he wondered if Dou Bao was doing well?
Was she being bullied?
As he thought, his brows furrowed.
"What’s wrong?
Missing Dou Bao?”
Seeing her husband’s expression, the woman couldn’t help but smile.
She knew her husband too well.
He might say they wanted the world to themselves, that their daughter should have adventures, but in reality, he was worried sick.
He was a man who said one thing and thought another.
No different from when he was young.
"No.
Without experiencing storms, how could a fledgling eagle soar, I…
Alright.
I am a bit worried.”
Just as the woman expected, her husband once again began to act tough, and she didn’t expose him, just kept smiling at him.
Imdiately, the man couldn’t continue speaking.
He looked longingly at his wife.
Just in case, he had left sothing for Dou Bao.
He believed his wife had done the sa.
And surely, more ticulously than him.
"Don’t worry, Dou Bao will be fine.
Moreover…
She found a decent man.”
Crunch!
As soon as the woman finished speaking, a sound of teeth grinding was heard. Her husband was gritting his teeth, clenching his fists, and took out sothing resembling a remote control from his pocket.
"Where? Where?
Where is that bastard?
I want to obliterate him!”
The man, at this mont, had entirely lost the earlier gentlemanly deanor, veins bulging on his forehead. With the press on the remote control in his hand, one by one, objects erged from the clouds.
They appeared to be birds.
But entirely made of tal and wood.
Each ‘bird’ had sothing resembling ‘machine guns’ or ‘missiles’ on its wings.
A hundred gathered around the ‘ship’.
A dense, oppressive presence that made one’s heart race.
But what was most unsettling was, in the higher sky, there was a more terrifying shadow, looming nacingly.
Bang!
The woman playfully slapped her husband’s back.
"You’re too old to ss around, he’s a good kid. Besides loving to eat, he doesn’t have many flaws, especially his character, which makes him a perfect match for Dou Bao.”
The woman said softly.
"Character? What good is that!
Is he handso?
More handso than ?
Is he strong?
Stronger than ?”
The man blustered.
"My husband is certainly the most handso.
Of course, he’s not as good as you.
As for strength… at his age, it’s acceptable.
But, most importantly, it’s about character!
You know Dou Bao, she keeps everything to herself, always likes to be alone. I even thought she’d end up alone for life.”
The woman sighed.
The man also showed a mont of sadness.
Dou Bao is their daughter, naturally they love her dearly.
Unfortunately, so things just don’t go as planned.
Twenty years ago, after their marriage, the two road the world, earning a great reputation, and naturally caught the attention of interested parties.
Among them, one guy was really difficult to deal with.
Neither he nor his wife had a good temper.
They directly clashed with the opponent several tis.
Both sides won and lost, each relying on their strengths, and neither could defeat the other.
But the last ti, he didn’t even know his wife was pregnant.
Engaging in a fierce battle with that jerk not only disturbed the fetal energy, but also slightly affected the unborn Dou Bao, causing a minor personality flaw, which under normal circumstances, wasn’t an issue.
But at tis, it would inadvertently show through.
He and his wife did everything they could, but couldn’t heal it.
This had beco a thorn in their hearts.
This so-called world for two was also about finding dicine for Dou Bao.
"Seeing that kid hasn’t wronged Dou Bao, I’ll let him go for now.”
As the man said this, he pressed on the remote control again.
The hundreds of giant birds and the shadow in the higher sky retreated into the clouds.
Then, Dou Bao’s father sheepishly scratched his head.
"How’s Dou Bao lately?”
As a father, he believed he should be more authoritative, so even when asking the child’s mother, he felt a bit embarrassed.
But if he didn’t ask, he’d feel uncomfortable.
"Very good, her emotions haven’t disappeared again.
Keeping a sense of joy and delight.
Except when facing so special things… but, that’s also a good thing, at least there are emotions.”
