A Mom in a Man's Body

The Evil God stood still, staring at Wuma Xiu's profile.

Those unfathomable eyes reflected the starlight.

It also reflects the gentle curve of Goddess of Beauty's lips when she mentions God of Wine, a curve she herself was unaware of.

The Evil God couldn't quite describe the feeling in his heart.

I was both happy and jealous.

Two completely opposite emotions mingled together, like the strongest vintage wine in the Divine Realm being spilled.

To his delight, he hadn't seen the Goddess of Beauty display such a gentle expression in a long time.

What I envy is that this tenderness isn't meant for him.

God of Wine has a special relationship with Goddess of Beauty.

This fact was known long, long ago, long before the Evil God first saw them.

Thinking back on it now, it was like stabbing him in the heart again.

Fortunately, the other person is still asleep.

The relationship between Goddess of Beauty and God of Wine.

Unlike herself and the Goddess of Beauty.

She was also different from the countless suitors of the Goddess of Beauty.

It seemed to be a unique relationship, one that no one else could interfere with.

The feeling was just like the old saying goes.

I hate that the bright moon hangs high in the sky, yet it doesn't shine on me alone.

In the end, the Evil God left.

But they were incredibly reluctant to leave.

"What! What do you mean you're going to do?"

The blue-haired man in military uniform spoke with a voice that nearly lifted the ceiling of the entire office. He braced his hands on the desk, his usually composed face now filled with disbelief.

And directly in front of his sonic attack.

A dark-haired boy was covering his ears with his hands. He leaned back in his chair with a blank expression, trying to use the tilt of the chair to avoid the storm.

"Major General, explain yourself clearly! And don't cover your ears!"

The blue-haired man slammed his hand on the table.

"Although you are now Major General, I am your adjutant! Your adjutant! I have the right and the obligation to lodge a strong protest against your irresponsible behavior!"

This blue-haired officer looked like he was about to explode.

It was Carl.

That's the adjutant Si Lin mentioned, the one who was more meddlesome than a maid.

Initially, the Federation Military Department wanted to "assist" this young, promising, but overly unruly Major General.

Carl was specially appointed as his adjutant.

This arrangement proved to be absolutely correct.

Since Carl came along, Si Lin has at least learned to notify his adjutant before causing trouble.

Instead of waiting for the military to call Carl with an accountability call, Carl only then learned from the news what earth-shattering thing his Major General had done.

Of course, it was merely a "notification".

But this time...

What Si Lin said to Carl after returning clearly went far beyond what Carl could accept as a mere "notification".

The Major General returned and announced his intention to resign from his position Federation Major General.

He then went back to inherit the family business that he had refused to take over for ten years.

Carl took three deep breaths, trying to lower his blood pressure.

First failure.

The second failure.

After the Nth attempt, I chose to give up.

Carl walked around the desk and stood in front of Si Lin.

He looked down at the black-haired boy who was still covering his ears.

Oh no, my temper is flaring up again.

Carl took a deep breath and Shengsheng suppressed the urge to grab his Major General's ear and roar at him.

This is extremely disrespectful!

"Major General, you had better explain the whole story to me within three minutes. And also..."

Carl paused, a deeper emotion than anger surging in his blue eyes.

Even if you want to resign, don't even think about getting rid of me.

Having followed Si Lin for so many years, Carl had long since decided that this was the person he wanted to be.

He Carl spent eighteen years in the military.

I've seen at least eight hundred, if not a thousand, officers.

But in his eyes...

Compared to his own Major General, everyone else was mediocre.

She's not even worthy to carry Si Lin's shoes.

So he didn't go anywhere.

All that talk about future prospects, stability, and the possibility of rising through the ranks to higher positions if you stay in the Federation.

Si Lin finally took his hands off his ears.

The other person's last words made him realize that the nature of the conversation had changed.

"You're going to come with me?"

"What, you're not allowed?" Carl retorted.

"Then make your decision after I've finished speaking."

Si Lin began to confess to Carl.

Even after confessing, Carl was still filled with turmoil.

He never expected that his Major General would actually be a member of the Jade Qilin Clan.

The legendary Jade Qilin Clan, blessed by the Gods and possessing wealth beyond measure, had its Major General flee for ten years simply because he didn't want to inherit the position of young Clan Leader.

What kind of melodramatic plot is this?

He had only ever seen it in prime-time family dramas on the Star Network.

"But are you really going to give up everything here in the Federation and come back to my home planet with me?"

Si Lin knew better than anyone how much Carl had sacrificed for the Federation Military Department.

In eighteen years, he rose from the lowest-ranking clerk to a Major General adjutant.

Military medals covered half a wall.

If you persevere for a few more years, you'll be able to get promoted steadily.

The Jade Qilin Clan was indeed wealthy.

But for someone like Carl, who was used to a military career, leaving the Federation Military Department meant wiping out all the achievements of the past eighteen years.

Carl's answer to this was just one word.

"Right."

In his eyes, his Major General was practically a useless little brat when it came to taking care of himself. Once he was no longer there to look after him, his personal adjutant, he probably could only barely survive on tasteless nutritional supplements for three meals a day.

Moreover, their own Major General had run away without telling anyone.

Returning to the clan now will inevitably stir up old turmoil.

How would the Jade Qilin Clan members view him? Would they harbor resentment because of past events, or even secretly hold a grudge?

Carl couldn't help but feel worried.

What will happen when his Major General is all alone and helpless?

Carl couldn't bear the thought of it.

Admittedly, our Major General is occasionally mischievous and playful, and sometimes acts somewhat arbitrarily.

But he is a kind person at heart.

My departure back then was largely an impulsive act.

That's why he chose to escape.

Who hasn't made mistakes or done a few reckless things when they were young and impetuous?

Moreover, judging by the lifespan of the Jade Qilin Clan, although ten years have passed...

But his Major General is still just a child.

So what if a child is a little willful sometimes?

Carl managed to calm himself down.

He thought he was probably destined to be a male mother.

Si Lin said, "Alright, then get ready. We're leaving today."

He raised his hand and turned on the Lightbrain. The statement issued by the Jade Qilin Clan was projected into the air between the two of them, with the date at the end of the announcement prominently marked by a pale golden halo.

It will be the day after tomorrow.

The planet they are currently on is exactly one day's flight time from his home planet.

It's best to leave now.

In case of any unexpected events, they will still have time to deal with them.
