C11 My Baby Is so Amazing

"Sweetheart, who said mommy was going to leave you behind?"

Shen Qinghuang scooped Xiaobao into her arms and gave Yun Zheng a meaningful glance.

As her deputy, Yun Zheng needed only that look to grasp her intentions.

He had noticed something amiss with Xiaobao's legs right from the start.

Yet, as a mother meeting her son for the first time, even the Seven-star Great Commander of Dragon Country was understandably flustered with concern.

Yun Zheng stepped away as Shen Qinghuang held Xiaobao close and took him to a quaint children's park just outside the villa.

Those who had arranged her stay at the villa never understood her insistence on having a children's park on the grounds.

Now, it all made sense to them; the Great Commander had a child!

A child she hadn't seen since his birth.

"Baby, let's go. Mommy will take you on a little boat ride."

Carrying Xiaobao, Shen Qinghuang made her way to the small lake at the heart of the children's park.

Ten bumper boats were neatly arrayed along the water's edge.

She effortlessly opened one and settled Xiaobao inside.

"Mommy, Xiaobao wants to go over there."

Xiaobao's eyes sparkled as he fixated on the various control buttons on the co-pilot's seat.

Shen Qinghuang took a brief look and, without much thought, placed him on the co-pilot's seat.

As Xiaobao faced the array of buttons, a deep-seated thrill surged through him, a pulse from his very bloodline.

Whether it was innate skill or the release of inherited genes was unclear.

But Xiaobao quickly mastered the bumper boat's controls without asking Shen Qinghuang a single question.

"Crack! Crack! Crack!"

The sound startled Shen Qinghuang, who had been preparing to operate the boat, into a moment of stunned silence.

Was this an instinctive talent?

Suddenly, she was reminded of her mysterious pregnancy.

Could it be that the genes passed down from that man were now manifesting?

Curiosity piqued, she wondered about the identity of that man.

Who was he, and what was his status?

"Look, Mommy, it's moving! It's really moving!"

The bumper boat beneath them jolted to life.

Relying on his natural keen senses, Xiaobao had successfully started the boat using the auxiliary controls.

While bumper boats might seem like mere toys to older children, for a typical four-year-old, operating one, let alone starting it, would be quite the challenge. Yet, Xiaobao managed to do just that!

Shen Qinghuang ruffled his hair, gazing into Xiaobao's twinkling eyes. "You're so amazing, baby. You truly are my son!"

"Hehe!"

Xiaobao lifted his head, a look of triumph spreading across his face.

Mommy is praising me!

Does this mean she won't fuss over me eating too much earlier?

He moved his little hand and with a snap, hit a red button in front of him.

"Whoosh!"

The boat shot forward from its spot.

The abrupt recoil pinned him firmly to his seat.

Far from being scared, he was actually thrilled.

"Yay! The boat's flying, the boat's flying!"

Waves churned around them, and the landscape whizzed past the windows as if they were soaring through the sky.

Shen Qinghuang spent the day with Xiaobao, enjoying every attraction in the children's park. It was as though she was trying to make up for four years of missed time in one single day. Only after Xiaobao had fallen asleep peacefully in her arms did she find a moment to step away.

Once Xiaobao was settled in the villa with a caretaker, she turned to face Yun Zheng.

"Great Commander, it's the Third Young Master of the Mo family, Mo Xingyun."

A chill swept through Shen Qinghuang's beautiful eyes. "Mo Xingyun?"

"The Mo family has consolidated power with the Three Top Families of Ling City, seizing control of eighty percent of the city's industries. They're throwing a victory banquet tonight!"

A victory banquet?

The audacity to celebrate after her son's leg was crippled!

Her voice was resolute, "Gather the eighteen assassins of the Divine Phoenix Guard, and come with me to the Mo family."
