"Buzz...buzz..." The incoming call continued to ring.
Whose call is it? Aren't you going to answer it?
Qi Min glanced at the numbers on the personal terminal and looked at Ling Yi curiously.
Ling Yi glanced at Qi Min, then suddenly seemed to remember something. His eyes flickered, and he answered Qi Min's question.
"It's my father calling. Does the Lord want to hear it?"
Looking at the expression on his face, Qi Min spoke decisively, uttering a single word.
"miss you!"
"Then, Your Majesty, you must not speak later."
Seeing Qi Min nod, Ling Yi then answered the call and turned on speakerphone.
"Ling Yi! Why did it take you so long to answer?! You... ... never mind, just agree now, and then go tell your adjutant, do you hear me?!"
Ling Zhenhao first scolded him a few times before magnanimously stating his demands, completely unaware that no sound came from the other end of the call after it was connected.
"........."
Ling Yi listened quietly, without showing any intention of responding.
Qi Min, standing to the side, frowned slightly, a hint of dissatisfaction on his face. He moved his lips but remained silent, adhering to Ling Yi's request.
"Ling Yi? Did you hear what I said? Why aren't you saying anything?"
Ling Zhenhao waited for a while, then became impatient and urged him again.
"I heard it, but it won't work."
Ling Yi spoke calmly, his voice steady, as if he didn't care about the impoliteness in Ling Zhenhao's words. After speaking, he took off his personal computer and placed it aside, quietly waiting for something.
As expected, Ling Zhenhao flew into a rage upon hearing his refusal, launching into a barrage of vile insults and even threatening Ling Yi with his father, Lin Feng.
Unlike Ling Yi's indifferent expression, Qi Min frowned as if he was enduring something, and suddenly hung up the phone, only then did Ling Zhenhao's harsh insults come to an abrupt end.
Ling Yi watched Qi Min's actions without saying anything, but the coldness hidden in his eyes clearly dissipated somewhat.
"Speaking of which, your female father... I don't think I've met him yet. When will you take me to meet him?"
Qi Min seemed to suddenly remember something and asked Ling Yi about it, but refused to mention the phone call from earlier.
When Ling Yi heard Qi Min's words, he looked at him with some confusion, as if he didn't understand why Qi Min would suddenly ask this question.
"Master, do you wish to see my female father? Why?"
Ling Yi observed the expression on Qi Min's face, trying to guess the reason why Qi Min said that.
He thought Qi Min would ask him something, but he didn't expect him to suddenly say something completely unrelated to what Ling Zhenhao had said.
"There are some things I'd like to ask him..."
Qi Min calmly stated that he did not give a specific reason.
“But the male doesn’t know my female father. Instead of asking him, you might as well ask me directly.”
After Ling Yi finished speaking, before Qi Min could reply, the notification sound from the quantum computer rang again.
Ling Yi reached out and took it. After examining it, his expression, which had eased slightly, turned cold again. His eyes regained their coldness, his fingers gripping the quantum computer tightened slightly, and his gaze darkened.
Seeing him like this, Qi Min felt even more displeased, but she didn't curiously go over to take a look.
Considering the gender inequality in this world, and Ling Zhenhao's earlier threat to him using Ling Yi's female father as leverage,
Qi Min could guess what the messages sent were about after a little thought.
It's nothing more than a domestic abuser using photos or other things that might soften a child's heart to threaten them when they grow up and become disobedient, using the child's mother to make the child soften and compromise.
This kind of thing was commonplace even in the past news reports. Some scumbags would use their wives to support themselves after marriage, and then use their children to support themselves in their old age.
What do you do when the child is unwilling? Of course, you take someone they care about as a hostage, such as the child's mother.
Unless the child can harden their heart, or the mother completely breaks away, this cycle will never stop.
"Buzz..." The phone rang again.
"My lord, I'd like to go upstairs first..."
Ling Yi looked at Qi Min, indicating that he needed to take the call privately.
"Go ahead, I'll tidy up and prepare dinner while I'm at it. We can talk about anything else after you've taken care of it."
Oh right, I remember that according to the rules, a female ruler only needs to satisfy the demands of her male ruler.
As for the other males, you can ignore any demands or conditions they make; you have complete autonomy in your choice, right?
Qi Min expressed his understanding, and then subtly conveyed his own meaning.
Ling Yi's initial anger over the information subsided instantly because of what Qi Min meant.
"Yes, the lord remembers correctly."
"Then go ahead, I'll wait for you to come down."
Qi Min smiled gently after receiving Ling Yi's reply, then lowered his head and began to tidy up the unfinished robot and various parts on the ground.
After Ling Yi went upstairs to his study, he answered the phone just before the second call was about to end.
As soon as the call connected, Ling Zhenhao's angry shouts came from the personal terminal.
Ling Yi let him talk without replying. The coldness and slight anger he had shown in front of Qi Min had long since disappeared, and his face was now completely calm.
Just as Qi Min had guessed, those messages were indeed sent by Ling Zhenhao to Ling Yi as a threat after he had vented his anger on Lin Feng.
Ling Yi had originally wondered what Qi Min's reaction would be after listening to the phone call or seeing the photos.
Was it a question tinged with doubt, a calm indifference, or perhaps a reproach for his lack of understanding?
But Qi Min's series of reactions completely exceeded his expectations.
Moreover, judging from Qi Min's expression and the meaning behind his words, it seemed that he wanted to make decisions for him, or even help his father.
Ling Yi was already used to Ling Zhenhao's actions of threatening him with Lin Feng. Such things had been happening all his life, and he was used to it.
When he was young, Ling Zhenhao only took pleasure in torturing Lin Feng.
After he grew a little older, left the Ling family, joined the military, and began to earn military merits,
Ling Zhenhao's abuse gradually became a bargaining chip to blackmail Ling Yi.
Ling Yi felt both angry and concerned about his father, who was almost always covered in injuries. As a child, he didn't understand...
He just felt that it was fine if Ling Zhenhao didn't like him; after all, he was just a female insect, not a male.
But why is it that his biological father, who gave birth to him, is equally indifferent and uncaring towards him?
Ling Yi had once questioned Lin Feng about why he had given birth to him, but Lin Feng just stared at him blankly and did not respond.
He went to question Ling Zhenhao again, who had just returned home from the banquet.
After hearing his question, Ling Zhenhao just laughed heartily, as if praising his ignorance and courage to question him, and then gave him a beating that left him with blood gushing from his mouth.
Ling Yi's question still remains unanswered...
