"What else can I do?"

Wuyou quickly regained her composure. After what had just happened, her face was drained of color, her brows were furrowed, and she was trying her best to endure the pain in her head.

Her petite figure sat at the head of the large hospital bed, weak, pitiful, and helpless.

The broken cup and the water splashed all over the floor seemed to belong to a different world from hers.

"Stop playing dead, get up and walk."

Faced with Verina's order, Wuyou did not struggle, but lifted the blanket and climbed off the hospital bed.

When Verina said "left," she was undoubtedly referring to returning to the orphanage.

Her headaches must be a result of the mental breakdown they often talk about.

This illness is particularly troublesome. Since it cannot be cured at this stage, it might be better to go back first.

She was certain that she possessed mental power, but using it was extremely painful.

Things should get much better after the awakening process.

The awakening ceremony, to be held by the Silver Moon Empire, is just one week away. If she misses it, she'll have to wait another two years. She has to seize this opportunity.

Seeing that she was ready, Verina glanced at her sideways and strode forward.

Wuyou's short legs couldn't keep up with her at all.

She didn't intend to force herself.

Despite her headache, Wuyou walked slowly behind, occasionally looking up to survey her surroundings and observe the interstellar situation.

Just as she expected, Verina dared not abandon her.

When Wuyou walked out of the hospital, she was waiting for her at the door of a small spaceship.

"What are you dawdling for? Do you want to die?!"

Verina reached out to grab her with extreme impatience.

Her head was still spinning, but Verina's movements were slowed down in her eyes, and she easily dodged them in the end.

Even Wuyou herself was momentarily shocked.

"You dare to hide! You lowly..."

"If you do that, I'll shout 'human trafficking!'" Pulled back to reality by the sharp voice, Wuyou spoke these words before the woman could utter her curses.

"What did you say!"

Verina stared wide-eyed in disbelief.

Is this still that weak little trash? How dare he threaten her?

Verina sneered dismissively. Did she really think she was afraid?

"It's okay if you're not afraid. I will expose your secret and your daughter's secret to the public. Your lover's wife will scare you."

Wuyou was too exhausted to stand any longer. After speaking weakly, she turned around, climbed onto the transport ship, and sat down in the innermost window seat.

Seeing that Verina hadn't moved, she turned to look at her.

"Aren't you in a hurry? Let's go."

Verina, who had been stunned by her earlier words, finally came to her senses and quickly boarded the spaceship.

On the unmanned transport ship, Verina kept glancing at Wuyou, while Wuyou turned his head to admire the scenery outside.

"How are you planning to get rid of me quietly?"

As Wuyou watched the scenery rushing past the window, her eyes gradually became unfocused. She closed her eyes to ease her discomfort.

Without waiting for Verina's reply, he continued talking to himself.

"Whether it is or not doesn't matter. When I was browsing the interstellar network before, I found a very interesting little software that was designed specifically for certain groups of people. If the content recorded on it does not receive a confirmation instruction from the owner within a day, it will be automatically sent to the designated object."

"Many dangerous workers use it to store their wills. Guess what I wrote on it and who I designated as the recipient?"

"If I ever forget to check, every journalist with a bit of fame across the galaxy will receive an explosive news story."

"Guess how much more the protagonist of the news, Mr. Mabul Delin, the younger brother of the richest man in the Silver Moon Empire, can suppress."

The girl's voice was calm, even sweet and soft.

But to Verina's ears, it sounded like a demonic sound.

"What exactly do you want?" Verina's voice trembled.

She had witnessed firsthand how ruthless Mabul Deling's wife could be; if she found out about her affair with Mabul, they would all be finished.

"I don't want anything, I just want to live well."

"It's because you're so clueless that you've forced me to this point."

"Don't worry, I'm not in the mood to publicize your love for the time being, but the premise is that I don't want anyone to cause me any more trouble."

Feeling increasingly unwell, Wuyou closed her eyes, leaned back in her chair, and used her willpower to keep herself from fainting.

“I’ll agree to any condition as long as you don’t tell anyone,” Verina said immediately.

Only she knows what she's really thinking.

In any case, only the dead can truly keep secrets, and both of them knew that.

At this stage, Verina dares not make a move. The awakening ceremony is about to begin, and during this time all the children in the empire will be under strict protection and monitoring.

Once she's caught by the Imperial Enforcement Team, even if she has some connection to the richest family, she's finished.

All actions must wait until after the awakening ceremony.

When that happens, the little good-for-nothing will truly live up to her name, and who will care about her life or death?

Wuyou's priority was to stabilize them. Her body couldn't withstand any more setbacks, so she needed to get through the awakening ceremony smoothly first.

With their own thoughts, the scenery outside the window kept receding, and the spaceship soon arrived at the gate of the orphanage.

This time, Verina didn't yell at her. She obediently opened the spaceship door and helped her off the spaceship.

The interstellar orphanage, from the outside, looks even more luxurious than a hospital that rakes in money every day.

The two entered the orphanage one after the other. Wuyou was weak at the moment, her legs felt like they weighed a ton and she could hardly move. The things in front of her were still distorting.

The robot guarding the gate scanned the two people and, after confirming that there were no problems, opened the gate and let them in.

On my way back, I happened to run into Ms. Mo Qi'an, the director of the orphanage.

"You're back. How are you feeling, Wuyou?" She asked with a gentle smile and soft eyes.

"It's the same as always, nothing serious."

Verina, who was standing next to Wuyou, answered first, afraid that Wuyou would take the opportunity to complain to the dean.

Wuyou nodded quietly to the dean without saying anything; all she wanted to do was lie down and rest immediately.

"It's alright now, Wuyou, go back and get some rest."

The dean smiled and walked away to do other things.

Although Yangfan Orphanage was just one of the most ordinary orphanages under the Empire, it covered an area larger than the university in her previous life.

It simulates various terrains and natural environments, allowing children to explore freely.

Patrol robots are everywhere, just to spot children engaging in dangerous activities anytime, anywhere.

When she reached the artificial lake, the cool breeze that greeted her made her a little more awake. Wuyou stopped and leaned against a pavilion pillar to rest for a moment.

It was in this very spot that Verina's daughter, LeBlanc, pushed her into the water.

"Teacher Verina!"

Just as I was thinking of this person, her voice rang out from the other end.

LeBlanc rushed over and hugged Verina tightly. The identities of the two, mother and daughter, were a secret, and in public, LeBlanc still had to call her teacher.

"Lovely, you've come at the right time. Your actions of pushing Wuyou into the water that day were wrong. Apologize to her immediately."

Verina looked down at LeBlanc, her eyes full of affection, and even the tone of her reproach was soft and gentle, a stark contrast to how she had treated her in the hospital.

"Why should I! No way!" LeBlanc's entire body was filled with reluctance, and her eyes were full of stubbornness.

"If you still want to go back to the Delin family as the eldest daughter, you'd better listen to me."

Hearing Verina's words, LeBlanc's resistance lessened, and she moved closer to Wuyou.

"Sorry, I was wrong."

The sound was as soft as a mosquito's buzz, and there was no worry or concern.

She used all her strength to kick LeBlanc in the stomach.

There was a loud splash, and water sprayed high into the air.
