A Star Reborn: The Queen’s Return-Chapter 1328

Chapter 1328: Future Plans

Li Rui’s voice was a little hoarse. “Even if I wanted to do laborious work, my dad wouldn’t allow it.”

Which man was willing to squander away his life? Even this Young Master who had all of his needs taken care of wanted to be of some value. Unfortunately, he did not have the birthright. From a young age, Li Lei prevented him from learning about the headquarters secrets. Even though he was clothed and fed well, who would understand the bitterness in his heart?

“I understand,” Shaohui said.

Li Rui smiled bitterly and put out his cigarette. “Brother, you don’t have to comfort me. I don’t blame dad. I’m already very grateful that he’s willing to take care of me. I know his difficulties. No matter how much he loves me, he will never let an outsider mix with those in the Li Family bloodline. In this regard, I will never be as good as you.”

“There’s no comparison to be made.” Shaohui said, “If I were in your position, I might not be able to be as outstanding as you.”

He patted his brother’s shoulder. How could he change his fate? The only thing he could do was to secretly pass on everything his parents taught him to Li Rui and give his brother a chance to prove his worth. His parents only shut Li Rui out because of him, but he did not need this sort of protection.

Li Rui also patted his brother’s hand. Perhaps he only achieved so much because he had his brother’s unconditional trust from a young age.

On the other hand, Xia Yingluo bid her parents a final farewell before heading back to her room to rest.

She took a shower, changed into a clean set of clothes and looked at her familiar room. Only then did she feel a sense of revitalization.

Xia Moyan came to visit her.

Looking at this cold man, she did not feel surprised. Instead, she smiled, greeted him, invited him into her room and personally brewed tea for him.

Between sips of fragrant tea, Xia Moyan calmly said, “It’s a great honor to drink the tea made by the Queen of Skatana Planet.”

Xia Yingluo continued to smile. “Uncle, stop joking around. I’m still the same Yingluo.” She understood what he meant. Her uncle said that because he wanted to know if the awakened Queen was still the same Xia Yingluo and she gave him the answer he wanted.

Thus, Xia Moyan said, “What are your plans for the future?”

“Plans?” Xia Yingluo slightly tilted her head and was a little stunned as she watched the steam rise from the tea. The awakening time was too short. Escaping. Meeting her relatives. There were too many things to settle and she did not have the time to think about the future. Now that Xia Moyan asked her this question, she fell deep in thought before saying, “I want to go back.”

Her voice was very soft but firm.

“Back to Skatana Planet?” Xia Moyan asked.

“Yes.”

“Didn’t you say that the planet had already exploded?”

“Its remains are still there. I can feel it.” As she spoke, Xia Yingluo unconsciously placed her graceful palms on her heart. The corners of her smile became gentler. With a little trepidation, she lifted her head to look at Xia Moyan. “I am the guardian of the Skatana Planet. The title of guardian there is passed down from generation to generation just like the system on Earth. Uncle, I can feel its pulse like how you can feel Earth’s.”

Xia Moyan’s cold eyes flashed with surprise briefly.

Except for the Xia Family Preceptor, who was also the guardian of the planet, no one knew about the pulse of the planet. The fact that Xia Yingluo mentioned this proved that she was really a planet’s guardian. “Does every planet have this sort of sensation?” Xia Moyan asked. At this time, human curiosity about the unknown took over.

Xia Yingluo said, “Every planet that bears life has it. Some large but lifeless planets also have it. In fact, this is the manifestation of a planet’s will. The stronger a planet is, the stronger its will is, the stronger its pulse is and the deeper its connection with its guardian. Skatana Planet is at the peak of its existence in the universe. Even though it was destroyed billions of years ago and exploded into countless fragments, I can still feel it. It’s still alive and it’s calling for me.”

Her words made Xia Moyan’s eyes slightly misty. To him, that was a mysterious yet fascinating unknown territory.

“Can you tell me more about the planet and the universe?” He asked.

“Of course.” Xia Yingluo smiled again. “Earth is my second home.” She wished that her home would be stronger, at least to the extent to which it could protect itself. However, now, her planet was too weak and resided in a remote corner of the universe. If it were discovered by an alien civilization, it would not be able to fight back and escape its desolate state.

Xia Moyan said, “Thank you.”

That was a solemn thank you from one planet guardian to another.

However, Xia Yingluo said, “Uncle, why are you being so formal? Honestly, you were the one who saved my life.” As she spoke she, shook the bracelet on her wrist.

As such, a smile appeared on Xia Moyan’s lips. “I guess you don’t want to expose your ability. That’s why you’re using this bracelet. Even without it, breaking out of Wei Lingnan’s underground base would be a piece of cake for you.” Perhaps, ever since they learned the difference between the queen and the traitor in stories, as The Preceptor, Xia Moyan deeply understood the difference between a guardian and ordinary people. The difference in power was an insurmountable divide.

Xia Yingluo nodded. “I don’t want him to know who I am.”

Xia Moyan did not ask why because he already knew. Perhaps, the previous Queen was more arrogant and never chose to forgive those who betrayed her. He did not refute her. In fact, he secretly hoped that she would stay as far away as possible from that man.

“Just let me know if you need any help.” He said.

Xia Yingluo acknowledged him in agreement.

Xia Moyan asked her, “How do you plan to return to Skatana Planet? Are you going to leave your parents and family?”

Xia Yingluo shook her head. “My parents have treated me very well, so I won’t leave immediately and make them upset. Skatana Planet’s inhabitants have very long lives and can live almost forever. I plan to leave Earth only when my parents are a hundred years old. That will probably sum up my fate with Earth.”

Only then was Xia Moyan relieved. He was really worried that Xia Yingluo would leave immediately and cause his silly sister to faint from crying. After that, he asked another question. “You said that Skatana Planet’s inhabitants can live almost forever. However, Yingluo, you reincarnated as a human. Are you sure that your lifespan will be as long?”

Xia Yingluo lifted her hand and thought about it. “I’m not sure.”

Then, she added, “Skatana Planet inhabitants have no metabolism. In theory, if we do not consume energy in battle, the energy will be conserved forever. This is the secret to our infinite life. However, I’m not sure if I have a metabolism or if I have a metabolism that is different from ordinary people. Anyway, it doesn’t matter. After a few days of observation, I will find out.”
