Chapter 1018: Chapter 1018 Father and Son (2)

These past few days have been busy with this matter, his work has already piled up considerably, and right now, the situation in F Country is also turbulent. To be prepared for any eventuality, he must make thorough preparations.

Gan Yuan has already shown her stance, so for now, there is nothing more required of him. However, for safety’s sake, Huangfu Jue has still begun necessary deployments.

When encountering issues, plan for the worst and strive for the best; this is what his father taught him from a young age.

Being prepared averts danger; more preparation never harms.

On the way back, he already called the Rose Legion to arrange for their troops to be moved to the sea area closest to F Country’s territorial waters for military exercises.

Then, he made another call to the Royal Palace to inform Leng Xiaoye of the latest developments.

“Xiaotang is right beside me, would you like to speak to him?”

Leng Xiaoye immediately shouted on the other end, “Nonsense, quickly let our little darling take the call!”

Huangfu Jue handed the phone over, placing it by the little guy’s ear, and Gan Tang immediately spoke sweetly.

“Grandma.”

“Good boy.” Upon hearing the little one’s tender voice, Leng Xiaoye’s tone instantly softened considerably, “Tell Grandma, are you hurt?”

“Of course not.”

“Lying is not something good children do!”

“Well…” The little guy hesitated for a moment, “Actually, just a little bit, I got a few thorns on my hands, but it doesn’t hurt at all.”

He spoke lightly, but on the other end of the phone, Grandma was already feeling extremely distressed.

“Xiaotang, were you… scared?”

Knowing he was not seriously hurt, Leng Xiaoye’s tone eased slightly, but she was most worried that the incident might leave some psychological scar on the child.

After all, for a child this young, such an event is undoubtedly terrifying.

“Um, a little, but… then I thought Daddy and Mommy would definitely come to rescue me, so I wasn’t scared at all.” The little guy answered honestly.

From his tone, hearing that the little one hadn’t been too affected by the incident, Leng Xiaoye also breathed a sigh of relief, “You little rascal, knew you’d miss your mom and dad. Grandma wanted to come rescue you too, it’s just that your stinky dad didn’t tell me. Wait till he comes back, see if I don’t spank him.”

The little guy giggled, “Don’t worry, Grandma, I’m fine. Please tell Grandpa not to worry about me.”

“Okay, Grandma knows, Xiaotang is a brave child, you stay well with Daddy, and Grandma will come pick you up soon. Now give the phone back to Daddy.”

The little guy turned his head, “Daddy, Grandma wants you.”

Bringing the phone to his ear, Huangfu Jue spoke again, “Mom?”

“I know it’s busy over there and you can’t get away. Tomorrow morning, I will personally come over to bring Xiaotang back, so you don’t need to worry about things here, your father is taking care of it. Also, in the afternoon, we will release a statement supporting the unity of F Country. You just make sure to take good care of Littleyuan.”

“Okay. Thank you, Mom!”

“No need to thank me, you go home and rest well. I’m still waiting for you to take care of me in old age, don’t wear yourself out, then I’ll have to take care of you! Heard me?”

The first part was said in a sharp, disdainful tone, but it was evident that by the end, it was filled with a mother’s deep concern and love for her son.

A son is always dear to his mother’s heart, how could she not care for her own child?

A gentle look flashed in Huangfu Jue’s eyes, and he immediately responded in a relaxed tone.

“Yes, Your Majesty the Queen!”
