Through the book: The villain’s son’s stand-in

Rhine did not conceal her appearance.

Because most of the people who can spend money here are unable to come into contact with her at this level. If they happened to recognize her, they would automatically avoid her and not dare to provoke her.

So, she blended into the crowd very naturally and walked around picking souvenirs.

Because of the friendly visit from the Tree Vine Empire, the businessmen were keenly aware of the business opportunities.

However, in January, various derivatives related to the Tree Vine Empire began to flow into the market.

What Rhine is holding is a mandala-shaped doll.

This magnetic field becomes extremely obvious when shopping.

"Brother Dong, I like this mandala vine doll."

"Yeah, buy it."

"So, among all the dolls, which one do you like best?"

"……you."

"I'm asking the doll!"

"I'm talking about dolls too."

"..."

"..."

The atmosphere between the two was full of ambiguity, but Ke Jin felt that her light bulb was getting brighter.

As a result, Ke Jin turned his grief and anger into strength and embarked on a self-centered journey to find the prototype.

found it!

He stared with joy at the male version of the hibiscus doll, which was placed in the glass display case and stood among the spherical hibiscus flowers. It was dressed in pink and white but not feminine.

Perhaps it is the public's stereotype of men in the Tree Vine Empire. The ends of the characters' eyes are dyed red with pink eye shadow, giving them a touch of evil charm.

However, at first glance, Ke Jin liked this the most.

So, he raised his eyes to look at the two people in the ambiguous period, and saw that neither of them seemed to notice him, and he couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

But when I saw the price of the anthropomorphic doll, I decided to buy it myself.

"...I'll go check out. You guys wait here for a while." Ke Dong asked, and both mother and son nodded in agreement.

After he left, Rhine did not lower his head to ask him if he liked anything, as if he had forgotten his promise.

Ke Jin couldn't help but feel even more disappointed.

The three of them walked outside the store. Although Ke Jin was standing between them, she still felt that she shouldn't be there.

At this time, Ke Dong suddenly handed him a green soft metal box. Apart from some strange white patterns, only the name of the doll shop was the most obvious.

Ke Jin paused and looked at him doubtfully: "Do you want me to hold it?"

Ke Dong smiled and did not answer, but said: "Open it and take a look."

Ke Jin groaned and relied on Ke Dong's strength to slowly peel off the hard and soft metal shell.

"...This is the hibiscus flower doll!"

A three-dimensional anthropomorphic doll was placed in the soft but solid white fluid model.

The style of the doll was exactly what he liked.

Ke Jin raised his head in surprise: "Dad, thank you."

Ke Dong smiled slightly and did not reply, but looked in the direction of Lain.

"I almost forgot your prototype, but someone remembers it very clearly."

Rhine was staring at the ground at this time, looking leisurely and contented.

Ke Dong was keenly aware of Ke Dong's gaze, so he raised his eyes and met Ke Dong's smiling eyes and Ke Jin's surprised look.

She tilted her head and looked forward, and said calmly: "I am the king of words. If I promise to make up for it, you will never forget it."

His words were blunt and official, completely different from the slickness he used in front of Ke Dong.

It shows that she is really new to getting along with children.

But Ke Jin seemed to have jumped from hell to heaven at this moment. He frowned and looked up in the direction of Rhine.

Suddenly, he had the courage to hold her hand with both hands and smiled brightly.

"thanks Mom."

Rhine was startled by his actions, but he endured the discomfort in his heart and did not push him away.

Let him pull you.

"...No, you deserve this."

Rhine's tone was deep, as if he was informing the other party, but also admonishing himself.

Then, as if she had thought of something, she looked into Ke Jin's eyes and taught: "Next time, if you want something, you can say it out loud and don't fall into internal friction."

Her eyebrows were full of arrogance, and she said seriously: "You are my son, the prince of the Shuteng Empire, show some confidence as a king."

"Ah."

Ke Jin nodded heavily.

While mother and son were talking, Ke Dong was also observing the two of them silently.

He has long been aware of Ke Jin's character problems

Perhaps due to his past hiding experience, although he is no longer withdrawn and timid, he is not confident enough.

He thought that under Rhine's strong teachings, maybe Ke Jin would become more confident.

At noon the next day, Gu Chengzheng was sitting in front of the window eating lunch alone. The honey-colored sauce was poured on the rice, which immediately whetted his appetite.

Today, Pei Mingxu took another day off after taking leave due to illness.

Eugene was so hot after playing football that he frantically drank five sticks of ice cream and was now running to the bathroom in discomfort at home.

It's strange to say that a therapeutic device that can perfectly cure daily fevers and colds is somewhat helpless when it comes to diarrhea.

After the power lines in the class were clearly defined, life became stable.

Even his relationship with Brian gradually eased, and he could say hello and greet him as usual when they met.

It's as if the bad things of the past don't exist.

"...Today, the Queen of the Rhine is leaving, and Ke Jin should go and see her off."

As he said that, he turned on the optical brain, and the top 1 hot spot in the Star Bar was the video of the Queen's return.

There was no one around, and he wasn't afraid of disturbing others' interest in eating, so he clicked on the video and watched it while eating.

The starship fleet that came to welcome the Queen of the Rhine back home was very streamlined.

In addition to the main ship where the Queen is located, there are only four auxiliary ships patrolling the surrounding areas.

But whether it is its huge size or the tough dark green painted shell that faintly reveals the texture of bark under the light of stars and high platforms, it all reveals a powerful aura.

He knew the material.

Gu Cheng swallowed another mouthful of rice ball, then went back and looked at it carefully before confirming: "This is the tree man leather armor."

According to records, Treant Leather Armor, a top-notch defensive material, comes from a race of Treants called Stone Pine in the Tree Vine Empire.

Lycopodium tree people shed a layer of skin every hundred years. The older they get, the thicker the skin becomes and its uses become more useful.

Gu Cheng put down his chopsticks, wiped his lips carefully, looked at the fleet in the distance, and sighed: "The main ship is made of Thousand-Year Treant Leather Armor. Such a huge main ship probably needs a lot of top-grade leather. One hundred thousand..."

"What a luxury."

Suddenly, the video camera panned out, and Gu Cheng saw the emperor and empress at Starport Zero, including Pei Mingxu.

However, today, Ke Jin and Ke Dong, the father and son, paused for a long time before leaving, as if to announce the farewell to the protagonists today.

Gu Cheng stayed on Ke Jin's face for a few seconds, staring at his reluctant expression, and couldn't help but sigh: "I don't know how long Ke Jin can stay here."

He had a hunch that it would not be long before Ke Jin left the Star Empire...

"Drip!"

Suddenly, a message interrupted the video playback and occupied the top of the screen.

Gu Cheng took a closer look and saw that the news he had come here to look forward to slowly unfolded.

[Mom: Your uncle Ke and Xiaojin are coming over for dinner today. Do you have an appointment with your classmates tonight? 】

Gu Cheng thought for a few seconds and replied directly: "No."

Several people he knew well had asked for leave, and no one wanted to make an appointment.

[Mom: Then I will pick you up after school. 】

Gu Cheng picked up the dinner plate, stood up, walked a few steps, put it in the cleaning device, and then said hello.

When he walked out of the cafeteria, Gu Cheng was still thinking about the purpose of the two people's sudden arrival.

After a while, he suddenly stopped and said suspiciously: "Isn't he going to return to China soon..."
