Chapter 129.2
Editor: Jodi
The next day.
Sima Mingxuan was the earliest to wake up because of his unstable mental energy. He hadn’t had a good night’s sleep for a long time, hence the moment he heard movement outside his room, he came out immediately and went downstairs.
“Auntie, good morning.” He greeted politely when he saw Lu Si Ying, who was in her house coat, about to go downstairs.
“It’s Mingxuan? Why are you up so early? Wouldn’t it be better to sleep in a bit more?” Lu Si Ying asked.
“I couldn’t sleep, so I decided to get up.” Sima Mingxuan replied, then he suddenly frowned, a very uncomfortable expression on his face.
“Mingxuan, what’s wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?” Lu Si Ying asked anxiously.
Her voice shocked Yan Fei who was in the room awake, and opening the door and seeing Sima Mingxuan leaning on the staircase railing with one hand and holding his forehead with the other, he immediately understood what was happening and paling with fear, flew over, “Mingxuan, how are you? Is your mental energy agitated?”
“It’s fine.”
“Look at your face right now, it’s as pale as a sheet of paper and you’re saying it’s fine.”
“It hurt a little just now, but it’s fine now.” Sima Mingxuan patted him affectionately. “Don’t be like this, you’re scaring Auntie.”
Lu Si Ying finally also reacted as she remembered what her youngest, Yan Fei had told her last night. She asked worriedly, “Is the injury to Mingxuan’s sea of consciousness that severe?”
“Mom, didn’t I tell you yesterday? Mingxuan’s sea of consciousness was injured by the level nine zerg’s mental shockwave while defending the Federation, and now he can’t even sleep peacefully. I really want to help him recover quickly.” Yan Fei said with heartache.
Sima Mingxuan continued to appear vulnerable, while also keeping an eye on Lu Si Ying’s reactions. Yan Fei had already explained everything up to this point, so Lu Si Ying would be going to find Yan Hao next right?
“How about….” Lu Si Ying began, causing both Yan Fei and Sima Mingxuan to hold their breaths. “Yan Fei, you and Mingxuan return to Capital Star Planet?”
“!!” Sima Mingxuan.
“Mom, what did you just say?” Yan Fei couldn’t believe his ears.
“Mingxuan’s injury looks quite severe, so we need to find a Pharmacist for treatment as soon as possible. The most skilled Pharmacist on Z Star Planet is only a level seven Pharmacist, and he won’t be able to treat Mingxuan’s condition. You guys should go back to Capital Star Planet and find your Master or go to the Sima Legion’s base, there will definitely be top tier Pharmacists who can help Mingxuan.” Lu Si Ying analyzed seriously.
Yan Fei felt a dull pain in his arm that was being held by Sima Mingxuan. He endured the pain and said to his mother, “Mom, didn’t I tell you yesterday? I’ve already found a prescription to treat Mingxuan. We just need big brother to help calculate it, and it’ll take at most half a day.”
Based on his experience from childhood to adulthood, Yan Hao had never taken more than half a day to calculate a prescription and in this regard, even he had more confidence than Yan Hao himself.
After he said this, Yan Fei and Sima Mingxuan both looked at Lu Si Ying.
How could Lu Si Ying fail to notice Yan Fei’s meaning? She said hesitantly, “But….. Yan Hao isn’t willing to help.”
Sima Mingxuan’s eyes widened suddenly, and Yan Fei couldn’t help but shout, “What?!”
“Xiao Fei, calm down first. Let’s go downstairs and let Auntie explain slowly.” They were on the staircase and Yan Fei’s voice was so loud, Sima Mingxuan was afraid Yan Hao would hear.
The three of them went downstairs together and sat in the living room.
“Mom, why did big brother refuse?” Yan Fei asked as soon as they sat down, unable to wait.
“Why else? He’s been at odds with you since childhood, always competing with you. As soon as he heard it was you asking for help, he refused without thinking.”
“He refused even though you asked?” Yan Fei persisted.
“Hmph, he doesn’t see me as his mother anymore. He was very disrespectful when I went to talk to him last night.” Lu Si Ying still felt angry when she thought about it. Although Yan Hao used to be a shameful brat and not sensible in the past, he had never been impolite to her, but now he was becoming more and more rebellious. “Xiao Fei, the prescription is for treating Mingxuan’s illness, so it has to be done very cautiously. Since Yan Hao doesn’t want to help, maybe we should forget about it.”
“No way!” Yan Fei roared loudly.
Startled, Lu Si Ying looked at her youngest son who had shouted at her just now twice this morning in shock.
“Xiao Fei, watch your attitude. Is that how to speak to your mother?” After shouting at Yan Fei, Sima Mingxuan turned to comfort Lu Si Ying. “Auntie, don’t blame Xiao Fei. He’s just really too worried about me.”
Lu Si Ying nodded, but her mood didn’t improve much. So because you care about your boyfriend, it gives you the right to shout at your mother?
Yan Fei also quickly realized that he had forgotten himself and leaned in closer to Lu Si Ying, holding her arm as he apologized with a guilty expression, “Mom, I’m sorry, I lost my temper. I’m just too distressed. Mingxuan hasn’t had a proper night’s sleep in six months. If this continues, he won’t be able to hold on.”
Yan Fei was after all the child she had always loved since he was little, so although Lu Si Ying still felt uncomfortable in her heart, she still reassured him, “I understand, but I think what your big brother said is right. You and he are still students who haven’t graduated yet. Treating Mingxuan’s illness should be left to a Master Pharmacist. Mingxuan was injured for the Federation, so he’s a hero of the Federation, hence the Federation should arrange the best Master Pharmacist for him.”
“Mom, why can’t you just understand? We already have the prescription, we just need big brother to calculate it.” Yan Fei said.
“Why does it have to be Yan Hao who would calculate it? Can’t you find someone else?”
“Because he’s the only one who can calculate it.”
Lu Si Ying had an extremely proud personality, hence after facing Yan Hao’s verbal attack yesterday, she didn’t want to go and ask him again. So she suggested, “Yan Hao has already refused me, so going to him again won’t change anything. Your father will be back in the evening, why not let him ask?”
Yan Fei was unwilling to let the matter drop and wanted to say more, but Sima Mingxuan pressed him down: “Xiao Fei, don’t make things difficult for Auntie.”
Yan Fei looked at him and only then did he not say anything more.
On this day, Yan Hao didn’t come downstairs at all. He even had his meals delivered by the household robot, and Lu Si Ying didn’t call him downstairs either, seemingly still angry from their argument the previous night. It wasn’t until Yan Hao’s father, Yan Wenyao, returned home in the evening that Yan Hao finally came downstairs to have dinner with them.
As soon as Yan Wenyao returned, Yan Fei wasted no time in telling him that he wanted Yan Hao to calculate the prescription, explaining the situation using the same words and reasoning he had used on his mother. Yan Wenyao had also been on the battlefield when he was young and had once been a Level 5 mech warrior before he retired due to injury and entered the business world, so he always respected the mech warriors who defended the Federation. Hence the moment he heard about Sima Mingxuan’s situation, he immediately said that he would definitely make Yan Hao help.
Yan Wenyao, unlike his wife Lu Si Ying, had a more authoritarian personality. While Lu Si Ying had known to send some fruit as a token of goodwill before discussing the matter with Yan Hao, he took a direct approach, ordering Yan Hao with the aura of being the family head to help immediately.
And Yan Hao, even though he didn’t care about this family and his parents anymore and also wasn’t willing to be ordered around in such a manner, he also understood that he could never win arguments in the family.
“How are you all so sure that I can calculate this prescription?” Yan Hao asked Yan Fei.
“Big brother, your math has always been excellent, and back in middle school, many of my prescription calculations were done by you.” Yan Fei replied.
“So you also know that all those prescriptions were calculated by me?” Yan Hao chuckled.
Yan Fei’s expression stiffened, but he held his tongue.
“Father, Mother, in the past, I could calculate prescriptions because they were basic prescriptions at that time, and I had a good understanding of pharmacy since I was studying pharmacy. But now, what Yan Fei wants to calculate is a medicine for stabilizing S level mental energy. I changed my major to Mech Building after going to University, so my knowledge of pharmacy is limited to my high school years. Do you really think I have the ability to calculate this? I can do it if you guys insist, but if something goes wrong, I won’t be responsible.” After Yan Hao finished saying this, he looked at Sima Mingxuan as if to say, ‘If you dare to use it, I’ll dare to do it for you.’
Sima Mingxuan’s eyes narrowed, his expression shifting continuously as he thought about something. The rest of the Yan family on the other hand fell deep into thought after hearing Yan Hao’s words. The Yan husband and wife felt that Yan Hao’s words made sense, what’s more they had originally never felt that Yan Hao was particularly exceptional. What if he made a mistake in the calculation and instead of curing Sima Mingxuan, he harmed him? It could result in severe consequences, so they were instantly dissuaded. However Yan Fei, like Sima Mingxuan sensed the warning in Yan Hao’s words and judged him with his own standards. If it were him and he had the chance to waste Sheng Heng completely, he definitely wouldn’t hold back.
Seeing that they weren’t talking anymore, Yan Hao wasn’t in the mood to eat. He immediately put his chopsticks down and got up to go to his room. He would wait for three more days, then after Senior Sheng arrived, he would leave this place and never come back.

In order to never come back, he needs to officially sever his family relation and make it public. Otherwise his mom could just kidnap him again.
Thanks for the update
