Chapter 1129: Create Your Own Future (2/2)
”Uncle Zihao.”
”Do you…never mind.”
Bacon tilted his head to the side again. ”What is it, Uncle Zihao? Acting so indecisively like this is not classy.”
”Tsk.” Lu Zihao contemplated for a few moments. When he spoke again, his voice was almost a whisper. ”Do you think that…that I can have a future with your Aunt Jinjing?”
Bacon tilted his head to the other side. ”By have a future, does Uncle Zihao mean that you want to marry Aunt Jinjing?”
Lu Zihao's current expression was hard to describe. Even he couldn't describe the hodgepodge of emotions he was feeling right now. He felt embarrassed and stupid for even asking for relationship advice from his cat AI nephew—for god's sake—but he would never admit it.
”Just answer me, kid,” he said through gritted teeth.
”Bacon cannot predict the future because I don't have magical powers. However, Mother once told us siblings that our own future is ours to create. If we really want something, then we have to work hard and do everything to make it happen. Mother said that she regrets not fighting for her dreams and happiness before, that's why she's doing everything now to pursue everything that she loves so that she won't ever experience that kind of regret again. Isn't Mother the classiest?”
There was no reply but Bacon didn't mind. His fluffy, black tail swished from side to side. His golden eyes glowed brighter. He obviously loved talking about his mother.
”If Uncle Zihao wants to do the classy thing like Mother, then stop worrying about a future that hasn't happened yet. Bacon may not understand many things because I'm still young and born not too long ago, but as long as I follow Mother's teachings, I know that I will be able to live a classy and fulfilling life because Mother is the best in the whole wide universe and beyond. Uncle Zihao should just create your own future with Aunt Jinjing and stop acting like a coward and a scumbag. If you're worried about Aunt Jinjing's safety, then Uncle Zihao should just become stronger so that you can protect your woman better. That's classy.”
A chuckle bubbled in Lu Zihao's throat. There was a self-deprecating note to it. ”I can't believe I'm having this kind of fucking conversation with you.”
”Please don't use such vulgar words in front of your young nephew. It's not classy. Bacon doesn't want to learn bad things and get grounded by Father again.”
This time, the soft chuckle turned to full laughter. ”Go back to your parents, kid. I really need to sleep. We'll talk another time.”
”Understood, Uncle Zihao. Bacon will leave now.” The black cat AI disappeared, but only one second later, he reappeared again. ”Uncle Zihao.”
”What again?”
”Father will talk to you later about something that Bacon did while Uncle Zihao was comatose. Please don't get too mad. That's all. Sleep well. Goodbye.”
Before Lu Zihao could react, Bacon disappeared. Even when he called the kid, Bacon didn't return. Ah, whatever. He would just deal with it no matter what it was.
He closed his eyes and embraced Long Jinjing more tightly. He kissed the top of her head and inhaled. Then he finally fell asleep while smelling her sweet, comforting scent.
