Chapter 466 Extra 5: "Chen Universe" (5)
```
"For example?"
With a hint of curiosity, Hungry Monkey spoke up. He was genuinely curious about what these people normally did on other planets, as he hadn't been to other worlds much himself.
"Well, about that."
Scarred Dog grinned and said, "Just wait a few days until it's all over, and I'll take you on a tour. Then you'll see for yourself."
...
Meanwhile, at the banquet hall, Jiaye was holding Lord Miao's hand, unable to stop stroking it: "Being young is so great, your skin is so delicate it seems it could drip water. When I was young, I was just like you, but alas, time spares no one."
"I'm already old. Your little face is so soft and tender, let Auntie feel it properly."
"Not at all."
Lord Miao said, somewhat shyly, "Auntie, you don't look it at all. I have trouble calling you Auntie. It feels like you're more like my sister. But if I don't call you Auntie, it messes up our family relations."
"Auntie's skin is much better than mine, and you have such a nice personality too. Yi was really fortunate to have married you."
"You, child."
JIaye couldn't help the smile overflowing on her face: "You're so sweet-tongued. Who did you learn it from? Couldn't be from my son, I hope? I recall my son Chen Miao can be quite foul-mouthed."
"..."
Chen Miao, who was sitting on a nearby sofa smoking, couldn't help but twitch at the corners of his mouth when he heard this. Was that a way to talk about her own son? Saying that her son has a dirty mouth? He didn't remember ever cursing much before, right?
His self-perception, after all, was still that of a model youth.@@@@
"Sigh."
Chen Yi, sitting beside Chen Miao, sighed softly, his face showing helpless irritation as he put an arm over his son's shoulders and said, "Your mom's brain is a bit off. I wonder if all women are like this."
"I'm the owner of this universe. This whole universe is mine. All the skincare products I give your mom are top-notch. Just look at your mom: could you say she doesn't look like an 18-year-old girl when you glance at her?"
"But this is what happens. Every day she talks about how old she is, as if she won't be old unless she's three or four. Right now, I'm in a good mood. If I weren't, I'd give your mom such a punch that she'd reincarnate, let her really be young again."
"Um..."
Chen Miao was momentarily at a loss for words, not quite sure how to respond. It seemed he might have some misconceptions about himself, since his father appeared to be the real foul-mouthed one.
At that moment—
Lord Miao, as if presenting a treasure, pulled out a necklace from her bosom and handed it over: "Auntie, this is a necklace I prepared for you. I hope you like it."
"Oh, how thoughtful."
Jiaye happily put the necklace around her neck, and a servant, knowing what was expected, handed her a mirror. Jiaye looked at the necklace in the mirror, nodding and unable to let go: "It's so beautiful. My daughter-in-law has such good taste."
"Hey, hey."
Chen Yi quickly came forward to help the man up, smiling kindly, "We are of the same generation, and I surely cannot accept this. It wouldn't be proper for our in-laws to kowtow on their first visit, and the Chen Family would not want to lose face over such a thing."
"Let's put the past behind us."
"The child is still young and should endure some hardships. What's more, you neither killed nor hit him; you just disowned him, which is quite normal and completely understandable. Now, isn't everything resolving nicely? The two children truly love each other, and as their parents, we naturally want to consider their feelings."
"That's the right idea," Jiaye said with a smile as he pulled the middle-aged woman to sit beside him. "Let's not dwell on the past; if you hadn't brought it up, I would have forgotten all about it."
The middle-aged woman laughed dryly a few times, feeling awkward and unsure of what to say next. She hadn't brought it up; they were the ones who had. If they really had forgotten, could she even mention it?
Complete bullshit!
A bunch of hypocrites!
"..."
Chen Yi's smile suddenly froze on his face, turning to look at the middle-aged woman, and after a long silence, he said with a complicated expression, "Well, in-laws, this is our first real interaction, and there may be things we both don't understand about each other."
"Erm, has my son told you that I, Chen Yi, can hear what others are thinking in their minds?"
"Ah?"
Chen Miao was stunned, a hint of shock flickering in his eyes. Father, you never told me this! The ability to hear others' thoughts is a bit too outrageous, isn't it?
Wait, he hadn't thought anything strange just now, had he?
The middle-aged woman, trying not to believe it, counted silently in her mind: one, two, three, four, five.
Without any expression, Chen Yi softly said, "One, two, three, four, five."

The woman, as if possessed, tried to count silently in her mind again: hoeing the weeds under the midday sun.
"Hoeing the weeds under the midday sun."
Chen Yi repeated softly once more.
The woman's previously dry smile now completely stiffened on her face, and without another word, she attempted to kneel down on the spot, "Please stop, in-law. I must kowtow to you this time, as a thanks for your son's life-saving grace to my daughter. If it weren't for your son, I wouldn't have been able to see my daughter."
The middle-aged man standing next to her now looked somewhat helpless, knowing without having to think that his wife must have been muttering complaints in her heart that the in-law overheard.
It's insane how an in-law could even possess such an ability to eavesdrop on thoughts.
Too bizarre, too...
Oh, no, too magnificent. In-law, you have my greatest admiration; you are the strongest.
The middle-aged man, who had been distracted, suddenly realized he might have said the wrong thing and hastily corrected himself in his mind, noting that it was his first time experiencing his thoughts being heard by someone.
