"Woof woof!"
As soon as Yue Heng dragged his suitcase into the house, Foaming Paste pounced on him.
The guy was so excited that he jumped up and down in front of Yue Heng. His butt shook his tail desperately, and he whimpered coquettishly. He simply lay on the ground and exposed his belly.
Yue Heng was a little puzzled.
Although he was the owner of Foaming Paste, Foaming Paste was Tian Tian's loyal dog. He usually wasn't so close to him.
Yue Heng couldn't help but squat down and rub his head.
Then, he saw Glutinous Rice not far away and resentfully turned around to walk into the villa.
Yue Heng came to a realization. Foaming Paste was bullied by Glutinous Rice again, so when he saw him, it was as if he saw his savior.
He couldn't help but complain, "You're too useless."
Compared to when he first bought Foaming Paste last year, the current Foaming Paste was already a big dog.
Although Glutinous Rice had grown a lot, there was no way she could compare to Foaming Paste's size. In the end, she beat the latter.
Foaming Paste lowered his head in shame.
"Daddy!"
At that moment, a little girl in a down jacket jumped out of the living room.
She jumped down the steps nimbly. Her bright red smile was like the warm winter sun. Her big eyes were full of happiness and joy. She rushed toward Yue Heng with her short legs.
"Baby."
Yue Heng opened his arms and pulled the little girl into his embrace. Then, he planted a kiss on her cheek.
Tian Tian giggled and hugged his neck, not letting go.
Yue Heng simply picked her up and asked, "Did you miss Daddy?"
Yue Heng had been away from home for two weeks on this trip to Mai. It was the longest time he had been separated from the little girl.
Even though he often video-called home when he was in Mai.
However, after being separated by thousands of mountains and rivers, the longing had already accumulated in his heart.
"Yes."
Tian Tian replied in a childish voice, "I miss daddy."
Yue Heng chuckled. He carried her with one hand and carried the luggage with the other to the living room.
Queen Chong was sitting on the sofa playing computer games with Glutinous Rice lying beside her.
She glanced at Yue Heng's return and immediately focused on the screen in front of her.
Yue Heng was already used to this.
"You're back."
Su Xiaowen stepped forward with a smile and took over his suitcase. "Just in time for lunch."
Yue Heng had already informed Su Xiaowen of the flight time before returning to China, so she had specially prepared a table of delicious food.
It was a welcome dinner for Yue Heng.
Yue Heng put Tian Tian on the sofa and opened his suitcase.
He took out the gift.
The gifts for Tian Tian and Queen Chong were limited edition Barbie dolls bought in Manhattan.
One for each person.
Actually, Queen Chong did not need such a gift at all.
She was not a real little girl.
However, when Yue Heng bought it for Tian Tian, he would also bring one for her.
Otherwise, it would feel weird.
"Wow!"
Tian Tian loved this gift from the other side of the ocean very much. Her eyes were sparkling as she hugged the Barbie doll in her arms.
Queen Chong stuffed her own doll into Tian Tian Tian's arms.
This made the little girl twice as happy!
Then, Yue Heng gave Su Xiaowen a set of branded cosmetics.
He bought it at the duty-free shop at the New York International Airport.
Su Xiaowen was pleasantly surprised.
After a sumptuous lunch, Yue Heng went to the basement.
In his small mechanical workshop.
He took out the Shield of Oaths from the Metropolitan Museum of Art and began to modify it.
In Yue Heng's previous life, the Oathed Shield had been owned by the Level 9 Super Body Grandmaster Quahad. This Super Body Grandmaster, who had the title of "Iron Wall of the Star Alliance", had embedded this strange item in his gloves and would never take it off.
It was said that when Quahad fully activated the power of the Shield of Oaths, it was in its strongest defensive state and could withstand the attack of a small nuclear weapon!
Yue Heng spent a lot of effort to bring the Shield of Oaths back to China as a birthday gift for Xu Jingchu.
The current Xu Jingchu might not even be able to use one percent of the Shield of Oaths' power.
However, this magical item was enough to protect her from accidental harm.
In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, it was necessary to modify the Shield of Oaths.
Yue Heng was considered an expert in this field.
Without destroying the Shield of Oaths, Yue Heng made it into a ring.
The Shield of Oaths was the surface of the ring.
The material of the ring was platinum. This kind of precious metal had a good affinity with most magical items and would not interfere with or affect the magical item's effect.
As the Shield of Oaths was larger than the surface of a normal ring, Yue Heng widened the surface of the ring.
The ring made this way was similar to a half-finger glove and needed to be worn on the middle finger.
After the rough processing was completed, Yue Heng carefully processed and polished this special ring.
The final product was very different from the prototype of the Shield of Oaths. There was basically no possibility of it being exposed.
Yue Heng called it the Ring of Oaths.
The second day he returned to Taijiang was a Saturday, so he asked his girlfriend out.
The date was at the park beside the Jiangnan Mansion.
When she saw Yue Heng, Xu Jingchu did not show any surprise. Instead, she wrinkled her nose and showed an "I am very unhappy" expression with a little grievance.
Yue Heng knew the reason. He smiled and held Xu Jingchu's right hand and put the Ring of Oaths on her slender middle finger.
The size was just right.
"Ah!"
Xu Jingchu was shocked. "What is this?"
The girl thought of something and her pretty face was instantly dyed with a layer of red.
"An early birthday gift for you."
Yue Heng held her left hand and led her to a hidden place nearby to sit down. "I made it myself. Do you like it?"
Xu Jingchu was sure that Yue Heng had no intention of proposing to her. She was embarrassed because of her misunderstanding. She snorted and said, "I don't like it. You are not sincere!"
Although she said that, she adjusted the Ring of Oaths to make it more comfortable for her.
She had no intention of taking it off.
"Its name is the Ring of Oaths."
Yue Heng stared at the girl and said seriously, "As long as you make an oath to it, it can always protect you."
This was the most special thing about the Shield of Oaths.
Making an oath was a way to resonate with this magical item. Otherwise, it would not be able to get its approval.
It would not be able to activate its power.
An oath could not be made casually, and it had to be fulfilled. It could not be broken!
Otherwise, it would be ineffective.
Protect yourself, protect your family, protect your lover, protect the earth, protect humanity …
Or protect beliefs, ideals, freedom, justice …
The bigger the oath, the stronger the effect.
In his previous life, the "League of Stars Iron Wall" Quahad made an oath to the Shield of Oaths to protect the League of Stars!
Xu Jingchu was more and more surprised as she listened.
Yue Heng was obviously not joking. She did not expect the ring to have such special properties.
The girl hesitated and asked, "Then do I have to make the oath now?"
"Think carefully before you make the oath."
Yue Heng held her hand and said, "Don't worry."
