Balu Lulu is an original-model little robot, snowy white all over, with a square head and a chubby body. Slow-moving and a big eater, it has been at the Research and Conservation Institute for a month. Apart from saying good morning and good night and asking people if they want water, all it does is pick up litter. It goes unnoticed. When it is sent on a mission in the wilderness, doubts and worries abound. "So many excellent robots have failed. Can this one really do it?" "What if it crashes before reaching the North Pole and falls into the Arctic Ocean, polluting the environment instead?" "Are we really counting on this discarded robot to rescue Blue Star's last polar bear?" "According to the Robot Management Regulations, this robot should be scrapped immediately." Balu Lulu opened its blue eyes wide and said nothing, because talking used up power. It just put on its little backpack and strode determinedly toward the wilderness. Three minutes later. "Oh my gosh! Balu Lulu found the polar bear cub's tracks!" "It must have gotten lucky. It's so clumsy." Five minutes later. "Oh my gosh! Balu Lulu found the polar bear cub's soul essence! The cub can be saved!" "Oh my gosh, it's amazing! I'll stay up all night making power-ring batteries for it!" "Please ask it to help rescue that emperor penguin chick too!" Balu Lulu's square eyes curved into little crescent moons. It clenched its tiny fists. As long as it worked hard and did its best, Blue Star would keep getting better, and little robots could enjoy a good life with plenty to eat! Reader's Guide: 1.

New story: Can Someone with Social Anxiety Make a Good Emperor? Now ongoing. Snuggled in the arms of a powerful mother, everything goes smoothly. 1. Updated daily at 9:00 p.m. Original title: Dad or Mom, I'm the Strongest. He Jiu is timid, bad at socializing, and suffers from severe social anxiety. Reborn in the Great Wei Dynasty, she becomes one of its many unremarkable princes. If her secret is discovered, she'll be thrown away. He Jiu clings tightly to her secret identity as a girl, carefully hiding the fact that she's a little monster, and lives in the most remote palace. Her father is unknown, and she thought life would be difficult. But although Jiujiu Palace is remote, it's beautiful and no less impressive than the other palaces. The palace attendants don't dare bully her. When she gets sick, the doctor arrives quickly, and at night, someone even comes to check her pulse and treat her injuries while she sleeps. So she grows up safe and sound in the little corner she loves, with no one disturbing her. One day in class, the teacher asks her a question. She gets so nervous that she forgets everything. Her face turns red, and she can't answer. The noble young masters mock her, saying that despite her pretty face, she's only average in ability and a disgrace to the imperial princes. She's so embarrassed she's almost in tears. Her mother, dressed in imperial robes, walks over through a crowd of thousands paying their respects. She picks her up and wipes the sweat from her brow. "She will amaze the rivers, seas, mountains, and lands." Everyone falls silent, apologizes, and prostrates themselves. They don't even dare breathe aloud. She is the only empress in the Great Wei Dynasty's long history, a master of civil and military affairs, decisive and respected by all. She is also a tyrant who killed her father and brother to take the throne, feared by everyone. He Jiu rests her head on her mother's shoulder and hugs her tightly. She has to keep her mental powers under control and work hard at her studies, so she doesn't turn into an idiot who can only confess, "Mom, I love you!" 2. The emperor is heartless. He Qilin cares only about the realm and its borders. She's cold and ruthless, even toward her many royal children. That is, until the autumn hunt and ancestral rites, when she takes the royal children to eat in the woods. The mosquitoes aren't afraid of her, much to her annoyance. All the other royal children eat nervously and carefully. In a corner, a child clenches her little fists and strains, until a transparent figure emerges above her head. No one else can see it. The figure gradually solidifies, cups its hands, and tiptoes gently toward her. He Qilin rests one hand on her steel-ribbed folding fan, looking unconcerned. If the figure makes a move, she'll kill it with a single strike. The child rises onto her toes and reaches out. Smack! She kills a mosquito with pinpoint accuracy. He Qilin: "?" 3. Apart from his looks, the Seventh Prince is ordinary in every way, completely unremarkable, yet uniquely favored by the emperor. Even the other princes are protective of him. The ministers are baffled, but don't dare voice their doubts. One day, the mystery is solved. The court is shaken, and even the common people are stunned. Millions upon millions of people petition for the Seventh Prince to be named heir. No one in the court objects. Instead, a wave of fervent admiration sweeps through the land. The uproar surpasses even the time when the empress ascended the throne as a woman. He Qilin: "You will be the heir and become emperor one day." He Jiu: "QAQ, help! Mom, I have social anxiety. I can't be a good emperor!" He Qilin: "...You've already done everything an emperor is supposed to do." Minister: Seventh Highness, your secret identity has been completely exposed. You're Master Lu, the ironmaking expert; Auntie Can, the weaving expert; and the person revered by scholars throughout the land as their kindred spirit, known as Jiu Bole. You also solved the Jianghuai embezzlement case. You've been keeping us in the dark all this time! Other princes: Our sister really is the strongest. We can't beat her, don't want to fight her, and don't want to get beaten up either. People: I hear the future emperor is powerful but very shy, always hiding behind her mother and ministers. What should we do? She's kind of adorable. Also known as: Come Give Me a Hug, Mom. I've Finally Made It to Your Side. ****Content Notes**** 1. This is not a matriarchal society. The heroine's mother took the throne herself and has never been involved with any of the people currently appearing in the story. There is another reason for the child's birth, which will be explained later. If you're really, really bothered by an empress having several children, please don't read. Please don't announce your departure. My sincere thanks. 2. The story has a special world setting: the ten princes are five sets of twins and were born in incubators. This involves spoilers, so I won't explain it further here. If you're really bothered by the empress having multiple children, please don't read. Thank you for understanding. Reader's Guide: 1. A workaholic mother + daughter equals a pair of unstoppable queens of the universe. 2. One-on-one romance, boy-girl pairing. A powerful mother protects her child.
