668 Be Careful On The Way There. Come Back Early
Before leaving, Xue Ling specially instructed Yun Hui to keep an eye on Huanhuan and not let her run around alone.
Huanhuan stood at the side and heard their conversation clearly. She didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “I’m not a child. Why would I run around? Don’t worry!”
“I’m just worried that you’ll be in danger.”
“This is my house. What danger can I encounter at home? Go. If you don’t leave soon, the sun will set.”
!!
Xue Ling was unhappy. “I haven’t even left, and you’re already urging me to leave. Do you despise me?”
“Yes, I despise you for being so old and naggy.”
Xue Ling received a critical hit.
Huanhuan went on her tiptoes and kissed him on the mouth. “Be careful on the way. Come back early.”
Before she could retreat, Xue Ling hugged her tightly and kissed her hard on the lips.
The surrounding beasts hooted and laughed.
Huanhuan pushed Xue Ling hard, indicating that he should stop.
Only then did he reluctantly let go of her.
No matter how reluctant he was, he couldn’t stop them from parting.
“Be good and wait for us to come back.”
“Mhm.”
Xue Ling spread his wings and flew into the sky. The three brothers also transformed into Silvery Frost White Wolves and ran in the direction Xue Ling flew. Nearly a hundred wolf beasts followed closely behind.
Eggy flew up and let out a crisp cry in the direction her father had left. “Chirp chirp!”
Huanhuan stood at the city gate and watched them leave.
It wasn’t until their figures disappeared from sight that Huanhuan retracted her gaze. Eggy landed on her shoulder. Eggy asked, “When will Daddy be back?”
“It’ll take at least two months to go back and forth.”
“I’ll be a year old by then!”
Huanhuan smiled. “Yes, if your father comes back in time, he can make it for your birthday.”
She asked her youngest daughter what she wanted for her birthday.
Eggy flapped her little wings and shouted excitedly, “I want something shiny!”
Sure enough, this child was obsessed with everything that shone.
Shuang Yin stood upright beside her and watched the interaction between her mother and sister with a smile. When they were done chatting, she asked, “Mom, shall we go back?”
“Mhm.”
Shuang Yin transformed into a Silvery Frost White Wolf and carried Huanhuan back. Yun Hui spread his wings and flew in the sky.
When Shuang Yin saw Yun Hui’s wings, her gaze changed slightly.
They returned home.
When Huanhuan was not around, Shuang Yin stopped Yun Hui and went straight to the point.
“You’re a dragon?”
“Mhm.”
Shuang Yin immediately perked up. “Then do you know a person called Yu Tian? He’s of the same race as you.”
Yun Hui’s gaze drifted for a moment. “I do know Yu Tian.”
“Where is he now?”
“Dead.”
“What? He’s dead?!” Shuang Yin was shocked. She couldn’t believe it. “He’s a dragon. He’s so powerful. How could he die?!”
“Although dragons are powerful, they also die of old age and illness. That’s normal.”
When Huanhuan returned, she saw that Shuang Yin’s eyes were red as if she had just cried. Her heart tightened, and she quickly went forward to ask, “What’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?”
Shuang Yin tried to look normal. “I’m fine. There’s sand in my eyes, so they just feel a little uncomfortable.”
“You should find a decent excuse for lying. There’s no wind in this house. How can sand drift into your eyes?”
Shuang Yin stopped talking.
Seeing that she was unwilling to tell the truth, Huanhuan could only compromise. “If you’re not feeling well, go back to your room and rest for a while. I’ll call you over for dinner.”
“Mhm.”
After Shuang Yin left, Huanhuan asked Yun Hui.
“What did you talk about just now? Why did you make Big Goody cry?”
Yun Hui replied seriously, “She asked me about Yu Tian. I said that Yu Tian was dead, and she cried.”
“So that’s what happened.”
During dinner that night, Shuang Yin was still in a bad mood. She looked unhappy. Yu Tian’s death must have hit her hard.
Huanhuan looked at her worriedly. Even Eggy sensed that something was wrong with her sister. She flew in front of Shuang Yin and said crisply, “Sister, touch me!”
Shuang Yin stroked her feathers. “Good Eggy.”
“Dad says my feathers feel especially comfortable when he touches them. After touching my feathers, don’t you feel much better?”
Shuang Yin picked her up. “I’m not unhappy.”
“Sister, you’re lying. You’re about to cry. You must be very sad.”
Shuang Yin didn’t want to cry, but after hearing Eggy’s words, she felt a lump in her throat.
“My eyes aren’t feeling well. I’ll be fine in a while.”
After dinner, Huanhuan got up and was about to clear the table when Shuang Yin stopped her.
“Let me do it. You’re tired after a busy day. Go back and rest.”
Shuang Yin cleaned up the table and carried the bowls and chopsticks into the kitchen to wash them. After a while, Huanhuan followed with a small stool.
She placed the small stool beside Shuang Yin, lifted her skirt, and sat on it.
From the outside, Huanhuan looked even more tender and pet.i.te. Those who didn’t know better would think that she was Shuang Yin’s sister.
Eggy lay in Huanhuan’s arms, her soybean-sized red eyes shining.
Huanhuan looked up at her eldest daughter in front of her and said in a soft voice, “I have something to tell you.”
Shuang Yin replied as she washed the dishes, “Yes?”
“You might not believe it, but I was actually Yu Tian.”
Shuang Yin paused and looked down at her mother beside her with a helpless expression. “I know you want to comfort me, but you can’t say such unrealistic words to fool me. I’m not a three-year-old child.”
The three-year-old Yun Hui was about to come in when he heard this. He immediately retracted his foot and pretended that he was never here before sneaking away.
Huanhuan tried her best to convince her. “I was really Yu Tian. If you don’t believe me, I can call Little Black over to testify.”
“You’re in cahoots with Uncle Yun Hui. He’ll definitely listen to you.”
“After I died, my soul entered Yu Tian’s body. After that, I lived as Yu Tian for a period of time. I remember the first time you saw him, which was when you were fighting a group of demons. I rushed over and saved you.
“Later, I was worried about your injuries, so I sneaked into the camp that night to treat you.
“After you recovered from your injuries, I was about to leave. But I didn’t expect Sang Ye to bring an army of demons to ambush the camp. I was worried that you would be injured, so I had no choice but to return to the camp and save you from Sang Ye.
“That was when I slapped Sang Ye.”
…
At first, Shuang Yin only thought that her mother was joking, but what her mother said later gradually made Shuang Yin become serious.
Her mother’s recount of the things that happened was indeed true.
If her mother had nothing to do with Yu Tian, how did she know so much?
Could it be that her mother was really Yu Tian?
