Under normal circumstances, the longer people live, the more nostalgic they beco, especially the elderly. Once they reach a certain age, all that remains are mories.
However, the elders of the Demon Clan give you a very special feeling. Despite their ages all already being in triple digits, with the oldest among them, Old Silver, being over seven hundred years old,
they are incredibly open to new things. When Zhou Zelin led them through the V-shaped passageway from the nightclub basent to the ground level, these centuries-old demons were dumbfounded.
Staring with mouths agape at the brightly lit, hedonistic world around them.
At this point, night had already fallen.
Passing by Zhou Zelin, you took Xiao iyu into a taxi.
Just as you got into the taxi, the driver couldn’t stop sneaking peeks at Xiao iyu through the rear-view mirror.
Since becoming a wife and mother, this female goblin has beco more enchanting and radiant, with an added unique charm. Any male creature couldn’t help but take a few extra glances at her.
"Hey, driver, if you don’t start driving soon, that guy behind us is probably going to co up and punch you."
The road was ant to be one-way, but the taxi driver, busy ogling Xiao iyu, had forgotten to even start driving.
"Oh, right, right, right."
The taxi driver quickly nodded and the car soon left the alley and joined the main road. The driver couldn’t help sneaking another glance at Xiao iyu before asking you, "Where are we headed?"
"Number 37."
"Which number 37?"
"Ghost House No.37."
The taxi ca to a sudden halt, and the driver looked at you with a shocked face: "Ghost House No.37!?"
Anticipating such a reaction, you imdiately said with a smile, "Just drive us nearby, that’s all."
"Okay, okay."
Although the taxi driver really wanted to refuse the fare, after so thought, he ultimately decided against it.
Moreover, ever since you ntioned Ghost House No.37, the taxi driver no longer dared to look at Xiao iyu.
In the driver’s mind, only a goblin could be so beautiful.
You hadn’t made a phone call in advance, so when you pushed open the door and stood in the living room with Xiao iyu, who was holding the baby, everyone sitting in the living room watching variety shows and chatting was stunned.
Completely stunned.
For at least a dozen seconds!
It was as if the air had frozen at that mont.
At this ti, the living room was arranged like this: an eighty-plus-inch TV screen was placed on a mahogany cabinet, with a mahogany coffee table in the middle and two rows of sofas, big and small, on either side.
Right now, your mother was sitting between Zhao’er and Xian Qianling, whispering about won’s secrets, while your father was watching a variety show with Xiao Feng and Little Qinniang. Lin Panxia had originally been playing gas on her tablet while eating chips, but at this mont, due to excessive surprise, she had just put a chip into her delicate mouth without having ti to chew it.
"Um, I’m back."
Almost instantly, everyone rushed over to Xiao iyu, forcibly squeezing you to the side.
"Back off, all of you!"
Your mom extended her hand with a domineering gesture and threw your father and Xiao Feng to the side, then looked at the baby in the swaddle with a gentle radiance on her face.
"i’er, co, let mom hold the baby."
Xiao iyu nodded and handed the baby over to your mother.
As your mother looked at the baby in her arms, her eyes suddenly moistened. She stretched out her hand and gently touched the baby’s slightly chubby and rosy cheeks: "Oh, my little one must recognize grandma, not shy at all."
And at that mont, the child grasped your mother’s outstretched finger with their chubby little hand and gently sucked on it.
Then, in a tone full of nostalgia, she said, "Mu Yun was always this greedy when he was little."
"Mom, the baby must be hungry, let feed her," Xiao iyu said. Upon hearing this, your mother glanced at Xiao iyu’s towering peaks and nodded, "Hmm, even if you have plenty of breast milk, don’t always let him drink it. After all, the nutritional components of breast milk are related to the mother’s diet. You should also feed him more formula regularly."
Xian Qianling imdiately responded, "Little Yun is just now in Finland, let her bring back so formula."
Lin Panxia looked at the child and asked in a babyish voice, "Elder sister, is this a boy or a girl?"
Without waiting for Xiao iyu to answer, your mother confidently declared, "No need to guess, it must be a boy."
You were startled and asked, "Mom, how can you be so certain?"
Your mother extended her wet left hand and said with a wry smile, "The little guy just peed all over my hand."
"I’ll go buy diapers!"
Xian Qianling turned around and dashed out.
"Wait for , Sister Ling, I’ll go too!" Lin Panxia also followed out, adding, "I’ve finished my chips."
Just as everyone was crowding around the baby, your father ca over and patted your shoulder, saying, "Have you nad the child?"
As soon as the head of the family spoke, everyone simultaneously turned to look at you.
Well, as soon as the topic of naming ca up, you imdiately felt a headache.
"This... As for the na, I’ve actually been thinking about it all the way here, but these days, it seems very hard to choose a na. Most of them end up being common."
Xiao Feng jokingly said with a smile, "Since there will be duplicates anyway, if you’re going to duplicate, might as well make it cool. How about naming him Li Bai?"
Xiao iyu and your mother fiercely glared at him, the latter even raising her hand, almost ready to express her dissatisfaction with actions.
At that mont, everyone fell silent, all deep in thought.
Naming is a technical task; the na must sound nice, catchy, and also carry a profound aning.
Just when all of you were furrowing your brows, Zhao’er suddenly spoke up, "How about Jingxing?"
"Jingxing?"
Xiao iyu turned her head towards Zhao’er, knowing that despite having a child, she still couldn’t shake Zhao’er’s status in the family, and thus never considered the vulgar tactic of competing for affection.
"The ’Jing’ of scenery, the ’Xing’ of journey?" your mother asked.
"Yes," Zhao’er nodded, "Grandpa is Man Cang, Dad is Song of Navigation, then there’s Mu Yun. For the child’s na, Jingxing should represent the direction and ideals of the next generation."
After exchanging glances with your father and mother, you all clapped your hands at the sa ti: "Good, let’s na him Jingxing!"
Xiao iyu also liked the na, playing with her energetic son, she said with a giggle, "Little Jingxing, you have to grow up healthily and happily."
The arrival of the child naturally beca the focal point of the family, followed by your mother’s enforced orders.
On the third day, bright and early, she pulled you out of bed: "You have one week to sort out the house situation, this is an order!"
Getting a manor in a week is a killer task; upon hearing this news, the won in your family all expressed they could offer a loan with interest.
Lin Panxia: "Brother Mu Yun, I can lend you money, oh, but I want to have a child too."
Xian Qianling: "Actually, I’ve also saved so money, and if it’s not enough, I can get so from my parents, but I need a good reason..."
Xiao iyu: "I have plenty of money, but Mom said you have to earn it yourself. Sorry, kiddo’s dad."
Zhao’er: "During your absence, I’ve gradually taken control of Red Mansion, and its funds are also very abundant. How about I secretly transfer it to your na?"
"Eh, forget it, I don’t want to be killed by Mom. With her stubbornness, not even a few hundred bulls could budge her."
In the end, Wu Qiyi, who was far away in Europe, called you: "Actually, what you need is a relatively quiet environnt and, given that there are many people at ho, the population around should not be too complex; the simpler, the better. In fact, you could simply buy a plot of land in a suburb with developed transportation, and then build your own. Open Gate Sect is at your command, can’t you just create your own manor? As for the paperwork, just have people from Chu Sect handle it. After all, you are now the Sect Leader of Chu Sect; you can’t be too shabby."
After all, she’s your childhood sweetheart, spot-on with her advice, like a wake-up call from a dream. You kissed the phone repeatedly and, without any sha, added, "Er Ya is indeed the best. A kiss for you! When you co back, let’s make a baby too."
