Su Chaoyang scratched his little head in confusion. "Eh? Isn’t this Grandaunt? Could I have dialed the wrong number? But Auntie clearly said this was Grandaunt’s phone number. What’s the deal?"
Su Chaoyang hung up before Tang Zhou could respond, double-checked the phone number, and dialed again.
Just as Tang Zhou had been hung up on, the call ca in again. She snorted and answered, preemptively threatening, "Call Grandaunt one more ti, and you’re dead at!"
Su Chaoyang’s tone was even cruder. "Damn it, wrong number again! Did Grandaunt change her number or sothing? If it weren’t for making sure my silly sweet Second Uncle can marry Aunt Tangtang, I wouldn’t bother calling! Hanging up now—don’t pick up random calls!"
"Wait..." Tang Zhou, montarily cowed by the surprisingly fierce, childlike voice on the other end, heard the na Tangtang and said, "Tangtang is my daughter. Who are you? State your na!"
"I am Su Chaoyang, and I never change my na!"
Su Chaoyang?
Never heard of him!
After so thought, Tang Zhou asked, "Who’s your father? And who’s your grandfather?"
Su Chaoyang, sitting with the air of a little overlord on the sofa, swung his short legs cockily. His voice, crisp and arrogant, declared, "My dad is Mo Yinhe, and my grandpa is... um... what’s my grandpa’s na again?"
Tang Zhou understood instantly. "Oh, my goodness, where did this little great-grandnephew spring from? Has my eldest grandnephew found himself another son?"
Su Chaoyang asked impatiently, "So, are you Grandaunt or not?"
"Yes, yes, yes, my dear great-grandnephew, I am your Grandaunt," Tang Zhou affird, despite disliking the title imnsely.
Su Chaoyang frowned, his little brow furrowed. "What’s the deal? One mont you are, the next you’re not? Grandaunt, there’s a wildfire! I did a quick calculation—don’t send anyone for a rescue operation, or many lives will be lost! Tell all the firefighting teams to pull out. Leave the firefighting to my brothers~"
"You’re just a child; how do you know about the wildfire?"
"I saw it with my own eyes, duh! My brothers are all out there rescuing. Brother Xiaobai said if the fire isn’t put out, Second Uncle won’t be able to get a wife. My brothers are saving the day now, Grandaunt! Rember to make sure my Second Uncle gets his wife, got it?"
Do a good deed and not take credit? Not a chance!
"What? Xiaobai went to join the rescue? That child—has he lost his mind?! Doesn’t he know how dangerous it is?"
Xiaobai is only five years old! What if he gets burned?
Tang Zhou said urgently, "Quickly, tell your brothers to stay far away from the wildfire! You children don’t need to handle this. The farther away, the better, do you hear ?"
Su Chaoyang replied in his high-pitched, childish voice, "My brothers are already rescuing! The real priority is to get the other firefighting teams to evacuate, okay? Otherwise, however many people you send will be lost. I’m not kidding you~~ This wildfire is seriously strange~~"
Tang Zhou was in no mood to listen. Her expression turned serious. "Tell your Grandaunt, where are you?"
"Sending you the coordinates now~"
Su Chaoyang sent the coordinates.
Tang Zhou looked at the coordinates. They indicated a location so distance from the town Su Chaoyang was in. She said, "Stay right there. Grandaunt is coming for you."
Tang Zhou hung up, reboarded the helicopter, and directed the pilot to fly to the given coordinates.
Ten minutes later, the pilot exclaid, "What is that?!"
Alerted by the commotion, Tang Zhou looked toward the sky, illuminated by the fierce flas. WOW!
A small White Dragon was circling in mid-air, spouting torrents of rainwater with every breath.
Tang Zhou had only ever seen such a scene on television; it was unheard of in real life.
Tang Zhou was utterly stunned. Could that be her little great-grandnephew, Xiaobai?
Tang Zhou rubbed her eyes hard. Oh my god!
The helicopter continued forward. Soon, the pilot said, "Your Highness, the Empress! Look over there—there’s another one! Is that a dragon? Are there truly dragon gods descending to bless this land?"
Not far away, a Little Golden Dragon erged, riding the clouds and mist from over the sea. Reaching the airspace above the wildfire, it let out a great puff, and Celestial Auspiciousness descended as vast sheets of rain, dousing the flas!
Tang Zhou witnessed this, her heart pounding with excitent!
Just when her husband, Leng Chenmo, was at his wit’s end, their several little great-grandnephews were actually fighting the fire! They were only children, yet they had bravely stepped in to help. Tang Zhou was incredibly moved.
The helicopter continued onward.
Soon after, they spotted a Little Black Dragon. It had just unleashed a fierce downpour and was now flying back towards the sea, where it dove headfirst into the water. Monts later, it surged out from the seawater and, with a mighty roar, flew towards the spreading wildfire, continuing to spray water to extinguish the flas.
And that wasn’t all; a little while later, they spotted a Little Green Dragon.
Good heavens, just how many Little Dragons were out there, fighting the fire?
Tang Zhou’s eyes moistened. She made a video call to her husband, Leng Chenmo. "The little dragon fledglings from Mo Yinhe’s family are putting out the fire! I’ll send you a video."
Tang Zhou recorded several video clips and sent them to Leng Chenmo. He stared at the screen for a long ti without speaking.
He couldn’t believe it. Just when he had been rejecting countless firefighting plans, several Little Dragons were already tirelessly battling the wildfire.
Tang Zhou then added, "Our little great-grandnephew also called. He said to tell the firefighting teams not to enter the mountains. He said to leave the firefighting to them. What do you think?"
Leng Chenmo didn’t respond imdiately; shock had rendered him speechless. Beneath his mature and restrained expression lay an incredible surge of emotion. He was even more astounded by the abilities of the little dragon fledglings, who could truly summon clouds and make rain.
"Is it dangerous for them?"
This was Leng Chenmo’s primary concern. They couldn’t fight the fire by putting children in danger; it wasn’t a burden children should bear.
"It doesn’t seem so for now. They don’t appear to be afraid of fire, and their ability to extinguish it is unquestionable. A large area of the wildfire over here has already been put out. I’ll film it for you."
Tang Zhou fild the vast mountain slopes where the fire had been extinguished.
The extinguished slopes were shrouded in thick, billowing smoke, and visibility was low. Still, it was a far more reassuring sight than peaks engulfed in roaring flas.
The Little White Dragon, Ye Nianbai, emptied his belly’s reserves once more. Though exhausted, the little fellow didn’t complain and continued to fly with all his might towards the sea. Halfway there, his strength gave out. Weakened by such strenuous effort—the first of its kind for him—his small body suddenly began to plumt.
Just then, the Little Golden Dragon flew over, hooked the Little White Dragon’s body with his tail, and carried him to the shore.
The Little Golden Dragon imdiately transford into the shape of a human toddler, supporting Ye Nianbai, who had also reverted to his human toddler form. With a tight frown, he asked, "Are you okay?"
Ye Nianbai, trying to look nonchalant despite his exhaustion, declared cockily, "This young master is fine!"
Ye Jingzhe commanded, "Sit here and rest for twenty minutes."
Ye Nianbai huffed, "This young master is really fine."
"You dare disobey ?" Ye Jingzhe’s voice was cold as an icicle, extrely serious, like a miniature adult.
Ye Nianbai instinctively muttered, "Why should this young master listen to you?"
"I’m the eldest brother!"
"..." Ye Nianbai found himself unable to retort.
But he didn’t want to be outdone; it felt too humiliating.
Ye Jingzhe sat down beside him, crossing his short legs. "I’m tired too," he said. "Let’s rest together. We’ll continue in twenty minutes."
