Even though the small tentacles were all cut off, Yu An and Xie Chiyuan still managed to eat a few bites, despite being watched by Ba Zai.
When Bazai saw that they were willing to eat, the whole baby became incredibly proud.
"Isn't it delicious? I tasted some before delivering it. I could start a street stall now!"
Moreover, setting up a stall only requires asking the vendor for money to buy a small cart; there are almost no other costs.
He supplies his own goods, so he doesn't have to spend any money!
Bazai even looked to the future: "Big brother, I can sell barbecue skewers to support you in the future."
Yu An: "..."
What a filial son!
He decisively dismissed Ba Zai's idea: "Don't even think about setting up a barbecue stall. Once everything is settled, the first thing I'll do is send you back to school."
I don't seek to learn more knowledge, but rather to increase my IQ.
The children all gathered in Xie Chiyuan's room, and Xie Chiyuan let them stay there.
I don't know how much time passed.
After sending the children away, Yu An and Xie Chiyuan hugged each of the heartwarming kids and told them, "Go to sleep and don't stay up late playing on your phones."
As Qiuqiu was walking at the very back, Yu An leaned over and hugged him again just before he was about to leave.
"Chirp chirp, goodnight."
The reason the children all gathered around this time was because Qiuqiu noticed that Xie Chiyuan's mood was off.
Yu An knew that her little chick was very thoughtful, but she didn't expect him to be this thoughtful.
After sending the children away, Yu An turned around and had just reached the bedside when Xie Chiyuan pulled her into his arms.
"An'an, thank you."
Xie Chiyuan suddenly said this out of the blue.
Yu An gently patted his back, her gesture full of comfort.
He could understand what Xie Chiyuan was saying; Xie Chiyuan was thanking him for bringing so many family members to him.
"From the moment we got together, our baby has been both ours."
Yu An gently patted his back and said to him in a gentle tone, "I still remember when you said you wanted to save up for the kids' 'baby book'."
Yu An always felt that being able to have Xie Chiyuan's love was the greatest blessing God had ever given him.
Xie Chiyuan's love for him was steadfast and all-encompassing.
He had clearly killed many mutants before, and he was on the opposite side of mutants.
However, when Xie Chiyuan was with him and learned that his baby was a mutant, he chose to raise the baby with him.
Xie Chiyuan takes raising the children as his responsibility, and the children gradually see his efforts and accept him as a member of the family.
The original gloom has dissipated most of its original intensity without anyone noticing.
Xie Chiyuan lowered his head and kissed Yu An's forehead. He whispered, "An'an, with you all here, I suddenly feel like there's no obstacle I can't overcome."
Yu An was also glad that he thought that way.
The atmosphere in the room wasn't as heavy as it had been initially, thanks to the little ones' interruption.
Xie Chiyuan could even recount more details about his time in the North District without changing his tone.
"They have a four-zone contract. The contract states that they will train me, use me, and finally... kill me."
“My father signed this contract, and he left behind a token, which is now in my possession.”
Xie Chiyuan took out the jade ring from his pocket and handed it to Yu An.
Seeing that he was willing to talk about this, Yu An followed up by asking, "Are you sure this is your father's thing?"
"Yes, I'm sure. He has this ring in his old photos."
Yu An thought about how good Yin Tan and Ruan Ke were to Xie Chiyuan, and still couldn't quite believe it.
"Xie Chiyuan."
After chatting with him for a while, Yu An said, "There's no point in us talking like this anymore. When we get back to the West District, you can just ask your dad."
"If there's any misunderstanding, just talk it out face to face."
No matter how much Xie Chiyuan speculates or thinks now, it won't do any real good.
He couldn't suddenly break with Yin Tan and then abandon the West District.
Xie Chiyuan was able to listen to what Yu An said.
With Yu An's patient guidance, Xie Chiyuan slowly nodded.
"I'll ask around when I get back to the West District."
Even if he has the token in his hand now, what he has heard is only one side of the story from the North District boss.
What if these one-sided statements cannot be taken as true?
Having figured these things out, Xie Chiyuan's gloomy expression lessened somewhat.
Yu An lifted her face from his embrace and looked at him intently.
"Xie Chiyuan, get some sleep this time. Don't think too much. You'll feel better when you wake up."
After they returned, Xie Chiyuan appeared to have his eyes closed, but he was actually not asleep at all.
After experiencing something like this, the first thing to do is to take good care of your health.
The worse your physical condition, the worse your mental state. And the worse your mental state, the less rest you get, which in turn worsens your physical condition.
This is a vicious cycle.
Yu An didn't want her boyfriend to get caught up in this cycle.
He coaxed Xie Chiyuan to sleep, saying, "We can... just once."
Xie Chiyuan refused. He enjoyed being intimate with Yu An, but he didn't want Yu An to be intimate with him just to comfort him.
Intimacy should make both parties feel comfortable, not be a one-sided sacrifice.
"Don't force yourself, I'm not that fragile."
Xie Chiyuan kissed Yu An's cheek tenderly, then held Yu An in his arms and lay down on the bed with him.
"I feel very safe when you hold me like this while I sleep."
Yu An: "..."
Yu An was deeply moved to see that her boyfriend was still thinking of her even at this moment.
He kissed Xie Chiyuan's chin, his beautiful eyes glistening with moisture.
"Xie Chiyuan, I don't feel forced."
He genuinely didn't feel forced at all. Xie Chiyuan was so wonderful, and all he wanted to do now was be close to Xie Chiyuan.
Xie Chiyuan still didn't touch him, even though he was being teased and was desperately trying to restrain himself.
Yu An bit his chin, then his lip, and then the tip of his nose. Finally, she bit his Adam's apple.
Xie Chiyuan's breathing became increasingly heavy uncontrollably, but his self-control was still insufficient.
He didn't make it to the end.
This night was exceptionally rich and exhausting for Yu An.
The more exhausted he was, the better Xie Chiyuan's spirits became.
As dawn approached, Yu An clutched the blanket with both hands, feeling utterly exhausted.
"I want to sleep, Xie Chiyuan, I want to sleep."
"Okay, let's sleep together."
They didn't fall asleep until dawn, so you can imagine how long it took for the two of them to wake up.
The children wandered around the door several times, but seeing that it remained closed, they surprisingly refrained from knocking.
The children were whispering to each other not far away.
Ba Zai said confidently, "After we left yesterday, Xie Chiyuan must have been moved to tears!"
"He probably cried half the night, which is why he got up so late today."
Bazai felt that he was absolutely amazing yesterday; none of the other kids gave him a gift as good as his!
Seven, who had come closer, looked at the closed door and seemed to have some experience.
He hesitated for a moment, then asked slowly, "Has my elder brother not gotten up yet?"
"Neither my elder brother nor Xie Chiyuan got up, and their door was never opened."
Hearing this, Qi Zai continued slowly, "Yesterday, besides us coaxing Xie Chiyuan, Big Brother was probably coaxing Xie Chiyuan as well."
As for how adults appease their partners, there are only a few methods. But I can't tell the kids.
"Well, I don't think Xie Chiyuan was moved to tears."
If anyone was crying in the room yesterday, it could only have been their eldest brother.
Seven didn't make this point clear.
But Liu Zai glanced at him, seemingly understanding what he hadn't said.
“We don’t need to stay here. Our brother will come looking for us when he wakes up.”
It's not right for him to be constantly staring at the door of the room.
Six called the cubs away. The little fox cub looked at the door of the room, then at the backs of the cubs.
He frowned, but still followed.
It was past one o'clock in the afternoon.
The children couldn't wait for their older brother and Xie Chiyuan to come out, so they all went back to take a nap.
Yu An woke up at this time.
