That night, when the three arrived in Hecheng, it was already very late.

Because he had to take the program crew's car to the village early tomorrow morning, Lao Xu found a hotel in the city closest to the village.

However, hotels in these third- and fourth-tier cities do not have presidential suites, so Mr. Xu had no choice but to book two standard rooms.

"God Yao, I'll have to inconvenience you and Chu Ci by having them sleep in the same room tonight."

Chu Ci was slightly embarrassed.

Although the presidential suite was also a room, it was very large, and he and Zhong Yao were far apart, and there was a wall separating them, so they couldn't see each other.

But this standard room...

Although the facilities in the room were good, the two beds were very close to each other, separated only by a small bedside table.

Zhong Yao didn't react. Before she became an adult, she followed Senior Brother Jiang out, and when they couldn't book a room at the last minute, the two of them stayed in a standard room.

Zhong Yao summoned her children, went into the bathroom, washed up, and fell directly on the bed without changing into pajamas.

The next moment, the three children took off their shoes one by one and lay down beside Zhong Yao.

Zhong Yao held Bixi in one hand and held his phone in the other, looking at some news. He let Amber press her whole body on him and buried her little head in Zhong Yao's neck.

Yueguang took off her shoes and socks slowly. When she noticed Chu Ci's gaze, she turned her head and gave him an indifferent look. Then she turned back to fold her socks, put them at the end of the bed, and then lay down on the other side of Zhong Yao.

Chu Ci stared at it blankly, and suddenly felt that this scene was very warm.

"What are you looking at?" After Zhong Yao replied to the message and put down his phone, he saw Chu Ci with a strange expression on his face.

"Nothing, nothing." Chu Ci waved his hand embarrassedly, "I just remembered what my mother said to me before."

Zhong Yao suddenly remembered that Chu Ci’s mother and her mother were buried in the same cemetery, with their tombstones facing each other.

"My grandmother only gave birth to my mother. When my mother was young, my grandparents were busy with work, so they sent her to my great uncle's house. My great uncle's house has a cousin who is about the same age as my mother. They have a very good relationship and sleep in the same bed every day."

Thinking of this, Chu Ci sighed, "It's just that after growing up, some things have changed."

"My cousin had a conflict with my family and ran away from home. My mother also married someone far away in the capital. When I was in my teens, she died of illness and the two of them never met again."

Zhong Yao was not very good at comforting people, so after thinking for a while, she asked, "Can I lend you Amber to hold for a while?"

Amber raised her little head, sat on Zhong Yao's waist and looked at her resentfully, then turned her head to stare at Chu Ci.

Suddenly, she opened her mouth slightly and bared her teeth at him.

For some reason, Chu Ci shrank back in fear and waved his hands to refuse: "No, no need for Yao Shen."

"Okay, I'll go to sleep then."

She hugged her three children and fell asleep. Soon, the sound of her even breathing could be heard.

Chu Ci looked at it for a while and couldn't help but smile.

It's very strange. Zhong Yao is just a minor, but he always gives him a strange sense of security.

Chu Ci entered the bathroom carefully, trying not to make too much noise.

After he finished cleaning up, he lay down on the bed with his clothes on. When he turned his head, he could see four people on the other bed.

Chu Ci smiled and closed his eyes.

midnight.

Zhong Yao opened his eyes.

Moonlight's silver-blue eyes flashed a beautiful blue halo under the dim light in the room.

Amber sat up and rubbed her eyes sleepily.

Zhong Yao patted her gently and whispered, "Go to sleep."

Amber blinked and moved closer to Tourmaline, and the two little ones snuggled together and fell asleep.

Zhong Yao looked at the moonlight again.

Yue Guang shook her head lightly, raised her hand, a blue light flashed across the room, and a silver-blue sword appeared in her hand.

The sword body is as transparent as silver moonlight, and the hilt is inlaid with a blue moonstone, emitting a soft silver-blue glow.

The tip of the sword was sharp, making a clanging sound as it was swung, pointing straight at Chu Ci's neck.

Zhong Yao stared at the moonstone on the sword in a daze for a moment. She felt as if she knew something, but the truth was still shrouded in a vague veil and she could not see it clearly.

As soon as Chu Ci opened his eyes, he saw a shining long sword hanging in front of him.

Chu Ci took a deep breath and looked in another direction. He saw a person sitting on another bed. He couldn't see his face clearly, but he could see the golden threads swirling around his fingertips.

"You are a mutant?!"

Zhong Yao chuckled: "9, 10."

The next moment, Chu Ci closed his eyes.

Yue Guang stood barefoot on the bedside table and stared at Chu Ci for a while before retracting his sword.

Zhong Yao took back the golden string.

"Yueguang, go to sleep. Wang Zhendong probably won't come again tonight."

Moonlight nodded, "He shouldn't dare to act rashly before he is sure of his mother's abilities."

A good night's sleep.

The first thing Chu Ci did when he woke up was to look at the bed next to him. Only Yueguang was awake and was putting on her socks.

Chu Ci greeted politely, "Um, good morning?"

So far, although Yao Shen acknowledged that this was her special ability, he had not formally introduced her three children to them.

Chu Ci only knew the names of the other two children from the words that Zhong Yao did not cover up. Chu Ci really didn't know the name of this cold and lonely child.

Yueguang nodded as a response, then turned around and gently woke Zhong Yao up.

"Mom, wake up."

Breakfast was still bought in advance by Lao Xu.

Zhong Yao also told Amber that she hoped the three of them could stay outside today.

Most of the puppet's power comes from the puppeteer, so Zhong Yao is not worried that Amber will not have the strength to support the barrier for a whole day.

Amber agreed excitedly and asked, "If I find someone who is harmful to my mother, can I kill them without asking for permission?"

Chu Ci was so scared that he accidentally spilled a cup of soy milk, which dripped down the table and onto Amber's skirt.

The little guy waved at Chu Ci, and was quickly thrown into the puppet space by Zhong Yao.

"Okay, just pretend I didn't say anything."

Amber was sulking in the space.

Before leaving the room, Lao Xu shook his cell phone with an embarrassed look on his face.

Zhong Yao paused and asked sincerely, "Brother Xu, do you want to go to the bathroom?"

Old Xu: “…”

"No."

Chu Ci also raised his eyebrows and asked, "Then why do you look constipated?"

Old Xu sighed: "I just got the news this morning. Chu Ci, do you know who will be the other guest stars in this episode?"

Chu Ci was stunned for a moment, "Do you have a grudge against me?"

Old Xu nodded: "Gao Hongwei."

Chu Ci curled his lips speechlessly, "Him."

Zhong Yao stood at the door, tidying his hair leisurely, not caring at all about what they said.

Old Xu: "God Yao, aren't you curious?"

Zhong Yao shook his head: "I'm not interested in other people's secrets."

Because she has secrets of her own and doesn't want others to be interested in her secrets, she never explores other people's secrets.

But the more she did this, the more Old Xu wanted to tell her.
