In the evening, Xiu Er's tutoring class officially ended today, and the little white wolf bowed politely and respectfully to Morris, and then ran back to Xie Yuan's side.

"Baby, you learned a lot today, and you must continue to work hard in the days to come." Xie Yuan touched Shuer's head and said, then looked up at Morris, "Thank you very much, Mr. Morris .”

"It's nothing, you're too polite." Morris shook his head, and every time he heard this person's thanks, he would feel very uncomfortable. "It's getting late, I'll take you home."

"Then as a thank you, please have dinner at my house tonight?" Xie Yuan smiled and offered the invitation.

Morris was about to refuse when he was interrupted by Xie Yuan.

"Mr. Morris, this is my heart."

Seeing the persistence in those bright black eyes, Morris was taken aback, unable to say any more words of refusal, and nodded slightly after a moment of silence.

Xie Yuan was satisfied, and the group of four returned the same way.

Along the way, Xie Yuan found that Morris distanced himself from him without a trace, and he felt warm in his heart. He was able to respect people he had known for a long time, not to inquire about other people's privacy, and to make considerate and self-conscious avoidance. Such a person It's really worth paying close attention to.

So Xie Yuan let go of the hands of the two sons, slowed down and let the sons walk in front, and he slowly stood side by side with Morris, and when the other party was about to avoid him, he suddenly opened his mouth.

"I am fine."

The short three words made Morris startled for a moment, lowered his eyelids slightly to cover the emotions in his eyes, and said after a while: "Actually, it is also possible to have classes with Xiu Er in the city."

"But the outskirts of the forest are better, isn't it?" Xie Yuan instantly understood what he wanted to express. The other party knew that he was going with him today because he was worried that Shuer would be alone with someone he hadn't known for a long time. After the type resisted, he said such words, just to make himself feel at ease so that he didn’t have to follow, after all, he could meet people who knew Xiu Er everywhere in the city, “Mr. Morris, you are really a very good person. "

"You don't have to force yourself." Morris said in a deep voice.

"I don't feel forced." Xie Yuan smiled and looked at him sideways, his eyes were calm and sincere, "You should have seen it, I'm a little scared of your beast shape, but please don't think too much, it's not for you. You. I had an accident many years ago that made me terrified of all orcs in their giant lycanthropy form for a long time, but it took me time and work to get over that fear, and I thought I'm already cured, I didn't expect... But since I can overcome it once, I can overcome it the second time, and a wolf orc is rare in Ula City, so of course I have to make good use of it." Xie Yuan said, and said to him playfully. He blinked.

Morris didn't know what to say for a moment, and after a moment of silence, he said, "That accident... must have caused you great pain, right?" There was hidden obscurity in his voice.

"it's already over."

The temperature of the setting sun is warm but not hot, but it can't compare to the open-minded smile on the face of the black-haired young man.

"Father, hurry up, I'm hungry." Heyman's voice came from the front, Xie Yuan responded quickly, and the two adults quickly walked a few steps to catch up with the children.

Going back to Xie Yuan’s two-story building, he walked around to the back of the house and stepped up the stairs to the second floor. Morris looked at the small brown door. There were two spider plants hanging on both sides of the door, and there were some lovely designs on the door. The small note, with immature and correct handwriting, date and message, Morris can almost imagine how warm and elegant the home behind this door is.

And the fact is just as he imagined, warm main colors, simple design, the house does not look big but almost perfectly utilizes all the places, sharp things such as table corners are covered with a layer of soft cloth, Obviously, it is to prevent the two children from accidentally injuring themselves when they are playing.

"Mr. Morris, please sit down. You can rest for a while. I can cook quickly." Taking Morris to the sofa in the living room and sitting down, Xie Yuan instructed the two children, "Then the guests It's up to the two of you to say hello, and Dad will cook."

"Abba, don't worry, go." Xiu Er and Heyman promised together.

Xie Yuan and Morris nodded, turned around and entered the kitchen.

Morris originally thought that the greeting of the two children was to sit down and talk with him, but he didn't expect that the two little people looked good, one went to boil hot water, and the other took out a set of tea sets and tea leaves from the cabinet placed in front of him.

While waiting for the water to boil, Heyman, who was in charge of making tea, asked Morris, "Uncle Morris, there are only two kinds of black tea and scented tea at home now. I don't know which one you want to drink?"

"Black tea is fine, thank you."

Then he saw the delicate and beautiful little man took the boiling water from Xiu Er and began to make tea in a decent manner. The movements were skillful and even graceful, and he had obviously received formal guidance. When Morris After taking a sip of black tea, I felt a little surprised, not to mention that the skill of making the tea is not bad, as soon as I drink this tea, I know that it is not an ordinary product that everyone can drink, and I am puzzled by the residents of Xie Yuan, a small remote city How could there be this kind of black tea at home? I suddenly remembered that Xiuer mentioned that his grandfather was a beastman named Barit and the shape of a red dragon, so it is not surprising that Xie Yuan, as his child, can afford this kind of tea.

Morris, who thought he had figured it out, took another sip of tea, and looked up to meet Heyman's black eyes, which were obviously inherited from Xie Yuan. Although he had a pretty little face, the look of expectation in his eyes But betrayed his true little thoughts.

Morris paused for a moment, then said to him seriously: "It's delicious, and the skill of making tea is great."

Hyman's eyes flickered a few times for a moment, but his expression was still cold and he didn't smile. At this moment, Xiuer came out of the kitchen, holding a tray with several plates of snacks in his hand.

"Uncle Morris, please have some snacks. They are all salty and fragrant shortbread, which are just for your stomach." Xiu Er said like offering a treasure.

Morris also picked one out and put it in his mouth. The taste was unexpectedly good, which made people's eyes shine. It gave him a general understanding of Xie Yuan's craftsmanship, and at the same time, he had some insights into tonight's dinner. Not low expectations.

Drinking tea and eating snacks, Morris really didn't have many opportunities to get along with the cubs, so he didn't know what to talk about at this time, and the two children usually only have experience in greeting children. Even an adult who is too familiar with it is also a little helpless.

In the end, Heyman made a suggestion, "Will Uncle Morris want to play a game with us?" An adult who is willing and patient to play with the children is a good person, and he can continue to investigate.

"What are you playing?" Morris responded quickly after being taken aback for a moment.

"Hmm...how about Uncle Morris, come with us to the toy room to have a look, there are many toys that Dad specially asked to make for us." Xiu Er said with a smile, his tone was showing off.

Morris thought it was interesting, so he nodded and followed the two children into what they called the 'toy room'.

After entering, he understood why this room had such a name. There were all kinds of toys on each shelf of a cabinet against the wall, many of which he didn’t even recognize. The floor was covered with soft carpets. There are two sets of desks and chairs side by side next to the window, and there is a small blackboard and a large bookcase next to it. It is also a place for children to study.

To enter this room, you need to take off your shoes. The comfortable and soft touch from the soles of your feet makes Morris’s heart twitch. The fur of soft ball beasts that live in the deep grasslands is the best material for carpets. It is extremely fast and difficult. They were captured and bred not many and sold at a high price. Such a large one is rare even in cities above four stars, and he knew a little bit more about Xie Yuan's doting on children.

When Shure and Heyman proudly introduced those toys to him one by one, when he knew that those unknown and novel toys were all designed by Xie Yuan, his heart was shaken. Any item can glimpse Xie Yuan's deep and strong love for the two children.

The twins did not ignore the shocked expression that Morris forgot to hide, and looked at each other with some satisfaction. They knew that no one would not be surprised after visiting their toy room. All kinds of envy, jealousy and hatred, even adults are no exception now, this feeling of being a winner in life is really cool.

"Uncle Morris, let's play checkers." Heyman picked out one from the chess cabinet, and Xiuer pulled Morris to sit cross-legged on the ground. Lisi understood the three of them and started playing.

When Xie Yuan put the dishes on the dining table, he found that the people in the living room were gone. After a little thought, he knew where the two sons had brought the guests. With a step, he found the person in the toy room.

Seeing one big and two young people surrounding the small chessboard, with the same concentration on their faces, the two wolf tails of different colors and thicknesses on the carpet coincidentally sway gently at the same frequency, and the atmosphere in the room is peaceful and peaceful. Warm, Xie Yuan even had the illusion that the tall orc was originally a member of the family, and then shook his head to make fun of his wild thoughts, and raised his hand to lightly knock on the door, attracting the attention of the three of them.

The three raised their heads at the same time, Xie Yuan looked at the three faces unconsciously startled, because for a moment just now, he actually felt that Morris and his two sons were somewhat similar, but the thought just flashed by. It was quickly left behind by him, "The two children and the big friend, shouldn't it be time for dinner?"

"Here we come." Xiu Er and Heyman said in unison, and then they put down the chess pieces in their hands and stood up in unison.

From this small detail, Morris can conclude that Xie Yuan has taught the child very well. After all, it is a very laborious task for a child of this age to ask him to eat when he is playing, but Xie Yuan only needs to It was done with a cry, and at the dinner table, the good eating habits of the two children made him even more sure of this.

The meal was enjoyed by both the host and the guests. What Morris did not expect was that the cleaning and washing up after the meal would be done by the two children together. He understood that Xie Yuan was not just pampering the children endlessly, but also They exercised their abilities in life, and I admired this father a little more in my heart.

"Mr. Xie Yuan, thank you for your hospitality tonight." After playing the game of checkers with the two children, Morris sat for a while and got up to leave.

"Mr. Morris, you are too polite." Xie Yuan and the child sent him to the door, and said with a smile, "I really hope you will appreciate it again."

"If I come here a few more times, I'm afraid that I will be fascinated by Mr. Xie Yuan's craftsmanship, and I will feel uncomfortable if I can't eat it in the future." Morris made a rare joke, and his resolute face softened a little.

"If that's the case, I'll be very proud." Xie Yuan felt his left sleeve being pulled a little as soon as he finished speaking, and he lowered his head to find that it was Xiu Er, "What's wrong with the baby?"

"Abba, why do you still call Mr. Uncle Morris? It feels so awkward. Didn't you say that everyone who can invite you home for dinner is a friend? Since you are a friend, why do you still call him so unfamiliar? The other party?" Xiu Er asked strangely.

Only then did the two adults realize this, and looked at each other with some embarrassment. Xie Yuan spoke first, "It's true, then Mr. Morris, if you don't mind, please call me A Yuan. My family and friends call me that.”

"You can just call me Morris." Morris paused, "A Yuan."

"Okay, Morris, see you tomorrow, baby Manman, say goodbye to uncle."

"Goodbye, Uncle Morris."

"Goodbye."

Seeing Morris turn around and take a step, Xie Yuan also closed the door, so he didn't see the tall orc walking a few steps before stopping and turning his head to look back.

With the five keen senses of a beastman, he could almost clearly hear the voices of children and adults talking, joking and playing together in the room, so happy and carefree, full of warmth and happiness.

Morris thought that even if the other parent was absent, Xie Yuan could still raise the child well and live happily, which is good, so the absence of the other parent does not seem to be a bad thing.

But... is that really the case?
