When they got home, they asked their mother and learned that they weren't wild children without a father; their father had just gone out on a mission, and it was a very dangerous and important one.

Their father is a great hero!

However, they miss their father very much and wish he could be by their side.

"An'an." Lu Siyuan's tone was a little dejected.

Perhaps it was a telepathic connection between the twins, but at this moment, the two little ones were thinking exactly the same thing: Lu Si'an was also missing her father.

But they were all very obedient children. Their mother once said that the matter concerning their father was the second biggest secret in the family, after their own private space, and that it was not to be talked about outside.

They are very well-behaved and listen to their mother.

“Brother, I know, it’s okay,” Lu Si’an said, holding her brother’s hand tightly, wanting to give him strength.

"What are you two whispering about?" Qiao Xinruo asked.

"It's nothing!" the two little ones said in unison.

They will never tell anyone; it's a secret!

Even if you feel very sad, you can get over it on your own.

Qiao Xinruo didn't press further, thinking that the two little ones were probably a bit tired after their excitement wore off, after all, they were still just kids.

They played for a long time before finally going home.

On the way back, they were just as careful, making sure to cover up Hua Hua until they finally arrived home safely and entered the space.

"Great! Hua Hua's first time going out is wonderful!" the two little ones cheered.

In the afternoon at the amusement park, Lu Siyuan and Lu Si'an were so saddened by their longing for their father that they seemed to have no feelings for him.

Until evening, until Su Yueya came home, until the whole family finished dinner, until Su Yueya coaxed the little ones to rest as usual.

"Mommy! Mommy!"

Lu Siyuan and Lu Si'an each took one of their arms and clung to Su Yueya affectionately.

She heard that the two little ones had gone to the amusement park that afternoon and probably had a great time, wanting to share their experience with her. She listened with a smile, wanting to share in the children's joy.

However, when Lu Siyuan opened his mouth, he said something that had nothing to do with the amusement park.

"Mom, when will Dad come back?" Lu Siyuan looked at Su Yueya with pleading eyes, his eyes still glistening with tears, probably because he missed his father terribly.

Lu Siyuan looks just like Lu Zhengjun when he was a child. Now, with that face, he stares longingly at Su Yueya. Isn't that another kind of "torture" for her?

When it comes to missing Lu Zhengjun, probably no one can compare to Su Yueya.

Now, "Lu Zhengjun" is asking when Lu Zhengjun will return. This feeling is too strange for Su Yueya and has a great impact on her.

As a result, she couldn't control her emotions in front of the children, and the first word she uttered was choked with emotion. Fortunately, she managed to regain her composure and adjust her emotions.

"Why are you suddenly asking this?" Su Yueya asked.

She also gave herself some time to think about how to answer in a way that would improve the children's mood and prevent them from becoming even more disappointed.

Because Su Yueya didn't know the exact time, she couldn't tell the children when their father would appear, but she knew that Lu Zhengjun would return.

This is still Leng Yingying's inner thoughts revealed.

“Because when we went to the amusement park today, all the other kids were with their parents, so… my brother and I really want you and Dad to take us there!” Lu Si’an explained.

“Although my aunt and grandfather are very good, it would be even better if it were my parents,” Lu Siyuan said, feeling wronged.

Su Yueya felt as if she had been punched in the gut, and her nose instantly stung with tears.

It's really unfair to those two sensible little ones!

"That day will come, and your parents will definitely take you there!"

“Daddy will be back soon, Xiaoyuan and An'an. Mommy knows you miss Daddy a lot, just like Mommy does. Let’s cheer for Daddy together and hope he comes back soon, okay?” Su Yueya said, hugging the two little ones tightly.

The mother and her two children huddled together tightly.

Leng Yingying's inner thoughts revealed that Lu Zhengjun would return approximately three years after he finished his mission.

In other words, when Lu Siyuan and Lu Si'an are around two years old, the separation of their family of four will come to an end.

However, the exact time remains unknown.

Therefore, Su Yueya could only say "soon" and could not give a specific time.

Otherwise, if Lu Zhengjun fails to appear before the children on that day, they will be very disappointed and sad.

"Okay." The brother and sister pouted, their expressions suggesting they weren't too happy.

"Mom, will Dad really be back soon?" Perhaps out of reluctance, or perhaps because she desperately wanted her father to come back soon, Lu Si'an asked again.

"Really." Su Yueya nodded, speaking earnestly, but also uncertainly.

After all, Leng Yingying's true feelings were only briefly mentioned as "three years later," but three years and a few days is completely different from three years and a few months.

"Xiao Yuan, An An, you can't tell anyone about this, because Dad is on a mission—"

"The mission is dangerous. We must protect Dad and keep it a secret!"

Before Su Yueya could finish her instructions, the two sensible little ones had already chimed in.

“Mom, we remember everything,” Lu Siyuan said.

“Yes, An’an will definitely not tell anyone, not even Grandpa and Grandma!” Lu Si’an said with an adorable expression.

"So good." Su Yueya touched their little faces, while also looking forward to that day.

The brother and sister had been waiting for this moment ever since they returned from the amusement park, wanting to ask their mother.

At this moment, the answer is there, but so is disappointment.

They didn't know how fast their mother meant by "soon," because they couldn't wait for their father to come back tomorrow, and ideally, they would see him as soon as they woke up.

Even so, the brother and sister did not throw a tantrum. Instead, they slowly closed their eyes as Su Yueya gently coaxed them to sleep.

Emotions come quickly and go quickly.

After waking up, the two little ones' longing for their father vanished like the wind.

Today, only Qiao Hanxue was at home with the two children. After taking care of them and feeding them breakfast, Qiao Hanxue planned to read some medical books while the two children played with the kitten.

Since they'll be staying in the space anyway, and the two kids are well-behaved, nothing bad will likely happen.

"Grandpa, go read your book," Lu Siyuan said sensibly, holding Lu Si'an's hand and waving goodbye to his grandfather.

"Goodbye, Grandpa!" Lu Si'an called out.

Qiao Hanxue: "..."

Aren't they all in the same space? It's just that he's in the library while his grandchildren are playing outside.
