Unconsciously, time passed quietly. Aunt Yu looked at the sky and said:

"Hey, we've been out for so long, it's time to go back to the guesthouse."

Only then did everyone realize that they had indeed been out for quite a while.

After returning to the guesthouse, everyone enjoyed a sumptuous lunch together.

The children had used up too much energy playing in the morning and were now very sleepy. They climbed into bed and soon fell into a sweet dream.

Qin Wan sat quietly beside the bed, gazing softly at the children who were immersed in sweet dreams.

Their little faces were rosy and there was a faint smile on the corners of their mouths, as if they were having an extremely beautiful dream.

Qin Wan couldn't help but reach out and gently stroke the hair of one of the children, with a gentle smile full of maternal love on her face.

However, behind this smile lies fatigue and weakness that is difficult to conceal.

Due to the excessive use of her supernatural powers before, Qin Wan's face was as pale as paper at this moment, without a trace of blood. She looked shaky, as if a gust of wind could blow her down.

Lu Yu, who had been silently watching Qin Wan from the side, felt an indescribable pain in his heart when he saw her look so haggard.

He walked quickly to Qin Wan's side, held her drooping shoulders with his hands, and said softly:

"I think the troops will contact me this afternoon. I need to go out and see if there's any new information or mission arrangements.

You can rest here for the whole afternoon and get enough rest. At night, there will be a tough battle waiting for you to fight.

Qin Wan nodded slightly, a hint of understanding and determination flashing in her eyes. She responded in a weak but clear voice:

"Okay, I got it. You can go without worry." After saying that, she slowly turned over and got on the bed, moving so gently as if she was afraid of waking up the children beside her.

As soon as she lay down, it was as if all her strength was drained away. She closed her eyes and fell into a deep sleep.

Lu Yu looked at Qin Wan with heartache, carefully picked up the quilt on the bed, and gently covered her and the children with it, fearing that any noise would disturb their sweet dreams.

Then he tiptoed to the door and quietly called Aunt Yu aside.

Lu Yu lowered his voice and said to his aunt:

"Aunt Yu, Qin Wan and the children are all asleep now. Please keep an eye on them. If anything happens, please wake them up immediately! I have an urgent matter to deal with, so I might be away for a while. Please!"

Aunt Yu nodded quickly and said, "It's okay, don't worry, leave it to me. I will take good care of Xiao Qin and the children."

After getting Aunt Yu's assurance, Lu Yu finally felt relieved and turned around and hurriedly left the room.

After watching Lu Yu's departing figure disappear from her sight, Aunt Yu tiptoed into the room.

She saw the children lying in a mess on the bed, and under the bed were the clothes that the children had soiled while playing in the morning, so she quietly picked up the clothes and walked to the water pipe outside the house. She bent down, put the clothes in the sink, and carefully scrubbed the stains on them.

Although Aunt Yu is old, she is still very skillful at work. In a short while, the originally dirty clothes become clean in her hands.

After washing, Aunt Yu hung them one by one on the clothesline in the yard so that the sun could fully shine on them and dry them as quickly as possible.

After finishing everything, Aunt Yu breathed a sigh of relief, and then slowly returned to the room with slightly tired steps.

As soon as she entered the room, her eyes naturally fell on Qin Wan who was sleeping quietly and the lovely children, and her eyes revealed endless love and care.

Aunt Yu tiptoed to the bedside and began to work silently.

She first carefully tucked in the quilts for the children to ensure they would not catch a cold; then she gently tidied up Qin Wan's hair that was scattered on the pillow, her movements extremely gentle.

During this time, she would stop from time to time to observe Qin Wan and the children's sleeping posture. She saw that they were all sleeping very soundly, with steady and even breathing.

Seeing this scene, Aunt Yu thought to herself:

"Seeing how soundly they sleep, they must be exhausted."

So, the kind Aunt Yu decided not to disturb their sweet dreams, allowing them to fully enjoy the peace and comfort.

However, in fact, although Qin Wan looked like she was resting peacefully in the bedroom at this time, she had actually quietly entered a mysterious space.

In this special space, Qin Wan can fully relax and rest, so as to better recover his exhausted physical strength.

Just as Qin Wan was recuperating leisurely in the space, time passed quietly.

After an unknown amount of time, when she finally felt energetic enough to cope with the upcoming busyness, Lu Yu came back!

Qin Wan was busy in the space when she suddenly heard Lu Yu's familiar and deep voice. She was delighted and immediately flashed out of the space without hesitation.

At this moment, the sky was dyed orange and red by the colorful sunset, like a beautiful painting unfolding before our eyes. It was already late, and it was time to enjoy dinner.

Lu Yu gently woke the children one by one. They rubbed their sleepy eyes, drowsily got up, and followed him to the dining table to prepare for dinner. Perhaps it was because these little guys had played too much in the morning and had too much exercise.

Soon after dinner, the children fell asleep like little pigs again.

Seeing this, Qin Wan gently walked over to the children, extended her warm hands, and gently stroked their pulses. After a brief examination, she found that the children's foreheads were cool and there was no fever or other abnormal conditions, which made her feel relieved.

It seemed that they were simply sleepy and tired.

Lu Yu sat aside, smiling as he watched his wife taking care of the children. After Qin Wan finished, he slowly spoke and told her about the people and things he had encountered while out today.

"Today, as soon as I walked out of the guesthouse, I unexpectedly found some writing symbols unique to our special forces in a rather hidden corner at the door.

It turned out that these were excellent special forces sent from the island to meet with us!

The person who came was none other than an old friend of mine..."
