"mother!"

"mother!"

As two still somewhat childish voices rang out, Jiang Dai saw her two sons, who had gone out to play, running over.

Thankfully, the eldest and third children went out to play, otherwise there would be too many little burdens around me.

I can't protect this family by myself.

Jiang Dai sighed silently in her heart.

Curly standing to the side: ?

A minor inconvenience?

Eldest brother and third brother?

It's okay! Once Mom finds out, she won't think that way anymore.

Seeing the two children running over anxiously, Jiang Dai began to comfort them.

"It's alright, Mom is alright, don't worry."

But who are Bai Yunqi and Bai Yun'an?

The two of them almost simultaneously glanced at their mother's still trembling hand.

Bai Yunqi lowered his eyes slightly, then raised his head with a bright smile: "Mother! I will protect you from now on!"

Bai Yun'an sighed silently, then raised her innocent face and said coldly, "Mother, my eldest brother stepped in dog poop again."

The warm atmosphere of maternal love and filial piety that had just been there shattered instantly.

Bai Yunqi: ...

Jiang Dai: ...

"By the way, where's Dad?"

Ignoring the murderous glare his elder brother was giving him, Bai Yun'an asked the question.

Speaking of this...

Jiang Dai gave a slightly awkward smile.

"She's fainted and is lying in the house."

Bai Yun'an: ...

Forget it, I shouldn't have had too high expectations for my dad before the apocalypse, when he was still so naive and innocent.

As long as he's not dead.

It's this injury, Mother...

If you don't disinfect properly, you might get a fever.

"Mother, Father is awake...."

As soon as Juanjuan ran out of the house, she saw her two older brothers standing next to her mother.

"Big brother, third brother."

The little guy greeted his two older brothers, then looked at his mother and whispered, "Daddy is still Daddy, he hasn't changed."

What Juanjuan fears most when her father collapses is that the father who used to beat people and drink has come back.

Jiang Dai raised her hand and pinched the little guy's cheek: "Don't worry, your father has reformed. If he's disobedient and dares to bully Juanjuan again, Mommy will beat him up!"

[Just now, Juanjuan asked if Dad would hit people again like before when he woke up, and I was startled. Luckily, she's alright.]

[I knew it! Bai Tian is a transmigrator, after all; he couldn't possibly die so easily!]

Juanjuan stood beside her mother and couldn't help but secretly glance at her older brother.

[They're secretly looking at me; they must think I'm handsome!]

Bai Yunqi had just finished complaining in his mind.

Then he saw his younger sister, whom he had anonymously rescued earlier, looking up at him with her soft, sweet face, and asking, "Big brother, did you step in dog poop?"

Bai Yunqi: ...

[Didn't I wipe it clean?! Where did this little guy know that?!]

It was as if it had heard the doubts in his heart.

The little guy pointed to the hem of his clothes and calmly said, "It got rubbed against me."

Yes, the dog poop on the side of the older brother's shoe got on the hem of her skirt.

Bai Yunqi: ...

This is so damn embarrassing!

In the awkward atmosphere, Bai Tian came out of the house.

"Dai Dai! Are you alright..."

Bai Tian looked at Jiang Dai, whose arm was bandaged and whose body was stained with dark red blood, and said with a hint of concern, "Does it hurt a lot?"

Jiang Dai smiled and nodded, saying, "It's alright. After all, I'm not young, and I can't fall asleep as soon as my head hits the pillow like you do."

Bai Tian:......

It's annoying to joke around at a time like this!

So annoying!

"It's alright, don't worry."

Jiang Dai reached out and tapped Juanjuan's nose: "Juanjuan was also superb today! Praise her."

Juanjuan smiled a little shyly, but then secretly glanced at her older brother.

This time, we really owe it all to my older brother.

Bai Yun'an's gaze fell on Juanjuan; he couldn't quite understand it.

Why does the younger sister keep glancing at her older brother, and why is there a hint of...admiration in her eyes?

Juanjuan, who suddenly heard her third brother's inner thoughts: ! !

The little guy quickly looked away.

Bai Yun'an raised an eyebrow. Coincidence?

[Was the shift in attention really that convenient? And there was a hint of guilt in his expression, like he'd been caught red-handed.]

Juanjuan's heart skipped a beat, and a cold sweat broke out on her back.

My little brain was practically spinning out of control at that moment, but there was no way around it; a new brain just works better.

Juanjuan turned her back to her third brother and started snuggling up to her mother.

It's okay, it's okay.

As long as she doesn't look at her third brother, and her third brother doesn't look at her, that's fine.

Third brother is really terrifying, too smart, how could he possibly guess what she was thinking?

Juanjuan felt incredibly weak and terrified.

Someone like my third brother, a few small actions from her are enough to arouse his suspicion.

Who dares to speak out of turn and reveal Third Brother's secret?

Juanjuan's clever little brain already knew that as long as she dared to say even a little bit, she would succeed.

With her third brother's intelligence, he could guess with his little finger that she could hear sounds that ordinary people couldn't hear.

But Juanjuan thought about how her third brother often said he wanted to gain her favor, so would that mean he would treat her a little differently...?

Hurried footsteps came from outside the door.

Juanjuan looked in the direction of the sound and saw a purple-clad figure of a young man rush into the house.

Li Pingqing suddenly entered, his voice low and slightly anxious as he asked, "Madam Jiang, Brother Bai, are you sure the person who attacked you was Kang An?"

Jiang Dai sensed something was amiss. Coming in such a hurry and asking this question right away, there must be something fishy going on.

"I'm not entirely sure, but he's the only one who's caused us trouble recently. Others... can't get rid of someone like that either."

Jiang Dai's answers still left room for maneuver.

Li Pingqing's expression changed slightly as he looked at them and said, word by word, "He's dead."
