"Not taking the imperial examinations, just studying all the time?"
Bai Yunqi asked curiously.
Bai Tian: "The main reason is that neither my parents are academically inclined. Studying is not the only way out, but it is essential to be literate."
Jiang Dai chimed in, "Exactly! If you want to take the imperial examinations, then take them. If you want to be a general, then become one. If you want to do nothing and just lie around at home, then you need to have the means to do so, or at least not complain about your poor living conditions while you're doing it!"
Anyway, at that time she wanted to lie down, but she also wanted to enjoy herself. She was greedy!
So filming one movie, saving some money, and then taking a short break is not bad!
"My parents are really strange..."
Bai Yunqi couldn't help but complain. You know, whether it's the mortal world of the cultivation world or the world now, who doesn't want their child to study hard and make a name for themselves?
Jiang Dai raised an eyebrow: "What's so strange about it?"
Bai Yunqi smiled and said, "It's...it's really good!"
Jiang Dai and Bai Tian: [Wait, why is this cheesy joke still around?!]
Curly tilts head: A tired trope? I've learned another new word.
Bai Yunxing looked at his young parents and continued eating with his head down.
Such parents are rare; they are truly wonderful parents.
Bai Yun'an lowered his head to eat, but what flashed through his mind were Jiang Dai and Bai Tian's behavior over the past few days.
Then, she silently lowered her head and smiled.
[These parents are really... truly from before the apocalypse, how wonderful!]
[If possible, who wouldn't want to be born before the apocalypse? Who would want to be born after the apocalypse? It's disgusting.]
Jiang Dai looked at the four children in front of her, coughed lightly, and tried to show her authority: "Eat your food. Your health and safety are more important than anything else!"
A seemingly ordinary sentence froze Bai Yun'an in place, gently stirring up a corner of a deeply buried memory in his mind.
That was when he was about five years old, and he was only a little taller than Juanjuan.
Because he had been in the base since birth, he had never seen the bloodshed outside. At most, he had seen injured superhumans and dead corpses.
At that time, his biggest dream at the age of five was to become the strongest superhuman in the base, just like his mother, to be admired by others, and to become a great hero that people could be proud of.
But his mother never let him go out.
His mother protected him very well. Her favorite saying was: "In Yun'an, we need to eat more; being strong, healthy, and safe is more important than anything else!"
But one day, before they had even finished their meal, a fake zombie king suddenly appeared in the base.
A low-level man with no special abilities, responsible for transporting goods, encountered a beautiful woman. Taking advantage of his permission and connections with mid-level managers in the base, he secretly brought her in, unaware that she was a fake zombie king.
That night, the zombies nearly slaughtered everyone in the base in order to advance their ranks.
Despite being the base's top superpowered mother, she fought the fake zombie king for half a day but still didn't receive any rescue, so she finally chose to self-destruct.
That was the first time Yun'an, who had been protected in the base since birth and had never seen such a large-scale bloodshed, had witnessed a scene that resembled hell.
Blood splattered, accompanied by sticky flesh, the world was like a blood-red sunset, and every now and then an eyeball would pop out like a bullet. The whole world was twisted and bizarre, filled with wails.
As a child, he stretched out his right hand, trying to grab something, but he grabbed nothing.
So this is what the world outside the base he had always longed for was like.
"Cough cough..."
Bai Yun'an coughed twice, then couldn't control himself and gagged.
Everyone at the table looked at him in surprise.
"What's wrong?" Jiang Dai asked anxiously.
Bai Yun'an picked up the bowl with her left hand, took a sip of the porridge, and gave a somewhat fragile smile: "I choked, I choked."
Seeing that the child seemed alright and had stopped coughing after taking a sip of porridge, Jiang Dai didn't think much of it.
"Eat slowly, focus on your meal."
Bai Yun'an smiled and nodded, but quietly put his left hand under the table.
He pressed his left hand firmly against his right, stopping the uncontrollable trembling of his right hand.
Then, in a short period of time, he forcefully controlled his will and calmed his trembling right hand.
After dinner, Bai Tian and Jiang Dai went to wash the pots and pans.
What else?
If the kids cook, do they really have to make them wash the pots and pans?
Although they say they want to rely on their parents and children and live a life of ease, as the new generation of young people, they are not a lost generation.
Although they can't be like the protagonists in novels with all sorts of cheat codes, instantly making their families rich and reaching the pinnacle of life!
But they both tried their best!
Bai Tian has already signed a major project with Shiwei Restaurant. As long as this project succeeds, he is confident that he can try to make the profits grow exponentially!
Bai Yunxing quietly followed them, squatted down beside his parents who were washing dishes, and said, "Father, Mother, it seems someone came to our house last night."
He didn't mention it at the dinner table because he was afraid of causing panic among his brothers and sisters.
After all, those children were still young, unlike him, who had already had his soul replaced.
That's why I've held back until now, and only now am I going to tell my parents in private.
