Chapter 256 Farewell to Family
Hearing that they didn't have to pay rent, the poisonous needle bees were overjoyed. The eldest flew out and agreed, "Sure! If you need honey in the future, just come to us!"
"Okay, thank you." The farce was resolved and Mu Qingxin breathed a sigh of relief.
After Xiaohuo returned the honey, Mu Qingxin held Xiaohuo and Xinxin down and apologized to the poisonous bees together, then left the hive and returned to the house.
Mu Qingxin drank the spiritual spring water and while recovering her strength, she explained to Xiaohuo and Yaya the pros and cons of what they had just done and reasoned with them.
Looking at the two little ones who only understood half of what was being said, Mu Qingxin sighed inwardly. As a parent, she had a heavy responsibility to shoulder...
Early the next morning, Mu Qingxin brought Xiaohuo and Yaya out of the space and went downstairs to make breakfast. While doing so, she turned on the light computer and listened to the news on it.
Today's interstellar news is the result of Master Arthur's research on the Flame Tree after so many days.
Master Arthur said solemnly to the video, "This Flame Tree will from now on be the guardian tree of the Capital Star. As the Flame Tree said, we have confirmed that the roots of this Flame Tree have filled the entire center of the Earth. As long as the Flame Tree exists, the Capital Star will exist. If the Flame Tree dies, the Capital Star... will cease to exist."
Therefore, citizens of the Capital Planet, I hope you will treat this Flame Tree with kindness and protection in the future. The leader has already added a lot of protection around the Flame Tree. Don't worry, this Flame Tree is very strong and has a long lifespan, possibly tens of thousands of years..."
Mu Qingxin's hands kept moving, and she felt deeply moved. "The Flame Tree has become a guardian tree, and it has a greater responsibility to protect the planet. The fate of this planet is tied to the Flame Tree. It was fine before people didn't know, but now that they know, they must be feeling a certain panic. But it's only a matter of time. Over time, people will forget the fear..."
"Yes, the inner emotions of human beings are too complicated and unpredictable. Sometimes they scare themselves!" Xiaohuo was flying around and heard Mu Qingxin's words, and expressed his views on humans.
Yaya kneaded the dough aside and said, "Mom is also a human being. She didn't scare herself!"
"..." Mu Qingxin glanced at the two little guys and shook her head. Yes, just like Xiaohuo said, no one can understand the human mind. Sometimes the most frightening thing in the world is not other things that make people afraid, but what humans have - the human heart.

Just after finishing breakfast in the morning, Mu Qingxin and Dongfang Ling's light brains rang at the same time. When they clicked on them, they saw that it was a message from Shui Huanlan. She said that she had arrived at the capital planet and asked where they were and whether they wanted to come out and play together for a day and then go back to the academy together in the afternoon.
Mu Qingxin and Dongfang Ling smiled at each other and said, "Let's go!" Then they quickly went back to their room to pack their things. After taking everything with them, they went downstairs to tell their family.
"Great-grandfather, grandpa, grandma, mom, Lanlan has come to the capital planet. Lingling and I are going to look for her. We won't be back today. We will go directly back to the academy in the afternoon. We have already packed our things." Mu Qingxin said to the elders who were still drinking tea in the living room.
"Leaving so early?" Borisa looked at her precious granddaughter reluctantly.
Although they were reluctant, they couldn't stop Mu Qingxin from going out to play with her friends. Furthermore, they knew that Xinxin and Lingling had been getting tired of staying at home lately. School had finally started, and their friends were coming over, so how could they stop them? They had no choice but to swallow their reluctance and tell Mu Qingxin to be careful when she went out, and to contact her family if anything happened...
Mu Qingxin agreed to everything and made promises one by one.
Dongfang Ling, who was standing by, looked at Xinxin who kept nodding and couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh, "Great-grandfather, grandpa, grandma, auntie, don't worry, Xinxin has me. I will protect her at school!"
When Borisa heard Dongfang Ling's words, she smiled and took Dongfang Ling's hand, patting it gently. "Grandma knows, don't worry, but you too, you should pay attention to safety at school or outside. Come to our house next time you have a holiday. That room is yours. You can come whenever you want, understand?"
Dongfang Ling nodded gratefully, "Yeah, I understand, grandma."
Ou Xuemei, who was standing by, also pulled Dongfang Ling aside and gave her some advice. After spending half a month together, their love for Dongfang Ling increased little by little, almost reaching Mu Qingxin's level.
Mu Qingxin watched Lingling nod in agreement as it was her turn, smiling with schadenfreude. Seeing Dongfang Ling's face becoming increasingly stiff, Mu Qingxin kindly stepped forward to rescue her, "Grandma, Mom, it's getting late. Our appointment with Lanlan is almost up. We should leave."
As soon as Mu Qingxin said this, Borisha and Ou Xuemei stopped and looked at the two children reluctantly. Mu Qingxin looked at her great-grandfather and grandfather who looked reluctant to leave, walked over to hug them, rubbed their heads affectionately, and said sweetly, "Great-grandfather, Grandpa, Grandma, Mom, I'll be staying in the academy. It's safe. Don't worry. I'll be back when the holidays are over. You should eat well, rest well, and take care of yourselves at home. I'll video chat with you when I have time..."
Listening to their baby's instructions, Mu Zhaohui and the others felt warm in their hearts and said yes repeatedly. Finally, Mu Qingxin and Dongfang Ling said goodbye to their families, got on the aircraft and left.
On the aircraft, looking at the villa area gradually disappearing in the distance, Dongfang Ling patted her chest with a sigh of relief. "What I can't stand the most is saying goodbye. Luckily, I didn't go home, otherwise I would be surrounded and told all kinds of things to do today, just like you..."
Mu Qingxin leaned against the window, looking at her home that no longer looked out of sight. She hid her reluctance to leave, turned around and smiled, "I don't like saying goodbye either. If possible, I hope to stay with my family forever, but sometimes separation is necessary. There will always be separations on the road to growth, but there will always be reluctance and worry..."
"Well, the scene just now made me miss my family. Really, it's been such a long time, and I haven't contacted them, and they don't know to contact me on their own initiative!" Dongfang Ling thought of her family and complained with a pout.
(Everyone in the Dongfang family said, "Little Ancestor, didn't you say that if we bothered you again, you wouldn't come home? Now you're complaining...")
"Not contacting you doesn't mean I don't miss you. Your family must miss you too!" Mu Qingxin hugged the aggrieved Dongfang Ling and comforted her.
"Of course, they must miss me, because you miss them too!" In an instant, Dongfang Ling regained her queen temperament and her cheerful smile.
"I'll see Lanlan soon. It feels like I haven't seen her for a long time. I miss her so much..."
