"Bang--"
The footsteps in the living room quickened their pace and approached: "Xiao Yin, are you alright?"
Jiang Shuyin was woken up by the noise. Still groggy, she blurted out comforting words: "It's okay."
I rubbed my eyes, propped myself up, and looked into the room. Good heavens...
Did someone rob the house last night?
The books on her desk were scattered all over the floor, and her computer was overturned.
The wardrobe doors were all rotten; apart from the bed, the rest of the room was a complete mess.
"Can anyone tell me what's going on?"
Qingwu and Feitao silently lowered themselves and disappeared from their mother's sight.
"Heave-ho, heave-ho..."
Jiang Shu followed the sound and found the source of the sound under the bed—Hei Mei. The little guy was dragging an egg three times her size out of the bed.
"Qingwu, Feitao, go help."
With the help of her two older siblings who acted like cheat codes, Heimei quickly dragged out this big troublemaker and tattled to her mother: "You naughty boy, you're causing trouble!"
Jiang Shu was startled: "You can talk?"
Qingwu retorted defiantly, "I can do it too!"
Fei Tao immediately followed up with, "Yes, all of them."
Jiang Shuyin paused for a few seconds, then sat cross-legged amidst the ruins: "Then tell me, one by one, what's the story behind this egg?"
Seeing that the three little ones were about to speak, she called on Qingwu to answer first: "Let's go by birth order, the eldest can start."
Qingwu floated to the side of Bingdan and puffed out his non-existent chest: "The fourth brother suddenly appeared, started a fight, couldn't be stopped, and caused trouble."
"Hmm...good, next." Jiang Shuyin thought, stroking her chin.
Qingwu stepped down from the front lines. He didn't expose his father. Last night, when his father was there, the fourth son hadn't caused such a commotion. It was only after his father left that the fourth son made such a mess of the room. Sigh~
When it was Heimei's turn, she walked up to Bingdan and stammered, "It's just like what my brother said. Oh right, Heimei also treated him, so he wasn't injured."
Jiang Shuyin: "...Very good, great, next one."
He was injured and then healed; he was tired and then his energy was restored. No wonder he could fight all night long.
Fei Tao leaned against Bing Dan calmly: "Bing Dan appeared suddenly. There are two fourth brothers inside, one powerful and one not so powerful. It's all thanks to you, sister, that we survived."
Black Plum: !!!
Jiang Shuyin originally wanted to see how well the children had mastered the language, but she didn't expect that the children's personalities would also be reflected in this.
The eldest, Qingwu, seems like a rather innocent child. Heimei is a bit silly, but kind.
The third child is already able to grasp the key points of things and the crucial information that others cannot discover. He is the youngest and also the smartest and most resourceful.
"Click"
Jiang Shuyin snapped back to her senses, and all four pairs of eyes turned to the ice egg.
It cracked open; she was all too familiar with this process.
It's finally coming out.
The cracks spread outwards, and suddenly a layer of ice covered the surface, freezing the cracks and causing them to widen.
Jiang Shuyin: ?
Qingwu, Spade: ?
Himoko: "Aren't you coming out?"
The surface ice cracked and was covered by another layer of ice. The egg was still for a while, then it bounced wildly and hit the bed leg, making the bed limp.
Jiang Shuyin's face turned cold: "If you keep hitting her, she won't be cute anymore."
The ice egg paused for a moment, then slowly came to a stop. The ice layer cracked open from both sides, and a boy emerged from the left side. He was the same size as Black Plum and looked... exactly like a miniature version of Avery.
A corner of blue mist slowly drifted out from the right, half-concealing its view of the outside world.
Jiang Shuyin waved to them: "Come here."
Heimei finally met a younger brother just like herself, and immediately felt the responsibility of being an older sister. She pulled him in front of their mother and instructed him, "Listen to your mother and don't be a weird child."
Jiang Shuyin glanced helplessly at Heimei: "She's a good girl."
Lan Wu looked at her older brothers and sisters who were just like her, and then started hailing down in a fit of grievance. Jiang Shuyin didn't dodge in time and was frozen to the ground, chilled to the bone.
The Black Mist Clan are inherently selfish and indifferent. Qingwu, Heimei, and Feitao also carry this gene in their bones. However, due to the integration of Jiang Shuyin's bloodline, they have a bond with each other, which is why they appear relatively united.
Jiang Shu pulled Lan Wu over. Due to her feelings for Lan Wu as a fledgling bird and the bond of blood, Lan Wu did not dodge.
With one little one in each hand, the first and most important step was naming them. Jiang Shuyin thought for a moment and gave the first little boy, Thumb Boy, the name: "ICE (ice). You can't fight casually anymore. If your hands are itching, I'll take you out to fight."
The blue mist's name was: "Blue Cold, you just froze me. You can't just let it hail away like that."
"Have you memorized everything?"
ICE and Lan Han exchanged a glance, both seeing the suppressed hostility in the other.
A temporary ceasefire has been declared.
Suddenly having two children, and knowing at a glance that their fathers were not the same person, left her somewhat bewildered. She would probably have to wait for the system to provide an explanation.
Her daughter was awake but hadn't come out yet, so Zheng Lanxiang came over with a spatula and knocked on the door: "Dinner's ready. What was that noise just now? Are you alright?"
Jiang Shuyin glanced around the room and called out, "It's nothing, just a broken bed leg. I'll get it fixed and then we'll go out."
"Don't bother cleaning up yet, the food is ready." Zheng Lanxiang stood outside the door for a while, and when she saw that she wasn't invited in, she sighed and went back to the kitchen to serve the dishes.
Jiang Shuyin knew that if she didn't go out soon, she would be subjected to a series of deadly urgings.
He clapped his hands, stood up, and said to the two younger ones, "You've made this room like this. Now you'd better clean it up properly. Qingwu, Heimei, and Feitao, supervise me. I'm going out for lunch. When I come back, I want to see it all changed."
