In the early morning, the morning light shines through the gaps in the curtains, and mottled light and shadows are scattered in every corner of the room.
Thor leaned against the window, looking out through the gap in the curtains with a cold gaze.
A man and a woman were walking on the grass, each holding a baby in their arms. The baby was nestled neatly in the cradle.
The woman turned her head from time to time to look around, walking very slowly, as if she wanted to remember it forever, imprinting the surrounding scenery deeply in her eyes.
They were Clive and Cynthia, who had quietly left the castle early in the morning, planning to leave the elves early.
Although Thor agreed to let them stay for two more days last night to rest, Cynthia and Clive, who had been helped by Lingling's magic, were actually no longer in serious condition.
After Sol left last night, the couple discussed that since Sol saw how angry they were, they would not bother him any longer.
At daybreak, the couple left behind more than half of their valuables, a note of thanks and notice of departure, and left with their two children.
The guard at the door was a little surprised to see them early in the morning and wanted to tell Soltong, but was stopped by the couple.
"Thank you, but don't bother me. There is a little benefactor resting in the Elf King's room, so there is no need to disturb him. We left a note." After saying this, he bowed deeply in the direction of the Elf King's room and left together.
Didn't Thor know they were leaving? Yes, Thor knew.
After they closed the door downstairs, he, who had hardly slept all night, put on his outer robe and stood by the window.
He watched silently as the couple left the castle until they were out of sight and out of the elven territory.
After leaving completely, Thor's slender fingers gently took out Cynthia's life card and his own life card.
He calmly activated it, erased Cynthia's information from the crystal horoscope, and then shattered her wooden horoscope.
From then on, there was no longer an elf named Cynthia among the elves.
......
"Hmm~"
Early in the morning, Sol, who was pretending to be deep by the window, heard Lingling's baby voice and woke up as if from a dream.
He quickly went to Lingling's crib, stroked her fluffy little head, and spoke softly, "Baby Lingling, are you awake so early? Sleep a little longer. You didn't get enough rest last night."
Lingling on the bed gave him a soft smile, rubbed her eyes with her little hands, and said drowsily: "Grandma Irene said to go to bed early and get up early."
After a pause, he seemed to remember something and continued softly, "I want to eat breakfast~"
Thor laughed, and the inexplicable depression in his heart early in the morning instantly dissipated. He nodded Lingling's little nose and said jokingly, "Uncle, I think the second half of your sentence is the key point."
"If Lingling is really not sleepy anymore, just get up slowly and put on your clothes. Uncle will go downstairs to help you with breakfast." He stood up and prepared to go downstairs.
I had only taken two steps when I heard Lingling's panicked little voice.
"Oh no! It's dark! Lingling can't see!"
Thor turned his head and saw that the little guy was covered tightly with clothes. It seemed that he had mistaken the small cuff for a collar and was trapped.
She pulled at it with her little hands, and fell headfirst onto the bed, with her feet entangled in the quilt.
A total mess.
Thor stood at the door, looking at the little baby struggling with clothes and quilt, and finally couldn't help it.
"Hahaha, hahaha, Lingling, you, you, hahaha"
When Lingling heard that Uncle Sol not only did not save her but was also laughing at her, she suddenly lost power and stopped moving while struggling.
Humph! Bad uncle, why didn't you save Lingling?
Seeing Lingling lying motionless like a salted fish, Thor walked up to her with amusement, freed her from her clothes and quilt, and tidied her messy, soft hair.
With a smile on his face, he begged for mercy: "Good Lingling, dear Lingling, uncle is not laughing at you. Uncle just sees how cute you are, and the more he thinks about it, the happier he gets, so he laughed out loud."
Lingling raised her little head and glanced at Thor suspiciously.
"Really? You really didn't make fun of Lingling?"
"Really? How could Uncle do that?" Thor forced himself to keep a calm expression. "Uncle is still reflecting on it. How could he leave you alone to get dressed? Right? Uncle should help Lingling get dressed and go downstairs together."
As he said this, he quickly diverted the child's attention and helped her put on her little clothes quickly.
Lingling's little head didn't react until she was dressed and had her hair tied up.
Hmm~something seems wrong?
Bai Jiu: ...My smart baby~ So cute but has no brain.
......
In the restaurant downstairs, Josiah was sitting at the table waiting, looking at the door from time to time.
Why hasn't he arrived yet? Normally at this time, the little one would have rushed into the restaurant full of energy to enjoy the food.
The female elf who was busy in the kitchen came out and saw Josiah looking around. After thinking for a moment, she said, "Josiah, the Elf King and Lingling were busy all night last night. They might still be sleeping."
"Busy? Busy about what?" Josiah was puzzled.
"Don't you know? Cynthia gave birth last night and safely delivered two babies, all thanks to Lingling!" She was also helping to boil water in the kitchen last night, so she knew the whole thing.
Josiah jumped to his feet.
"Really? Then I'm going to go check on those two lucky babies."
The female elf looked troubled.
"What's wrong? Why do you have that expression?" Josiah asked anxiously, thinking something had happened to the two babies.
"Because they're gone."
Thor's familiar clear voice came from the door.
Josiah looked over in disbelief and saw Thor standing at the restaurant door holding Lingling, who also looked shocked.
"Is the baby gone?" Lingling excitedly tugged at Thor's long silver-white hair that hung in front of her.
Sol looked at Lingling gently and said, "Yes, uncle and aunt are taking the baby home."
Lingling let go of the hand holding her long hair with a bit of loss.
"Lingling also asked if the baby had grown up to be pretty."
After she was shocked by her ugliness last night, Bai Jiu explained to her that babies are not good-looking when they are just born, and it takes some time for them to grow up to be good-looking.
She said she would go and have a look today, but now it seems there is no chance.
"It's okay. Lingling will go to see them when she has the chance." Lingling said while clenching her fists in Thor's arms.
Now, there is only one important thing.
Lingling stared at the fragrant food on the table.
It’s delicious, Lingling is here!
Josiah was still a little slow to react, but looking at Thor's half-smile, he didn't ask any more questions.
Just go, otherwise dad will have a stern face all day long, which is not like himself anymore.
Thinking of this, he ignored Thor's stabbing look and picked up Lingling, holding her high.
"Lingling baby, come here! Brother will take you to eat something delicious."
"Yeah! It's delicious!"
