The three little ones rushed into her arms, crying, "Mommy, are you alright? I was so worried about you!"
Huaihuai pouted and cried, as if afraid that she would disappear at any moment.
Yi Tianran's heart softened completely. She picked him up and wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes. "My sweet baby, Mommy is right here in front of you, isn't she? Who could hurt me, hmm?"
Huaihuai nodded, choking back tears, her little hands wrapped around her neck, nestled in her arms, refusing to let go.
Yi Tianran chuckled and shook her; what a clingy little crybaby.
Unlike his two older brothers, he is not as strong and needs to be carefully protected.
Just as she was thinking this, she suddenly felt someone tug at the hem of her clothes.
She paused for a moment, then subconsciously lowered her eyes and saw Geng Geng tightly gripping the hem of his clothes with her small hands, her hands trembling slightly, looking worried and trying to appear composed.
Because of blood ties, she could see right through the little guy's emotions.
"Poor little thing." Yi Tianran's nose tingled, and she picked him up in her arms, her voice gentle as water: "Don't be afraid, if you want to be spoiled, just tell Mommy, I will always be with you."
He has always been independent and strong, almost like a smaller version of Fu Yunchen. Coupled with his powerful fighting skills, he never suffers a loss among his three brothers.
But doesn't he need to be cared for? He has always wanted to be like Huaihuai, leaning in his mother's arms and acting like a normal child.
Geng Geng pursed her lips, suppressing the stinging in her eyes, and buried her head in her arms, looking both obedient and pitiful.
"Mommy, Mommy, I'm here for you! Don't worry, no matter how big a crime you've committed, I'll wait for you to get out of prison." The little furball is not only a master at destroying warmth, but also a very filial son.
This instantly wiped away all of Yi Tianran's emotions. Her lips twitched, and she gritted her teeth, saying, "Who said I committed a crime? I am a law-abiding citizen, understand?"
"Do law-abiding citizens need me to redeem them?" Just then, Fu Yunchen strode over with his long legs, his face dark and inscrutable.
Yi Tianran could detect the anger in his tone.
"Ahem..." She quickly put down the two little ones, walked up to him, and said in a soft tone that she herself was unaware of: "Mr. Fu, when I encountered this problem, you were the first person I thought of. I didn't hide the danger from you at all, so why are you angry!"
Fu Yunchen's dark eyes swept over her entire body, his tone carrying a rare hint of anger, "If I hadn't let you go to Linghua, you wouldn't have encountered any danger."
Yi Tianran: "..." Who would have thought this!
She said with a rare hint of grievance, "I'm perfectly fine, and you know my capabilities."
“Understanding is one thing.” Fu Yunchen’s voice was low and husky as he pulled her hand to his chest, his gaze intense. “Feeling sorry for her is another.”
When he heard her casually describe the danger over the phone, his heart felt like it was being gripped tightly by a giant hand.
It was both painful and suffocating.
At that moment, he felt immense hatred for himself, wondering why he wasn't by her side and couldn't protect her.
He even had a dark thought: to build her a golden house, hide her inside, cherish her, and protect her from the slightest harm.
But he also knew that she was an eagle yearning for freedom, who would never be bound by a cage, but would soar freely in her own world.
Even if she encounters danger, she has the ability to face it.
This is the person he loves.
"!!!" With his hands clasped together, a tingling, numbing current seemed to flow through his palms and into his limbs and bones.
Yi Tianran trembled slightly, listening to the throbbing in her palms, as if she could sense Fu Yunchen's emotions at that moment.
Her cheeks flushed, and she quickly pulled her hand back. "Why are you suddenly being so cheesy, hahaha..."
When she met Fu Yunchen's earnest gaze, she couldn't bring herself to smile.
"Mommy, this is the time to comfort Daddy!" the little furball said as if she knew everything. "Even men lack a sense of security. If they suddenly hear that their beloved wife is in danger, they'll be scared out of their wits. You don't even understand this? You're such a clueless girl!"
"???" Yi Tianran was almost amused by his words: "You know a lot! Who taught you this, that you're always learning these glib tongues?"
The little furball quickly shifted the blame: "Ahem... This is the experience my uncle taught me. He also said that he's compiled his whole set of theories into a book, and before long, he'll become an internationally renowned dating guru!"
Unexpectedly, Fu Yunchen's face darkened as soon as he said this. "You mean, the contents of that book are all based on his own experience?"
“Yeah!” The little furball blinked, looking completely innocent, and said, “This is called the Complete Guide to Picking Up Girls.”
Fu Yunchen sneered.
Some people are alive, but their "death day" is not far away.
The next second, a delicate and fragrant scent entered my nostrils.
Yi Tianran threw herself into Fu Yunchen's arms, burying her head in his shoulder and gently patting his back with one hand.
Her muffled voice rang out: "Mr. Fu, I'm sorry to have worried you."
It was a rare moment of compromise for her. Although she tried to hide her feelings, the blush on her ears betrayed them.
In an instant, Fu Yunchen's mood improved considerably.
He wanted to reach out and touch that pink earlobe, but considering the inappropriate occasion and the presence of three other "third wheels," he hesitated.
We'll have to wait until next time.
"Find out who's trying to harm you?" He quickly calmed down, a cold and murderous glint flashing in his eyes.
Yi Tianran finally raised her head, a shrewd glint in her eyes: "I know what I'm doing, but... I'm not in a hurry to arrest them. I'll play the long game."
"You must prioritize your own safety." Fu Yunchen said with a serious expression.
Yi Tianran smiled nonchalantly: "Of course."
...
Back at school, Yi Tianran received a lot of warm greetings from her classmates, which inexplicably comforted her.
Until I saw a stack of mountains on the table.
The smile on her lips froze.
Under everyone's watchful, barely suppressed laughter, I subconsciously picked up a few books and looked at their covers.
It was actually—
Various series of Buddhist scriptures, including the Heart Sutra, the Diamond Sutra, the Ksitigarbha Sutra, and the Amitabha Sutra.
"..."
Her eyelids twitched violently, and without much thought, she guessed who was behind it.
In an instant, she shouldered the mountain of books and rushed out of the classroom, finding Xu Zhe in a familiar place.
Although he has returned to the classroom to attend classes during this period, he still likes to lie quietly by himself when Yi Tianran is not around.
"Qin Yao, you're back—" Xu Zhe jumped down from the tree in surprise.
The next second, a large stack of Buddhist scriptures was thrown at him.
