Chapter 174 Qingyue personally welcomes Su Yuyao
Inside the carriage, Su Yuyao had already dried Xuanmiao's body, dressed her, tied her hair into two pigtails with red string, and adorned the pigtails with cow bone beads.
"My dear Miao'er, don't blame your mother for being clumsy. Once I learn how to comb hair, I'll give you beautiful hair!"
"Ah...oh!" Xuanfeng seemed to understand, and responded with a humming sound as he opened his small mouth.
Su Yuyao stroked Xuanmiao's chubby face, where the finger marks were no longer visible. "Miao'er, did Daddy really pinch you hard just now?"
The mysterious Kaba Kaba eyes grinned and smiled.
"You did this on purpose?" Su Yuyao was somewhat surprised. How could she tell the difference in the eyebrows and eyes of such a small baby?!
"Oh!" Xuanmiao responded again, rubbed her eyes, and began to hum, "Hmm..."
Seeing this, Su Yuyao quickly hugged Xuanmiao to her chest. As soon as she unbuttoned her clothes, Xuanmiao eagerly took a bite. After taking a couple of sucks, its eyes began to glaze over.
While coaxing Xuanmiao to sleep, Su Yuyao looked out the car window. The wolf pack that had been eyeing Xuanfeng were now wagging their tails and watching the show. Even Ruixue was watching intently with a wide grin!
Su Yuyao followed the wolf pack's gaze and saw Lang Zhi by the stream, holding Xuan Feng's wrist and saying something.
They walked a few steps together when Xuanfeng suddenly shouted, his face flushed red, "Get lost!"
Xuanfeng forcefully shook off Kailang Zhi's hand and angrily walked towards the carriage.
Langzhi stood behind Xuanfeng, hands on her hips, and said smugly, "Xuanfeng! I've come up with a solution for you! It's just that you disagree! Don't go and ruin my daughter's life!"
With his head throbbing as if it were about to explode, Xuanfeng bypassed the bewildered wolf pack, jumped onto the carriage, and crawled into the compartment. Seeing Su Yuyao nursing her baby, he quickly turned his back and gently placed Su Yuyao's shoes aside.
"You got into a fight with Dad?" Su Yuyao asked softly.
"Um."
"Just because you pinched Miao'er?"
"Hmm...not entirely..."
"And what else?"
“Girl… um… I…” Xuan Feng suddenly realized that it was particularly difficult to ask Su Yuyao for this request.
"What happened?" Su Yuyao was suddenly worried when she saw Xuanfeng, who was usually decisive and efficient, looking so troubled.
“It’s just…” Xuanfeng glanced back at Su Yuyao, her white chest starting to irritate him again, “You…you leave the child with them, I have something to do…”
"What's going on?" Su Yuyao handed the sleeping Xuanmiao out the window. Ruixue, who was waiting outside the window, quickly took Xuanmiao into her arms, but before she could even hold her warmly, Langzhi snatched her away again.
Langzhi carefully stuffed Xuanmiao into the net pocket in front of her chest, rolled her eyes and glanced at the carriage. "You brat! My good daughter! You've ruined her again!"
Su Yuyao looked in surprise at what Xuanfeng had taken out; it was tightly wrapped in rings of shimmering spider silk.
"Does it hurt?" Su Yuyao leaned between Xuanfeng's legs, tilted her face up, and asked softly, "You haven't looked well these past few days, is it because of this?"
“Hey… girl,” Xuanfeng struggled to shift his gaze from Su Yuyao’s ample bosom to the bicycle shed, swallowed hard, and said, “Don’t keep staring like that, I… can’t take it!”
"You've been avoiding me these past few days, is it because of this?" Su Yuyao's warm breath gradually pushed Xuanfeng's defenses down.
Xuanfeng struggled to suppress his impulse, his face flushed as he asked, "Can...you help me?"
Su Yuyao remembered Professor Yu Qing's skills...
She gently supported it with her hand, and slightly opened her mouth...
Xuan Feng finally couldn't hold back any longer. Just as he lunged forward, Su Yuyao gently used the tip of her tongue to curl up the spider silk threads, teasing them one by one, melting them layer by layer...
As expected, Su Yuyao's coquettish voice rang out shortly afterward.
Seeing this, the wolves all retreated to a distance in perfect unison and waited quietly.
Langzhi watched the slowly swaying carriage with resentment, her anger growing stronger. She really shouldn't have told him! He got off easy! If it weren't for her daughter, would she have let him succeed?
Huh? This seems a bit contradictory. Never mind, this brat is getting off easy anyway! Langzhi rolled his eight red eyes one by one.
After a while, Xuanfeng jumped off the carriage, looking refreshed. He turned around and helped the rosy-cheeked Su Yuyao, saying softly, "Girl, sit down!"
He carefully lifted Su Yuyao's foot, wiping it with a handkerchief as he said, "The Immortal Master just sent word that there's nothing wrong with Yuantun Palace. Let's pack up and head back!"
"Nothing unusual?" Su Yuyao asked in surprise. "If nothing unusual is happening, why didn't Uncle come back to tell us?"
Xuanfeng said with a wry smile, "With Aunt's temper, how could she not be acting strangely? The Immortal Master has most likely been detained by Aunt!"
Su Yuyao sighed, pouted, and said, "What am I going to do? Mother must be very angry with me!"
Xuanfeng helped Su Yuyao put on her shoes, lifted her down from the carriage, pinched her cheek, and said with a doting smile, "Now you know fear? What made you think of leaving in the first place?"
Su Yuyao frowned, pouted, and punched Xuan Feng in the chest with her little fist. "It's all your fault! It's your fault! If it weren't for you... would I be able to leave?!"
"It's my fault! It's my fault!" Xuan Feng hugged Su Yuyao and gently comforted her, "Don't be afraid, I'm here!"
"What use are you?" Su Yuyao finally reached out and hugged Xuanfeng's waist, enjoying the long-awaited embrace. "It's because of you that I always get punished!"
Xuanfeng's heart clenched. "Girl, I promise I will never let you suffer any more injustice!"
"How can you guarantee it?" Su Yuyao looked up at her rosy cheeks, frowning as she said, "Mother is so fierce, she even beats Father without hesitation, not to mention I didn't say goodbye to her when I left, she must be heartbroken, and I even had a child behind her back... If Miao'er does these things to me, I definitely..."
"What do you mean?!" A cold voice suddenly appeared.
Su Yuyao was startled and looked up abruptly. She saw a crane circling in the air, and on the crane was Qingyue with a gloomy face!
Su Yuyao's legs went weak and she began to tremble uncontrollably. She stammered to Xuanfeng, "It's Mother..."
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid!" Xuanfeng hugged Su Yuyao, who was slumped in his arms, tightly and comforted her softly.
The crane slowly landed in front of the carriage, and the cold aura made Su Yuyao shiver even more violently.
Xuanfeng protected Su Yuyao and bowed slightly to Qingyue, saying, "Nephew greets Aunt!"
Qingyue took a step and leaped down, landing in front of Xuanfeng and Su Yuyao.
She looked at Su Yuyao, who was shivering in Xuanfeng's arms, and her heart ached terribly. She couldn't imagine how her daughter had survived those dark days that she had heard about!
But the more she felt sorry for Su Yuyao, the angrier she became. With tears in her eyes, she scolded Su Yuyao, "Su Yuyao! Look at the state of you!"
Looking at Qingyue, Su Yuyao finally couldn't hold back her tears and burst into sobs, "Ah—! Ah—!"
She cried, cried unrestrainedly, like a runaway child who finally saw her mother. Although she might be greeted with a scolding or even a ruler, her anxious heart finally settled down!
"Ah—! Mother—!" Su Yuyao cried out with her mouth wide open, as if she were not the leader of the wolf clan, not the mysterious mother, but just a disobedient child.
Qingyue's tears had already welled up in her eyes. After more than a year, her child had finally returned!
Su Yuyao cried as she stretched out her arm to Qingyue, calling out, "Mother!"
Qingyue's heart softened. She went over to Su Yuyao, pulled her into her arms, patted Su Yuyao's back, and gently scolded, "Why did you only come back now?! How could you do such a dangerous thing?! Why did you leave?!"
"I was wrong... I'll never do it again!" Su Yuyao nestled into Qingyue's arms, the familiar scent calming her heart.
"You dare to do it again?!" Qingyue wiped away her tears, cupped Su Yuyao's face in her hands, looked at her carefully, and said angrily, "If you dare to leave like that again, I'll beat you up!"
Su Yuyao blinked and pouted, saying, "Mom! I'll never do it again, please don't hit me this time!"
Qingyue chuckled and tapped Su Yuyao's nose, saying, "You haven't changed at all!"
"Tuan Yue! Tuan Yue!" Lang Zhi Gua Xuanmiao excitedly rushed over, "You're here!"
Qingyue looked up at Langzhi, scrutinizing her from head to toe and then from bottom to top. Her heart sank. "Langzhi, Yuqing has taken very good care of you!"
"Ah...uh..." Langzhi suddenly stammered, "Look at you, what are you saying as soon as we meet!"
Su Yuyao then realized that her father's transformation was due to Aunt Yuqing's care!
What about Xuanfeng? She turned to Xuanfeng again, trying hard to recall the details of their first meeting...
Xuanfeng could tell from Su Yuyao's eyes that she was overthinking things again. Although he hadn't done what Langzhi had done, he felt inexplicably guilty, afraid that Su Yuyao would find some clues.
"Waaah—! Waaah—!" Xuanmiao burst into tears, perfectly timed.
"Huh? A baby?!" Qingyue stared blankly at Langzhi, who then pulled a chubby, white infant from a net bag on her chest and asked in surprise, "This is... Yao'er's baby?"
Langzhi brought Xuanmiao to Qingyue and said with a smile, "That's Xuanmiao! She can eat a lot and she's naughty! Just like our daughter!"
"Besides being a big eater and naughty, she's just as cute as me! It's just that she doesn't look like me!" Su Yuyao hugged Xuanmiao, who immediately stopped crying, leaned against Su Yuyao's chest, and giggled at Qingyue.
Qingyue looked at Xuanmiao, then at Su Yuyao who was holding Xuanmiao. If I had given birth to Yao'er, she would probably be just as adorable!
She reached out and stroked Xuanmiao's face, tears of sadness and guilt streaming down her face...
Xuanmiao didn't understand Qingyue's grief. She looked helplessly at the crying Qingyue, awkwardly stopped smiling, bit her finger, and blinked her big eyes at Su Yuyao in confusion, as if asking, "Why are you still crying? Why didn't it work this time?"
Su Yuyao didn't understand either. Every time there was a crisis, as long as Xuanmiao appeared, the danger would be averted. Why did it make her mother cry this time?
Langzhi felt heartbroken looking at Qingyue, who was crying bitterly.
He stepped forward and embraced Qingyue, gently comforting her, "Tuanyue, our daughter is back, isn't she? Besides, we still have to help our daughter raise the baby, just like we would raise our own! Look, the baby even makes you laugh!"
Langzhi pointed at Xuanmiao, who was sucking his thumb in confusion, and said, "Little one, give your grandma a smile!"
Xuanmiao quickly grinned, drooling, showing her tiny, newly emerging teeth, and forced out a big smile.
Qingyue looked at Xuanmiao, who was trying so hard to make her happy, and couldn't help but laugh. She wiped away her tears, reached out and took Xuanmiao into her arms, gently tapping Xuanmiao's chubby cheeks, and said softly, "You're Miao'er? Are you teasing your grandma?"
“Oh…” Xuanmiao listened very attentively, responding to every sound.
Seeing that Qingyue's complexion had improved, everyone present breathed a sigh of relief.
Su Yuyao turned around and looked at the wolf pack hiding to the side. She waved to them, signaling them to transform into human form. "Brothers, come here quickly! Pay homage to Lady Qingyue!"
The wolves then transformed back into human form one by one. Led by Ruixue, with Shadow and Sandstorm protecting them on either side, and the other young men following closely behind, they lined up neatly and respectfully knelt before Qingyue, saying, "Greetings, Your Highness Qingyue!"
Qingyue held Xuanmiao in her arms, looking at the group of strong young men kneeling in front of her, and then at Su Yuyao, who was like a newly blooming flower bud. She couldn't help but feel a little worried.
"Get up." Qingyue's voice was slightly cold. "You've had a long journey."
Ruixue knew that Qingyue did not like her, so she did not take Qingyue's cold attitude to heart. She led her wolf brothers to thank Qingyue and stood up behind Su Yuyao.
Qingyue tossed the chubby Xuanmiao in her arms, glanced at the handsome young wolves, then looked at Xuanfeng, who was teasing Xuanmiao with his full-bearded face, and gasped.
Although Xuanfeng was mature, steady, and full of heroic spirit, compared to the young man behind Su Yuyao, he not only looked old but also looked haggard.
"Xuanfeng, what's wrong with you? As a Heavenly Lord, how can you be so untidy and unkempt? What kind of behavior is this!" Qingyue scolded in a low voice.
Xuanfeng quickly lowered his hands and head, saying, "Aunt, I've always been like this, and no one helps me tidy up these possessions, so naturally I'm a bit sloppy!"
Qingyue slightly raised her eyelids and glanced at Langzhi, who was hiding to the side. "Yes, you can tell at a glance that you have no one to take care of you. It's quite pitiful! Unlike some people, who know to find someone who cares for them and live a comfortable life!"
"Hehe, Tuan Yue, look at what you're saying! I just didn't want to embarrass you and your daughter! I've cleaned it up, so it'll look good when you take it out, right?" Lang Zhi said with a grin.
Xuanfeng rolled his eyes speechlessly. This Langzhi! How can he be so talkative!
Qingyue subtly blinked at Langzhi, then put on a loving smile and kissed Xuanmiao in her arms, "Miao'er is the best, unlike them! They're all such a worry!"
Su Yuyao glanced nervously at Qingyue's face and said cautiously, "Mother... let's go back. It's getting late, and I'm hungry!"
Qingyue looked at Xuanmiao in her arms and said with a smile, "Alright, it's time to go back! There are still a lot of people waiting in Yuantun Palace!"
Upon hearing this, everyone's hearts skipped a beat!
Su Yuyao smiled awkwardly and said, "In that case... let Xuanfeng go back with you on the crane first! There are many of us, so we can travel slowly!"
Upon hearing this, Xuanfeng raised an eyebrow in surprise and said, "Aunt, I've been protecting them all the way. Now that we're almost home, I want to take them back with me. It shows how much I care for you and the child! How about this... let Lord Langzhi accompany you back first, and we'll hurry back..."
Upon hearing this, Langzhi was startled and glared at Xuanfeng. She laughed and said, "Tuanyue, I also want to tell you how much I miss you! But... I raised this little one myself, and I'm afraid she'll cry if she's separated from me..." As she spoke, Langzhi winked at Xuanmiao.
Xuanmiao understood, quickly stretched out her little hand towards Langzhi, and opened her mouth to cry, "Ah..."
"Xuanmiao, are you looking for your grandfather?" Qingyue's voice was soft and gentle, but for some reason, there was a hint of eeriness in this kind of friendly voice.
"Oh..." Xuanmiao blinked and withdrew her little hand, put it in her mouth, and sucked on it uneasily.
Qingyue was pleasantly surprised by Xuanmiao's astute observation. She tapped Xuanmiao's cheek with her fingertip, "You little rascal! You can even read people's expressions?!"
"Hehe..." Xuanmiao chuckled awkwardly twice, quickened the speed of sucking his fingers, and glanced at Su Yuyao with his big, round eyes.
Su Yuyao felt sorry for Xuanmiao, but seeing Qingyue's expression, she dared not make any rash moves, so she blinked her eyes hard at Xuanfeng.
Xuanfeng received Su Yuyao's signal, mustered his courage, and said, "Uh... Auntie, the little one seems sleepy. Let the maid take her to sleep."
"Ha..." Xuanmiao yawned in perfect coordination and began to tug at Qingyue's clothes.
"Oh dear! Miao'er! How could you grab Grandma's clothes like that? Come here to your mother!" Su Yuyao took the opportunity to pick Xuanmiao up from Qingyue's arms.
Xuanmiao immediately perked up, standing in Su Yuyao's arms, holding Su Yuyao's chest, and watching the crowd with an expression of watching a good show.
Qingyue straightened her cuffs, turned and walked towards the crane, and everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Qingyue nodded the crane's head, and the crane gracefully flew into the air, while Qingyue remained standing steadily.
"I will ride back with you!" Qingyue said softly.
"Ah..." A commotion erupted!
Everyone's hearts jumped into their throats. They looked at each other, searching for a way out, and finally all their eyes were on Langzhi.
Langzhi also tried to send her gaze out, but she couldn't quite manage to.
He scratched his nose helplessly, smiled and walked forward, put his arm around Qingyue's shoulder and said, "Tuanyue, this is great! Our family is finally reunited. Hurry up and get in the car, let's warm up together!"
As she spoke, Langzhi winked at Xuanfeng, who nodded slightly, took Xuanmiao from Su Yuyao's arms, and said softly, "You ride Ruixue, and I'll take the little one to ride..."
Xuanfeng glanced at the shadow's disdainful expression, still vividly remembering the feeling of riding it in the Heavenly Palace. Although he was a Heavenly Lord, his physical body was not much different from that of an ordinary person. Having finally escaped the spider silk shackles, he couldn't afford to cause trouble for his little brother again!
"I'll take the little one on a sandstorm ride." Xuanfeng released a wisp of Qi that transformed into a green cloth strip, binding Xuanmiao to his chest.
"Giggle giggle!" Xuanmiao waved her little arms excitedly in front of Xuanfeng's chest and laughed loudly!
"Let me hold him," Su Yuyao said, still worried. "You've never held a baby before!"
"Then I need to learn even more!" Xuanfeng gently touched the back of Su Yuyao's head and kissed her forehead. "Don't worry!"
Su Yuyao began to crave this feeling of being pampered again. She pursed her lips, blushed, and nodded.
Qingyue turned slightly, dodging Langzhi's hand, and glanced at Xuanfeng and Su Yuyao, who were whispering and puffing out their cheeks, "Yao'er! Get in the car with me!"
"Huh?" Su Yuyao's heart skipped a beat, and she raised her eyelids to look at Xuanfeng.
"Aunt!" Xuanfeng shielded Su Yuyao behind him and said to Qingyue with a smile, "You and Lord Langzhi haven't seen each other for a long time. You can have a good chat in the carriage. We won't disturb you any longer!"
"No need! Xuanfeng, bring Miao'er up here too!" Qingyue said coldly.
"Tuanyue! It's been so long since we last met..." Langzhi stepped forward and put his arm around Qingyue's shoulder, saying with a grin, "Shouldn't we have a good chat..."
"Langzhi," Qingyue said softly, "now that you're with Yuqing, don't bother me anymore. Our fate is over!"
After saying that, he walked towards the carriage without looking back...
