Listening to his seventh uncle start a long phone call, Ming Yi had originally intended not to let family matters interfere with the survival of the clan, but now he had changed his mind.
Only by fully enjoying these things could he truly feel everything around him and understand his true heart.
"I was wondering if you weren't going to call me for the past few days. If you didn't, when you get back, it won't be as simple as treating me to a good meal or going to an amusement park."
As soon as the call connected, Shi Yiling on the other end said indignantly.
"I'm calling now, how could I forget you..."
When Ming Yi and Ning Fengzhi were on the phone, the uncle and nephew were almost identical. After getting married, they were both completely henpecked.
They spoke cautiously, occasionally exchanging glances, then they both looked at each other with a sense of mutual appreciation and patted each other on the shoulder.
Is this the world of mature men? It's not easy!
...
Speaking of going home, Lin Xiao finally returned home.
It's only a few more days until the New Year.
However, Lin Xiao is afraid he won't have much time to spend with his wife and daughter during this New Year.
In the past, he was away, guarding the border in the northern region, and didn't even know he had a daughter. But now, even though he is in Shashi, he knows he may not have much time to accompany his wife and daughter.
Looking at the current situation, there will likely be many troubles during the New Year.
After all, his serum is used to save people, but it cannot prevent infection.
And now, a large number of people have already been infected in the first wave. Even if the fourth dose of the vaccine comes out, it won't be of much use. Those who survive have developed antibodies, as for those who have worsened...
They can only continue to be treated.
Especially recently, many people have expressed that inactivated virus vaccines alone are not effective and that mRNA vaccines are needed. In Long Guo, these are rare.
These are troubles, not only in terms of medical pressure but also public opinion and some malicious individuals.
He needs to carefully manage these around the New Year.
People's hearts are unpredictable.
Fortresses are often conquered from within.
"How is it, are you tired?"
When Lin Xiao returned, Luo Qinghan immediately started fussing over him.
Lin Xiao sat on the sofa, watching his wife pour him water and ask him about everything. In his eyes, he unexpectedly saw the figure of his long-deceased mother.
In return, women are so similar to each other.
He smiled and pulled Luo Qinghan into his arms. "Don't worry, your husband is so capable, he won't get tired."
"That's not necessarily true." Luo Qinghan struggled in his arms. Knowing that she couldn't break free with her strength, she could only give up and leaned into Lin Xiao's embrace, saying softly, "With great ability comes great responsibility. I'm just worried that you're taking on too much. You were anemic the last time you came back. I'm afraid you'll have low blood sugar and kidney deficiency this time."
"You expect me to have kidney deficiency?" Lin Xiao pinched her nose in annoyance. "Can't you think of something good?"
"Who knows? Staying up late can easily lead to kidney deficiency. I haven't seen you sleep well lately, have I?" Luo Qinghan caressed his chest and then said gently, "Promise me, you must take care of yourself. I don't care what others think, you are my husband, you have to be well."
"Don't worry, if I'm gone, won't you have to live as a widow? I can't bear to leave such a beautiful wife like you." Lin Xiao said, placing his hand on Luo Qinghan's hip.
"You, be careful, the children might see."
Luo Qinghan quickly adjusted her posture to avoid being seen. She glanced around nervously. Fortunately, no one else saw. Her parents were finishing up their work in these last few days, Xuan'er and Luo Bing were playing in the game room upstairs, and Zhuge Lan and Dongfang Jingjing and their group had gone out to play.
Besides the servants, there were only the two of them at home.
From the moment they started to be intimate on the sofa, the servants had already wisely retreated.
They were all adults, so they had common sense, especially those who worked as servants in wealthy families. They naturally knew what they could and could not see.
The young couple didn't want to be seen being intimate.
"Don't worry, everything is under my control." Lin Xiao's hand was still restless. His lips were almost touching Luo Qinghan's ear, and his voice was magnetic and soft. "It's been a while, doesn't my wife miss me?"
Ultimately, even though they had children, they were still like lovers in the midst of a passionate romance. It was impossible not to miss each other.
For five years, she hadn't conceived, so she didn't have much of a physical need. But now, when Lin Xiao was away, she thought of him almost every night, but she knew she couldn't disturb him casually.
Now, with Lin Xiao's words and his restless hands, she wrapped her arms around Lin Xiao and kissed him fiercely.
"Brother Bing, you don't let me win even in games!" Xuan'er muttered as she came out to find some snacks. Suddenly, she noticed her parents kissing downstairs. She thought of the reactions of people on TV and instinctively became stealthy. Then she directly lay down, exposing only a pair of eyes over the railing.
Luo Bing also just came out. As soon as he saw Xuan'er like this, he quickly leaned over. Just as he was about to speak, Xuan'er covered his mouth with her hand and then pointed downstairs.
Only then did Luo Bing see Lin Xiao and Luo Qinghan.
He quickly nodded, and then, like Xuan'er, they both lay on the ground, exposing only their eyes and looking down.
Lin Xiao naturally noticed this. After kissing Luo Qinghan passionately, he separated and lowered his voice, holding Luo Qinghan and whispering in her ear, "Xuan'er is watching you from upstairs."
"Ah?"
Upon hearing this, Luo Qinghan's body tensed. Her face, which had already turned slightly red from arousal, instantly flushed crimson. She instinctively looked up.
Those two pairs of small eyes were staring at them from the second floor.
This was a disaster.
Luo Qinghan hurriedly got out of Lin Xiao's embrace, tidied her clothes. Wasn't she embarrassing herself in front of her daughter?
"Xuan'er, did you miss Daddy?"
Lin Xiao also got up and waved upstairs.
"Ah, we've been discovered."
Xuan'er quickly shrank back with Luo Bing, looking as if something bad had happened.
