"Dang it!"
Yun Che couldn't help cursing. Since Fei Ye had taken pictures of the mutant human research base, he must have made his way into the base and he was capable of doing so without being noticed easily. But Dark Shadow and Gao Wei were a team. Although Gao Wei couldn't possibly notice every teeny tiny detail, what if he had? If Gao Wei had, Fei Ye would be dead… No, Fei Ye wouldn't be killed but would definitely be turned into the strongest mutant human.
Other people were still a little confused about why Yun Che cursed. Xing Feng held him by the shoulder and said in a low voice, "Send him another email to ask him to leave the northeast right away."
Even though Xing Feng and Fei Ye were enemies, Fei Ye had done all those for the sake of Yun Che. At this moment, Xing Feng couldn't be mean and get jealous irrationally.
"Hmm."
Yun Che nodded with a gloomy face. He then tapped out another email quickly to Fei Ye. Other people seemed to come back to their senses and put on sullen looks. Even though Fei Ye had only interacted with Yun Che most of the time when Fei Ye lived with them, Yun Che took him as a friend so other people naturally accepted Fei Ye. At this moment, their friend was in danger, how would that not concern them?
"Just wait for his replay since we're not even sure when he would see it."
Yun Che put his laptop aside and rubbed his nasal bone anxiously. The atmosphere turned slightly dreary with everyone being silent. No one broke the ice except Yun Yao who came to tell them lunch was ready.
"Yao, I love you so much!"
Chu Haoling who hadn't had any decent food for a long while was this close to drool right away. He opened his arms and was going to give Yun Yao a passionate hug. Lu Haixuan grabbed him by the neck and pulled him to the table. "Didn't you say you've missed Yao's food? Just dive it."
As he spoke, Lu Haixuan reached out for a big stewed drumstick and put it to Chu Haoling's bowl.
"Hmm… Yummy… Humans do need to eat…"
Tempted by the cuisines, Chu Haoling instantly neglected Lu Haixuan's interception and took a bite of the extraordinarily delicious drumstick. Happiness instantly climbed on his face.
"Every time I see Haoling eating, I have the appetite."
Ye Xingchen and Jiang Shang also sat down. Hearing Ye Xingchen's words, Jiang Shang immediately reached for the other drumstick and put it to Ye Xingchen's bowl. "Xingchen, eat."
"Huh… Okay."
Confronted with the resentment in people's eyes, Ye Xingchen took the chopsticks with a smile. Not as rudely as Chu Haoling, Ye Xingchen peeled off a piece of softly-stewed meat with chopsticks and put it into his mouth. The aroma of the meat instantly filled his mouth. "Well, indeed, Yao's getting better and better at cooking. Shang, get me a bowl of soup."
"Okay."
Jiang Shang would never reject Ye Xingchen's request. Seeing the two men enjoying the food, others started to eat successively. During the seclusion or the fights with beasts, they were too lazy to cook and just ate wild fruits even though they could cook. It had been over a year since they ate fresh food. Let alone Chu Haoling, everyone became foodies, having the chance to enjoy cuisines again. They finished all the dishes as quickly as fierce wind blew the leaves.
"Meat, my meat…"
"Dad, eat meat…"
"Waa-waa… Dad…"
The babies who had just been placed on the children seats burst into cry, seeing the meat and seafood on the table reducing rapidly. Their favorite meat was being eaten up. Yun Che and Xing Feng were embarrassed to see that.
"Yangyang, don't cry."
The elder brother Xing Shining was upset as he looked at his pouting brothers. Out of blue, Xing Shining shook his right hand and soundlessly let out the air combined with the strong and the tender powers.
"Clap…"
"What the f*ck is he doing? Doing acrobatics?"
"Che, could you control your son?"
"Ahem… Ningning, dishes down. We'll leave them to you."
"Young master, good job. Don't leave them any food!"
In an instant, all the dishes on the table flew into the air. The people eating happily were immediately upset. Seemingly, they didn't notice they were dining while neglecting the babies until now. Heiyu, the trouble maker, even added trouble by clamoring. Yun Che grabbed him up and tossed him away.
"Enough, Ningning. Put the dishes down. I'll get you whatever you want."
Yun Che heaved a sigh resignedly and picked up the chopsticks. It seemed a bad thing that kids were too strong. The three siblings were an example. One had a bad mood and everyone else had a bad mood consequently.
"Meat."
The three chubby babies turned to Yun Che at the same time. They screamed for meat, pouting. Before Yun Che responded, Chu Haoling said, "Still want more meat. You should eat more vegetables in case you'd become as fat as your cousin when he was young."
"I wasn't fat!"
Well, even the last target was attacked. Chenchen gave it a thought and protested against Chu Haoling loudly, "They're not fat either. They're just chubby!"
"Haha…"
That term which hadn't been used in front of the people for a long time set the room in a roar instantly. As Chenchen grew up, he was getting taller and slimmer. It took a long time for him to get rid of that term. Now, as Yun Che's three sons grew, the term would probably be misused for a few more years.
"Dad, what's 'chuppy'?"
Yun Ziyang who still couldn't pronounce words correctly asked with curiosity, his head tilted. Unlike the baby Chenchen, the siblings didn't mind a lot that people said they were fat. After all, the siblings had been called fat babies whenever Yun Yao took them out. Gradually, the siblings got used to it. But hearing Chenchen corrected the term righteously, the siblings were very curious about that.
"Ahem… Chubby is used to describe the fair, tender, cute babies like you."
Yun Che coughed unnaturally and restrained himself from laughing. He didn't expect that Chenchen cared so much about that and still refused to admit that he had once been fat.
"Oh, 'chuppy', we're 'chuppy'."
"Yes, chubby."
The three siblings acted like adults. Apparently, they also liked that term a lot.
Well, they would never stop misusing the word chubby.
Except Yun Che and the babies at the spot, everyone else had this in his mind: Isn't it normal that the word chubby is used in a wrong way with such an unreliable father as Yun Che?
"Okay. Shall we just eat? Ningning, put the dishes down."
Yun Che really didn't want to carry on that topic any more so he changed the subject helplessly. Xing Shining tilted his head and took a look at Yun Che before pouting and waving his hand. Then, the dishes fell onto the table from the air successively, without any juice spilling out.
"Come on. Eat. There's a lot of meat, enough for you to eat yourselves sick. Don't worry you won't have food."
Yun Che immediately put a piece of soy-braised pork to each baby. Next to him, Xing Feng pilled the shell off a big lobster. After the scene, people lost their appetite. They didn't start to eat again until the babies' bowls were filled with meat. It took them almost an hour to finish the meal.
The babies usually had a nap after lunch. Xing Feng and Yun Che put the babies down for a nap. After the babies fell asleep, the couple laid on the sofa in an exaggerating manner.
"Like I said, they'd be naughty when the grew older. I didn't feel this tired when I took care of Chenchen."
As his body slid, Yun Che directly laid down and rested his head on Xing Feng's legs. They had to tell stories to make the babies sleep. Fortunately, Yun Che had collected quite many story books. for Chenchen Otherwise, it would kill him to make up stories on his own.
"They're much naughtier than Chenchen."
With his fingers running through Yun Che's soft hair, Xing Feng also heaved a sigh. Being tired yet happy was the real emotion portrayal of Xing Feng at this moment.
"Already feel tired? You shouldn't complain about that until you see them being really naughty."
Yun Yao came over after the clean-up and then said angrily.
"What? Could they have done anything else big?"
Upon figuring out the implication of Xing Feng's words, Yun Cheng, who leaned against Leng Yehan, slightly narrowed his eyes and put on a light smile with interests while other people pricked up their ears silently. They were stuffed so that they didn't want to move.
"How could they not? They…"
Yun Yao elaborated the babies' achievements in the past year, knowing that the people wanted to seize the chance to know more about the past of the children. The achievements included that the babies had beaten the grandson of the neighbor yesterday and attacked the parents with thunder. "It's so irritating, isn't it? Over the last year, I've done nothing more often than I've apologized."
"I can just say this. That's so typical of Feng and Che's sons! How very impressive!"
People took a look at each other. Chu Haoling put his thumbs up while Shen Rui and other people couldn't help but titter. Should they say that Yun Che had strong DNA or both the couple had strong DNA? Their sons were totally the baby versions of Yun Che.
"Ahem… I don't think it's a big deal. You know boys. They're naughty. Plus, they never have trouble with each other. They know to love each other and work together against others at this young age. I'm sure that they'll have a bright future."
Tan Weiye who always protected the babies tried his best to defend for the siblings. Meanwhile, he turned to Xing Feng and Yun Che more than once in fear that the couple would pick up his sleeping nieces and beat them up.
"The strong are respected. Other children couldn't defeat young master because they were not capable of doing so."
Heiyu who always protected the babies like a father said with his chin slightly up. He didn't think it wrong to do that at all and even felt proud instead.
"Like sis said, they beat up the older kids each time. That's not bullying the weak, is it?"
As the babies' uncle, Yun Cheng of course needed to put in some good words for his nephews. Ye Xingchen and other people instantly echoed with a nod, "Can't agree more. It's even possible that the older kids bullied them first."
"You guys…"
Yun Yao pointed at them resignedly. How could they boil the kids like that? If they did raise the kids that way, the kids were likely to end up knowing nothing about rules, weren't they?
"Che, say something."
"What?"
Yun Che who was obviously absent-minded raised his head reflectively. Then, he soon came back to his senses. "Never mind. They won't have a chance to beat other kids any more. But here's something odd. No dots on the air panel represent my sons. Theoretically speaking, even ordinary people have their own blue dots on the air panel."
Yun Che had been studying that so that he missed their conversation.
"What do you mean? They don't exist on your air panel?"
Everyone turned solemn. Yun Che's air panel never acted up.
"Yeah, they're totally absent from it. I'm not sure if they existed on it in the past. I could never feel their superfunction level when they harnessed superfunctions, so I wanted to check their level by the air panel. But nothing's there, not even the blue dots that represent ordinary people."
Yun Che couldn't help but frown tightly at that. The same thing had happened only once when Dark Shadow appeared. But it was normal that he hadn't been shown on the air panel since he wasn't the noumenon of Dark Shadow. However, the babies were lying on the crib next to Yun Che. How come the babies were not presented?
