Chapter 5280: 5.1032 Reprimand

"Those three little ones..."

"Tomorrow, I'll arrange for them to go to the Youth Academy for studies and training. They'll be away from you for a while."

These three little rascals are truly rowdy. My wife hasn't been in good spirits lately, so it's best to let her rest quietly.

Qiao Mu yawned again, nodded, and said, "Then you watch them carefully. Mo recently... I don't know what she's up to. I've seen her meditating facing the wall for a long time. Never mind, just let her be."

"You, you just worry too much. Everyone's fine. It's you who must get enough rest and be happy every day," Mo Lian cupped her small face and kissed her cheek. "Don't make me worry."

"What's there for me to worry about?" Qiao Mu gazed into the distance.

Looking at the three little "radish heads" making a ruckus, she chuckled, her lips curving slightly. "The ten-thousand-year-old bachelor actually gets along so well with two kids."

Mo Lian couldn't help but laugh. "It? Its age only sounds ancient. In reality, it's been suppressed in the Deep Ocean Abyss for so long that it hasn't grown wiser with age at all. Its intelligence is probably only about the same as Kongkong's."

"Then Kongkong is much more mature than him," Qiao Mu said, shaking her head amusingly.

"It's good to be a child," Qiao Mu sighed softly.

In a child's world, there aren't so many complicated matters. They laugh and play, fight today, and make up tomorrow.

Mo Lian reached out and pinched her nose. "Relax, don't overthink."

Qiao Qiao turned her head and bit him, tilting her head playfully. "Got it."

Mo Lian rubbed his bitten chin, a mix of amusement and exasperation on his face.

Meanwhile,

Family Head Qin stared at a maid who had bowed and retreated after serving tea, almost smashing the teacup in his hand to the ground in anger.

"Qin Xuan," Family Head Qin called his son's full name in a stern voice.

Eldest Young Master Qin was lazily leaning by the swing set. Startled by his father's sudden shout, his hand trembled.

The wine glass he held nearly spilled all its contents.

"Father, what are you doing?" Eldest Young Master Qin looked back helplessly at his extremely angry father, pursing his lips in exasperation.

"Father, anger harms the liver. It's better for your emotions to calm down a bit."

You know anger harms the liver, and you know to let your old father's emotions calm down, so why can't you bring some glory to your old father!

"Pack up immediately and come back with me!"

"Go where?" Eldest Young Master Qin was quite helpless, staring at his father. "Dad, you handle your business, can you stop meddling in your son's affairs?"

Qin Hong was so angry his teeth itched. "What are you talking about? Are your wings hardened now, do you want to betray the organization?"

Qin Xuan sighed, put down his wine glass, and stood up. "Aren't you handling the organization's affairs?"

"It won't collapse."

Qin Hong's head seemed to emit smoke as he angrily roared, "After the Doluo Kingdom incident failed, you also need to think about future countermeasures."

"Don't forget, the Old Ancestor has high hopes for you two brothers."

Qin Xuan's eyes flickered slightly. "Got it, Father."

Seeing his poor attitude, Qin Hong felt even more irritated.

Just three words, 'got it.' But what's the use of just knowing if there's no actual action? Everything amounts to zero.

"Xuan'er, don't forget our mission," Qin Hong looked at him seriously. "You mustn't be confused."
