Unlimited estates for rural beauty-Chapter 503: The Baby Turns to Ash and Wants to Cry Without Tears (1)

The temperature had just started to rise, events were unfolding nicely, and the passionate moment was about to arrive when someone with sharp eyes suddenly turned completely dark in the face, glaring at the multi-legged creature that occupied a corner of the bed, whose two antennae were still actively exploring. Feng Xuxu was puzzled by her man’s sudden change from his usual wolfish, predatory demeanor to a face so dark, he might as well have written with it. Following his gaze, she immediately felt a forehead full of black lines forming.

Underneath the bed, Yueyue and Qiqi exchanged glances, wondering why everything had gone quiet?

"Brother, do you think Dad might have killed Mom...?" Yueyue frowned her delicate brows, her little hand still clutching her heart.

Qiqi’s small mouth twitched uncontrollably, and he rolled his eyes helplessly. Yueyue pouted and slowly lifted the bedsheet, crawling under the bed and revealing only two large eyes, peering outwards.

Worried about being discovered by the parents on the bed, Qiqi pulled her back sharply, his voice pressed low, "What are you doing? If you’re looking for trouble, leave me out of it." Seeing his sister’s innocent look, he resolved firmly that after this, no, once they were done this time, he would never again heed his sister’s words in search of thrills. It was no different from risking their lives; his heart simply couldn’t take this kind of excitement. Maybe his sister would end up playing with his life for good.

The two on the bed got dressed, and Dugu Chen, grinding his teeth, glared at the bed, wondering what other antics those two little rascals under it had in store. Feng Xuxu shrugged her shoulders, leaning against the bed, crossing her legs, fiddling with the centipede that Yueyue had deformed beyond recognition.

"Aw, I was just checking to see if there was any blood on the ground, what are you so nervous about?" Yueyue, pulled back, pouted unhappily, still chattering away at her brother.

"Are you dumb or crazy? Dad dotes on Mom so much, how could he kill her? Really, what do you have in that head of yours?" Qiqi looked at his sister with absolute contempt.

"Hmph, what if it was an accident?" She crossed her arms like a little adult, leaning against the wall with a snort.

"..." Qiqi placed a hand to his forehead, totally lost for words at his sister’s strange thoughts.

Dugu Chen didn’t know whether to laugh or cry at this moment, casting a forlorn look at Feng Xuxu embracing him on the bed: "Our daughter, isn’t she a bit too lively?"

Playing with the centipede, she paused and glanced at her distraught husband: "The seed is yours; you should know best."

"But she grew in your ’field’ for ten months, shouldn’t you know better?" he snatched the beloved centipede from his wife’s hand, looking at the two-headed, abnormal creature. With a gentle pinch, the red centipede turned into a pile of powder. He took out a pristine white handkerchief and carefully wrapped it up. This was a fine powder for making poison, as well as an antidote, and its greatest value lay in the fact that it was grown entirely on the space inside, its efficacy was undoubtedly stronger than the outside by a hundred times. He had long coveted the treasure in his daughter’s hands, but as an adult, it didn’t seem proper to ask for it, and now that it had fortuitously come into his hands, how could he let it slip away!

"Um, isn’t it good for a child to be a bit lively?"

"It’s not just a bit; she’s too lively, my dear."

Feng Xuxu turned her head and thought hard, apparently agreeing with her husband’s point, and sighed, "So what do we do now, keep free-range or pen them in?"

Upon hearing this, Dugu Chen shook his head, looked up at, no, sighed deeply towards the ceiling of the bed, "We’ll keep free-ranging them. Even if you wanted to pen them in, it would be troublesome. After all, our daughter does have some sense." She was even more mischievous than the boys.

Feng Xuxu: "..." Alright, from now on, she would have to guide her daughter patiently.

"Eh, why do I feel like I can hear my precious baby crying for help?" Yueyue cleared her ears, straining to listen more intently.
