Although they did not know how to speak, Yu Wan understood what they meant from their innocent and nervous eyes. They weren’t angry, but they misunderstood that she didn’t like them and didn’t want to see them again.

What she saw that night was not her imagination. They were really crying in Shadow Six and Shadow Thirteen’s arms. Perhaps from that moment on, they had misunderstood that she did not want them anymore. It was only when she went to the Capital but did not keep her promise to them that they completely felt that she no longer liked them.

And the reason why she no longer liked them was because they were not obedient enough.

Why would they think that? Why would they take all the blame for themselves? Did someone blame them for not being obedient enough?

“How can there be such disobedient children? If you continue like this, I won’t want you anymore!” Yu Wan automatically imagined the scene of the three little fellows lowering their heads and being reprimanded. Her heart could not help but ache.

She hoped she was overthinking. Such cute children would be liked. She liked them, whether they were obedient or not. Even if they were like Little Zhenzhen who was quiet and obedient, or like Little Bruiser who was naughty and would run around the village, she liked them as long as it was them.

Yu Wan accepted their words and patted their little heads one by one. She had clearly promised Yu Feng and herself that she would not have anything to do with the Young Master Manor, but she realized that she had no resistance against these little fellows.

The moment she saw them, she wanted to snatch them back. When they felt slightly wronged, her heart would soften.

This was simply not like her.

Perhaps sensing the kindness in Yu Wan’s eyes, the three little fellows did not avoid her touch anymore.

Yu Wan did not know how to explain that she did not visit them. She simply changed the topic and asked, “I went to the Capital that day, but I didn’t visit you. Are you angry with me?”

The three little fellows shook their heads.

Yu Wan smiled and said, “If you’re not angry with me, then can I visit you often in the future?”

The three little fellows’ eyes widened.

Yu Wan was secretly happy, but she looked disappointed. “Can’t I? Then… then I’ll leave.” With that, she stood up and turned to leave.

The three little fellows hugged her legs!

Her acting skills were simply blinding, but the three little munchkins could not see it at all. Just a second ago, they were still hiding from her, scared that they would be despised by her. Now, they were hugging her tightly, wishing they could hang on her lap!

Aiyo, these little babies.

Yu Wan was overjoyed, but she still tried to take advantage of the little fellows. “You don’t like me and don’t want to see me.”

The little fellows were so anxious that their faces turned red. Their little mouths opened as if they wanted to speak.

Yu Wan’s eyes lit up. It would be good if she could use this opportunity for the little fellows to speak. However, the three of them held it in for a long time but in the end, nothing came out.

Yu Wan sighed secretly. She was too anxious. This kind of thing could not be rushed. Moreover, two years old was not too old. If she guided them slowly, they would be able to speak one day.

Yu Wan thought that the three little fellows were about to run out of tricks. Unexpectedly, the three of them suddenly tugged at her sleeve.

The three of them struggled to stand on their tiptoes and gently kissed her face.

That night, the three little fellows fell asleep under Yu Wan’s company.

After burying the hatchet, Yu Wan brushed their teeth and carried them to the soft bed with a thick mattress. The three of them obediently lay under the blanket, looking at Yu Wan without blinking with their big black eyes.

“I’ll leave after you guys fall asleep,” Yu Wan said as she sat on the edge of the bed.

At first, the three of them were still trying their best to hold on, but they felt extremely comfortable when Yu Wan stroked their stomachs. Their eyelids drooped, and not long after, they started snoring evenly.

Putting aside the time when she was drugged and fell asleep, this was the first time Yu Wan seriously observed the sleeping posture of the little fellows.

The three of them did not sleep well. They usually did not know how to talk, but in their sleep, they would let out a soft hum. Sometimes, they would be shocked, as if they were frightened by something.

“Did you have a nightmare?” Yu Wan touched their foreheads. Did she scare them too much just now, or had they been frightened before?

Yu Wan was not sure either, so she could only accompany them for a while. It was not until Uncle Wan finished dealing with his private matters and entered the room to guard the three little munchkins that Yu Wan reluctantly left.

Uncle Wan was extremely surprised. The few little brats slept during the day, but Miss Yu could actually coax them to sleep at night. She was really very capable.

Perhaps they did not know that Yu Wan had yet to leave, but the bolt on the front door of the Ding Manor was inserted. Yu Wan saw that the back door was still open, so she turned around and walked towards the back door.

Just as she left the central room, she bumped into the elusive Yan Jiuchao.

Young Master Yan was wearing a silver-white cloak and holding a natural hand warmer. He was as bright as a white moonlight in the dark night.

Yu Wan’s impression of him was slightly complicated. She had been saved by him and had also been tortured by him. It would be a lie to say that she was not grateful, and it would be a lie to say that she was not angry. However, on account that he was the father of the three little lads and on account that he had saved the entire Lotus Flower Village, she reluctantly became a good neighbor.

“Young Master Yan.” Yu Wan greeted him as usual.

The little snow fox flapped its claws and pounced at Yu Wan, but was cruelly pressed down by Yan Jiuchao.

Yan Jiuchao glanced at her indifferently. “It’s the middle of the night. Why aren’t you at home? Why are you coming to my house?” What improper thoughts do you have about me?

Yu Wan felt that his tone was a little annoying, but she was a good neighbor.

Yu Wan took a deep breath and slowly said, “I should be the one asking Young Master Yan this. Why didn’t Young Master Yan stay in the Capital? Why did you come to such a remote place?”

Yan Jiu raised his eyebrows. “I’m willing.”

You’re willful because you’re rich.

Yu Wan said calmly, “The thank you gift is on the table. If there’s nothing else, I’ll leave first.”

“Wait, you’re leaving just like that?” Yan Jiu called out to her indifferently. “At least heat up those dishes. The few of them are already asleep. Do you want me to heat my own food?”

So you’ve already seen my thank you gift and know why I’m here? Then why are you still asking me?!

Yan Jiuchao raised his chin and gestured in the direction of the kitchen with his eyes. “There.”

Don’t get angry, don’t get angry. I’m a good neighbor…

Yu Wan picked up a strip of raw meat on the table and a bowl of cold braised meat before walking towards the kitchen.

Unexpectedly, just as she crossed the threshold of the back door of the central room, the ground suddenly trembled violently, as if the mountains were shaking and the earth was cracking. She tripped and fell straight down.

There was a large limestone in front of her. Just as she was about to fall and break her head, a strong arm suddenly reached over and grabbed her waist in time. He pulled her into his arms and could not push her out in time. He could only carry her and spin her around. Using his body as a cushion, he landed heavily on the edge of the large limestone.
