Chapter 743: Two Small Light Bulbs
As more black gas came out of Xiao Ling’s body, Xiao Letong was really anxious. He didn’t know how to solve this. But he knew that the problem had to be solved by the people who caused it.
Just as Xiao Letong was about to expose his identity and communicate with his parents, he heard a voice coming from outside the space. His eyes turned, and he immediately made a few gestures. Then, the conversation outside the space came in.
“Tianhao, am I being too selfish? I had never considered Ling ‘Er before. If I knew this would happen, I...”
“I should have asked Xiao Ling first. Now, we’ve promised to supply millions with spring water. Even if each person only drinks a drop, that’d still add up to tens of thousands of barrels! That would take half of Xiao Ling’s life!”
“Yu ‘Er, return this water back into the space!”
As soon as these words were spoken, the water level in the spring pool suddenly became rose. Then, Xiao Ling’s face turned from pale to ruddy. The black gas emitted from his body decreased a little, but they were still there. In other words, the inner demon had not been fullydispelled!
“In the future, we’ll only provide them with the water if they send us raw stones! Otherwise, no deal!”
“Okay!”
“Luckily, Xiao Ling found a way to replenish his energy. Otherwise, I would have killed him!”
“You can’t be blamed for this. We were all thoughtless. Yu ‘Er, don’t worry. I will immediately mobilize all the jade that has been found.”
“Tianhao, thank you!”
“Silly, we’re husband and wife. There’s no need to thank me. I also treat Xiao Ling as my own son. I love him as much as I love our son. As a father, I naturally don’t want anything to happen to my son.”
Xiao Letong’s eyes lit up. He noticed that the black gas had stopped coming out of Xiao Ling’s body.
Xiao Letong shouted excitedly, “Xiao Ling, wake up quickly. Otherwise, I’ll make you write a hundred words in calligraphy!”
With a thump, Xiao Ling’s big bright eyes opened. There was still some confusion in his eyes. He subconsciously asked, “Brother, what happened to me just now? I feel like I fell asleep. But, I don’t need sleep...”
“It’s fine.” Xiao Letong ran over happily and stroked Xiao Ling’s soft fur as he said with a smile, “You did sleep just now. You’re just too tired. You needed to rest. In fact, you still need to rest. I’ll stay here and watch over you!”
Xiao Ling replied in a soft voice, “Yes, thank you, Brother!”
He felt a little sleepy and wanted to sleep for a while more.
Xiao Letong looked at Xiao Ling. Xiao Ling looked calm. Xiao Letong stopped worrying. Xiao Letong touched Xiao Ling’s fair and clean little face, and his eyes showed some heartache. He said softly, “So, you’re also afraid of being abandoned too!” Xiao Letong used to be a child who was abandoned, so he understood Xiao Ling.
Xiao Ling’s inner demon stemmed from a fear of abandonment too. First, he was abandoned by an immortal child. This had planted the inner demon in Xiao Ling, but no one had touched that part of his heart before.
But in this case, Xiao Lingyu gave away most of the spring water without asking for Xiao Ling’s opinion. Not only did it cause injuries to his body, but it also caused serious injuries to his heart.
Fortunately, Xiao Lingyu and Gong Tianhao realized their mistakes.
Indeed, they had made a deal with someone without asking for Xiao Ling’s opinion. However, they felt so guilty when they saw how badly they had hurt Xiao Ling. They instantly wanted to protect him. It was why they had that conversation. The words exchanged helped Xiao Ling solve his inner demon.
Xiao Letong grabbed Xiao Ling’s hand and said, “Xiao Ling, you are my good brother. We will always be good brothers!”
“Yes, we will always be good brothers!” At this moment, Xiao Ling suddenly replied. Then, he slowly opened his eyes and said sincerely, “Brother, thank you for everything. I knew what happened earlier.” To cultivators and relic spirits, inner demons were extremely terrifying! Xiao Ling didn’t know he had a latent inner demon. He was afraid of being abandoned too. Fortunately, that didn’t happen.
Xiao Letong pinched his face and said with a smile, “You defeated the inner demon on your own. I didn’t do anything!”
Xiao Ling’s eyes were smiling like crescent moons. He was very cute and beautiful.
Outside the space, Xiao Lingyu and Gong Tianhao had no idea how dangerous it was inside the farming space.
The matter of negotiating with that person was left to the old master. The old master would definitely not let them suffer a loss.
...
Then, Gong Tianhao brought Xiao Lingyu out.
That’s right. They went out.
They went shopping. This was the promise Gong Tianhao had given Xiao Lingyu. They would go shopping, and he would pay for everything she bought.
Since they knew the person targeting them was Leng Piaoxue, they felt more at ease. Plus, they had the extra guarantee that immortal relics couldn’t be used against mortals without backlash. So they went shopping to relax and to fish out Leng Piaoxue.
Leng Piaoxue had killed Bai Shanshan, so she would suffer a backlash. However, the people sent by Gong Tianhao had not reported any strange about Leng Piaoxue and the Leng Family. Neither of them reacted strangely.
However, it was still unclear what kind of backlash Leng Piaoxue had suffered.
In order to put on a good show, Xiao Lingyu and Gong Tianhao both dressed up in casual clothes. They were no different from ordinary couples who went shopping.
Gong Tianhao was usually very particular about how he dressed up. He was also very meticulous. It was rare for him to wear casual clothes. This only happened once in the past. It was when Xiao Lingyu was pregnant. Gong Tianhao put away his suit and leather shoes to accompany Xiao Lingyu. But that was in the countryside.
It was the first time he was strolling around in casual clothes in the capital.
Before they left, Xiao Lingyu selected the outfit for Gong Tianhao.
“How is it? Is it comfortable?” Xiao Lingyu asked with a smile as she picked out a set of white casual clothes for Gong Tianhao.
Xiao Lingyu said with a smile, “Tianhao, don’t wear a suit and leather shoes every day. It’s tiring and uncomfortable. In the future, when we can wear casual clothes, we’ll wear casual clothes. How about that?”
Gong Tianhao said with a smile, “Okay, I’ll do whatever my wife says!” In fact, wearing casual clothes was indeed comfortable.
Xiao Lingyu picked out a set of casual clothes similar to Gong Tianhao’s. They looked like a couple. Then, she tied a ponytail and wore sports shoes. It was light and comfortable.
Then, when the two of them were about to go out arm in arm...
“Mommy, Daddy, where are you going?” Xiao Letong’s voice drifted out.
The two of them paused and felt a little awkward.
They seemed to have forgotten about their beloved son.
How were they supposed to explain this?
Xiao Lingyu smiled and wanted to explain, but Xiao Letong waved his small hand and said with a smile, “You don’t have to explain. I know that you must be planning to go on a date, right? Look at the couple’s outfits you’re wearing.”
Gong Tianhao nodded and said, “Yes, your mommy and I are going on a date.” Then, he glared at Xiao Letong and Xiao Ling, who was behind Xiao Letong. ‘So, don’t come along and be lightbulbs.’
However, Xiao Letong did not seem to understand what his father meant.
He smiled and asked Xiao Lingyu, “Mommy, can you bring me along? I just came to the capital, and I really want to see the capital!”
Xiao Lingyu glanced at Gong Tianhao and said, “Ahem... Tong Tong, your father and I are going to watch a movie...”
“That’s great! I like watching movies. That means you’re going to the cinema. Mommy, I haven’t been to a cinema, and neither have brother. Mommy, bring us along, please!”
Gong Tianhao and Xiao Lingyu, “...”
Gong Tianhao said with a dark expression, “Why would we bring you? You and your mommy are going to watch a romantic movie. Do you like being the third wheel so much?”
“...” Xiao Letong said unwillingly, “It’s more romantic when the whole family is there.”
Gong Tianhao and Xiao Lingyu, “...” Forget it, let’s bring these two little light bulbs.
