Free Web NovelChapter 656: Departure, Imperial City
"Next month, we’ll go to the Imperial City for half a month." Yin Yang said with a smile.
"Great, great." Xu Mumu quickly nodded.
The couple had decided to go to the Imperial City, and this matter naturally needed to be informed to Professor Song and Professor Jian.
"I’m going to resign this semester." Professor Song said painfully. He also wanted to have fun and live a leisurely life. Teaching those students wasn’t as enjoyable as teaching Doudou, who was smart and cute, and the joy of their lives.
"I’m resigning too, I’ve worked my whole life, I’m tired." Professor Jian agreed, looking exhausted. They would be gone for over half a month, maybe even a month, and not seeing Doudou for so long killed his motivation to teach.
"You should have thought about this earlier. You all are not young anymore, working so hard every day. Always thinking about those complicated subjects, be careful of senile dementia." Yin Yang said unceremoniously.
"You brat, we’re not old." Professor Song, unwilling to admit aging, slapped Yin Yang on the back. This brat is definitely not his grandson, annoying!!
"Yes, yes, grandpa, you’re not old at all, it’s Yin Yang who’s recently become nearsighted." Xu Mumu quickly held back the angry Professor Song and Professor Jian who wanted to teach Yin Yang a lesson.
"Hmph, Mumu is still the best." Professor Song glared at his eldest grandson. Now that he has a granddaughter-in-law and a great-grandchild, the eldest grandson isn’t that important anymore.
Yin Yang, who was despised, didn’t know what to say. Ever since Doudou came into the family, his family status had plummeted.
Xu Mumu took Doudou to the convenience store to tell Li Caixia about their plan to go to the Imperial City next month. She wanted to invite her mother to go too, but eventually gave up because there was a pregnant woman at the Xu Family. They wouldn’t feel at ease leaving her behind, and taking Jiang Yuxiu with them wasn’t an option with her belly so big and inconvenient for travel.
"Going for so long?" Li Caixia was a bit reluctant as the house grew quieter.
"Yes, just going for a short trip and bringing Doudou to see the world." Xu Mumu laughed. If her younger brother didn’t have school, she would have brought him along too.
The Xu Family had been especially blessed these past few years, with many kids in the family, two more cousins, and soon two more in the fourth generation, truly a thriving family.
"Alright, make sure to watch over Doudou while you’re out there. Kidnappers are getting bolder these days, it’s all over the news. I don’t even dare let Fengfeng go to school alone." Li Caixia earnestly advised Xu Mumu.
"Mom, we’re not leaving for the Imperial City right away, it’s next month." Xu Mumu said, half-laughing, half-crying. Was her mother reminding her a bit too early? Honestly, she’d like those kidnappers to try something so she could deal with them directly.
"I just have to start early, remind you a few times so you’ll pay extra attention. This way, I won’t have to worry about anything dangerous." Li Caixia calmly said.
"Yin Yang always brings bodyguards on business trips." Xu Mumu said softly.
"Bodyguards?" Li Caixia widened her eyes, she really didn’t know this.
"Yes, like in the TV shows, very tough. Don’t worry, there won’t be any danger." Xu Mumu said helplessly.
"How tough are the bodyguards?" Li Caixia asked curiously.
"Very tough, not a problem for one to take on ten." Xu Mumu thought of the bodyguards and their muscular bodies, she could feel their strength beneath those muscles.
She’s a Power Ability user after all, and she definitely understands strength better than people in this world.
The bodyguards Yin Yang hired, well, they were actually his people. He even had a large security company under his name that handled all sorts of bodyguard tasks.
"That impressive?" Li Caixia was genuinely curious about these bodyguards.
"Of course." Xu Mumu nodded with a smile.
Xu Mumu also informed Yu Xinyao about their trip to the Imperial City, so she wouldn’t find them gone if she came over while they’re away.
Knowing that Xu Mumu was going to the Imperial City, Yu Xinyao was full of envy.
"I really want to go too. Before having a baby, I had work. Now that I’m pregnant, I can’t go anywhere at all." Yu Xinyao looked at Xu Mumu with a face full of envy.
"If you want to go, after the baby is born, let Huo Qingze take you." Xu Mumu said with a smile.
"By that time, he’ll be drowned in work again." Yu Xinyao complained. Huo Qingze always seemed to have endless work. Sometimes she felt wronged, especially after getting pregnant, her emotions became more sensitive.
But every time she felt down, Huo Qingze would patiently comfort her, which was very reassuring.
"You should tell him to adjust his time. There’s always endless work, and there are so many people in the company. If he’s doing everything, what’s the point of hiring others?" Xu Mumu gently calmed Yu Xinyao’s emotions.
"I’ll tell him exactly that next time." Yu Xinyao’s eyes instantly lit up.
"That’s right, if you’re uncomfortable, just express it. Huo Qingze doesn’t seem to be the expressive type. If you don’t say it, you might just be upset on your own, and he wouldn’t know a thing." Xu Mumu said earnestly.
"True, this guy is just as you said, straightforward, sometimes utterly unromantic." Yu Xinyao started to complain.
With Xu Mumu’s guidance, Yu Xinyao felt much better on her way back.
Time flew by, and soon it was time to leave for the Imperial City.
Knowing Xu Mumu didn’t like taking trains, he had directly booked flight tickets. It took only three hours to reach the Imperial City by plane.
The little one, knowing they were going to the Imperial City, was beyond excited.
In the Imperial City, Yin Yang had already arranged for someone to clean the courtyard house.
The small courtyard they previously stayed at had been rented out, so they could only stay at the Prince Mansion in the Imperial City.
But that place is luxurious, and the little one would probably love it.
The little one wasn’t flying for the first time, but was still extremely excited.
"Mom, the plane is flying so high, I want to touch a cloud." The little one looked at the white clouds outside the window with eyes full of wonder.
"But you can’t reach them; it’s very dangerous up that high." Xu Mumu said helplessly. The little one always had so many whimsical ideas. Wanting to touch a cloud? Why not just fly up to the sky?
"Oh." The little one’s voice dropped several octaves in disappointment, making Xu Mumu want to laugh.
"When will we get to the Imperial City? I miss second uncle and third uncle, and also third aunt and fourth aunt." The little one counted with his fingers.
