Chapter 1206: They Have to Wait for Two or Three Days

The two kids came out of their room and went to the door of Lin Qiao’s bedroom. Wu Yueling twirled the doorknob and slowly pushed the door open. Then, the two kids stuck their heads into the door to look at their parents.

The two parents were both lying quietly and unharmed. However, a stream of energy was flowing inside their bodies. The kids couldn’t see the energy, but were able to feel it.

Wu Yueling had triggered her superpower, so she could more or less sense the energy. Meanwhile, Teng was a special kid. Even though he hadn’t triggered his superpower yet, he could still sense a lot of things, such as the presentiment that had been occurring recently and the energy inside his parents’ bodies.

“Daddy?” Wu Yueling looked at the two people on the bed, whose eyes were closed, and then at Teng. She wanted to go near them and wake them up, but the unusual energy coming from their body scared her. So, she stayed by the door and called her father gently.

“Alright, don’t call them,” Teng said to her, “They won’t wake up now. Let’s get closer to see how they’re doing now.”

He couldn’t even feel the spirit connection between his Mama and himself, meaning that his parents couldn’t hear Wu Yueling right now.

“Why?” Wu Yueling looked at him confusedly. While speaking, she slowly moved toward Lin Qiao’s bed.

“Because they can’t hear you,” Teng held Wu Yueling’s neck to prevent himself from falling, then turned to look at his parents while answering her question. While walking closer and closer to the bed, she gave him a glance without fully understanding what he said.

As Wu Yueling stopped walking, Teng spent quite a while staring at the two on the bed, then sighed with relief, “They’re fine. But, I think it’ll take about two days for them to wake up. Alright, let’s go.”

While speaking, he pointed at the door.

With hesitation, Wu Yueling glanced at the two on the bed, then carried Teng out of the room, “But, no one is going to boil the water for us to wash our faces…”

“You don’t need to worry about that,” said Teng carelessly, “Aunty Duan and Uncle Xiao will be here soon. We can ask them to boil the water for us. Let’s just sit on the couch and wait for them.”

So, the two kids, who hadn’t brushed their teeth yet, cuddled in a blanket and curled on the couch to wait for the aunt and uncle to come. They had to wait there for two hours, because they got up too early.

Teng sensed the two before they even came to the door. “Hurry up, go, go, open the door! They’re here!” he hurriedly pushed Wu Yueling.

Wu Yueling got off the couch and put on her shoes, then turned back to wrap Teng up with the blanket. Only after doing that did she run to the door and step onto a stool, the twirl the doorknob and open the door.

Holding the door, she stuck her head out of the door and looked outside, seeing two people coming from the hallway near the stairs. After opening the door, she ran back to the couch and got onto it, cuddling with Teng to make herself warm.

Duan Juan and Xiao Licheng ran into each other on the stairs. Duan Juan lived in the building, and Xiao Licheng was just coming up. As they arrived at Lin Qiao’s apartment, they found the door open already. Looking inside, the saw the two kids curling on the couch, looking at them with sparkling eyes.

“Eh? Lin Qiao? Did you guys sleep late today?” Seeing the two kids’ messy hair, Xiao Licheng came in and closed the door, then dropped his bag and asked the kids with surprise. Then, he turned to the door of Lin Qiao’s bedroom, as if he had suddenly sensed something.

“Something is happening in Chief’s room,” Duan Juan said to him seriously. She hadn’t even dropped the things in her hands yet.

Xiao Licheng nodded; he had felt that too. The two of them walked to Lin Qiao’s bedroom together and knocked on the door, then opened it and looked inside. Lin Qiao and Wu Chengyue were lying on the bed quietly, without reacting to them at all.

Duan Juan and Xiao Licheng glanced at each other, then walked toward the bed.

“Uncle…” Wu Yueling stood by the door and held the door frame as she stuck her upper body in and looked at the two while calling Xiao Licheng. The latter immediately twirled back to look at the girl with surprise, “Ling Ling, did you just call me?”

Wu Yueling nodded slightly.

Xiao Licheng walked to her happily and bent over, then scooped her up and said, “Great! Call me again!”

The kid actually talked! When did she start to talk? Why didn’t he know about that?

“Uncle… We haven’t… brushed teeth and washed faces yet…” Wu Yueling looked at him and said carefully.

“Did you two get up by yourselves? Have they been like this the whole morning?” Duan Juan made a few steps toward Xiao Licheng and said to Wu Yueling with a soft voice.

Wu Yueling nodded again.

Xiao Licheng was happy to know that the kid had started to talk, so he instantly forgot about the two on the bed. After all, the little girl never had the courage to talk again since her father lost control of himself and scared her. It had been quite long. Xiao Licheng thought it would take longer for her to recover from that trauma.

“It’s okay. I’ll boil the water for you guys and fix you two some breakfast. Just wait for a few minutes,” Xiao Licheng said. He didn’t plan to ask the kids about what happened to their parents. After all, the kids might not know.

The two on the bed seemed to be in a strange state. It looked like that they were absorbing energy together. Anyway, they seemed fine, so taking care of the two kids was more important.

“When will they wake up? Is that a level-eight beast nucleus in her hand? Based on the amount of energy left in that nucleus, they didn’t absorb much last night. Can’t they stop the absorption?” Duan Juan turned to the two on the bed and said.

Her Chief had a full schedule today. She wouldn’t possibly absorb energy at that time of the day. So, since she still didn’t wake up, there must be an accident. She was definitely unable to wake herself up.

She guessed the Wu Chengyue was in the same situation.

Xiao Licheng had already walked out of the room. He didn’t take Duan Juan’s words seriously, but said to her, “I guess they won’t wake up until they have absorbed that beast nucleus entirely. Come on, Ling Ling, you two sit on the couch. I’ll go and boil the water for you.”

Duan Juan put her bag on a cabinet in the living room near the wall. On that cabinet was Wu Chengyue’s bag and a stack of files that he put there last night. After dropping her bag, she looked for a comb to brush Wu Yueling’s hair.

At that time, Teng sat up from the blanket and said, “Don’t worry. Mama and Daddy will wake up in a few days. So, just pile their works up in the next few days.”

Duan Juan found the comb. Hearing Teng’s words, she smiled as she sat down beside Wu Yueling, “What else can we do? That’s our only choice.”

“Is your Uncle Xiao good at cooking?” she asked Wu Yueling while brushing the girl’s hair.

After a short silence, Wu Yueling turned to look at the kitchen, then leaned toward Duan Juan and whispered to her with hesitation, “Not as good as Daddy…”

She meant that Xiao Licheng’s food was edible, but not good.
