Chapter 315 Cub
The current time is two days after Jiang Xia left the world of Oz.
At this time, Jiang Xia was sitting in the study of his home. The trees outside the window were shining with mottled light under the bright sun, shining on him as he held the book in his hands.
There were many messy notes scattered on the maple wood desk, all of which were what Jiang Xia had gained in the previous world.
"Ugh!"
A very penetrating crying sound came from a room in the house, and at the same time woke up Jiang Xia who was immersed in the world of books.
Jiang Xia gently put down the book, and the messy books on the table floated up into the air and were placed back on the huge solid wood bookshelf standing beside him.
This is made from the misty trees in the vampire settlement, and has the ability to preserve books made in the human world for a long time.
He still vaguely remembered that this huge bookshelf was built by a group of vampires who cut down trees in the misty forest when Jiang Hui was born last time, and then transported it here with great effort.
However, it was actually an honor for them that Jiang Xia accepted their gifts, because only vampires with humanity and able to live a normal life would be allowed to come out of the foggy forest, let alone meet their creator.
"What's wrong, Jiang Hui?"
Jiang Xia gently pushed open the door of the room and looked at Jiang Hui, who was only a few months old, rolling around in the crib that seemed huge compared to her body.
And when she saw Jiang Xia sticking his head out, she started giggling again.
Jiang Xia knew then that he seemed to have been fooled again.
"You are so smart, yet you know how to use crying to attract attention at such a young age."
Jiang Xia held the petite Jiang Hui in his arms and played with her.
Although Jiang Hui is just a baby now, she has already begun to understand the world, can show expressions on her face, and is very good at playing pranks.
I don't know when I learned to pretend to cry, because as soon as I cried, Jiang Xia and Aso Yuri would immediately put down what they were doing and surround her, and she would immediately cheer up.
Although it is a story about the boy who cried wolf, they are fooled every time without exception.
After a few minutes, with a click, the door handle of the room slowly slid down and the door opened again.
Behind the door stood a tall young woman wearing home clothes with a white apron, pink slippers and a silver spatula in her hand.
"What's wrong? Is Jiang Hui feeling unwell?" Aso Yuri asked anxiously while holding a spatula.
"The wolf is coming."
Jiang Xia said softly, "She's just bored."
"The wolf will come sooner or later. The moral of your story is not good at all." Yuri Aso rolled his eyes lightly, but was obviously relieved.
She looked at Jiang Hui, who was in Jiang Xia's arms, feeling that her plan was very successful and applauding, and suddenly became furious. She felt that these two were not good people.
"If it really comes, just beat it away. Who is afraid of wolves nowadays? Don't you agree, Jiang Hui?"
Jiang Xia held Jiang Hui's armpits and showed them to Aso Yuri, and Jiang Hui seemed to understand.
It shows a trick that a mother can never resist: the smile of her human cub.
The smile hit Yuri Aso, causing a fatal blow with outstanding effect.
"Humph, you all have reasons for everything. Lunch will be ready soon. Play for a while and then come down to eat."
Aso Yuri snorted, stretched out his finger, and gently tapped Jiang Hui's little nose: "Don't play wolf in the future. If you play it again next time, I will spank your little butt."
After saying that, Aso Yuri turned around contentedly and ran back downstairs to the kitchen to prepare lunch.
"Oh my, it looks like someone is going to get beaten."
Jiang Xia gently placed Jiang Hui in her crib, laughing somewhat unscrupulously.
In fact, since Jiang Hui was born, he has always had a strange feeling. When people see a child who is very similar to themselves and inherits their blood, the desire to protect the offspring engraved deep in their genes will rise involuntarily. Not to mention, Jiang Xia really feels that he is connected by blood. This connection is very close. He actually knew it a long time ago, so he would accompany Jiang Hui to play games. After all, reading books is not as important as accompanying her.
"You two, come down for dinner." Yuri Aso's voice rang out at exactly twelve o'clock noon.
"Okay, come right away."
When Jiang Xia carried Jiang Hui downstairs, the dishes were already on the table. Of course, Jiang Hui still sat at her special baby table to drink milk.
It really is true that while I was saving the world and fighting monsters, you were still drinking milk.
"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!!"
While they were enjoying lunch, Jiang Hui, who had finished her bottle of milk, screamed as she watched the food on the table dwindle rapidly.
"What's wrong? Do you want to eat too? No, you have to be older before you can eat your mother's food." Yuri Aso picked her up from the stroller skillfully and said softly.
"Wait, no way, this is..."
Before Jiang Xia finished his words, he saw Jiang Hui's eyes light up in an instant, and there was a feeling of water ripples rising and falling deep in her pupils, and there were also many golden patterns on the baby's skin that smelled of milk.
The originally lively eyes now glowed with a faint golden color, and the surrounding air appeared to have a wave-like force. In just a few seconds, the air seemed to become sticky, like a swamp, making it impossible to escape.
The power began to spread, and most of the things around Jiang Hui seemed to have lost gravity. With the naked eye, it was visible that the ceramic bowl that was originally on the dining table was floating. The strange power offset the gravity and was rotating in the air.
"Mei Hui, her?"
Yuri Aso, who was holding Jiang Hui, was also frightened by the child's superpowers. Fortunately, she had experienced a lot and had some understanding of Jiang Xia's identity as a weirdo, so she quickly calmed down.
"whee."
Jiang Hui, with golden pupils, clapped her hands happily, but the gold in her eyes was fading rapidly. It was obvious that she could not control it and it could only be stimulated when she was happy or unconscious.
"It's okay, it's just a normal situation, just like people are born to eat." Jiang Xia looked at Jiang Hui gently.
After the gold in Jiang Hui's eyes completely disappeared, she yawned softly and fell asleep sweetly.
All the things floating in the air around were taken over by Jiang Xia silently, otherwise the awakening ability would be small, but the house would be made into a mess.
The pots, pans, and utensils gradually fell down under Jiang Xia's control, and the silver forks were hung neatly on the rack in the kitchen.
"Huh, although it's a good thing that Jiang Hui has the power, I don't want to see all kinds of things flying in the sky when I go home." Aso Yuri sighed lightly and blinked at Jiang Xia with her beautiful eyes.
As a warrior of the Supreme Blue Sky Society, Yuri Aso certainly understands the importance of having power. She does not reject power, but she thinks it is a little too early to have power now. At the same time, she does not want her children to show these in front of humans.
Because Jiang Hui is different from ordinary human children, and even in the world of vampires, she is an extremely special individual.
"Don't worry, it's okay." Jiang Xia gently hugged Aso Yuri and said gently:
"I will let Xiaohui grow up as a human being. Believe me, I can still do this little thing."
Aso Yuri moved his head in Jiang Xia's arms and said softly, "Well, I believe you."
The emerald green maple leaves outside the window turned into deep red in the blink of an eye, dyed by the power of time.
Then, ice crystals gleaming in the sunlight slowly fell, replacing the maple leaves that had turned deep red.
The endless snow fell from the already dark sky. People on the street were wearing scarves, singing cheerful songs side by side, walking on the path that had been covered with thick ice. At this moment, the bells in the distance rang out in celebration.
Suddenly, the enthusiasm that surged among people dispelled the world that seemed like ice and snow, and people cheered and celebrated.
The new year has arrived amid people's cheers.
