Chapter 1466: An old enemy from the past
Chapter 1466: An old enemy from the past
"I have grown a lot this month," Yu Mai was not convinced by the words of his brother-in-law and pouted with his cheeks bulging.
"How did this grow this month?" Shen Li looked at the tiny chubby mer. "I don't see you getting any taller." The size of the little one was still the same, if not for Yu Dong telling him that her daddy was a tall mer whose height was decent neither too small nor big, he would have started to worry about this little one.
"I have grown!"
Yu Mai pouted as he pointed to his waist and then motioned with his hands. "I was this big last month but now I am this big. I have grown sideways!"@@@@
Fat. He had grown fat.
Ye Liu and Shen Li were simply amused by the words of their brother-in-law. He was the first mer to proudly exclaim that he had grown fat, if there was someone else, they would have cried for three days and two nights.
However, they were happy that Yu Mai had gotten a bit more fat. In the past, he was as small and skinny as a bean sprout. It was a good thing that he had gotten fat.
"Yes, yes, our dear Mai is amazing. There is no difference between the meat growing on the legs and the meat growing on the waist. We don't discriminate between the two," Grandma Fang coaxed the little one and Yu Mai smiled happily.
"Mai, you need to sleep with us," Ye Liu picked up Yu Mai and then brought him to the room that belonged to Shen Li. "Stay with your brothers and take care of them." They needed to guard over the children, so how could they sleep?
There were a lot of treasures in their house and the head of the family was gone, if something happened then they would not be able to safeguard everything.
However, Yu Mai was no longer a child and knew that there was something wrong. He refused to sleep and kept his eyes open, however, he was just a little mer and soon his eyelids fell over his eyes and he fell asleep.
The other three children were even younger than Yu Mai. They puckered their lips and smacked them for a while before falling asleep.
Ye Liu and the others saw that they were asleep, so they did not disturb them.
Instead, they locked the doors of their house and stayed in the room.
Hours ticked by slowly, and Ye Liu whose head was moving left and right because of sleepiness, immediately stood up right.
When the others were chasing after the two other trespassers, she snuck inside the room and caught one of the two children.
"If you do not stop now, this little one will die!"
"Feng'er!" Shen Li felt his heart lurch to his throat when he saw his eldest son in the hands of the woman.
Lang's eyes widened she wanted to stop the woman but was stopped instead when the woman placed the knife in her hand against Feng Feng's neck.
"I said stop, you all better stay back or else this child will lose his head," the woman said in a low voice. She then turned to look at Fang Chi and ordered, "You come here or else!"
The dagger in Shen Li raised and fell but he did not know what to do. He turned to look at Fang Chi who was in a daze.
A second later he heard Fang Chi say, "Mu Yuxi! You have gone crazy!" No one expected him to say this, Shen Li and Ye Liu did not recognize the woman as she was wearing a mask.
But how could Fang Chi not remember this woman? When he was young, he dreamed of her and her voice was the greatest solitude for him.
That rough yet smooth voice with a hint of timbre. He knew it too well.
However, he never thought that he would hear that voice at that moment and like this!
