Zerg: The female warrior's male master is acting strangely!

After Yi Yi finished handling all the gifts and took individual photos with each insect, she finally calmed down and went to eat.

When everyone moved to the dining room, the table was already set with various dishes prepared by 001. Heroyi sat in her seat, her back ramrod straight, reaching out to reach for a dish not far away.

This time, his short arms stretched out straight and he actually managed to grab a piece of meat.

Manjushri was pleasantly surprised to see this and couldn't help but exclaim, "Hey, Yi Yi can reach the food now? It seems our Yi Yi has grown taller again."

His tone was full of undisguised praise, as if the fact that his son had grown taller was a momentous event.

Upon hearing her father's praise, Holoi immediately imitated how everyone had served her food before, putting the piece of meat she had just eaten into her father's bowl.

"Thank you, Yi Yi."

"You're welcome!"

Heroi smiled at his father, then turned to serve food to his paternal grandmother beside him. Previously, when he was sitting in a chair and couldn't reach the food, his paternal grandmother had always served it to him.

Holoi was stunned: "Huh?"

Manjushri remained silent: "..."

Sirland was convinced: "..."

Sitting opposite him, Lin Zhuoran had already learned to accept new things, so there wasn't much shock on his face at this moment.

On the contrary, Ayu, who was already somewhat embarrassed and nervous, relaxed a little after seeing this scene, because he found that the atmosphere of this meal seemed to be better than last time.

During the meal, Heroi took care of almost every single insect.

Even though most of the dishes on the table were his favorites, he still generously shared them with them—serving food to his father, serving soup to his mother, adding a spoonful of steamed egg custard to his brother Lin that he couldn't reach, and handing a plate of sweet and sour pork to his brother Ayu that he couldn't turn around.

He distributed the most food to the female father because he found that as long as the female father's bowl was full, he wouldn't have time to snatch the food from the ancestral female father, and the ancestral female father wouldn't have to roll her eyes at the female father.

Every time Yi Yi finished serving a round, Wen Shu would immediately praise him, saying things like, "Yi Yi is so great!" or "Yi Yi is so good!" All sorts of witty remarks followed, unintentionally making the entire restaurant filled with laughter and joy thanks to Yi Yi's encouragement.

It was already past nine o'clock when dinner ended.

Wenshu glanced down at the time on his personal terminal and had to remind her, "Yiyi, it's time to take a bath and go to bed. You have school tomorrow."

Heroiyi was a little disappointed when he heard this. He hadn't gone back to his room to sort out the unwrapped gifts yet, and clearly didn't want to wash up so early.

Lin Zhuoran then walked over and squatted down next to Yi Yi, giving him a hug. "Why isn't Yi Yi smiling anymore?"

"Yiyi, go upstairs to take a shower now. How about I give Yiyi another present tomorrow?"

"Really? Brother Lin!" Herroyi's big eyes lit up again.

"Of course!"

Lin Zhuoran reached out and poked Yi Yi's face, only then realizing that after the outdoor class, Yi Yi had not only grown taller, but her face had also become less chubby.

"Alright, Yi Yi, go on your way. I'm going home too. See you tomorrow!"

"Okay, see you tomorrow."

Holoi was completely appeased. He stood on tiptoe and gave Brother Lin a loud kiss on the face, his eyes crinkling into crescent moons with laughter.

Lin Zhuoran smiled at Yi Yi, and as he stood up, he secretly glanced at Xierland out of the corner of his eye, then waved goodbye to them as if nothing had happened.

After Lin Zhuoran left, Ayu also wisely got up to say goodbye.

However, as he stepped out the door, Heroiyi chased after him, clutching the largest and sweetest piece of candy from the candy gift bag given to him by the ancestral female, and stuffed it into Ayu's hand.

"Brother Ayu, this is for you."

Ayu looked down at the candy in her palm, slightly warm from her body heat, then looked down at the smiling face in front of her. "Thank you, Yiyi."

Immediately, Ayu squatted down.

This time, he didn't hesitate. He took the small, perfectly cut piece of ore out of his pocket, handed it to Yi Yi, and said, "Happy birthday to our Yi Yi."

Wow! This stone is so shiny!

Holoi was stunned. The ore was emitting a soft, pale light under the moonlight. It was larger than the palm of his hand, and its surface was smooth and translucent, like a small star that had fallen from the night sky.

"Is this a gift for me?"

"Yes," Ayu reached out and hugged Yiyi, "This is a second birthday present for Yiyi."

Upon hearing this, Heroyi immediately gripped the stone tightly and hugged Brother Ayu back, kissing him on both cheeks and above his forehead. "Thank you, Brother Ayu, I like it so much."

"I'm glad Yi Yi likes it," A Yu breathed a sigh of relief.

Although his gift couldn't compare to those of the two boys—it wasn't as exquisite as a candy box, nor was it wrapped in a gift box, and there wasn't even a greeting card—he still hoped that Yi Yi could be happy every day.

After seeing Ayu off, Heroyi carefully put the small mineral into his pocket, which was bulging. He covered it with his hand as he walked, afraid that it would slip out.

When he came running back excitedly, Wenshu was just about to go and greet him when, unexpectedly, Heroin, who was beside him, beat him to it and bent down to pick up Yiyi.

"Father," Heroiyi's voice was sweet, as if she had just been pulled out of a honey pot.

"Mm," Holoyen responded.

Based on the scene of Yi Yi chasing after him, he could guess that his insect cub must have received something from A Yu. Given A Yu's personality, it was impossible for him to come empty-handed.

But he didn't ask any questions; he just lifted Yi Yi up a little to make him sit more steadily.

Wenshu walked over and patted Yi Yi's little head. "Alright, alright, it's time for a bath."

"Understood, Father."

Heroion put Yi Yi down, and Yi Yi obediently turned and went upstairs. His footsteps pattered on the stairs, and the ore in his pocket swayed with each step.

At this moment, only the two of them and Sirland remained in the living room.

Sirland put down the now-cold cup of tea in his hand and said, "You all rest now, I'm going back too."

"No way!" Heroyen immediately rejected the idea, quickly walking to his father's side to block his path.
