“Yes, I was really afraid you wouldn’t understand,” Mr. Chen continued, nodding.

"Alright, alright, just tell me already, please satisfy my curiosity, okay?" At this point, Mrs. Chen was clearly losing patience, but she had been holding back her temper because of Mr. Chen's behavior that morning.

"Okay, fine. I'll tell you then." Mr. Chen showed a reluctant expression, but then smiled and said.

However, Mrs. Chen looked at Mr. Chen with a serious expression, hoping that he could say something to her.

However, at that moment, Mr. Chen smiled and said, "I was just talking to him about sunrises and sunsets and air quality. Later, I extended the conversation to taking him to see sunrises and sunsets, going to the mountains or the beach. I also mentioned that he should experience the beauty of nature more often, go out more, and breathe fresh air. Of course, Xiaoqi will probably take him to do all these things in the future. I'll remind him again when Xiaoqi comes. I'll make sure he keeps it in mind."

“You mean this? Well, I understand what you mean. Why do you say I don’t understand? Honestly. Besides, let me tell you, you don’t need to remind them at all. They’ll figure it out themselves. Kids just need to go out and see the world, broaden their horizons. Why do you need to talk to them?” Mrs. Chen replied to Mr. Chen.

Mr. Chen, who was standing to the side, listened to what Mrs. Chen said and agreed with the points she made.

“You’re absolutely right, I know that too, but I still wanted to remind him again, isn’t it because I’m worried? Of course, I think everyone feels that way, don’t you have any worries? It’s like you know someone can do it, but you still want to remind them again.” At this moment, Mr. Chen began to speak with a serious expression.

After hearing this, what else could Chen's mother feel? What else could she say? She could only nod weakly in agreement.

"Yes, you're absolutely right, that's exactly how it is." At this moment, Mrs. Chen spoke to Mr. Chen with a smile.

"Haha, alright, alright, I've told you so much already, it's about time. Why don't you get up and rest?" Then Mr. Chen spoke up with a smile.

However, Mrs. Chen was confused by Mr. Chen's words...

"Get up and rest? What do you mean?" Chen's mother asked.

"Oh, look at my brain, it's not working properly. I didn't mean to get you up to rest, I misspoke. I meant to tell you to get up and get ready for dinner. Is that okay?" Just then, Mr. Chen, who was standing to the side, quickly said with a smile.

However, at that very moment, after finishing his speech, Mr. Chen burst out laughing again.

Seeing this, Mrs. Chen immediately smiled and said, "Oh, is that what you mean? Okay? I thought you were talking about something else. Honestly, what's wrong with you? Are you already getting confused?"

"That's for sure. I've been talking to you so much this morning that I'm dizzy. Alright, alright, get up and get ready. I'll take Qingqing to the living room to wait for you." Mr. Chen said with a smile at this moment.

However, at that very moment, they saw Mr. Chen carrying Qingqing and walking towards the door of the room, and then heading straight towards the living room.

After Mr. Chen and Qingqing left, Mrs. Chen got up and started getting ready.

In a short while, Mrs. Chen finished washing up and came into the living room...

"Qingqing, come and let Grandma give you a hug?" Chen's mother walked over to Chen's father and sat down, then stretched out her arms and began to speak to Qingqing.

However, as soon as Qingqing saw Chen's mother's gesture, she immediately buried her head in Chen's father's body and rubbed against him vigorously.

"Well, she's yours this morning, and we've established a revolutionary bond. You two can rest like this. You can hold her and play with her." At this moment, Chen's mother said helplessly.

"Hey, don't! I don't know what happened either. I've been back for so long, and I haven't even gone to the bathroom yet." Mr. Chen said anxiously when he heard Mrs. Chen say she didn't care anymore.

Seeing Mr. Chen's anxious expression, Mrs. Chen immediately laughed, then shrugged, indicating that she was also helpless.

However, at this moment, Chen's mother smiled helplessly and said, "You tell me, am I helpless? I have no choice, right?"

"What can't you do? You have something to offer, come here quickly, stop making a scene!" Mr. Chen said anxiously from the side.

"I really didn't, you saw it, Qingqing just likes you and really wants you to hug her. Didn't I just say I wanted her? But she rejected me, she wouldn't let me hug her. How can you say I have a way? Let me tell you, I have no way, I'm powerless. What can I do? There's really no way at all." Mrs. Chen said calmly.

"Qingqing, let Grandma hold you. Grandpa's going to the bathroom first, he'll be right back, okay? Qingqing is so good, Qingqing is so well-behaved, isn't she?" Seeing this, Mr. Chen quickly lowered his head and started talking to Qingqing.

After hearing what Mr. Chen said, Qingqing turned to look at Mrs. Chen, and then turned back to look at Mr. Chen, her eyes sparkling. She was absolutely adorable.

"Come on, Qingqing, let Grandma give you a hug and sing you a song. Okay?" Seeing this, Chen's mother immediately spoke to Qingqing.

Then Qingqing glanced at Chen's mother again, and then started rubbing against her...

"Hurry up and come back quickly!" Just then, Chen's mother, who was standing to the side, said with a smile.

"Okay, I understand. Don't worry, I'll be right back." Mr. Chen said helplessly after hearing this.

Mr. Chen was thinking, "Why don't I even have free time to go to the toilet these days?" He shook his head helplessly as he thought of this.

After watching Mr. Chen leave, Mrs. Chen turned to Qingqing and said, "Qingqing, do you like your grandpa a lot? Yes, your grandpa is a very interesting person, isn't he?"

When Mrs. Chen said this, she spoke very softly, so Mr. Chen didn't hear it. If Mr. Chen had heard it, he would probably have been overjoyed.

However, at that moment, Chen Ling and Li Lili were seen walking out of the room and slowly heading towards the living room.

"Xiaoxue, how's your leg?" Chen's mother asked as soon as Li Lili came over.

"I saw it when I was getting dressed just now, it's much better, it's already scabbed over, it's just a little swollen." Just then, Li Lili was seen talking with a smile.

"Oh dear, it's still swollen! My goodness, are you in so much pain that you can't walk?" Chen's mother said with great concern after hearing this.

Chen's mother felt sorry for Li Lili, whose skin was so delicate, and that she must be very uncomfortable with this injury. It pained her to see her like this.

"Don't move, let me see your wound." At this moment, Chen's mother hurriedly began to speak again.

"I'm fine, Mom," Li Lili replied quickly after hearing this.

However, when Li Lili answered Chen's mother, she had already started lifting her skirt to show Chen's mother the wound.

When Chen's mother saw this, she felt very sorry for her.

With a furrowed brow, Chen's mother said to Li Lili, "Why does it look so serious? Is it nothing serious?"

"Mmm, it's okay, it's okay, don't worry, don't worry. Haha. It doesn't hurt anymore." Li Lili, who was standing next to her, quickly said with a smile after hearing this.

However, at that moment, Chen's mother, after hearing Li Lili finish speaking, immediately replied with a smile, "How could I not be worried? Really, I was terrified! Look at this wound, oh my, it looks so deep. It's so scary, how much pain must you be in?"

"Hehe, it really hurt a lot yesterday, but I feel much better today. It doesn't hurt as much anymore, since it's all scabbed over. It's just that I can't bend it yet," Li Lili said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Chen Ling quickly added, "There's really nothing wrong today. It was quite serious when we applied the medicine yesterday. Now that it's scabbed over, you can still tell how deep the wound was? You're so funny!"

"Tch, what do you think? You can tell just by looking at this wound, right? Look at this, it's so scary. The scab is so thick, the wound must be very deep." Just then, Chen's mother spoke up with a smile.

As Chen's mother was saying this, she was still looking at Li Lili's wound, because she felt that the wound was really deep and Li Lili must have suffered a lot.

However, at that moment, Li Lili smiled and said, "Mom, I'm really fine today. Yesterday, I was in so much pain that I couldn't even walk. Look, I'm much better today."

"Hey, you have to be more careful in the future. You can't be so hasty in everything you do, okay?" Mrs. Chen said, giving her instructions.

"Okay, I understand," Li Lili quickly replied with a smile.

Then Chen Ling, who was standing to the side, instructed Li Lili, "You'd better behave yourself these next couple of days. Don't run around like that anymore. Walk less and be careful, okay?"

"Yes, yes, that's fine. Don't worry, I know." At that moment, Li Lili nodded and replied immediately.

However, at this point, Chen Ling smiled and said, "That's good. I'm relieved. It saves me a lot of trouble."

"What are you talking about? What do you mean by saving so much trouble?" Mr. Chen, who had just come out of the bathroom, only caught the gist of what they were talking about and didn't know the specifics, so he hurriedly asked.

"Haha, so what do you think we're talking about? Take a guess," Mrs. Chen said with a smile.

Chapter 949 Wound Spreading 2

However, after watching Mrs. Chen finish speaking, Mr. Chen really wanted to ask her why she had been making him guess things lately. Mr. Chen was truly puzzled.

At this moment, Mr. Chen immediately asked Mrs. Chen, "What's wrong with you lately? Why do you always make me guess? Can't you just tell me what's going on? I'm not used to this."

“What’s there to be unaccustomed to? Isn’t this great? I can even help you train your IQ. You don’t need to thank me, isn’t that wonderful?” Just then, Chen’s mother said with a smile.

"Okay, okay, you've got to say that. You think this will help me improve my IQ? Don't say that. It sounds really weird and awkward to me." Just then, Mr. Chen hurriedly spoke up, looking quite nervous.

"It's not awkward at all. I think you're talking really strangely these days. I just wanted you to guess what we were talking about. It was just a joke, but you've been arguing with me for so long. I don't even know what you were thinking when you said all this to us." Chen's mother then replied with an innocent look.

However, at that moment, Li Lili, who was standing to the side, said with a smile, "Haha, Dad, we didn't say anything. We were just chatting casually."

"Hey, you two interrupted me, I really can't remember what we were talking about just now?" Chen Ling replied with a smile at that moment.

At this moment, Chen's mother immediately nodded and then said, "Hmm, that seems to be it. I can't remember what we were talking about just now. Oh, what a pity."

"Haha, you guys are putting on quite a show here. How can you forget what you were talking about so quickly?" Mr. Chen couldn't help but tease him when he saw this.

However, at that moment, Chen's mother looked at Chen's father and burst out laughing...

"Whose fault is it? It's your fault for not being here. We've already finished talking about that topic, and this opportunity is gone forever. You can't blame us." Then, Mrs. Chen replied calmly.

Mrs. Chen felt utterly helpless.

"Hehe, that's just sophistry. So it's my fault? It's my fault for going to the bathroom. Fine, you're right, I understand." Mr. Chen replied, shaking his head helplessly.

"Oh, well then, welcome to join our conversation," Chen Ling said quickly, seeing this.

However, Mrs. Chen seemed determined to bring up the very thing she didn't want to discuss, asking with a smile, "Oh, what are we talking about now? How come I didn't know?"

"Heh," Mr. Chen said with a cold laugh.

"Um, Mom, do you have to be so direct? I don't know the answer to that." Hearing this, Chen Ling turned to his father and asked with a wry smile...

"Haha, it seems to be true. I don't know what to say. What should we do? What else can we talk about? This is so awkward," Mr. Chen said helplessly from the side.

"Why hasn't Xiaoqi contacted us? We don't even know when he'll be back." Just then, Chen's mother asked.

When the topic of Xiaoqi came up, everyone seemed a little hesitant, because they really didn't know what was going on. Logically speaking, Xiaoqi shouldn't have stopped contacting them.

"Now that you mention it, it does seem to make sense. Why hasn't Xiaoqi contacted us? It's so strange," Mr. Chen muttered.

Then Chen Ling suggested, "How about I call her and ask her? What do you guys think?"

“We think this is a great suggestion. Why don’t we give him a call and ask? We’re worried about him and don’t trust him because he hasn’t contacted us. Is that okay?” Li Lili, who was standing nearby, immediately spoke up to express her opinion.

After hearing what Li Lili said, Chen's mother nodded in agreement. She thought the same thing. Everyone was quite worried about Chen Xiaoqi and the others' safety over there and wanted to ask about their situation.

So Chen's mother quickly said, "Yes, I think Xiaoxue is right. Why don't we call and ask him how things are going?"

"Sure, I'll play one then," Chen Ling said with a smile.

Just as Chen Ling was on the phone, his father overheard him saying, "They're not alone, nor are they traveling as a couple. They're a family, so there won't be any problems. You don't need to be so nervous. They're probably having so much fun that they've forgotten about us. Don't worry too much."

"Yes, I know there are a lot of them going, so there shouldn't be any danger. It's just that they haven't contacted us. I'm still worried," Chen's mother replied softly after hearing this.

At this very moment, Chen Ling's call went through.

"Hello." Chen Xiaoqi spoke loudly after answering the phone.

"Hey, Xiaoqi. What are you doing? Why haven't you contacted your family? We're really worried about you." After hearing Chen Xiaoqi's voice, Chen Ling immediately put the call on speakerphone and then asked.

"Oh, I've been playing around here the whole time and haven't had a chance to tell you. I was in a rush, so I haven't been looking at my phone much. I thought we were doing fine here, so you shouldn't be worried. After all, we're all grown up, so we're sure nothing will happen to us, right?" Chen Xiaoqi said somewhat awkwardly.

However, when Chen Ling heard that Chen Xiaoqi had been playing and hadn't paid attention, his temper flared up instantly.

Chen Ling immediately asked in a very serious tone, "What does this mean? You've been so busy that you haven't had time to think about it. How can you be so heartless? You don't care about your own daughter at all. You don't even ask her if she's crying or making a fuss?"

"Hmm? What's wrong? Did Qingqing cry yesterday?" Chen Xiaoqi, on the other end of the phone, was quite surprised to hear Chen Ling's voice suddenly become much louder, so she quickly asked...
