Having calmed down a bit, Ren Dong began to softly tell her daughter in her arms about the incident:

"Little Lily of the Valley, don't be afraid. Actually, it's time to tell you about this."

"Ah."

"Just so you know, you're not allowed to tell Daddy, okay?"

"I understand. Dad is a bit slow, so let's not make him think so much."

Lily of the Valley nodded seriously, which made Honeysuckle laugh.

Then, holding her daughter tightly, Honeysuckle whispered in Lily of the Valley's ear:

“Dad may go on a trip someday and leave us. It may take a long time for him to find his way back.”

Linglan's eyes widened instantly as she looked at Su Rui, who was still engrossed in playing the game, and then at Ren Dong. The little girl's ears twitched, and her big blue eyes trembled slightly.

Honeysuckle made a "shh~" gesture at the corner of her mouth, signaling Lily of the Valley to be quiet, and the little girl immediately covered her mouth with both hands.

But her eyes, wide with surprise, remained fixed on the honeysuckle, filled with doubt.

Volume 1: Chapter 64 Honeysuckle: What's wrong with being a little despicable for Su Rui's sake?

After a moment, Little Lily of the Valley lowered her voice and said:

"Can't we go on a trip with Daddy?"

Ren Dong paused for a moment before realizing that her explanation had some flaws in her daughter's eyes.

However, telling the young girl the truth directly would be too cruel.

So Honeysuckle smiled and shook her head:

“We couldn’t stop him, and actually, Dad didn’t want to leave either, but he had no other choice at the time.”

...Lily of the Valley and Honeysuckle chatted quietly behind Su Rui for a long time, until Su Rui got a little tired of playing games and turned to look at his wife and daughter:

"Honeysuckle, lily of the valley? What are you talking about?"

"father!"

Just as Su Rui got up and stretched, she saw a small golden ball of fluff rushing towards her.

The soft, fleshy bump against her chest caused Suri to lose her balance and instinctively hug the little furball in her arms tighter.

If Ren Dong hadn't come and pulled him up in time, Su Rui would have fallen to the ground while holding Ling Lan.

"Alright, it's noon now. Let's go have lunch. I've prepared the ingredients. We'll be having braised pork from Yan Kingdom."

Honeysuckle smiled and told her about lunch. Suri's eyes lit up immediately. She reached out and picked up Linglan, letting her daughter sit on her arm, and then nodded.

"Okay, let's go."

'Dad's attention has been diverted again; he's so easy to fool.'

Linglan sat on Su Rui's arm, leaning on Su Rui's shoulder, thinking helplessly. Then she reached out and touched Su Rui's fluffy white fox ears on his head, feeling them twitch and wiggle, which she found very amusing.

'I need to teach Dad some common sense, otherwise he'll definitely get scammed by those bad guys when we go on a trip.'

Linglan made up her mind. The little girl was very sensible. Since she couldn't stop her father from leaving, she had to ensure his safety.

So, on the way to the restaurant, Linglan sat in Suri's lap and said in a serious tone:

"Dad, there are many bad people in the outside world, unlike the shrine we're in now. There are many people outside who want to trick you away!"

"Of course I know there are a lot of bad people out there, I'm very smart."

Su Rui chuckled and reached out to ruffle Linglan's hair, not taking the girl's words to heart, assuming that Linglan had just read similar stories recently and thought of these things.

Texas, upon hearing Suzuran's words, couldn't help but smile slightly.

"Little Lily of the Valley is right, Suri, you really need to be careful. There might be someone outside trying to kidnap you."

"I'll be trafficked? I can turn the traffickers around and sell them off."

Suri rolled her eyes dismissively, then sat down opposite Texas with Lily of the Valley in her arms, her expression becoming slightly more serious.

"I know how you all see me."

Suri's words immediately stunned Texas, the lily in her arms, and Honeysuckle who was about to cook. The three women subconsciously looked at Suri, nervously waiting for him to continue.

Did Su Rui find out about our secret conversations? Or was it a pact between me and Ren Dong to take down Su Rui?

Texas exchanged a nervous glance with Honeysuckle, fearing that their plan to exploit Su Rui's guilt had actually been foiled by Su Rui's scanning vision.

But Suri started by talking about something else:

"Although I may seem easily swayed by your conversations and appear indifferent to many things, it's because I trust you and believe you won't lie to me. In reality, I'm very cautious and don't easily trust others, understand?"

After Suri spoke, both Ren Dong and Texas breathed a sigh of relief. They exchanged a glance and could see relief, as well as... a trace of guilt and shame, in each other's eyes.

Suri seemed a bit silly for saying those words, and Honeysuckle and Texas felt even more guilty because of their previous plans.

After all, Suri really does seem a bit silly, so there's no need to use Suri's guilt towards Ren Dong to keep him...

Thinking about this, Honeysuckle and Texas even felt guilty about their actions. Making this silly guy feel anxious and guilty just to keep Suri from leaving felt like something only a bad person would do.

However, before the two of them could get into the mood, Linglan couldn't help but laugh, breaking the somewhat heavy atmosphere.

Suri looked at the laughing little lily in her arms with considerable displeasure, and reached out to pinch her daughter's cheek:

"What are you laughing at? Am I wrong?"

"It's nothing. Dad is indeed very smart, but he's only smart when it comes to rational thinking."

Lily of the Valley smiled and reached out to rub Suri's fluffy ears, then comforted him like a child:

"Daddy is the best, the smartest, okay?"

"How can you comfort someone like that? Am I a child?"

Su Rui snorted, but did not pursue the matter further. Instead, she placed Linglan in her own seat and told the little girl to sit down by herself.

Texas's eyes flashed with amusement upon seeing this, but in order to prevent Suri from finding another excuse, she suppressed her laughter as much as possible, keeping her head down as if there was something very interesting on the table.

However, Suzuran's praise was also sincere. After all, with her scanning vision and super electronic computing ability, Su Rui could almost immediately find the answer to any problem involving logical thinking and mathematical calculation.

Therefore, he usually taught Xiao Linglan her homework. Even Ren Dong was a bit confused about some of the strange questions in the textbook, but for Su Rui, he only needed to glance at those questions to know the answers and solutions.

Soon, Ren Dong prepared lunch. Su Rui helped her set out the plates and utensils, and then the family of four sat down together to eat lunch.

Actually, Suri thought that her big, fluffy tail was very soft and strong, and it might be effective when carrying plates.

Suri even suggested that they could try putting the plate on his tail and having him carry it to the table by himself.

However, Honeysuckle flatly refused.

Honeysuckle's reason is simple: if her tail gets dirty, she or Texas will have to clean it, which is a hassle.

And what if Suri accidentally spills her lunch? We can't waste food.

So, under the guidance of Honeysuckle, Texas, and even Little Lily of the Valley, Suri gave up the idea.

Volume 1: 65 The Gift of Honeysuckle

The farewell came suddenly one morning, since the higher-level system had deleted the date of Suri's departure and had not displayed any information about when Suri left.

So, when Su Rui woke up one morning, he saw the prominent icon of the superior system in his field of vision:

When I saw the message, "You have about ten minutes to say goodbye to your family," I couldn't help but want to yell at them.

"You old man, do you just like doing things that are unpredictable...?"

However, considering that Honeysuckle was still sleeping beside her and Little Lily of the Valley was still in her arms, Su Rui resisted the urge to curse directly and muttered to herself.

However, even the slightest noise is enough to wake up the honeysuckle, which has become increasingly sensitive lately.

Su Rui muttered a few words in a very low voice, and Ren Dong, whose ears twitched, sat up abruptly with a jolt, staring straight at Su Rui.

"..." Su Rui looked at Ren Dong with bloodshot eyes. Seeing her nervous appearance, she subconsciously wanted to cover up the fact that she was about to leave.

However, in this situation, Suri, who had little experience, was unable to effectively conceal her emotions.

Moreover, Honeysuckle had already seen Suri's expression.

"...Shall we go outside to talk?"

Honeysuckle paused for a moment, then reached out and gently stroked Su Rui's cheek. She then gestured to him in the direction outside and reached out to help Su Rui, who was about to start moving, pick up Little Lily of the Valley, who was still clinging to Su Rui's big tail.

"Dad~"

Little Lily of the Valley, still half-asleep, instinctively wanted to hug Suri's big tail.

Honeysuckle stroked Lily of the Valley's little head and whispered soothingly in her ear, "Alright, little Lisa, go to sleep by yourself. Daddy and I are going out for a bit."

"Hmm~"

After giving a dazed reply, Linglan let go of her little hands that were hugging Suri's big tail, and then Rendong put her aside and covered her with a blanket.

After exchanging glances, Su Rui and Ren Dong understood each other's intentions, got dressed, and went outside the room.

Su Rui simply put on a coat. When he left, his current body would turn into a burst of light particles, leaving nothing behind. So putting on clothes would be useless; he would revert to his previous data-like appearance.

"Are you leaving?"

Honeysuckle leaned against the corridor door, reached out and pulled Su Rui into her arms, then gently rubbed Su Rui's furry ears.

"It's like this... The higher-level system says I only have about ten minutes left."

"Okay, don't be sad. Ten minutes is definitely not enough for us to climb the mountain again."

Despite the somewhat somber atmosphere, Ren Dong started telling jokes, but Su Rui wasn't in the mood to laugh. She just subconsciously hummed in response and then quietly stayed in Ren Dong's arms.

"What's going on..." Texas, who was next door, also noticed the slight noises coming from Suri and Honeysuckle outside and reached out to open the door.

Then she saw Suri and Rendong embracing each other, their atmosphere sorrowful.

Texas immediately realized that what Suri and Honeysuckle had said meant that it was time for Suri to leave.

Without saying much, Texas simply approached silently and reached out to hug Suri, who was in Honeysuckle's arms.

Although the presence of Honeysuckle prevented Texas from fighting Sue alone, the nine large tails behind Sue were enough to fill Texas's embrace.

"..."

Honeysuckle only glanced at Texas, and at that moment she was in no mood to care about who spent more time with Suri.

After all, neither of them has much time left.

However, in the quiet moment, Suri remembered something, lifted her head from Ren Dong's embrace, and whispered;

"By the way, Texas, you're not quite used to life in the East, are you?"

"...You noticed."

Texas had no desire to refute at this moment, but subconsciously hugged the big tail in her arms tighter, not wanting to let go of Suri.

"I mean, I've prepared a new life for you. Sicily has promised not to bother you, but her promise doesn't mean the families of Syracuse will completely obey her."

As Suri casually mentioned it, she sent some messages to Texas's phone. With a ringtone, Texas twitched her ears.

But she didn't want to be distracted by her phone; she just wanted to be with Su Rui and spend this last bit of time with her.

Suri didn't seem to mind, and simply explained;

"I contacted the Emperor, who is a penguin. Anyway, I made a deal with that guy to set up a company called Penguin Logistics in Lungmen. Life will be more exciting, and it shouldn't be a problem for you. By the way, I own 37% of Penguin Logistics, which is registered under your name, so you are a shareholder of Penguin Logistics."

"Ah."

Texas simply nodded, then lowered her head and buried her face in Suri's large tail, trying to hide her expression from him.

Texas stayed in the Eastern Kingdom because of Su Rui, a fact Su Rui had already realized after spending time with her. She wasn't used to life there, but having already experienced so much of the similar culture, she thought the more relaxed atmosphere of the Yan Kingdom would suit her better.

With this thought in mind, Su Rui raised her head again and turned her gaze to the honeysuckle in front of her.

"Is there anything you want to say to me?"

Honeysuckle lowered her head and nuzzled Suri's cheek. There was no jealousy or argument, because she was sure Suri would also prepare a gift for her.

"I'm still not quite sure which side you'll prefer."

Su Rui's tone was somewhat hesitant: "I've invested in quite a few companies online. In short, you can choose whichever country you want to live in. However, I think you've probably already adapted to Dongguo, right?"

"What if Texas and I go to Lungmen in Yan Kingdom together? We can wait for you there together, and Texas can also help me take care of Lisa."
