The Unconventional Spectators at the Cemetery!!!

After discovering the issue with Zhang Ning, Huo Chenling quickly left the hospital with the two children. Two hours later, the Maybach stopped at a suburban cemetery. Zaizai had already fallen asleep in the car, so when they arrived, Huo Chenling carried her out, followed closely by Bai Mingxu.

The trio arrived at Zhang Jing's grave. Huo Chenling nodded at Bai Mingxu, who lightly acknowledged it before circling around the tombstone. Bai Mingxu ran his fingertips gently across his forehead, and once his Yin-Yang Eyes opened, even the usually composed Bai Mingxu was startled.

So many apparitions!

However, since it was daytime and the sun was shining brightly, these apparitions only dared to show their dark heads. Some couldn't withstand the intense sunlight and took off their eyes, placing them on the graves to look outside.

Bai Mingxu: "..."

The scene was truly...

If he hadn't grown up seeing apparitions, he might have fainted on the spot.

Seeing Bai Mingxu stumble, Huo Chenling hurried over and freed up one hand to support him. "Mingxu, what's wrong? Is it more difficult than you expected?"

Huo Chenling knew that Bai Mingxu was usually composed, as he could communicate between the Yin and Yang realms, so it was rare for anything to surprise him. Bai Mingxu's expression was somewhat indescribable.

"It's nothing, just... just that there are quite a lot of spectators. It's my first time encountering this situation, and it startled me. I apologize for embarrassing you, Uncle Huo," Bai Mingxu said.

Huo Chenling: "..."

He quickly looked around. This was a cemetery spanning thousands of acres, so these things were not uncommon.

"But it's daytime now, right?"

Bai Mingxu also wondered, "I don't know, but it seems like all those who can come out have come out, and they're all staring at us."

No!

Bai Mingxu carefully observed and realized that those apparitions were all staring at Zaizai in Huo Chenling's arms. Without hesitation, he hurriedly stood in front of Zaizai, shielding her.

"Uncle Huo, it seems like they're looking at Zaizai," Bai Mingxu said.

Huo Chenling's expression turned cold, his gaze suddenly sharp as his aura surged. Bai Mingxu was still young, and it wasn't suitable for him to use his Yin-Yang Eyes for an extended period, as it would deplete his energy and blood.

He glanced at Zhang Jing's tombstone once again to confirm that there was indeed nothing here before decisively closing his Yin-Yang Eyes. Because he closed his Yin-Yang Eyes, he didn't see the expressions of surprise that appeared on the apparitions' faces after they saw Zaizai, one by one.

The apparitions whose eyeballs were taken out and placed on the ground outside the graves were even more excited, their eyes rolling around uncontrollably. Most of them were regular residents of the underworld who came to visit their loved ones in the human realm during July. They were familiar with Zaizai.

Seeing the King of the Underworld's precious little daughter nestled in a human's arms, how could they not be excited?

So the apparitions began to chatter.

"Ah! That's Zaizai!"

"That's right! Hey, Big Brother Black said that our Boss is so busy that he doesn't even have time for his daughter, so he directly sent her to the human realm to find her foster father! Who would've thought it was true!"

“Big brother White also mentioned it! Hey, it seems like we can't rush anymore!"

"That's right! If we hurry to reincarnate, won't we still have to follow the normal procedures in the underworld? After all, the Boss has entrusted his daughter to someone else!"

"It's been so long since I've seen Zaizai! She seems even cuter now!"

"Look at her sleepy and bewildered appearance. I really want to give her a peck!”

"You go ahead and peck her! There's a Bai family member next to her who can communicate with the Yin and Yang. If you scare the Bai family member, aren't you afraid that the Bai family ancestors will fry you in oil seventy-eight times before you're even reincarnated?"

"Damn it! We are law-abiding citizens in the underworld. Even if it's a Bai family ancestor, they can't abuse their power for personal gain, right?"

"Hehehe! Why don't you rush out now and try to frighten them with your miserable death appearance?"

"Oh no! The sun is so bright, it's making my head spin. I'm going back to my box to sleep!"

...

Zaizai heard familiar voices, but she was too exhausted and didn't have the energy to greet them. So she nestled comfortably in her brother Mingxu's arms and continued to sleep soundly.

After Bai Mingxu confirmed the situation, he shook his head at Huo Chenling. "Uncle Huo, I didn't see Aunt Zhang."

Huo Chenling wasn't surprised. "Let's talk about it when we get back."

"Okay."

As Huo Chenling prepared to take Zaizai, Bai Mingxu smiled when he saw her sleeping so peacefully. "Uncle Huo, let me carry her. Zaizai isn't heavy."

Huo Chenling had reservations, after all, he couldn't see anything. If something unexpected happened that couldn't be explained by science, Bai Mingxu was clearly the most capable person to protect Zaizai.

"You've worked hard," Huo Chenling said.

Bai Mingxu smiled and shook his head. "It's no trouble. I also really like Zaizai."

Huo Chenling reminded him, "Zaizai also has Yin-Yang Eyes."

Bai Mingxu was stunned, "Huh?"

Huo Chenling's expression turned cold, "She also noticed something unusual in the hospital room."

Bai Mingxu furrowed his brows and contemplated for a while before slowly speaking, "Uncle Huo, Zaizai is still too young. Seeing those things frequently would have a significant psychological impact on her. How about when I go back, I ask my grandfather to find a way to temporarily seal her Yin-Yang Eyes?"

Huo Chenling smiled faintly and gently patted his shoulder, "Even if you didn't mention it, I was already planning to go to the Bai family later and ask Uncle Bai for help."

The two of them talked for a while and then, with great tacit understanding, remained silent as they reached the entrance of the cemetery.

Before leaving, Bai Mingxu was worried that Huo Chenling had been carrying Zaizai the whole time and might be tired. He couldn't help but ask with a smile, "Uncle Huo, would you like me to help carry Zaizai?"

Huo Chenling gently weighed the sleeping Zaizai in his arms and spoke softly, "No need, Uncle can handle it."

Bai Mingxu felt a little disappointed, but since it wasn't his own "Milky Dumpling," he didn't say much.

The trio spent another two hours returning from the cemetery. Huo Chenling didn't plan to go to the Bai family for dinner, so before heading there, he took the two children to a restaurant.

Perhaps it was because he felt there was a reason behind the strange feeling in his heart, or perhaps it was because he would soon uncover Zhang Jing's true identity and provide an explanation to his deceased wife, or maybe it was because he now had a well-behaved and adorable "Milky Dumpling" by his side. Huo Chenling's face was gentle, and he no longer appeared as cold and indifferent as before.

It was already dark outside.

Although Zaizai was still a little sleepy, she was awakened by her mortal foster father for dinner.

When they sat down, Huo Chenling suddenly realized a problem. "Zaizai, I'm sorry, Dad forgot to feed you during the day."

Bai Mingxu was taken aback, "Uncle Huo means... you and Zaizai didn't eat all day?"

It was the first time in Huo Chenling's life, as the head of the First Family, that he felt embarrassed. He was often too busy to eat or didn't have time for it. With his three sons being taken care of by his wife and the butler in the past, he had no worries about their daily lives, and he temporarily forgot that his wife had mentioned that children should eat small meals frequently.

Zaizai opened her tender little mouth and let out a big yawn. She looked as if she hadn't slept well and was very sleepy.

Huo Chenling's heart melted at her "I'm so sleepy, so tired" appearance.

And when Zaizai spoke, her milk-humming voice made Huo Chenling feel ashamed.

"Dad, it's okay. Zaizai usually sleeps during the day and starts eating and playing at night. Zaizai isn't hungry during the day."

She had also eaten quite a few snacks and was quite full.

Huo Chenling remembered what Song Qing had said about Zaizai's reversed day and night schedule.

This was absolutely not acceptable.

After all, it was unhealthy.

Bai Mingxu spoke before him, "Zaizai, if you play during the day and sleep at night, you'll grow taller. Otherwise, you might become a little shorty."

Zaizai didn't want to become a shorty. She was startled by his words, waking up from her drowsiness. Her big, dark eyes widened, and her cheeks puffed up as she straightened her small chest, her voice chirping.

"...Then Zaizai will play during the day and sleep at night! Zaizai doesn't want to be a shorty. Zaizai wants to grow tall!"

She looked at Huo Chenling, quickly examining him.

"Zaizai wants to be as tall as Dad!"

Huo Chenling and Bai Mingxu couldn't help but laugh at Zaizai's innocent words and adorable expression.

And when Bai Mingxu noticed Huo Chenling's smile, he could hardly believe his eyes.

If Brother Sijin, Sijue and Sichen were to see this, they would probably suspect if this person was their real father, right?
