The next day.
The family of three, who had already prepared to leave, went door to door to inform everyone of their departure.
They might have to return to this home in the future, so they needed to let people know.
Aunt Zhang and the others understood their departure. Ever since Ye Longlin's identity was revealed, they had known that they would eventually leave. It was just that the day of their departure had arrived so quickly.
Before leaving, they still had to visit Old Lin's house.
Last night, Mu Hanqi had also told him that Old Lin had said two years ago that he would definitely return in two years. Mu Hanqi had suddenly remembered this.
Old Lin, to some extent, possessed some metaphysical abilities.
"Ready to go?"
Old Lin turned to look at Ye Longlin, but his hands did not stop working; he was still crafting paper figures.
Old Dong had left, and after finishing these figures, they had to be taken to the ancestral graves.
Ye Longlin nodded, "There are some things I need to settle, and some people's grudges should be avenged. After dragging this on for two years, I can't let them just watch me like this, can I?"
Old Lin nodded and didn't say much.
"When you come to the capital, I'll treat you to a drink."
Old Lin nodded, grinned, and said, "Soon. After I finish what I'm doing, I'll head to the capital. I'll find you then."
"The Commander's Mansion. Just come directly there."
The Commander's Mansion, although uninhabited for the past two years, was regularly cleaned by Xuanwu's personnel to ensure there was no dust. Ye Longlin could move in anytime he returned.
Flying from Jiangnan to the capital only took about two hours. Including the waiting time for the flight, it took at most three hours in total.
"Daddy, look! Outside there are cotton candies, so many cotton candies!"
On the plane, the little one looked at the clouds outside. Her small mind couldn't find the right words, so only cotton candy could describe them.
Ye Longlin tickled her nose and explained, "This is called clouds, not cotton candy. Cotton candy is edible, but clouds are not."
The little one tilted her head, seemingly unable to understand why something that looked exactly like cotton candy couldn't be eaten.
Ye Longlin held her in his arms. He had downloaded several cartoons last night, which came in handy now. He placed them on the tray table in front, put on headphones, and the little one watched obediently.
She was quiet and well-behaved, which made the flight attendant very fond of her. When they disembarked, she even gave her a small airplane model.
Upon arriving at the capital airport, vehicles from the Dragon Pavilion were already waiting.
"Boss!"
"Boss!"
"Boss!"
Yuan Gang, Xuan Niao, and Xuan Wu all appeared there. Armed soldiers guarded the convoy.
Ye Longlin nodded and carefully observed Xuan Wu. "Not bad. You've matured a lot in these two years."
Xuan Wu's face was glum. "Boss, please stop teasing me. I finally understand how difficult it is to manage such a large operation. It's too hard. In the future, I'd rather stay in my position as one of the Four Great Vajras. That would be much better, without having to worry about all these things."
"Wow, is this the little princess? So cute. Little princess, let me pet you."
"Sister-in-law, little princess, your genes and the boss's genes are indeed powerful. She's too cute, too adorable. This is another series that makes me want to have a daughter."
Upon seeing Ye Churan, the three of them immediately took a liking to her. Her round little face, her eyes that resembled Ye Longlin's, yet carried the refined demeanor of Mu Hanqi.
She was clearly a beautiful embryo!
Seeing so many people, Ye Churan was a little scared and hid behind Mu Hanqi's legs, clutching her pants tightly. However, she was also very curious, peeking out with half of her head to observe them.
"Yiyi, come here."
Ye Longlin squatted down and extended his hand. Ye Churan stumbled over and called out in her milky voice, "Daddy."
"This is Uncle Yuan."
"This is Sister Mo, and this is Uncle Mo."
Ye Churan obediently greeted them, "Uncle Yuan, Sister Mo, Uncle Mo."
The three were overjoyed, and the surrounding Dragon Pavilion soldiers looked over. Upon seeing Ye Churan, excitement flickered in their eyes.
Their Dragon Pavilion had a little princess too!
"Daddy, I'm hungry."
After speaking, the little girl pouted and said to Ye Longlin, looking wronged.
Ye Longlin helplessly touched her forehead with his own and said dotingly, "Then what does little princess want to eat? Daddy will take you to eat."
The little girl's eyes lit up. She began to list snacks by counting her fingers. Before she could finish, she received a glare from Mu Hanqi, and the little girl immediately became unhappy.
Ye Longlin chuckled wryly. "Alright, Daddy will take you to buy them later. But those are snacks, Yiyi, you can't eat too many. You have to eat your meal first."
"Mmm, Daddy is the best to Yiyi."
Mu Hanqi said exasperatedly, "Just keep spoiling her, and she'll be spoiled rotten eventually."
Ye Longlin smiled dismissively. "If she gets spoiled, so be it. Yiyi is Daddy's little darling. Even if she's spoiled, it's what I want. Besides, aren't you spoiled by me too?"
Mu Hanqi rolled her eyes and got into the car.
The three of them watched from the side, covering their mouths and smiling without speaking.
Xuan Wu, in particular, vowed to himself that he would also have such a well-behaved little girl. It was said that daughters were like a father's little padded jacket, and now he saw that the ancients were not deceiving him!
The boss's daughter was so cute. If he had one soon, and if it was a girl, they could be playmates. If it was a boy, they could be childhood sweethearts, and perhaps even form a family alliance.
Xuan Wu's little plan was running perfectly in his mind.
The convoy drove directly out of the airport. The three did not return to the Dragon Pavilion but instead found a hotel to have a meal.
They had all heard the little girl say she was hungry.
In the car, the little girl was leaning against the window, her little hands on the door panel, her small eyes looking at the most prosperous city in Great Xia with everything appearing novel.
"Mama, Mama, what is that?"
"That's the Bird's Nest, it's a stadium."
"Daddy, Daddy, what is that?"
"That's the Honor City Tower."
All the way, the little girl chattered, asking questions. When she encountered something unknown, she would turn to ask her parents. In her small world, her parents were like superheroes, omniscient and omnipotent. Whatever she asked, they knew the answer.
At this stage of a child's life, they are the child's entire world.
The little girl's eyes were filled with curiosity and questions. Perhaps there were many questions in her little head, but she didn't ask them all.
"Yiyi, what do you want to eat? Shall we ask Uncle to take us?"
