CHAPTER 834: CHAPTER 811: RETURN

Jiang Xiaoxiao saw the Song family off.

Song Qingyun patted Jiang Xiaoxiao’s hand.

"Child, don’t be afraid, you can come to us with any issue, speak up if you need anything. We are your uncle and aunt forever, and we’ll back you up for anything you need support with."

Song Qingyun offered Jiang Xiaoxiao reassurance, fearing the child might feel disheartened.

Jiang Xiaoxiao showed her first reluctant smile since the passing of the elderly couple, but she smiled nonetheless.

"Uncle, Aunt! I know you have good intentions and care for Moting and the children. Rest assured! I will live well and take good care of the children. I will also take good care of Moting, I won’t let the late grandparents worry."

The Song family departed.

Only then did Fan Xiuying and Jiang Laoshi arrive.

"Xiao Xiao, take a nap. You’ve exhausted yourself these past few days. Your father and I are here, so rest assured! Do whatever you need to do, your father and I have agreed that the three children will stay with us from now on, we will care for them. We are still healthy, and caring for three children is not a problem.

There is no problem, with your mom and dad here, everything can be resolved, all your mom and dad hope for is that you are well."

Fan Xiuying spoke with tears in her eyes.

How did her good daughter end up in such circumstances?

Her son-in-law became a vegetative patient.

Her young daughter has to care for five children and a husband on a sickbed, and now the only protection for Jiang Xiaoxiao, the elderly grandparents, are gone.

Fan Xiuying felt her daughter’s life was too hard.

Jiang Xiaoxiao leaned against her mother’s embrace, closing her eyes. The warmth in her mother’s arms provided a moment of rest, allowing her to rest properly before continuing her journey.

She didn’t have the permission to stop.

Those she loved were waiting for her to stand up again.

Jiang Xiaoxiao fell asleep.

Fan Xiuying covered her daughter with a towel blanket, looking at her face, thin from lack of meat, a sharp pain pierced through her heart.

She closed the door, quietly wiping her tears.

Jiang Laoshi sighed, "Stop crying, seeing you cry will make the child feel even worse. We have to help her well for her sake, she’s a doctor and has her own career to pursue, as parents we must resolve her worries.

I’ll go fetch the children, and from now on, you should go to the hospital during the day to care for Moting, don’t let Xiao Xiao worry too much, they all need her.

The child is in such a state! It pains my heart."

Jiang Laoshi turned to leave, his heart weighed down with sorrow.

Jiang Xiaoxiao had a long sleep.

The instant she awoke, her body and spirit felt renewed.

The aroma of her mother’s homemade noodles wafted in, as did the cheerful laughter of children from the yard.

"Grandma, the handmade noodles you make are so delicious. Lately we’ve been eating at the restaurant around the corner so much that I’m sick of it."

Song Ziwen’s voice was gentle and calm, much like his name suggested.

"Keep your voices down, your mom has finally gotten some sleep, let her rest well. If you like the food, you can come and eat at Grandma’s house every day. From now on when you come home from school, come to Grandma’s house, and Grandma and Grandpa will make you delicious food.

Your mom’s job isn’t easy, so you need to be good and listen, understood?"

Fan Xiuying gently advised the children.

Song Zijing’s voice was heard.

"Grandma, are Grandpa and Grandma really gone? Will they never come back? I miss them."

These words brought tears to Jiang Xiaoxiao’s eyes.

Jiang Xiaoxiao composed herself, realizing she was now an adult and the rock of this family, she couldn’t let her emotions cause the whole family to crumble.

She washed her face and went out to join her parents and children for a joyful meal, even though it was just simple noodles with gravy.

Despite that, the meal satisfied her deeply, as if the meal alone had lifted her spirits entirely.

Her vitality was restored.

Jiang Xiaoxiao revitalized herself, realizing she was not alone. Many relatives were supporting her.

Song Ziyuan had always been worried about her mother because she could tell that her mother had really been in a bad mood recently, extremely downcast, fearing her mother might have issues.

But now seeing her mom smiling and joking around with them, comforting the kids and her parents...

At this moment, Song Ziyuan knew her mom was back.

Secretly, she resolved to help her mom.

She had thought that only her own fighting spirit could help her mom find what she needed in that world.

But now she suddenly realized that it was due to her own indecision, negligence, and mistakes, that caused Grandpa and Grandma’s death. If she had diligently taken care of the family, providing mom peace of mind, would today’s situation have happened?

Song Ziyuan resolved to take good care of her family.

She believed Jiang Xiaoxiao could do even better.

The night was deep and quiet.

Song Ziyuan snuck into Jiang Xiaoxiao’s room.

The barefoot girl snuggled into Jiang Xiaoxiao’s embrace.

"What’s wrong? Can’t sleep?"

Holding Xiao Xiao, Jiang Xiaoxiao found it hard to believe this was the Great Demon King as described by Number Nine.

Song Ziyuan closed her eyes, "Mom, when you go there, you’ll need to start training. Those Crystal Stones can actually be refined to improve physical fitness, and Peach has a purifying effect on the crystal refining, making it twice as effective with half the effort. You must go to the Red Flame Battlefield, where there is an aura left behind by Number Ten.

Mom, you’re an S+ in physical fitness, and only by continuously strengthening through training can you survive there. I’ll help you, but it depends on your body. If your strength isn’t enough, I can’t do anything either. I’ll leave the strongest power in your body, and it won’t be triggered unless you’re at a life-threatening crisis level.

The previous Divine Sense has already been triggered. Mom, I’ll take care of my sister and grandma and grandpa. This time, I promise you, I’ll study hard, and when you come back, I’ll help Dad wake up."

Jiang Xiaoxiao held her child tightly, knowing Song Ziyuan was her treasure.

"I promise you too, I will return safely."

The sky brightened.

Jiang Xiaoxiao headed to the lab; she had Bai Yiyi move her private lab to the latest warehouse, where all her items needed to be stored.

She called Mrs. Wu, as some connections still required her help.

Three days later, the warehouse was gradually filled with various medical equipment and instruments.

The stock was amazing.

Even more puzzling were the vast number of medical knowledge books and textbooks.

Jiang Xiaoxiao secured the large door; aside from her, no one else had access, only the fingerprint system she used would open it.

Bai Yiyi didn’t know what she was planning, but Bai Yiyi had said she’d always be Jiang Xiaoxiao’s greatest support, no matter what.

Bai Yiyi was now the director of Ren’ai Hospital.

Also responsible for caring for the Jiang family and Jiang Xiaoxiao’s three children.

The Baozi and Tang Yuan brothers hadn’t returned yet.

Jiang Xiaoxiao returned to the world.

As soon as she got back, her room was in utter chaos.

Amidst the mess, she hurried outside.

It seemed like a battle had occurred here.

Jiang Xiaoxiao went down the corridor towards the Exchange Center’s clinic.

People along the way were in a hurry.

Upon reaching the clinic, she found a room full of people groaning in pain.
