The closet door opened, and looking at the clothes inside, she was a bit bewildered.
She wasn't sure if it was her imagination, but she felt... were these clothes a bit ugly?
Having lived in the interstellar era for so long, she had bought quite a few clothes for the children, especially when they were young. She had bought them many adorable and beautiful outfits. Why were hers...
Lu Wanqing remembered that her own clothes hadn't been ugly when she was little, so why did they all look so hideous now?
"Qingqing, haven't you picked out your clothes yet?" Jiang Yu came to see her daughter after changing, and saw her precious daughter staring blankly at a closet full of clothes.
Lu Wanqing shook her head, but only for a moment. She quickly made up her mind, took out a green dress from the closet, and said, "I'll wear this."
Green?
Jiang Yu was slightly surprised. Didn't her precious daughter used to like yellow the most? Why did she like green more today?
"Okay, green it is. Mom will help you change!" Jiang Yu quickly smiled. She reached out and took out the green dress, then prepared to help Lu Wanqing change.
Lu Wanqing froze slightly and quickly said, "Mom, I can do it myself!"
Although her body was that of a child, her soul was that of an adult. Having her mother help her change felt a bit strange.
"But there's no time. If we don't hurry, Dad and the others will have to wait a long time," Jiang Yu reminded her.
Lu Wanqing: "!!!"
"Then Mom, help me change!" The next moment, Lu Wanqing said anxiously.
She didn't want to wait another second. She wanted to see her third brother quickly. She wanted to know... if her third brother had traveled back.
Seeing her precious daughter compromise in an instant, Jiang Yu was even more surprised. Her daughter used to be very stubborn; once she decided on something, she wouldn't easily change her mind no matter what others said.
Could it be that her husband had been away for too long, and her daughter missed her dad?
Jiang Yu thought this was likely, and her heart couldn't help but love her daughter more. Indeed, sons and daughters were different. Sons were brats, while daughters were considerate little marshmallows. If their parents were away from home for a slightly longer time, she would miss them!
As Jiang Yu thought this, her actions didn't slow down. Holding the clothes, she quickly began to help Lu Wanqing change.
The tiny Lu Wanqing was soon dressed in a beautiful princess dress. Although the dress was green, her skin was fair and tender, making her look like a little elf from the forest, even more adorable.
"I still need to tie my hair," Lu Wanqing couldn't help but remind her after her clothes were changed.
Jiang Yu was slightly stunned but quickly smiled. She agreed, "Okay, I'll tie your hair."
Jiang Yu carried her daughter to the dressing table, picked up a small comb, and carefully began to comb her daughter's hair.
With her hair tied up, the tiny Lu Wanqing became super cute and super beautiful!
"Mom, let's go," Lu Wanqing said anxiously. However, due to her small body, her voice was also sweet and milky, incredibly charming.
"Let's go!" Jiang Yu said with a smile.
The next moment, mother and daughter walked outside. They exited the door, and the driver was already waiting by the entrance in the car.
Lu Wanqing quickly got into the car.
Jiang Yu followed closely behind.
They soon arrived at the station. Lu Wanqing eagerly ran ahead, and Jiang Yu anxiously chased after her, "Qingqing, don't run around, be careful not to get lost!"
Lu Wanqing quickly spotted her father and the short boy beside him. It was her third brother!
Lu Wanqing's eyes lit up with excitement, and she immediately ran over.
"Qingqing!" Lu Yizhi was also overjoyed to see his daughter approaching. He immediately squatted down, spread his arms, and prepared to catch his daughter running towards him.
However, Lu Wanqing didn't run to her father. Instead, she stopped in front of him, her eyes wide open, curiously looking at her third brother.
She hadn't seen her third brother as a child for a long time. Her third brother... looked so cute when he was little!
But soon, Lu Wanqing discovered something was wrong. Her third brother... was his gaze towards her a bit strange?
Little Lu Yang, or rather, little Song Yang, felt inexplicably scared when the beautiful little sister kept staring at him. He quietly hid behind Uncle Lu.
Lu Wanqing's heart sank. Tears suddenly fell. Her third brother... hadn't he traveled back?
Seeing her third brother about to avoid her, she anxiously went towards him.
Little Song Yang panicked and immediately ran to the other side, looking at this sister with fear.
"Qingqing!" Jiang Yu also caught up, breathing heavily from running. Her daughter had run too fast, and she couldn't keep up.
Lu Yizhi also panicked. His precious daughter was crying, so why was she suddenly crying?
The next moment, Lu Yizhi quickly reached out, pulled his daughter into his arms, and wiped her tears with his rough hands.
"Qingqing, why are you crying?"
"Don't be scared, Daddy's back!"
Lu Yizhi comforted Lu Wanqing with some helplessness.
Lu Wanqing, however, couldn't control herself. Tears fell one by one. Her gaze, passing over her father, kept looking at her third brother.
Her third brother's spiritual body was already very weak. She just wanted to take a gamble. She thought...
She believed there was a one-in-ten-thousand chance that her third brother might return, and they could go home together, back to the ancient Earth era of their memories.
But why did only she return?
Her third brother... had he truly left?
Jiang Yu also saw her daughter crying, and moreover, crying while looking at the child her husband brought back. She looked utterly confused.
"Qingqing, what... what's wrong?" Jiang Yu also squatted down and asked her daughter very carefully.
Jiang Yu was actually a bit worried. Was Qingqing unhappy because her husband brought another child home?
She had heard that children could be very possessive and didn't like others snatching their parents away.
But...
Jiang Yu quickly thought of Song Yang's background. She couldn't refuse to adopt this child.
Song Yang's parents were heroes in the anti-drug campaign, but those two sacrificed themselves not long ago due to an accident that exposed their identities.
Little Song Yang, who was only five years old, would be in mortal danger if his identity were exposed.
Their quietly adopting this child and changing his name and surname was the best solution.
Lu Wanqing only cried for a while. She quickly got out of her father's embrace and walked up to her little third brother.
"Little brother, hello, my name is Lu Wanqing. You can call me Qingqing," Lu Wanqing said, extending her hand to the little third brother and speaking cautiously.
Lu Yizhi: "..."
Jiang Yu: "..."
The two adults were stunned, looking at their precious daughter strangely.
Little Song Yang was also a bit scared. Looking at the little sister in front of him, he was a bit helpless.
"I... my name is Song..."
"Lu Yang," Lu Yizhi suddenly interjected, cutting off little Song Yang's words.
Lu Yizhi squatted down, holding little Song Yang in one arm and little Lu Wanqing in the other. He introduced the two children in a gentle voice.
"Lu Yang, from now on, your name will be Lu Yang. You are the son of Lu Yizhi, my third child with Jiang Yu. You got lost due to an accident a few years ago and were just found a few days ago," Lu Yizhi said seriously, looking at little Song Yang.
"She is Lu Wanqing, your sister, ranking fourth in the family. You can call her Qingqing from now on," Lu Yizhi added.
