Sneaking a Peek at Her Hunky Husband

When Chen Lin, usually the most calm and rational person, saw the lush wheat fields in the valley that seemed to exist only in dreams, his eyes widened in astonishment.

If the golden wheat fields offered them an unparalleled visual feast, then the rich aroma of wheat floating in the air awakened their dormant appetites.

They had never smelled wheat so fragrant before; it smelled so good that they could almost see themselves making all sorts of delicious food from the flour ground from this wheat and enjoying it immensely.

The group of people swallowed nervously, utterly astonished. The aroma was so enchanting, it was almost hallucinating them.

As they walked along the road to the end, the group arrived at the lawn under the trees. Tao Qiu was standing there with her three children, and all eyes were on them.

Tao Qiu hadn't expected them to be the ones coming. She had only intended to greet the wheat harvesters politely and then take her children back to the cave.

If it's someone you know, then there's no need to be so formal.

The teammates had only seen Tao Qiu and the kids in human form on their phones, but seeing them in person still gave them quite a shock.

That terrifying giant Snow Bird, its human form was so handsome! It was even more beautiful than the stars in TV dramas, its whole body seemed to be glowing, beautiful and noble.

Needless to say, the three children who inherited all the best features of Lou Yu and Tao Qiu are as cute as little dolls from a comic book. Even celestial children couldn't compare. At such a young age, it's already clear that they will grow up to be exceptionally beautiful.

Lou Yu, being someone familiar to both parties, took the initiative to introduce them.

"These are my teammates: Chen Lin, Liu Qi'an, John, and Huo Lan."

"These are my loved ones and children: Tao Qiu, Tao Yuan, Tao Xue, and Tao Mo."

Tao Qiu smiled and nodded to them, "Hello."

"Hello, hello." The four of them smiled somewhat stiffly, their fear of the Snow Bird making them a little reserved.

Tao Qiu didn't mind; they'd get used to it eventually.

As the only female in the team, Huo Lan immediately attracted the attention of the Second Cub and Third Cub when she appeared.

The reason is simple: Lou Yu said that their beautiful bedroom was decorated by Huo Lan, and that the whole process was done with great care.

The Second Cub Third Cub ran up to Huo Lan, looking up at him with their eyes filled with joy.

The Second Cub asked softly, "Are you Aunt Huo Lan?"

Huo Lan was surprised that the children would come to her. She instinctively crouched down to be at eye level with them before nodding and saying, "Yes, I'm Huo Lan."

The two little girls then laughed.

Third Cub: "Lou Yu's dad showed us pictures of the room. Aunt Huo Lan decorated it so beautifully! My sister and I both love it."

"Really?" Huo Lan was overjoyed. "It's wonderful that you like it! I was quite worried before, afraid that our tastes wouldn't be the same."

"Now you can rest assured, Auntie?" Third Cub's laughter was as clear as a silver bell. "Auntie, do you like fruit? We'd like to treat you to some fruit to thank you for helping us decorate the room."

"You're already asking for a thank-you gift so soon?" Huo Lan was a little taken aback, and instinctively replied, "I really like fruit."

"That's great! We have lots of fruit, we'll share it all with you."

After Second Cub finished speaking, he turned to look at Tao Qiu without saying a word, but his meaning was self-evident.

Tao Qiu said softly, "You can decide for yourselves what your fruit is."

"Thank you, Daddy!" Second Cub happily agreed, pulling Huo Lan to sit down by the rock and saying, "Aunt Huo Lan, wait for us, we'll go get you some fruit now."

After saying that, the two sisters held hands and ran towards the cave entrance.

They took off their coats, revealing little sweaters underneath. Two slits were cut in the back of the sweaters, just enough for the chicks to stick their wings out.

This method is crude, but it does work.

Seeing two little babies grow wings and actually fly? The teammates felt like they were dreaming.

The group that came were Lou Yu's teammates, who were like family to him. As Lou Yu's partner, Tao Qiu naturally couldn't treat them like ordinary guests.

Since the cave was the most private place and it wasn't convenient to bring people up, Tao Qiu asked Lou Yu to entertain them first, while she went up into the cave to get some fruit.

Fortunately, after Lou Yu arrived, the family of five often went to the bottom of the valley to play. They placed a stone table and benches under the trees. They weren't as proper as tables and chairs, but they could still be used to rest and place things.

"They're all family," Lou Yu said without any formalities. "Don't stand there, sit down and rest for a while. We can get back to work after we finish eating the fruit. Tao Qiu grew the fruit herself; you won't be disappointed."

Upon hearing this, the teammates also became excited. They had previously heard Lou Yu say that the crops Snow Bird grew using her special ability tasted exceptional, and now that they had smelled the aroma of wheat, they were completely convinced of this claim.

The children's toys were on the table, meant to be used to entertain guests. The Eldest Cub ran over and grabbed the toys.

Seeing this, Chen Lin quickly said, "It's fine to leave it there."

The Eldest Cub shook his head. "We need to put it back."

As soon as he finished speaking, he flew towards the cave.

Several teammates had already become numb and calmly sat down on the rocks.

Over the years, they've been on missions and in all sorts of outdoor environments. It's just a stone table and chairs; why would they complain about how simple it is?

Lou Yu sat down and chatted with his teammates about what had happened at the base during his week-long absence.

Inside the cave, Tao Qiu washed several kinds of fruit and packed them into different food containers.

The portion that the Second Cub and Third Cub gave to Huo Lan was washed by themselves, and it was mostly filled with strawberries and berries, which they thought tasted the best of all.

The four of them carried all the food boxes downstairs together. When Lou Yu saw them coming down, he got up and went over to take a few of the food boxes.

Before they even got close, Chen Lin and the others could smell the various tempting fruit aromas, and once again, they couldn't help but swallow hard.

"Auntie." The Second Cub and Third Cub ran ahead, carrying the food box, and rushed into Huo Lan's arms, handing the food box to her.

Second Cub said excitedly, "This is a gift from my sister and me for Auntie. We hope Auntie likes it."

Huo Lan looked at the neatly arranged strawberries and red berries in the food box, his eyes and brows beaming with joy. Needless to say, his delight was evident.

"Thank you Xuexue, thank you, Yuanyuan. I really like this gift."

The Third Cub picked up a strawberry and fed it to Huo Lan's lips, "Auntie, you have to try this! This strawberry is my favorite, it's super delicious!"

Huo Lan obediently opened her mouth and bit into the strawberry, though she had actually been craving it for a long time.

When Huo Lan smelled the strawberry aroma, she anticipated it would taste several times better than the strawberries she had eaten before, but after actually tasting them, she felt she hadn't prepared enough.

As the strawberry flesh was crushed by his teeth, an aroma even stronger than the smell exploded in his mouth, rushing straight to his brain. Combined with the sweet juice and delicate flesh, Huo Lan was completely out of it for a few seconds.

She completely forgot where she was; as she chewed, only one thought occupied her mind.

--It's so delicious!!!

The other three hadn't started eating yet, but seeing Huo Lan's reaction, they knew the fruit would taste even better than they expected.

"Don't be shy, help yourselves," Tao Qiu said, trying to make them feel comfortable.

The three thanked each other and, without further ado, each took their favorite fruit and began to eat heartily.

Then, they became just like Huo Lan.

The Eldest Cub sat on Tao Qiu's lap, watching them being conquered by the fruit, and proudly raised the corners of his lips.

It took them about two or three minutes to snap out of their dreamlike state.

Huo Lan's eyes lit up as he said to his Third Cub Second Cub, "These are the best strawberries I've ever eaten! Your dad is amazing!"

Chapter 90 Peeping at My Strong Husband

The Second Cub chuckled, hands on his hips with pride. "Yes, yes, my dad is the most awesome in the world!"

Huo Lan was amused by her playful appearance and couldn't help but ask, "May I touch your face?"

"Okay." The Second Cub stretched his face toward Huo Lan. "Hello Auntie, I'm willing? Let Auntie touch me, but don't be too rough, it will hurt."

"I won't use force," Huo Lan assured him, his right hand stroking the Second Cub's chubby little belly, which felt like steamed egg, smooth and tender.

"Your face is so soft," Huo Lan complimented.

"Hehe, Auntie's hands are warm too, baby likes them."

She laughed, and Huo Lan laughed along with her.

The Third Cub also stepped forward and said, "Auntie, you can touch my face too."

"Really? Thank you Yuanyuan." Huo Lan was pleasantly surprised, and gently cupped Third Cub's cheeks in her hands, rubbing her face lightly with her fingertips.

Just as Huo Lan was about to withdraw her hand, the Third Cub turned around and pressed themselves against her palm, rubbing against her from side to side, being incredibly well-behaved.

Huo Lan clutched his chest, feeling his heart melt at the sight of such cuteness.

"Oh my, I wish you two were my daughters." Huo Lan was so charmed that he even forgot to eat his fruit.

She mustered her courage and boldly looked at Lou Yu. Before she could speak, Lou Yu said, "Don't even think about it. Impossible. You want to live on your own?"

Huo Lan, having failed in his initial attempt, took a step back. "... How about we find a godmother?"

Lou Yu looked at Tao Qiu, implying that he should let Tao Qiu make the decision.

Tao Qiu smiled warmly, "If the two children are willing, then that's fine."

You can tell from the way the room was decorated that Huo Lan genuinely loves children; he's not just putting on an act or being a hypocrite.

Huo Lan looked expectantly at the Second Cub and Third Cub. The Second Cub was a little confused, "What is a godmother?"

Huo Lan explained, "You should all know what a mother is, right?"

The children nodded, Huo Lan continued, "Godmother means that even though we're not related by blood, as long as both sides are willing, you can call me godmother and treat me like your mother. I will also take care of you as if you were my own daughters."
