Chapter 80 Wife, I just happen to have experience in taking care of little phoenix babies

. Immediately afterwards, Shang Youqing returned to the car and picked up the little cub sleeping in the back seat with one hand, then pulled the suitcase from the back compartment and walked to the black SUV in front. She

opened the back door and got in.

Without waiting for the man in the driver's seat to react, she gave the order, "Go."

The next second, the SUV sped away in a cloud of dust.

"If you dare to let those two cars behind catch up, you'll be dead."

Shang Youqing said this slowly, adjusted the back seat to a comfortable angle, held the little cub in her arms, relaxed, closed her eyes, and finally could sleep peacefully for a while.

Maybe Shang Youqing was a little tired from traveling for two consecutive days. When she woke up, Shang Youqing subconsciously hugged her tightly in his arms, but hugged nothing.

He suddenly opened his eyes, and saw the dim lights on in the car, but he was the only one in the car. The person in front and Shang You were gone...

Shang Youqing's heart tightened, and he was about to get out of the car. However, as soon as his hand was on the door handle, he heard vague conversations coming from the back and side of the car.

Shang Youqing looked out the window following the sound.

It was completely dark, the valley was quiet and empty, and the taillights illuminated the back.

On an empty plain, Shang You squatted on the ground, holding a flashlight in her small hand and shining it to the side, while the adult she was shining the light on, He Cong, was setting up a tent seriously and attentively.

Shang You was wrapped in a fluffy coat and had a hood on his head. His big eyes looked curiously at He Cong who was fixing the ground pegs, and he couldn't help asking, "What is this?"

"Ground pegs, used to fix the tent."

"Oh." Shang You nodded his little head, and raised the flashlight a little higher to follow He Cong's movements. His amber-like eyes were ignorant and bright, and told him, "I haven't lived in... a tent with my mother yet." He

Cong paused for half a second, and was about to say something when he suddenly heard the sound of the car door in front opening. He raised his eyes and saw Shang Youqing getting out of the car and walking towards them.

He Cong stared at her for a moment, then took his time to look away. While smoothing out the gap in the tent, he asked casually, "There's food in the car. Are you hungry?"

Shang Youqing said, "No," and sat down next to Shang You's cushion with legs bent. He reached out and touched Shang You's forehead and asked, "Baby, are you still shedding feathers?"

Shang You took out a small ball of fur from her pocket, spread out her little hands and said helplessly, "Mom, I've lost a lot."

The wind in the valley was very strong at night. A strong gust of wind blew over, blowing away the down feathers next to the little guy's hands.

Shang Youqing carried Shang You in her arms, knowing that Shang You was likely to shed her tail for the second time. Just as she was thinking about it, He Cong's voice suddenly came from beside her, "Is Shang You about to shed her tail?"

Shang Youqing was stunned. Before she could answer, He Cong said, "If we set out at dawn tomorrow morning, it will take two and a half hours to drive to the nearest Qionglu Village, or you can just turn around and go back--"

"No need to turn around." Shang Youqing lowered his head and rubbed Shang You's slightly hot head, "Let's drive directly to the nearest village in front after dawn."

He Cong looked at her, then at little Shang You who was lying obediently in her arms, and after a long while he said, "Okay."

He went back to the car to get a sleeping bag and some useful things, and placed them neatly in the tent where they could be reached. He came out and explained everything he needed to say to her.

Shang Youqing was holding the little cub, and before he finished speaking, he couldn't help but look up: "If you say a few more words, Youyou will wake up."

He Cong closed his mouth with a calm face after hearing this.

Shang Youqing carried Shang You into the warm and cozy tent, and lay down to sleep with Shang You for a while.

Although He Cong said before she entered the tent that he would go back to the car to rest, Shang Youqing had a hunch that he would not be so honest. After Shang You fell asleep, he gently opened the tent curtain and glanced outside. Sure enough -

in the dim light of the fire, someone was silently guarding outside the tent.

He Cong looked over when he heard the sound of the tent being opened, and frowned.

Shang Youqing sat down next to him, with his hands behind his back, slightly raised his head and looked at the stars in the night sky above his head. He was quiet for a moment before he spoke softly.

"Tell me, what did Mu Weiting tell you, and how did he trick you into coming here?"

He Cong stared down at her. "Since you think he's deceiving me, then why did you come here?"

"I'm here for a reason. There's no point in you following me."

Shang Youqing paused, turned, and met his gaze. She lowered her voice even more, "He Cong, send Youyou and me to Qionglu Village tomorrow, and then you can go back."

He Cong's eyes were as deep and silent as the endless, silent night. He gazed at her with a deep, almost gravitational pull that seemed to draw her in.

Shang Youqing's expression remained impassive, but even after she finished speaking, a dull feeling welled up in her chest.

She thought He Cong was about to prepare another barrage of sneers before parting ways with her.

That was exactly what she intended.

However, after a long moment, as if finally simmering, He Cong leaned closer, speaking softly once more.

"Wife."

"...?"

Shang Youqing's fingers against her side trembled slightly. She was clearly surprised that he had been brewing this for so long, and she immediately turned her head away, as if she couldn't bear it.

However, He Cong didn't give her this chance. The next second, he reached out and turned her face towards him, biting the corner of her soft, slightly cool lips, sucking gently.

Noticing that Shang Youqing was trying to lean back, He Cong clasped his palm on the back of her thin neck, stroking her lips seductively and asking, "Do you still remember what I said that night?"

Shang Youqing's breathing was a little disordered by the kiss, and she was afraid of waking up the cub in the tent, so she could only restrain her breathing, staring at him secretly and whispered, "You said so much nonsense that night, how would I know which one you were talking about?"

He Cong sucked her lower lip again, and reminded her patiently, "It was me who said I wanted to raise Shang You with you."

Shang Youqing was still a little confused, and then saw He Cong let go of her slightly, looking at her calmly and said, "Wife, isn't it a coincidence that I just happen to have experience in taking care of a little phoenix baby that has shed its tail."

Shang Youqing's mouth twitched slightly: "...So?"

"So," He Cong touched her head calmly, "Don't worry, wife, I have experience this time, and I won't be in a rush."

"I will prove to my wife that what I said before, that I can not only raise our son well, but also raise Youyou as our daughter, is not empty talk."
