Being a stranger in a foreign land, I miss my family all the more during every festive occasion.
If you have never been away from your family, you will never have this feeling. Undoubtedly, Lan Xiao also misses home! He misses his wife and children deeply.
"Chengcheng. Time is limited, just listen to me." Fortunately, Lan Xiao was still very rational and spoke quickly.
Nan Cheng quickly stopped crying and said, "You speak."
Lan Xiao said, "I'm fine, don't worry. Everything is going well here. We really discovered another planet. And from the preliminary observations and species inspections, this planet is even better than the two administrative planets Tiandou and Tianluo. It is larger in size and has abundant resources. It is very suitable for us humans to live in. Even the oxygen content and atmospheric pressure are almost the same as the mother planet. We have just completed a series of experiments and sampling. We will return soon. The return journey may take one and a half months. So, in another month and a half, when Xuanyu starts school, I should be able to get home. Although it took a little longer this time, it was still smooth. Who knows, our federation may very likely have a brand new administrative planet. So, don't worry. I'll be back soon. Tell Xuanyu that Dad misses him very much."
"Dad, I'm here." Lan Xuanyu called out hurriedly.
Nan Chengyang said angrily: "What about me?"
Lan Xiao smiled, "Of course I did. Very much."
Nan Cheng blushed, "That's about right. But... it'll take another month and a half!"
Lan Xiao sighed softly, "There is no way to set a specific time for interstellar travel. Especially for interstellar exploration. After I came out, I realized that our situation was already going very smoothly. Well, I can't say any more. I have to give my colleagues some time. That's it, wait until I come back. Love you."
The call was disconnected. Nan Cheng was stunned for a moment, then gnashed his teeth. But Lan Xuanyu beside him clearly noticed that Nan Cheng's eyes lit up, no longer absent-minded.
Suddenly, Nan Cheng bent down, held Lan Xuanyu's pink cheeks with both hands, and kissed him three times, "Pop, Pop, Pop," then rushed out happily, "Mom is going to cook for you!"
Lan Xuanyu wiped the saliva from his face with some disgust, "It's all wet from kissing, Mom is really... But, Dad is coming back soon. I wonder if he has a gift. If not, hmph! I won't let him kiss me."
There is no doubt that this one-minute communication brought great vitality to the mother and son, and it was also Lan Xuanyu's best first-year graduation gift.
During the one and a half month vacation, Lan Xiao was right. Lan Xuanyu also told Nan Cheng about the high-energy youth class next semester. Naturally, he got Nan Cheng's support.
Lan Xuanyu set a goal for himself, first of all, to break through the soul power to level 14 within one and a half months. Then it is an all-round improvement.
The family training room can provide up to three times the gravity. When Nana was teaching Lan Xuanyu, she had already let him try one times the gravity. Lan Xuanyu decided to increase the gravity to at least 1.5 times during this holiday to make his body stronger.
In the previous semester, perhaps because of the rare ingredients, he grew taller and stronger. He was taller than other children of the same age. Therefore, although his soul power did not increase very fast, he could clearly feel that his physical fitness improved very quickly. Especially in terms of strength and speed. Moreover, he became more and more proficient in controlling the water element and could already do some very delicate things.
He spent this holiday strictly according to the plan. Knowing her husband's exact return time, Nan Cheng's mood was naturally much better. She took Lan Xuanyu out to play several times during the holiday. Although the time was not long, they were still happy.
One and a half months will be up soon.
Lan Xuanyu successfully upgraded to level 14 soul power, and he did so shortly after the holiday. Considering that he was only seven years old, this was still a pretty good result.
However, school was about to start, but Lan Xiao hadn't come back yet. As time passed, Nan Cheng began to get a little anxious again.
What Lan Xuanyu heard most was his mother muttering, "Why haven't you come back yet? Why haven't you come back yet?"
"School is starting tomorrow. Have you packed everything?" Nan Cheng finished cleaning the kitchen and came to Lan Xuanyu's bedroom and asked.
In just one holiday, she felt that her son seemed to have grown a little taller. The speed of this change was really fast!
"Everything is packed. Mom, I plan to meditate in the practice room tonight." Lan Xuanyu doesn't sleep often now. According to Nana's teachings, the longer you meditate, especially if you can enter deep meditation, the more helpful it will be for your practice. He remembers Nana's teachings very clearly.
"Well, that's good. Then you should go earlier." Nan Cheng smiled and touched his son's cheek.
"OK."
"Crack, crack!" At this moment, the door opened.
The mother and son went outside at the same time and looked at each other.
The next moment, Lan Xuanyu was the first to shout: "Dad—" He jumped off the bed with a leap. Even Nan Cheng only felt a flash before his eyes, and Lan Xuanyu had already rushed out of the room.
Lan Xiao had just entered the room when he felt a dark shadow rushing towards him. Coupled with the call, he naturally opened his arms without taking it seriously.
Lan Xuanyu instantly hung on Lan Xiao like a monkey. Lan Xiao felt his whole body sink and couldn't help laughing: "You are really a lot heavier, kid!"
"Dad, Dad!" Lan Xuanyu hugged Lan Xiao's neck tightly. He hadn't seen him for half a year! How could he not miss him
Nan Cheng had naturally already run out of the house by now. When she saw Lan Xiao, her eyes suddenly turned red.
Lan Xiao's face was obviously a bit more weathered, with untidy beard and a bit sloppy. But fortunately, his eyes were still very bright, which made people feel relieved unconsciously.
"You still remember to come back!" Nan Cheng couldn't help but complain.
Lan Xiao smiled, revealing a mouthful of white teeth, "If I don't come, where can I go? This is my only home! What's more, I have two babies at home."
"Bah, shameless. Who is your baby?" Nan Cheng blushed and said unhappily, "You haven't eaten yet? I'll cook for you. The kitchen has just been cleaned up and it's going to be messed up again." Although she said this, she had already run quickly to the kitchen.
Lan Xuanyu didn't mind Lan Xiao's beard pricking his face, and rubbed it against his face, whispering, "Dad, Mom keeps asking why you haven't come back yet."
Lan Xiao smiled and said, "She has a sharp tongue but a soft heart. School starts tomorrow, right? Dad finally got back in time. Can I take you to school tomorrow?"
"Okay! Okay!" Lan Xuanyu smiled in surprise.
Lan Xiao put his son down, kissed him on the face, and whispered, "Dad will go to your mother first. You have to comfort her."
"Yeah. Go ahead, Dad."
Lan Xiao walked into the kitchen and saw Nan Cheng had already taken out all the good ingredients at home and was busy.
Lan Xiao stopped and stared at this familiar scene in a daze, his eyes becoming moist.
For nearly eight months, what he missed most was this scene that he could see every day, right? What could be more exciting and heartwarming than this
"Chengcheng." Lan Xiao called softly.
Nan Cheng didn't turn around, but whispered, "You're so corny."
"Yeah. You're the only one I'm disgusted with." Lan Xiao walked up from behind and put his arms around his wife's waist.
Nan Cheng's body suddenly became soft, and she leaned in that familiar and solid embrace, unable to help but shed tears.
"I'm sorry for making you worry." Lan Xiao kissed her hair.
Nan Cheng said, "Don't stay there for so long anymore. Okay?"
"Yeah. I can't bear to leave you too! Only after we've parted, I realize how painful it is."
That night, Lan Xuanyu did not practice anymore because he had another meal with his father...
This night, the house is full of warmth.
