Chapter 835: Gift
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Sindili left with Jiang Wei, as if she was only here to give Su Xiaolu a gift. She was like a real old friend giving a gift after being reunited.
After Sindili left, Su Xiaolu smiled and asked, “Sister, can you feel it when
Sindili uses her superpower?”
Su Xiaolu did not know what level Sindili and Su Xiaoling were at. Both of them had mental-type superpowers, but there were definitely differences in strength. She did not want her sister to be weak.
But if the truth was right in front of her, she wouldn’t lie to herself.
She needed to know some of Sindili’s motives.
Su Xiaoling smiled and nodded. “Yes. Ordinary people can’t feel mental-type superpowers, but they can feel it when they’re both mental-type superpowers. There will be a force fluctuating. Don’t worry, Sindili knows that I’m also a mental-type superpower user. She won’t do anything rash.”
Just now, she did not feel any power fluctuating. Moreover, she and Sindili were not enemies now. There was no need for Sindili to use mental control on
Su Xiaolu.
“That’s good. When you see her, you have to be extremely careful.”
Su Xiaolu’s heart sank. Sindili was stronger than her sister. She still did not know why Sindili was looking for her. Su Xiaolu hid this news and instructed Su Xiaoling to be careful when she met Sindili.
That was all she could do for now.
Su Xiaoling nodded. She knew that Sindili was not an ordinary person. She would be careful.
The sisters talked a lot more. In the afternoon, Zhou Wei, Zhou Xuan, Zhou Qing, and Zhou Huan returned from school.
They said to Su Xiaoling in unison, “Mother, we’re back.”
Su Xiaoling revealed a gentle expression. She touched the children’s hair one by one and introduced Su Xiaolu to them. Su Xiaoling said, “This is your Aunt. She’s the sister Mother has been thinking about. She came home safely.” The four children sized up Su Xiaolu and then looked at their mother.
Su Xiaolu waved her hand and smiled. “Weiwei, Xuanxuan, Xiaoqing, Xiaohuan, hello. I’m Su Xiaolu, your aunt.”
“Hello, Auntie.”
The younger Zhou Qing and Zhou Huan obediently called Su Xiaolu.
Zhou Wei and Zhou Xuan also greeted, “Hello, Aunt.”
Su Xiaolu smiled.
His sister was pregnant with twins twice. Her body wouldn’t be damaged, right?
Thinking of this, Su Xiaolu quickly took Su Xiaoling’s hand to take her pulse.
“I’m in good health. Don’t worry.”
Su Xiaoling smiled gently and said. Although she had given birth to twins twice and it was much harder when she was pregnant, she had recovered both times.
However, her heart was very warm to be cared for.
Su Xiaolu was relieved after taking her pulse.
“Aunt, when you come home this time, will you never leave again? Mother misses you very much. I’ve seen her secretly crying with your portrait many times.”
Zhou Xuan looked at Su Xiaolu and asked softly.
They did not have much impression of Su Xiaolu, but perhaps because they were related by blood, they were not distant from her. Looking at her, they also wanted to get close to her.
Zhou Xuan thought about how her mother had cried so many times while holding her aunt’s portrait. She sincerely hoped that her aunt would not leave the house again. That way, her mother would not be so worried and would not cry secretly.
“Xuanxuan, I still have to go explore the world in the future, but in the future, I won’t go to dangerous places. I’ll come back to the capital to see you every year.”
Su Xiaolu looked at Zhou Xuan seriously and said. She would not go to a place like the foreign land again.
She spent ten years there this time, but who is sure that it wouldn’t be longer?
Perhaps the next time they met would be in 20 or 50 years.
Her parents were just ordinary people. Their bodies were very good, but they could not cultivate, which meant that their lifespans would not be especially long. Life, old age, illness, and death were still unavoidable. In twenty or fifty years, her parents might even be gone.
Not being able to see her on their deathbed would be an eternal regret. She could not forgive herself.
“That’s good.”
Zhou Xuan smiled with yearning in her eyes.
She was born in the palace and was also trapped in the palace. She was really envious of her aunt.
It was almost dark.
Dou Fu also returned with Su Kuo.
Su Kuo pursed his lips and was not very happy.
“Come, this is your uncle. Greet him.”
Su Xiaoling smiled and introduced Su Kuo to the children.
Zhou Wei, Zhou Xuan, and the others were all looking at Su Kuo.
When Su Kuo saw this, he immediately perked up and waved at the children with a smile. “Hello.”
“Hello, Uncle.”
Zhou Wei, Zhou Xuan, Zhou Qing, and Zhou Huan were already sensible. They knew that they had two biological uncles, Su Hua and Su Chong. Now, they had another uncle. They did not understand much, but this uncle looked very cute.
Looking at the innocent smiles of the children, Su Kuo’s mood instantly improved.
Looking at the innocent smiles of the children, Su Kuo’s mood instantly improved.
Zhou Heng already knew about Su Kuo. He gently called out, “Little Kuo.”
Su Kuo also called him “Third Brother” with Su Xiaolu.
Su Kuo and Su Xiaolu stayed in the palace for dinner.
After dinner, Su Xiaolu and Su Kuo left the palace.
In the end, Su Xiaolu refused to take the spiritual stone.
After the children returned to the courtyard, Su Xiaoling said to Zhou Heng, “Sindili also came to see Xiaolu today. I don’t know what she’s thinking. She gave Xiaolu a Spirit Stone.”
“I definitely feel strange about it, but I can’t figure out what’s wrong. I’ve been guarding against her since she came. She’s obedient, but for some reason, I still feel a little uneasy.”
Su Xiaoling told Zhou Heng her worries.
Zhou Heng smiled gently and pulled Su Xiaoling over. He led her to the table and sat down. He went behind her and gently massaged her shoulder. Zhou Heng said gently, “It’s fine. She won’t hide her motives for long. Xiaolu isn’t a child anymore. You don’t have to worry about her. She’s very powerful. There aren’t many cultivators in our dynasty who have reached the Golden Core stage. Xiaolu has already reached it.”
“Really? Xiaolu is amazing.”
Su Xiaoling was a little surprised. Then, she smiled gently and looked proud.
Zhou Heng nodded. “Yes, she’s very powerful.”
“Sindili’s matter will be over in another year at most. Whether she wants to die or not, my cooperation with her is about to end.” Speaking of Sindili, Zhou Heng’s eyes darkened. This woman could not continue working with him. She was already starting to have ulterior motives.
“What about the Spirit Stones vein?” Su Xiaoling frowned slightly. She was happy to end their cooperation with Sindili, but she was also worried. The spiritual veins were very important to the country.
Zhou Heng reached out gently and smoothed Su Xiaoling’s frown. He said gently, “Our dynasty will have Spirit Stones mines soon. We have them ourselves. She has been in the palace for long enough. Now, I’m not the Crown Prince from ten years ago. It’s time to remove this thorn. For you, for myself, and for us..
