Body slapping sounds, their growls, and moans, rustling sounds went out of their room. If anyone was outside or their rooms were closer to them and windows were open, they might hear the obscene lovemaking sounds of the shameless couple. For their good, they should be asleep.
The moon was the most pitiful. As a lone shiner, she stood there alone and guarded the couple. She had to watch every last bit. In the end, heaven had mercy and let her hide behind a cloud.
It was six in the morning when Mu Liang washed themselves and then carried his wife's tired body to the bed. As he covered themselves under the comforter, Mu Lan rolled over his body and put her head on his chest. The sun just started to show his face from the horizon. Mu Lan covered her head with the comforter so that the sunlight couldn't bother her sleep.
"Can you breathe like that?" Mu Liang asked softly.
"Hmm…" Mu Lan couldn't hardly speak. She used too much strength yesterday. Not only she found against Mrs. Li but also, she wildly had fun with her husband. She felt like her body had broken into pieces. She had to admit that she indeed carried away.
Mu Liang saw her pale expression and asked worriedly, "Does your body hurt?"
Mu Lan could hardly open her mouth. "I… need… lots of… sleep…"
"Okay, you can sleep as much as you want." Mu Liang rhythmically stroked her head to make her fall asleep. She curled up like a kitten and slept till lunchtime without any disturbance.
The four rice balls woke up early in the morning. They slept in the opposite room with Pedro and Professor Ryuren. It was winter and the windows were closed. That's why they didn't hear a thing. The rice balls quickly got along with Professor Ryuren. Even the stoic rice ball number one and the shy rice ball number two.
Carlo was stunned when he saw that the fourth rice ball let Professor Ryuren hug him, but Carlo who stayed with the kids since they were born, the fourth one didn't go more than ten meters close to him. It pained him greatly.
At that time, Professor Ryuren smugly said, "Now I know why others say, 'blood is thicker than water'."
Carlo glared at the shy rice ball number four and told him, "From now on, you are my enemy."
It was just like his relationship with five years old Hua Lan.
It wasn't sure whether the fourth rice ball understood his foster grandfather, he was busy sitting on his real grandfather's lap all night. The rice balls became so close to him that last night, Professor Ryuren told them an adventurous story while disturbing Pedro's sleep.
Since Mu Lan reduced breastfeeding, only letting them drink for lunch, the rice balls didn't have to bother their mother in the morning. They indeed looked for their parents, but fourteen grandfathers kept them busy. The fourth rice ball stayed with Professor Ryuren and he fed this kid.
Since Carlo was offended by the fourth rice ball last night, the first rice ball sacrificed himself by letting Carlo feed him. If he couldn't appease Carlo, then they would have worse meals in the future. The naughty second and third were fed by Pedro.
Sometimes, Pedro would cook nutritious meals for the rice balls and the rice balls, especially the second and third ones, would cry out loudly. They would complain to their mother. However, their mother was more afraid of the dishes Pedro cooked. She knew that if her kids didn't eat it, Pedro would force her to eat it. So, she would feign ignorance and pretend that she didn't hear her children cry.
No one bothered the couple who were deeply asleep. In the living room, everyone was there. It turned into a park after the children were born. There were lots of toys to play. It was the rice balls' paradise.
Mark asked Juan, "Has that bi*ch Li taken care of?" He was talking about Mrs. Li's funeral.
Juan calmly answered, "Yes, when Carl informed me yesterday, I made sure to tell my local workers to create a car accident scenario and make a grave for her in the Li Family's graveyard. No one will find out how it happened. The description was that she died in a car accident in Shanghai after she came back alone from the island. She left Zhuang Lei on the island to be with little one. Both the driver and she died and their bodies were unrecognizable. Everything was authentic, even the car and the driver was from the Li Family. The only fake thing was the woman. The post mortem report said that it was Mrs. Li and so everyone had to believe it. I think her powerful family and The Mongoose will be tricked."
"Will they be tricked?" Professor Ryuren looked at Juan.
Juan shrugged. "Who knows? Maybe."
"As a person who can see the future, you know very well what will happen. Why don't you tell us?" Orio urged him.
Juan started, "As I always say, whatever it is, it will depend on the person's choice. No matter what we do or how prepared we are, if we are supposed to lose, we will lose. So why do I have to tell you something when you will know in the future anyway. You cannot change the future even if you know."
Romano was playing with the third rice ball. He said in a challenging manner, "Oh yeah? Try me."
Juan looked at him and said, "You will fart in two seconds."
Romano was about to say, "Wro-"…pud… but then, upon hearing the sound came from his lower part, his body stiffened. He didn't say anything after that.
Sometime later, he cursed, "That bi*ch Li!" He felt like it was all that dead woman's fault that the conversation went that way and he failed.
The third rice ball spoke cheerfully, "Bith! Bith!"
Romano asked, "Huh? What are you saying?"
Carlo said, "I believe he was trying to say 'bi*ch'."
Romano got angry. "Huh? Who would teach such a bad word to him?"
All the adults looked at him silently and he cowered. 'Dammit! This isn't my day.'
