Xia Yue looked at the crocodile- shaped pacifier and immediately started crying loudly. Qiao Mei quickly hugged Xia Yue and asked, “What’s wrong, my baby? Don’t tell me you miss Papa?”

Xia Xing raised her head to look at Qiao Mei in disdain and said, “My younger brother doesn’t like crocodiles.’

Qiao Mei hurriedly put the crocodile- shaped pacifier into her pocket to hide it. She was not interested in why Xia Yue was crying now. Instead, she was curious about how Xia Xing knew about crocodiles.

“Baby, how do you know that this is a crocodile?” Qiao Mei asked.

“It’s written in a book. 1 don’t know how to read, but Grandma Wang told me about it. My younger brother cries whenever he sees the picture of the crocodile,” Xia Xing said slowly.

Qiao Mei had bought many textbooks for infants and young children back home a long time ago. She had waited for a long time for the books to be sent over, but during that period of time, she was so busy with the farm that she forgot all about this matter. It was likely that Auntie Wang had found the books and started to teach the children how to read by looking at the pictures.

When she was not around, the children had really grown up a lot both physically and mentally. Their thoughts had become more individualistic.

They were beginning to take on Qiao Mei’s tone and attitude more and more.

It was not Xia Zhe’s fault for buying the wrong gift. After all, she did not know that Xia Yue hated crocodiles either. She decided to buy another cute pacifier for Xia Yue when she went to Sky City this time,

Just as Qiao Mei was packing her things to leave the room, Xia Xing suddenly grabbed the corner of Qiao Mei’s top and said, “Thank you for the gift, Papa and Mama.’

Xia Fan also thanked Qiao Mei solemnly. Qiao Mei was so touched that she almost teared up. She smiled and said, “Alright babies, Mama is going back to

work~ You play by yourselves~ Mama loves you.”

At night, Xia He went to Qiao Mei’s room. At this moment, Qiao Mei was in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling windows, looking at the scenery outside. It had been a long time since she could sit down to admire the moon.

“l hope you didn’t ask me to come here and admire the moon with you,” Xia He asked as she sat down on the carpet next to Qiao Mei.

“Of course not. I just want to tell you that I’ve found Xia Zhe,” Qiao Mei said with a smile.

“Are you joking with me? Have you really found Xia Zhe?” Xia He asked in shock.

She knew a little bit about Xia Zhe’s mission. Before she left on this trip, Xia Wen had mentioned it to her. She had also been in the military for a period of time and knew how difficult and dangerous a secret mission was.

“Xia Zhe has already completed his mission and he will be back soon. We have to use different identities when we go to Sky City,” Qiao Mei said.

“Yes, 1 understand. Then what’s my identity?” Xia He asked as she looked at Qiao Mei solemnly.

Qiao Mei chuckled and said, “Don’t be so nervous. The mission is already over. It’s just that Xia Zhe needs to continue using his mission identity here, so our real identities can’t get exposed as well. My surname is Pu when I’m there, so you have to use this surname too..”
