"Big brother, you're back." After finishing their day's work, Tao Ran returned home dusty. Tao Tian and An An hurriedly went to greet him.

"Uncle, you're back. Hurry up and eat. Grandma said that you can only eat when you're back." Anthea pulled at Tao Ran with her chubby little hands as she spoke with slight dissatisfaction.

"An An, unhappy? That uncle has had a hard day, so of course we have to wait for him. " Auntie Zhong walked up from behind with a smile and hugged An An as she spoke.

"Alright, alright. Once uncle has washed his hands, we'll start eating immediately, alright?" Tao Ran also had a smile on his face. No matter when he returned home, Tao Tian and An An's little faces would be waiting for him. He would be satisfied.

"Big brother, what's going on outside?" Tao Tian worriedly asked as he approached Tao Ran.

"It is as we thought," Tao Ran nodded with a serious expression. "I saw two groups of people, but fortunately they didn't follow us. They were just waiting downstairs. What about you guys? Did you go downstairs today? " Tao Ran asked worriedly.

"No, An An has been quarreling all day to go out. I didn't even give her permission, so it's hard for this child. He's the age who loves to play anyway." Tao Tian looked at An An's cute appearance and said with a hint of impatience, "Oh yeah, what about the matter about brother leaving? Does Miss Ye know? " Tao Tian asked.

"I …" Ye Jinsheng's expectation was still in Tao Ran's mind. He was a decisive man, yet now he was so conflicted.

"Big brother, I know you have some problems. It's okay, it's not urgent. You know, my cooking skills are good, right?" Tao Tian naturally understood his brother's hesitation and hastily comforted him.

"Silly girl, don't worry. Big brother won't drag it on for too long." After Tao Tian pointed out his thoughts, Tao Ran somewhat embarrassedly said, "Let's go, it's time to eat."

Looking at the harmonious backs of the siblings, Auntie Zhong was relieved and pleased. The siblings cared for each other so much. Thinking about each other made her feel comforted.

"Alright, let's eat. Our little An An is starving to death." Tao Ran said to An An with a doting expression after washing his hands.

"That's right," Anthea nodded in agreement as she struggled to climb into her own chair.

"Ai, it's all my fault for trusting others lightly. Otherwise, I wouldn't have caused so much trouble." Sitting around the dining table, Tao Tian said in frustration.

"Alright, you don't want to think about it either. Don't blame yourself anymore." Tao Ran immediately comforted softly, "Quickly eat, eat."

The four of them seemed to be in a blissful mood. Leaving aside the covetous gazes of the crowd outside, it was truly a beautiful sight …

"Mommy, when can I go out and play? I miss TangTang a little. " An'an asked curiously while they ate.

"Good An An, in a few more days it'll be fine. If you think about TangTang, Mommy's going to lend you her phone to call her?" In the past few days, An An had asked Tao Tian this question countless times. Tao Tian had racked his brain to think of different answers to answer this little ghost every time.

"No, I want to see the real TangTang." For the active little An An, the imprisonment of the day was enough to make him lose his temper.

"An An, if you don't listen, then you're not a good boy. Mommy doesn't like you anymore." Tao Tian hurriedly lied to An An An.

"Yao Yao." Tao Ran glanced at Tao Tian, using his eyes to signal her not to act like this.

"An'an, uncle will tell you." Tao Ran seemed to be more patient than Tao Tian as he said, "We came to compete with Mommy and Grandmother to see who has the endurance to stay at home longer. If we win, Uncle will have a prize." Tao Ran looked at An An with a face full of love, as if he was doting on her.

"Really?" Anthea seemed to be interested. "What gift is Uncle going to give me?"

"About this, let's keep it a secret for the time being. However, it must be what An An wants the most." Tao Ran deliberately mystified.

"Really? Uncle, you're not lying? "How do you know what Ann wants the most?" An An's eyes were wide and filled with disbelief.

"Of course." Tao Ran has a confident look on his face. " Therefore, if An An wants to receive rewards, you'll have to endure through the next few days. "

"Then... "Alright, Mommy, you need to lend me your phone, I want to talk to TangTang in private." An An An turned her small face to Tao Tian and said.

"Alright, alright, alright. Can the baby eat now?" Tao Tian's anger turned to joy as he gently asked.

"Mhmm, my stomach is so hungry." In the end, An An was still a child. However, she instantly forgot about her earlier displeasure. She held her small bowl up and began to wolf it down.

Seeing An Ran's little appearance, Tao Tian's heart couldn't help but be filled with mixed emotions. After fleeing back and forth, they were still targeted by his grandfather. He didn't know if he would be able to safely overcome this tribulation …

Tao Yao was looking at her background when Tao Ran's large, warm hands suddenly tightened around her. Tao Tian raised his head and met Tao Ran's determined eyes. His brother was using his eyes to tell him that everything would be fine. She also believed …

In the blink of an eye, a day passed. An An was still considered to be safe, because he thought about the matter that Tao Ran had agreed to.

In fact, Tao Yao could tell that An Xin was holding back her heart. For a three or four-year-old baby, staying at home all day was indeed a difficult task.

"Mommy, the sun looks good today." Anthea was lying on the windowsill, looking outside the window with a fervent expression on her face. " I wonder how are the kindergarten teachers and children doing? " An An An muttered to himself.

"An An, are you missing the teachers and children?" Tao Tian asked as he stood on the windowsill while carrying An An.

"Yes, I do." An'an nodded honestly.

"I wanted to go out and play, but I promised Uncle that I would hold it in." An An clenched her small fists, looking as if she was trying to cheer herself up.

"An An's so obedient!" Tao Tian couldn't help but kiss An An's chubby cheeks. This child always spoke such shocking words that surpassed his age. This caused Tao Tian to feel gratified, yet also feel a tender affection for him.

"Then Mommy, how long are we going to stay like this for?" An'an still asked hopefully one day.

"This …" Tao Tian was also secretly worried. He hadn't left his house for the past two days and had almost finished all of his stored food. What was he going to do now that he was sitting on empty ground? It's easy to expose his disguise. Plus, the time when he leaves work is the time when the market is at its loudest, so he couldn't help but go past a few levels. Naturally, that's inappropriate as well. " "Listen to mom. In a few days, we'll go out and play. Mommy and I have to take An An on a big plane." Tao Tian hugged An An's soft little body and buried his face into An An's neck, trying his best to smell the unique fragrance of his milk.

"Really? We can even fly on a big plane. That's great." An An An seemed to be attracted by Tao Tian's words as she spoke with a look of yearning.

"Of course it's true. When did Mommy lie to you?" Tao Tian felt a bit sad, but he forced himself to keep his spirits up as he smiled and said to An An.

He didn't know how long it would last.

"Yao Yao." Auntie Zhong stood in the living room and shouted at Tao Tian.

"Auntie, what's wrong?" Tao Tian loudly replied.

"I just went to the kitchen to have a look. There's really nothing else to eat. What should we do?" Auntie Zhong asked anxiously.

"How about we go down and buy some? We'll all equip ourselves first." Tao Yao thought for a moment before finally speaking with great difficulty.

"Then... So that's the only way. " Auntie Zhong reluctantly nodded her head. She didn't want to take An An and Tao Tian on a adventure at all. However, this desperate situation really couldn't be left to her.

"Come on, let me help you." Tao Tian brought over a large amount of makeup and sat on a chair as he spoke to Auntie Zhong.

Auntie Zhong quickly sat up straight and moved her face closer to Tao Tian. Tao Tian must have some ability, otherwise, this tribulation would be even more arduous …

"Alright, Auntie, how about you take a look at yourself in the mirror?" Tao Tian leaned back to try and see how effective it was.

"Let me see." Auntie Zhong took the mirror and looked at it carefully.

"Yao Yao, this is simply magic!" Auntie Zhong couldn't help but sigh as she looked at an unfamiliar face in the mirror.

"Hehe, as long as you are satisfied, it's my turn. Auntie, please wait for me for a moment. Quickly, go and help An An An get dressed first." Tao Tian said to Auntie Zhong while looking in the mirror. Remember the kind of garb with the big hat so you can cover Anthea's face with the hat and scarf, because Anthea is just a kid and can't make up. " Tao Tian continued to remind him.

"Alright, got it," Auntie Zhong promised while carrying An An into the bedroom.

As for Tao Yao, he carefully applied the medicine on the mirror. He didn't know if his grandfather had ever thought that these skills would be used against him one day when he was training them. Tao Tian faintly smiled, but the work in his hands did not stop …

After a while, Tao Yao succeeded in changing her appearance. The girl with small eyes in front of her seemed like an unfamiliar face.

"Auntie, is it done?" Tao Tian shouted towards the bedroom.

"Mommy, we're dressed." An An An's childish voice replied. That's great. I can go out again. " Anthea didn't know that danger lurked in every corner. She just felt that being able to get close to nature and to be able to go out and play was the best situation.

"Then let's set off," Tao Tian walked into the room and held An An's hand as he walked towards the door with Auntie Zhong. "But An An has to promise Mommy that she'll be obedient and not run around." Tao Tian said to An An with a serious face.

"Understood." An An waved her small hand, making a gesture of energy that caused Auntie Zhong and Tao Tian to be unable to restrain their laughter.

He was already impatient to be able to leave, so he naturally obeyed Mommy's request.

"That's weird." Tao Yao said with a smile. He opened the door and the three of them walked out. The three of them had never been able to go out like today and face a great enemy in such a perturbed manner.

Walking out of the corridor, Tao Yao began to look around to see if there were any suspicious dangerous elements.

He looked around and confirmed a few suspicious looking people.

"Auntie, be careful. Someone is indeed monitoring this building." Tao Tian whispered to Auntie Zhong.

Auntie Zhong gently nodded her head to show that she understood while striding toward the market with Tao Tian.
