"Why don't we go out and eat something," suggested Tao Ran.

"I don't know if An An has anything to eat," Tao Tian muttered, not knowing who he was going to say it to.

These words made Tao Ran and Auntie Zhong speechless. They didn't know how to reply.

"Yao Yao, only by eating can you have the experience to save An'an." Tao Ran advised.

"Yao Yao, why don't I tell Zichen?" Auntie Zhong suddenly stood up and shouted loudly.

"Him?" Tao Tian ruefully smiled, "If it weren't for that damned fiancée of his, An An wouldn't have been captured!" Tao Tian's eyes were filled with resentment and resentment.

"He's about to get married to that woman. Would he still care about her life or death?" As Tao Tian spoke, he actually smiled. However, such a mournful smile made Tao Ran and Auntie Zhong's hearts ache.

"Big brother, I don't want to eat. I'll go out for a walk." Tao Tian stood up and left without waiting for Tao Ran's reply.

"Yao, Yao!" Seeing Tao Tian absentmindedly leave the room, Tao Ran worriedly followed him out. "Auntie, you need to be careful at home. I'll go see my sister." Before he left, Tao Ran shouted at Auntie Zhong.

"Don't worry, go see your little sister." Auntie Zhong shouted. This kind of scene had never happened before, but time had changed the children and her too. It was truly sad.

Tao Tian staggered aimlessly along the street. When she saw a three or four year old baby, she would stop for a moment and carefully check if it was safe or not. She felt like she was about to go crazy, but she tried her best to restrain herself.

It was already the age of ten thousand lights, the smell of fireworks filled the air. Tao Tianyi suddenly felt that An An was holding his sleeves and whispering what he wanted to eat, complaining that he had too little time to play with his lessons, complaining that Mummy was too busy working to take him to the park, fantasizing that the father of the hero who saved the world would suddenly appear in front of him.

"An An, if you can come back safely, mommy will take you to do the roller coaster everyday, ride the merry-go-round, ride the Ferris Wheel, mommy …" Tao Tianxin thought. He couldn't think of anything else to say. He looked up at the sky. She didn't want to cry. She had to be strong at all times before An An found her.

The streetlights on both sides of the road lit up punctually, one by one. Tao Yao was the type of light that appeared to be coming from the depths of her heart. As the sun rose, they went out, one by one, until it became pitch black.

She wanted to hope that this was such a simple phrase, that her expectations for life had gradually been reduced to the lowest. But life was not a child at her mercy, but a web, immobile, unable to change, unable to accept what he had given her.

Ah!" Tao Yao raised her face and shouted towards the already darkened sky. She wanted to shout out all the hardships she had endured over the years, "An'an, my An!" Tao Tian continued to shout at the top of his lungs, drawing many passersby to his side.

"Yao Yao, you don't need to do this, you don't!" Tao Ran hugged Tao Tian from behind and loudly said with a heartbroken expression, "Looking at you like this, big brother feels very pained." Tao Ran tried his best to cover Tao Tian with his voice.

"Big brother, I'm in so much pain. It hurts here. I feel like I can't breathe. Why? Everyone told me it was wrong, so who could tell me what was right and what was right? I only want my safety, my safety! " Tao Tian collapsed into Tao Ran's embrace. The strong outer shell she had camouflaged for an entire afternoon instantly collapsed. She began to hysterically cry out loud.

"Yao Yao, listen to big brother's words and focus your energy. You have good martial skills, and big brother's as well. Tomorrow, you will definitely take An An back." Tao Ran gently caressed Tao Tianyi's head that was nestled in his embrace as he consoled her. He didn't know what else to do other than comfort him like this.

"Grandfather is familiar with the technology that we specialize in. How could he let us succeed so easily?" Tao Tian's face was covered in tears, but he continued to sob, "I only wish for my life in exchange for mine. I hope you can use me to exchange for safety. This is good enough." Tao Tian said, "If worst comes to worst, we'll just die together. We absolutely can't let An An to suffer."

"Yaoyao, silly girl, that won't happen. You will all be fine." Tao Ran hugged Tao Tian tighter and tighter, as if he would lose her at any time.

"Big brother, if I die, remember to take good care of An'an for me." Tao Yao whispered in her older brother's arms, as if she had already lost all hope in living.

"Yao Yao, don't say such silly things. You won't die. We will both live a long time. We also have to watch An An's wedding and give birth to a grandson just like him." Tao Ran continuously encouraged Tao Tian.

"Yaoyao, go home. Auntie Zhong is still waiting for us at home. Let's go home to eat something and then have a good night's sleep. Tomorrow, we will kill every single one of them!" Tao Ran helped Tao Tian plan. His eyes were filled with pity and anxiety. He naturally felt the same way. However, Tao Tian seemed to have lost control of himself. He had to keep his mind clear at all times.

"Eating?" Tao Tian raised his head and looked at him with a muddled look in his eyes. It seemed as if he no longer understood the meaning of these two words.

"That's right, let's eat. Only after we eat can we have energy. An An is still waiting for you to save him, how can you collapse first?"

"That's right." Tao Tian seemed to wake up from the depths of his heart. He raised his eyes to look at the dusky sky, "You can feel all the sadness. But please quickly pass." Facing the direction where the sun was setting, Tao Tian closed his eyes and muttered in his heart.

"Yao Yao?" Tao Ran asked tentatively.

"Big brother, let's go eat, it's for my safety." Tao Tian opened his eyes and held Tao Ran's hand as they rushed into the small shop beside the road. She only wanted to eat; the concept of food was like the cornerstone of saving a peaceful life in her heart. She did not care about the details of the food.

He randomly ate some food and then packed a lot of it back. Part of it was for Auntie Zhong and the other part was something Tao Tian knew in his heart that she would soon have an endless night waiting for her.

When he got home, Auntie Zhong was anxiously pacing back and forth, half worrying about safety and the other half worrying about the siblings.

"The two of you are finally back." Seeing Tao Ran slowly carrying Tao Tian into the living room, Auntie Zhong's heart finally dropped.

"Yao Yao, An An is in the hands of the bandits. If anything happens to you, what do you want An Xin to do? What does Big Brother do? What do you want Auntie to do!" The emotions that Auntie Zhong spoke of seemed to be like that of their loved ones.

"Don't worry Auntie, I won't fall for the sake of safety." Tao Tian's voice was calm, and one could no longer see the waves in his heart. " We just had dinner outside, and we even brought some back for you. Here, auntie, hurry up and eat. " Tao Tian said this as he took the food from Tao Ran and handed it to Auntie Zhong.

"Sigh, good, good. All of you have to be fine. " Auntie Zhong looked at the two of them like they were her own children …

After dinner, Auntie Zhong and Tao Ran silently sat on the sofa. They were deeply worried about tomorrow's battle while Tao Tian hid in his bedroom to prepare for the Voodoo Gu technique that he had not touched for many years.

How laughable. He had nearly lost his life because of this, but now he wanted to use it as a weapon to protect himself and his child.

As time passed, beads of sweat constantly dripped from Tao Tian's forehead. Seeing that the time was almost up, she carefully reached her hand into the Blood Jade Cauldron to let the Gu worm familiarize itself with her smell and skin.

As expected, the extremely poisonous Gu worms climbed onto her snow-white arm and quickly fled. Not long later, they disappeared without a trace under her skin, finally succeeding. Tao Yao wiped the sweat off her forehead; as she hadn't practiced this magic for many years, Tao Tian's physique was already somewhat unable to adapt to the Gu's poison.

Her face was pale, and her vision was blurry. Her stomach was in a mess, and she couldn't breathe out or out. As he walked, he felt as if he had fallen into the clouds.

"Yao Yao, are you alright?" When Tao Ran saw that Tao Tian still hadn't come out after so long, he couldn't help but rush into the room with some worry. Seeing Tao Tian's weak appearance, he hurriedly supported her and asked with concern.

"It doesn't matter." Tao Yao wiped away the sweat on his forehead and softly said, "I'm just a little not used to it. I just need to rest for a bit before I'll be fine."

"Oh, then I'll help you get into bed," Tao Ran said as he gently helped Tao Tian to lie down on the bed.

"Brother, An An will be fine, right?" asked Tao Tian, who was lying on the bed and tightly holding Tao Ran's hand.

"Yes, it will be fine. When have we siblings ever failed?" Tao Ran smiled and comforted his sister softly.

"Hurry up and rest." With that, he tucked his sister in, turned off the lights in the room, and left.

"Auntie Zhong, you can sleep here today. You can sleep in my room. I'm still sleeping on the sofa. I'm still worried about you being alone." At this moment, Tao Ran had already become the backbone of everyone.

"Alright, alright." Auntie Zhong did not refuse. All she thought about in her heart was how she could spend more time with her children, and how she could get news of her safety from them …

Tao Ran cleaned up and the three of them went to bed. In the darkness, they couldn't sleep because An An was their little angel. Now that the angel wasn't by their side, how could they sleep?

Tao Tian lied on his bed, tossing and turning. Countless sleepless nights were not as memorable as this one, the small bed beside him was still safe, An An's favorite stuffed toy, simulation car toy, soft quilt that gave off a milky fragrance, Tao Tian opened his arms and looked at the empty space in his arms, and couldn't help but feel sorry. The small body that An Xin held in her arms seemed to be still warm in her arms, "An, An," Tao Tian's heart felt like it was being gnawed by countless bugs.

The first ray of sunlight shone into the window. Tao Tian stretched out his muscles and bones and groped his way out of bed. Her physical strength was gradually restored. She tried out a few simple fighting moves. Fortunately, nothing happened.

Tao Tian walked into the living room and discovered that Tao Ran had already woken up. He was sitting on the sofa, smoking a cigarette.
