She looked at her dad, Ye Fan, who didnât look too pleased, as if he didnât want them to stay here.
Given the circumstances, it must be that Dad had something to do and didnât want them to know.
Therefore, she thought of taking her sisters away from here.
It would be bad to bother Dad when it was unnecessary.
âNo, I want to stay here anyway!â Little Fourth Ye Jie said.
âAlright, all of you go back. I donât need your company. Go home quickly, I have my own things to do, and youâre disturbing me by staying here!â Ye Fanâs expression grew colder.
These little ones were really not easy to deal with.
Did he really have to be strict with them before theyâd listen?
Nice talk just didnât work!
âGo play with your older sister. Donât stay here. I have something here that requires silence. How can I think with all your noise and commotion!â Ye Fan spoke up again.
âAlright, big sister, letâs go!â
âFourth sister, letâs go, donât bother Dad anymore. Weâll go back and play!â Ye Bing said,.
âNo, I want to stay here and watch over Dad!â
âLittle Fourth, Iâve said, I donât need you watching over me. Go home with your older sisters. I need peace and quiet. Your racket and fussing disturb me!â Ye Fan said.
This child was really disobedient!
Outrageous!
âAlright then!â Little Fourth Ye Jie looked at her dad, who seemed genuinely angry, and finally agreed to leave.
âHurry back, and if thereâs nothing to do, keep your mom company!â Ye Fan said, waving his hand with a hint of impatience showing on his face.
âThen weâre leaving, Dad!â
Ye Bing took the three little ones away.
It was only then that Ye Fan breathed a sigh of relief.
It was really tough!
Finally, he had persuaded the little ones to go back.
It seemed that the oldest, Ye Bing, was more sensible and considerate of Dad.
Little Fourth was just too naughty and mischievous.
The second and the third had been somewhat influenced by the fourth.
This was reallyâ¦
Forget it, forget it. No need to think about these things anymore. It was good that they left.
Ye Fan looked down at his slightly bulging stomach, relieved that the little ones hadnât noticed.
If they had, he wouldnât even have the chance to explain.
His lifetime of reputation couldnât be ruined like this.
Watching them leave, Ye Fanâs heart also relaxed.
At that moment, he touched the three eggs with his hand and, for some reason, felt that they would likely hatch soon. Last time, when hatching Niuniu, it had been the same.
Presumably, these eggs were also close to hatching,
Ye Fan moved the eggs closer to his chest where it was warmer, which would help speed up the hatching.
After waiting for a while, Ye Fan felt the eggs at his chest move as if something was about to come out,
Frightened, he immediately took the three eggs out of his embrace and placed them on the lawn, where he saw one of them starting to crack. The cracks widened, and then a small hole appeared; the next second, before Ye Fan could react, a little head poked out of the hole, thisâ¦
Ye Fan did not disturb the little one, who started nibbling on the eggshell and began eating it.
The other two eggs also began to crack, and watching this scene made Ye Fan excited.
All three were about to hatch.
What would they turn out to be?
Ye Fan was incredibly curious.
He watched the three little ones without even blinking.
âDad, what are you looking at?â A voice startled Ye Fan.
Thisâ¦
âDad, I didnât mean to scare you. I just thought you might be bored!â Little Fourth Ye Jie said somewhat apologetically.
Her look was pitiful.
She knew she had been impulsive and scared her dad.
âYou, didnât you go to play with your sisters? Why are you back again!â Ye Fan frowned, somewhat at a loss for words.
âHehe, I just wanted to accompany Dad. Oh, whatâs this, Dad, are these chicken eggs?â Ye Jie curiously looked at the three eggs about to hatch in front of her.
Why is this one about twice the size of a chicken egg?
âForget it, donât talk, just sit here quietly, so as not to scare them,â Ye Fan said, his tone carrying a hint of seriousness.
There was no way around it, since he wasnât incubating eggs himself, he might as well just watch.
But who knew, the next moment, the other three little ones had all run over.
Ye Fan stopped them with a stern look, and no one spoke out, obediently sitting on the ground, staring at the three eggs in front of them.
In the meantime, the creature that had poked out a white little head was busily nibbling on the eggshell.
The other two had also cracked open, with another tiny head poking out, gnawing on the shell beneath it.
âCrunch crunch,â they ate contentedly.
Ye Fan couldnât make out what the creatures were no matter how he looked.
The first one ate the fastest, showing its true formâa green snake that wasnât particularly good-looking, a bit ugly, actually.
The second one also appeared quickly, resembling a mini version of Xiao Bai, but wait, that wasnât right!
Dogs are mammals, how could they come from an egg? Ye Fan was baffled!
The creatures hatching from the eggs, brought by the System, were truly unique.
The little white dog licked its white fur and then came in front of Ye Fan, gazing at him with yearning in its clear eyes.
The little green snake did the same, looking at Ye Fan with affection in its eyes.
They clearly knew who had incubated them, instinctively regarding that person, Ye Fan, as their parent.
It was finally down to the last little one, who looked somewhat different, with a flat head and slow at eating the eggshell. No matter how you looked at it, this head resembled a turtleâs.
Ye Fan wasnât in a rush, patiently waiting for the little one to eat the eggshell.
Raising his hand, he lifted the little green snake and the little white dog; they were very small, both together were only as big as Ye Fanâs palm, smaller even than Niuniu had been initially.
This was truly strange.
What kind of creatures were these, anyway?
Could it really just be a green snake, a little puppy, and a turtle?
This egg incubation was a bit different.
âDaddy, what are these exactly?â Ye Jie asked in a soft voice, her eyes filled with intense curiosity.
It seemed to be a snake and a puppy, but she was not at all afraid.
The three younger girls huddled close, watching intently without saying a word.
They, too, were eager to know.
âItâs what you see, a green snake, a dog, and over there, a turtle!â Ye Fan said, somewhat speechlessly.
He was feeling a bit frustrated inside.
Anyway, he didnât understand.
The little ones seemed utterly ordinary no matter how he looked at them but they were so much smaller.
The turtle, eating the eggshell, was a bit on the slower side.
Ye Fan wasnât in a hurry, as he had nothing urgent to do.
He played with the two little ones in his palm, and, of course, he kept an eye on the little turtle.
âDaddy, these three little things are so ugly, they arenât as pretty as my Niuniu, not fun at all, Iâm leaving!â With those words, Little Fourth Ye Jie turned and walked away.
Ye Fan was taken aback. Were they really that ugly?n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
When he had tried to get her to leave before, she wouldnât, and now she had willingly left. It was strange, could it be she disliked them because they were ugly?
âThey arenât ugly though, I think theyâre very cute!â Ye Bing said, looking at the little green snake and the little white dog in her dadâs hands, her eyes brimming with fondness.
âI donât think theyâre ugly either. The green snake looks good, and this little white dog is incredibly cute, I really want to pet it!â Ye Qing said, her eyes sparkling with excitement.
âI also think theyâre quite cute, not ugly at all. Hey there little ones, hello!â Ye Yu greeted the little creatures with a smile.
âAs long as theyâre not ugly and you all like them, thatâs good,â said Ye Fan, nodding his head.
Little Fourth Ye Jie sure had high standards.
Probably only Niuniu would appeal to her. You know, Niuniu was very ugly at first, bald without any feathers, just like a plucked chicken, but look how beautiful she turned out to be, growing up slowly.
âIf you like them, you can pet them, itâs alright, they wonât hurt you,â Ye Fan said.
These little ones wouldnât hurt the children; after all, his kidsâ aura was very similar to his own, so these little creatures definitely wouldnât harm them, just like Niuniu back then.
Ye Bing immediately gently petted the little white dog, her eyes full of joy.
Truly, it was okay!
Ye Qing petted the little green snake and was also very happy.
Ye Fan looked at the little turtle on the ground, which was pretty much a small turtle, still soldiering on alone.
