Married at First Sight Chapter 4391
As soon as Long Ting left the house, the old doctor noticed.
He didn’t stop the little boy but quietly followed him from a distance.
Medicine Valley was located deep in the mountains and forests. Those unfamiliar with the terrain wouldn’t dare enter even during the day, fearing they’d lose their way, encounter wild beasts, and risk their lives.
Let alone at night, when the cries of birds, insects, and beasts created a terrifying symphony enough to scare anyone.
Though Long Ting was young and brave, he was still just a small child.
The farther he walked, the more frightened he became.
He grew afraid of encountering a fierce wild animal and being eaten.
In the end, he trudged back home, looking dejected.
The old doctor, pretending to know nothing as usual, quietly allowed him to return. Long Ting slipped back into his small room, carefully put away his little suitcase, and soon fell asleep.
Home, after all, was still the safest and most comfortable place.
After that nighttime attempt to run away and being scared back home, Long Ting obediently copied medical books whenever punished and never thought about running away again.
After hanging up, Mu Qing contacted the old doctor and asked him to have Long Ting call Liberty, saying that Yangyang missed him.
A few minutes later, Liberty received a call from the old doctor.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, the adults handed their phones to the two little ones.
“Yangyang, I miss you so much,” Long Ting said on the phone, expressing his longing for his friend.
“I miss you too. Summer vacation is coming soon. Will you be coming back then? If you do, I’ll come to your house to play, and you can come to mine,” Yangyang said eagerly.
Long Ting replied, “I don’t know yet. It depends on my master’s arrangements. I can only go back if he says I can.”
“I really want to grow up fast and become an adult,” he added.
That way, he could go wherever he wanted without being restricted by adults, unlike now.
Then he could go wherever he wanted without being restricted by adults like he was now.
“I want to grow up quickly too,” Yangyang said.
Liberty and Duncan exchanged glances. She pushed the wheelchair over and said to her husband, “Let the two kids chat on the phone. I’ll push you outside for a walk.”
“Let’s go back to Jiangcheng tomorrow,” Liberty added.
Duncan smiled and replied, “Anytime is fine. I’ll follow you wherever you go.”
As husband and wife, they were inseparable—truly inseparable in every sense.
Liberty pushed her husband out and reminded her son, “Yangyang, after you finish talking to Long Ting, hand the phone back to Mom. I’m going to push Uncle Lu out for a walk.”
“Okay,” Yangyang answered without even turning his head. Then, excitedly, he said to Long Ting, “Long Ting, I’m a big brother now! My aunt gave me a little brother. When he was first born, he wasn’t cute at all—actually, he was a little ugly.”
“But now he’s not ugly anymore. He’s really cute!”
“This is my little brother. I’m officially a big brother now,” Yangyang said proudly.
Long Ting responded with an “oh.” The last time he had returned to Fengchen Villa, he remembered hearing Mother Mu mention that Aunt Hai was pregnant.
It had been quite a while since then—naturally, the baby would be born by now.
“My brother and sister can already walk and call me ‘brother,’” Long Ting said. “But your little brother was just born. Who knows how long it’ll take before he can call you brother.”
Yangyang: “…”
His excitement was immediately dampened by Long Ting’s cool response.
When Mu Qing’s twins were 100 days old, Haitong found out she was pregnant, and Zhan Yin had immediately brought her back to Wancheng.
Now that Haitong’s baby had been born, Yeyao and Junyan—the twin brother and sister—were already over one year old. It was only natural that they could walk and call their brother now.
