Even with a new helper, Qiao Xin is still under a lot of pressure. Recently, no one dares to go into her office unless they have something to do, for fear of detonating the stress bomb inside. People who usually come to her for help would rather face the Iceberg City Lord than go to her.

Lang Rui carried a lunch basket into Qiao Xin's office. Qiao Xin looked up at him with blurry eyes when she heard his voice. "Is it time for dinner?"

Lang Rui: "...have lunch."

Qiao Xin breathed a sigh of relief. She almost thought that the day had been wasted again and no substantial progress had been made. Fortunately, there was still half a day left.

Lang Rui touched the little ball on his head and fiddled with the hairpin on it. Qiao Xin waved his hand away and said, "I'm hungry."

Lang Rui gave her an unpleasant look. You work so hard that you don't even go home to eat. If I'm not hungry, who will you starve?

But he really couldn't let his baby starve, so Lang Rui opened the lid of the basket and brought out a bowl of rice, two plates of vegetables, a plate of pickled cabbage, and a plate of braised rabbit meat.

Smelling the aroma, Qiao Xin became even hungrier and couldn't wait to pick up the chopsticks, "Huh? Where's the rabbit meat? Is Langyu awake?"

The two were a little worried about Xiao Langyu's condition. It was not like the habit of orcs to sleep like this all the time. They used the white bird to send a message to inform Langqing and Bairu. This time they also followed Hathor's team to Black Stone City.

The couple was very careless. Seeing that the child was just sleeping and had no other symptoms, they ignored it completely and took the cat to wander around Black Rock City during the day.

Lang Rui hummed, "I was awake for a long time. I went to the forest with a friend I met during hunting to hunt some pheasants and rabbits, but I fell asleep while eating."

Qiao Xin also had no equipment to examine Lang Yu's body, and could only rely on Lu Yao and She Gong, who were knowledgeable and had ancestral books.

Qiao Xin told Lang Rui her idea, "Take Lang Yu over and let them see what's going on."

Lang Rui watched Qiao Xin wolfing down her food, "Eat slowly. Come back with me later and take Lang Yu to the witch. You are not allowed to write the Laomozi Code anymore."

Lang Rui was tough for once, but Qiao Xin pouted unhappily, "This is for our spring trip. We want to get it done quickly. With a code to follow, they can do things smoothly."

Lang Rui paused, took out a piece of paper, wiped the sauce from the corner of Qiao Xin's mouth, and said in a slow voice, "There is no need to rush. The brain needs to relax. It can't be so tense all the time. Relax a little, and maybe you will get some inspiration."

There was a chuckle from the side. Lang Rui turned his head and looked at Mao Fei who had just come back to work after dinner. He didn't look like he had just changed from being tough to being gentle. "Are you at work?"

Mao Fei's mouth widened, "It's time to go to work."

So this is the city lord's family status. He finally understood why the males in Blackrock City were somewhat timid in front of their partners.

The root is here!

Mao Feiben was a man with good eyesight. He sorted out the documents on his desk and quietly left the office with the documents in his arms.

Without Lang Rui to disturb her, Qiao Xin ate and thought at the same time, and soon some inspiration popped into her mind.

He quickly put down his bowl and chopsticks, picked up his pen and started working. Lang Rui at the side: “…” At least finish your meal before you start writing!

Just as he was about to stop him, Qiao Xin raised her head and deliberately said fiercely, "Don't move. I finally got an inspiration. If my inspiration disappears, you have to compensate me."

Lang Rui was silent for two seconds, picked up the chopsticks and fed his partner.

Qiao Xin's inspiration comes and goes quickly. It disappears completely after writing a few lines.

She slumped in the chair with a feeling of despair, wishing she could travel back to Blue Star, collect ten or eight copies of the Civil Code, and then travel through time again.

"Are you okay?" Lang Rui's voice came from above his head.

Qiao Xin raised her eyes and met Lang Rui, and saw him picking up a piece of meat with chopsticks, "It's all your fault!"

Lang Rui looked at the chopsticks speechlessly and stuffed the meat into his mouth aggrievedly, "Blame me."

Qiao Xin also realized that she was being unreasonable and burst out laughing, "Why are you so cute!"

Lang Rui had a blank expression on his face. The word cute was used to describe cubs, but since Qiao Xin said he was cute, then he must be cute.

Qiao Xin continued to finish the meal, "You are right."

Lang Rui: “?”

Qiao Xin explained: "There's no need to rush. We can't be so tense all the time. Let's go and take Lang Yu to Wu to have a look."

Lang Rui cleaned up the dishes and carried the basket with Qiao Xin.

On the way, we met several orcs who came to work in the administrative building. As soon as they left, everyone winked at each other and sighed that the city lord and Lady Qiao Xin had a very good relationship.

When they got home, Lang Rui carried the basket to the kitchen, while Qiao Xin went into the room.

On the small bed with a light blue mosquito net, there was a small figure lying. Qiao Xin came in, but she didn't move at all, just curled up and slept soundly.

Orcs have keen hearing and are very alert. Lang Yu has also received formal training, so he shouldn't sleep so soundly, even in a safe environment.

In the past, I would at least move when I heard a sound, and would relax only when I smelled the familiar scent of the person coming, but now...

Qiao Xin walked to the bed and lifted the mosquito net. The baby fat on the little guy's face seemed to have disappeared a little, and his long eyelashes covered his wheat-colored skin, making him like an exquisite little doll.

"Langyu, little darling, can you hold me?"

The little guy no longer stretched out his arms obediently as usual. A feeling of soreness rushed into Qiao Xin's eyes. She closed her eyes, picked up the little guy with the quilt, tucked him in on both sides, and wrapped him in the quilt.

As soon as he walked out of the bedroom door, Lang Rui took it and heard Qiao Xin ask: "Why do I feel that Lang Yu has lost weight and the flesh on his face has disappeared."

Lang Rui glanced at the little guy's face in his arms and said, "Yeah, you've lost some weight."

After getting the confirmation, Qiao Xin felt even worse. She had basically watched the little guy grow up. As Lang Rui's student, he followed her and Lang Rui most of the time. Now this kind of situation happened was something that the two of them had not expected.

Qiao Xin hesitated for a few seconds and asked Lang Rui in a low voice: "Could it be because he drank too much spiritual spring water?"

Lang Rui frowned: "Don't take the responsibility on yourself. You and I drink it every day, and the kittens drink it too. There is no such situation at all."

Qiao Xin didn't say anything else. No matter what, the problem with Lang Yu had to be figured out.

When the two of them left the house, the first light snow had melted away. Except for the green belts, the entire city was covered with cement. Moreover, every orc cherished his home, and everywhere was clean, without the dirt and mess after the melting snow.

Lang Rui held Lang Yu in his arms, and the two went to the hotel on the main road. When this building was first built, it was to accommodate friendly countries coming from afar. Qin Lan and She Gong lived here with their tribesmen. Lu Yao and the Huaxia tribe who came to participate in Hathor were supposed to live in the dormitory building.

But Lu Yao didn't want to go and wanted to exchange knowledge of witchcraft with the other two tribes. So Lang Rui arranged for the Huaxia tribe to live here as well.
