Feng Jiu and Dong Hua walked side by side on the lake bridge as Zhe Yan stood with his arms crossed at the end of the bridge because he intended to wait for the couple in purpose. Zhe Yan cleared his throat strangely just to get the lovebirds' attention. Feng Jiu blushed and tried to let go of Dong Hua's arms around her waist, while her husband tightened his embrace instead.

"Haiya, one on the edge, the other..."

"What?" Dong Hua cut him off with a sharp glare.

Feng Jiu paid her respects to the supreme god even though she couldn't escape her husband's clutches. "God Zhe Yan has apparently arrived here."

"I'm surprised. How come I got here before you guys?"

"What do you need here?" Dong Hua asked before the old Phoenix rambled on any further.

"Just dropping off my patient."

"Is uncle recovered?" Feng Jiu was very enthusiastic.

"Hmm, he's been here for two days,"

"Master Zhe Yan, it's time for you to check Gugu. Gugu's uterus is weak and also..."

"It's a bit difficult to check your Gugu now,"

"What does that mean?"

"Xiaobai, it would be better to talk about it in the fox cave." Dong Hua reminded. Feng Jiu agreed, "You are right. We will talk about this casually."

"Come on, please, Master Zhe Yan."

Zhe Yan nodded. Simple conversations took place along the way. Not many people knew about Ye Hua and Bai Qian. Talking about it on a public street would  lead to unnecessary speculation if other people heard about it.

The moment they entered the fox cave, little Gungun lunged at Feng Jiu's feet vigorously. Feng Jiu knelt down to match her height with Gungun and stroked his head. "Mom and Dad have arrived. Has the little baby been made?"

Feng Jiu's eyes moved awkwardly at Gungun's question. Dong Hua looked away. Feng Jiu expected Dong Hua to help her in answering Gungun's question but it seemed that Dong Hua had left this matter to her. Grinning, she instead asked back, "Uhm, Gungun, what do you mean? What little baby?"

"God Zhe Yan said that you and father lord went somewhere to make a little baby and wouldn't come back if the little baby wasn't made succesfully. Now that you've returned, that means the little baby has been successfully made, right?"

At that moment Feng Jiu's face turned even redder. Dong Hua gave Zhe Yan piercing eyes while the God who was implanting strange thoughts in Gungun only smirked at Dong Hua's fierce face. Dong Hua, who did not accept Zhe Yan's actions, sent lightning to strike ten of Zhe Yan's peach trees and made the owner of the tree felt irritated by it.

"Gun gun, little baby will come when the time is right." Dong Hua replied in the end. His son turned to him with a twinkle in his eye. "Really? Gun gun dear you, father lord!" He said as he welcomed his father's hug. Dong Hua hugged the boy back and carried him to the living room.

"I will prepare lunch. Please have a seat, Lord Zhe Yan." Feng Jiu prepared her guests. She went to the kitchen while Zhe Yan followed Dong Hua who was carrying Gun gun and sat in the living room.

"Father, see this?" Gungun who was sitting on Dong Hua's lap took out a floral design from his sleeve. Zhe Yan also observed the hand made. Dong Hua took it and admired it, "Wow, great. Very good. Is this a bracelet?"

Gungun nodded. "This is for mother. I've made this for great aunt. Great uncle brought it for her and finally they are together until now."

"Is that true?'
