"Cang Cang looks so beautiful. It suits you better than I thought. You should wear more bright-colored clothes! They complement you!" Sang Luo helped him adjust his collar, looked at him with sparkling eyes, and gave him a thumbs up with great satisfaction.

Lan Cang originally felt a little awkward, being flattered by her so much that he almost couldn't help wagging his tail, but luckily he managed to hold back.

He looked at himself in the mirror and thought he looked okay.

It turns out Luoluo likes this style.

If so, it would be better if he could be younger.

I seldom lament the ruthlessness of time, but at this moment I also feel a little helpless and regretful.

But it's not too late now, he still has half of his life to stay with her.

The two arrived on the last day of the Lantern Festival, which was also the busiest day.

Watch the lanterns and set off fireworks.

Sang Luo hasn't felt so relaxed in a long time.

In the moat not far ahead, many orcs placed river lanterns carrying wishes or blessings into the water, and let them flow away with the river.

Lan Cang took Sang Luo and walked over.

The old orc selling river lanterns was surprised to see him coming, but when he saw Sang Luo beside him, he understood and asked with a smile, "Lord City Lord has brought his wife to see the lanterns this year. I wonder what kind of river lanterns his wife likes. I'll give them to you two."

"Thank you very much." Sang Luo picked out two classic lotus river lanterns from the stall and gave one to Lan Cang.

The old beastman who sells river lanterns, "Legend has it that the destination of the river lanterns is the sacred pond of the beast god. If you two have any wishes, you can write them on the river lanterns. If you are lucky enough to be seen by the beast god, your wish may come true. Even if your wish does not come true, it is still a beautiful sustenance and memory."

"Old man, do you have a pen?" Sang Luo asked.

"Yes, yes, yes!"

The old orc brought pen, ink, paper and inkstone.

"By the way, the wish can only be known to you, and cannot be seen by others, otherwise it will not work."

Sang Luo smiled and looked at Lan Cang, "Then let's write with our backs to each other. When we release the river lanterns later, close your eyes and don't peek!"

Lan Cang also smiled and nodded, "Okay."

After writing their wishes, the two held their river lanterns in their hands, found a relatively quiet place, and placed the lanterns into the water.

After Sang Luo closed his eyes, he quietly opened one eye and glanced to the side.

Unfortunately, Lan Cang also released the lanterns back into the river, and in the foggy night, nothing could be seen clearly.

The two lanterns drifted farther and farther away with the river, meeting and separating, parting and reuniting... Soon, they were lost among the thousands of lanterns and their trace could no longer be found.

Countless lanterns meander along the river, and from a distance, they look like a bright and beautiful galaxy.

……

Five years have passed.

Sang Luo's belly was getting bigger and bigger, but there was no sign of giving birth.

"I had been pregnant with Xiao Zhenzhen for less than a year. I thought this baby would be born soon, but I didn't expect that it would be so long." Sang Luo lay on the bed, patted her belly, and sighed sadly.

"The higher the cultivation level of the parents, the higher the realm of their offspring will be when they are born. When I was pregnant with Zhenzhen, I was at the peak of the King Beast realm. Now I am at the Half-Step Venerable realm. The realm of this child after birth will only be higher, not lower. The requirements for gestation cannot be compared to what was required for little Zhenzhen back then." Si Ye has been very diligent in the past few years, finding all kinds of food for her to supplement her, and occasionally digging some from his uncle to make up enough to raise the child.

Little Zhenzhen lay on her mother's round belly and wagged her tail curiously, "I wonder if the baby in my mother's belly is a brother or a sister."

Sang Luo smiled and patted its head, "Do you want a brother or a sister?"

Little Zhenzhen tilted her head and thought seriously, "I really want a little brother."

"Oh? You like your brother?"

"Hehe, my little brother can serve me tea and water and do chores. He's easy to use!"

Sang Luo laughed out loud.

Little Zhenzhen was a little distressed and tangled, "But I also want a sister. A sister who is cute and well-behaved and can play with me! Just like the little koi at Lou Daddy's house! I also want a sister as beautiful and cute as this one!"

Si Ye's expression suddenly changed. "Say it again, who are you calling daddy?"

"Uncle Lou, my favorite mermaid uncle! He is so beautiful, hehe." Little Zhenzhen is crazy about him.

The corners of Si Ye's mouth twitched wildly, what a rebellious girl!

It really doesn't know the hardships its biological father had to endure to raise it! It didn't get a good night's sleep all day and all night! It just turned around and recognized a fish as its father!

Seeing that her father was angry, Xiao Zhenzhen rushed into his arms and acted like a spoiled child, "But I still love my dear father the most! Father is the best to me and loves me the most!"

Si Ye snorted lightly, and his expression looked better. His silly girl finally understood something.

"Luoluo, there will be a banquet in the mansion in two days. I haven't decided on a name for the banquet yet, but remember to notify the children first and call them over, especially the two little mermaids!"

“……”This is going to be a competition.

When that day came, Sang Luo called the children to the party. Si Ye took the opportunity to abduct the two little mermaids and became their little father.

Well! Not a loss, I even gained a cub!

This made Lou Xianyue very angry.

It was he who came up with this dirty trick first, and there's nothing you can do about it, he's in the wrong.

……

Xiao Shitou and Heng Tao from Suilin City had been together for several years and their relationship was quite stable. The parents of both sides felt that the time was right and decided to get married. When the children were older and ready to welcome a new family, they could choose an auspicious date to get married.

On the day of the engagement party, Lan Cang drank a lot of wine. He was very happy, but he could not hide the reluctance hidden in his heart.

Xiao Shitou went to work in Suilin City a few years ago and was not at home most of the time, but he did not start a new family. Lan Cang still felt that his child was by his side.

The child he raised with his own hands and had been by his side for so many years finally grew up one day and flew away from him completely. He felt empty in his heart, like a hole that was difficult to fill with anything else.

Xiao Shitou also told Lan Cang that they would move to Suilin City and settle there permanently.

Lan Cang helped his son pack his luggage.

There are still a lot of small stone items at home, so I cleaned them up and moved them to my new home.

The day when Little Stone left.

Lan Cang was lost for a long time. He gave his son a lot of beast crystals. He needed money and resources to stand on his feet after leaving home. Everything he had done over the years was enough for his children to not have to endure the hardships he had when he was young, but there were also risks and difficulties. "Dad is always here. If you encounter any difficulties in the future, remember to come to me."

"Yeah! Thank you, Dad!"

He was still the calm and reliable father in the children's hearts, but at night, he shed tears.

It was the first time Sang Luo saw him cry, or rather, the first time she saw him cry in front of her.

Lan Cang never showed his vulnerability in front of others, especially in front of her, but this time, she was the only one he could confide in.

"Luoluo, I...I can't bear to leave my children..."

It was obviously he who first suggested letting the child go, but he was also the one who was most reluctant to do so.

Sang Luo hugged his head and leaned him in her arms.

"You still have me. The children will leave one day, but I will always be by your side."
