Chapter 661 - 691: Mother and Children Are Safe

Shen Yi knew that if Qin Jiao encountered a danger she couldn’t handle, she would definitely take Xiao Shi into the space with her.

That meant she was most likely still in that house.

But a deep sense of unease still filled his heart.

His heart was pounding, and he could barely feel the biting wind. All he wanted was to get to that place as fast as possible.

Only when he saw Jiao Jiao safe and sound could Shen Yi truly be at ease.

The snow melted into water, soaked into his shoes, and then froze into ice again.

Shen Yi didn’t care at all.

He left everyone else far behind, the first to run into the house.

Since it was already dark, Shen Yi fumbled for the switch on the wall. The moment he flipped on the light, he started shouting Qin Jiao’s name at the top of his lungs.

After shouting just a few times, he suddenly saw a piece of white paper drifting down from midair.

Shen Yi immediately grabbed the paper.

It was from Qin Jiao!

Qin Jiao had heard Shen Yi’s voice, but she didn’t have the strength to come out, nor the strength to bring Xiao Shi out. So, she had dictated a note for Xiao Shi to write and then used the last of her energy to send it out of the space.

"Shen Yi, the babies are born. We’re safe for now. Find a way to get us back."

The secret of the space could not be exposed.

And right now, Qin Jiao didn’t have the strength to come out.

But she trusted that Shen Yi would handle everything. This would also give her time to recover her strength before leaving with Xiao Shi and the babies.

Qin Jiao turned her head to look at the two little babies lying beside her, her gaze gentle. Then, exhausted, she fell into a deep sleep.

After confirming that her sister was all right and just extremely tired, Xiao Shi also breathed a sigh of relief.

The young girl, only a teenager, was remarkably calm and composed. She took out the bloody towels and other items, then carefully checked on each of the babies one by one.

Qin Jiao had previously stored many things for babies and pregnant women in the space just in case, so all of it was now coming in handy.

Although there was a lot Xiao Shi didn’t understand—she was still too young, after all—the girl diligently read instruction manuals and books on mother and infant care, cautiously looking after her sister and the two little babies.

Qin Jiao didn’t know how long she had slept. When she woke up, some of her strength had returned. She had only moved slightly, but Xiao Shi, who had been dozing by the bedside, woke up instantly.

"Sis, how are you feeling?" The young girl had barely slept; there were dark circles under her eyes.

Even so, she looked at Qin Jiao with deep concern.

Qin Jiao said softly, "Xiao Shi, you’ve worked so hard. Thank goodness I had you."

’If it had just been me, I don’t know what I would have done.’

’And the babies might have been in danger...’

Xiao Shi quickly replied, "Sis, what are you saying? If you keep being so formal, I’m going to get mad! Besides, I’m really happy I could help you!"

"Well, did watching me give birth scare you? Does it make you not want to have kids in the future?"

Xiao Shi was silent for a moment before the young girl answered honestly, "I was a little scared. There was so much blood. But I was more scared that something would happen to you, Sis, or to your babies. Seeing you all safe now makes me happier than anything!"

"Silly girl. As long as what happened with my delivery didn’t scare you too much."

"It didn’t. Someday, I’ll want to have babies of my own, too."

Hearing this, Qin Jiao was finally relieved. She asked Xiao Shi to help her make some millet porridge with egg. Even though she didn’t have much of an appetite, she knew she had to eat to get her strength back.
