The group toured Peking University in the morning and continued on to visit Jingcheng Affiliated University in the afternoon. The two universities were not far from each other.

Initially, Jingcheng Affiliated University was planned as a branch of Peking University, but for some unknown reason, it became an independent institution. In just five years, it had leaped into the ranks of prestigious universities. Although it couldn't compare to an institution like Peking University, getting into Jingcheng Affiliated University was no easy task.

The original plan was to go out and have some fun, but by the end of the day, all they had done was tour two universities. And they almost got lost, didn't they? Even new students like Chen Miaomiao hadn't finished exploring their own campus yet. When they got lost, they had to rely on the campus maps.

In another week, the National Day holiday would begin. Zhang Yuxi's one-month advanced training would also be over, so she would be heading home with Lin Feng. Afterward, the house in Jingcheng would be left for Lin Jie and the other two to live in.

「In the blink of an eye, a week passed.」

The National Day holiday was bound to be crowded. That was why Lin Feng had bought their plane tickets a week in advance. Trying to buy them on the day of travel... sure enough, there were no seats left. Even the additional flights would only get them home in the wee hours of the morning.

Before leaving, Lin Feng gathered Lin Jie and the others to give them instructions.

"When you leave the house, make sure you close the windows and check that the gas valve is off. Also, make sure the air conditioning is off and the faucets are turned off tightly. Close the doors to the rooms as well..."

Lin Feng told them where everything was, and after he was done, his family departed.

He and Zhang Yuxi took the babies to say goodbye to the aunties downstairs. The daycare still had other children to look after and couldn't be left unattended. The aunties were sad to see the babies go, but after a few warm words, Lin Feng and his family left.

Sisi even said goodbye to her best friend, promising to come back and play with her again. The quadruplets gave their favorite toys to the children they considered their best friends. Of course, the babies didn't do this willingly; it took Lin Feng two nights of convincing.

After a brief moment of melancholy, the babies were full of energy once again.

"Wow, a plane… such a big plane!"

"We're going to ride a plane too… fly up high!"

"Is there a superhero? Can he fly higher than the plane?"

The babies lined up in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows in the waiting area, watching the planes land and chatting amongst themselves.

This time, for takeoff and landing, Lin Feng had cast a "Protection Barrier" on the babies. None of them felt any discomfort at all!

They arrived at Meicheng Airport, where Meng Liang's parents, Chen Jianguo, Lin Dashan, and Zhou Cuilan were waiting to pick them up.

Chen Jianguo hugged his son tightly. "You've lost weight, and you've gotten darker!"

"That's from half a month of military training."

Just as Chen Jianguo was about to say something else, Chen Miaomiao announced, "After the National Day holiday, I'm going to lose weight."

Hearing his son talk about losing weight, Chen Jianguo was the first to object. "Lose weight for what? You're not even fat!"

Chen Miaomiao paid him no mind. After all, he was in university now and wanted to start dating.

Meng Liang's parents pulled their son aside, fussing over him with concern. Meng Liang just smiled and said, "Everything's fine."

With Lin Feng around, Lin Dashan and his wife weren't worried about Lin Jie at all. Aside from being a bit tanner, he didn't seem to have changed much.

「...」

They now had their own home in Meicheng, so Lin Feng headed to their villa in the Mingyue Villa complex.

Upon opening the door, he discovered that the small courtyard had been beautifully tidied up. The yard was paved with a non-toxic rubber running track. Besides the garden, there was also play equipment for the babies. Lin Dashan had bought two full playsets, each with a slide, a small basketball hoop, and swings, so the four babies could play to their hearts' content.

The flowers in the small garden were beautiful, but they attracted mosquitoes. Because of this, Lin Dashan and Zhou Cuilan had also planted some mosquito-repellent plants, like mint.

As soon as the door opened, Big White and Fatty came running over. Big White, in particular, seemed to have gone crazy after not seeing them for a month. Its propeller-like tail spun in a blur as it bounced around joyfully. They hadn't taken the pets with them to Jingcheng, leaving them behind at the villa in Meicheng. Fatty also came over, rubbing against Lin Feng's legs and meowing nonstop.

The babies had slept on the plane, so they were full of energy by the time they left the airport. They were thrilled to see their little companions, Big White and Fatty. The dog, the cat, and the four babies instantly started playing together in a happy jumble.

This was the first time Lin Jie had seen the villa.

"Wow, I love this villa! It's so beautiful!" he exclaimed. "Bro, Sis-in-law, I'm going to go have a look around!"

With that, he scampered upstairs.

Zhou Cuilan said, "I've already bought all the pots and pans for the kitchen and the cooling mats for the master bedroom and four guest bedrooms. You don't need to prepare anything."

Zhang Yuxi thanked Zhou Cuilan for her thoughtfulness.

Zhou Cuilan smiled. "We're all family. There's no need to be so polite."

"I also stocked the fridge for you with fruit, chicken, duck, fish, and meat," she continued. "I also made wontons for everyone. The tiny ones for the babies are in the fridge too."

They had eaten lunch before they left Jingcheng, and it was now just past five o'clock. The weather in Meicheng wasn't as hot, and it was even cooler in the Mingyue Villa complex. Zhou Cuilan went to the kitchen to cook the wontons, and in less than half an hour, they were ready to eat.

The wontons were tiny, the perfect size for the babies to eat in just two bites. Zhou Cuilan had made them with a tender and savory shrimp filling. After letting them cool, she called the babies over to eat.

"Don't rush! Blow on it first, let it cool down before you eat!" Fearing they might burn themselves, Zhou Cuilan watched them closely.

Lin Feng, Zhang Yuxi, and Lin Jie ate in the dining room. Zhou Cuilan's wontons came in various flavors, and trying each one felt like discovering a little treasure.

Lin Feng asked, "Dad, Mom, are you planning to go anywhere for the National Day holiday?"

Zhou Cuilan shook her head. "We're not going out. It's the peak travel season, so all you'll see are crowds and queues. I'd rather stay home, watch TV, and enjoy the air conditioning. To use you young people's words, isn't that much nicer?"

Lin Dashan chuckled. "Exactly. I was watching the news today, and you should see the lines at the tourist spots. As they say, 'two hours of queuing for two minutes of viewing.' I don't want to go through that kind of suffering. And with the kids, it would be even more exhausting for you to travel during the holiday."

Zhou Cuilan added, "If you two want to go out and have some fun, go ahead. I can watch the children for you."

Lin Feng glanced at Zhang Yuxi.

She shook her head. "I just want to stay home and have a few quiet days. I don't feel like going anywhere."

Lin Feng felt the same. It would be hot and crowded if they went out. It was much cooler and more comfortable at home. When the weather was better, they could always take the babies out for a stroll then.
