"What are you thinking about? I just feel life is short and want to do more good deeds." Xu Mumu smiled and said, without saying much, anyway, there was no plan to leave now.
"Definitely not, you must have encountered something, otherwise, over the past two years, you and your husband wouldn’t have turned into philanthropists." Yu Xinyao had a look on her face suggesting Xu Mumu and her husband were definitely up to something. They had indeed been unusually generous over the past two years.
"No way, we’ve made more money, okay?" Xu Mumu said helplessly. What she said was true; although they did give away a lot, they had actually earned more.
In recent years, not only were there subsidies for what they did, but their goodwill acts also greatly enhanced their reputation, bringing many intangible benefits besides making money.
Seeing Xu Mumu unwilling to say more, Yu Xinyao didn’t press further.
On the other side, Huo Qingze was also quite curious about what Yin Yang and his family were trying to achieve with their actions. Although their reputation had improved and they made more money, they’d given away a lot too. He knew Yin Yang was definitely someone who loved money.
"Why are you asking?" Yin Yang raised his eyebrows.
"Can’t I just ask? I’m just curious; your three boys, with you two messing around like this, what can you leave for Doudou and the others in the future?" Huo Qingze said with a smile.
"If it really runs out, let them start their own business. My sons won’t live poorly no matter what. If they can’t make a living, I’ll break their legs, just losing face for me." Yin Yang was rather calm.
Now, not only did he have to work, but he was also preparing to follow Xu Mumu to that world. In the apocalypse, the most important things are food and water. Since he didn’t know when they’d travel, he needed to have some skills.
He also needed to train his body further, to make himself stronger. Just in case he couldn’t awaken a superpower, his little wife said, the chance of awakening a superpower was less than ten percent. It really wasn’t a big chance, and he didn’t dare to count on luck.
"Wow, you’re ruthless, huh? You still haven’t told me why you’re doing all this, you’re not someone who cares about fame." Huo Qingze laughed.
"Who says I’m not? I care a lot, look, wherever I go now, even government officials are respectful to me." Yin Yang curved his lips.
"Keep making things up." Huo Qingze twitched his mouth. It was indeed true; wherever Yin Yang went, no one dared not to treat him with respect.
"Just don’t worry about it." Yin Yang, looking at Huo Qingze, knew this guy wouldn’t be easy to brush off, but there was no way he could disclose those things.
"I’m just curious, what’s so hard to say?" The less Yin Yang spoke, the more curious Huo Qingze became.
Yin Yang rolled his eyes. When did this guy become so annoying?
"Are you so idle every day?" Yin Yang didn’t even want to bother with him anymore.
"Not really, now I have a lot of free time, I can take my wife and kids to play around." Huo Qingze said with a laugh. He was very satisfied with his current life.
"Then take your wife and kids around, why come to bother me?"
"I’m just curious, alright?"
No longer interested in paying him any mind, Yin Yang went back to his own business. Now, his wife’s Jade Pendant only had a faint green color. Fully charging it was incredibly difficult, and with twenty years, he didn’t even know if it could be done.
But he had to do it, couldn’t wait any longer, had to fully charge it, a long and arduous task.
Huo Qingze watched from the side, not knowing what Yin Yang was thinking, just seeing him suddenly brimming with energy.
Huo Qingze didn’t want to talk anymore, was it really okay to always work at such high intensity? Wasn’t he afraid of breaking down his health? What were this couple thinking?
The world was getting better day by day. The Reincarnation Jade in Xu Mumu’s hand gradually deepened in color, and Xu Mumu recorded every event that caused significant color change.
Mainly it was during natural disasters; several times of drought, flood, and snow disaster, here Yin Yang actively contributed to disaster relief, and each time it deepened several shades of the Jade Pendant.
Xu Mumu was aware in her heart, not only ensuring current progress but every time a disaster occurred anywhere, the couple was always the first to act, the first to offer disaster relief.
Not only did they react quickly to domestic disasters, but even for those happening abroad, as long as it wasn’t an enemy country, they would lend a helping hand as much as they could.
These efforts brought many benefits. Anyway, the color of the Jade Pendant changed quite fast, which made the couple very motivated.
The color of the Jade Pendant deepens day by day, and Xu Mumu’s health also begins to deteriorate. If it weren’t for the protection of the Jade Pendant, she felt she could leave this body at any moment.
The color of the Jade Pendant hadn’t reached deep purple yet, so Xu Mumu didn’t dare to act impulsively.
The three children had grown up. Xu Mumu sent Doudou to the university gate, and the whole family watched him go in, then went to enroll the two younger ones.
"Mom, are you really okay?" Xu Mumu’s face looked a bit pale now, making Congcong extremely worried.
"I’m fine, what could be wrong? Don’t worry." Xu Mumu rubbed the child’s head. Congcong and Ruirui were already ten years old, not too young, but she had a gut feeling that her time was running short.
"That’s not true, I feel you’re not well at all." Little Ruirui pouted and looked at his mom unhappily. He always felt his parents had significant things they hadn’t told them.
"I’m really fine, let’s go, we’re going to your grandma’s now." Xu Mumu said with a headache. Having too smart of children was also difficult, as these two kids had very keen intuitions. It wasn’t easy to coax these little guys.
The Xu family’s old couple’s health was deteriorating, getting too old, the days when they were younger weren’t good, and their health wasn’t great either.
Thinking that grandma and grandpa might leave soon, Xu Mumu felt quite sad inside. Over the years, even Professor Song’s health was declining. She just wanted to persist until she sent them away, then she’d be at ease to go to another world.
Currently, Xu Mumu was very cautious with her emotions, keeping herself from having major mood swings, as mishandling it could be fatal.
"Mom, I feel that the older generation’s health is worsening, they won’t hold out much longer." Ruirui’s voice was a bit low. Over the years, both sets of grandparents had pampered them greatly; if they were going to pass away, they understood, and it would be heartbreaking.
"I know." Xu Mumu pursed her lips, her mood also heavy.
Old Xu and Madam Chen’s health was the worst, and now that it was cold, sometimes they couldn’t even get out of bed.
Thinking of this, Xu Mumu felt even more pained. Having been in this world for so long, apart from her parents, grandpa and grandma treated her the best. How could she bear to let them go?
