Transmigration: I Have Storage Space in the Apocalypse novel Chapter 416

Chapter 416: Chapter 411 The Dragon and Phoenix Twins’ Troublesome Crying Incident

——————

Zhou Xiuhua felt heartbroken seeing that the twins hadn’t drunk a single sip of the milk formula, crying themselves to sleep out of hunger.

Jiang Xiaoying was young and healthy, and after carrying and soothing a baby for over an hour, she was tired too, and it seemed to her that Aunt Xie, though also tired, was faring better than she did!

This was entirely Jiang Xiaoying’s misconception.

Jiang Xiaoying was holding Xiao Shi, who was greedy and always had to drink milk until she burped with fullness, and therefore, she weighed about two pounds more than Xiaojiu. In terms of temperament, Xiao Shi was much more delicate than Xiaojiu, who loved to cry even at the mere absence of her father. Now that even their mother wasn’t around, her crying was so intense it seemed as if she was going to rip the heavens apart!

Jiang Xiaoying couldn’t stand Xiao Shi crying like this, her heart aching as she paced back and forth to soothe her, finally calming her enough so she didn’t feel like she was tearing her throat.

Xiaojiu, although younger, had a better disposition than Xiao Shi. Seeing his sister crying non-stop and their mother still not appearing, he just sobbed tremblingly, his demeanor much more gentle than Xiao Shi’s. Even when he realized that his grandma was just sitting and holding him, he didn’t fuss or cry pettily, which made Zhou Xiuhua still manageable to handle.

But Jiang Xiaoying didn’t know this. Her mind was wholly captivated by the twins’ crying and fussing, and now she felt utterly useless, not daring to rest. She busied herself again, carefully tending to the twins’ hygiene, and when she was about to wash their urine-soaked clothes, she found that they were already cleaned.

Xie Jingzi had taken the initiative without being asked, starting the work early.

And you think that’s the end of it?

Uh, if Yan Jinsu had come back, the twins would certainly have been able to settle down.

But at that time, Yan Jinsu and Xie Jingchen had just been rescued in time by Hu Zhengjie and others. Both husband and wife were incapacitated, unable to move or speak. Thankfully, Yan Jinchang wasn’t entirely foolish and sent Little Rong to report safety to the Xie Family.

However, that said, the message of safety was delivered, but the Xie Family were still up all night taking care of the babies, with hearts filled with concern for how Xie Jingchen and Yan Jinsu, the couple, were doing outside.

It was the first time the twins had experienced both their parents missing, and they cried until after midnight before finally falling asleep. They slept only until 1:30 before waking up ’hungry.’ Regardless of whether it was Jiang Xiaoying or Zhou Xiuhua, even Mr. Xie had to step in, but the twins couldn’t manage to drink a single sip of milk, and even the warm water they were given was vomited out.

Xiao Shi cried miserably, and Xiaojiu also felt wronged, both of them continuing to sob quietly.

After crying until their voices were hoarse and inaudible, they whimpered and sobbed pathetically until three o’clock before once again falling asleep out of fatigue and hunger...

But they didn’t sleep for a full hour. Before four o’clock, Xiao Shi, not sleeping deeply, woke up crying loudly, especially as there was still no scent of mom and dad, making her cries even more heartbreakingly sad. Xiaojiu woke up at the sound of her third cry, instinctively feeling for their parents too, but still finding nothing, nothing, nothing.

At this point, Xiaojiu was truly heartbroken, crying louder and more intensely than Xiao Shi, continuing the tantrum until five in the morning without stopping.

With non-stop wails, their voices became completely hoarse. During this period, aside from being force-fed a bit of warm water by Zhou Xiuhua, the twins had eaten nothing.

Meanwhile, after Yan Jinsu was able to move, and while waiting for her husband’s surgery to finish, she had already expressed milk for herself three times.

Yan Jinsu, fearing her milk might taste different despite having antibodies in her body, hardened her heart and did not go home to tend to the babies. Only after confirming her husband was safe and secretly feeding him Spirit Core Liquid, ensuring his body had no serious issues, did she finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Right then, Hu Zhengjie came knocking, reporting an emergency.
