Chapter 499 Extra: The Story of Two Dads Hatching Eggs (2)

For the first three years after Qiao Qiao transformed into a dragon egg, her consciousness remained in a state of chaos. Most of the time, the entire egg was in a state of dormancy, and she did not react to anything or anyone in the outside world.

Of course, this applies to anything and anyone, except for its beloved older brother Pei Yiyang.

After Pei Yiyang took it away last time, it stayed at the Pei family for about twelve days and eighteen hours before being taken back by the two fathers who were so worried about their daughter that they were getting depression.

The dragon egg, which showed no reaction to anything else, only emitted a white light from the tip of its shell when it was facing Pei Yiyang; this was its reaction to the outside world.

As a result, the two fathers almost drowned in vinegar.

Let alone Qiao Changdong, even Shen Qingyan, who is considered mature and steady by most people, looked at Pei Yiyang with disdain.

After being taken back to the castle by its two fathers, Qiao Qiao hibernated for about a month and a half. Then, its active period, which was originally only at night, began to occasionally start during the day.

It took about a month to go from one hour during the day to six hours in the evening.

At this time, the dragon egg was already over three years old.

Dragon eggs with better potential will begin to show some self-awareness at this stage. If you talk to them about topics that interest them, they will shake their shells in response.

The first time the dragon egg responded to everyone was when Qiao Changdong brought back a very large black thing from outside.

By this time, Dongqiao Hotels had expanded throughout the country and become a chain hotel.

Although Qiao Changdong hired professionals to manage the business, he still had to spend a small portion of his time each year traveling around the country to inspect the facilities.

When Qiao Qiao was still in human form, he could carry people around in his arms.

However, Qiao Qiao has transformed into a human egg. Even though Long Yijun has stated more than once that the egg she laid is incredibly sturdy, and Qiao Qiao herself has spiritual power protecting her, she may face danger at all times in the cultivation world, but in this world, no one can harm her.

But the two fathers still dared not be careless. They were always very careful when carrying the egg, for fear that it would break if they accidentally dropped it on the ground, or that if they held it in their arms too tightly, the shell would crack.

In short, the two fathers did not believe that their dragon egg was indestructible, and treated it like a fragile piece of glass.

Not to mention taking it around everywhere. When Qiao Changdong carried it to the living room to listen to TV, he didn't dare to walk too fast.

However, since he couldn't take the dragon egg with him, it was destined that Qiao Changdong would miss his daughter terribly when he was away.

“Sweetie, look at this! This is called a mobile phone. You can make calls without a phone line. Daddy can call you even when he’s out or in the car!” Qiao Changdong said happily as he squatted down in front of the dragon egg.

Then Qiao Changdong watched as the egg tip emitted a faint white light.

Then, the large device in his hand started clicking.

After dialing the six-digit number, a beeping sound came from the system. Less than three seconds later, the call was connected, and Pei Yiyang's voice came through!

"..." Qiao Changdong.

Qiao Changdong fell into a deep silence.

I thought to myself, "Did I present this mobile phone to you so you could call this brat?!"

Qiao Changdong was furious, but he didn't dare to vent his anger on Qiao Qiao.

He could only say to Pei Yiyang, who seemed somewhat puzzled on the other end of the phone, "It's me, your Uncle Qiao."

"Oh, it's Uncle Qiao! Is this your new number? How is Qiao Qiao? Mom just came back from Hongfeng Town yesterday and said she wanted to come and see Qiao Qiao. Uncle Qiao, would you like me to go pick up Qiao Qiao, or should Mom and I come over?"

Pei Yiyang's voice is very pleasant, carrying the youthful spirit unique to his age.

Especially after Fu Tianyou, who caused his heart problems in his previous life, vanished into thin air, his health improved day by day.

His voice no longer carried the weakness that seemed to emanate from his very bones; instead, it became powerful, brimming with the vigor of someone his age.

Hearing this sound will generally make most people feel better without them even realizing it.

But Qiao Changdong only felt depressed, extremely depressed.

He was so annoyed that he rolled his eyes several times, completely disregarding his image.

He said irritably into the phone, "It's up to you guys. I have something to do, so I'm hanging up now!"

After saying that, Qiao Changdong hung up the phone without waiting for Pei Yiyang's reaction.

And then—

Qiao Changdong was then hit by the dragon egg.

Yes, that's right, the back of Qiao Changdong's hand was hit by the dragon egg when he pressed the hang-up button.

Although the force wasn't great, Qiao Changdong was so frightened by the sight of the dragon egg jumping off the bed, landing on the ground, and bouncing up like a ping-pong ball to hit the back of his hand that he dropped his newly bought mobile phone.

"My darling!" Qiao Changdong wasn't angry at being hit. Instead, he anxiously picked up the dragon egg and looked it over. When he saw no signs of cracking, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Dragon Egg was clearly a little unhappy after being hung up on.

Even if it's just an egg!

Qiao Changdong noticed this from the faint black aura emanating from its body.

He felt wronged, hurt, and unreasonable: "Sweetie, don't you love Daddy anymore? You smashed Daddy for some kid outside, so it seems you really hate Daddy."

As Qiao Changdong spoke, he lowered his head, looking very forlorn, and put the dragon egg back in its nest before turning to leave.

Dragon Egg tilted his upper body slightly, as if trying to see if he was really sad.

Seeing that Qiao Changdong seemed genuinely heartbroken, the dragon egg hopped off the bed and bounced over to him, landing on his shoulder and rubbing its smooth shell against his cheek.

It's as if it's saying: Daddy, don't be sad, your sweetheart loves you the most.

It was after this incident that the dragon egg's consciousness truly awakened.

The dragon egg was a very special thing, so Yan Liti had to give all the servants in the house a strict order: no one was allowed to approach the main building!

If discovered, all wages for that month will be deducted.

For the servants, working at the castle is like a dream job, as it not only provides room and board, but also high wages, good benefits, and even medical care.

Occasionally, employers would give them some returned items, which would be equivalent to six months to a year's salary. It's probably impossible to find a better job in the world.

Therefore, they obeyed Yan Liti's orders.

Naturally, no one noticed that there was a castle in Kyoto, and inside the castle was an egg that was jumping around and being incredibly mischievous every day.
