After sorting out the shopping bags, Felicia and Aldrich went to the kitchen to make lunch, to which the family gobbled up happily .
Then the two parents get ready to work. Aldrich work as an instructor in a private Martial arts school, while Felicia work as a clerk in an agricultural company. The two children have to attend their online classes.

Totalling 10 years of compulsory education. Ofcourse they will have to add more years of they want to rise in ranks in their careers and get a masters and doctorate.
The Lu couple won't be back for 10 hours. In the past, to take care of Lili, they often take her with them to their work, where their offices have daycares to facilitate parents who have children.
Now, because Alan is now included in the Lu family, the Lu parents didn't have a choice but to leave Lili behind to keep him company.
It is still too dangerous to always bring Alban outside. Their home security is absolutely safe, and they somehow feel that Lili is safe with Alban. So the Lu parents left the two children with ease.
Alban looked boringly at the lessons he is taking in his communicator, shutting it down.
As an assassin, he is not only taught the skills to kill, but also the skills to blend in the crowd. That means he have to have the skills necessary in everyday life and in society.
So from a very early age, from mathematics, science, technology, language, arts, music, everything that are deemed necessary are taught to him that even now, coupled with his extraordinary memory and IQ, feel that all that he learned was branded into his mind.
He was forced to take the online class due to Mother Lu, saying that it is necessary for him to have an early start in education , believing that Alban was not given a chance to learn.
Lili also shut down her communicator, already finished with doing her homeworks. She is very fast as the lessons are very easy to her, having inherited her father's superior IQ, well, in terms of studies.
Her eyeslashes fluttered as she yawn, her eyes going misty as she groggily climb up the bed. It seems that her morning activities finally managed to catch up to her, making her tired and sleepy. She opened her yes with great effort to look at Alban and said to him while patting the side of the bed.
"Big brother, you sleep too. " Alban expressionlessly got up from the kotatsu, walking towards the bed and naturally getting in, not surprise when Lili rolled to his arms and clinging to him like an octopus.
He is used to it because it always happened. At first he is a little uncomfortable and tried to correct Lili's sleeping posture, to no avail. He can only succumb to his faith of being a big pillow or a big teddy bear for Lili to hold on to while sleeping. Lili is a clingy little girl who like to hug and kiss,learned from her mother.
The little girl's gentle breathing eased, signifying that she had already slipped into dreamland. Her breathing also lulled Alban like a lullaby to sleep, his eyes closing as his breathing deepen.
In just mere seconds , the two children fell asleep. The instant the two fell asleep, the pendants on their chest that was even with red string brighten dazzlingly. It is fortunate that the bedroom window is closed with the curtain covering it, avoiding the possibility of trouble from the extremely bright light.
The pendants shine brightly for an hour, and if you look closely, you can see that the pendanr seem to be integrating with the children's skin, like a tattoo.
By the end of an hour, the light slowly began to weaken, then gradually disappeared. In Lili and Alban's chest center, a very lifelike Yin and Tang tattoo was engraved.
Lili's tattoo was like the blue pendant before, but also not the same. Before, the blue pendants was a crummy dull blue, but now, wavy patterns are engraved into it, and it's color is no longer dull, it is a very beautiful blue that seems to glitter and shine even though it has no glitter particles in it.
The same is true for Alban, his being a breathtaking fiery red with lines that seem to depict lightning flashes in it. In short, their tattoos are very beautiful.
After five hours, Lili was the first one to stir. Blearily blinking her eyes and stretching her limbs. She lay still for another minute, slowly coming out from her haziness.
She then rolled to the other side of the bed,then rolled again to Alban's side doing it again and again, disturbing Alban's sleep.
Alban opened his eyes, looking the rolling dumpling that was Lili, who's now wrapped in her quilt. He reached out his right hand to stop her,putting his hands on her head and rubbing hard, turning Lili's hair in bird nest to show his disatisfacion from being disturbed in his nap.
Lili smiled ingratiatingly at Alban, knowing that his mood is not good because of her antics. But she can't help it, it's so fun!
Lili's stomach grumbled. She tried to get out of the quilt as she is hungry, but the quilt is wrapped tightly around her.
She turned her head at her Big brother, blinking her birth eyes as she tried to act cute and beg help.
"Big brother, please help~ "Lili milkily shouted as her body wiggled like a worm.
Alban's mood improved as he silently looked at the little fay girl wrapped in a cocoon, feeling that she deserved it. It was not when the little girl pleaded many times that he forgave her an drolledher our of the quilt.
He poked her nose, feeling dummy as Lili aggrivedly turned her back at him, showing that she is angry at her big brother for being heartless and letting her suffer.
" Are you angry Lili? Oh, little Lili is angry at Big brother, Big brother is sad~"Alban pretended to be sad.
Lili hummp, knowing that Alban was just teasing her. Big brother is very bad!
Alban poked Lili at the waist, saying" So Lili is not hungry anymore? Lili Is now too angry to be hungry now huh? "
Lili fiercely glared at Alban, widening her eyes as she retorted.
"No! Lili is both angry and hungry!"She stressed the angry and hungry. Alban smiled and patted her head.
"Okay, forgive Big brother, Big brother promise not to do it again okay? "
Lili looked at him with suspicion, and then grabbed his pinky to wound her little pinky around his, triumphantly showing a big smile and said"Its promise!If Big Brother do it again, Big brother is a big fat liar! "
Alban nodded solemnly.
"Hmmp, If Big brother lies, Big brother is a big day liar. "
Lili was satisfied, bouncing up the bed as she urged Alban.
" Let's go eat Big brother , I'm very hungry!"She rubbed her belly gluttonously, stopping as she realized that her pendant is gone.
When the two siblings have hung thermos pendants in their chest with red rope, Lili likes to bounce around to feel the pendant bounce in her chest.
Lili found out that she did not feel the pendant bouncing!
She felt her chest, and not feeling it, she looked around the bed, turning over the quilt as she tried to find the pendant. Alban looked at her unexplainable actions. He ask.
" What are you doing Lili? "
" Big brother, my pendant's gone. " tearfully cried Lili.
"Huh? You lost it? "
"Yeah, look! "
Lili lifted her home dress exposing her tender body and the tattoo in her chest.
"Lili, you have a tattoo?" Alban asked as he looked at the beautiful tattoo.
"Tattoo? "asked Lili as she looked down her chest. She gasped as she said. "But I didn't get a tattoo! "
The two gazed at Lili's tattoo ,looked at each other. Then in sync, reach out to touch the blue pendant tattoo The instant their fingers touch the tattoo, both of them disappeared, leaving an empty quite bedroom.
