Chapter 715: Chapter 713: One More Makes No Difference, One Less Makes No Difference
“That chip is a key. But what kind of key, I don’t remember.”
“Key…” Sally touched Little Fengning’s head and then patted his chest, “This holds your mother’s heart, so protect it well~”
“I will!” Little Fengning nodded vigorously.
Sally smiled, “Alright, Little Fengning, go back and continue eating your meal, eat more to grow quickly.”
“Mm! Mother… Bai Ren isn’t bad,” Little Fengning told Sally.
Sally nodded, “Mother knows.”
After Little Fengning returned to the System Space, Sally looked at Xiaoqi, “Do you think he’s a bad person?”
“A bad person… Xiaoqi can’t tell; he’s just a mist in Xiaoqi’s eyes,” Xiaoqi replied, “Did he do something?”
“Bai Ren is him. Little Beibei’s Talent System was written by him,” Sally responded.
“Oh~” Xiaoqi’s eyes widened, “Mother! Take him down!”
Sally was speechless: “…give me a reason first.”
Xiaoqi replied, “He’s powerful.”
“Huh? Powerful, and Mother should take him down?”
“He’s obviously infatuated with Mother, the unrequited kind. Mother just needs to look down and crook her finger, and she could take him down. Xiaoqi would be happy to see more people protecting Mother.”
“With your Father Emperor and the rest, Mother is very safe.”
“No,” Xiaoqi shook his head, “Mother is too special. The Father Emperor once said, a very important reason he agreed for Mother to be with Uncle Qing and the others is their strong talents and strength.”
“Hehe, your Father Emperor thinks too much,” Sally caressed Xiaoqi’s sleek fur, “Mother doesn’t need it.”
Xiaoqi comfortably squinted her turquoise eyes, “Mother should reconsider. Other than Ancestor Heng, and that person from the Ancestral Dragon Tomb, he’s the only one who Xiaoqi can’t see through.”
“…If your dad knew, he’d say you’re biting the hand that feeds you, hehe~” Sally couldn’t help but chuckle.
Xiaoqi nodded, “It’s okay, he won’t mind. Besides, minding it won’t help, Mother has so many Beast Husbands already, one more doesn’t make a difference, one less doesn’t lessen them. We can get an extra gift during the holidays.”
“…Little money-grubber.” Sally flicked her rounded ear lightly.
Xiaoqi lay down on her soft chest, “Xiaoqi wants to sleep here for a bit.”
“Sleep, then,” Sally said with a smile.
It seems that Xiao Tiantian noticed this the last time she came out and talked about it with Xiaoqi and the rest afterward. She even made a special request for Xiaoqi to tell her that she could take down Yan Ze. It seems that the children also agreed.
‘Bang~’ A glass window was struck.
Sally looked over.
It had started raining outside, unbeknownst to her.
The soundproofing in the room was good, so she hadn’t heard the rain.
The downpour was now severe, mixed with hailstones as big as ping-pong balls…
“These giant ice chunks could knock someone silly if they went outside,” Sally said as she held Xiaoqi and got up to open the window.
A soft barrier blocked the window, not allowing any wind or rain to disturb her.
“Mother, carrying a little baby, should be careful with her health,” Xiaoqi, who had activated the barrier, said.
Sally kissed her, “It’s okay, Mother is strongest when she’s pregnant.”
“That’s not Mother’s strength, that’s Aunt Xiaomei. Mother’s complexion isn’t that great.” Xiaoqi looked at her with worried and caring eyes.
Sally nodded, “Thank you, darling; Mother will take care. Will it be nerve-wracking to do the live streaming tomorrow?”
“Hehe~ Xiaoqi can finally be a hostess!” Xiaoqi waggled her tail excitedly.
Sally: “…”
She had almost forgotten, Xiaoqi had her phase of being a ‘second stage’ hostess, performing dramas daily.
Zi Qi indeed suffered from her pranks, unable to decide whether to laugh or cry.
Now, this was right up her alley, and who knows what might happen tomorrow.
‘Knock, knock~’ Someone knocked on the door.
Sally said, “Please come in.”
Nian Fang came in, holding a makeup case.
Sally patted Xiaoqi.
Xiaoqi understood and turned into a little white cat.
“Got some work?” Sally looked at the makeup case.
Nian Fang replied, “We have a livestream tonight of the guests having dinner, it should last about an hour.”
Sally nodded, “Mhm.”
Nian Fang looked at Xiaoqi, especially at her eyes, and said in surprise, “Did Xiao Mumu also have blue eyes before?”
“Yes,” Sally replied.
Nian Fang didn’t pay it much mind and began preparing to do Sally’s makeup, “Sister Su, I noticed you looked a bit pale when you came back today, which might affect your appearance on camera later, so I came to apply some light makeup on you.”
“Sure,” Sally nodded.
If it were just Little Angel, she’d have no issues whatsoever with triplets. However, with Yan Ze’s child, as the fetus grew, she found herself increasingly strained, much like with Little Dot and Little Fengning before, feeling a certain fatigue, as if all the vitality had been drained from her body.
This child’s pregnancy, as Aunt Xiaomei had told her before, would require twelve months. It didn’t sound very long, but she was already feeling tired just after conceiving, even after consuming a lot of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures… She had no idea what she would give birth to.
Sally sat in front of the makeup mirror and gradually grew drowsy, closing her eyes for a little nap.
Soon, she heard Nian Fang calling her, “Sister Su, you’re all set.”
Sally opened her eyes and saw the transformed reflection in the mirror, a face radiant and charming, and she smiled, “Fangfang’s makeup skills are simply too good.”
“Sister Su, you naturally have good complexion. My humble skills are but gilding the lily, but now it seems I’ve been of some use,” Nian Fang responded.
“Turning decay into a miracle,” Sally said with a laugh.
“You flatter me too much, Sister Su; it’s only because you have such a good foundation,” Nian Fang then opened another small safe, which contained a set of jewelry. “This was sent by a sponsor for Sister Su. As long as you wear it during the livestream, it’s yours to keep.”
“Really?” Sally picked up a sapphire necklace and saw Xiaoqi’s eyes light up. She smiled and said, “I’ll give it to you after the livestream is over.”
“Meow~” Xiaoqi squinted her eyes delightedly.
…
The livestream featured the guests enjoying a hotpot meal.
Sally looked at the rich assortment of ingredients, hugging Xiaoqi as they sat down on a lounge chair with her name on it.
Xiaoqi swished her fluffy tail, eyeing He Cheng. 𝔫𝖔𝖛𝖕𝔲𝔟.𝔠𝖔𝖒
He Cheng felt as though he had been seen through, “Um, does Xiao Mumu want to come over here?”
“Meow—” Xiaoqi responded.
He Cheng solemnly placed a soft cushion beside himself.
With a graceful leap, Xiaoqi landed on the cushion, “Meow~”
He Cheng immediately presented a box of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures ‘tribute,’ “Please enjoy!”
“Meow~” Xiaoqi happily began to feast.
Yan Ze arrived, holding a gift bag in his hand.
Sally picked up a longan from the fruit tray and leisurely peeled it, as if she hadn’t seen Yan Ze at all.
Yan Ze sat down beside her and handed her the gift bag, “This is for you.”
“Thanks, Brother Yan. Come on, sit down and join the hotpot, it smells really good,” Sally revealed a surprised smile on her face.
Xiaoqi gazed at her mother… Mom was faking a smile!
Did Mother not like Bai Ren?
But why did Little Fengning say that Bai Ren was very important to Mother?
