Chapter 2 Little Peach Blossom's Parents

When the couple arrived home, their second son's room was quite "lively." The couple was used to it and didn't care about other people's affections, since it was their private matter.

Yin Qing and his wife quickly washed up with hot water and went to bed. As for the sleeping Xiao Taohua, they placed the child in the middle, so that if she developed a fever or anything else during the night, they would take her to the hospital immediately.

Fortunately, the night passed peacefully, but Little Peach Blossom was still woken up by hunger the next day.

"My sweet baby's awake? Are you hungry? How about we eat something first?"

Three questions came in a row, but Little Peach Blossom didn't pay attention to what others were saying; all her attention was focused on the chicken cake in front of her mouth.

She licked her lips, subconsciously opened her mouth, and took a big bite. Mmm, delicious, so delicious! She had never eaten anything so delicious before. Was this the human food that Grandpa Ginseng had mentioned?

She can!

"Eat slowly, don't choke. There's hot water here, have a sip first."

"Awoo, awoo..."

Yin Qing watched as Xiao Taohua ate her food with relish, a loving smile spreading across her face.

This doll looks so cute, I want to pet it.

Not to mention Yin Qing, even a grown man like Lin Guangsheng found Xiao Taohua adorable and thought it was really great to have such a daughter.

After eating and drinking her fill, Little Peach Blossom felt completely alive again—no, no, she's human now—as if all her previous weakness had vanished!

With her innocent, big eyes wide open, Little Peach Blossom finally began to face reality: "Are you Little Peach Blossom's mom and dad?"

Yes, that's right. Little Peach Blossom has no memories of what happened before she took this body.

Even though she had just woken up yesterday in such a snowy and icy place, she didn't feel anything was wrong, because in the dead of winter, Little Peach Blossom, being a peach blossom fairy, was always asleep, and when she occasionally woke up, she was just a fairy.

This time was different; without her demonic powers, she had become a human.

Heavenly Father said this was her tribulation; once she overcame it, she would become an immortal. As humans, everyone has parents, so Little Peach Blossom felt that the two people in front of her must be her parents, because she could feel their kindness and love.

Upon hearing Xiao Taohua's question, Yin Qing and Lin Guangsheng exchanged a glance before affirming, "Yes, we are your mom and dad!"

Little Peach Blossom smiled, her eyes crinkling with laughter: "Hello, Mom and Dad, I'm Little Peach Blossom, I'm a..." She stopped abruptly, covering her mouth before uttering the words "Peach Blossom Demon." Her Heavenly Father had told her not to reveal that she was a demon, and besides, she was human now—a three-year-old!

She's so young! She's 300 years old! Little Peach Blossom was a little disgusted.

"Oh, it's Little Peach Blossom. Hello, Little Peach Blossom." Yin Qing smiled and patted Little Peach Blossom's head.

"Hello, Mom. I'm sorry, Mom. Little Peach Blossom doesn't remember the past." She didn't remember anything from before, so she felt very sorry for her mother.

"It's alright, little peach blossom, we'll have many memories together in the future," Yin Qing comforted gently, but her gaze at Lin Guangsheng still held a deep sense of worry.

When they first found Little Peach Blossom, they noticed her thin clothes. Not only her clothes, but the surrounding snow indicated that she had been left there for an unknown amount of time. Perhaps the child was lucky, or perhaps for some other reason, she wasn't covered in snow, but one thing was certain: she had been abandoned there for a very, very long time.

Little Peach Blossom had no memory, and the two were not surprised to learn this. Or rather, their surprise was only momentary, followed entirely by worry.

Before Xiao Taohua opened her eyes, Lin Guangsheng and his wife had already taken her to the hospital to see a doctor. After the examination, the doctor found nothing wrong with the child; she was a very healthy and well-behaved baby, just a little thin. Given that Lin Guangsheng and his wife said the child was found in the snow, the doctor said there might be some aftereffects, but that would only be known when the child woke up.

Continuing to wait at the hospital wasn't a solution, and they couldn't bear to wake their child, so the couple simply took her home. Now that Xiao Taohua has woken up, she says she has no memory of the child, and the couple thinks this is probably what is known as a sequela.

Since they had decided to adopt Xiao Taohua, and Xiao Taohua had no memory of the past, the couple didn't want to say anything unpleasant and decided to treat Xiao Taohua as their daughter forever.

"Mommy, you're so good to me, I love you so much." Little Peach Blossom not only said that, but also affectionately rubbed against Yin Qing's face, making Yin Qing's heart melt—she truly is a sweet little girl, so considerate.

Lin Guangsheng watched with envy, but he managed to keep his composure. He coughed and looked at Xiao Taohua, saying, "Xiao Taohua, your full name is Lin Xiaotao. I am Lin Guangsheng, your father. This is Yin Qing, your mother. Got it?"

"Lin Guangsheng, Dad, you've got it!"

The little girl called out "Daddy" in her clear voice, and Lin Guangsheng couldn't escape it either. The wrinkles on his face turned into folds when he smiled: "Hey, my little peach blossom has such a good memory."

Little Peach Blossom was praised and giggled nonstop, then looked at Yin Qing: "Yin Qing, Mom!"

"Yes, our little peach blossom is so smart."

"If Mom and Dad are smart, then Little Peach Blossom is smart too."

The couple's hearts melted at the sight of their daughter; she was so well-behaved and adorable.

"Little Peach Blossom, have some more."

"Mmm, this is delicious, it's sweet."

"If you like it, Mom will buy it for you every day from now on."

"I love my mom the most."

"And what about Dad?" Lin Guangsheng couldn't help but ask.

"I love Daddy the most too, Mommy and Daddy are my favorites!" Little Peach Blossom had only ever heard of other demons having parents before, this was the first time she had one. As for Heavenly Dao Daddy, Little Peach Blossom wasn't stupid, she was sure that Heavenly Dao Daddy wasn't her biological father, at least that's what she thought.

Father of Heaven: My son has broken my heart, but I will still treat him with the same love I had in the beginning...

"You little rascal," Lin Guangsheng couldn't help but laugh.

Little Peach Blossom squinted her eyes and smiled along.

It's so nice to have mom and dad; she loves them the most.

Even the old father, Tiandao, who had been worrying about Xiaotaohua all along, couldn't help but wipe away the tears from the corners of his eyes. His daughter was becoming more and more considerate. He was so reluctant to leave his daughter, but he had no choice. He had to go back to his original world to protect her. Otherwise, if the Heavenly Dao collapsed, no one would have a good ending.

But before leaving, he still had a proper discussion with the Heavenly Dao of this realm. Unfortunately, he was kicked back to his hometown by the Heavenly Dao of this realm as soon as he was about to speak, and was also given the words: "Do you need to explain my own granddaughter? Get lost! You troublesome son of a bitch!"

The family looked so happy that anyone who didn't know the truth would probably say, "They must be a happy family of three."

But those who know the truth...

Lin Guangyi and his wife, the second son and his wife, had just returned from outside when they saw their eldest brother and sister-in-law surrounding a little girl. They were both stunned: "Brother, where did this child come from?"
