Qiao You quietly raised her hand to touch her ear, softly hummed in agreement, and her eyes darted around.

Su Sang, who was walking at the front, suddenly stopped and looked at Qiao You, "Youyou, how do you want to eat this rabbit?"

Su Yinchen looked at his father as if he had seen a ghost. When did this old man learn to speak in a high-pitched voice?

For some reason, Qiao You opened his arms to Su Sang.

Su Sang was flattered and surprised. This... this meant he should hug her?

Unsure, she tentatively asked, "Uncle, can I hug you?"

Qiao You nodded firmly, but only he knew that he was actually a little guilty...

What her brother just said made her ears burn again.

Was it because his clothes were too thick? He was so hot! His brother's embrace was hot too, and he... inexplicably wanted to hide away.

Held in Su Sang's arms, oh! It's not hot anymore!

Qiao You secretly turned her head to look at her brother, but her brother caught her red-handed as soon as she turned her head.

"Youyou, what's wrong?"

Caught red-handed by his brother, Qiao You turned around guiltily, but his movements were too exaggerated and he was seen by his uncle as well.

Qiao You obediently shook her head, "It's nothing."

Su Sang, who was over six feet tall, spoke in a high-pitched voice, which gave Su Yinchen goosebumps. He dared not express his opinion, unless he really didn't want to live anymore...

For the rest of the morning, Qiao You stayed in Su Sang's arms and didn't make a fuss about looking for her brother.

Su Sang was overjoyed and spoke softly the whole way, even using reduplicated words.

Su Yinchen didn't want to come in the morning. His father already had a problem with him and really didn't want to hang around in front of him. But Xiaxia insisted on going out to play together, so he had no choice but to go along.

But now, he feels like he really made a profit on this trip!

Leaving aside his father's worthless appearance, the most important thing is that he was humiliated when he met Helian Jue.

A lone figure, hands tucked into his pockets, looked forlorn and followed behind the group.

But Su Yinchen is just a person who can't resist showing off in front of others.

"What's wrong? Did you make someone angry?" Su Yinchen held Su Xia in her arms, trying to keep her tone calm, but she couldn't control her expression and couldn't pretend at all.

Upon hearing Su Yinchen's reckless words, Su Xia quickly covered her mouth with her hand and glared at him, saying, "Don't talk nonsense."

Helian Jue looked up and gave Su Yinchen a cold glance, then left without saying a word.

Su Xia released her hand from Su Yinchen's mouth and scolded, "Can you stop being so irresponsible?"

"His Highness was already in a bad mood, and you just had to come up to him."

"Are you just offering yourself up for nothing?" Su Xia said with exasperation. "His Highness treats you like it's nothing."

Su Yinchen was displeased. "Xiaxia, how can you boost others' morale and diminish my own?"

“I’m telling the truth,” Su Xia said expressionlessly.

Neither the man nor the fish was willing to back down.

Su Yinchen stiffened her neck and silently sulked at Su Xia.

After five years of getting along, Su Xia's personality was completely shaped by Su Yinchen; she wouldn't easily back down.

"Hmph!" Su Xia was furious. Su Yinchen kept his neck stiff, clearly not wanting to be near him.

Su Xia, who had always been pampered and cherished by Su Yinchen, felt extremely wronged. In the blink of an eye, tears streamed down her face. She didn't make a sound, wiping away her tears as she cried.

Su Yinchen was also caught up in her emotions at the moment and didn't try to comfort her immediately.

After spending the morning wandering in the woods behind the mountain, Su Sang hadn't found anything except the rabbit she caught at the beginning. She kept playing with the little mermaid in her arms, but she did collect a lot of pine cones.

"Let's go back." Su Sang checked the time; it was almost lunchtime.

Qiao You seized the opportunity and said, "Uncle, Youyou is too heavy. I'll go to my brother's place and let you rest for a while."

“Youyou really cares about your uncle.” Su Sang was overjoyed, even though she knew that Youyou was thinking of her brother rather than caring about him, but that didn’t stop her from being happy.

Su Sang handed Qiao You to Helian Jue. Xiao Yu blushed and scratched her brother's palm shyly, looking up at him expectantly.

"What's wrong? Does Xiaoyu not want her brother to hold her?" Helian Jue naturally knew what Qiao You meant and asked deliberately.

Qiao You shook her head and whispered, "Brother, okay!"

Helian Jue was very happy at this moment. Perhaps his little fish had finally figured things out?

He's not in a hurry; he'll wait patiently, forever waiting for the little fish.

Su Sang's arms were empty. She glanced at the people around her and thought, "Tsk, where is that unfilial son, Su Yinchen?"

After looking around, I finally spotted Su Yinchen and Xia Xia in his arms at the very back of the line.

But Xiaxia is wiping away tears? The movement was small, but she was definitely wiping away tears.

"Su Yinchen, get over here."

Suppressing his anger, Su Sang said in a deep voice.

The Su family has always been a polite, simple, and kind family, and they do not tolerate any behavior that bullies spirit pets.

In Su Sang's view, the spirit pets gave up their freedom to live alongside them, and by comparison, the spirit pets made a greater sacrifice.

What good are fine clothes and exquisite food compared to freedom? They are utterly incomparable to freedom.

And that's the only way they can make up for it; the spirit pets and the interstellar humans have never had a master-servant relationship.

Hearing her father's call, Su Yinchen had no choice but to hurry up. Su Sang didn't say much to Su Yinchen, picked up Su Xia and carried her away, leaving behind the words, "I'll deal with you when we get back."

"Xiaxia, does your eye hurt?" Su Sang asked, not daring to touch it with his fingers, afraid that his rough hands would hurt the little spirit pet.

Su Xia shook her head, her eyes still brimming with tears, "Uncle, I'm not in pain."

Su Sang didn't ask any further questions, "How about I catch a few more rabbits for you and Youyou to take home and raise?"
