Each word seemed to carry endless chill and murderous intent. Qian Cai, accustomed to bullying the weak and fearing the strong, instantly released his grip and staggered several steps away. Now that he was slightly safe, Qian Cai's lips were pale, and large beads of sweat dripped from his forehead to the ground.

"Hmph." Ji Xiaoxiao snorted coldly, casually walking into the room, leaving Qian Cai alone, lost in thought. After a while, Qian Cai angrily shouted, but then, remembering Ji Xiaoxiao's all-consuming, dark gaze, he suddenly covered his mouth in terror. Being afraid of death isn't a crime, Qian Cai muttered a few nonsensical words and went out to find some fun.

Ji Xiaoxiao possessed extraordinary senses and naturally heard Qian Cai's curses. Her hands paused for a moment, but her magnanimous heart softened. A barking dog doesn't bite, and a biting dog doesn't bark; anyone can put on airs, and Ji Xiaoxiao wasn't afraid of the outwardly strong but inwardly weak Qian Cai.

After changing her clothes and feeling refreshed, Ji Xiaoxiao went to Grandpa Bai and Grandma Bai's house.

"Sister, you're here!" The two little bundles of joy rushed out and bumped into Ji Xiaoxiao's arms.

Ji Xiaoxiao caught them and checked the twins with both hands. She didn't see anything wrong with the five-year-old twins, and a smile flashed across her face.

Now, Ji Xiaoxiao, who had no experience in raising children, relied on the old saying that "spare the rod and spoil the child" to put on a stern face, patted the little dumpling's bottom, and said sternly, "Liufeng and Liuyun, you are already five years old. You are big kids now and you can't be so noisy."

The twins were cautious but not stupid; their sixth sense told them that Ji Xiaoxiao loved them deeply. With this intuition, the twins fearlessly cuddled and acted spoiled in Ji Xiaoxiao's arms. Unable to scold or punish them, Ji Xiaoxiao could only slink back to school.

Going to and from school, day after day, Ji Xiaoxiao brought some snacks back to Grandpa Bai and Grandma Bai's house.

"Qingqing, don't you know? A few days ago, your mother suddenly came and took Liufeng and his wife away." Grandma Bai said, puzzled. "By the way, before your mother took Liufeng and his wife away, I think I saw some money. She was secretly spying on our house, thinking that my husband and I didn't know. We may be old, but we're not young at heart. We just don't know what she's doing."
