The three of them were so astonished that they couldn't close their mouths when they saw the little koala that had appeared out of nowhere and was now clinging to Su Bai.
"Wait...where did this little girl come from? Could she be your child, shopkeeper?" Dia was stunned when she saw Little Lila clinging to Su Bai, and even asked directly if she was Su Bai's child.
Although Fang Qi and Lu Mo did not speak, it was not difficult to tell from their questioning gazes that they shared roughly the same thoughts as Dia.
He was clearly overwhelmed by the scene before him; didn't they even consider how old Su Bai was? How could he possibly have a child that big...?
"No... what are you three thinking? Little Lila is like my little sister, right? Little Lila is here to say hello to the three grandfathers." Su Bai's lips twitched, then he put on a smile and spoke to Little Lila, who had her head buried in front of him.
Hearing this, little Lila finally got down from Su Bai's arms and timidly greeted the three of them: "Hello, Grandpas..."
Seeing little Lila like this, not only were Fang Qi and Dia, who had become grandfathers, moved, but even the all-time single Lu Mo was touched, and they all put on kind smiles: "Hey, little Lila is so good~"
"What does Little Lila like to eat? Grandpa will buy it for you~"
"Um..."
"Little Lila, for the next few days you'll stay with your three grandfathers. They'll show you around the Sinan Alliance. You can tell them if there's anything you want to play or buy." Su Bai patted Little Lila's head and led her to Lu Mo and the other two.
But upon hearing this, Lila's eyes instantly welled up with tears, and she grabbed Su Bai's sleeve with a wronged expression: "Uncle...don't you want Lila anymore?"
Seeing her like this, Su Bai almost softened, but after thinking for a moment, he smiled and said, "What are you saying, Little Lila? Uncle has things to do. He'll come back to pick you up when he's done. Be a good boy, okay?"
"Alright then... Uncle, you need to come back soon..." Seeing Su Bai's insistence, Xiao Lila carefully loosened her grip on Su Bai's clothes. She believed that Su Bai wouldn't lie to her.
However, when she looked at Lu Mo and the other two, Lila was still somewhat timid and hesitant. It was clear that what had happened before had left a considerable scar on her heart, causing her to remain somewhat shy.
Seeing this, Su Bai was somewhat glad that she had let Xiao Lila leave her own space, otherwise, if she had stayed in her own space, problems would have arisen sooner or later.
Fortunately, it's not too late.
Seeing that Lu Mo and the other two were greatly affected by Xiao Lila's wariness, he used his divine sense to explain Xiao Lila's past to them!
"What?! Is that even possible?! That Yulong Baqian is a beast!!" Dia replied with his mental energy after hearing this, and the shockwave in his mental energy showed that he was really angry.
"Oh, poor child, shopkeeper, don't worry, we will treat him like a real grandfather..." Fang Qi was just as angry as Dia, but he was also heartbroken for little Lila's plight. He immediately felt pity for her. This time, he wasn't trying to please Su Bai, but genuinely wanted to be good to the child.
"Manager, do you mean we should teach her some mechanical repair skills during this time? See if she has any talent in mechanical repair or mental strength?" Lu Mo kept staring at Xiao Lila, not as excited as Fang Qi and Dia, but it was clear that she was just as restless.
“That’s right. If she has talent, you can help her with her early education, and if you’re willing, you could even consider taking her as your apprentice.” Su Bai also spoke frankly. If Xiao Lila really has talent for mechanical cultivation, it would be perfect for her to become Lu Mo’s apprentice.
