Yan Ruoruo was pulled into Yan Qingran's arms, and her belly and head were roughly kneaded and squeezed. Her fur was turned over completely, and even the tip of her tail was not spared.
After confirming that Ruoruo was unharmed and still the same soft, fluffy, and adorable kitten, Yan Qingran stopped and, holding the kitten by the ears, asked, "What did you do wrong?"
“You were wrong in every way. You shouldn’t have sneaked out to play, and you shouldn’t have been gone for so long without writing to your mother, making her worry. You also shouldn’t have put yourself in danger.” Ruoruo’s analysis was very logical.
Mo Yong suddenly felt a tickle in his fingers and wanted to give the kitten a good squish.
Why does this kitten act differently in front of him and his mother?
Isn't that a good way to admit mistakes and know where you went wrong?
If Ruoruo knew her parents better, she would know exactly which trick to use on which parent, whether it was being cute, charming, or admitting her mistakes.
Seeing that Ruoruo had admitted her mistake so thoroughly, Yan Qingran didn't press the matter further. Instead, her eyes reddened: "You child, you know your mother is worried, yet you still dare to run around. Your mother is so anxious that she can't eat or sleep. Every day, she's afraid that you'll get hungry, thirsty, hurt, or bullied outside. Nowhere is as good as home. Look how thin you've become after just one trip outside... Hmm?"
Yan Qingran couldn't cry anymore. She pinched the chubby little cat's paws in confusion, even scratching it until it had a double chin: "Did you go out and eat fertilizer? How come you've gotten so fat?"
Ruoruo wagged her tail slightly, and her eyes lit up instantly: "The pastries in the world of immortals are so delicious, the flower dew is so good, and the fried flower petals are especially delicious."
As she spoke, she licked her lips, looking as if she was savoring the memory.
Yan Qingran's alarm bells went off instantly. What pastries, flower dew, fried flower petals—she heard nothing but snacks, not even a mention of staple foods.
She grabbed Mo Jinyan, who trembled in fear: "Mother...Mother, I was wrong too..."
"What did you do wrong? Go back to your original form!" Yan Qingran glanced at him, and Mo Jinyan was so frightened that he instantly turned into a chubby little bird.
Yan Qingran pinched it with her hand and found that the little chubby bird that she could just squeeze with one hand was now only half the size she could hug. It turned out that the bird had doubled in size. It could no longer be called a little chubby bird; it was a small round ball.
With a serious expression, she picked up Ruoruo and Mo Jinyan and ran back: "Mo Yong, go and call the physician to examine them! These two little brats are eating snacks outside, it's so unhealthy. They're just bloated, it's bad for their health!"
Just like the fried chicken, cola, and burgers in her world, every kid who eats them says they're delicious and they gain weight quickly, but in terms of nutritional value, they're simply not worthy of being served.
The flesh that grows like this is unhealthy.
Yan Qingran was extremely worried. How could she have been so foolish as to send him away?
This child can't be left unsupervised.
The remaining father and sons, who had been ignored, exchanged glances. Mo Yong looked at Mo Yunlan, and Mo Yunlan looked at Mo Xuanshuang.
Mo Xuanshuang shook her head from side to side, pointed at herself with her paw, and asked in confusion, "Why are you looking at me?"
"Didn't you hear what your mother said?" Mo Yong said coldly, then flicked his sleeve and ran after the lady.
Mo Yunlan tapped him on the head with the longbow in his hand: "Hurry up and go invite the Immortal Physician. If you are late, don't blame Mother and Father for being angry."
He rode the clouds swiftly, and in the blink of an eye, he was gone.
The little white tiger, who had just realized what was happening, was left alone, looking furious: "All you do is bully the weak."
He flicked his tail at one of the immortal servants and said fiercely, "You, go and fetch the Immortal Healer, and hurry up!"
The fairy servant nodded in agreement and ran away quickly.
Their Fourth Prince even accused others of bullying the weak, but isn't he also bullying the weak?
This family's genes are simply inherited.
Ruoruo and Mo Jinyan were completely bewildered by Yan Qingran, and quickly assured her that they had definitely eaten a proper meal: "That's how the people of the Longevity Clan eat, that's their daily meal."
“You said it yourself, they are people of the Longevity Clan, not people of our Immortal Realm. Besides, their food from other places may not be healthy.” Yan Qingran was really worried that the two children had taken too many hormones. “What if they harm their bodies? We still need to have the Immortal Physician take a look. Don’t try to argue with me.”
Ruoruo was helpless. After all, she was a Golden Immortal-level alchemist. Surely she could tell the difference between good and bad food. Her mother was just worried and confused.
After a chaotic and disorderly scene, the Immortal Physician confirmed repeatedly that there were no problems, and that her foundation was solid and her spiritual power was strong, before Yan Qingran finally felt at ease.
"Mom, look, I told you everything's fine." Ruoruo Cat puffed out her chest. "You have to believe me, a Golden Immortal-level alchemist."
Yan Qingran snorted: "It's good that nothing happened. It would have been troublesome if something had happened. Since nothing happened, then explain yourself. Why did you run away without saying goodbye? What about all those merits?"
Mo Yong also recalled the anomaly in the passage to the Realm of Immortality: "What exactly happened in the Realm of Immortality? Everything was fine when Yunlan came back to deliver the message. Isn't that the Moon Silk Veil you're wearing? Why did that female ruler even give you a divine artifact?"
Under intense questioning from the couple, Ruoruo concealed their desire to cultivate forbidden techniques and obediently recounted everything else in detail, without holding anything back.
"Master said I shouldn't work in seclusion, so I wanted to travel around the Six Realms, practice alchemy, and gather the strengths of the Six Realms." Ruoruo changed the story of collecting divine artifacts, "I was worried about the danger and that you wouldn't agree, so I secretly slipped away... I rested in the mortal realm for a while, but found there wasn't much to learn, so I wanted to come back. But then I was captured by the Underworld King."
It took Ruoruo most of an hour to explain the matter, during which she drank two cups of tea.
Yan Qingran clutched her chest, looking breathless, and said, "You've been through so much without my knowledge, I'm so worried."
Ruoruo quickly stepped forward to help Yan Qingran catch her breath: "Ruoruo's back, Mom isn't worried."
"No!" Yan Qingran sat up, holding the kitten, her face serious. "You little kitten have to be punished for doing bad things, you know? But you're really amazing, really great, really outstanding for getting so many artifacts and saving so many people in the underworld, so Mommy will reward you."
Ruoruo nervously hugged her tail: "W-what punishment? What reward?"
It feels like nothing good is ever happening.
Yan Qingran revealed a triumphant smile: "The punishment is of course a kiss on the head from Mommy! The reward is a kiss on your belly from Mommy! This naughty little kitten is going to be kissed bald by Mommy."
She grabbed Ruoruo the cat and showered her with kisses, the speed of which was like a chick pecking at rice, making Ruoruo's fur fly everywhere.
With teary eyes, Ruoruo reached out her hands to her brothers for help.
Seeing this, Mo Jinyan couldn't help but jump back a step, and Mo Yunlan also silently turned her head away.
Was my mother really this terrifying?
