It's 10 p.m. in the living room.
He Xie put the washed Heaven-Defying Fate-Changing Fruit in a fruit platter on the tea table in the living room, and then called out all the sisters in the room.
Zhao Keying: "Brother, is this fruit that looks like an apple the 'Fate-Changing Fruit' you mentioned?"
Song Yuxin: "Brother, this apple looks so delicious."
Gu Xinyao: "Just because of these few apples on the plate, you came to my room and shook me awake?"
Li Muke: "Sit in a row, eat fruit, la la la la la......???"
"You have so many complaints even though you have food to eat. Have we been feeding you too much?"
Liu Yan glared at the two sisters, Zhao Keying and Gu Xinyao, and scolded them with a displeased expression.
The two sisters were immediately shocked when they heard this.
What's going on?
Aunt Liu actually spoke up for her little rascal?
Is the sun rising in the west?
Liu Yan ignored the strange looks on their faces.
She picked up a miraculous fruit from the fruit plate, raised her hand and put it in her mouth, thinking of setting an example for them.
Seeing this, Li Muke quickly picked out the biggest one and stuffed it into her mouth.
She had been drooling over the miraculous, life-changing fruit in the fruit platter for a long time.
I was just worried that if I was the first to reach for it, I might get scolded by Liu Yan.
Seeing that Liu Yan and Li Muke had started eating, the remaining three sisters also took one and put it in their mouths to eat.
"Snap!"
"Snap! Snap! Snap!"
"Snap! Snap!"
The flesh of the Destiny-Changing Fruit was very crisp, so the sounds the five people made while eating it were very clear and could be heard clearly in the quiet night.
Song Yuxin felt that making too much noise while eating would make her seem unladylike, so she took small bites.
During this time, she noticed that He Xie wasn't eating, but just silently watching the others eat, so she asked, somewhat puzzled, "Brother, why aren't you eating?"
“I’ve already eaten it before. This Heaven-Defying Fate-Changing Fruit can only be eaten once; it won’t have any effect after that.”
He Xie smiled and explained to his younger sister.
At this moment, the second younger sister, Gu Xinyao, said in a sharp voice:
"He Xie, your Heaven-Defying Fate-Changing Fruit must be just an apple. Except for the taste, everything else is exactly the same. You liar!"
The other people in the living room also had this question, but none of them voiced it.
Apple it is.
It's all about the sentiment behind the food, not some exotic flower or fruit.
He Xie was too lazy to argue with his second sister, so he just said to her, "You'll know whether it's an apple or not when it takes effect."
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone in the living room suddenly felt hot and uncomfortable all over.
It felt like stepping into a sauna on a hot summer day; sweat just kept pouring down my face.
They were all soaked through.
"Wow! What's this?!"
The usually quiet and gentle younger sister, Song Yuxin, suddenly cried out in alarm.
She discovered that her sweat contained a large amount of black sludge.
It looked like some kind of sticky stuff, stuck to the skin.
It was emitting a pungent and unpleasant smell.
Not only her, but the other four people in the room were also covered in black mud, and it looked like they had much more than her.
Especially Li Muke, whose body was covered in so much sludge that it almost formed a small mountain.
The size and weight of this small hill are almost as much as she is.
He Xie was shocked. Holy crap, what's wrong with little Mu Ke? Her body is so tiny, how can she expel so much sludge? Is she Doraemon?!
At this point, none of them could take it anymore.
They all looked at He Xie and asked him questions.
Liu Yan: "Thank you, but... what's with all this sludge?"
Zhao Keying: "Brother, is this the effect of your Heaven-Defying Fate-Changing Fruit?"
Song Yuxin: "Brother, I'm so hot."
Gu Xinyao: "You wicked old witch He Xie, how dare you use a poisoned apple to poison me, Snow White! You just wait, my Prince Charming will be here to beat you up soon!"
Li Muke: "Hehe...mud...dark mud...hehe...sticky...it's so much fun."
"Don't panic, everyone, it's not a big problem."
He Xie chuckled, clearly enjoying the spectacle, and said, "The reason you keep sweating and sludge is all thanks to the effects of the Heaven-Defying Fate Fruit. You've heard of marrow cleansing and bone tempering, right? You're experiencing that now."
"It's so dirty, I can't stand it."
Liu Yan looked at the mud oozing from her body with disgust, then picked up Li Muke and quickly walked towards the bathroom.
Her body was too dirty; she couldn't stand it and needed to wash herself clean with water immediately.
While we're at it, let's also help wash up young Li Muke.
"It stinks so bad, I can't stand it either."
The second younger sister, Gu Xinyao, pinched her nose, finished speaking, and turned to run towards the backyard.
There was a water tap there that was usually used to water the vegetable garden; she was going to take a bath there.
As for Zhao Keying and Song Yuxin, they could only stay in the living room and endure it, waiting for Liu Yan and Li Muke to finish their showers in the bathroom.
"You wicked fellow, you knew perfectly well that eating this fruit would make you all dirty, why didn't you warn us?"
Zhao Keying looked at He Xie with dissatisfaction, her tone full of resentment.
He Xie simply spread his hands and said, "Sister, you can't blame me for this. Who would have thought that there would be so many impurities in your bodies?"
"you......!"
Zhao Keying was so angry she couldn't speak. How could you talk like that, you deadbeat straight man? Who are you calling impure? I'm clearly a fair-skinned, beautiful fairy!
Song Yuxin, standing to the side, appeared rather silent.
She tried her best to hide herself behind her older sister Zhao Keying, not wanting He Xie to see her dirty body and ruin her fairy-like image.
Seeing that the two of them were making such a fuss, He Xie had no choice but to remind them:
“I’m telling you, what you should be concerned about right now isn’t the filth on your bodies, but your health.”
Zhao Keying: "What do you mean?"
He Xie said speechlessly, "I give up. Haven't you noticed that your usually weak and frail body has improved a lot?"
"Um?"
After hearing He Xie say this, Zhao Keying finally realized this belatedly.
My body, which is often plagued by aches and pains, now feels like it has been reborn; it feels so light and comfortable.
Song Yuxin behind her felt the same way. She could clearly feel that her usually weak and powerless body had become strong, and she felt full of energy.
"Keying or Yuxin, which of you two should go to the room and get me two sets of clothes, one for me and one for Xiaomu Ke!"
Suddenly, Liu Yan's shout came from the bathroom, obviously she had finished showering and found that she had no clothes to wear.
"Okay, got it!"
Zhao Keying responded and then walked towards Liu Yan's room.
But halfway there, she suddenly realized that she was all dirty. If she went in, she would make the room and her clothes dirty.
So she went back and walked to the bathroom door, saying to Liu Yan inside, "Aunt Liu, I'm too dirty right now, let me ask He Xie to help you get it."
Liu Yan: "Anyone can take it, hurry up."
After receiving her adoptive mother's permission, Zhao Keying looked at He Xie on the sofa and said, "Brother, go to the room and get clothes for Aunt Liu and Xiao Muke."
He Xie: "Oh."
Zhao Keying: "Oh right, you don't need to take Aunt Liu's underwear, just take her a long dress."
He Xie: "Sister, how could you think of me in such a despicable way?"
Zhao Keying: "I didn't think of you in a dirty way, it was just a normal way of avoiding suspicion."
He Xie: "......"
