As the two were chatting, a sprout suddenly darted over.
"Auntie, Uncle, can we go into the space to take a bath first? Auntie and Pineapple have already started sucking blood."
Upon hearing this, Qin Luo and Wu Hua immediately looked towards the two of them.
Then, one of them transformed into a vine, draining all the blood from the vine.
A little hand, stained with blood, was about to put it in its mouth.
Qin Luo immediately slapped Pineapple's hand away.
"You eat everything, are you going to go hungry or something?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the little ones' stomachs all started growling.
She then realized that she had indeed not prepared any food for them that day.
Given the vastness of the ocean, my attention was constantly drawn to the sea creatures.
They completely forgot about eating.
"Come on, let's go into the space. You guys go take a shower first, I'll go make you something to eat."
The pineapple felt a little wronged after being hit, but now, upon hearing about being cooked...
He immediately forgot his grievances and happily ordered food.
"Mother Beast, I want to eat stewed meat, not dry food and fruit."
Qin Luo picked her up, and the next second the group appeared in the space.
"Go take a bath obediently, and Mother Beast will go and stew some meat, okay?"
"good."
After the children went to the bathroom, Qin Luo turned and went into the kitchen.
And in front of the mirror where they had just been standing, the figure of a man appeared; this man was none other than Ming Yi.
He stroked the edge of the mirror, a slight smile in his eyes.
"They've grown so much..."
As soon as he finished speaking, a little girl walked out from behind him.
"Father, didn't you say you were bringing me to see the treasure? Where is the treasure?"
Ming Yi turned his head, his tone full of doting affection.
"I'm afraid we can't see it today. How about your father takes you somewhere else to see it another day?"
"Oh no! Father broke his promise! Humph!"
Looking at the sulking little figure in front of him, Ming Yi's lips unconsciously curled up into a smile.
"My dear little Zhao Zhao, Father will surely find you an even better treasure, how about that?"
“I’m all grown up now, Father can’t call me by my childhood nickname anymore.”
"Alright, alright, our Mingzhao has grown up. From now on, we won't call you Little Zhaozhao anymore. How about we call you Zhao'er?"
Upon hearing this, Ming Zhao curled his lip.
"Alright, then Father will find a treasure for Zhao'er. Can Zhao'er choose one herself?"
"Of course, in this realm, my Zhao'er can have whatever she wants."
Ming Zhao's eyes darted around, and a mischievous idea came to mind.
"I want a sister..."
"no."
Before he could finish making his request, Ming Yi shouted at him.
Immediately, a strange sense of grievance swept over Ming Zhao's entire body.
Her hands clenched into fists, and her body trembled uncontrollably.
"All I wanted was a pet like my sister's, why is Father so mean to me? Father is biased, waaaaah~"
Ming Yi realized he had overreacted. Ever since he learned that Ming Zhaoru had frightened Qin Luo...
He worried that she might hurt Qin Luo one day, so whenever Ming Zhao mentioned her...
Ming Yi was somewhat stressed.
"Zhao'er, be good. Father thought about catching one for you before, but it got away. However, for these kinds of auspicious beasts with soul contracts, it's best if both parties are willing."
Mingzhao didn't believe a single word he said.
"You're lying. You said you caught my sister's cat, and it wasn't by choice. So why are they able to stay together for all eternity?"
Ming Yi glanced at Ming Zhao's sullen face and shook his head in disappointment.
"no the same."
"How is it different? My sister and I are both Father's daughters, what's the difference?"
Mingyi reached out and touched her already puffed-up little head.
“Your sister has a different personality from yours. Back then, I wasn’t sure if she was still alive. I happened to save a baby auspicious beast, so I asked him to follow my scent and look for her. I didn’t have much hope, but he actually found her.”
Seeing him reminiscing with such loving eyes, Ming Zhao felt a surge of anger.
"So what? You gave me the pet anyway."
Knowing her impatient nature, Mingyi patiently explained to her...
“I merely sent the auspicious beast to search. Their success is a matter of fate. Besides, as far as I know, your sister never asked for a soul contract with him.”
"Impossible. They clearly have a soul contract. I saw it when I entered their dreams. The bond between them is quite deep."
Mentioning Ming Yi ignited his fury.
"How dare you say that? Your sister is just a mortal now. What if she gets seriously injured from fright? Besides, that soul contract was only signed before they crossed over to the human world."
"Impossible. Was she stupid in her previous lives? Having such a useful pet, why didn't she take it for herself sooner?"
Ming Yi looked at her with an air of entitlement and closed his eyes sadly.
“I’ve been teaching you for so long, why haven’t you made any progress? The question you just asked is the biggest difference between you and Luo Luo.”
Upon hearing this, Ming Zhao looked at him blankly, as if needing another explanation.
Seeing her stubborn expression, Ming Yi sighed helplessly.
“I’ve said before that signing a soul contract should be voluntary for both parties. Your sister has never forced the auspicious beast. The two of them get along like siblings, not like the pet you keep talking about.”
Ming Zhao was criticized several times in one day, how could she tolerate that?
"You're just biased. Everything my sister does is good, but everything I do is wrong. I was born because of her, and the love you give me is also because of her. I'm just a substitute. If that's the case, then go find her. Why bother playing this act with me here?"
After she finished speaking, she enveloped the entire island with her resentment, as if to destroy it.
Fearing she might act recklessly and harm Qin Luo, who was still on the island, Ming Yi quickly used his magical artifact to subdue her.
