Kaopu completely disregarded Xu Ling's shame and indignation.
It didn't even understand why Xu Ling was making such a fuss!
Kaopu couldn't help but complain in his heart, "Humans are such a hassle! Even after becoming gods, they still have so much shame!"
Kaopu rolled his eyes inwardly.
It really didn't understand what Xu Ling was doing, acting all coy and hesitant.
This is clearly a ready-made opportunity to increase faith points, yet Xu Ling is making excuses and giving all sorts of reasons, simply because she doesn't want to try and persuade him!
Are you kidding me?
Shouldn't we be willing to use any means necessary to complete the mission now?!
Besides, it didn't actually make Xu Ling resort to any means necessary; it was just to persuade her or, more simply, to ask her some questions.
Is it really true that Xu Ling can't even fulfill such a small request?!
We can't just let this go!
However, no matter what, the Goddess of Fertility must take this step in her mission!
Moreover, if it gives in this time, does that mean Xu Ling will back down every time she encounters a couple similar to Old John and his wife?
That definitely won't do!
It must change Xu Ling's mind!
Kaopu looked at Xu Ling, who was still looking down, and cleared his throat.
“Host,” seeing Xu Ling look up, the reliable-looking creature wore an understanding expression, “I understand the feelings you just described. However,” it suddenly changed the subject, “you should still remember your identity, right?”
Xu Ling blinked, a look of confusion in her eyes.
Of course she knows who she is!
Earth Goddess and the Goddess of Fertility!
This is her divine position; how could she possibly forget it?
But why would Kaopu suddenly bring this up?
Xu Ling nodded and voiced her question.
“Well,” the reliable tone became earnest, “since you know your own identity, you shouldn’t treat old John and Ella differently!”
That's utterly nonsensical!
Xu Ling was taken aback and blurted out, "How am I being treated differently?"
"You still say you didn't!" The reliable man's face showed a reproachful expression. "You are a god, after all. Everyone says that God loves the world, so shouldn't old John and Ella be treated like children in your eyes?"
Huh?
What kind of nonsense is this "reliable" thing to say?
She can understand each word individually, so why can't she understand them when they're put together?
The doubt in Xu Ling's eyes was even greater than before.
However, she was only distracted for a moment when Kaopu started rattling off a bunch of things. By the time she focused and listened again, Kaopu was already giving his concluding remarks.
"So you should treat old John and Ella as your children. As a parent, you're just offering a helpful suggestion."
"Of course, you didn't ask for anything in return; you just wanted them to believe in you!"
The more Kaopu spoke, the more he felt he was right, and his eyes held a hint of expectation as he looked at Xu Ling.
Since it has said that, Xu Ling should know that she was wrong now, right?
Hurry up and talk to Old John and Ella so we can finish the mission a little sooner!
Although Xu Ling was still a little confused by the end, surely he didn't have to treat her like a fool?
Doesn't this statement have only one meaning from beginning to end?
Why give her such fancy words!
Anyway, she only said two words: No way!
Xu Ling shook her head like a rattle drum.
Seeing her like this, Kaopu really refused to believe it and tried to reason with Xu Ling in a nice tone.
However, Xu Ling's attitude remained unchanged.
no!
No means no!
This time, there was no way to persuade her; she never expected that Xu Ling would be so stubborn this time.
Its mood immediately soured.
"What if you encounter someone like Old John and Ella again next time? Will you still refuse?"
The reliable cat stared wide-eyed and raised its voice to question him.
Seeing this, Xu Ling quickly pretended to be quiet.
"Keep your voice down, Old John and the others are about to hear you!"
After saying that, she looked up and smiled at Old John and the other man not far away, as a gesture of reassurance.
"Tell me, what will you do next time you encounter something like this?"
Is it reliable or should we keep focusing on this issue?
The issue has never been whether it's Old John and Ella, but whether Xu Ling treats everyone equally or only makes exceptions for Old John and Ella.
Xu Ling turned around and saw that Kaopu was insistent, demanding an answer from her.
To be honest, Xu Ling secretly felt that the task of finding a fertility goddess should be done by a young man, and there was no need to involve middle-aged and elderly people.
However, Xu Ling knew that if she told Kaopu this, Kaopu would definitely not agree.
They might start arguing again later.
Xu Ling wasn't afraid of arguing with Kaopu, but she was a little embarrassed, especially about such an embarrassing topic.
Therefore, Xu Ling decided to try to deceive them.
She had covered up the previous incident involving Old John and Ella, and would agree to anything Reliable said.
If we really encounter this situation in the future, well, we'll just be flexible and adapt, and then we can change our minds later!
With her thoughts temporarily settled, Xu Ling found it much easier to answer reliable questions.
"Hey, you need to give me some time to adjust first. Old John and Ella just arrived, and their daughter is missing. If I were to say those kinds of things to them, would I even be human?!"
"You weren't even human to begin with!"
Kaopu coldly remarked from the side, and Xu Ling's body stiffened. She pretended not to hear and continued what she had just said.
"You, you agree, so I think we should just let it go with Old John and Ella. If I run into them again in the future, I promise!" Xu Ling raised her right hand as if to swear, "I promise I'll close my eyes and rush forward, no matter who they are, and immediately say, 'Honey, do you want to have a baby?'"
"Look, is this reliable?"
