"Yes!" Qian Weiwei was secretly delighted; she loved seeing Xu Xinrou look so embarrassed.
Taking advantage of Xu Xinrou's inattention, she lowered her head and chuckled secretly. Then she quickly raised her head, blinked her big, watery eyes, and said, "Father also said that because of his precious daughter like me, he must make Mother the principal wife!"
Upon hearing this, Xu Xinrou's body trembled slightly involuntarily.
She thought she had done enough, but she never expected that she was still no match for a child.
Seeing Xu Xinrou's reaction, Qian Weiwei felt even more smug.
“At first, my mother disagreed. She said she didn’t want to affect my father’s reputation because of herself.”
But Father firmly told Mother that a mother's status depends on her son, or rather, her status depends on her daughter! Moreover, Mother had sacrificed so much for him, and his love for her had long surpassed that for any other woman.
"So, of course, Mother is the legal wife!" Qian Weiwei continued, a proud smile on her face.
Silence... a long, long silence...
Despite the blazing sun and scorching heat, the atmosphere was as cold and icy as a frozen pool, so oppressive that it was hard to breathe.
Li Baiyu gave an awkward, dry laugh, then forced himself to step forward. Seeing that Qian Weiwei was about to say something more, he quickly covered her mouth with his hand.
“Xinrou, you know we spoil this child. She likes to talk nonsense. Please don’t take it to heart and ignore her,” Li Baiyu said as she stepped forward.
Xu Xinrou lowered her head silently and replied softly, "It's alright, I won't take it to heart. My junior brother and I grew up together since childhood, we're like brothers, how could he say such a thing? There must be some misunderstanding."
Huh? So rational? Qian Weiwei couldn't help but feel quite disappointed. She had originally been looking forward to witnessing a thrilling battle between the two women. However, things didn't seem to be developing as she had hoped.
"However... I really need to have a serious talk with Junior Brother Su about this child."
Xu Xinrou slowly lowered her head, her gaze fixed on Xiao Qianwei, a dangerous yet mysterious smile on her face.
It was as if, in her eyes, this child had become a key clue to solving a certain mystery.
“After all, what she said might be false, but… this aura so closely connected to my junior brother is absolutely genuine.” Xu Xinrou’s tone was firm and decisive, as if she had made up her mind to investigate to the end.
Her gaze was as sharp as a hawk's, as if it could see through everything in the world. When she stared at the little girl before her, a strange feeling welled up in her heart. She keenly sensed that the little girl exuded a unique aura, an indescribable sense of familiarity, as if there were countless connections between her and Junior Brother Su.
The feeling was so strong that Xu Xinrou was almost certain that there must be some special relationship between the child and Junior Brother Su.
As she spoke, Xu Xinrou quickly reached out and grabbed at Xiao Qianwei.
Oh no! If we get caught, we're done playing!
Xiao Qianwei reacted quickly, and in a flash, she lifted Li Baiyu's skirt and slid past her long, slender legs.
Even though Li Baiyu had cultivated the Ice Heart Technique for many years, she subconsciously covered her long skirt at this moment.
By the time the two realized what had happened, Xiao Qian Weiwei had vanished without a trace. Xu Xinrou and Li Baiyu were both extremely surprised.
"Wow, that's fast! She can't possibly be a newborn baby!" Xu Xinrou covered her red lips, her face full of surprise.
At this moment, Li Baiyu also came to his senses, his expression turning somewhat strange: "Her cultivation level..."
"What's wrong, Master?" Xu Xinrou asked hurriedly upon hearing Li Baiyu's words.
"Oh, it's nothing, maybe it's just my imagination. How could a child possibly have such a high level of skill?" Li Baiyu muttered softly, but a hint of doubt flickered in her eyes. "However, her movements are quite agile..."
"Let's catch up with her first. Let's see who she is and what she's up to," Xu Xinrou suggested.
Li Baiyu nodded in agreement. The two then chased after Xiao Qianwei in the direction she had fled.
Although she had severed her cultivation, Qian Weiwei was still a powerful cultivator at the Mahayana stage. Xu Xinrou and Li Baiyu were only at the Nascent Soul stage and the Void Refinement stage, respectively. How could these two possibly catch up with Qian Weiwei? Qian Weiwei simply increased her speed slightly, and in no time at all, she had already left them far behind.
After creating enough distance, Xiao Qianweiwei finally arrived at the front of Hong Jiuquan's house.
Standing outside the house, she sensed the atmosphere inside and indeed discovered that Hong Jiuquan was meditating and cultivating inside.
Qian Weiwei's lips curled into a strange smile, as if she was full of anticipation for what was about to happen.
Immediately afterwards, with a loud "thump," Qian Weiwei violently pushed open Hong Jiuquan's door without any hesitation!
Then, just as Hong Jiuquan was looking bewildered and at a loss, Qian Weiwei suddenly burst into tears and threw herself into her arms...
"Waaah... Aunt Hong, my father is going to beat me!" Accompanied by a sob, a child suddenly burst into the room.
The sudden situation left Hong Jiuquan somewhat bewildered, especially being called "aunt" made her even more confused.
Without hesitation, she reached out and grabbed Xiao Qianwei by the back of her neck, lifting her up and asking in a harsh tone, "Whose child are you? How dare you barge into someone else's house?"
