The boy gritted his teeth: "The whole prehistoric world knows that I'm the one who bullies people, but every rumor mentions A-Tong's name. Who would know that she's mine?"
Xihe said confidently, "Atong didn't agree to your request. How could I let her become the subject of gossip? She's just a young girl; of course, her reputation needs to be protected."
"So you can sacrifice me? Whose mother are you anyway?"
"...What does it matter if a boy's reputation is ruined? Who in the entire prehistoric world doesn't know that you're a troublesome devil who can drive people crazy? If I could choose, I wouldn't want to choose you, you brat, as my child! Look, look, look, you're even drooping your face now—Tongtong is definitely the best, of course I'd rather be her mother."
The boy was so angry that even the bird's feathers seemed to stand on end.
Di Jun, standing next to him, lowered his head and silently suppressed a laugh, his shoulders shaking as if he were going crazy.
The boy glared at him accusingly. He coughed twice, trying to smooth things over: "Alright, alright, Xihe, you should say less. Son, stop glaring at me—I wouldn't dare mess with your mother, she'll beat me..."
"Who hit me? Don't spout nonsense, you bird!" Xihe snorted, dividing the peeled fruit plate into two pieces, one large and one small, and pushing them towards the boy and Tongsu sitting next to her. "I peeled fruit for you... You're not still angry, are you? Why are you so stingy?"
The large fruit platter was given to Tongsu, while the small fruit platter was placed in front of the boy.
juvenile:……
Although it's a good thing that Mother likes Atong so much, and she'll definitely support him marrying her, but—
Has he really become the lowest-ranking member of the family?!
Tong Su suppressed a laugh, switched the two fruit platters, and reached out to pat the boy's frizzy head: "Here, have the bigger one, don't be angry, okay?"
The last syllable of his voice rose slightly, as if it held a hint of doting affection. The boy, who had been bristling with anger, suddenly blushed, and all the fur on his body went soft.
He looked up pitifully, his eyes bright and wet: "Ah Tong, you're the best..."
Xihe shouted, "Tongtong, don't believe him! He's just pretending to be pitiful to trick you into pampering him. This kid is very cunning and a good actor! I specially cut the fruit platter for you, so don't give it to him. If he wants some, let him get it himself!"
"—Mother! You—you—Father, aren't you going to do anything about her?!"
"Son, I can't mess with your mother. She'll beat me. Good luck..."
Listening to the cacophony of arguments in the hall, Taiyi sat in his chair, rubbed his forehead, and sighed deeply.
Who could know that behind the majestic and awe-inspiring Heavenly Court, where the Heavenly Emperor and his family lived in awe and fear, what kind of chaotic and unspeakable chaos was actually taking place?
However, this caused quite a commotion.
Actually, the dancing was quite heartwarming.
He shook his head, chuckled helplessly, and shrugged.
If we could continue living like this, it would be quite nice, wouldn't it?
After a lot of bickering, the argument between the boy and Xihe finally ended after a long time.
Only Xihe was still unwilling to give up. She forcibly dragged Tongsu away from the seat next to the boy, pulled her to her side, hugged her with one arm, and flew towards the boy with a smug look before she triumphantly agreed to a ceasefire.
"Let me check your body... It's fine, it's just that your appearance has changed, there are no side effects, so you don't need to worry."
The boy looked pitifully at Tongsu, and when he realized that Xihe would never let her come over, he could only turn his head away in dissatisfaction, while his ten souls began to mutter and quarrel.
"Chen Yao, you big idiot—"
"It was Yin You who plotted against me, why don't you scold Yin You?"
"Because he's smarter than you!"
