Second Dad
The word "Mom" was so unexpected that Verlaine's smile froze for a moment, but he quickly recovered.
Verlaine was quite lenient towards this little fellow who resembled his younger brother and clearly had connections to the Central Plains.
"Why do you call me that?" he asked, puzzled. "Have we met before? Or have you heard your family mention me?"
The man's eyes filled with anticipation.
“Married woman!” Xiao Luo pointed at his casually tied low ponytail, her gaze serious.
"Wh-what?"
The little girl's words once again surprised Verlaine.
Little Luo gazed intently at the gentle woman with her low side ponytail, hugged Verlaine, and explained contentedly, "Brother said it was Mom's idea."
Previously, when Xiao Luo saw someone hugging the TV and crying, she would say, "Mother-in-law, this hairstyle is dangerous."
Xiao Luo specifically asked her brother, and he didn't disappoint, casually spouting some wifely sayings.
"What does 'married woman' mean? Why does that older brother call her 'married woman' or 'mother-in-law'?"
Looking into his younger sister's innocent and naive eyes, the older brother broke out in a cold sweat.
Finally, I told her firmly, "A wife's mother-in-law means someone can call another person's mother."
So Xiaolu believed him, and the consequence of unconditionally believing her brother was that she hugged Verlaine and called him "Mom."
The little girl has no parents and was raised by her older brother. Although she doesn't have any feelings for her parents, she already has a father, so she should need a mother, right?
It's like a figurine that's missing a piece; even though it's not the one you want, it still feels like something's missing.
So when she saw Verlaine, her eyes lit up instantly; the joy of completing something was something Verlaine didn't understand.
Verlaine listened to the child's words and fell into deep silence, feeling a sense of helplessness, as if he had nothing to say.
After a long silence, he asked, "Brother... is your brother Chuuya?"
Although it's hard to believe, judging from the little girl's age, it can only be her brother.
Chuuya's new family... Did he really say something like that to his new family?
It seems I still don't understand Chuuya well enough.
Verlaine was somewhat frustrated.
"Chuuya?" Xiaoluo scratched her head in confusion. The name sounded so familiar.
Do I think I've heard this somewhere before?
Verlaine didn't expect confirmation from the little girl. He made up his mind on his own, looking at the girl's similar face.
Verlaine reluctantly accepted: "Since Zhong is also your brother, I can accept you as my sister."
Suddenly, Mom turned into Brother, leaving Xiao Luo confused. Who is this guy? How could he do this? He just snatched Xiao Luo's mom away!
Xiao Luo thought to herself silently, feeling angry. That Chuuya, how awful!!
Seeing that Xiao Luo had completely forgotten about her mission as soon as she stepped out the door, Lingling sighed and reminded her: "Xiao Luo, don't forget your mission."
"Oh right, Xiao Luo came to see her father." The little girl buried her head guiltily in Verlaine's long legs.
After thinking for a moment, Xiao Luo's eyes lit up, and she looked up at Verlaine with a sudden realization: "Mom!"
Why are you calling for Mom again?
Verlaine frowned imperceptibly, but before he could say anything, the little girl uttered the second half of her sentence.
"Mommy, where's Daddy?"
Lingling fell silent. "Tell me," she thought, "look closely and ask Mom, 'Where's Dad?'" This seemed like a reasonable question.
But the premise is that you, as the mother, are not someone I personally acknowledged!
There's an inexplicable sense that it's a pseudo-human disguised as a machine.
never mind,
Zero helplessness.

Xiao Luo listened attentively.

"Don't call me Mom anymore." Verlaine frowned, unable to bear it any longer. Is this what her brother's ordinary family is like?
Why so stupid...
Just then, Verlaine saw the little girl suddenly radiate red light, and her schoolbag floated upwards behind her.
Upon hearing Lingling's words, the little girl, realizing she possessed gravity magic, immediately used it on her heavy schoolbag.
The bag, which had been holding two books, suddenly felt so light that it was as if the homework had vanished.
The little boy happily wiggled his little feet and waved excitedly at Verlaine: "Mommy, look, Little Luo can fly!"
Looking at Verlaine, who suddenly appeared with a familiar red glow on the opposite side: ...
"Yes, Xiao Luo is great. Be careful not to bump into anything. Do you need me to help you?"
Verlaine's mind raced in an instant. Seeing the little girl stumbling and falling, he immediately stood up and put his hands around her to prevent her from falling.
These aren't Chuuya's relatives, they're clearly their new family!!
Verlaine was touched as he looked at the lively and cheerful little girl. "Chūya has grown up. He can take care of his family now."
So, did Chuuya specifically send this child down for him to see? Although he's still struggling with what happened back then, Chuuya has actually accepted his older brother's identity in his heart...
"Ahem, little Luo, would you like to come down? I'll take you out to play." After imagining everything, Verlaine coughed dryly and tried to get closer to the little girl.
For the first time, Verlaine felt that his basement was too small and cramped, making it difficult for children to fly properly.
Xiao Luo was lifted into the air by gravity. After getting used to her superpower, she immediately looked around to get a feel for the tall man's field of vision.
The little girl's eyes lit up instantly when she saw the table in front of the blond man.
Verlaine, with his keen observation, glanced casually at the desserts on the table, then looked up and asked gently, "Would you like some snacks?"
"want!"
Looking at the little girl sitting at the table, Verlaine gazed at her with a gentle smile.
How come I didn't notice before? This little girl is so cute. When she eats, she looks like a little hamster.
The little girl puffed out her cheeks and stretched out her legs to hug the pastries.
Seeing Verlaine's gaze, the child tilted his head in confusion.
After thinking for two seconds, the little girl quickly pulled her leg back and prepared to leave the table. She said guiltily, "I'm sorry, Mom. I forgot that girls can't eat at the table."
Verlaine looked at this new family member with a gentle expression. Perhaps she and Zhongye were related by blood because of this resemblance. How wonderful.
His younger brother also has a new family.
There couldn't possibly be another superpower in the world, especially one that involves gravity. Who researched and created the Ara-to-Bah?
Verlaine was pondering when he heard the little girl's words. His expression changed instantly, and his eyes flashed with murderous intent.
He knew that Japan had many bad habits and was quite strict with girls. He never imagined that even in modern times, there would still be people who wouldn't allow girls to sit at the table to eat.
"Who says girls can't eat at the table? I'll teach him a lesson for you."
