She finally... finally got what the immortal wanted!

Sweetie carefully held the divine flower and asked curiously, "If no injured person eats it, will it become even more powerful?"

Is it great?

Her question stumped Mengmeng.

The Divine Flower is only used when someone needs it. And in terms of healing effects, the Little Butterfly is more potent than the Divine Flower.

However, for those who are not injured, eating the Divine Flower only makes them healthier, with no other changes.

“Sister Sweetie, the Divine Flower only eats when it needs to,” Mengmeng explained.

I only have what I need, and I just don't want to give it to her!

Sweetie released her arm and said with a hint of sadness, "Everyone seems to have seen the divine flower and even received it, so why can't I have it? Or does Mengmeng think I'm not a family person, so I don't deserve the divine flower you gave me?"

Her words carried a subtle, tea-like undertone; seemingly humble, she was actually implying that Mengmeng was the one with ulterior motives. At such a young age, she already knew how to use attractive things to win their favor.

Gu Shiyu disapproved of Tian Tian's actions and stepped forward to defend her, saying, "When the divine flower should be taken out and who should use it is all based on reason and evidence, and it cannot be changed by anyone's words."

"Brother!" Mengmeng said worriedly, pulling at Gu Shiyu, not wanting him to say things that would upset Tiantian.

Gu Shiyu didn't care whether Tian Tian was happy or not; he only cared whether Meng Meng would be happy.

"Aunt Ping, is dinner ready?" Gu Shiyu turned to the kitchen and asked.

Aunt Ping, who was in the kitchen, vaguely heard the noise and immediately poked her head out. "Was that you calling me?"

Aunt Xue carried the prepared dishes out, saying, "Sir and Madam, dinner is ready."

After glancing at the restaurant table, Gu Shiyu led Mengmeng to the table. He pulled out a chair for Mengmeng and gently helped her sit down.

The others also came over and sat down intermittently.

"Sweetie, come, sit down." Ruolan pulled out a chair and invited Tiantian to sit down next to her.

Seeing that Mengmeng had Gu Shiyu on her left and Xie Beiling on her right, Tiantian deliberately asked, "Mommy, I want to sit with Mengmeng."

Everyone else was already seated except for her, who was still standing. Her request would have disturbed everyone present to change seats for her.

Ruolan wasn't completely ignorant of reason. Gu Shiyu usually sat next to Mengmeng during meals, and although she had a bad feeling about Xie Beiling from their first meeting, he was, after all, a guest at the Gu family. It wasn't proper to ask a guest to change seats after they were already seated. Even if she doted on Tiantian, she still needed to understand some basic etiquette.

He placed his palm on Tian Tian's arm and gently pulled it down. "Sweetie, look, everyone's already seated. Next time, next time we eat, you can sit with Meng Meng, okay?"

Sweetie shook her arms unwillingly, "No! I want to sit with Mengmeng, I want to, I want to!"

Her whole body swayed back and forth like a rattle-drum. The violent swaying nearly knocked Ruolan, who was trying to control her emotions, to the ground.

He'd do anything, but making Ruolan hurt or unhappy was absolutely unacceptable to Gu Yinshen. He raised his hand and slammed it on the table, glaring fiercely at the boisterous Tian Tian.

It's one thing to be a little temperamental, but who can stand someone who throws a tantrum unreasonably?

"If you can't eat, then go outside. The Gu family won't tolerate any child causing trouble at home!" Gu Yinshen scolded.

Upon seeing this, Tian Tian immediately quieted down. She pouted, looking aggrieved, as if she wanted to cry but dared not.

Ruolan was heartbroken and pushed Gu Yinshen's arm hard, "Yinshen, you scared our baby!"

She's so dramatic, you can't just scare her like that.

However, since Ruolan had already spoken, Gu Yinshen didn't say anything more.

"Okay, okay, stop crying. If you want Mengmeng to sit, then Mommy and Mengmeng can switch seats." After Ruolan finished speaking, Mengmeng stood up from the chair.

Gu Shiyu and Xie Beiling were both unwilling. Why should everyone have to give in to her when she makes a fuss? They didn't owe her anything.

"Mengmeng, it's fine if you don't want to sit here," Xie Beiling said.

It's not that whoever cries and makes a fuss is right.

Sweetie was about to succeed at what she wanted, but upon hearing Xie Beiling's words, her eyes immediately turned fierce.

Why are there so many meddlesome people everywhere?

"Mengmeng is willing to sit with Sister Tiantian." Mengmeng insisted on standing up from her chair.

Watching her walk towards Tian Tian, ​​Gu Shiyu and Xie Beiling instantly lost their appetite.

"My Mengmeng is so good!" Ruolan stroked her cheek, bent down to pick Mengmeng up and place her on the chair she had just been sitting on. She forgot to do anything affectionate with Tiantian.

After circling around the dining table, Ruolan switched seats with Gu Shiyu.

"Sister Sweetie, Aunt Ping and Aunt Xue's food is so delicious, Mengmeng loves it, and I'm sure you will love it too."

Mengmeng's words made Aunt Ping and Aunt Xue, who were waiting nearby, feel an unprecedented sense of recognition and pride.

The dishes in front of me looked decent, but they were just ordinary home-style cooking, far inferior to what a five-star chef would prepare.

Sweetie picked up her chopsticks, took a bite of food, and put it in her mouth. Glancing out of the corner of her eye at Mengmeng, who was expecting a response from her, she deliberately chewed slowly.

"Mengmeng, this is your favorite sweet and sour shrimp. Eat more." Ruolan stood up slightly and laboriously placed the shrimp from her chopsticks onto Mengmeng's plate across the long table.

"Thank you, Mom." Mengmeng's eyes crinkled with a smile.

For a moment, she forgot about expecting a sweet response and picked up her fork to put the shrimp in her mouth.

"Aunt Ping's sweet and sour shrimp is as delicious as ever, Mengmeng loves it so much~" Tiantian said, then popped another shrimp into her mouth.

As children, watching Mengmeng eat made their appetites improve. In contrast, watching Tiantian eat was as if there was something sinister in her food; she not only found it difficult to swallow but also showed great disgust.

Xie Beiling was facing Tian Tian, ​​and he preferred to keep his head down rather than look up at Mengmeng.

Sweetie was quite annoyed to see that Mengmeng's attention was no longer on her. Back in the orphanage, she had been Mengmeng's little follower, always obeying her every word. Now that they were both at the Gu family's house, she was still expected to act as her little maid.

Her gaze fell on the chopsticks in her hand, and a wicked thought instantly formed in her mind.

"Cute."

Bada~

As Mengmeng turned around, Tiantian's chopsticks fell to the ground. Without saying a word, Tiantian immediately bent down to pick up the chopsticks.
