Huayu: Starting by piggybacking on the fame of "Fairy Mom"

"Will you tell or not?"

Liu Xiaoli hugged An Qianqian tightly, who was as lively and energetic as a fish out of water.

She had tried everything, even spanking the little girl until her bottom was red and swollen, even beating her until she cried loudly, but nothing worked.

Anxixi simply replied with three words: "I don't know."

This can't be blamed on An Qianqian. Yesterday, after returning from her father's place, she wanted to tell her mother about this important matter of immortality to comfort her.

But the system rules were so strict that he couldn't bring himself to say it. As Zhou Xiaobai said—even a hint would get him struck by lightning.

Liu Xiaoli was really going all out this time, pulling out all the stops by tightly burying her daughter in her arms.

This was also the ultimate move she devised to deal with Zhou Xiaobai—you bragged about it yourself, so you're just reaping what you sowed.

Every time it's used, that little brat becomes as obedient as a kitten.

"Ugh... ugh... Mom, I really don't know—" Anxi's voice was muffled, but the words were clear, "Please forgive me, sob... sob..."

Liu Xiaoli loosened her grip, allowing An Qianqian to catch her breath.

"Don't try to fool me. You and Xiaobai are inseparable, how could you not know?" Liu Xiaoli didn't believe it at all.

"Waaah... Xiaobai told me it's an ancestral martial arts technique." Anxi's eyes lit up, and she suggested, "How about we go tomb raiding? Maybe all of Xiaobai's family secrets are there?"

She applauded her own cleverness and was even more eager for revenge—Zhou Xiaobai, you idiot, what kind of stupid method of ancestral martial arts did you come up with? Now I'm being punished along with you.

"Pfft!" Liu Xiaoli burst out laughing. This girl was hopeless. Who knows, that might become your ancestral grave later? Aren't you afraid of being struck by lightning? "How could I have given birth to such a stupid thing like you? Is this something you could have done? Is this something you even dared to think about?"

Anxi was puzzled. She blinked her big eyes and asked curiously, "Why?"

"Never mind, I'm not talking to you anymore." Liu Xiaoli shook her head, let go of her hand, and stared blankly at the ceiling.

She knew in her heart that even this severe interrogation had failed to get her any information, and she figured her cousin's situation was probably the same.

Or is it really as my little cousin said? The effects of the ancestral martial arts?

However, when she thought of Zhou Wenqiong's face, she chuckled to herself!

If you can't handle An Qianqian, you can at least handle Zhou Xiaobai, right?

As she was lost in thought, Anxi started acting recklessly again, "Mom, can you lend me a thousand yuan? I'll pay you back a thousand times over later."

"Hmm," Liu Xiaoli responded sullenly, then realized what she meant. Her eyes widened. "What did you say? What do you need so much money for? Doesn't Mom give you pocket money every day? And you even fought over Xiaobai's money, what happened to it?"

"I...I want to go out and play with Xiaobai, to find..." Anxi looked at her mother's suddenly wide eyes, her voice grew softer and softer, and finally she was too scared to make a sound.

"Go play? Go find what?" Liu Xiaoli twisted up and pinned An Qianqian down, slapping her buttocks three times in a row.

"Aww~" Anxi cried out in tears.

"Tell me, what are you looking for?"

"Xiao Bai said he'd take me to visit Sister Bingbing during the New Year." An Qianqian didn't care this time. Anyway, it's better to die than to die. It's all your fault. I'll give you a good spanking.

"What?!" Liu Xiaoli exclaimed in shock. "Do you even know how far Bingbing is? Aren't you two idiots afraid of being sold off?"

If they were all adults, I wouldn't care how they wanted to play, but these are all little kids!

Although Fan Bingbing is a few years older, he is still a few years away from adulthood. How can I feel at ease letting a half-grown child take care of three little kids?

That's not playing around, that's courting death!

Thinking of this, she flew into a rage, grabbing her daughter's ear and yelling, "Explain yourself! Why are you thinking of going to find Bingbing? What about Yaya? Is she also going to fly over from the Western Frontier?"

"Ah, no, no, it's Xiaobai who said she wanted to go to Bingbing's place to see the sea."

Sensing her mother's anger, Anxixi quickly made up a reason about the ocean to quell the flames.

If the ocean is too vast and we still can't extinguish it, then someone has to take the blame.

"Heh! I don't believe you for a second!" Liu Xiaoli gritted her teeth. "It must have been your idea, you little brat. You borrowed a thousand yuan? And you want to repay it a thousand times over? You're not even worth that much if you were sold."

"I'm worth it. Xiaobai said I'm priceless. He said he wouldn't sell me even if you added a few more zeros after a thousand." An Qianqian disagreed and brought up Zhou Xiaobai's reasons.

This was when the two of them were calculating the record's revenue in their social media space last night. Zhou Xiaobai said that once the record was released, it would definitely earn tens of millions, and then they would be millionaires.

Although Anxi is quite mature for her age and has a free-thinking mind, she doesn't really have a concept of how much money she has.

Zhou Xiaobai explained how much he could do with ten million yuan, and said that he would soon be worth tens of millions.

An Qianqian protested, saying she was worth more than that. Zhou Xiaobai comforted her, saying she was priceless.

Upon hearing her daughter's words, Liu Xiaoli immediately burst into laughter. She chuckled and teased, "Ten million? If you were worth that much, I'd call you Mom. You two are as stupid as little pigs, eating for free and still daydreaming."

"You~"

An Qianqian didn't say a word, but she was so angry that her stomach hurt—you Liu Xiaoli, you beat me up and you even look down on me?

I was originally planning to release a record and give you the money to keep, so you could retire in glory and become a freeloader, while I, the real fairy sister, would take you flying.

It seems I was too optimistic about you. Looks like I'll have to hide this money myself.

Hmph! You're determined to call me "Mom," and you're determined to find Bingbing and Yaya too.

I'll go during summer vacation, that's decided.

The thought of her future identity changing to Zhou Xiaobai's great-aunt filled An Qianqian with joy.

She changed tactics, looking at Liu Xiaoli with a fawning expression: "Yes, yes, Mom, you're right. I'm just your little darling, eating and sleeping all day, having nothing but sweet dreams."

"Hmph, stop dreaming. Go wash up and go to bed. You'll learn to dance with me tomorrow. You're so clumsy you can't even kick your legs properly." Liu Xiaoli pinched An Qianqian's cheek, retaliating—you made me suffer earlier, now you'll suffer too.

She knew that her daughter would absolutely whine at the mere mention of dancing.

During this time, An Xixi has been learning to sing with Wang Shuzhen. Although Liu Xiaoli is happy about it, she only thinks that An Xixi is learning for fun.

But the thought that her dance skills had no successor made her lose face.

Just as she expected, Anxixi invoked the Empress Dowager's name: "Grandma said you were even dumber when you were little, you couldn't kick your legs properly either..."

Liu Xiaoli was furious. "I'm talented! I even won a big award. What can you do? You can't even get a 'Three Good Student' award."

"I am your little darling," Anxixi replied.

Liu Xiaoli remained silent. What happened to the bloodline suppression?

This girl has gone too far! I can't argue with her, I really can't argue with her.

It's all Zhou Xiaobai's fault. Ever since those two got together, every word she utters has been a gem.

Liu Xiaoli was furious – Zhou Xiaobai, you're finished!
