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

Chapter 14 Each with their own calculations

Anxi was unhappy and very upset.

After parting ways with Zhou Xiaobai, she, as a true immortal fairy, happily flew home, planning to let her mother also benefit from her fairy aura later.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I entered, I encountered the real Queen Mother of the West.

"Tell me, where did you go?" Liu Xiaoli asked sternly, her fists clenched so tightly they cracked.

Anxi suddenly slammed on the brakes, her eyes darting around, and said, "I'm going to find Sister Nana to do my homework."

"You're not being good!" Liu Xiaoli's voice was soft, but it carried a chill.

Anxi was a little confused: "What's wrong? I've been very good lately, staying home every day and not going anywhere."

"I ran into Yao Anna downstairs when I got back. She said you didn't go to her place today, and that she saw you at the theater." A hint of mockery flashed in Liu Xiaoli's eyes as she stared at her daughter's empty hands. "Homework? Where's your homework?"

Anxi's heart skipped a beat! Had she been caught? I clearly crept away... Mom must be bluffing! Unless I'm caught red-handed, I absolutely cannot admit it!

"No, no, no! I went around her, she must be mistaken, I was right there with her!" Anxi shook her head like a rattle drum, lying through her teeth.

"Keep making this up."

"I was wrong, I went to watch you dance."

"Oh! So who's with you today?" Liu Xiaoli smiled, her mind racing—Heh heh! Zhou Xiaobai, I'll eat my hat if I don't give you a good beating.

"Well... um... you already know, don't you?" Anxixi replied awkwardly.

"Zhou Xiaobai?"

"Uh-huh!"

"Didn't I tell you to bring him home for dinner?" Liu Xiaoli said calmly, not wanting to alert him.

Zhou Xiaobai, who was with her daughter today, kept lingering in her mind.

That little brat must have recognized me too. I just don't know if he told Qianqian about what happened that day. The first thing she wanted to do when she got back was to find out!

I thought that since we agreed to have dinner yesterday, this girl would bring him back.

That little brat is good to his own girl, but he can't help but feel resentful.

We didn't catch you today, so we'll wait for you to come to us and show you what a surprise is.

As for my own daughter, she ran off and disappeared for ages as soon as the performance ended.

If she hadn't witnessed it with her own eyes, she would have let Zhou Xiaobai get away with it by taking her to see the performance.

However, it seems that the little brat definitely didn't tell his daughter about that.

Ha ha!

We'll just wait and see if you come knocking.

Anxi smiled sheepishly: "All you know how to make is fried rice—oh no—" Before she could finish speaking, Liu Xiaoli grabbed her daughter, pressed her down on the sofa, and gave her bottom a three-slap slap slap.

After finishing, Liu Xiaoli said angrily, "You still complain that my cooking isn't good enough?"

"Mom's cooking is delicious," Anxi praised with tears in her eyes.

"Then why are you running around? What have you been doing all this time?" Liu Xiaoli said, then began to bait the waters. "You can play with him, but you absolutely cannot run around. It's best to take him home to play with, understand?"

"Really?" Anxi's eyes lit up, forgetting her sore bottom.

"Mom keeps her word!" Liu Xiaoli continued to tempt her.

This is unprecedented! Mom actually meant it and doesn't object to her playing with boys anymore?

"Mom, I have a question for you." Anxixi smiled broadly, but she was still worried.

"explain."

"Will you scare people?"

"uh-huh!"

"Would you hit him?"

"hehe!"

An Qianqian shrank her neck and dragged someone else down with her, "Then can you go learn to cook from your aunt? Xiaobai and I don't eat fried rice."

"Ah—" Liu Xiaoli roared in anger, grabbing her daughter and slamming her onto the sofa, giving her another beating on the bottom. "I won't hit him, I'll hit you! My cooking isn't good enough, you're such a big dog for nothing. You really think I'm a tigress, trying to scare people?"

The sounds of slapping and shouting mingled together, but Zhou Xiaobai would definitely get a beating too if he came; let's just get him back first.

“Ah…”

Anxi burst into tears instantly, sobbing uncontrollably.

……

Late at night, Zhou Xiaobai lay on his small bed, looking at his roommate Xu Daguo who was fast asleep, his thoughts churning.

Today felt like a rollercoaster ride, going up and down, climbing from one small peak to another.

Finally, the first system member has been bound. Once Fan Bingbing and Tong Liya are bound together, then forever will no longer be a dream.

"Ugh!"

After the initial excitement, Zhou Xiaobai sighed.

He thought about his age, and that An Qianqian was still a freeloader, while Fan Bingbing and Tong Liya were still kids. It seemed they would have to develop steadily for a few more years.

If the system sends a slightly older rising star, or if An Qianqian can quickly accumulate a million popularity points, she can recruit Zhou Wenqiong.

But that's just wishful thinking—with a small theater like this dance troupe, how long would it take to accumulate a million points?

Even if we give a million thumbs up to the treatment of school phobia, it would still take a year and a half to work.

As an orphan, he has no way to start a business now. Even if he let An Qianqian plagiarize novels, it would be suicide. Anyway, he doesn't believe that a second-grade elementary school student can publish a novel without government investigation. Even a single interview program would expose everything.

The thought of having to move out of the orphanage in a few days made Zhou Xiaobai feel sad again.

It's been a year since I transmigrated to this world. Grandma Wang and the friends in the orphanage have been very kind to me. I really hate to leave them. Although I eat poorly and dress shabbily, it's still better than being a little beggar, right?

He had considered using his spatial abilities to pull off some big cases, but even with a fortune, what could he do at such a young age?

Besides, we haven't reached that point yet, so we have to give up on this idea.

However, I will definitely repay Grandma Wang and the orphanage properly in the future.

Thinking of Zhou Wenqiong gave him a headache. This older sister was a bit unreliable, her thoughts were all over the place, and she dragged him to go for a walk in the street that afternoon.

She didn't want to go, but she made up an excuse that she had to dress formally for the day of the family reunion.

They also said that Zhou Xiaobai should stay in the orphanage for the time being, and then move there three days before the family reunion, saying that this would be auspicious.

We spent the whole afternoon shopping, snacking the whole way, buying clothes, and of course, stationery.

Finally... in the end, the older sister actually dragged me to buy underwear.

Zhou Xiaobai stood frozen at the shop entrance, but the older sister pulled him inside without saying a word, adding: "What are you ashamed of, you little kid? Let me teach you a lesson."

That's an insult to your own intelligence!

I'm shy?

Pshaw! I'm just a kid, what's wrong with shopping at a lingerie store?

We dare to go to the women's bathhouse.

I was dazzled by the sheer variety; they were all so colorful and varied, big and small, many and few, with a complete range of styles.

But the older sister ended up playing a prank. She deliberately held up a piece of lace with the least amount of fabric, the most delicate pink color, and the newest style, and then suddenly pulled herself into the dressing room, saying that she had to button it herself.

This isn't just buttoning up clothes; it's poisoning the future of our nation's flowers! It's an eyesore!

It looks good, but is it suitable for children to watch?

This behavior made the older female shoppers in the store laugh non-stop—this brother and sister are really funny. The girl is really pretty, but is it effective to amuse her little brother?

Zhou Xiaobai covered his face, unable to bear to look—this is truly a disgrace to our Zhou family.

Putting aside the jumbled thoughts in his mind, he thought of An Qianqian again.

He was overjoyed; from now on, An Qianqian would be his niece.

As if on cue, his mind immediately registered Anxixi's call.

Zhou Xiaobai was taken aback, then flashed into the space.
