"Sir, I'll tell you a secret, but you can't tell Dad, okay?"
Hearing Liu Wenjun's words, a glint flashed through Mu Qingling's eyes. Then she whispered into Liu Wenjun's ear.
"Please rest assured, Little Master. I definitely won't tell Master. Just go ahead and tell me."
Liu Wenjun became interested after hearing Mu Qingling's words. He wanted to know what secret this little girl had that she was being so mysterious about.
"Sir, look at this."
A bottle of Coca-Cola appeared in Mu Qingling's hand. She spoke to Liu Wenjun mysteriously; it was precisely the bottle of Coke she had added Purple Blood Spirit Melting Flower powder to earlier.
"Coke?"
"Little Master, you didn't steal this from Master, did you?"
When Liu Wenjun saw the bottle of Coke in Mu Qingling's hand, he became excited all over. However, Mu Feiyang had previously forbidden Mu Qingling from drinking too much Coke.
Now that a bottle of Coke had appeared in Mu Qingling's hand, Liu Wenjun naturally guessed that she must have stolen her Master's Coke.
Otherwise, there would have been no need for this little girl to make such a mystery of it.
"Sir, how could you say that? I specially brought this to show my respect to you. But it seems Sir doesn't like it very much, so I'd better return it to Dad."
Mu Qingling put on a sorrowful expression and moved to put the Coke away. Yet before she could do so, Liu Wenjun had already snatched it from her.
"Don't be angry, Little Master. Sir was wrong to say such foolish things. Since this is a gift from Little Master, I naturally cannot refuse Little Master's kindness."
This was the Coke he had been longing for day and night. How could Liu Wenjun possibly return it to Mu Feiyang?
So what if it had been stolen? It was not he who had stolen it. Besides, what could Master do even if he found out after Liu Wenjun had finished drinking it?
"Since Sir likes it, then I'll give this Coke to Sir."
Mu Qingling spoke somewhat reluctantly, her eyes fixed on the Coke in Liu Wenjun's hand. Seeing this, Liu Wenjun hurriedly twisted open the bottle cap.
"Huh? Why does this cap look like it's been opened already?"
"Shh...!"
"Sir, I secretly took a little sip just now. Don't tell Dad, okay?"
Mu Qingling was startled inside. She had not expected Sir to notice that. She could only answer somewhat embarrassedly.
"Rest assured, Little Master. This is a secret between the two of us. No third person will ever know."
A faint smile appeared on Liu Wenjun's face. This little girl had always wanted to drink it but never gotten the chance. Now that she finally had an opportunity, it was perfectly normal for her to sneak a sip.
Liu Wenjun whispered the same to Mu Qingling, then tipped his head back and took a huge gulp of Coke.
Gulp, gulp, gulp...
"Ah!"
"Refreshing! It's still this taste. It truly deserves to be called Happy Water!!"
Having finally tasted Coke again, Liu Wenjun could not help sighing. He had never expected that he would get to drink the Coke he had been yearning for today.
"If Sir likes it, drink more. Once Dad comes out of seclusion, I'll ask him for more. Sir definitely won't be short of Happy Water from now on."
"Haha...!"
"Little Master is so sensible. Then I'll have to rely on Little Master from now on."
Originally, Liu Wenjun had planned to satisfy his craving and then put the Coke away to drink another time. After all, once he drank it today, who knew when he would get another chance?
But after hearing Mu Qingling's words, Liu Wenjun burst into laughter. Then he took several more sips from the Coke in his hand.
Liu Wenjun screwed the cap back onto the Coke bottle. Mu Feiyang had said before that Happy Water would not taste good once it went flat.
Just as Liu Wenjun tightened the bottle cap, his expression froze. Then he suddenly collapsed face-first onto the table.
"Sir, Sir."
Seeing Liu Wenjun lying on the table, Mu Qingling gently pushed his body. Yet Liu Wenjun remained motionless, sprawled across the table.
"Yay!"
After pushing Liu Wenjun several times and seeing that he still did not move, Mu Qingling immediately jumped up from her chair.
Mu Qingling jumped down from the chair and darted around the courtyard. She gathered all the vegetables Mu Feiyang had planted, along with some of the fruit growing in the courtyard, into her spatial ring.
After collecting everything, Mu Qingling returned to Liu Wenjun's side. With a wave of her hand, she sent Liu Wenjun back to his room, then put away the Grill Rack as well.
"Little Black!"
Woof woof... woof woof woof!
Little Black had been watching Liu Wenjun suddenly faint. When he saw Mu Qingling's actions afterward, the corner of his mouth could not help twitching.
No wonder Little Master had gone to the Thunder Mountain Range to pick Purple Blood Spirit Melting Flowers. So it had been to deal with that kid. But Little Black simply could not understand why Little Master was doing this.
Hadn't they been happily eating barbecue just now? How had she suddenly drugged that kid unconscious?
"Little Black, let's go out and find Mom. I have to find Mom and bring her back."
Mu Qingling swung herself onto Little Black's back and finally revealed her purpose. But upon hearing her words, Little Black was startled inwardly.
He finally understood why Little Master had drugged that kid unconscious. She wanted to go out and find the mistress. Yet Little Black did not dare agree at once, instead asking the companions in the courtyard.
If he took Little Master out and Master came out of seclusion later and blamed him for it, would he not be finished?
"Old Ancestor, what should I do now?"
Little Black could not help sending a voice transmission to the Bodhi Tree Old Ancestor. Its cultivation was the highest here, and the Bodhi Tree Old Ancestor was also the wisest one.
"You decide for yourself!"
"As long as you ensure Little Master is safe, that will be enough. I can sense that Master's seclusion this time is not simple. Little Master probably just wants to go out and have some fun."
"Take her out for a turn. Once she fails to find the mistress, she will naturally want to come back."
The Bodhi Tree Old Ancestor did not try to persuade Little Black to stop Mu Qingling from leaving. Even if it tried, it would be useless, because none of them dared disobey Mu Qingling's words.
Moreover, Mu Qingling had made so many preparations that she had even drugged her own Sir unconscious. There was no way she would give up this chance to leave.
Therefore, as long as Mu Qingling's safety was guaranteed, there was no problem with letting her go out and play for a while.
"Little Black, hurry up and go!"
Seeing Little Black standing there without moving, Mu Qingling could not help smacking him once, urging him to set off quickly.
She did not know how long the Purple Blood Spirit Melting Flower would last. If Sir woke up, then her plan would go down the drain.
Woof woof... woof woof woof!
Little Black had no choice but to bark twice and head outside. He knew he definitely could not stop Little Master.
He might as well trust the Bodhi Tree Old Ancestor's words. Besides, even if he did not take Little Master out, it would be even more troublesome if she ran out by herself.
With him following Little Master now, he could at least ensure her safety.
