Chapter 270
Charlotte said those things when teaching Chu Wangshu because she didn't want her daughter to feel any psychological pressure. But she never expected her daughter to learn it in one go. While she was pleasantly surprised, she was also somewhat worried.
Chu Yuanqing was nestled intimately against Little Cotton-padded Jacket Saintess lady's lap, feeling short of breath. Her mind was filled with shame at the thought of dying in the company, and she felt none of the worry that Charlotte had.
The reason is simple: she's been through this stage before.
When Chu Yuanqing first arrived in the new world, she was already plagued by a curse. She couldn't possibly have been unaware that this suffering might one day extend to her daughter.
But after 17 years of struggle with the Sea of Truth, there has been no sign of anything like this, which is enough to prove that the curse will not continue before the collapse of [Pure White].
On the other hand, the Sea of Truth only corrects the perspective it presents, affecting the variable of "entropy".
Once Chu Yuanqing dies, the Disaster Tide that has been suppressed for 17 years will arrive as scheduled, and the biggest variable will be corrected.
At that time, as long as the daughter wasn't powerful enough to shatter a star with a single strike and wipe out the Disaster God in one go, the Sea of Truth wouldn't be able to "see" her at all, and its attention would be completely diverted from this planet.
In short, it's just needless worry.
Chu Yuanqing voluntarily crawled out of bed. Her pure white hair was a little messy, but because it was so smooth, she shook her head slightly and regained her dignified appearance. Her delicate and beautiful face was serious, with a hint of relief.
The Pure White Witch has gentle eyes and brows. If you ignore her moist and soft lips, which are as alluring as flower petals, and the lingering mist in her eyes, she looks like a wonderful and caring older sister.
The Little Cotton-padded Jacket looked somewhat bewildered, unsure whether the CPU in her brain was working or not.
Seizing the opportunity and matching the Saintess's rhythm, Chu Yuanqing patted the child's head and earnestly lied:
"Xiao Shu is really amazing. I just made a bet with Charlotte not long ago that you wouldn't even notice me after you left."
Chu Yuanqing wasn't stupid. She understood that since things had already happened, the only way to avoid social humiliation was to act like Charlotte and show a completely normal attitude!
Well, as long as you act confidently and come up with a plausible reason, your innocent and naive Little Cotton-padded Jacket won't think in any strange or unusual directions.
--Although their current appearance looks rather suggestive.
"Oh, has Xiao Qing been staying in Charlotte's room the whole time?"
Chu Wangshu hesitated for a moment before realizing what was wrong. She glanced at the two people's posture and felt that something was off, but because she had been praised, she couldn't figure out what was wrong.
Charlotte said matter-of-factly:
"Oh right, I'm the one who hid Xiao Qing under the covers."
"How about that? Before you activated your Supernatural Senses, even if you could manipulate magic, Xiao Shu wouldn't be able to see the magic I spread in the air, right?"
Chu Yuanqing pressed on, adding in a serious tone:
Charlotte originally intended to play a prank, but after hearing that Xiao Shu wanted to improve quickly in this area, she went along with it and kept me under the covers, betting that I would definitely be able to find her.
Using this excuse to fool children or bully the idiots is somewhat like trying to fix things after the fact.
But the problem is that the Little Cotton-padded Jacket has an unbreakable filter of love for Chu Yuanqing.
This filter blends the qualities of a good friend, a mother, a caring older sister, and the beautiful elements of purity, elegance, reliability, gentleness, and trustworthiness, making it incredibly powerful.
Therefore, when Chu Yuanqing explained, the girl didn't even consider the suggestive aspects; she believed him without hesitation and nodded thoughtfully.
"Oh, I see. So what were Xiao Qing and Sister Charlotte doing just now?"
Chu Wangshu looked at the two of them curiously and continued to ask:
"And both of your faces are so red, did you take a shower together?"
Charlotte thought the Little Cotton-padded Jacket was so innocent and pure, and felt an even stronger urge to pinch her cheeks. She said with a smile, as she gently squeezed the girl's soft, white face.
"Yes, I forcibly dragged Xiao Qing into the bathroom and made her try on swimsuits one by one to see which one looked best. Xiao Shu, would you like to try it too?"
Chu Wangshu felt the warmth of Charlotte's fingertips, and her cheeks flushed after being pinched for a while. She shyly took a few steps back, avoiding her mother's excessive caresses, and, showing her unwillingness to be treated like a child, put on a serious expression and said:
"Sister Charlotte, let's talk about the swimsuits another time. We're still in the course phase."
Charlotte was immediately disappointed after being rejected. Her eyes dimmed and her expression was sad. She looked like a gentle mother who could only shed tears in the kitchen after being bullied by her rebellious daughter.
Upon seeing this, Chu Wangshu immediately panicked. She felt that she had said the wrong thing and was extremely guilty. She quickly tugged at the sleeve of the Saintess and explained in a low voice that she did not dislike Charlotte's intimacy, but just did not like being treated like a child. She also agreed to let Charlotte choose the swimsuit.
Well, the Little Cotton-padded Jacket was clearly tricked by the Doomsday Diva and agreed to a bunch of things she wouldn't have otherwise agreed to without thinking.
Chu Yuanqing watched as her daughter was completely fooled by her own mother, and even saw Charlotte happily rubbing against her daughter and then secretly making a peace sign with her hand. He sighed inwardly, feeling that Xiao Shu had been completely controlled by Charlotte.
After that, Charlotte got back to the main topic and began to check on Chu Wangshu's progress in learning Meditation Method, and started to answer many of her daughter's questions during meditation.
Now that Chu Yuanqing no longer had to hide under the covers, she could openly participate in the discussion. Although she didn't know magic like Charlotte, nor did she understand the Countermeasures Bureau as well as Charlotte, she could still fill in the gaps and naturally became a little teacher.
Thus, without Chu Wangshu realizing it, she happily spent a pleasant night under the guidance of her parents, only returning to her room to sleep near dawn, still feeling unsatisfied.
Chu Yuanqing watched the child close the door and leave, finally letting out a sigh of relief and saying with relief:
"Luckily, I got through it, otherwise I wouldn't know how to face Xiao Shu."
Charlotte hugged the Pure White Witch, her nose brushing against the soft tea buds, inhaling the cool, Zen-like fragrance that grew warm and alluring with her body heat. She puffed out her cheeks and gave the soft skin a quick kiss, then declared with undisguised confidence:
"What's there to hide? Just confront Xiao Shu directly. Tell her that the beautiful girl in front of her, with white hair, golden eyes, gentle and pretty, big breasts, long legs, and a body age that's actually a year younger than her, is actually her Dad!"
"It's a bit rushed, but that way I can convince the child to call me 'Mom' today!"
Upon hearing this, Chu Yuanqing couldn't help but tap Charlotte's head. Embarrassed and annoyed, she shoved Xia Ludi's face away, tugged at her torn collar, and ordered the lantern-carrying servant to ram into her hard whenever they encountered Charlotte again. Then, she said irritably:
"You just want to hear Xiao Shu call you 'Mom,' don't you? It's not Charlotte who's going to die, so you obviously don't care. Besides, there's no way Xiao Shu would accept it right away. She'll just think our relationship is messy, and she might even lose interest in us."
Charlotte hugged Chu Yuanqing with a pitiful expression, blinking her beautiful, opal-like eyes and revealing a childlike, innocent look as she complained in a spoiled tone:
"But I just want Xiao Shu to call me 'Mom' sooner."
"I really wanted to say it so badly, I almost blurted it out just now."
"You see, from the perspective of an intellectual older sister, even giving her a hug requires a lot of thought and finding many opportunities, otherwise it would easily seem like overstepping boundaries."
Chu Yuanqing's heart softened at Charlotte's coquettish words. She gently stroked Charlotte's pale blue hair and whispered:
"Yes, I know. I understand that Charlotte likes Xiao Shu very much and wants to make up for the maternal love she has missed for so many years as a mother. But please give me some time, and give Xiao Shu some time too, okay?"
"That child seems slow-witted, but she's actually very perceptive. Even if she knows nothing about the truth, she can instinctively pinpoint her target. Whether it's me or you, she subconsciously has the same affection she has for blood relatives, which is why she was so easy to approach from the beginning."
"So, even if we don't say anything, she'll figure it out sooner or later, and this process of guessing is precisely the buffer period for Xiao Shu to gradually accept the truth."
Chu Yuanqing paused, then said softly:
"Also, although it sounds sentimental, I still want to explain these things to her personally as her father, and I hope you can understand."
Charlotte kissed the girl's lips and whispered:
"Xiao Qing is so cunning. Now that she's said that, I can't refute her at all. But as compensation, you have to finish what you didn't do earlier!"
The girl's eyes were upturned at the corners, and her kaleidoscopic pupils were tinged with the colors of spring. Her breaths became long and alluring. Her bathrobe was lifted, revealing her smooth and beautiful shoulders, and her silk nightgown, full of folds, accentuated her graceful curves.
The Saintess was completely unconcerned about her fallen state. She wrapped her arms around Chu Yuanqing's neck, bit her delicate earlobe, and whispered:
"After Xiao Shu interrupted me just now, I felt even worse, my body was in a limbo. You need to take responsibility as a husband properly, and you're not allowed to use such underhanded methods as injecting magic this time."
"I don't want to Magic Replenishment Xiao Qing's mana, I just want to do it with Xiao Qing."
While feeling ashamed, Chu Yuanqing also found Charlotte, who so readily admitted to such a thing, quite endearing. She was like a young widow whose deep desires had been awakened, yet she had also abandoned the comfort of morality, making it impossible for her to resist such temptation.
But considering the date, the girl still hesitated and said:
"It's so late now, and it's Monday. Xiao Xuan is probably already in bed waiting for me."
Although this is a completely scumbag statement, ignoring the possibility that his Golden Haired Doggy is waiting for him would only make things worse.
Between two evils, choose the lesser.
The Pure White Witch has accepted the reality that she will be building a harem.
Offering water and ensuring relative fairness, while taking everyone's feelings into account, is a compulsory course engraved in one's obligations. Breaking a promise to someone without a suitable reason is undoubtedly the most undesirable thing to do.
Charlotte thought for a moment after hearing this, then turned over, crossed her legs, and fumbled for her phone by the bedside. She unlocked the screen while still lying down, found Xie Qingxuan's message box, clicked on it, and typed:
"Xiao Qing is in my room, do you want to come in?"
Three seconds later, the profile picture flashed, and several messages were sent:
Do you need to bring props?
"Should we bring Yayoi and Liuli?"
The Doomsday Diva looked at the Golden Haired Doggy's soul and asked a question. She glanced back at the pure and innocent Qing Bao and assessed the little old-fashioned personality. She felt that unless there was a special situation like yesterday, the music party would not be able to be held for a while. However, the two of them together could barely manage.
So she typed a reply:
"Just bring Xiao Xuan along, Xiao Qing is a bit too rigid."
Charlotte put away her phone and said:
"All done. Now Xiao Qing can do it without any guilt, right?"
After making her extremely explicit statement, the girl looked at the large bed with satisfaction and continued:
"Hmm, Xiao Meng prepared a great place. The beds in everyone's rooms are big enough for four or five people to lie down. Maybe we can check in in everyone's rooms before we leave."
Upon hearing these appalling remarks, Chu Yuanqing felt that he himself was becoming appalling.
However, not long after, Xie Qingxuan walked in, making the atmosphere even more strange.
The girl's face was aloof and noble. She walked in with a calm expression, habitually locking the door behind her. Her shimmering platinum blonde hair was tied into a ponytail, slightly fluffy and soft. She wore a yoga outfit without a chest binder, barely revealing any skin, yet showcasing her best features to the fullest.
At least, Charlotte immediately looked on with envy when she saw the full, rounded curve.
Xie Qingxuan had just finished showering; her fair skin glowed in the light. Her usually expressionless face softened when she looked at Chu Yuanqing, revealing a contrasting cuteness. She asked thoughtfully:
"Xiao Qing, so you like doing things with three people?"
Just as Chu Yuanqing was about to retort, he saw this person continue to fill in the blanks in his mind:
"That's true. If it's a matter of exchanging bodily fluids, Xiao Qing's magic power is so abundant that it would fill everyone up in no time, making it difficult to feel satisfied."
The Golden Haired Doggy looked serious, and she seemed to be making a promise, swearing:
"It's okay, I will try my best to become more capable and do my best to satisfy Xiao Qing."
Chu Yuanqing couldn't hold back any longer. She felt like she had been described as some kind of sexually frustrated young widow, and immediately covered the person's mouth in shame, explaining:
"It's not what Xiao Xuan imagines, Charlotte just wanted to come too!"
Xie Qingxuan looked at Charlotte with innocent eyes, trying to get confirmation.
The Doomsday Diva coughed a few times mischievously, then said in a deliberately serious tone:
"Xiao Qing, you can't just shift the blame. Facing your desires honestly is a required course for Magical Girl."
The Golden Haired Doggy suddenly realized what was happening and looked back at Chu Yuanqing, only to see that the other party had already pounced on Charlotte and was severely punishing the fallen Saintess.
Xie Qingxuan, lacking experience, sat to the side observing and learning, while also opening her phone to search online for the correct way to play a three-person party.
During this period, the Magic Replenishment and the intelligence was reduced.
The Golden Haired Doggy noticed the tattoos on the two people's lower abdomens for the first time.
Forget-me-not -not, rose of Sharon.
The girl blinked, seemingly lost in thought.
Ah, isn't this the Soul Flower of Qing Bao and Charlotte?
Could it be... that after officially awakening her Soul Flower, she will also be able to leave her mark on Xiao Qing?
Meanwhile, on the second floor of the castle, in Chu Wangshu's room.
The Little Cotton-padded Jacket had just finished washing up, completely unaware that her biological parents and stepmother were engaged in a battle. She happily opened the tablet in her bag, looked at the recording she'd listened to in class, and asked in confusion:
"Huh? The recording hasn't been turned off yet?"
P. S.: I went out for hot pot in the rain last night, and I woke up today with an upset stomach and a bit of a cold. It's still raining and so cold outside! Waaah, can't I just go back to summer?!

Chu Wangshu paused and saved the recording, looked at the two-hour recording, rubbed her eyes, and yawned sleepily.
