"I don't quite understand what you mean. By child, you mean...?"
Dongfang Huaizhu shook off that utterly unreliable thought, feeling that she must have overthought things, and looked at Fu Hua before her in confusion.
As for whether she could take care of a child, Huaizhu could not answer with certainty. She herself was only a teenage girl, but ever since her younger sister was born, she had practically been the one caring for her. She probably had some experience.
"I mean the Fu Hua from just now."
With no intention of hiding it, Fu Hua answered directly.
"Ah! You mean our benefactor? But our benefactor doesn't look like a child..."
Dongfang Huaizhu suddenly looked rather adorably blank. Although she had felt that Fu Hua's gaze was somewhat unusual earlier, she had only thought she was overthinking it. Yet now Fu Hua was saying this.
Sentience Fu Hua clearly did not look much younger than she was. She absolutely could not be considered... a child.
"Ahem~~ It's a long story. Although Little Senti doesn't look young now, the truth is... she was born less than two months ago!"
Given what she knew of Dongfang Huaizhu, Fu Hua was not afraid that she would spread the matter around, so she explained it directly. Besides, if she did not make things clear, it would be difficult to ask Huaizhu for this favor.
As for Dongfang Qinlan beside them, Fu Hua did not particularly care... She would leave a Fenghuang Down feather on her. If anything went wrong, Fenghuang Down would directly seal the relevant memories.
It was not that she did not trust Dongfang Qinlan. It was simply that children... tended to speak without restraint, unable to distinguish what should and should not be said. It was better to be safe. In
