Little Linglong's eyes rolled, and suspicion appeared on her face. "Oh?"
Seeing how sly she was, Xu Changqing immediately smiled. "Daddy has never lied to you. Why don't you believe me?"
Little Linglong turned to the puppet Starter Lady beside her and asked, "Auntie Starter, is it true?"
The puppet Starter Lady chose silence between her master and little master.
Pretending she could not speak, she went about her work.
Yet the more she acted this way, the deeper the suspicion in Little Linglong's eyes grew.
Seeing that she still did not believe him, Xu Changqing pondered for a moment. "Good daughter, didn't I say I would take you to meet your mother?"
At those words, Little Linglong froze. Then her frail body suddenly began to tremble. "I-I'm going to see Mother?"
From childhood to now, she had never seen her.
She had only tried her hardest to piece together her appearance from the scattered fragments of Daddy's words.
She had waited day after day, year after year.
At first, she could still visit Cangyan Peak to lift her spirits, but in the end, it could not withstand her endless longing.
Xu Changqing beckoned to her. "The time has come. Your mother and I both happen to be free, so our family of three can finally meet."
What wine? Little Linglong instantly tossed it to the back of her mind.
After leaving the Duel Platform, Ruo Qunshuang deliberately made a trip to Flower Sea Market and bought many brightly colored flowers. Before she even entered the door, she habitually called out, "Brother Qing, I'm back!"
Yet when the door opened with a creak, the one who came out was not Xu Changqing, but a small figure.
She resembled a human, but her skin, eyes, and head were different.
She staggered.
