After listening to Xiao Huo's heartfelt confession, Mo Yi didn't even have time to reply before the other person turned into light and returned to Mo Yi's mental world.

Well, it seems that even though Xiao Huo doesn't show any expression, she's still quite shy.

This is understandable. Many people can easily say "I love Dad" or "Mom" to their parents when they are young, but when they grow up to be teenagers, they can no longer say it and dare not express their feelings.

"Alright, we can go down now."

As for Xiao Huo's specific abilities, we can find out from him later.

Mo Yi called out, only to find Kiana and Miss Mei both standing there, their faces grim and uncertain.

Mo Yi walked over, waved his hand twice in front of the two women, and asked, "Are you alright?"

Kiana: Suddenly another pet girl has appeared, competing with me for my affection. I'm not happy!

As for Miss Pufferfish, Kiana started making a huge fuss, demanding that Kiana switch places with her so she could teach that white fox a lesson. Well, Kiana was pretty used to it anyway, so she just ignored her.

As for Miss Mei's inner thoughts, it's just a daily routine.

He roared inwardly, carefully analyzed the advantages and disadvantages of both sides, thought of countermeasures, and then intensified his inner turmoil, as familiar as breathing.

A new storm has arrived, how can I Mei, stand still!

"Fine?"

Miss Mei smiled slightly and said:

"I'm just a little curious—"

Okay, Mo Yi roughly understood what Xiao Huo had just done.

"Uh (⊙o⊙)..."

I only briefly mentioned Xiao Huo before, but didn't explain it in detail. Xiao Huo will be Mo Yi's family in the future. Although she doesn't take up a room and usually stays in Mo Yi's mental world or works hard in the Late Night Diner to increase her strength, it is still necessary to make things clear to Miss Mei. As for Kiana, just ignore her.

Anyway, Kiana will soon find out that, in addition to Miss Mei Yue Xia, Mo Yi's family has another Xiao Huo who doesn't need to pay rent.

Everyone's showing off, whether they're human or ghost, but I, Kiana, have to pay rent.

"Small fire is my new ability—"

To be honest, Mo Yi couldn't explain it either. Anyway, Little Fire was actually one of Mo Yi's abilities. Just like other things can become sentient, so can abilities. In the end, he explained it by referring to the explanation of Stand User and Stands.

"So that's how it is—"

Kiana nodded. This time she really understood. Wasn't it just like her relationship with Miss Pufferfish?

Miss Mei breathed a sigh of relief, realizing she had been overthinking things.

Little Fire is the manifestation of Mo Yi's ability; in essence, it's a part of Mo Yi's body. It seems I'll have to get along well with Little Fire in the future.

Xiao Huo is a part of Mo Yi. In other words, increasing Xiao Huo's favorability is equivalent to indirectly increasing Mo Yi's favorability.

Kiana suddenly had a bold idea and remarked:

"So, does that mean you'll have your partner do things like laundry and cooking?"

"I'm so envious!"

Kiana was already tempted. In fact, during these days, she had used Miss Pufferfish's power to increase the speed of her food delivery, making her seven or eight times faster than usual, so she had a lot of free time every day.

As for seizing some takeout territory, the takeout market in Changkong City has already been almost completely divided up. The reason she was able to contract the entire eastern suburbs was because of her status as Cultivator.

Of course, I have also had 'amicable negotiations' with others because of this.

Kiana then wondered if she should start a new business: after delivering food, she could also deliver packages.

The secret to her increased efficiency lies in the fact that she previously relied on the acceleration effect of the 'time rift' to increase her speed. With Miss Pufferfish's help, she has entered the Imaginary Space and is moving within Imaginary Space, indirectly shortening the distance considerably.

If Xiao Huo really becomes Mo Yi's 'nanny', she can say to Miss Pufferfish, "Look at other people's 'stand-ins' and look at you! Hurry up and do my laundry!"

Mo Yi: "..."

I don't believe you for a second!

I finally managed to max out Xiao Huo's affection level, isn't this just digging my own grave?

Countless examples demonstrate that to become a qualified big boss, one must treat one's sons and daughters well, otherwise, it will be one's descendants who ultimately lead to one's downfall. Examples include the Signal Axe, the Divine Axe of Falling Cherry Blossoms, Frostmourne, and the Backstab of Justice.

Mo Yi's mind even automatically filled in the blanks.

Mo Yi, lying on the ground, looked at Xiao Huo and asked incredulously:

"Little Fire, what are you doing?!"

Holding the cleaver that was flashing with light, Xiao Huo said to Mo Yi, who was lying on the ground, "Of course, I'll inherit your throne."

"If you want it, just tell me."

Mo Yi pleaded:

"This is you. If you put down the knife, you will still be my good daughter."

"The birth of a new King of Cinder cannot be without bloodshed—"

Xiao Huo raised the kitchen knife in his hand and said emotionlessly:

"It said, 'You can go now.'"

"Goodbye, my father, and my cowardice."

By the time Mo Yi thought of this, the three of them had already returned to the second floor.

Then, the landline rang.

"Splash splash splash—"

"The phone is ringing, I'll go answer it."

Kiana was always the most enthusiastic about these kinds of things, so she ran down and answered, "Mmm-hmm—"

"Okay, I'll tell Mei."
