Jiang Lan explained earnestly, "Look, you're several years older than Sister Yanyan. I call Sister Yanyan' sister,' so you certainly can't call her 'sister' too. If we're going by age, you should be a generation older than Sister Yanyan, so it's perfectly reasonable for me to call you 'auntie.'"

Doro peeked out from behind Jiang Lan, holding an Ju Zi in his short hands, and added insult to injury, "According to the human generational hierarchy, that's certainly true. Besides, your face turned red with anger when you were carrying him just now, and you almost got wrinkles. You need to take better care of yourself."

wrinkle.

Qian Renxue's fingers unconsciously touched the corner of her eye.

She's only in her early twenties, the most beautiful age for a woman, with skin so firm and smooth you can't even see her pores. How could this little white ball of a head say she has wrinkles?

Qian Renxue took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the anger that was rising in her throat. The smile on her face became gentle yet dangerous again, "What you said is very true, and it makes perfect sense. Since I'm an aunt now, it's perfectly reasonable for an aunt to discipline a disobedient child, isn't it?"

Jiang Lan and Doro both took a step back.

"What... what do you want to do? Let me tell you, I have powerful backers. My elder brother is the Sea God, my master is Poison Douluo, and my Mom Bo Saixi, is the Sea God Douluo. If you dare to lay a finger on me, Sea God Island will issue you Sea God wanted poster tomorrow!" Jiang Lan said, trembling slightly.

He always felt that this woman had ulterior motives towards him.

That pervert deserves to be electrocuted hard.

Qian Renxue took a deep breath, calmed herself down, and said, "Do you want the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud?"

Jiang Lan nodded quickly.

Seeing Jiang Lan nod, Qian Renxue smiled and said, "Then become mine."

Jiang Lan instinctively covered her chest, her face filled with terror, and said, "No, I'm still young."

Qian Renxue: "..."

Qian Renxue's smile froze once again as she looked at Jiang Lan's small hands tightly clutching his chest, and the terrified expression on his face that seemed to say, "You pervert, stay away from me!"

Looking at Doro peeking out from behind him, his large purple eyes filled with a look of blaming reproach, he felt that he had been wronged more tonight than in the past twenty years combined.

"I mean, become my partner." Qian Renxue gritted her teeth, spitting out each word slowly and deliberately. "What on earth is going on in your head?"

"Ju Zi." Jiang Lan hadn't even lowered her hand from her chest when Doro answered for her, his voice tinged with pride. Jiang Lan nodded vigorously in agreement, the hood of her Penguin Suit bouncing with her movements.

Qian Renxue closed her eyes.

She needed to calm down, but every time she opened her eyes and saw the penguin chick, her blood pressure would spike.

Qian Renxue simply closed her eyes and said, "I'll help you obtain the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud, and in return, you should prioritize cooperating with me when handling matters within the Heaven Dou Empire. Is this deal fair enough?"

Jiang Lan lowered her hand from her chest, tilted her head, and thought for a moment, "Then what do you want me to do? Let me make this clear first, I won't do bad things, I won't steal, and I won't bully the weak. Mom Bo Saixi said that one should have a bottom line."

"I don't need you to steal, and I don't need you to rob." Qian Renxue opened her eyes.

She looked at Jiang Lan and suddenly gave him a meaningful smile.

You'll find out in the future.

Jiang Lan thought for a moment and said, "My mother told me something."

Qian Renxue asked curiously, "What is it?"

Jiang Lan said in a serious tone, "Mom said that the smaller the breasts, the more deceptive they are."

Qian Renxue: "?"

Hearing Jiang Lan's words, Qian Renxue was completely bewildered and didn't quite understand what Jiang Lan meant.

Jiang Lan glanced at a certain part of Qian Renxue's face and tsk tsk.

Following Jiang Lan's gaze, Qian Renxue glanced down at her chest, then abruptly raised her head, her stunningly beautiful face turning from snow-white to bright red in a visible flash.

She instinctively raised her hand to block it, but the towel was wrapped around her properly, so there was nothing to cover up.

What really infuriated her was that look, that "tsk tsk tsk," and that glance from head to toe followed by a shake of the head.

"What are you tsk about!" Qian Renxue's voice split again.

Qian Renxue grabbed Jiang Lan by the back of his penguin onesie, lifted the disgusted little guy into the air, and pinched his chubby cheeks with her other hand, pulling him outwards.

"What do you know, you little brat! This is called a standard! Don't you understand what a standard is?!"

"Ugh... Mom Bo Saixi said... telling the truth would get you beaten... it's true..." Jiang Lan's mouth was stretched into an oval shape as she mumbled incoherently, her two short little legs kicking wildly in the air.

Doro had already cleverly jumped behind the vase next to him, only showing half of his head and a pair of big, purple eyes that were watching the show.

"What kind of nonsense did your Mom Bo Saixi teach you?!" Qian Renxue felt she had never been so out of control in her life, throwing all her plans for infiltration, her gentle prince persona, and her image management to the winds.

She's currently a pitiful woman whose blood pressure has skyrocketed from being repeatedly attacked by a six-year-old child.

"She also taught me... not to judge a book by its cover..." Jiang Lan struggled to squeeze out a complete sentence from her distorted mouth, "So Auntie, even though your breasts are small, don't worry, I won't dislike you because of that! You still have your good points! For example... for example..."

He tried to come up with an explanation for a long time, but still couldn't come up with anything convincing.

Qian Renxue released her grip on Jiang Lan's cheek, placed him back on the ground, then slowly squatted down, placing her hands on his shoulders, her face bearing that gentle yet chilling smile.

"Jiang Lan, listen up. First, I'm not calling you 'Auntie.' Second, my size is perfect; I don't need a six-year-old to evaluate me. Third, do you still want the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud?"

"Boss, I was wrong. I won't laugh at you for being young anymore. From now on, we're partners." Jiang Lan readily admitted defeat.

Qian Renxue looked at the penguin chick in front of her, whose expression changed faster than turning the pages of a book, and her anger suddenly dissipated.

She was squatting on the ground, the edge of her bath towel damp with water droplets splashed from the floor, her long, golden hair half-wet and draped over her shoulders, looking disheveled and exhausted.

The young master of the dignified Spirit Hall was almost driven mad by a six-year-old child; who would believe it if I told them?

"Okay, partner." Qian Renxue stood up and smoothed her wet hair.

Qian Renxue regained the composure that belonged to Crown Prince Xue Qinghe, as if the woman who had just grabbed the child's cheek and roared had nothing to do with her.

"Since you're partners, shouldn't you do your partner a favor first?"

Jiang Lan leaned back warily. "What kind of help?"

Qian Renxue pointed to the hole in the floor that was still emitting cold air. "Fill the hole, now, immediately."
