An excuse... an excuse...
Damn it, I had to be able to find one first!
Jiang Shuyue was about to faint. Perhaps passing out now really was the best solution.
By the time Zhou Yunshen emerged from the bath, he already knew Huahua had taken human form.
He figured fooling everyone else would be easy enough. At worst, they could say a distant relative had dumped the child on them.
The problem was that his wife needed an excuse to fool him, which made things a little troublesome.
This time, this place-it really was rather awkward.
Zhou Yunshen knew how to broach the subject, too, but could only stare at Huahua.
Huahua was very nervous, screaming inwardly, Stop staring at me! I'm scared!
Jiang Shuyue smiled awkwardly. "Um... husband, if I said Little Lao Liu brought him to me in its mouth, would you believe me?"
Huahua nearly fainted on the spot.
You might as well say I grew out of the ground!
Little Lao Liu wasn't an ostrich. Could it carry a six-month-old baby like him in its mouth?
Perhaps even Little Lao Liu had never imagined it was so powerful!
Zhou Yunshen hesitated for two seconds, then suddenly smiled just as her heart leaped into her throat.
"So that's what happened. He's quite a good-looking child. Perhaps someone couldn't afford to raise him and abandoned him at our door. Then let's raise him."
Jiang Shuyue: ???
[Huh? He believed it? He believed it? He actually believed it!]
Huahua looked equally stupefied, unable to believe what he had heard.
Huahua: [Have I become a fantasy, or has the world become one? Has the Great Villain's IQ dropped to zero?]
Zhou Yunshen was helpless, too.
He knew this excuse was absurd beyond belief, but what could he do?
