Looking for her youngest uncle

Meimei had long fur, and Qin Yan tied it into two little pigtails sticking straight up.

She even decorated them with little sunflower hair clips.

"Pretty."

She held Meimei, with those two little pigtails, up to the mirror.

The tiny mouse admired its reflection and nodded in wholehearted agreement.

"Just what you'd expect of me!"

So full of itself.

It had turned into a Treasure-Seeking Mouse anyway. What else could it do but stay cheerful and optimistic?

Putting Tuantuan on her head, Qin Yan held Meimei and took the newly made soap from today, ready to go find her eldest uncle.

Today's soap smelled of tea.

The scent wasn't strong, but it smelled lovely.

First, she went next door to check on Fubao.

"Fubao, your scales are getting prettier and prettier!"

By now, Fubao had shed the title of ugly fish.

The fins that had looked corroded before had grown back, a particularly beautiful pinkish white.

Almost all the pitch-black scales on its body had fallen off, and pinkish-white scales had grown where the earlier ones had fallen.

The once-ugly little fish was now transforming into something beautiful.

Qin Yan put her finger in the water.

Fubao immediately swam over, opened its mouth, and took it in.

"Fubao, these are for you to eat too."

After letting the little fish suck on her finger for a while, Qin Yan tossed three grape-like spirit fruits into the large fish tank.

"Hurry up and get pretty."

The little girl encouraged it in her soft, sweet voice, and Fubao swished its tail even more happily inside, as though responding to her words.

Only after checking on Fubao did Qin Yan head downstairs with her collection of extraordinary animals.

"Good morning, Grandpa."

"Good morning, Mr. Butler."

The little girl affectionately greeted everyone she saw, her good mornings almost like sweet little pleas for affection.

Old Master Fu sat down with her in his arms. "Good morning to you too, Yanyan."

"Come on, let's have breakfast."

Qin Yan obediently nodded.

To her surprise, Old Master Fu had even prepared breakfast for Meimei.

"I didn't know what Meimei liked to eat, so I had them prepare some fruit, nuts, and things like that."

He even told Qin Yan to put Meimei right on the table.

Meimei was very satisfied. It ran over and plopped down with its little legs spread, sitting in a thoroughly uninhibited pose.

Then it picked up a nut and started gnawing.

Under this body's influence, it naturally liked foods such as nuts too.

"Fruit with spiritual energy is good for your health. Little one, let's get those seeds planted soon."

Qin Yan held a small piece of bread in one hand, while her other little hand carefully spread strawberry jam evenly over it.

At those words, she nodded.

The first piece of bread she finished went to Grandpa.

"Here, Grandpa."

Old Master Fu only wished his old friends were there beside him at that moment.

He wanted to show off, but had nowhere to do it.

No, he had to post on Moments too.

First, a photo.

Heh, he was better at this than his eldest son.

Qin Yan didn't notice what her grandfather was doing. She was still making little jam-covered pieces of bread. After spreading jam on one, she tore off a piece and offered it to Meimei.

"Here, Meimei."

Meimei immediately chattered away, showering her with praise without repeating a single compliment.

Qin Yan's eyes curved, her smile wonderfully sweet.

"Grandpa, where are my uncles?"

After finishing the little cake she had spread with jam herself, Qin Yan started looking for her uncles.

Old Master Fu said, "Your eldest uncle went to the office."

Earlier, Qin Yan had been trapped in a nightmare and slept for three whole days.

Fu Yunting hadn't gone to the office for those three days either, yet in that short time, a mountain of work had piled up there, waiting for him to deal with it.

He would probably have to work overtime.

"Your Younger Uncle is outside."

Qin Yan had filled her little tummy and gave it a pat.

It bulged a little.

But she was utterly satisfied.

Holding her grandfather's hand, Qin Yan said in her babyish voice, "Grandpa, let's take a little walk."

Old Master Fu laughed heartily. "All right, Grandpa will go out for a walk with you."

Once outside, Qin Yan specifically went looking for her Younger Uncle.

She didn't walk very fast, first going to check where the cats and dogs were.

Her Younger Uncle wasn't there.

When she left again, a string of cats followed with their tails raised and dainty steps, along with dogs wagging their tails.

It was quite a sight.

Huh? He wasn't here either.

Qin Yan patiently searched several places before finally finding her Younger Uncle.

She had tired herself out walking.

Panting slightly, she pressed her little lips together and kept moving her short legs.

She even tried hard to pretend she wasn't very tired.

At that moment, Fu Nanshan was sitting cross-legged on a large-looking rock.

He preferred loose white clothes, and today was no exception: he wore a white training outfit.

As he meditated, everything around him seemed to grow quiet.

The sunlight shone on him, making his whole figure look sacred.

Qin Yan approached quietly with little steps.

Without disturbing him, she found a spot below the rock and crouched down, propping her little chin in both hands as she tilted her head up to watch her Younger Uncle.

Already tiny to begin with, she was now a tiny little bundle.

My Younger Uncle is so handsome~

Suddenly, Fu Nanshan opened his eyes and lowered that cool gaze toward her.

In the sunlight, his pupils seemed to turn a beautiful gold.

Their eyes met. Qin Yan's were big, round, and dewy, and she stared blankly, not yet reacting.

Only after several seconds did she belatedly realize she had been caught sneaking looks at him.

The pretty little girl's face and ears immediately turned a faint pink, and she lowered her head, trying to curl up and hide herself.

A trace of amusement flashed through Fu Nanshan's eyes.

He rose and jumped down from the large rock, as light as a swift.

Her head was rubbed, and Qin Yan poked out her little furry head from where she had tucked it away, stealing a cautious glance at him.

"Younger Uncle."

Qin Yan squeezed Meimei's little paw. "I got tired walking, so I'm resting here."

"Mm."

He held out his hand.

Qin Yan stared with wide eyes at the ridiculously beautiful hand before her, thought for two seconds, then placed Meimei on it.

Fu Nanshan: ...

Meimei: ...

"Little one, what are you doing? Don't you love me anymore?!"

The little golden hamster's fur bristled.

Qin Yan stood up awkwardly. It seemed she had misunderstood.

Her little face grew even redder.

Then she quickly scooped Meimei back up and, in her fluster, clumsily put her little chin in his hand instead.

Once she had done that, she froze again.

?(???w???)?

What on earth was she doing?!

Fu Nanshan couldn't help letting out a soft laugh.

He scratched her chin with his fingers.

The flesh beneath her chin was soft, and a peach-blossom blush still colored her skin, making her look just like a fresh, juicy peach.

"Let's go home."

This time, Qin Yan finally put her tiny hand in his.

Her Younger Uncle's fingers were slightly cool, like a piece of soft jade.

His large, slender hand enclosed her soft little one.

Fu Nanshan walked slowly a little ahead, and Qin Yan kept close beside him.

A group of furry animals followed behind.

Fu Nanshan didn't speak along the way, looking as cool and quiet as ever, but he never let go of Qin Yan's hand.

Meimei, on the other hand, chattered away, with Qin Yan occasionally responding.

It was an especially harmonious scene.
