The Lovely Heiress Is Actually A God Beast

Chapter 1077: Chapter 1077: Punk, Are You Deaf?

Little Taotie was taken by Mo Haihao to study, still in the archive room, but this time not to look at archives, but to read the Classic of Mountain and Sea.

The Classic of Mountain and Sea that Mo Haihao handed her was very heavy, with a metal-crafted cover and pages made of different materials, including wood slices, bamboo slices, stone slices, iron slices, cloth pieces, paper slices...

Little Taotie was reading for a while when Hua Jinyan arrived.

Hua Jinyan placed a big box on the table and took a breath, ”I’m late.”

Hua Jinyan came back from his grandparents’, while Little Taotie went on a concert tour, he made a trip home, first visiting his paternal grandparents and then his maternal grandparents.

”Hua Jinyan?” Little Taotie widened her eyes, ”You’ve gained weight!”

Hua Jinyan’s face was indeed rounder.

A touch of red climbed up Hua Jinyan’s pale face, ”The elders seem to enjoy feeding me, and if I don’t eat, they get disappointed...”

Talking too much about it only brings tears.

His grandmother and maternal grandmother both love cooking and making snacks. Once they finished, they’d put them on the table. Even though he was already very full, he couldn’t resist tasting in their eager eyes, and since he tasted, he couldn’t just take one bite and put it down.

If he only took one bite and put it down, they’d think they didn’t make it well and might remake it all over again.

The only way to put them at ease was to eat it all and show that it was delicious.

But actually, this isn’t a good method either because eating too much, showing that he liked it a lot, upon leaving, he’d find himself forced with a trunk full.

”These are egg rolls and cakes my grandmother and maternal grandmother made, try some.”

Hua Jinyan opened the big box, which was full of snacks.

Little Taotie’s eyes lit up, she put on disposable gloves and started eating.

The little girl picked up an egg roll and ate it like a little hamster.

”Tasty!”

It had a strong milk flavor and a hint of sesame, but the sesame didn’t overpower the milk, crispy and crunchy.

Seeing she liked it, Hua Jinyan smiled lightly, ”Next time I visit their house, I want to take you along.”

With Little Taotie there, he wouldn’t have to force himself.

Little Taotie being so appreciative would surely make his grandmother and maternal grandmother very happy.

Xiangxiang came over, ”Little Taotie, the Head is looking for you, go to his office.”

Little Taotie lifted her head from the big box, her mouth full of egg roll crumbs.

”Pfft!” Xiangxiang laughed, took out a tissue to wipe her mouth and hands, ”Go quickly.”

Little Taotie nodded and hopped off to find Head Grandpa.

The fiery red fox on her shoulder jumped down, lazily unwilling to follow.

Little Taotie turned back to Hua Jinyan, ”Look after Feng Qi for me.”

Feng Qi gave the kid a sidelong glance, muttering internally: Do I need his care?

Hua Jinyan had long noticed the spiritual fox on Little Taotie’s shoulder, but since Little Taotie seemed to like it so much, he didn’t say anything.

Xiangxiang went to attend to other matters, leaving only Hua Jinyan and Feng Qi in the archive room.

Hua Jinyan flipped through the Classic of Mountain and Sea, without saying a word.

In the quietness, only the sound of pages being turned could be heard.

Aside from when she’s sleeping, Feng Qi isn’t a particularly quiet fox. She cleared her throat, hoping to catch the boy’s attention.

Unfortunately, Hua Jinyan didn’t spare her a glance.

”Ahem, ahem, ahem...” Feng Qi coughed harder again.

Still, no one paid her any mind.

Feng Qi suddenly jumped onto the table, slapping a paw on the Classic of Mountain and Sea, ”Hey, are you deaf?”

Hua Jinyan finally shifted his gaze from the book page, his eyes calm and deep like an ancient well, lightly landing on Feng Qi.
