No matter how much she stubbornly refused to admit it, how would these three astute men not know that she really had forgotten what had happened inside the Mystic Beast Forest.
However, seeing that she did not plan to say anything in order to save face, they just kept mum.
Mo Lian coughed lightly and changed the topic with a smile, saying, “Qiaoqiao, it’s great now. Now that Little Fatty has woken up, you don’t have to worry anymore.”
Qiao Mu immediately fished out the little white squirrel and stroked its head.
The little squirrel nuzzled her hand happily before turning to glare at Mo Lian. “Who is Little Fatty!”
“You.” Mo Lian suddenly reached out to lift it by the tail so that it hung upside down. He then said to it with a contrived smile, “Your body seems to have the aura of a sacred beast, although it is so faint that it is practically imperceptible. But you… are a bit strange.”
The little white squirrel hastily tucked its head and wriggled its small body, flailing its limbs as it wailed, “Masta, Masta, Little Masta! Ahhh!”
There is a monstrous big brother here who wants to seize me!
Qiao Mu twitched her mouth as she swatted Mo Lian’s hand away, placing this little fat squirrel on her knees. Afterwards, she gruffly cast the man a glance. “Stop bullying it all the time!”
Yet seeing that this little fat squirrel was clambering to snuggle in the little fellow’s bosom, Mo Lian narrowed his eyes before promptly plucking it up and flinging it away once again.
“Piu…”
Qingluan covered his mouth and cackled up his sleeve.
“Masta!!” The little fat squirrel fled toward her as pitiful tears streamed down its cheeks.
How did it dare climb all over its master’s body again under Mo Lian’s oppressive stare? It could only hop onto the little fellow’s shoulder and squat there well-behavedly, motionlessly petrified.
Qiao Mu propped her chin up with both hands and said with a sigh, “I’m a bit troubled, so stop making a fuss.”
Seeing that she was a bit fatigued, he reached out to help her massage her temples. “Qiaoqiao, if you’re tired, go rest a bit in the room.”
“You’ve been cultivating from morning till night during this period of time. You weren’t able to eat well nor sleep soundly, so let’s nurse you back to the pink of health, okay?” Mo Lian asked gently.
Qiao Mu nodded. She also needed to make time for a trip back home. After all, her dad and mom were probably worried for her.
*Boom, boom, boom.* At this time, the giant ape had trodded over, flumping down next to her on its butt.
Qiao Mu swept it an unhappy glance, ignoring it in a huff.
“Qiaoqiao, where did this ape come from.” Duan Yue really was awfully curious.
Although Qiaoqiao was unwilling to tell them, a lot of things must have happened after she came out from the secret realm.
Darling Qiao harrumphed before sweeping the giant ape a glance. “This guy? Picked it up in the forest.”
The trio instantly looked at her like she was an immortal.
Could this child be even more bizarre?
After randomly wandering around the forest for several days, she not only picked up a phoenix egg, but also a giant ape of remarkable strength?
“Why wasn’t I able to pick up anything when I went to the Mystic Beast Forest for practical training?” Situ Yi lamented dejectedly.
“Hahaha.” Duan Yue couldn’t resist guffawing. “Can you compare to our Qiaoqiao? Our Qiaoqiao is someone who inherently possesses spectacular fortune!”
Situ Yi scratched his nose before nodding in agreement. “That is indeed the case.”
“Oh, that’s right, Little Junior Sister, do you still remember…” Before Situ Yi could finish speaking, he saw Duan Yue and Mo Lian both turning around to glare at him.
“Cough.” Situ Yi faked a cough and instantly shut his mouth.
