Cultivation Pet Shop-Chapter 865 Seeking Treasures (1)

Since this was a matter that concerned Xin'er, Lin Fan couldn't hide it from Angela.

So the first thing that he did after coming back to the store was have a talk alone with Angela.

No, the first thing that happened to him after he came into the store was that he was dragged away by Angela for his punishment.

Luckily Xin'er didn't come alone since Angela didn't want her to see what she was doing to Lin Fan, so Lin Fan was able to get to a room alone with Angela.

He immediately told her everything that happened, not just out of concern for Xin'er, but also to save himself from his punishment.

After Angela finished hearing everything, she had a dark look on her face as if she was planning on doing something drastic.

Lin Fan had a bad feeling when he saw this look on her face, so he immediately stood in front of her and asked, "What are you planning on doing?"

Angela just coldly looked at him and said, "I'm doing what needs to be done."

Lin Fan knew immediately that she was planning on using force to solve this and he immediately grabbed her to stop her from going anywhere.

Angela didn't try to break free, but the way that she glared at him was like being pierced by many different sharp blades.

Lin Fan couldn't help shrinking back under that gaze, but he still firmly held onto her, not loosening his grip on her arms at all. He knew that the moment that he let go even in the slightest, she would break away and solve this her way.

With how much stronger she was, there was no way that he would be able to stop her.

So he quickly decided to use reasoning to stop her, "You know that if you do this, we won't be able to stay here anymore. Not just that, it will be unlikely that we'll be able to escape this place safely with Xin'er. You know that I can't use the door and it's impossible for Xin'er to use that door."

Angela gave a cold snort when she heard this.

She knew that if she was serious, it wasn't a problem for her to destroy a Stellar Kingdom or two.

But she knew that Lin Fan also had a point. Not to mention that there was still the master of the store that was here.

If she did this, she would not only ruin Lin Fan's future, but would also ruin the plan of the master of the store.

This was not something that she could bring herself to do.

So after taking a long breath, she finally said, "What do you suggest we do then?"

Lin Fan first gave a sigh before also taking a long breath to say, "For now, we don't do anything."

She narrowed her eyes to look at him. Lin Fan could clearly see the doubt and annoyance that was in her eyes.

Lin Fan explained, "The ones that are looking for Xin'er have entrusted the task of looking for Xin'er to me, so I will be able to control things and impede them as much as possible. Right now, if we rush this matter, it will expose information about us that we don't want exposed. So the only thing that we can do is wait and see how the situation develops while gathering information as well. After all, we don't even know why they are looking for Xin'er, right?"

Angela knitted her brows when she heard this, but after a while, she nodded in agreement.

Lin Fan felt a tinge of pain fill his heart when he saw her like this, but there was still something that he wanted to say. After a long period of hesitation, he finally said, "Not to mention…there is a chance that her birth mother is still alive."

Angela looked right at Lin Fan with wide eyes when she heard this.

She raised a hand and Lin Fan couldn't help flinching since he thought that she was going to hit him again, but then she put both her hands in front of him. The way that she was standing, it almost seemed like she was asking for a hug.

Seeing this, Lin Fan's heart filled with even more pain as he understood the feelings that she was currently feeling.

After all, an adopted mother could never compare to a birth mother. Especially one that hadn't been an adopted mother for long.

If Xin'er's birth mother were to appear now, she as the adopted mother would lose to the birth mother.

But she also wanted Xin'er's birth mother to be alive since she knew how hard it was not to have a birth mother…

So she was feeling very conflicted after hearing this.

Lin Fan took her in his arms and patted her on the head, comforting her as much as he could, but he still felt that slightly cool and wet feeling coming from his shirt.

The two of them just stayed like this for a while before Angela finally calmed down.

After calming down, she asked, "What do we do now?"

Lin Fan gave a sigh and fell into deep thought for a bit before saying, "How about we go out together, just the three of us. We haven't had an outing as a family yet, so we should seize this chance while we can."

Angela couldn't help looking at him with a surprised look before saying, "Are you sure that we can do that now? Isn't it an important time for the store?"

Lin Fan shook his head and said, "It's fine, the kids have been training, so they can handle the store by themselves for a day."

Angela nodded in agreement to this since she had been watching the kids during the day. They had indeed slowly learned everything that they needed to learn to run this store during this time.

It would actually be a good test for them to run the store by themselves for a day.

She was about to say something else, but before she could, Lin Fan said, "We'll leave Yuki here with them. You know how she feels about those five sisters, so we can just leave her to watch over them."

Angela looked at him before agreeing with a nod, "Un, it would be good for her and them."

After a long period of silence, Angela gave another nod and said, "Let's do it then. We can head out tomorrow after the morning rush."

Lin Fan nodded before taking her in his arms again.

After a short period of silence, he said, "You know, it's been a while since we've had some alone time. How about we…"

Before he could finish, Xin'er's voice rang out from outside the room, "Mom, are you done punishing dad?"

Lin Fan couldn't help revealing a bitter smile when he heard this.

Angela just looked up at him with a faint charming smile and said, "Sorry, Xin'er is calling."

Then without even giving him a chance to say anything, she left his embrace and walked out of the room.

Lin Fan shook his head with the same bitter smile as he thought to himself, "It seemed like it was true. Once you had children, it was impossible to get any free time for yourself."

But at the same time, he couldn't help feeling a warm feeling in his heart. 𝒇r𝙚𝙚𝓌𝙚𝑏𝗻𝑜𝘷𝗲𝘭.c૦𝑚

He could finally understand what his mother and father felt when they raised him.

…

The next morning.

After the morning rush, Xin'er excitedly pulled Lin Fan and Angela by the hand as they headed out of the store.

Once she learned about their plan to have a special outing with the three of them, she was so excited that she almost couldn't sleep. In fact, she had only gotten half the normal amount of sleep that she normally got.

However, even with this reduced sleep, she was still filled with energy as she pulled Lin Fan and Angela out.

Kids really didn't tire out unlike adults…

Behind them, Xiao Tu couldn't help revealing an envious look.

He was forced to stay in the shop with Yuki to watch over it while the three of them headed off by themselves.

Still, he felt happy for Xin'er after seeing the happy smile she had on her face. f𝒓𝗲𝗲𝒘𝑒𝚋ｎoѵ𝒆𝗹.co𝗺

Xin'er dragged them out of the store, but then she revealed a confused look as she didn't know where they were heading. Lin Fan and Angela had only told her that they were going out for an outing, but they never told her where they were going.

So she slowed down and turned around to look at Lin Fan and Angela before asking, "Where are we going?"

Seeing her cute appearance, Lin Fan and Angela couldn't help revealing smiles.

But then they took her hands and Lin Fan said, "Should we go?"

Xin'er looked up at them and gave a nod with a happy smile.

Lin Fan and Angela headed off with Xin'er in between them. No matter how anyone looked at them, they seemed like a very happy family that was enjoying a day together.

But the only difference was that the three of them were all far more beautiful than normal people were.

Lin Fan was a handsome young father, Angela was a beautiful young mother, and Xin'er was their pretty little daughter.

Wherever they went, they attracted people's attention.

While most of them were just happy to watch them, there were those that had bad intentions towards them.

They quickly made their move as well.
