The Darling of Heaven Owns a Rip-off Shop-Chapter 443: Sunflower Facing the Apocalypse 6

"Oh, you’ve grown little hands? So cute. Did I ever teach you the old saying about keeping distance between sexes? Was I really that traditional in the past?" Xu Yuxi whispered.

"I’ve also cultivated feet." After saying this, Little Green stretched out a pair of small feet and stood upright in Xu Yuxi’s palm.

"Wow! Our Little Green is truly amazing, you even have hands and feet now." Xu Yuxi genuinely praised,

"Master, I have something important to tell you. You should hurry home." Suddenly, Little Green said very seriously.

"Okay, wait for me, I’ll get up and wash up now. Why did you call me ’Master’ again?" Xu Yuxi placed Little Green down, "Wait for me here like a good boy."

...

After breakfast, Xu Yuxi and Zhou Shiqiu returned to the city. They said goodbye and went their separate ways.

Before leaving, Zhou Shiqiu said to Xu Yuxi, "Yuxi, if anything comes up, contact me by phone. Don’t keep things to yourself, okay?"

"Got it. Don’t worry, don’t worry." Xu Yuxi nodded.

After taking a cab home, Xu Yuxi eagerly took Little Green out and cradled it in her palm, exclaiming, "Little Green, I thought I was dreaming. But there really is such a thing as past lives and this cultivation world?"

"Yes. Yuxi, were you unhappy before I came?" Little Green’s tone was full of concern.

"A bit." Xu Yuxi didn’t speak the truth, only said it tactfully because she feared Little Green might worry, then smiled, "But now things are different, Little Green is here."

"Is that your mother?" Little Green stood in Xu Yuxi’s palm, reaching out a little hand, pointing to a large photograph on the wall.

"Yes." Xu Yuxi cradled Little Green and sat on the sofa, sighed, "In this life, I have a mother who truly loves me, but her health is not good. After conceiving me, the doctor advised her to consider her health and not to have the child. But she steadfastly decided to give birth to me. Her love for me is pure and profound. As for my father, he’s not a good match for my mother. Little Green, do you understand what I’m saying?"

"I do. Little Green is very smart now, having seen a lot of things." Little Green nodded slightly, though he didn’t really have a head, the whole Jade Pendant body shook up and down.

"My father is what one could call a ’Phoenix Man.’ He actually had an affair when I was little, maybe due to his ridiculous pride? Anyway, I have a half-brother, only a year younger than me. That mistress is from the same town as my father, and after my mother passed away, she called me once, saying she would be my new mother. Later, my father found out, so that woman never contacted me again, nor appeared before me, and didn’t succeed in becoming legitimate. I guess I should thank my father for having at least a shred of integrity? Haha." Xu Yuxi laughed self-deprecatingly, "That woman probably hasn’t given up, must still be after the huge business my grandfather left behind. So foolish, while the company my father runs is a large asset, she has no idea about the true wealth?"

"Master, don’t be sad. Little Green will always be with you in the future." Little Green jumped onto Xu Yuxi’s shoulder, rubbed her face comfortingly. 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖

"Hmm, I wasn’t sad before, just wasn’t very happy either." Xu Yuxi touched Little Green, smiling, "They think wealth is money and houses. Actually, my mother’s family is a true scholarly family. The antiques, rare books, famous paintings, jade left by ancestors, these invaluable things have been given to me already, now stored in a bank. They can forget about getting a penny from these!"
