The Sweetness of the Seventies-Chapter 1158 - 1127: She... is a delicate beauty?

As he spoke, he began to cry with a sense of grievance.

Tears flowed from his small eyes.

"It’s alright, as long as you’re safe," He Tiantian hurriedly comforted, saying that the water in the swimming pool wasn’t very deep, only reaching up to her knees, so she went down and walked over to Little Rotating Turtle to console it.

Little Rotating Turtle wiggled and gently nuzzled He Tiantian’s calf, acting like a child seeking affection.

"Hehe, don’t worry." He Tiantian extended her hand. "Take it slowly, these things can’t be hurried."

Hearing He Tiantian’s voice, Little Rotating Turtle relaxed, no longer as anxious as before.

"Thank you, madam, you’re really kind." Little Rotating Turtle said, "I will try my best..."

Just then, Little Rotating Turtle’s body began to change.

The previously dark stone statue of Little Rotating Turtle started to alter its form. Its head became round and smooth, topped with black hair that was quite long, probably about a foot. Its small eyes grew larger, becoming round as well. Its limbs extended, gradually taking on a human shape...

He Tiantian and the Snake King both watched in surprise, intently observing Little Rotating Turtle without daring to disturb it.

He Tiantian, being closer, could see even more clearly.

Long hair was nothing alarming, and a round face with big eyes wasn’t unusual, at most making it more attractive than the average boy.

But as Little Rotating Turtle’s transformation progressed downward to its lower body, He Tiantian was stunned.

This was a girl about eight or nine years old... and... and she didn’t have any male genitalia...

Similarly, He Tiantian noticed the distinct feminine features of Little Rotating Turtle.

I’m dizzy. All this time, He Tiantian had assumed Little Rotating Turtle was male, only to discover now that it was female!

Seeing such a large child, younger than both Huo Ruihua and Huo Ruimin, she couldn’t help but soften inside.

She also thought of the fact that the Snake King was male and already eighteen. He shouldn’t see this.

He Tiantian quickly circled around to stand in front of Little Rotating Turtle, signaling with her hands behind her back not to come any closer.

Even though the Snake King was very curious, he knew better than to act recklessly and remained where he was.

As Little Rotating Turtle gradually transformed, finally revealing delicate little legs and cute small feet, it then moved its limbs in the water and opened its eyes, exclaiming with surprise, "I’ve completed my transformation..."

The voice was a bit shrill, but it retained its former tone.

Before she could finish speaking, He Tiantian’s coat came down over her, and then He Tiantian wrapped Little Rotating Turtle in it, holding Little Rotating Turtle and saying, "Little Rotating Turtle, I’m going to lift you out, and then I have something to tell you."

In Little Rotating Turtle’s heart, she probably didn’t yet realize she was a girl, or maybe she wasn’t even aware of such concepts.

"Madam, you are so kind." When Little Rotating Turtle spoke again, her voice had transformed into that of a young girl, and it sounded innocent and gentle.

Little Rotating Turtle scratched her head in astonishment and asked, "Why has my voice changed?"

The Snake King was taken aback, ran over, and finally saw Little Rotating Turtle clearly, saying in disbelief, "She... she is a girl?"

He Tiantian smiled and, still holding Little Rotating Turtle, said, "Yes, we can’t call her Little Rotating Turtle anymore. We should call her Xiao Xuanxuan!"

"What?" The Snake King looked confused. Was this really his old buddy whom he had treated like a brother?

Little Rotating Turtle was also taken aback, then asked cautiously, "I... I’m a girl, just like Ruimin?"

"Yes, it’s a girl," He Tiantian said, "From now on, you’re my daughter."

"I dare not, I dare not," Xiao Xuanxuan hurriedly responded, "I’d rather be a little maid."

The Snake King’s mind was a whirlwind, still unable to wake from reality. No wonder He Tiantian blocked his view and wouldn’t let him go over—turns out...it was a delicate beauty!

"Impossible... Impossible..." The Snake King staggered away.

"Thank you, Snake King," Xiao Xuanxuan said sweetly and naively, "Madam, please put me down, I can walk by myself."

He Tiantian chuckled, "I’ll still carry you. We’ll go to the bathroom, give you a bath, and put on some pretty clothes. I’ll think of a way in the next few days to see if I can get your paperwork sorted out."

Since she had transformed into a human, she had to integrate into society.

In the bathroom, He Tiantian filled a basin with hot water, then placed Xiao Xuanxuan into it to bathe her.

Xiao Xuanxuan felt embarrassed and said, "Madam, actually I can wash by myself, you don’t... don’t need to help me..."

As He Tiantian poured shampoo over her head to wash it, she smiled and said, "Oh, feeling shy, are we?"

"Not shy, not shy," Little Rotating Turtle said, "I just don’t want to be a bother to the madam..."

"Hehe, I’ve told you it’s no bother," He Tiantian said, "Now listen, you’re a girl, a human, so don’t keep thinking that you’re still a Rotating Turtle."

Little Rotating Turtle nodded and said, "Madam, I’ve got it."

But inwardly she whispered to herself, I am Little Rotating Turtle, and I can take human form too.

After rinsing the foam from Xiao Xuanxuan’s body, He Tiantian wrapped her in a big towel, carrying the Little Rotating Turtle into the room.

"Don’t wander off, I’ll go find you some clothes," He Tiantian said. Little Rotating Turtle was about seven or eight years old; she couldn’t wear her daughter’s current clothes, so she had to look for some old ones.

The children’s clothes had all been washed and neatly stored away; they were originally saved for Huo Xiaosan, but Huo Xiaosan refused to wear them, insisting on new clothes instead.

If given old clothes, he’d complain that Dad and Mom were playing favorites...

Such a rascal child...

Nonetheless, Little Rotating Turtle had put in hard work over the years without any merit, so it wasn’t right to give her old clothes just because she wasn’t their biological daughter.

She’ll wear the old ones today, but they would buy new ones tomorrow.

Soon He Tiantian found some clothes and dressed Little Rotating Turtle in a pink pajama that was actually quite fresh, about seventy percent as new.

"Thank you, madam, it’s very pretty," Little Rotating Turtle said, "I like it very much."

Then He Tiantian dried Little Rotating Turtle’s hair and said, "Xuanxuan, you’ve been with us for such a long time, you know that living in human society requires following human rules..."

"Mhm, mhm, I understand that part, madam," Xiao Xuanxuan said, "I will live like a human..."

Live like a human?

Why did that make He Tiantian feel a bit dizzy?

"Er, what you said... makes sense," He Tiantian concurred, "First, we need to get you an identity..."

Little Rotating Turtle was also troubled; what identity would she have to stay in this house?

Especially now, being so young, even younger than the young master, she couldn’t just wander around in human society; she still had to go to school!

Just thinking about it made her scalp tingle!
