Chapter 523 - 357 Hungry, Need to Eat!

He Meijing waited for ten days.

Although she didn’t dare to get close to the main hall, nor did she dare to use her spiritual power.

But her perception was still very keen.

The main hall was set up with multiple layers of arrays.

"They must be doing something important!"

"It’s almost ready."

He Mei’s expression was serious, but when she saw the pastries she had just made, her face instantly turned into a smile.

Not only Lan Meng’Er liked her pastries, but even Xiaoqi, who was only a few months old, liked to eat a little.

This just gave her an opportunity.

The so-called perfect timing, location, and harmony were all on her side, she thought.

"Control the little one first, then everything will be easier."

A hint of coldness flashed in He Mei’s eyes, considering this as taking interest for the Purple Cloud Spirit Fox clan.

She then carried the jade tray and headed towards Ning Garden.

...

"Come, Xiaoqi, come to Third Lady, there’s something tasty?"

In the room, Xiaoqi stood in the middle, with Lan Meng’Er, Luan Ying, and Gu Pengyou standing in three different spots.

At this moment, Luan Ying was holding a piece of candy, shaking it continuously to lure him towards her.

"You’re cheating, you can’t use items."

Lan Meng’Er immediately protested.

Because Xiaoqi was already drooling at the sight of the candy in her hand.

"That’s not fair, you didn’t say that beforehand."

She finished speaking and gave her a provocative look.

"Hmph!"

"If you don’t put it away, I’m going to feed it to him!"

This was her secret weapon, better than anything else.

"No, no!"

"You’re cheating, that’s not right."

Luan Ying quickly became flustered but obediently put the candy away.

If she were to use that trick, it would be game over.

"Come, Xiaoqi, to Fourth Lady!"

Gu Pengyou clapped her hands, attracting Xiaoqi’s attention.

Meanwhile, Ning Xin sat on the side watching this scene with a smile.

Ever since Chen Xuan refined his avatar, the few of them had nothing to do, so they started thinking of ways to entertain Xiaoqi.

The household had become much more joyful.

Indeed, having a child at home brings happiness.

"Xiaoqi, come to your mommy, and you’ll have a full meal and a good night’s sleep."

Indeed, a mother’s affection is unmatched, as Xiaoqi, who was originally looking at Gu Pengyou, immediately turned his head to her.

"Eat...Eat..."

He said in his babbling voice, drool dripping down his clothes from the corner of his mouth.

His little feet slowly started moving towards Lan Meng’Er.

"Xiaoqi, Xiaoqi..."

Seeing this, Luan Ying quickly called out.

But it was no use now, seeing Lan Meng’Er open her arms, his little feet moved even faster.

"Yaya...Eat...Mama..."

He clapped his hands excitedly.

Ning Xin looked at Xiaoqi’s adorable appearance and revealed a motherly smile.

Although not her own, she wasn’t any less loving than Lan Meng’Er.

After all...Xiaoqi’s first word "mama" was directed at her.

This matter made Lan Meng’Er quite jealous for several days.

"Quick, quick, Xiaoqi!"

Lan Meng’Er called out with a smile.

Her eyes were filled with Xiaoqi’s smiling face.

After all, a mother always finds her child adorable.

What’s more, Xiaoqi was not only cute but also very smart.

Compared to other children, being able to crawl at five months is already impressive, but Xiaoqi could already walk.

What was even more astonishing was that he had reached a realm a month ago.

At that time, they were all stunned, only Chen Xuan remained calm.

Because Xiaoqi’s elder brother, Chen An, was even more of a prodigy, with a Purity Body, reaching the Seventh Grade Realm in ten days.

"Oh...I won!"

Xiaoqi finally walked up to Lan Meng’Er, who happily hugged him immediately, "Xiaoqi is always best with his mommy."

"Such a good boy!"

"I’ll reward you with a full meal tonight."

Lan Meng’Er rubbed her cheek against his little hand and kissed him several more times, feeling as if her heart was melting.

"Hmph!"

"You little ingrate, Third Lady is always so good to you and even plays with you."

"Third Lady is upset now and has decided not to take you out to play for a day."

Luan Ying made a funny face at Xiaoqi.

"Yaya...Mama..."

This call for "mama" made Luan Ying unable to resist, "Oh, my little sweetheart, Third Lady will take you out to play."

"Xiaoqi sure is amazing, he made Third Lady concede right away."

Gu Pengyou touched Xiaoqi’s chubby little face with her fingers and said with a smile.

"Greetings to the ladies!"

At this moment, He Mei came over with the pastries.

"Ah, Xiaoqi, the delicious treats are here."

Luan Ying immediately smiled at Xiaoqi when she saw He Mei, then waved at He Mei, "Come over!"

He Mei lowered her head slightly and walked over.

"Here, Xiaoqi, these are your favorite pastries."

Luan Ying held a piece in front of him as a sample.

But unlike before, when he would instantly reach out for those white pastries, this time was very strange.

He didn’t even smile.

His little eyes even showed a look of disdain.

"Huh?"

Luan Ying looked at Lan Meng’Er and the others in confusion.

"What’s wrong with Xiaoqi this time?"

Ning Xin, who had been sitting down, slightly raised her eyebrows, then immediately stood up and walked over.

She looked at Xiaoqi!

Then she looked at the pastries!

"Oh no!"

He Mei’s heart skipped a beat.

What’s going on?

The soul seed she planted shouldn’t be detectable, could it be him?

A few-month-old baby?

But whether it was true or not, the opportunity to plant the soul seed was gone.

So, with a thought, the soul seed hidden in the pastries instantly dissipated.

At this moment, Ning Xin just picked up a piece of pastry and smelled it under her nose, "It’s not spoiled!"

Then she nodded slightly at Luan Ying.

"Got it, Sister Xin’Er."

With that said, a stream of spiritual power extended out to carefully inspect each piece of pastry.
