Baby Serendipity: The Whole World Fell In Love With Me-Chapter 543 - 542: You Must Learn to Grow By Yourself
Chapter 543: Chapter 542: You Must Learn to Grow By Yourself
Mianmian said let’s all have dinner together, and everyone was very happy.
Black Tortoise ordered so much food that several tables were filled. The head chef’s dishes were so good and fragrant that they made everyone there drool.
Thankfully, the family in the little fishing village had plenty of plastic stools, or there might not have been enough seats.
"You have so many friends?" Black Tortoise frowned.
Mianmian smiled like a little fox, "Yes, they are all my good friends. Isn’t it nice to have lots of company, right, Uncle Xuan Wu."
Black Tortoise didn’t say anything else.
[Hahaha, I haven’t seen a meal like this in a long time, I really miss such feasts, and Black Tortoise’s expression is so funny.]
[The sight of country folks’ meals must have shocked our ancestor, huh.]
[I think so too, Little Auntie has no choice when hosting, after all, our Little Auntie is so popular.]
The meal got to his head, and perhaps it suddenly occurred to him, Hu Zhengguo stood up, holding a drink in front of Black Tortoise.
His actions made everyone tense. Although they did not know Black Tortoise’s real identity, anyone who could suddenly appear in the fishing village and be on good terms with Mianmian, and anyone who knew Mianmian was formidable, could guess that Black Tortoise was no ordinary being.
Liu Hui and the others couldn’t help but break out in a cold sweat for Hu Zhengguo.
"Ancestor, I’d like to offer you a drink in place of wine!" Hu Zhengguo also looked very nervous, his face flushed red, "Thank you for saving us earlier, I represent the nearby residents in thanking you."
Black Tortoise stared at Hu Zhengguo for a while, and just as Hu Zhengguo couldn’t take it anymore, Black Tortoise picked up a drink from the table, compared it with Hu’s, and downed it in one gulp.
Then he raised his glass to show he had finished it.
Hu Zhengguo didn’t expect Black Tortoise would give him face; he even thought he would be ignored! Hurriedly, he poured another drink and toasted Mianmian: "Little Auntie, this is for you too. I was inconsiderate before, without you and your friends, I would have been in a terrible state by now."
"Oh, it was nothing," Mianmian mimicked Black Tortoise and raised her glass, "Mianmian hasn’t done her best yet."
Hu Zhengguo then said, "Little Auntie is just being modest, hahaha."
The atmosphere at the scene lightened up instantly, everyone went back to eating, drinking, and chatting.
Mianmian ate later and was not very hungry now, nibbling slowly, and as she did, she glanced at Black Tortoise.
Black Tortoise directly said, "What are you looking at me for?"
Mianmian: "Uncle Xuan Wu looks nice."
Upon hearing this, Black Tortoise showed no extra expression but picked up a chopstick of food for Mianmian, "Eat, the chef of your house isn’t bad at cooking."
This compliment made the head chef, who was also dining with them, beam with joy. She used to receive praise only from mortals for her cooking, but now, to receive praise from a god was quite the day for her.
Just as everyone was enjoying themselves warmly, a wolf’s howl suddenly came from outside the door.
"Awooo Awooo."
Bai Bai led Liao An and the others inside, along with Phoenix Fairy and Rose.
Green was also hanging around Bai Bai’s neck, and everyone was excited.
Mianmian quickly got down from the table to welcome her returning friends: "Uncle Xuan Wu said you were sent out on a mission, what were you up to?"
Bai Bai first glanced at the camera.
Hu Zhengguo hurriedly said, "The camera is off, rest assured."
Hearing Hu Zhengguo speak with such respect, Bai Bai’s tail stood high as they woofed and told Mianmian about what they had been doing these past few days.
Mianmian listened, her eyes wide with disbelief as she looked at Black Tortoise.
Bai Bai explained that Black Tortoise had instructed them to catch some fish from the sea that had consumed her blood, as it required the use of Green’s Space, which is why Green was also called over later.
Now, Green’s Space was filled with many fish that had changed in some way, and it was her responsibility to deal with them.
"Howl, howl." I’ve completed the task, should Mianmian give me kisses now!
Bai Bai wagged its tail frantically, demanding kisses from Mianmian.
Mianmian used the Cleansing Technique on her little friends and then gave Bai Bai a kiss on the cheek, letting him eat.
Having received what he wanted, Bai Bai handed over the Divine Farmer’s Cauldron to Mianmian and turned to ask the head chef for food.
Next in line, Liao An gazed at Mianmian expectantly. Bai Bai had explained everything in great detail, so there was no need for them to report, but they also wanted to receive Mianmian’s kiss as a reward, especially since it had been a long time since they had seen her.
"Liao An?" Mianmian tilted her head, thought for a moment, and realizing Liao An wanted a reward for his task, she cupped Liao An’s face and planted a kiss, and then kissed Ying Fang and Ying Miao as well.
Xiaohu, Dahuang, and Xiaohuang weren’t left out either; they all received their reward for completing the task.
With their goal achieved, the hard-working fish-catching squad from the sea floor finally started to gorge themselves.
Liao An and Little White Dragon sat together.
No sooner had he sat down than he heard the Little White Dragon ask softly, "What did you all go to do?"
Bai Bai’s howl, encrypted, was only understandable by Mianmian. Little White Dragon didn’t know what Bai Bai was saying and only saw everyone receiving kisses from Mianmian, himself not included.
Dragons and snakes inherently have a subtle blood connection. Hearing Little White Dragon’s question, and considering Little White Dragon was now on Mianmian’s side, Liao An decided to answer his question.
Everyone at the table knew the details, so it wouldn’t hurt for Liao An to speak out.
The expressions of those at the table varied as they listened to Liao An’s explanation.
Situ Zha and Yang Xian exchanged glances, both seeing concern in each other’s eyes.
If ordinary fish that drank Mianmian’s blood became different, there might be an issue with Mianmian’s physical body. When Sun Wukong accompanied Tang Sanzang to retrieve the scriptures, Tang Sanzang’s flesh and blood were said to grant immortality, which was actually a hoax. But if Mianmian’s flesh and blood really had that effect, and it wasn’t a hoax, things could get tricky.
Situ Zha was thinking even more than Yang Xian; he was wondering what sort of scheme Heavenly Dao was up to.
Heavenly Dao itself was never anything good.
"Can I get kisses too if I help Mianmian with tasks?" Little White Dragon muttered to himself on the side.
Liao An gave Little White Dragon a firm answer, "Only by getting stronger can you help Mianmian with tasks."
Ying Miao also chimed in, "Don’t overthink it; we’ve been through being controlled by others before. Mianmian won’t be mad at you, but we have to learn to grow on our own."
After a few words from the little ones, the atmosphere felt much better.
Suddenly, Black Tortoise said to Mianmian, "Your friends seem very united."
Mianmian very seriously replied, "Yes, our buddies are indeed very united."
Black Tortoise, "Since when did I become part of ’our’ relationship?"
Mianmian gazed at Black Tortoise with a joyful expression, "Uncle Xuan Wu’s eyes say it, and by the way, Uncle Xuan Wu, tomorrow Mianmian wants to find the Golden Hoop Stick. It misses its master, and Mianmian wants to see if it’s really there."
Upon hearing this, Hu Zhengguo sported a troubled look, "Little Auntie, we’re not done filming our variety show yet, there’s still two days."
He had scheduled a whole week, but if Little Auntie ran off, wouldn’t she take all the viewership with her?
