Kung Fu Baby with 17 Doting Brothers-Chapter 690: Xiuxiu Wants a Hug

The real Zhen Haowei, who received a ’so lame’ review, is cooking.

In the dining room, Tuanzi is munching on the cookies sent by Wen Qi, like a hamster, ’crunch crunch’, nonstop.

Even if there’s a gap in her teeth, she’s precise with her bites, not letting a single crumb fall on the table.

Her two little short legs are swinging, Tuanzi’s face full of confusion.

[Miaomiao: But, why does the seventh senior brother know face reading, and why do so many people watch our sect’s martial arts videos? These seem worlds apart.]

As far as she knows, their master doesn’t know face reading, and the seventh senior brother does because it was a compulsory course in the big sect of his previous life. As a cook, the real Zhen Haowei wasn’t qualified to learn it, but he often cooked for others, and some very diligent disciples would practice while eating, so he secretly learned part of it.

[Ancient Martial System: It can be explained using brand effect and idol effect. For instance, if you really like a brand of toothpaste and toothbrush, and you buy them frequently, and then, if this brand releases a snack, would you buy it to try?]

Tuanzi tilted her small head, thought for a moment, then nodded heavily.

[Ancient Martial System: If this brand starts selling school bags, would you check it out?]

Tuanzi thought again and still nodded.

[Ancient Martial System: This is brand effect, and idol effect is like, if Jin Lingxiao likes you very much, if you endorse a product, he will definitely buy it without hesitation. More rational fans would buy as needed, while less rational ones will buy blindly.]

Tuanzi swallowed the last cookie, suddenly realizing.

[Miaomiao: Because everyone likes the Heavenly Cloud Sect, finding out that the sect has face reading unrelated to martial arts, they would still believe, maybe even want to learn, and even find reasons to connect the two?]

[Ancient Martial System: That’s right, some fans actually like the Heavenly Cloud Sect more, while others like martial arts more. If it’s the former, they’ll naturally link face reading to martial arts, consistently providing reputation value. This can also be considered blind worship; after all, if one day you claim to make clothes for sale, they’d buy it without considering practical matters, like whether you’re actually skilled at design.]

Tuanzi kept nodding.

"Got it, got it," she thought of her master, forgetting to converse in her mind, "Like if the master says he can sing too, and charges for tickets, Miaomiao would spend money on them too."

She also has a sort of blind worship for her master!

The system no longer explained. The fortuitous hit by the real Zhen Haowei got the Heavenly Cloud Sect buzzing again. The host could stay at home eating and drinking and still earn reputation value. Its impression of this senior improved a lot.

At this moment, a rich aroma came from the kitchen.

Tuanzi quickly put down the empty cookie box, climbed down from the chair, ran to the kitchen door, poked her small head in to sneak a peek.

The real Zhen Haowei was plating the dishes.

She couldn’t help but salivate, "Seventh senior brother, there are still two days before we visit Lingxiao, who are you cooking for now?"

Actually, she wanted to ask which extreme the senior brother was in in the "Extremes lead to opposite" state.

"The eighth junior brother."

The real Zhen Haowei carried out several dishes, with a genuine, clumsy smile on his face, "He became a child due to the cultivation technique, maybe eating these will restore him."

Tuanzi has faith in these dishes’ efficacy.

Gu Zhuo and Gu Li ate it and got instant results. Tantai Yi drank two bowls of strange-tasting chicken soup every day, and after sticking to it for so long, the toxins have been completely cleared, the doctors called it a miracle.

Even Jin Lingxiao’s small ailments disappeared after eating it for some time; every day he’s energetic. As editing videos couldn’t consume his energy, he even woke up early every day for a run when there were fewer people in the neighborhood. Food made by the real Zhen Haowei could improve the physique of this homebody, but couldn’t change his aversion to socializing.

As for Ning Jixiu, the sect leader didn’t specify, but everyone roughly knew he went berserk practicing Demon Technique each year, causing his power to dissipate and his body to revert to a child’s state.

Once this happens, he’d hide to avoid being hunted by enemies.

And according to other senior brothers’ analysis, the world Ning Jixiu lived in should be higher than their master’s but lower than the real Zhen Haowei’s world.

Although Ning Jixiu keeps saying ’I’, Tuanzi can’t help but worry about him.

"Then Miaomiao will call him down for a meal."

Tuanzi eagerly went upstairs and soon dragged down the reserved and unwilling to accept the food Ning Jixiu.

The little boy, looking three years old, cried out.

"Let go, how could you treat me with such disrespect?"

Tuanzi beamed as she dragged him to the dining room, picked him up into a hug, and placed him on a chair.

The little boy’s face turned red instantly, unable to utter a word of reproach.

He wasn’t even hugged like this when young, but now, as a three-year-old with a twenty-three-year-old mind... gah, this junior sister is so annoying!

Suddenly, he sniffed, his eyes involuntarily turned towards the few dishes on the table. 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖

Getting this sect leader to admit the food looks delicious is impossible.

He lifted his chin gracefully, "Made for me?"

Tuanzi puffed her cheeks, disliking the eighth senior brother’s tone. What’s more, the seventh senior brother worked so hard to cook, the eighth senior brother’s attitude is a bit impolite.

She was about to punish this arrogant eighth brother when she heard the sincere voice of the real Zhen Haowei, "I made it especially for you, even the second senior brother wants to eat it and can’t."

Tuanzi blinked; it sounded a bit odd.

Hearing that, Ning Jixiu looked even more pleased.

Holding back, he picked up the chopsticks, took a slice of meat, and tasted it, his eyes shone brightly.

No exaggeration, it was the most delicious meal he ever had. But how could a demon sect leader with the wrong mouth admit it? He only silently sped up his eating pace.

Upon seeing this, Tuanzi understood; the seventh senior brother’s culinary skills had swung to another extreme.

Another extreme, she gulped, wanting to eat too.

"Junior sister, no rush, I’ll make some for you tonight."

Tuanzi held back. Seeing Ning Jixiu enjoying his meal, she went outside to enjoy the autumn breeze.

The cool breeze cleared her mind.

[Miaomiao: No, the seventh senior brother actually doesn’t want Miaomiao to eat this meal. Is the side effect of this meal not thinking she’s a fat penguin?]

She got excited at the thought, sneaked back inside, and crouched outside the dining room to peek.

Ning Jixiu was lost in the deliciousness, unaware of being watched. Small as he was, he ate a lot, and after some effort, finally finished the dishes, sluggishly trying to climb down from the chair.

His little legs barely touched the ground when, with a ’thud’, Ning Jixiu sat on the floor crying.

"Boo hoo, Xiuxiu wants master! Xiuxiu wants a hug from master!"

Tuanzi: (○o○)

Stunned, as Tuanzi looked on, Zhen Haowei seemed possessed by the first and second senior brothers, taking out his phone to start recording. Even at this moment, he still maintained his wholesome and reliable demeanor.
