The Sweetness of the Seventies-Chapter 1159 - 1128: It’s Okay, I Can Play Dumb

Little Rotating Turtle pondered and felt a bit disheveled by the wind.

What was he to do now?

He Tiantian also found it somewhat difficult and asked, "Do you have any spells left?"

Little Rotating Turtle nodded his head and said, "Yes, madam!"

"Then have Snake King come over without letting others see," He Tiantian said, "Now, the only one who can discuss matters with me is Snake King."

Little Rotating Turtle thought about it and nodded repeatedly, "Alright, I’ll call Snake King over."

After all, Snake King had been mingling in the Human Realm for a long time and was of the same kind; he would understand better.

After finding out that Little Rotating Turtle was a delicate maiden, Snake King was in a daze as he returned to his room and sat on the chair stupidly.

But how... how could that be a delicate maiden?

It had clearly been a man’s voice before, hadn’t it?

That scoundrel Huo Yingjie, why didn’t he say anything earlier?

Suddenly, Snake King remembered that when Huo Yingjie left, he handed the house over to Little Rotating Turtle and instructed him to watch over the whole family. Would he allow it if it were a male? With Huo Yingjie’s pettiness?

Hell no, he definitely wouldn’t allow it!

Snake King felt like an idiot, just too naive.

Such a simple issue, and he hadn’t figured it out.

Right at that moment, Little Rotating Turtle appeared silently in his room, saw Snake King looking annoyed, and said cheerily, "Snake King, what’s wrong? Aren’t you happy for me? Today is the day of my transformation, and according to the traditions of the Demon Realm, the day of transformation is also our birthday. Since today is my birthday, what gift are you planning to give me?"

He usually saw the young masters receive gifts on their birthdays.

Little Rotating Turtle felt that he only had one friend, Snake King, and they got along well, so he boldly asked Snake King for a present.

Upon hearing this, Snake King saw a little girl who reached his waist, smiling and asking him for a gift.

In that moment, Snake King felt disheveled by the wind again.

"How did you get here?" Snake King frowned, could he not have a moment of peace to adjust?

Seeing that Snake King was not offering a gift, Little Rotating Turtle felt a bit disappointed, lowered his head, and said softly, "Madam said to call you over, there’s something to discuss with you."

"Call me over?" Snake King was startled, "But that’s He Tiantian’s bedroom, how is it appropriate for me to go there?"

"Heh heh!" Little Rotating Turtle laughed meaningfully, "I remember you used to share the bed with madam all the time."

At these words, Snake King blushed, recalling every moment in Qijia Village.

Life was so good there; he wished he could stay forever.

Alas, that was impossible.

"Alright, I was even younger than you back then, what’s there to avoid?" Snake King said, "Okay, I’ll go right now."

Although Snake King was frustrated, he knew today was a big day for Little Rotating Turtle.

Even if he couldn’t adjust right now, he couldn’t just not give Little Rotating Turtle a gift.

Thinking back to a while ago, he bought a wristwatch for Huo Ruimin and received an extra one from the store, which looked quite nice, so he decided to treat it as a gift for Little Rotating Turtle becoming human.

He’ll find something nice for Little Rotating Turtle tomorrow when he has more time.

With that thought, he took out a box from the drawer and said, "This is a watch, meant for little girls. You take it." frёeωebɳovel.com

Little Rotating Turtle took the box, opened it, and, seeing it was very pretty, thanked him profusely, "Snake King, you really are my good friend!"

"Alright, let’s get going," said the Snake King, unsure of what He Tiantian had called him over for.

Although he felt somewhat expectant inside, he knew that He Tiantian was a very upright person who would definitely not engage in ambiguous behavior, so there must be something important.

Little Rotating Turtle put on the watch and admired herself for a while before saying, "Let’s go, we shouldn’t keep madam waiting."

You just remembered?

You’ve been appreciating it for several minutes now, haven’t you?

Humans are truly brilliant, they invented the term "snail’s pace," which is absolutely tailored for Little Rotating Turtle, so accurate.

While the Snake King mocked internally, he led the way.

As for Little Rotating Turtle, she was happily fiddling with her new watch.

The two of them used invisibility to enter He Tiantian’s room.

Seeing them arrive, He Tiantian asked, "Snake King, our family can’t just suddenly have a little girl appear out of nowhere! I called you over to discuss how to get Xiao Xuanxuan an identity?"

"Xiao Xuanxuan?" The Snake King was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at the scraggly-haired girl beside him.

Hearing madam call her name, Little Rotating Turtle finally looked up and gave the Snake King and He Tiantian a sweet smile.

If you ignore the initial discomfort, the transformed Little Rotating Turtle actually looks quite nice, white and tender, plump and chubby.

The Snake King finally understood that "Xiao Xuanxuan" was his name.

Er, that name, is a bit... well, okay, it’s quite suitable.

"An identity?" The Snake King was taken aback, remembering the ID card in his wallet; to blend in with the Human Realm, having an identity was indeed necessary, "What’s your plan?"

"I told someone last time that there’s only yourself in your family, so Xiao Xuanxuan can’t be your sister anymore," He Tiantian explained, "She’ll have to have the identity of an orphan. Considering this, I’ve thought of a plan where we put on a little act."

"Put on an act?" The Snake King was surprised. "Is it that troublesome?"

"There’s no other way. After all, we need to give Xiao Xuanxuan a legitimate identity!" He Tiantian said with a wry smile. She didn’t want to make things this complicated either, but if Xiao Xuanxuan were a normal human, it wouldn’t need to be this difficult, yet she’s not.

An entire living person appearing out of nowhere does need an explanation!

"You have a point. Continue," the Snake King said, deciding to think of another solution if He Tiantian’s didn’t pan out.

"Xiao Xuanxuan can pretend to be a child kidnapped by traffickers, then she encounters you, and you rescue her and take her to the police station. But Xiao Xuanxuan doesn’t want to stay, insisting on following you," He Tiantian laid out her plan. "As a single man, according to China’s laws, you can’t adopt a child, but I can! I’ll go through the adoption process, and that way, we can bring Xiao Xuanxuan back home."

The Snake King thought it over and found the idea reasonable.

"But she’s seven or eight years old, she doesn’t know her own parents or where her home is?" The Snake King voiced his concerns, as it seemed a little illogical.

Little Rotating Turtle chimed in from the side, "No problem, I can play dumb!"

He Tiantian and the Snake King both turned to look at Little Rotating Turtle, especially seeing her innocent dazed expression, they were amazed.

"Right, right, playing dumb could work," He Tiantian quickly said. "That way, even if someone sees how cute Xiao Xuanxuan is and wants to adopt her, they might reconsider after seeing her act silly, as raising a child is not like raising a small pet; it requires a lot of responsibility. My family is wealthy, we can provide a good material life to a child with disabilities, so the adoption process should be easier."
