The Sweetness of the Seventies-Chapter 1160 - 1129: Putting on a Show

The Snake King thought for a moment, and indeed, this was a good solution. ƒгeewebnovёl.com

"Alright, let’s do that," the Snake King nodded. "Then, for these few days, Xiao Xuanxuan, you can only be invisible. After I finish shooting the commercial, I need to attend an event. On the return train, or after getting off the train, I’ll handle this play myself with Little Rotating Turtle, or should I say, now Xiao Xuanxuan."

He Tiantian nodded, "Right, that’s the plan. You two should discuss the specifics. Snake King, Xiao Xuanxuan lacks social experience, so she’s relying on you."

"Of course," the Snake King nodded. "I will handle it properly."

"Since we’ve agreed on this, you should go back and rest, and Xiao Xuanxuan will stay here with me. I have some things to talk to her about," He Tiantian said, noting the Snake King also seemed tired and urged him to rest.

The Snake King also felt it wasn’t good to stay in He Tiantian’s room for too long. Hearing what she said, he left.

After the Snake King left, He Tiantian hugged Xiao Xuanxuan onto the bed, took off her shoes, and said, "Alright, you sleep here first. Once you get an identity, I will prepare a room for you, just like with Ruihua, Ruimin, and Xiaosan."

"Thank you, ma’am," Little Rotating Turtle was delighted.

"I am planning to adopt you as my daughter, so you might as well start calling me mom," He Tiantian chuckled, pinching Little Rotating Turtle’s chubby cheek.

This child was too endearing.

Xiao Xuanxuan was touched by these words but also felt a bit nervous, cautiously saying, "Ma’am... Does master know about this?"

If calling the ma’am mom, then she would have to call the master "Dad."

This made it hard for Little Rotating Turtle to switch.

He Tiantian laughed and said, "He’s busy with work now and doesn’t have time to come back. But you know, I’m the one who makes the decisions at home. If I agree to adopt you as my daughter, he will agree too. Actually, Brother Yingjie has never treated you like a servant; it’s just that you’ve never changed how you address him."

Xiao Xuanxuan smiled, saying, "Master has indeed changed a lot, and you’re truly incredible, ma’am."

"Ma’am?" He Tiantian’s voice rose a bit, "Haven’t you changed your address yet?"

"Err... Mom... Mom..." Little Rotating Turtle was addressing someone this way for the first time and felt a bit shy, quickly burrowing into the bed covers and covering her head.

In Little Rotating Turtle’s memory, there was no word for mother.

From the moment she opened her eyes, she was just a little turtle bullied by other animals, barely clinging to life. If not for her master, she might have died long ago — let alone have her past self, let alone her present self.

"Come on, covering your head while sleeping is not good," He Tiantian said softly, "Take it down, there’s nothing to be embarrassed about."

Only then did Little Rotating Turtle put down the cup, but she closed her eyes too.

From Little Rotating Turtle’s trembling eyelashes, one could tell the child was not at peace internally.

He Tiantian didn’t speak further, giving her time to slowly digest and accept everything.

While He Tiantian slept on the other side, she too could not sleep for a long time.

Both, big and small, were excited.

After the Snake King left, though still a bit uneasy, he accepted the reality and did not think further but hastened to sleep.

To guard Little Rotating Turtle, he had not rested well for several days.

Thinking about the stalled work made the Snake King somewhat headache, hoping to accelerate the progress. Once done, he would go get Little Rotating Turtle an identity.

In that case, the little turtle, like him, could live freely in the Human Realm.

The next morning, after having breakfast, the Snake King left early.

Now that Little Rotating Turtle had a human form but no identity, she could only be invisible.

She darted around like a joyful little bird, making faces at Huo Ruimin, sticking her tongue out at Huo Ruihua, running to where Huo Xiaosan was playing football, and took away Huo Xiaosan’s football, making it go further...

He Tiantian, watching Little Rotating Turtle’s antics, couldn’t help but laugh and cry.

He really is just a child.

Just because his form has turned into a child, does that make him a child?

However, now neither Snake King nor Huo Yingjie were at home, and He Tiantian couldn’t ask them.

He Tiantian took the children to school while Little Rotating Turtle stayed at home, longingly watching them leave, feeling especially envious.

He Tiantian waved at her, whispering, "Once you have an identity, I’ll take you out too. Just stay at home and don’t be naughty."

"Mmm, Xuanxuan won’t be naughty," Little Rotating Turtle promised repeatedly and transformed into a well-behaved child.

After four or five days, Snake King finally finished shooting the advertisement.

His absence had brought the work to a halt.

Qin Shuang often complained about Snake King Li Xian, but fortunately, Li Xian’s performance was excellent, getting it right on the first take, saving everyone a lot of effort.

After these tasks, Snake King had to depart for Tian City to attend an event.

Since the distance was not short, he took the train.

But as the train was about to arrive at the station, Snake King still hadn’t seen Little Rotating Turtle.

"Xuanxuan, where are you?" Snake King messaged Little Rotating Turtle through telepathy, this slow and unreliable creature.

By then, Little Rotating Turtle had already arrived at the train station and said, "I’m at the train station. I’ve caught the eye of a trafficker, come save me!"

"Uh uh..." Snake King was torn between laughter and tears. Was there really a need to act so realistically? Could she act better than him, an actor?

"Wuwuwu... I’m not acting, it’s real. I’m being targeted," said Little Rotating Turtle. "Hurry, I’m waiting for you. I’m walking in circles..."

At that moment, the train arrived at the station.

Snake King hastily got off the train, handing over all his luggage to two assistants.

"What’s with Li Xian today?" the male assistant asked. "He seems to be in such a rush."

"There’s no event scheduled for today, so it shouldn’t be that," said the female assistant, also puzzled.

Suddenly, the male assistant laughed, "Li Xian is not young anymore. I bet he’s in such a hurry because he’s going on a date..."

"Oh no, that won’t do. Li Xian just became famous; he can’t be dating now... You don’t know how good things are in Xiangjiang..." The female assistant warned the male assistant about numerous reasons why he shouldn’t be dating.

To stop Li Xian, the female assistant also quickened her pace, trying to catch up with Snake King.

Snake King was sprinting all the way and finally got out of the train station, searching around.

Just then, a little girl’s crying suddenly erupted at the train station.

"Bad person, bad person..." The little girl cried while shouting.

Snake King, tall in stature, saw from the crowd an old granny about fifty years of age chasing after a little girl.

That little girl was Xuanxuan.

The scene was rather speechless.

But it was also a good start to their work.

"Oh, this naughty girl, why can’t you be obedient? Just because I won’t buy you a toy, you call grandma a bad person..." the granny said as she ran, sometimes bumping into people and apologizing, "Sorry, the child is misbehaving."
