Chapter 357

One hundred and sixty-fifth page: Love Alice of the Beihai Family

The Zhú Běihǎi in the kitchen also turned into light.

This was not unexpected; as the eldest son, he naturally triggered the random transformation curse.

I couldn’t help but sigh, “Our family is really chaotic. How could a normal person understand these relationships?”

My grandpa looked like a college girl in her early twenties, but his mental age seemed like that of a primary school student;

My grandma was a high school girl at seventeen, but her heart was that of an elderly woman;

As the eldest sister of this generation, I looked only five or six years old;

Qianxia, as the youngest sister, was so big she could carry me around…

Reflecting on the absurd family situation, Zhú Běihǎi, who was the eldest uncle, dispersed the white light and ended the transformation.

Finally, there were no men left in the underground temple.

Grandpa welcomed his new daughter and commented, “Oh? According to European standards, she’s quite petite, almost like Alice from ‘Alice in Wonderland’?”

My grandma and I supported her arms, dragging the unconscious blonde Northern European girl, “Beihai Alice,” out of the kitchen.

Yeah, we dragged her.

I had no choice!

Given my current height, I couldn’t lift her up, so I had to drag her out like handling a corpse. Her long pants slid off during the process, revealing her white thighs and a pair of men’s briefs.

Dragging her to the dining room, I couldn’t help but complain, “Hey! I’m not even a meter twenty tall! Isn’t it too much for me to carry her?”

So Grandpa called for Dog Sister.

“Have Shuasui lend a hand and take her to the changing room to change clothes.”

“Oh, she looks quite cute now, with some freckles?”

Dog Sister didn’t need help from Grandpa; she carried Zhú Běihǎi over her shoulder alone, patting the loose briefs under her.

Although Zhú Běihǎi’s small body was light, Dog Sister was only a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl herself. Her current body was a replica of Mù Xī’s, which was strong enough to carry someone easily, proving how robust Mù Xī must be…

Should the strength of the boatman’s daughter be leveled up to 40?

“Hey, she’s pretty light!”

After weighing the person on her shoulder, Dog Sister asked, “The light has dissipated, why hasn’t she woken up yet?”

Grandpa replied, “It happens sometimes. It just takes a while for consciousness to return. It’s nothing serious.”

“Then I’ll go change her clothes. Mù Xī, come help!”

Calling the real Mù Xī, Dog Sister carried Zhú Běihǎi to the changing room.

Little Qianxia stood there, dumbfounded, looking at their departing figures, then peered into the empty kitchen.

She tilted her head and asked Grandma, “Grandma, where’s my dad?”

This question made Grandma laugh.

“Dumb girl, the person the sister just carried away is your dad. Go help her change clothes.”

“What?”

Grandma’s response left Qianxia stunned until Grandpa patted her on the back, making her jump up and run after them.

“Dad, wait for Qianxia!”

“Ah, this little girl can be smart sometimes, but other times she’s so naive… The kitchen can only be handled by me. Although I haven’t cooked in a long time, I’m still better than Lingmeng.”

Her straight white hair was tied into a ponytail at the back, exposing her fair neck. Grandma rolled up her sleeves and returned to the kitchen to take charge.

What a virtuous wife! Betrayed by such a grandmother, Grandpa pushed me.

“Little Ying, you all should sit down. The cold dishes are ready, let’s start eating.”

She didn’t sit down herself, so I asked, “Are you going to help Grandma?”

Grandpa waved his hand and said, “No, no, no. I can’t cook anymore! Entering the kitchen would just get in the way. I’m going to call Bìfāng on video to tell her about Xiao Kai and Qianxia’s situation. After all, they’re both good news.”

Sigh, is Xiao Kai’s situation really good news?

Grandpa left the dining room before he could catch his breath. Yuzu climbed up my leg and begged, its paws tapping my nose.

“Little Ying, turn me into a human quickly!”

Unable to resist her, I reluctantly passed over the divine power.

Bang!

She transformed into a human almost touching my face, then—

“Oh! Thank you, Little Ying! Let me hold you and eat!”

I was lifted again. Yuzu happily held me between Lin Hua and Xiao Lei, sitting me on her lap. Her hands explored my front, clearly with ulterior motives.

I warned sternly, “Hey! Don’t touch me randomly!”

“You treat me like this all the time! Don’t play double standards. Aren’t I already used to it?”

Yuzu’s soft fur on her abdomen and neck was the most comfortable to touch, so I liked to flip her over and pet her neck and belly, which was very relaxing.

“Humans and animal forms can’t be the same. If I touched you now…”

I noticed something different about the human form of Yuzu behind me.

“…Hey, did you secretly modify your body?”

Last time, she changed her hairstyle, giving herself a single-sided fringe with highlights. This time, she adjusted her body, making it exceptionally curvaceous.

Deciding one’s appearance through transformations was convenient, but why did her style resemble a rock star?

Caught in the act, Yuzu intensified her grip on my waist to hide her embarrassment, making me squirm involuntarily.

She pouted, “Stop it! I have beauty standards too! And if you want to touch me, go ahead. Xiao Kai can’t because he’s a boy, but you, Little Ying, it doesn’t matter. I don’t mind, just make sure to touch me back later!”

She even puffed out her chest.

“You’ve been touching me since just now!”

Never did I think I’d be molested by a small animal. What kind of nonsense is this?

Though Yuzu was lively, the seats on either side remained unusually quiet. Neither Lin Hua nor Sister Lei showed any interest in our antics.

Previously, I could eavesdrop on their thoughts through Xiao Kai’s connection, but now I had to ask directly, “Lin Hua, what are you thinking about?”

She sighed deeply…

“Ahh——”

It was a long sigh, lasting ten seconds. Lin Hua’s lung capacity must be impressive, probably around 4400ml.

“Cherry Sauce, what if Kai Sauce never comes back? Will there be food over there? Without you, he might be naked. What about Sister Ningying? Is she with him?”

She hunched over, lowering her head, throwing out a series of questions.

Her bangs fell across her eyes, casting a shadow over her delicate profile, making it hard to see her expression.

“…I can’t answer your questions, but you told me to stay optimistic this morning. Why are you feeling down now that we know Xiao Kai is safe?”

Lin Hua raised her head, looking at me with lifeless eyes.

“The situation is different now. Before, we thought Xiao Kai was sent to another city by Heavenly Path for further trials, but instead, he was sent to an unknown space! Unlike you and Zǐ Jiàng, I don’t understand any spells or divine techniques. All I can do is wait, and wait, and wait… It’s depressing.”

The helplessness tormenting Lin Hua, I could empathize with.

“Although Zǐ Jiàng is enthusiastic, I lack confidence in our current abilities. With our current strength, how can we break through?”

A rebellious thought flashed through my mind. I suggested, “By the way! Why don’t you learn some spells? Sister Lei is going to be a test subject for Zǐ Jiàng! You can use this time to learn basic spell theory!”

The fool next to me also looked up, mouth agape, showing surprise.

She asked, “Sister Ying, weren’t you against ordinary people learning spells? Why are you suddenly encouraging us to learn?”

“At this point, does it even matter?”

Heavenly Path took away half of me, can I still work for it?

Teaching them spell theory would also help Zǐ Jiàng’s research, although Sister Lei’s brain isn’t capable of complex spells.

Even though Grandpa urged everyone to start eating, no one started first. Not even Sister Lei, who usually had a good appetite, seemed interested.

“Alright, Xiao Kai’s issue isn’t resolved, but it won’t be solved overnight. Only by filling our stomachs will we have the energy to think of solutions. So, let’s eat! Yuzu, pass me some pig stomach!”

Since she sat me on her lap, she should become my serving tool.

“Yes!”

But compared to eating herself, Yuzu seemed to enjoy feeding me more, always watching me eat.

It was like observing a pet.

Ding-dong!

Rushing footsteps echoed in the hallway.

A blonde Alice in a blue dress… No, it was blonde Zhú Běihǎi.

She wasn’t wearing shoes or socks, running barefoot in winter, holding up her skirt and rushing over.

“Little Ying! I just saw Xiao Kai!”
