She ate at an incredible speed, akin to devouring her food ravenously.
In less than a half a cup of tea’s time, the little girl had devoured the entire set of armor.
After finishing, the little girl gently patted her tummy, let out a long belch of satisfaction, and then her face showed a content and pleasant expression.
"Did she... did she really finish it?" An Yan looked incredulous.
Xue An suddenly started laughing.
Because at that moment, he saw the little girl’s figure tremble slightly, and she grew a bit taller, her appearance changing from that of a four or five-year-old to a six or seven-year-old girl.
This process of growth made Xue An finally understand something.
He said with a smile that was not quite a smile, "Yes, she finished it!"
"What should we do next?" An Yan asked.
"Naturally... let it cool off!" Xue An said blandly.
"But that was a set of armor we painstakingly accumulated!" An Yan said with some reluctance.
That alchemy armor had accompanied her through many adventures, enduring countless trials, and An Yan had deep feelings for it.
So when she saw the armor being completely consumed by the little girl, her heart was naturally filled with reluctance.
In response, Xue An just smiled slightly, "Don’t worry, the armor hasn’t disappeared. On the contrary, it will grow to a level you can’t imagine!"
No sooner had he said that than the little girl lifted her head again, looking at Xue An and An Yan with a face full of longing, her eyes wondering.
Is there more? I’m not full yet!
Xue An chuckled and stepped into the Jade Slip.
An Yan was startled and shouted, "Honey!"
And she quickly followed him in.
Upon entering the Jade Slip, An Yan felt her hair stand on end, her body on high alert.
After all, this little girl was shrouded in mystery, and no one knew whether she was good or evil, so being cautious was certainly not wrong.
Unexpectedly, upon entering, Xue An walked calmly to the little girl, squatting down to look at her with a smile.
"Not full yet?"
The little girl stared blankly at Xue An, then nodded.
"Want to eat more?"
The little girl nodded again, even more enthusiastically than before.
"Great, follow me, and I’ll take you to some delicious food!"
With that, Xue An stood up and reached out his hand to the little girl.
An Yan’s heart jumped into her throat.
Cha Wenliang silently broke into a sweat for Xue An.
Because the risk was enormous.
Who knew what this mysterious little girl might do?
Even Lou Yingshi’s face was full of gravitas.
She also didn’t know what was hidden in the Jade Slip that could bring such great disaster to the Lou Family.
But her father once solemnly instructed her to protect the Jade Slip at all costs.
She never expected that a little girl would reside within the Jade Slip.
Because at that moment, the little girl was blinking her dark eyes while looking at her.
With that, Nian Nian excitedly ran to the little girl, quickly observing her before gently pinching her cheek.
Her movements were so quick that An Yan didn’t have time to stop her.
Then Nian Nian’s mouth gradually opened in amazement, "Wow, such smooth cheeks, she’s just adorable!"
An Yan swallowed back her surprised outburst, noticing that the little girl seemed unfazed by Nian Nian’s actions, with her cheeks pinched but her eyes still full of joy.
Nian Nian became even more excited, "Sister, look at this little sister, she looks like a doll!"
Saying that, she used both hands to pinch and pull at the little girl’s cheeks, making a series of comical faces.
Xiang Xiang’s eyes lit up as she came closer, "Little sister, what’s your name? I’m Xiang Xiang, and this is my sister Nian Nian. Let’s get to know each other!"
But the little girl, apart from the smile in her eyes, said nothing.
Xiang Xiang and Nian Nian couldn’t help but look up at Xue An.
"Daddy, why doesn’t she speak?"
Xue An smiled knowingly, "Maybe she hasn’t learned to talk yet!"
"Oh, that’s really pitiful!"
Xiang Xiang and Nian Nian’s sympathy overflowed instantly.
"Then we will teach you to speak from now on!" Nian Nian said, patting her chest.
"That’s right, from now on, we’ll have your back, and if anyone bullies you, we’ll stick up for you!" Xiang Xiang said boldly.
The little girl’s mouth curled into a big smile, nodding vigorously, looking at the two little girls with admiration.
This gaze greatly gratified Xiang Xiang and Nian Nian’s vanity.
So when they went to the Medicinal Workshop for breakfast next, Xiang Xiang and Nian Nian acted very "mature and steady," showing lots of care for the little girl.
