Perhaps it was due to being unable to manage his little sister, the "little demon king," the originally planned five or six days were drastically cut down to three. Three days later, the moment the helicopter ascended, Gu Huanzhen finally felt his soul return to his body.
"So many gains, Changbai Mountain is truly a great place, hehe!" Yaoyao patted the bulging travel bag at her feet, which was full of carefully selected treasures.
She calculated the people she needed to give gifts to: besides Mom and Dad, none of her brothers, her martial uncle, or her little nephew could be left out. Looking at it this way, she didn't have much left for herself.
Sixth Brother was really something, always saying "too much," which made her not dare to dig for more. Thinking carefully, next time she'd bring Seventh Brother; he definitely wouldn't complain about too much,
and then she could dig up a huge batch again. It was a good thing Gu Huanzhen didn't know about this idea, otherwise, he probably wouldn't be able to sit still on the plane.
More than two hours later, the plane landed.
After Yaoyao disembarked, she saw Chen Hui, who had driven a RV to pick her up, not far away. Her beautiful big eyes lit up, and she happily ran towards her.
"Mama, why did you come to pick me up yourself?"
Yaoyao was very happy to see her mother and unconsciously began to act cute, which amused Chen Hui. She reached out to pick her up and stroked her plump little cheeks. "Mama missed you, and I happened to be free, so I came to pick you up...
How was it, did you have fun?" Even though her daughter ate a lot, her weight never increased, so carrying her wasn't strenuous. Yaoyao softly nodded, "Mhm, I had enough fun!" She was already used to being carried and didn't resist as her mother took her.
Of course, secretly, at this moment, she quietly lowered the hand that was forming a Light Body Art seal, revealing a sweet smile. This seal, of course, wasn't to conceal the fact that she had gained weight, but to prevent her mother from getting tired.
After all, Yaoyao knew she was solid, and the weight of her immaculate body was still a bit over the top. The mother and daughter's understanding one completely unaware, the other silently knowing was strangely congruent, without revealing any clues.
"Where did this fox-fur hat come from? It's not hot either, quickly take it off, your hair will get damp if you keep it on." Chen Hui held her daughter for a moment, then her gaze suddenly noticed something amiss.
The temperature in the imperial capital was a notch higher than in Changbai Mountain; right now, even thin shirts weren't necessary, let alone a furry hat.
As she spoke, Chen Hui had already reached out. Yaoyao, caught up in her emotions, didn't immediately remember the coldness of her head, and by the time she reacted to stop her, it was too late.
Thus, Chen Hui's eyes suddenly met a bare, smooth head. Her peach blossom eyes widened, filled with shock and disbelief.
"Oh no!" Seeing her mother's expression, Yaoyao let out a cry of distress. She frustratingly hugged her head with her small hands, trying to cover her cool scalp. But this cover made no difference. Chen Hui snapped back from her daughter's cry. "This... what happened, Yaoyao... where's your hair?"
"Gu Huanzhen, didn't I tell you to take good care of your sister? Is this how you take care of her?" Chen Hui's eyebrows shot up in anger. She was still gentle with her daughter, but she had fewer reservations with her son.
"You should let Yaoyao explain this herself," Gu Huanzhen said, rubbing his temples. He had noticed his sister's peculiarity early on, but since she pretended not to know, he couldn't ask more.
Now that their own mother had uncovered it, he couldn't even try to gloss over it. Chen Hui's gaze followed his, her eyes clearly asking, "What happened?" Yaoyao knew that if she didn't explain clearly, the matter wouldn't be forgotten. She honestly recounted the events of her tribulation.
Of course, she omitted the process of devouring the water monster, only saying that the opportune moment for breakthrough had arrived.
"It's all because of that smelly lightning! It came too fast. Yaoyao didn't have time to protect her hair, and it got burned off, wuwuwu!" Feeling the coolness on her head, tears welled up in her beautiful big eyes. This pitiable sight couldn't help but make Chen Hui's eyes redden as she listened to the explanation.
"It's alright, it's just a bit of hair, isn't it? It'll grow back." Chen Hui quickly comforted her, seemingly afraid of hurting her daughter's self-esteem. "If Yaoyao thinks it doesn't look good, Mama will have some custom wigs made for you when we get back. I promise they'll look just like real hair."
Upon hearing about wigs, Yaoyao's eyes lit up. This was indeed a good solution. The one Seventh Brother found for her last time was very realistic; her mother and others hadn't noticed. So, she nodded her little head repeatedly, "Mhm, then Yaoyao wants to wear wigs, not be bald." Being bald was too ugly, Yaoyao didn't want to be ugly, she still wanted to wear pretty dresses!
"Good, you won't be bald, absolutely not," Chen Hui said, a smile appearing on her face as her daughter's mood stabilized. However, the smooth head felt quite nice to the touch; if it weren't inappropriate, she would have really liked to touch it again.
Yaoyao had no idea what her mother was thinking. After arriving home by car, she happily nestled into her big soft bed. Although Sixth Brother had been meticulous in his preparations, the fact that it wasn't as comfortable as home couldn't be changed.
And this time, if it wasn't for greedily pursuing the cultivation of those Ghost Generals, she wouldn't have shown up.
However, breaking into the Ninth Tier was an unexpected bonus, but this didn't affect her grand plan. After all, even a small mosquito has meat; so much ghostly energy, when converted, was a great help even for Ninth-Tier cultivation.
Because she had slept too much during the day, Yaoyao was full of energy now. Counting the days, it had been a long time since her last livestream. It really wasn't suitable for livestreaming in the mountains before,
but now that she was back, she needed to catch up. So, she quickly messaged Seventh Brother, and before long, the two, one big and one small, were gathered in a room again.
"Bald again?" Gu Yu raised an eyebrow, seeing his sister's cool bald head once more.
"Mhm!" Yaoyao didn't need to feign surprise in front of Seventh Brother; it hadn't been long since the last time.
"Hiss~" Gu Yu took a deep breath. Wigs, in his sister's hands, could actually become consumables? Looking at it this way, he'd have to order a few more from his friend to avoid his sister feeling uncomfortable.
"So, what about the livestream? Stream with a hat?" Gu Yu suddenly realized this issue. He knew that their livestream room could easily attract millions of viewers.
If his sister appeared bald, there would probably be seven or eight trending topics about it that night. The internet had a memory; that black mark would be impossible to erase then.
Who knew that as soon as he finished speaking, he saw Yaoyao shake her head and say, "It's okay, Yaoyao has a plan."
"Hmm? What plan?" Gu Yu's curiosity was piqued. Because last time they only ordered one wig, and now they didn't have a replacement. How would his sister conceal it? With a hat? Or would she not appear on camera? Or some other method? Gu Yu kept guessing many possibilities in his mind, but none of them were right. Then, in his line of sight, he saw his sister slowly pull out a talisman.
