“Brother Fu Chen, what are Father and Mother doing?” Outside the chamber, Qing Han’s ears perked up as she stared dazedly at Fu Chen.

Fu Chen quickly covered Qing Han’s ears as he blushed.

“Don’t eavesdrop on them. This isn’t something a child should know. Stay focused and guard the door together with me.”

Qing Han pouted indignantly.

‘Pfft! Brother Fu Chen had just slept a little longer than me but he has actually grown so tall. He even despises me by calling me a child. Was he not a child before?”

“No way! Brother Fu Chen is so mean. I’ll never talk to you again.”

Qing Han turned her head sideways in a fit of pique and refused to talk to Fu Chen.

Hearing the sound in the chamber, a dusky blush rose to Fu Chen’s face. He glimpsed at Qing Han subconsciously.

Burning with fury, the little maiden pouted. She looked extremely adorable, it was as if her cheeks were two apples. It was a pity that Qing Han did not grow up this time.

‘No way! What was I thinking? I must not do this!’

Fu Chen and Qing Han were playmates since childhood and grew up together. They had even transformed into their human forms together. Moreover, Qing Han had always called Fu Chen her ‘brother’. That said, both of them were siblings. Fu Chen must never do this to his sibling!

Although some people did marry their cousins, Fu Chen and Qing Han were not cousins who shared the same blood. Naturally, it was impossible for them to get together…

‘We are siblings! Siblings! It’s not going to work!’

In the past, whenever Qing Han got angry, Fu Chen would coax her. This time Qing Han had been waiting so long, but Fu Chen did not even utter a word. Pouting, beads of aggrieved tears, ran down her cheeks like drops of pearls.

“Qing Han, what’s wrong? Did you hurt yourself? Are you hungry?” Fu Chen asked as he panicked.

Qing Han’s eyes were full of resentment and grievance. She cried even harder. However, she still remembered her task and did not let out a sound.

“Brother Fu Chen is getting taller now but I am still a dwarf. Hence, you dislike me and give me the cold shoulder. I’m sure you will look for other spirit herb sisters. Well, it doesn’t matter. Mother loves me and I have a so-called father. Even if you leave me, I am no longer alone.”

‘I’m just slightly shorter, how could Brother Fu Chen despise me? Pfft! I must eat more spirit herbs to grow taller. When I am taller than Brother Fu Chen, I can mock him then.”

‘I despise her? Well, I didn’t even know that I have done that.’ Fu Chen was dumbstruck by Qing Han’s words.

“Qing Han, I do not despise you.”

“I don’t believe you, you didn’t coax me just now. You must despise me for being a dwarf! I’m short-tempered and no one is capable of coaxing me.”

Qing Han gave a sniff of disapproval and turned her head away, not looking at Fu Chen.

Fu Chen took out a piece of spirit herb quietly from behind his back and showed it to Qing Han.

The aroma emanating from the spirit herb was so alluring. Qing Han could not help but swallow hard, her eyes were locked onto the spirit herb.

“Want to take a bite? I took it secretly out from Mother’s medium.”

Qing Han was drooling. She could not tear her eyes away from the spirit herb.

“Yes…”

‘I want to swallow it whole.’

“Well, not angry anymore?” Fu Chen grinned as he asked.

Qing Han nodded desperately, suppressing the urge to snatch the spirit herb from his hands.

Qing Han was such a glutton. Fu Chen could not help but worry.

‘My sister is way too easy to coax. What should I do if someone tricks her with spirit herbs one day…’
