Triplets: Lucky Mommy is a Beautiful Badass

The kidnapper was, of course, this old man.

This old man was also possibly one of the seven grand masters that mommy had mentioned...the most powerful people of the entire continent!

If they were that powerful, Erniu figured that she definitely would not be able to get away.

Considering the present situation, she could only calm down.

She could not let herself get hurt.

If she were hurt, mommy would definitely be worried.

Thinking till this point, Erniu got up and first looked around the room. She realized her clothes were at the side. She picked them up and put them on without assistance. Then she got off the bed and, without even looking at the old man, went to the side and began washing herself.

Fortunately, there was water in the copper basin.

All of the child's actions did not escape the corner of Pang Juan's gaze.

Pang Juan had gone to that residence the night before and easily swiped one of the kids.

Of course, he had not initially planned on catching this carrot top but Qi Qingyao. Pang Juan changed his plan when the time came, however.

That was because he realized that hidden in this little girl was great potential.

Pang Juan looked at the little girl who carried down the copper basin then carefully crouched to wash her face.

"You did not try to escape or call for help," he said calmly as he looked at the little girl. "Neither are you afraid of me."

Erniu, who had finished washing up, turned her head with her lips pursed. She took a look at the old man who looked like an old grandfather, but with a very straightforward expression. She tilted her head, thought for a bit, and then said in a serious voice, "You captured me because you want to threaten my mommy. You won't kill me as long as I am good. Why should I be afraid of you since I won't die?"

"..." How intelligent. Pang Juan did not expect a child to be able to think about things so clearly.

Erniu rubbed her little tummy and walked in front of Pang Juan, asking, "Old man, do you have anything to eat? I'm hungry."

Pang Juan laughed and said, "I'll take you out to eat if you don't try to escape."

Erniu sighed. She looked up to the light, her eyes moist. She fixed her gaze on Pang Juan and said, "I'm just a 4-year-old child. My legs are too short and I can't run fast. Not to mention, you're a grand master! Mommy said grand masters are the few most powerful people in the continent, very very powerful. Even if I were an adult, I wouldn't be able to escape from you. So, I can't fight you off or escape. I'll just keep myself in line and eat when I should eat! I can't starve myself."

Pang Juan listened to the little kid's rapid-fire childlike speech.

He paused for a moment.

"You're still so young, how do you know so much?" He said, puzzled, then added, "Why did your mother tell you so much?"

Erniu muttered in a small voice, "Mommy said that even though we're young, we need to use our minds, otherwise, we'll become stupid."

Pang Juan raised his brows.

Then he walked to the door.

He called for the servant to enter.

He instructed, "Bring us two plates of roast beef, and also some stir-fried veggies."

Erniu heard that he was ordering and excitedly raised her hand.

"I want fried chicken!"

Pang Juan looked down at her.

Erniu murmured, "I don't want to get thin from hunger."

Not too long later, the servant brought in fried chicken, veggies, and also beef.

Erniu sat at the small, round, gold-lined table and began digging in happily.

Pang Juan sat beside the window as before. He had just pulled back the window a crack to look out at the scenery of Qingyang Lake when Erniu turned her head.

"The air is leaking in, it'll make things cold. Close the window quickly! "

Pang Juan, "..."

He could only quietly close the window.

Then he walked over and sat beside the small round table, looking at the little girl who was eating like a hamster.

Pang Juan was in deep thought for a moment before he said, "You...do you want to…"

Before he even finished, Erniu's muffled voice said, "Don't wanna."

"I haven't even said it. How do you know what I was going to say?" he asked.

Erniu pursed her lips, answering as she ate, "You said "do you want to", which means it's a request. As if I want any of that. You can say whatever you want after Mommy finds me."

Pang Juan looked at the girl with increased respect once again. "You little girl, you're only four years old yet you're so smart. I'm suddenly curious about what kind of person your mother is."

Erniu ate while she sighed with emotion. "I'm not smart, I'm really stupid. Xiaobao is really smart, Mommy is also really smart."

Pang Juan, "..."

He had heard of this.

After he entered the city, stories of Qi Qingyao had been circulating the streets.

However, she apparently had only arrived in Qingzhou City for a few months…

Pang Juan opened his mouth again and said, "I want to ask you, do you want to be my…"

Erniu cut across him once again, "I don't want to be your daughter! I'm only Mommy's daughter."

Pang Juan raised his brows. "I didn't mean daughter. I meant disciple."

"Disciple?" Erniu finally put down the chicken bone in her hand. She looked at him with an innocent and artless gaze and asked, "What's a disciple, can you eat it?"

Pang Juan said instinctively, "Disciples are edible...no! You led me off. Being a disciple means I can teach you skills, I can teach you how to cultivate."

"..." Cultivate? Did that mean to be a grand master?

Pang Juan asked, "Do you understand it now?"

Erniu looked at him in a pure manner and said, "I somewhat get it. You're a grand master, you want to pass on your ability to kill to me."

Pang Juan corrected the little girl, "It's not the ability to kill someone, it's the ability to save someone."

This time, Erniu put down the other unfinished drumstick in her hand. Her expression fully serious, she asked, "Do I have the talent for it?"

"Kind of." She was a child who had a great innate talent for it. There were seventeen pressure points for cultivation and she naturally had all seventeen of them already opened! If she were to cultivate, he estimated that the girl could reach the realm of grand master in good time. Her bones were also very peculiar but elegant! She was a very good seed.

He had started cultivating when he was ten years old back then.

He had only opened fourteen of his pressure points at the time.

This was another reason he captured this child the night before.

"I can't do that. I'm too young. I need to listen to Mommy." Erniu murmured before she picked up the drumstick again and munched on it. "Even though you're powerful, you're a foreigner. I'd have to go with you if I became your disciple. My mommy couldn't possibly let me go with a foreigner. So, the answer is no."

Pang Juan, "..."

It looked like he would have to go through Qi Qingyao to take on this disciple!

Just as Pang Juan was starting to feel worried, he felt an intense aura headed toward his direction.

It was somewhat familiar.

It was probably...that person from Southern Ming. The one everyone had crossed paths with the last time.

The old man that cultivated by Cangjing Lake.

Gongsun She.

Why did he even come here?

Pang Juan had some suspicions.

…

…

After Qi Qingyao and the others entered Qingzhou City and realized that the old man's destination was behind Chunjiang Restaurant, she was a little dumbfounded. Then the old man stood waiting for her at the door of Chunjiang Restaurant seriously.

She got down from the horse.

She pointed at the inside of Chunjiang Restaurant.

"You're certain? They're in here?"

This was a little too obvious now, was it not?

Gu Cheng and Zhu Shen also found it hard to believe.

"They're just upstairs, in one of the rooms." He sensed their presence.

Qi Qingyao followed him inside doubtfully...
