Chapter 76 -76: The Mysterious Little Girl
“Do you want to hear the truth or a lie?”
Long Chen smiled at Li Yuechan.
Li Yuechan pinched Long Chen and whispered, “Don’t give me that. You know that’s exactly what you’re thinking.
Don’t worry, I’ll try not to disappoint you. This lifetime, I guess I’m resigned to my fate.”
“My dear wife is so obedient, come here and give me a kiss.”
Long Chen wrapped his arms around Li Yuechan’s slender waist.
“Kiss your head, we’re almost there, be serious.”
Li Yuechan gave Long Chen a glare.
The two of them soon arrived at the door.
Zhao Churan, Long Xue’er, and Mu Qingqing had heard the loud noise from before and were now standing at the doorway, looking out into the distance.
Suddenly seeing Long Chen and Li Yuechan arrive, all three of them were stunned.
Then, Long Xue’er hurried forward and whispered, “Brother, what are you doing? How come you…?”
Long Xue’er couldn’t understand Long Chen’s behavior. Why had he brought Li Yuechan along?
“Call her sister-in-law.”
Long Chen whispered with a smile.
“What?”
Long Xue’er’s head couldn’t wrap around the idea.
“Call her,” Long Chen gently tapped on Long Xue’er’s forehead.
“Don’t hit her.” Li Yuechan said, “We’re divorced. What sister-in-law should she call?
Xue’er, don’t listen to your brother. Did it hurt?”
Li Yuechan touched Long Xue’er’s forehead.
“No… it didn’t hurt.”
Long Xue’er was a bit afraid of Li Yuechan.
But at that moment, Long Xue’er could feel Li Yuechan’s gentleness.
It was just like the first time she met Zhao Churan, when her brother flicked her on the forehead and Zhao Churan also blew gently on it to soothe the pain.
Both of them were very good to her.
This made Zhao Churan conflicted for a moment, wondering which one was really the sister-in-law?
And which one should she support?
However, when Zhao Churan looked at Li Yuechan, the two women locking eyes seemed to spark fire in the air, as if it could ignite at any moment.
“Now that you’re here, come in and sit down.”
Zhao Churan said indifferently, taking the initiative to speak.
“Thank you.”
Li Yuechan stepped into the living room without any pretense, followed silently by Long Chen.
Behind them, Mu Qingqing pulled Long Xue’er aside: “What’s going on here? Why do I sense an intense murderous aura?”
“That’s my brother’s ex-wife, Li Yuechan.” Long Xue’er said with a wry smile.
“Why did your brother bring his ex-wife to his current girlfriend’s house? And the way they’re acting, it seems rather intimate. What’s he thinking?”
Mu Qingqing couldn’t comprehend this.
“I don’t know, let’s wait and see. If they start fighting, you’ll have to help me break it up.”
Long Xue’er was prepared for the worst.
Before long, a series of dishes were brought to the table, and Zhao Churan invited Li Yuechan to dine with them.
Li Yuechan declined with a smile, as she had already eaten.
“Come on, sit down and eat something with us. We can eat and talk,” Zhao Churan said.
“Alright.”
Li Yuechan no longer refused.
They didn’t just chat for the sake of it; they really started conversing.
Their topics were quite diverse, as if they were competing in various fields of knowledge—astronomy, geography, cars, perfumes, cosmetics, and business were all covered.
What was impressive was that neither woman was outdone by the other; they were evenly matched.
“I didn’t expect you to be so knowledgeable, knowing so much.”
Zhao Churan praised Li Yuechan while casually serving Long Chen a piece of fatty meat.
“You’re not bad either. Talking to you, I feel like we clicked right away. It’s as if I’m meeting someone I wish I’d known sooner.”
Li Yuechan said with a smile, likewise naturally serving Long Chen another piece of fatty meat.
“I… Can I not eat this? I’m already full,” Long Chen asked tentatively.
“No, you can’t.”
The two women said in unison.
Then, they exchanged a smile as if having found a common amusement, gazing at Long Chen.
Long Chen looked at the two pieces of fatty meat in his bowl, feeling like crying without tears.
“Brother, I love fatty meat the most. Maybe I could…”
Long Xue’er, feeling sorry for her brother, offered to help Long Chen.
“Xue’er, your brother likes it too. Don’t believe me? Ask Yuechan sister-in-law.” Zhao Churan chuckled lightly.
“Indeed, he likes it. Long Chen, do you like it?”
Li Yuechan echoed.
“I do.”
Long Chen said with tears in his eyes, finishing the two pieces of meat.
At that moment, Long Chen slightly regretted bringing these two women together.
As Long Chen finished eating, the two women no longer paid him any mind and continued their conversation.
“Yuechan, what are your plans for the future? Can you share?”
Zhao Churan asked.
“What little sister? Maybe I’m older than you. What do you mean by ‘plans’?”
Li Yuechan asked.

“For instance, the big decisions in life, like marriage.”
Zhao Churan was blunt.
Long Chen’s heart began to race. Was this the cue for a confrontation?
He suddenly felt like escaping!
Without any hesitation, Long Chen stood up and left Zhao Churan’s house.
“Well then, I’ll go clean up the kitchen. Qingqing, come help me.”
Long Xue’er, with a face eager to hear gossip, took Mu Qingqing’s hand and went into the kitchen.
“Oh man, I wanted to hear more, you wicked girl.”
Mu Qingqing rolled her eyes at Long Xue’er.
“What’s there to listen to? Hey, can’t you see the undercurrent between those two?”
Long Xue’er sighed.
“What charm does your brother have that makes two goddess-level beings jealous over him? I’m getting more and more curious about him.”
“Curiosity is the first step towards downfall. You better be careful,” Long Xue’er teased.
“As if I would fall for your brother, such a playboy. I’m purely curious about what abilities he has to make two goddesses fight over him.”
Mu Qingqing tilted her head thoughtfully.
Outside, Long Chen walked to the small garden in the villa complex and sat down on a bench.
Not far away, a little girl squatted on the ground, hugging her knees, seemingly crying.
Long Chen didn’t pay much attention and closed his eyes slightly, pondering the matters concerning Zhao Churan and Li Yuechan.
At a certain moment, Long Chen felt someone standing in front of him.
He opened his eyes and immediately saw a delicate little girl, standing in front of him, staring at him with wide, unblinking eyes.
“Little girl, is something the matter?”
Long Chen asked with a smile.
“Big brother, I’ve caused trouble, and now I’m really scared.”
She lowered her head, her eyes brimming with tears.
“Got into trouble and now you’re too scared to go home? Come on, tell big brother what happened?”
“I… I accidentally blew up a house.”
The little girl, with her head down, clung to the dirty hem of her dress in fear.
“Huh?”
Long Chen was stunned, unable to react.
The villa next to Li Yuechan’s, was it this little girl who blew it up?
Long Chen’s first thought was that the little girl had been used by someone.
“Little girl, tell big brother specifically, did someone force you to do something?”
Long Chen tried to sound as gentle as possible.
“No one forced me; it was just me accidentally destroying the house.” The little girl said.
“How… how did it explode?” Long Chen asked.
“Big brother, I saw a very cute little bird on the house and tried to catch it. I just gave it a pinch in the air, and the house collapsed. I really didn’t mean to do it, truly.”
The little girl seemed very flustered.
Long Chen felt a chill down his spine. Could this be true?
A girl about ten years old, with a mere gesture, destroyed a house?
No matter how he heard it, it seemed like a wild tale that only happened in movies.
But this wasn’t a movie!
“So, little girl, are you saying that you might possess some special abilities?”
Long Chen asked softly.
“Big brother is so smart.” The little girl said, “I do have some amazing abilities that I’m usually afraid to use because I worry about causing trouble.”
“Like what? Can you find something simple and demonstrate for big brother? Don’t worry, I won’t get scared because big brother also has some special abilities.”
Long Chen said.
“That’s the case, no wonder I felt a close connection with you, big brother. Then, I’ll show you.
Big brother, look at the ground.”
The little girl stretched out her hand towards the ground and gently waved it.
Instantly, the ground began to tremble. The solid cement floor started to wriggle, cracking open as if it could burst at any moment.
Long Chen’s eyes widened. What kind of little monster was this?
“Quick… stop.”
Long Chen quickly stopped the little girl.
At this point, he believed that it was indeed this little girl who accidentally brought down the villa.
All because she wanted to catch a pretty bird.
“You have such powerful abilities; you should definitely use them with caution. Just to catch a bird, you destroyed someone’s big house, and there could’ve been people inside who died. You understand that such a big mistake cannot be undone, don’t you?”
“Big brother, there was nobody in the house,” the little girl quickly said.
“How do you know there wasn’t anyone?”
“Because I knew there were no people before I tried to catch the bird. It was their pet bird; I made sure there was nobody around before I did anything.”
“How did you make sure there were no people? Did you go inside?”
“No.” The little girl blinked her large eyes innocently, “I just need to take one look to know if there’s anyone inside.”
Long Chen was dumbstruck. Could that work?
“Big brother, I’m not lying to you, I didn’t do it on purpose, wuwu, I’m scared.”
Seeing Long Chen not speaking, the little girl started to cry worriedly.
