Ah, I really can’t do anything about this internet-addicted mom!
“Alright, so what role do you play?”
“I play mid-lane, I really like Ahri, you support me.”
“I’ll get flamed!”
Supporting mid-lane? What kind of arrangement is that?
And this mid-laner is even a newbie.
Su Qingya even said that when she’s not around, I can only play top lane.
But my own mother won’t have it.
“Can’t you even fulfill this little request for your mama? I painstakingly raised you, one diaper, one mouthful of milk at a time, working myself to the bone every day.
I watched you grow from this tiny thing to this big. Now that I’m older, you won’t even let me play support.”
She sniffled slightly, and Xu Nian could see she was faking it.
But after all, she’s a Fox Spirit, even her pretense is so pitifully endearing.
…Well.
Fine.
It’s not a big deal to let my mom play support.
“Okay, then I’ll grant your wish, Mom.”
“Great!”
I could see her white tail, much bigger than Xu Nian’s, swaying back and forth, making you want to pet it just by looking at it.
“Let’s eat, let’s eat.”
This is probably the first time Xu Nian’s played a game with her mother, how should I put it, it feels kind of special.
“How was it? Am I awesome?”
What’s it like to be asked for praise by your usually proper and elegant mother?
Xu Nian always feels like she has something on her mind.
“My mom is of course the best.”
Just then, Su Qingya sent a question mark.
[Who are you playing games with?]
[Our mom.]
[???]
[Really, she just got into it recently and even knows to check my rank.]
Su Qingya looked at the team join button and suddenly hesitated whether to apply to join.
She’s not ready to meet her mother-in-law yet.
After hesitating for a moment, she decided to forget it.
Mother dearest, of course, is outside the kill list.
Moreover, she has to find a way to create a good impression on mother dearest.
Hmm~
[How about after I’ve returned to the clan, you take me to your house to see them?]
[Okay.]
Xu Nian didn’t refuse, she actually became happy.
Everything is tomorrow.
She can already imagine what the trash fish Qingya’s expression will be.
After speaking, Su Qingya sent Xu Nian a casual sticker, and that was the end of the conversation.
“What are you grinning at like an idiot?”
Xu’s mother suddenly spoke from behind.
“No, nothing.”
She gossiped and came closer, wanting to see what was going on, but Xu Nian had already frantically switched to the game interface.
Xu’s mother pouted, she didn’t see what she was chatting about, but she saw the strawberry mark on the back of Xu Nian’s neck.
“Nian Nian you!”
She was startled!
“You got a boyfriend?”
“No, I don’t.”
Xu Nian subconsciously retorted, touching the back of her neck and belatedly realizing.
It’s a strawberry mark!
Damn it!
Why did that detestable Su Qingya have to leave such a hidden danger before leaving?
“Then what’s that strawberry on the back of your neck?”
“A mosquito bite.”
“I’ve used that excuse to death, do you think I’ll believe it?”
What the hell do you mean you’ve used it to death!
“You wouldn’t have been staying at the boy’s house these last few days, would you? You little rascal!
Tell me! What’s the other party’s family background? What’s their personality like? How’s their character? They’re not some edgy youth, are they?”
What the hell is an edgy youth!
“She loves me very much.” This was Xu Nian’s only explanation: “And I love her very much too.”
The information Xu Nian gave was good, and Xu’s mother instantly reacted, and who knows what she thought of.
“You…I understand, and I also believe in thirty years east, thirty years west, but you have to bring the person over to me, I need to check them out.”
“Huh?”
What boy, it should be a girl.
And how would I bring her over?
Could I say my girlfriend is your biological daughter?
Seems, seems not bad?
No, no, no!
I definitely can’t say it at this time!
Xu’s mother didn’t ask any more questions, she sent a message to Xu Nian’s father.
[What are you doing! Your cabbage has been rooted! Come back soon!]
[What! Which little bastard! I’ll be right back! Damn it! She’s only eighteen!]
Xu’s father didn’t have much work today anyway, so he directly dropped what he was doing and drove home in a hurry.
“Which little bastard! Tell me! Tell me now!”
Before he came back, Xu’s mother kept pulling Xu Nian, saying that she wasn’t allowed to do that kind of thing before finishing the college entrance exam and going to college.
And she couldn’t accept it if the character wasn’t good.
She babbled on and on.
Although she was nagging, she didn’t object or blame her.
Between the lines were worries and concerns about Xu Nian’s future.
Now that Xu’s father has returned, he has also joined the nagging battlefield. The once very mature and stable him now has a bit of irritability.
“Ah!! Okay, I know! I know! I’ll bring the person back to you next time for you to check them out, okay! Get out! All of you get out!”
Xu Nian was annoyed by the nagging and pushed her parents out of the room, then closed the door again.
The couple looked at each other.
“I can now understand why your father was so against me being with you.”
Xu’s father murmured, after his own cultivated cabbage was rooted, he was also a little angry.
“I understand a little bit too, why don’t we go back sometime?”
“…Forget it, I’m afraid your dad will hit me.”
Huddling in the room, burying her head in the quilt, Xu Nian was still very happy.
She could feel their concern, although it was a bit nagging.
But, she also understood what they meant.
Even if the real daughter returns, we won’t neglect our concern for you.
Even if you have an older sister, we will still love you…
Was she overthinking it?
Or was she shamefully substituting her original emotions into this world?
Her thinking should probably change.
Lying on the bed to calm down, she didn’t fall asleep.
Xu Nian lifted the quilt covering her head, then took out a box from the cloth bag.
This was the Flux Artifact rewarded by the system after today’s simulation.
She originally thought of using it when she was alone.
After thinking for a moment…forget it.
She has a simulator, she doesn’t need to take such a big risk to personally try out what this thing does.
She decided to wait until she got the simulation chances tomorrow before using it.
This way it would be safer, and she could be bolder.
She has to make good use of the Golden Finger.
She put the box back into the cloth bag.
Slightly tidying up the cloth bag, she cleared out some useless things.
Only leaving the Flux Artifacts, red nose, and knife.
As for the holy sword…
Throw it in the trash.
She will never use this kind of thing a second time!
Absolutely not!
She packed it in a plastic bag, even wrapped it in several layers, making sure you couldn’t see what it was from the outside, before stuffing it into the trash can.
Next, it’s time to prepare for tomorrow.
Taking a good bath, wearing pajamas, Xu Nian picked out a dress in her closet.
Tomorrow’s outfit has to be gorgeous yet not gaudy.
Picking and choosing, she couldn’t determine the answer she was satisfied with.
After thinking about it, she decided to choose the best one.
Although it was indeed a bit gaudy.
But in the first simulation, Su Qingya’s eyes were glued to it, wasn’t it?
She will definitely be satisfied with her outfit.
As long as Su Qingya is satisfied, after all, it’s for her to see.
After choosing the clothes, she took them out of the closet and placed them in a convenient place to take.
A smile appeared on her face.
“Then see you tomorrow, Trash Fish Qingya~”
