Chapter 709: She Has a Pair of Zombie Parents (5)
Perhaps it was precisely this realization that, after meeting the original host’s cousin, Ruan Chengzhi, the original host’s father, Ruan Xian, agreed to the other’s suggestion to voluntarily contribute the Crystal Core from his head.
Humans feared Ruan Xian, this increasingly powerful Zombie King, and Ruan Xian was also afraid of his increasingly strong self.
After becoming the Zombie King, he was able to control himself not to touch those disgusting things, yet the instinct belonging to zombies still existed.
Qiann Yan analyzed from those memories that Ruan Xian should be unable to grasp whether he would lose the human will if he progressed further in the future.
Rather than risk possibly harming his daughter in the future, it was better to entrust her to a trusted person now.
Ruan Xian’s idea was not wrong, he just misplaced his trust in a petty person.
The original host didn’t understand why people feared Ruan Xian, and there’s nothing wrong with that; she was just too young to grasp it.
Everyone has their own position, but it can’t be denied that Ruan Chengzhi is a petty person.
Qiann Yan proficiently cooked the noodles, and out of the corner of her eye, she saw Ning Lanxin waving her stiff hand, seemingly to praise her.
Afraid she might not understand, she picked up the small notebook next to her, bent her stiff waist, and wrote there.
After Qiann Yan scooped all the noodles into three bowls, Ning Lanxin finally handed the notebook to her. Despite those eyes being just whites, Qiann Yan could understand her expectations.
As for Ning Lanxin not looking good now, she didn’t care at all. Sometimes, the appearance doesn’t dictate whether someone looks good or not.
She picked up the notebook, and on it was written: Yanyan is terrific, so clever, mom loves you.
Qiann Yan stared at the words somewhat lost in thought, unwittingly recalling her biological mother, immersed in memories.
There aren’t many foolish Princes or Princesses; they all have to learn a myriad of things from a young age. Even if the Emperor overlooks, the concubines would not allow their children to be clueless.
If one doesn’t learn, would they just be a simpleton, making the Emperor despise them even more?
If one excels, and the Emperor notices, he will reward them and remember this outstanding child, who won’t fare too badly in the future.
As for her biological mother, she never intended to nurture her, displaying unabashed disgust that anyone could see.
The mother probably didn’t foresee that she would have an eidetic memory, learn quickly, and naturally possess Divine Power.
Among many siblings, she was the one who rose to the highest position.
In past lifetimes, she harbored grudges over this matter, but after experiencing it multiple times, she didn’t mind much. Much like the burn scar on her face, from caring to feeling numb. That mask once was to hide ugliness, but she later found it rather appealing.
A rigid hand waved in front of Qiann Yan, pulling her back to reality, facing Ning Lanxin’s vacant white eyes, Qiann Yan calmly said: "Mom, when will dad be back?"
"It’s time to eat."
Ning Lanxin was somewhat puzzled about why Qiann Yan had dazed off just now, but upon hearing Qiann Yan’s words, she continued writing in the notebook.
Qiann Yan carried the three bowls of noodles outside, and Pang Ju Yuan Yuan eagerly lifted his tail as he approached her.
After placing the noodles on the table, she prepared a bowl of cat food for Yuanyuan, who was very satisfied, cheerfully munching on it.
Qiann Yan’s fingers touched the cat’s back; after Yuanyuan awakened his superpower, his fur appeared much shinier and shed less, indeed a good thing.
"You’ve also awakened your superpower. From now on, you should prepare the cat food yourself," Qiann Yan said, "Does a bowl per meal suffice?"
She considered that Yuanyuan now being a Superpower Cat must have slightly different dietary needs than before.
