After transmigrating into the body of the Jade Rat Spirit, I became Nezha's adopted sister.

Nezha looked away, his tone curt: "I wasn't looking at anything."

Bai Yeying chuckled to herself. It used to be Nezha who led her around; today the roles were reversed, what a novel feeling!

Are you happy today?

Nezha thought for a moment, then nodded seriously: "Happy."

Which part is your favorite?

"When we were hanging that old man," Nezha's eyes lit up, "the way he thrashed around was hilarious."

"Anything else?"

"And..." Nezha thought for a moment, then suddenly looked up at her, "when you were blocking my way."

Bai Yeying paused for a moment, then her smile deepened: "Is it amazing?"

"Impressive," Nezha answered without hesitation, "Even more impressive than Master."

Bai Yeying was overjoyed. If Taiyi Zhenren heard this, I wonder if he would cry.

As they talked, they returned to the skies above Chen Tang Pass. The sun was setting, dusk was falling, and the lights of countless homes gradually came on.

Bai Yeying descended from the clouds and landed on the open ground in the backyard of the Li residence.

I had barely steadied myself when I heard a series of hurried footsteps.

Lady Yin, lifting the hem of her skirt, stumbled over, her face streaked with tears. She hugged Nezha tightly, sobbing uncontrollably, "My child...you scared your mother to death..."

Li Jing followed behind her, his expression complex. He looked at Bai Yeying, his lips moved, and finally he spoke, "Miss, about today's events..."

"You're welcome." Bai Yeying waved her hand to interrupt him. "I told you, I'm not helping you."

Li Jing choked for a moment, but couldn't say anything.

Madam Yin held Nezha and cried for a long time, then suddenly looked up at Bai Yeying. Her eyes were red and her face was still streaked with tears, but she managed a sincere smile: "Miss, please stay for dinner tonight. I'll cook something delicious for you myself."

Bai Yeying paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "Okay."

Dinner was served in the main hall.

Although it was supposed to be a family dinner, the atmosphere was somewhat subtle.

Li Jing sat in the main seat, occasionally stealing glances at Bai Yeying, seemingly wanting to say something but holding back.

Madam Yin sat beside Bai Yeying, diligently serving her food while saying, "Miss, try this. It's a fish from Chentang Pass, very fresh. And this is some pickled vegetables I made myself; it's best with porridge..."

Bai Yeying accepted everything offered and ate with great relish.

Nezha sat on her other side, burying his head in his rice, occasionally glancing up at her before quickly looking down again.

The meal went fairly well.

After the meal, Madam Yin held Bai Yeying's hand, her eyes reddening again: "Miss, if it weren't for you today, my son... I really don't know how to thank you..."

"Madam, there's no need for that," Bai Yeying said gently. "I've said it before, Nezha's affairs are my affairs. It's what I should do."

Madam Yin paused, her gaze shifting between the woman and Nezha, before asking uncertainly, "Miss, what is your relationship with my son?"

Is he a pervert? Nezha is only six years old!

Bai Yeying thought for a moment and smiled, "It's a very important relationship."

Lady Yin wanted to ask more questions, but Li Jing stopped her with a look.

"Madam," Li Jing stood up, "it's getting late, let the young lady rest early."

Madam Yin then realized what was happening and quickly nodded, "Yes, yes, Miss, you must be tired after a long day. Go and rest. I've had a guest room prepared..."

"No need," Nezha suddenly said. "She'll sleep with me."

Everyone was taken aback.

Madam Yin looked at her son with a complicated expression.

No way, no way, it can't be what she thinks, right?

Li Jing frowned slightly, about to speak, when he saw Bai Yeying nod with a smile: "Okay, I'll squeeze in with him."

Lady Yin: "..."

Li Jing: "......"

How can this girl be so unrefined?

But Bai Yeying had already pulled Nezha out of the main hall, leaving a room full of people looking at each other in bewilderment.

..................

The next morning, Bai Yeying opened her eyes and found that Nezha was not beside her. On her pillow was a dragon tendon, neatly folded, with a small note on top.

The note had a few words scrawled on it: "You promised to braid my belt."

Bai Yeying looked at the note and couldn't help but laugh out loud.

I didn't expect you to still remember this!

She picked up the dragon tendon and began to figure out how to weave it. She was actually quite good at weaving belts.

Back when I was at Trap Mountain, I learned a few tricks in my spare time. Although I can't compare to the Weaver Girl's skills, I can still manage to braid a belt.

She sat cross-legged on the bed, her fingers flying across the paper, and the dragon tendon gradually took shape in her hands.

About an hour later, a belt was finished. The silver-white tendons were woven into intricate cloud patterns, with several strands of silk thread interspersed in the middle. Each end was adorned with a pearl, and then it was tempered by condensing true fire.

After finishing, Bai Yeying held it in her hand, looked at it over and over, and nodded in satisfaction.

Just then, the door was pushed open. Nezha walked in carrying a tray with a bowl of porridge and two small dishes on it.

Seeing that Bai Yeying was awake, he paused, then walked over casually and placed the tray on the table: "Let's eat."

Bai Yeying looked at the steaming bowl of porridge, somewhat surprised: "You made this?"

"I got it from the kitchen," Nezha answered frankly, then his gaze fell on the belt in her hand, his eyes lighting up. "Is it finished?"

Bai Yeying smiled and handed it to him: "Here, try it."

Nezha took the belt and examined it closely. The cloud pattern was intricately woven, with gold threads subtly visible and pearls adorning it; it was even more beautiful than he had imagined.

He smiled slightly, then quickly pursed his lips and looked up at her: "Not bad."

Bai Yeying laughed: "If it's alright, then tie it up."

Nezha tied the belt around his waist. Today he was wearing a dark-colored robe, and with the silver-white belt tied around his waist, he looked much more energetic.

He looked at himself in the mirror, nodded in satisfaction, then suddenly remembered something and turned to Bai Yeying: "Does it look good?"

Bai Yeying rested her chin on her hand, smiling as she looked at him: "Beautiful."

Nezha's ears turned slightly red, and she turned her face away: "Hmph."

Bai Yeying smiled as she got up, walked to the table, sat down, and began to drink her porridge.

The porridge was warm, the rice cooked until soft and tender, and paired with refreshing side dishes, it was just right for eating. She exclaimed, "It's delicious!"

Nezha sat opposite her, his little face serious: "Of course, I chose it."

After having breakfast, the two left the courtyard.

The manor was much quieter than yesterday. The servants and maids all bowed respectfully when they saw Bai Yeying. They had witnessed the battle yesterday and knew that this young lady was not to be trifled with.

Li Jing had gone to the military camp, and Madam Yin was doing needlework in the main hall. Seeing the two enter, she quickly put down her work and said with a smile, "Nezha, you've brought the young lady? Please, have a seat."

Bai Yeying sat down opposite her, her gaze falling on the half-finished little robe.

Lady Yin noticed her gaze and smiled, "It's for Nezha. It's getting cold, he needs to wear another coat."

Looking at the fine stitches, Bai Yeying suddenly felt a pang of emotion.

Nezha sat to the side, idly playing with his Qiankun Ring, seemingly uninterested in such mundane family matters.

Madam Yin glanced at him, then smiled and said to Bai Yeying, "This child has never been able to sit still since he was little. His father always scolds him, but I think it's quite good; he's lively."
