Flower Fairy: After transmigrating again, I became An'an's younger brother.

That evening, in Xia Tong's room, An Yingchun happily ate the strawberry pudding that Xia Tong had just given her.

Xia Tong watched as An Ying Chun devoured the strawberry pudding in small, quick bites, and a smile unconsciously crept onto her lips. This "feeding-soothing-reaching-consensus" approach seemed surprisingly effective.

As Xia Tong lay back in bed, she couldn't help but sigh.

Xia An'an, the older sister, is the destined Flower Fairy Magic Messenger, tasked with collecting all the Flower Fairy Kings...

He doesn't have much magic power left in his body right now. If he doesn't want to end up like a roadside monster, he can only try to recruit these Elf Kings. He can't rely on his own slow cultivation, and there's not enough time.

Thinking of this, Xia Tong couldn't help but get up and look up at Shadow Chun. If it weren't for the guardian contract that bound the two of them together, he wouldn't have such a headache.

Well, what's done is done, let's go to sleep.

Xia Tong turned over and quickly fell asleep.

The next morning, after eating the last sandwich cookie, Shadow Tsubaki shook the empty cookie box and tossed it aside.

Then she stared at Xia Tong, who was still sleeping on the bed, flapped her wings, and simply stepped on Xia Tong's body, grabbing Xia Tong's collar and tugging at it.

The soft rustling of fabric pulled Xia Tong from his sleep. He opened his eyes groggily and met An Yingchun's dark red gaze—

The girl was still holding onto his collar, and crumbs of biscuits stuck to her skirt rubbed onto his clothes.

"Hmm? What's wrong?"

Still in a daze, Xia Tong asked a question subconsciously.

Shadow Chun didn't let go; instead, she tightened her grip on his collar, her dark red eyes fixed on him, her tone brooking no refusal: "There's no more food."

"No food?"

Xia Tong wasn't fully awake yet, her mind a beat slow to process things. She then pointed to the desk and said lazily, "Aren't there a lot of them in that corner over there?"

As soon as he finished speaking, his head lolled to the side and he fell asleep again.

Seeing that he had fallen asleep again, Shadow Chun planned to pinch his cheek, but the moment she touched him—

"?!"

Xia Tong sprang out of bed, instantly snapping out of her daze. "So cold!"

Shadow Camellia was startled by him and flapped her wings to take flight.

Xia Tong grabbed the alarm clock from the bedside table, and after seeing the time, she instantly exploded: "What are you doing! It's only 5:30, there's still plenty of time before 6!"

Shadow Camellia hovered in mid-air, blinked, seemingly not understanding why Xia Tong was suddenly so agitated.

She looked down at her hands, her fingertips still tinged with the warmth of his cheek. Then she shook her hands, her tone somewhat self-righteous: "There's no more food."

Xia Tong rubbed her numb cheeks, glanced at the pile of snack wrappers on the table, and laughed in exasperation: "Didn't you say that you flower fairies don't need to eat?"

An Yingchun landed on the edge of the bed, her toes lightly tapping the sheets, avoiding his gaze, but still stubbornly retorted, "Huh? I don't remember saying that."

Xia Tong was speechless at her blatant lie. She glanced at the packaging bag on the table, then at the large bag of snacks she had prepared on the corner of the table (which was now empty).

"You've finished eating? You didn't eat all night, did you?"

His tone was a mix of anger and helplessness: "This is the food I'm planning to use to laze around in my room playing games all day."

When An Yingchun heard the words "rations," she looked into his eyes but still stubbornly said, "Who told you to put it in such an obvious place? I thought it was for me."

As he finished speaking, his voice trailed off, and his gaze drifted towards the window—

Then she suddenly leaned closer, conjured a white camellia flower with a faint dark red glow, and gently placed it in Xia Tong's palm: "This is for you."

Seeing Xia Tong's stunned expression, she added, "Being able to block a minor attack is more important than your game, right?"

Xia Tong shook the camellia flower. "Your compensation is quite unique, but it's definitely more important than the game."

Afterwards, Xia Tong lost her sleepiness, so she simply got up to wash up. As she passed by the window, she also watered the two potted plants by the window. The seeds she planted yesterday had already sprouted.

He had just started walking towards the kitchen when Shadow Chun followed him: "Where are you going?"

"Go to the kitchen and see if there's anything to eat."

Xia Tong rubbed his stomach; the commotion earlier had made him a little hungry.

"Give me some too."

Upon hearing this, Xia Tong turned around and looked at the other person in confusion. She glanced at the other person's flat stomach, raised her eyebrows, and thought: Didn't this child eat all night?

"It sounds like you're thinking something very rude."

"No," Xia Tong shook her head, "You're overthinking it."

after a while……

"What is this?"

Shadow Chun stared blankly at the white, unidentified liquid in front of her.

"It's milk."

Xia Tong, who had just been cooking porridge in the kitchen, sat down at the table and poured himself a glass of porridge.

At this moment, An Yingchun looked at Xia Tong, who was drinking with great relish, and then she also tried a little.

Hmm, it tastes pretty good.

She then picked it up and drank it all in one gulp.

After placing the empty milk cup on the table, Shadow Tsubaki licked her lips. "This so-called milk is actually quite good!"

As soon as she finished speaking, she heard footsteps coming downstairs from upstairs.

"Tsubaki, quickly turn back into a card." Xia Tong's gaze turned to the corner downstairs.

"Um?"

Shadow Camellia scoffed, "Don't worry, ordinary people can't see me."

"Who knows if others also have the potential to see flower fairies."

Xia Tong turned around and poked An Ying Chun's clothes, "So you'd better not appear in other people's sight casually."

"Alright."

Shadow Camellia then transformed back into a card, gently landing in Xia Tong's palm. He quickly stuffed the card into his pocket, patted it to make sure it was in place, and as soon as he turned around, his gaze met Xia Mu, who had just come downstairs.

"Good morning, Dad."

Xia Tong withdrew her hand from her pocket, trying to make her tone sound natural, and casually picked up the two empty glasses on the table.

"I heard a noise in the kitchen and thought a thief had broken in."

Xia Mu rubbed his eyes and sat down, his gaze sweeping across the dining table. "Xiao Tong, why are you up so early?"

"I had no choice; I woke up hungry, so I got up to find something to eat."

As Xia Tong spoke, she walked towards the kitchen, intending to wash the two cups.

"But there's not much food in the fridge, is there?"

"Yeah, so I made some myself."

"?"

Upon hearing this, Xia Mu followed Xia Tong into the kitchen, looked at the porridge that was cooking, and then glanced at Xia Tong, who seemed to be unharmed.

Xia Mu's gaze darted between the porridge pot and Xia Tong, then he suddenly smiled: "Wow, Xiao Tong, you can cook porridge by yourself now?"

"Just follow the instructions and cook it however you like, it's not difficult." Xia Tong chuckled twice.

"Not bad."

Xia Mu smiled and took out a few eggs from the refrigerator. "Perfect, Dad will make you an egg dish to eat with your porridge."

"Well then, Dad, good luck..."

Xia Tong smiled awkwardly, then returned to the dining table and sat down. He really couldn't compliment Xia Mu's cooking skills, but he figured he shouldn't mess up frying an egg.

Not long after, Xia An'an, who had just woken up, rubbed her eyes and came downstairs, sitting next to Xia Tong. Listening to the singing coming from the kitchen, she asked Xia Tong, "What is Daddy doing again?"

"egg."

Xia Tong poured a glass of milk and then pushed it towards her.

Xia An'an took the milk, her fingertips touching the cold glass, instantly sobering her up. She sniffed, staring at the figures moving around in the kitchen, and whispered to Xia Tong, "Dad is the worst cook, I hope he won't... cook this time either."

Before he could finish speaking, Xia Mu came out with a plate. It looked like an ordinary scrambled egg dish, but he looked smug: "Look at my cooking skills, Dad. I made this 'mock crab' dish following Chef Huang's tutorial."

Afterwards, Xia Mu went into the kitchen again and served Xia Tong and Xia An'an two bowls of porridge.

"Chef Huang? Imitation crab?"

Xia Tong tilted her head in confusion as she looked at the dish on the table.

Fun fact: "crab-eating game" actually refers to a game where people in the past couldn't afford to eat crabs, so they used eggs and fish to simulate the taste of crabs, similar to the dish "fish-flavored shredded pork".

Xia Tong glanced at the "mock crab" dish, then took the initiative to try it, immediately receiving a mute buff after one bite—

No, no kind person would put ginger in their mock crab dish. Judging from this, they put in quite a lot. They also added a lot of vinegar to the ginger and egg stir-fry. This is way too much like "mock crab."

Eggs are inherently a very tender food, and now that I have them in my mouth, I can't chew them a second time.

Xia An'an looked at the pain mask on her younger brother's face and was too frightened to touch her chopsticks.

Forget it, I'll just have porridge.

Xia Tong secretly spat out the egg and started drinking the porridge. After all, he cooked the porridge himself. Although his cooking skills weren't great, he could still manage to cook porridge.

Xia An'an initially thought Xia Tong had developed pica when she saw him drinking porridge, but after she took a small sip herself, she found it wasn't so bad and started drinking it too.

After Xia Tong finished drinking, he said to Xia Mu and Xia An'an, "I'm full, I'm going out to play," and then he quickly went out and left.

"Be careful on the road."

After hearing this, Xia Mu gave him a few instructions, then realized what he meant and asked, "Are you going out to play so early?"

Then Xia Mu looked at An An and said, "An An, eat more."

After hearing this, Xia An'an chuckled and said, "Um... Dad, I'm full too, I'll go back to my room now."

"These two kids..."

Xia Mu sat at the dining table in the living room, picked up a piece of egg, and put it in his mouth.

The next second, it came out of Xia Mu's mouth. Then he scratched his head and muttered: "Wait a minute, I followed the tutorial exactly, why does this feel so weird..."
