Qianchan said, "After all, this is based on my experience."

Chapter 180 How could 180 be that fast!

Lingling felt that things were different now than before, and it was now necessary to tell Yuanxing about that matter.

"Yuanxing, I have something to tell you, only to you."

"Ah."

Although she didn't know what it was about, Yuanxing nodded and went to a corner with Lingling. After making sure no one would disturb them, she asked, "It's about Lingxing, right?"

"It's about Lingxing—"

Yuanxing felt she knew what Lingling wanted to say, so she spoke first: "I won't take back what I said to you because of this. I will still let her join as a member of the second team, so Lingling, you don't need to worry."

"It's not that."

Lingling shook her head, denying Yuanxing's guess: "Do you remember the first time you came to me, I brought a baby to Momomo?"

"do not remember."

Lingling remained silent, deciding it best to get straight to the point: "Me and your daughter."

"Sister Hongshi said that it would have to go through many rounds of screening before it could be sent over by the baby-giving crane. It can't be that fast!"

Lingling raised an eyebrow: "Don't you remember?"

Yuanxing remained expressionless, as rigid as a robot: "I don't remember. I have absolutely no recollection of almost becoming a mother at sixteen. That kind of thing simply doesn't register in my brain."

"That child is from the future, not your or my child now."

Yuanxing was stunned for a few seconds, then recovered: "The child of the future doesn't matter. As expected of a magical girl, traveling through time and coming from the future is a standard story. So..." After realizing that she hadn't become a mother at sixteen, Yuanxing returned to normal a little: "You want to tell me that Lingxing is my and your future daughter, and that she came from the future mainly to steal my woman?"

Ling Ling had been expressionless, but after hearing Yuan Xing's conclusion, she couldn't take it anymore and burst out laughing: "Your conclusion—"

Ling Ling took a deep breath, trying to remain calm, but when she thought of what Yuan Xing had just said, she laughed again: "No—"

Lingling tried again and again, but whenever she thought of what Yuanxing had just said, she couldn't help but break down and would always laugh.

Yuanxing didn't urge her; she just watched from there. Lingling was usually expressionless, which made her smile all the more captivating. No matter how many times you looked at her, you could never get enough.

Lingling quickly noticed that Yuanxing was staring intently at her, and her smile vanished completely, leaving only a blush on her face.

"Why aren't you smiling? I love Lingling's smile the most. Every time I see Lingling's smile, I feel happy from the bottom of my heart."

Lingling raised her hand and gently punched Yuanxing's shoulder: "I'm talking to you about something serious. Like I said before, what are you planning to do, Yuanxing?"

"Even if you ask me, I'm just a sixteen-year-old girl. I have no experience being a mother. You should ask someone with experience about this. Besides, I'm a hands-off parent. I don't even have much experience being a daughter, let alone being a mother."

Lingling said, "That's great. My mom doesn't know the answer to this question either. In that case, I'll just have to ask her at the company."

"it is good."

Although individual communication is no longer meaningful, seeking help from everyone is the right thing to do at this moment.

However, this seemingly simple problem turned out to be far more difficult than expected during internal discussions at Starlight Co., Ltd. The company was first divided into three groups: the "hands-off" group consisting of Yuanxing, Qianchan, and Yeliu; then Lingling and Qingyin, whose existence was practically nonexistent; and finally, Miyou, who didn't exist at all.

This is absolutely amazing; you can't find a truly traditional mother even with six people together.

So all the members turned their attention to Tao Ying and Hua Yi.

Hua Yi immediately said, "Don't look at me, my condition is actually similar to yours."

The only one left to rely on is Tao Ying. Tao Ying is the type whose family is very strict, which means she is different from everyone else!

When she realized that everyone was watching her, Tao Ying, who was always calm and even a bit self-centered, started to break out in a cold sweat. Clearly, she wasn't that interested in the topic.

Yuanxing asked, "Tell me about it, Taoying."

"Uh···"

Tao Ying crossed her arms to support her chin: "When you take out a test paper with a score of 99, she will chase after you and ask why you are missing one point, what you did not know, and why you did not get a perfect score."

Miyu opened her mouth in surprise: "Huh?"

Tao Ying continued, "They'll say things like, 'Look at how amazing other kids are,' or 'They're so talented.'"

Qingyin covered her mouth to prevent herself from uttering a single syllable.

Tao Ying continued, "You'll casually give away things you like to others, then say that your mother will buy you new ones, and then you'll bring back completely different things."

"Uh."

Yuanxing wanted to say something, but for a moment he didn't know what to say, so he remained silent.

Mi You was more direct: "Luckily there wasn't, otherwise it would have been quite scary."

In short, there's not a single useful person among them. So how should I get along with Lingxing from now on? I guess I should just treat her as a friend. At least I have experience in dealing with friends and know how to handle things.

Yuanxing was silent for a moment before saying, "No matter what, Lingxing is probably just being coquettish. After all, I'm the type who knows what's important, and as my future daughter, I'm not the type to go to extremes."

Lingling said, "But I am."

This attack was so effective that Yuanxing collapsed onto the table, clutching his head in agony, trying to shut himself out of the world.

Miyou had only ever seen Lingling attack others before, but today was the first time she'd witnessed her attack Yuanxing. Although the attack was completely unintentional, it was still incredibly powerful. She also found it strange that Yuanxing would say she wasn't the type to go to extremes. How did she come to such a misconception? Miyou felt that Yuanxing was the only one in their company who wouldn't go to extremes.

After dealing with the Demon Demon incident, Starlight Company announced its dissolution, and Ling Ling returned home on her own.

She noticed something was wrong as soon as she entered the house. It was clear that her mother wasn't alone; judging from the shoes by the door, there were two other people in the house.

Judging from the shoe size, both of them are of petite build...

Could it be...?

Lingling had a certain suspicion in her mind, and her suspicion was soon proven true, because Sister Hongshi and Lingxing were in her living room. After seeing Lingling, Sister Hongshi even had the leisure to greet her.

Lingling turned and ran, intending to notify Yuanxing immediately. However, as soon as she turned around, she found herself floating and slowly drifting towards the living room.

"You're being naughty, you deserve a spanking."

Lingxing excitedly ran over to the emu bar and slapped Lingling on the butt.

As Hong Shi watched this unfold, her eyebrows twitched. This was the first time she had discovered the child's cruelty; she was truly a model of a filial daughter who beat and scolded her mother.

Chapter 181, we call it high efficiency.

After returning home, Lingling slapped herself on the bottom and realized that she had temporarily lost her freedom. She just didn't know what would happen tomorrow. If she couldn't go to school tomorrow, Yuanxing would definitely notice that something was wrong and come to investigate.

A rash action would cause Lingxing to wander off to who-knows-where. The other witches are all easily identifiable; their locations are readily known. But Lingxing is different; she's the stealth type, and finding her alone requires considerable effort. If this incident alerts her and she escapes, her whereabouts will become even more unknown. If Lingxing doesn't escape, things will be even worse, since Yuanxing's side is no match for them.

I wonder if it's possible to transmit intelligence using a mobile phone.

Lingling looked at Hongshi and Lingxing and found that the two of them were sitting on a double armchair. Lingxing was kneeling on the armchair with her bare feet, leaning against Hongshi as if she had no bones, as if she was afraid that any part of her body would not be in contact with Hongshi.

Contrary to what I heard from Yuanxing, Lingxing is very quiet now, and doesn't seem to have become a witch or been manipulated.

Lingling asked, "What's the situation now?"

"This child has been manipulated."

As if to prove her point, Hongshi reached for the diamond crown on Lingxing's head. The crown shimmered with light, blocking Hongshi's hand. Lingxing herself didn't seem to care, letting Hongshi try to remove her crown; she was completely unfazed by Hongshi's probing.

Suddenly, Hongshi's hand could directly touch the crown, and even stroked Lingxing's forehead back and forth: "After I put away the idea of ​​taking off the diamond crown, the crown was no longer in my touch."

Hongshi's hand moved down along Lingxing's forehead, nose, and neck.

"Master is a lecher!"

Lingxing cheered and even squeezed closer to Hongshi.

"Even if I wanted to touch the crown, I could still touch Rin's body, but..."

Crimson World's hand moved downwards, but when it touched the belt, it was blocked by the belt's radiance and could not go any further: "And this one too, as long as you have the intention to take it off, you can't touch it."

Lingling nodded in understanding, but she understood something else even better: Yuanxing's often-repeated phrase, "Master is a lecher!" She had now realized that Sister Hong really was a lecher, and most importantly, she did it all with a straight face, without ever realizing that there was anything wrong with her behavior.

Hongshi didn't think there was anything wrong with her behavior just now. She continued, "These two items are ancient relics. The diamond crown changed Lingxing's way of thinking, and the sun belt ensured that she could think clearly even when she was being controlled. Even when she turned into a witch, she still wouldn't let her emotions run wild."

Lingling asked instinctively, "Isn't that because she's been going on wild runs for years?"

"Oh, come on, I didn't go berserk. It's just that my feelings for Master are too sincere."

"This child's witch transformation is that of an arcane witch, and among arcane witches, the Fool is particularly troublesome. The Fool symbolizes the beginning of all things, and is a witch with infinite possibilities. In other words, it also means that Lingxing is in a blank slate state. Good and evil are blurred to her. Her choices are based on complete emotion, and she takes the initiative in everything from the heart. All order is abandoned, and everything is allowed. But the way she takes it is ultimately imitation. She acts in the most efficient way that she knows."

"Does 'imitating' mean that this operation is actually imitating Farstar?"

Lingling immediately understood. The main reason Lingxing acted this way was because of the previous time loop with Yuanxing. Yuanxing may have gained considerable benefits during the time loop, so Lingxing imitated it and used the exact same methods. As for whether she used the same methods because she was being manipulated, or whether she was acting to strengthen her resolve, only Lingxing herself knew.

"There's also someone imitating you. Didn't you plant explosive tags under the Paradise building to threaten her, leaving Anlian helpless? Honestly, it's not Anlian's fault at all. How about you apologize to her sometime? Because you did that kind of thing, Lingxing used the same method as you, but it's a purer, more thorough, and more direct threat than yours."

Hongshi grabbed Lingxing's face tightly: "This child told me she wanted me to date her, or she'd poison the city's water system?! I'm telling you two, how did you raise your child?!"

Oh, it's related to me too.

After realizing this, Lingxing turned and left, saying, "I'm going to take a shower."

"you--"

Seeing Lingling run away quickly, Hongshi could only give up what he wanted to say and focus his attention back on Lingxing.

She had just given Lingling some kind of hint, but she didn't know if Lingling had understood it.

Lying in the bathtub, Lingling felt there was a hidden meaning in Hongshi's words. Hongshi assumed Anlian was responsible for all the bad things, and now she was being asked to apologize to Anlian? This didn't make sense at all. Looking at it from another angle, why should she apologize to Anlian? What would Anlian say after the apology? She'd probably ask why she apologized, or what Hongshi was doing, right?

What did you say back then? Did you tell Anlian the truth?

Lingling had a sudden flash of inspiration and felt that she had grasped the core of the matter.

The apology wasn't Hong Shi's intention; rather, Hong Shi wanted her to seek help from Liu Anlian. Compared to letting Lingxing run wild, Anlian was someone she could occasionally cooperate with.

However, Lingling would not apologize to Anlian, much less ask for her help. In Lingling's eyes, Anlian was the least trustworthy person; having manipulated her mother and turned her into a witch, Anlian was someone she would never bow down to. Ultimately, Hongshijie suggested she ask Anlian for help because Hongshijie didn't know she could contact other allies besides Anlian. But in reality, it wasn't as simple as she thought. She could easily contact Yuying; if asking Anlian for help could solve the problem, then asking Yuying would be the same.

Lingling fiddled with her phone, unsure whether to dial the number now or tomorrow. Making a call rashly now might arouse Lingxing's suspicion, which would be counterproductive.

As Ling Ling pondered her next move, her phone rang by itself, and the name on the caller ID was the very name she had been thinking about.

Jade reflection.

Lingling answered the phone, and Yuying's voice came directly from the other end: "I feel like you've been thinking about me. What's wrong, my lovely disciple?"

Chapter 182 The Top Wish of 182 Elementary School Students

Hearing Yu Ying's voice on the phone, Ling Ling immediately hung up. Rushing in like this isn't a good thing; Yu Ying's eagerness couldn't be anything good. It was best not to ask her for help. Besides, who's your disciple? Don't try to extort money from me, okay?

Once you hang up on a communication request, it will immediately come back a second and a third time. The communication requests are endless, no matter how many times you hang up.

Left with no other choice, Lingling put her phone into airplane mode to keep it quiet for the time being. She decided to put any questions about asking Anlian or Yuying aside until tomorrow.

The next morning, Lingling was shaken awake. As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Lingxing riding on her back. The sight of the diamond crown on Lingxing's head instantly dispelled Lingling's sleepiness. She immediately imagined many dangerous things Lingxing might do, but reality was not as she had thought.

Lingxing said, "Time to go to school! The sun's already high in the sky, aren't you up yet?! Get up and go to school right now!"

Eh?

Ling Ling never expected to hear such words. She felt like their roles had been reversed!

After saying those words, Lingxing jumped up excitedly, even spinning around in place: "Yay! I get to say something like that too! Master! Listen to me!"

Lingling was speechless. This was the number one wish of a primary school student. She really didn't know what to say.

As soon as Lingling came downstairs, she found that Lingxing had prepared a schoolbag and lunch for her. She was standing at the door looking at her with eager eyes, as if she was looking forward to sending her off to school. No matter how you looked at it, it was just like a primary school student imitating her mother sending her off to school.

"Aren't you worried that I'll tell Yuanxing you're here after I go out?"

"Don't worry, you'll find out once you get out."

Lingling was thinking that she should call Yuanxing immediately after she went out to report Lingxing's location. To do this, she had even taken out her phone and was holding it in her hand. But the moment she stepped out of the house, the thought of Lingxing was erased from her mind.

Lingling stared at her phone, wondering why she had taken it out, and without a second thought, put it back in her pocket. After a morning of classes that wasn't particularly noteworthy, Lingling headed to the clubroom. Today's lunch break was much more subdued than usual; almost no one spoke, and all sorts of chewing sounds could be clearly heard.

Because of the quietness of the classroom, a knock on the door would be unusually easy to notice.

Everyone immediately looked towards the door, listening to the knocking and wondering if they should transform right away. After all, Lingxing's attack had just happened yesterday, and it would be troublesome if a similar situation occurred again.

"It's me! I've come to find my lovely disciple."

That voice...

Yuanxing had no memory of it, but she could at least be sure it wasn't Lingxing.

Lingling knew who this person was, and she immediately retorted, "Who is your disciple?"

The door opened, revealing the visitor outside: a little girl holding a tablet. Yuanxing and Lingling had met the little girl before; she was the one who attacked them during the "Magic Demon Demon" event and was then imprisoned in a barrier by Lingling. Now, this little girl was baring her teeth and displaying a threatening demeanor when she looked at Yuanxing.

The woman whose face was revealed on the little girl's tablet was a black-haired woman wearing a white cheongsam. She was beautiful, elegant, and graceful. If one did not know that she was the leader of a cult, one would definitely think that she was a gentle, kind, and approachable woman.

Although they had only met once, Yuanxing had a deep impression of her and instantly remembered her identity: "Yu Ying?"
