I Became the Little Demon in Leading Role's Family-Chapter 175 - 176 How Did You Turn Yourself into Xiao Hei, Here Comes the Male Lead
Chapter 175: Chapter 176 How Did You Turn Yourself into Xiao Hei, Here Comes the Male Lead
Wu Wa’s hometown must have encountered some trouble, which was why Wu Wa was sent down the mountain—that much was almost too obvious not to consider, or rather, even though nothing had happened, the fear that something might urged them to have Wu Wa stay away.
Grandpa had said that everything would be okay.
Thus, Bai Zhi was willing to believe. For some reason, Bai Zhi always thought that Grandpa knew everything but didn’t tell them, and lately he had become busier, yet he stopped working altogether, which was really strange.
"Wu Wa, I believe in you."
Bai Zhi looked seriously at Wu Wa and repeated, knowing that Wu Wa was actually quite smart but sometimes a bit lazy.
"Ah Zhi, will you always be with me?"
Suddenly, Wu Wa wondered if Ah Zhi wanted her to walk this path alone.
"Of course, I will always be with you. I may not have taken your bracelet, but I need to go cook for you all, so I will wait for you at the finish line.
Wu Wa, see, you are amazing. I believe you can do it, don’t you think?"
Bai Zhi pointed not far from the Big Tree to a thatched cottage that was now visible and so close.
"Mmm, I can."
Wu Wa met Bai Zhi’s gaze and nodded vigorously, trusting her.
Not like the others who said she just knew how to play, or that if she weren’t Mommy’s daughter no one would like her.
Ah Zhi’s eyes were especially beautiful, like they could speak, telling her, "Wu Wa, you definitely can."
"Ah Zhi, I definitely can, I will find you. Wait for me."
Wu Wa firmly looked at Bai Zhi, promising while gripping her hand slightly harder, showing she would truly try.
Mommy said, "Wu Wa, you need to learn to grow up."
But only Ah Zhi said, "Wu Wa, I believe in you."
What she wanted most were these few words,
She was very capable, strong, and knew many things. But if they didn’t believe in her, then why should she even try?
But now, Ah Zhi said she believed in her.
Bai Zhi flashed a big bright smile, her eyes clearer than ever.
She gently hugged Wu Wa and patted her head.
"Wu Wa, I believe in you, and our future. It will get better and better, and we will enter middle school, high school, and university together, do you agree?"
"Mmm." Wu Wa felt a twinge in her nose. Ah Zhi’s talk of the future was so beautiful, and she really wanted to strive alongside her.
"Alright, keep it up, I’m leaving. I’ll go make your lunch, okay?"
"Ah Zhi, then how did you learn this?"
Wu Wa was curious how Ah Zhi managed to move around here with such ease.
Clearly, she felt dizzy here, even though it looked very close, it was actually far, but Ah Zhi just led her straight here.
"I don’t know, but I just can find this place, maybe it’s luck."
If Bai Zhi had to explain the reason, she really couldn’t. She didn’t know why; she just could find the way, and as for the principles, sorry, she didn’t know.
Maybe this was her golden finger? A bit trivial, being able to find ways in the mountains, yet clueless in the county town...
"Ah Zhi is really amazing." Wu Wa smiled even happier, as if happier than knowing herself.
"Wu Wa, keep it up, I’ll go cook and wait for you."
Bai Zhi smiled too, being with Wu Wa really felt relaxing.
"Okay. Go ahead, I want to eat Roasted Chicken."
"Alright."
Bai Zhi walked slowly forward, waving back at Wu Wa. Wu Wa watched the direction Bai Zhi left, but she walked forward for a long time only to find herself back where she started.
This was indeed frustrating.
After trying for a long time, Wu Wa wasn’t in a hurry anymore; she just sat down and began to recall her surroundings.
...
When Bai Zhi arrived at the thatched cottage, the old man wasn’t there, but the kitchen was already stocked with a lot of ingredients, including chicken, duck, fish, and meat. Were they planning to eat for several days?
She looked around and, surprisingly, there was no firewood—negative points.
Bai Zhi decided to go behind the thatched cottage to fetch some, remembering the old man had mentioned it was back there.
Just as Bai Zhi turned to the back, she saw someone using a very small hoe to dig the ground.
The person looked quite tanned, with sleeves and pant legs rolled up.
"You..."
Before Bai Zhi could finish, he turned around, and Bai Zhi paused for a second then burst into laughter.
"Hahaha, Moh Li, why have you turned into a little black person?"
He really looked black, not just black but peeling too...
Was he too delicate, or had he been to Africa?
"How did you end up looking like this?"
This is really horrifying, isn’t it?
Those two dark circles, comparable to a panda.
"It’s nothing, I’ve just been digging for a month."
Moh Li pointed to the large mountain area behind them, all freshly turned soil.
"But..." Bai Zhi touched her chin and thought seriously, "I remember, you only came at night, how did you get so tanned?"
Moh Li: "..." Could she stop fixating on this issue?
"I’ve been coming here after school recently, I just can’t handle the sun, is that a problem? It’ll be better in a couple of days..."
Moh Li looked somewhat embarrassed; why was Bai Zhi so nosy?
"Is it that, the Rejuvenation Powder? Did you use that?"
Bai Zhi definitely remembered it, the old man had a book of recipes, all sorts of little concoctions, and she was researching it too.
The so-called Rejuvenation Powder was just powdered medicinal herbs that could adjust your skin color to whatever you desired, sort of like foundation but completely natural, with no side effects.
It was normal for her to research it, but why was Moh Li studying it?
"Why are you..." Moh Li was surprised and then felt depressed.
He had been digging for so long just to learn that recipe, yet Bai Zhi casually mentioned it, making him feel a bit cold inside.
Is the difference in cooking skills really that big?
"But really, you’re silly. You say your face got this black, how are you going to explain that your hands and feet are yellow, hahaha..."
Bai Zhi couldn’t hold back any longer, he was indeed a genius.
With a black head and sun-tanned arms and feet, the image was too beautiful, she was nearly in tears.
"And then you still wear a white shirt to contrast your black face and yellow hands, hahaha..."
Bai Zhi thought, Moh Li must be doing this on purpose, definitely on purpose, to make her die of laughter.
Moh Li felt like he’d taken a ten-thousand-point critical hit.
It was just that he wanted to experiment a bit, and then an error occurred, and now he couldn’t wash it off.
He was having a hard time.
"No, didn’t you think about washing it off? When Wu Wa and the others arrive, they’re going to laugh you to death."
Bai Zhi was laughing uncontrollably, oh dear, she couldn’t help it.
"It won’t wash off, I’m waiting for the master, but he hasn’t come yet. I don’t plan on seeing them; I’m leaving right away."
Moh Li didn’t intend to let the others know about his presence; it wasn’t fitting.
Hearing this, Bai Zhi realized. Moh Li didn’t want people to know.
"Then your face..."
No, no, she still wanted to laugh.
