Chapter 15: 15. Kissing Bibi Dong
"Its effect lasts for a quarter of an hour, and it can be paused and resumed freely."
Qian Renjue smiled as he continued to explain, completely unaware of the confused expression on Bibi Dong's face.
After speaking, Qian Renjue took two steps closer to Bibi Dong and held out the silk pouch in front of her.
"Sister, this is for you."
Bibi Dong frowned and didn't move. Seeing the serious expression on Qian Renjue's face, she couldn't help but ask:
"Are you joking with me?"
"..."
Qian Renjue's smile froze. He looked at Bibi Dong in confusion, then suddenly understood her reaction.
Hurriedly, he explained:
"I'm not, sister."
"What I'm saying is true, it's all true!"
Bibi Dong sighed, pinching the bridge of her nose. She couldn't believe she was arguing with a child who didn't understand anything.
She waved her hand coldly.
"Fine, I believe you. Leave the item and you can go."
"Sister, I'm not lying to you!"
Qian Renjue took another step forward.
"I said, I believe you, now you can leave!"
Bibi Dong slapped the sofa, her voice growing colder.
"If sister doesn't believe me, I can try it myself."
Qian Renjue didn't move his feet. He immediately lowered his head, opened the silk pouch, and took out one of the candies inside.
Although it was a waste of good stuff, Qian Renjue didn't hesitate.
As soon as the "Phantom Candy" entered his stomach, he felt as if a small furnace had ignited inside him, spreading warmth throughout his body.
Bibi Dong frowned, watching Qian Renjue put the mysterious 'golden cube' into his mouth. She was indifferent at first, but then her eyes widened in shock!
"How is this possible?!"
Bibi Dong quickly sat up straight, looking around. Qian Renjue's figure had truly disappeared before her eyes!
Or rather, he vanished from the room!
Qian Renjue stood still, delighted. Bibi Dong's exclamation told him that he had successfully turned invisible!
Looking at his mother, Qian Renjue smiled and quickly moved to the side. Just as Bibi Dong was about to stand up, he controlled the energy back into his stomach.
"Mom, I'm here!"
Qian Renjue reappeared beside the sofa, waving happily at Bibi Dong.
Bibi Dong suddenly turned around, disbelief in her eyes. She couldn't help but mutter:
"What on earth is going on?"
"Haha! Mom, guess where I'll appear next?"
With Qian Renjue's cheerful laughter, his figure disappeared again. Bibi Dong's eyes flickered. She ignored the way Qian Renjue addressed her and instead focused on trying to catch a glimpse of him.
"Mom, I'm here!"
Suddenly, Qian Renjue's voice rang out again. Bibi Dong noticed his figure reappearing in the corner of the room, only to vanish again soon after.
Qian Renjue's laughter filled the entire room.
"Mom, isn't that amazing?"
Qian Renjue's figure reappeared beside the sofa, looking at Bibi Dong with innocent eyes, hoping for some praise.
Bibi Dong stared at him in a daze. At that moment, she completely believed Qian Renjue's words. But where did this child get such a thing?
As Qian Renjue's figure disappeared once more, Bibi Dong frowned slightly and began to ponder. Her gaze lowered for a moment, and she noticed something odd. How did a pair of small shoes appear at the foot of the sofa?
In the next instant, Bibi Dong's pupils contracted, and her entire body tensed up.
"Mom~"
A sweet, soft voice echoed in her ear, accompanied by a warm, milky breath brushing against her cheek.
Qian Renjue, without her noticing, had already stepped onto the sofa. Hugging her neck, he whispered softly into her ear:
"Mom, I really wasn't lying."
Feeling Bibi Dong's stiff body, Qian Renjue mustered his courage. He leaned forward slightly, and as Bibi Dong turned her head, he kissed her cheek.
Cold yet soft, Bibi Dong's purple eyes trembled violently. Half of her body felt as if it was being roasted by a sudden warmth, turning numb in an instant.
Her cheeks flushed red. The warmth beside her made Bibi Dong tremble as she raised her hand, wanting to embrace it. Her slender fingers gently rested on Qian Renjue's small body.
"Hehe, Mom!"
Noticing Bibi Dong's embrace, Qian Renjue smiled, his eyes curving into a crescent shape as his face lit up with happiness. He hugged Bibi Dong tightly, rubbing his tender face against hers.
The sudden closeness snapped Bibi Dong back to her senses, her eyes filled with panic.
"Get off!"
With a delicate shout, Bibi Dong's hand on Qian Renjue suddenly changed course and gave him a strong push.
"Ah! Mom!"
Caught off guard, Qian Renjue stumbled backward and fell to the ground with a thud.
"Bang!"
A dull thud was followed by Qian Renjue's wails.
"Oww~"
"Renjue!"
Bibi Dong cried out in alarm, quickly standing up, her expression more panicked than before. She hurried to the side of the sofa.
Seeing Qian Renjue clutching his head and rolling on the ground, Bibi Dong quickly squatted down and held him, frantically touching his face and head.
Her fingers brushed against blood, causing Bibi Dong's face to turn pale with fright. In a panic, she urgently called out:
"Renjue, don't move! Let me see, let Mom see!"
Her voice grew louder and more anxious. Qian Renjue, curled up in Bibi Dong's arms, tears welling in the corners of his eyes, clenched his teeth as he endured the pain.
Only after the worst of the pain subsided did his tense body relax. Bibi Dong quickly removed Qian Renjue's hands, her eyes red as she carefully examined him.
A bump had formed on the right side of his forehead, with blood seeping out. When her fingertips touched it, Qian Renjue winced, letting out a pained whimper.
"Oww~"
Bibi Dong's suspended, trembling heart finally began to calm down.
Qian Renjue wiped away the tears at the corners of his eyes, forcing a smile.
"Mom, I'm okay. It doesn't hurt anymore."
Then, Qian Renjue took out the silk pouch from earlier and handed it to Bibi Dong.
"Mom, this is the gift I wanted to give you."
Qian Renjue's face beamed with a smile. He had heard Bibi Dong call him "Renjue" earlier.
Looking at the smiling face in front of her, Bibi Dong felt as if something was stuck in her throat. It was painful, and she couldn't make a sound.
"Mom..."
Qian Renjue called out again. Bibi Dong bit her lip and said nothing, taking the silk pouch from him and putting it away.
Qian Renjue's face blossomed into another bright smile, so warm that Bibi Dong couldn't bear to look directly at him. She stood up and walked toward the cabinet.
Her voice carried a bit more warmth.
"Lie down, I'll find some medicine for you."
"Mm!"
Qian Renjue nodded eagerly, suddenly feeling a bit of pain and dizziness in his head.
Lying on the ground, he quietly watched Bibi Dong's figure.
Qian Renjue immediately felt that eating that "Phantom Candy" was well worth it.
Thinking of this, everything went black.
