#97 - The most important lesson for the mentor
Bibi Dong looked at Qian Renjue adoringly.
"Mom is just giving a suggestion, if you like raising it, then raise it."
"I know."
Qian Renjue nodded.
He bent down and placed the small dish of food in front of the Soft Bone Rabbit.
"Eat, tell me if you need more."
"Squeak!"
The Soft Bone Rabbit jumped up, responded, and began to enjoy the food as if no one else was around.
Hu Liena stared unblinkingly at Qian Renjue's back.
Qian Renjue straightened up and said with a smile, "Mom, let's start eating too."
"I already served you," Bibi Dong said with a smile, handing the hot soup to Qian Renjue.
"Thank you, Mom."
Qian Renjue thanked her gently and pecked Bibi Dong's face awkwardly.
"Mmm."
Bibi Dong's face showed even more joy, it seemed Qian Renjue had taken her words to heart and become more aware.
The Soft Bone Rabbit under the table suddenly raised its head, looking at the affectionate mother and son.
It couldn't help but think of its own mother.
Sadness flowed in its crimson eyes.
(Waa~! Mom, Xiao Wu misses you so much~ And also Da Ming, Er Ming...)
"Nana, this is yours."
"Thank you, Teacher."
Hu Liena was extremely obedient, carefully accepting the small bowl Bibi Dong handed over.
A smile that couldn't be concealed was on her face.
"Oh right, Jue."
Bibi Dong happily fed him and then thought of something else.
She instructed, "Your elder sister is about to leave, and Mom won't have much free time. Usually, let Nana keep you company, and you can also teach Nana on Mom's behalf."
"Okay, I understand."
Qian Renjue was stunned for a moment, then agreed with a smile.
Even if Bibi Dong didn't say it, Qian Renjue was planning to start a special session to teach Hu Liena properly.
Bibi Dong patiently instructed:
"When that time comes... you can't bully her."
"I won't, Mom."
Qian Renjue rolled his eyes; he wouldn't do such a thing.
"Pfft."
Bibi Dong chuckled.
Of course, she knew that with Qian Renjue's personality, he would basically not bully Hu Liena.
But he would grow up sooner or later.
Sooner or later, there would be a day when he became interested in girls.
Without explaining further, Bibi Dong looked at Hu Liena again.
"And Nana, from now on, follow your senior brother's learning, and respect him as you would respect a teacher, understand? He is not only your senior brother but also the Holy Son."
"Yes, Nana will be obedient!"
Hu Liena released the rim of the bowl she was biting, nodded heavily, and replied sweetly.
Bibi Dong nodded slightly, then looked at Qian Renjue.
"Jue, after your elder sister leaves, move over and live with Mom, okay?"
"Of course."
Qian Renjue nodded with a smile.
It just so happened that as the Holy Son, his residence was a bit far from the Papal Hall.
"That's good."
Bibi Dong chuckled softly, a slight flush on her face.
"Teacher, where will Nana live?"
Hu Liena suddenly raised her hand, asking timidly, her eyes filled with anticipation.
"..."
Bibi Dong pondered for a moment, then said with a smile:
"Nana is still young, so naturally she can live here as well, which will also make it convenient for the teacher to guide her."
"Yes, yes. Thank you, Teacher."
Hu Liena was overjoyed and nodded excitedly.
Then she thought of her elder brother, Xie Yue.
She said in a low voice, "Teacher, can Nana go to the Spirit Hall Academy this afternoon?"
"Yes, I'll have someone take you there."
Bibi Dong nodded slightly.
"Thank you, Teacher."
...
Time passed.
In the blink of an eye, it was the next day.
The morning sun slowly rose.
On the steps leading to the top of the mountain, Qian Renjue, yawning, held the hand of a little girl.
Orange short hair, delicate face.
Her face was filled with a smile, following closely behind Qian Renjue.
Even if Qian Renjue ignored her.
She was still extremely happy.
On Qian Renjue's shoulder, there was also a pink rabbit lying quietly.
The Soft Bone Rabbit did not run away last night.
But with Qian Renxue gone, Qian Renjue still didn't sleep well.
He got up early to go down the mountain to pick up Hu Liena.
He was even so sleepy that he squinted his eyes.
"Ah—"
Qian Renjue lazily yawned.
"Nana, we're almost there, hold on a little longer."
"Senior Brother, Nana is not tired."
Hu Liena's voice was clear and full of joy.
The Soft Bone Rabbit on her shoulder raised its eyes and looked at Qian Renjue with contempt.
It was clear that he himself was about to give up.
Stupid human!
After a short quarter of an hour, Qian Renjue took Hu Liena back to his little nest.
Turning his head, he instructed:
"Nana, find a place to sit down first. Senior Brother will go wash his face to wake up."
"Yes."
Hu Liena nodded obediently.
"So good."
Qian Renjue raised his hand and rubbed her beautiful hair.
Hu Liena's face was hot, suppressing the urge to rub against him.
She gently shook her head, absorbing the warmth of his palm.
Pfft!
Just as Qian Renjue was about to enter the bathroom.
The Soft Bone Rabbit immediately jumped down; it had a shadow of going into the bathroom with Qian Renjue.
Last night, Qian Renjue rubbed it all over again.
Listening to the sound of water in the bathroom,
Hu Liena stood in the room, looking around.
The first thing that caught her eye was the big bed and the big sofa.
And the glass closet with many dresses hanging in it.
Hu Liena was slightly stunned.
She soon remembered the elder sister who didn't like her very much at the beginning.
Looking down at her old clothes and shoes.
She immediately felt a little embarrassed.
She tiptoed to the coffee table and sat on a small chair.
Looking at the rabbit eating an apple on the coffee table.
She was attracted by the painting hanging on the wall.
There were three figures on it that she was relatively familiar with.
Teacher, Senior Brother, that elder sister, and two blonde men she had never seen before.
"Is that person Senior Brother's father?"
Hu Liena curiously wanted to step forward to see more clearly.
Before she could get up,
Qian Renjue had already walked out of the bathroom.
With some water droplets on his face and some wet hair, he asked Hu Liena:
"Nana, are you full? There are snacks here."
"Thank you, Senior Brother, Nana is already full."
Hu Liena immediately sat up straight, looking straight ahead, not daring to move around.
Qian Renjue chuckled.
"Okay, if you want to eat, just come over here to get it yourself."
"Yes, Nana understands."
Hu Liena nodded seriously.
"Wait a little longer."
Qian Renjue gently rubbed Hu Liena's head and then stepped forward to the corner of the room.
There was only a bell hanging on the wall.
Qian Renjue faced the direction of the Spirit Hall, lit incense, and bowed three times.
Hu Liena looked at Qian Renjue, who was inserting incense, in confusion.
Senior Brother seemed a little unhappy?
"Okay, next is time for your lesson."
Before long, Qian Renjue was sitting on the sofa in front of Hu Liena.
"This morning... Senior Brother will teach you the first lesson! And also the most important lesson!"
"You must listen carefully and remember it forever!"
Qian Renjue's face was solemn, and his voice was serious, completely without the gentleness he had before.
I wish you all a happy life!
