Thick and thin vines are woven into the shape of a house, dotted with colorful flowers, and surrounded by an endless sea of beautiful environment, nothing to complain about.
"Thank you for your concern, sir. We don't really need so many rooms. We can just live in one." Ran Ran nodded to the Flower Eater to express his gratitude.
Zhong Ning immediately said "Ah?" to show his confusion. Just as the flower eater was about to speak, Minister Gao immediately came forward holding Birch and pushed Zhong Ning behind him.
"That's right! The habit of our world is to be lively and bustling. It's comfortable when everyone is together!"
"Xiao Ning is still young, he doesn't understand."
The flower eater also found it hard to understand, "Won't it feel crowded with so many of you sleeping together?"
"Your Excellency, are you kidding me?" Minister Gao patted Birch's chubby body. "Such a spacious room, even more round and spacious than Birch, let alone the five of us, even five more can lie down!"
"Well, I respect the wishes of several guests, but you should at least have a separate room, you are my distinguished guest."
The flower eater had a look of anxiety in his eyes, and tried his best to persuade Ranran.
"Really, that's not necessary. I'm fine living with my friends." Ran Ran put away her smile and spoke calmly, and the Flower Eater gave up.
"Okay, the guest's wishes are the most important." He said this, but his expression was inevitably dissatisfied.
Ran Ran spoke directly, without any hesitation, "Sir, you are so persistent in letting me live alone, is there something wrong?"
"…Nothing, I just value you as a guest. Maybe…I will ask you to talk alone later?"
Ranran knew that what the flower eater wanted to talk about was definitely related to the terror cave.
Maybe there will be some clichéd lines like - please help me say hello to Lord Kongdong!
Ran Ran smirked, "No problem at all. I'll be waiting for you to come to me anytime, sir."
The flower eater was satisfied. "Then you guys take a good rest first. If you need anything, just call me through the ball."
Burch didn't react in Minister Gao's arms. He was stunned for several seconds before he realized that the Flower Eater was talking about him.
Ran Ran followed the flower eater and walked a few steps outside. "There is one more thing I need to ask of you, sir."
"Evil boy, please speak."
"As the god of this world, you should be able to sense the existence of every one of your subjects."
"It can be done, but it takes a lot of energy."
"Then there should be a way to track beings that are not originally from this world, such as the five of us."
The Flower Eater narrowed his eyes, "Evil Child, are you talking about the other five people who came to the Flower Eater world with you?"
"Yes, sir, can you find them?"
"of course can."
Ran Ran's eyes lit up, "Then I'll leave it to you, sir."
"No problem. No problem." The Flower Eater smiled. "I'll make this happen after we have a good chat tomorrow."
Ran Ran pretended to be very happy, "Thank you in advance, sir. I believe our chat tomorrow will be very pleasant."
The Flower Eater nodded and left, knowing that his happiness was entirely determined by Him.
As long as He felt unhappy, there was no need for Him to complete what He promised to Ranran.
Ran Ran turned around with a gloomy face, a cunning person who would not give in until he saw some benefits.
But she had a way to deal with it.
When Ran Ran returned to the vine house, he found Burch screaming, "Qi is finished, Qi is in big trouble! It's all your fault. You always call Qi Burch instead of calling him Qiuqiu like adults do. Qi didn't even realize that adults were calling him Qi!"
No one took it seriously. Minister Gao was even quite happy. No one could share Birch's joys and sorrows.
"How can we be blamed for this?" Birch twisted his body to protest. "Are you guys to blame? Should we blame the adults?"
Minister Gao clapped his hands fiercely, "That's absolutely right! It's Him that should be blamed!"
Looking down at Burch's dizzy black eyes, Minister Gao started his deceiving tactics again.
"Burch, think about what you call yourself?"
“Strange.”
"That's right! We all followed your lead and called you by your real name. The one who called you by the wrong name was the Flower Eater!"
"He was the one who ignored your real name and insisted on calling you Qiuqiu." Minister Gao's tone became more and more certain.
"I strongly feel that you have grown into your current shape because of what He called you to do."
Burch opened his eyes in confusion, "…Did the adults ruin Qi's beautiful appearance?"
"That's right!" Minister Gao's face turned red with excitement when he saw that his trick was successful. "That's right!"
Burch retreated into Minister Gao's arms and thought for a long time before speaking again.
“…But you should still call me Qiqiuqiu in front of adults from now on…”
Minister Gao felt as if he was watching a child go astray, "Why?"
Wasn't he just fooled me?
"The master is very domineering with things that belong to him. He does not allow others to touch them. If someone touches them, even if it is Qi, the master will turn against Qi."
Minister Gao seemed to be thinking about it. "Burch, what you want to say is that you are very possessive."
Burch nodded. "Yes, he has a strong desire. My Lord said before that I can eat anything in the sea of flowers. But once, I ate the flowers that my Lord prepared for dinner. My Lord became very scary and locked me up in Qinlan Lake."
"It was still the bottom floor! It was dark and cold there. Qi felt like he couldn't breathe and was in so much pain that he almost died. The adults let Qi out and asked him if he remembered his lesson."
Everyone was shocked. They had known about the cruelty of the Flower Eater, but they did not expect that He would be so ruthless to Birch, the only person by his side.
Burch's voice gradually became quieter, perhaps because he was frightened by the thought of the situation at that time.
"Of course Qi remembered it. Qi will never forget it, so Qi is speaking well of you now."
"You didn't call me Qiqiuqiu in front of the adults. The adults must be unhappy, but they just didn't show it."
"It was just like when the adults fished Qi out of Qinlan Lake and asked Qi very gently if he remembered the lesson. It was very gentle, but fake. Qi could feel that the adults were still very angry at that time."
Burch crawled out from Minister Gao's arms and looked at everyone with his small eyes.
"Although Qi doesn't know why the adults are still pretending to be gentle, you must remember that it is pretending to be gentle."
"When adults stop pretending, it's going to be scary!"
Burch finished speaking in a serious manner, but no one reacted. Only Minister Gao looked at him with a look of satisfaction, and even a tendency to burst into tears.
"What's wrong with you? Don't be so scared!"
Minister Gao stroked Birch's fur with his hand more vigorously, "I'm happy."
"Will there be sparkling beads in your eyes when you are happy? My Lord told Qi before that it happens when you are sad."
"Once, you dreamed of killing your loved ones, and when you woke up, sparkling beads fell from your eyes. Were you happy?"
Zhong Ning pouted angrily when he heard this, "Crocodile tears!"
Burch turned his head curiously, "What is a crocodile? The adults didn't tell me about it, and I didn't even dream about it just now."
Minister Gao touched Birch lovingly and said, "I am happy because Birch is a good boy, and there is no crocodile in this world..."
"But Birch will see it later." (End of this chapter)
