Chapter 416: Chapter 416: Dou Dou and Aunt

"Aunt."

"What?"

"Why are you called Taozi (Peach)?"

"What’s wrong with Taozi?"

"Taozi has fuzz, I don’t like it."

"What do you like then?"

"Can’t you be called Pear, Apricot, Monkey, or Little Bunny?"

"Then why are you called Red Bean? Why not Green Bean, Soybean, or Funny Bean?"

"Haha, I like the name Funny Bean. You can call me Funny Bean, and I’ll call you Little Monkey."

"I’ll smack your butt and turn you into a little monkey with a red bottom."

Taozi bickered with Dou Dou while getting out of bed.

After returning from the beach, Taozi moved from the previous hotel to the one where Shen Siyuan was staying.

Dou Dou kept her company all night, but this little thing doesn’t need sleep, so she woke Taozi up early in the morning.

She’s really a love-hate relationship.

"Go play by yourself, I’m going to take a shower," Taozi said.

"I’ll help you scrub your back," Dou Dou said enthusiastically.

"No need. You’re so short, even jumping couldn’t reach my shoulder," Taozi rolled her eyes.

"Then I’ll call Potato to help you," Dou Dou immediately said.

"What nonsense are you talking about? I’m a girl, he’s a boy, how can he help me scrub my back?" Taozi tried to explain in simple terms so Dou Dou would understand.

"What’s the big deal? Mom helps Dad scrub, and Potato also helps Sister Ruan scrub..."

"Oh, how do you know that?" Taozi leaned close to Dou Dou, curious.

"I saw it."

"What else did you see?"

"Kissing and hugging, all lovey-dovey."

"And what else, what else..."

"Nothing else. Dad, Mom, and Potato don’t let me see. They say I’m still a kid. Why are you asking this?"

"Nothing, just curious."

"→_→, do you want to be all lovey-dovey with Potato too?"

"Nonsense, your Potato already has Sister Ruan."

"Oh? What’s the harm in that? Isn’t it nice if everyone loves each other?" Dou Dou was quite puzzled.

"What if your dad found you a new mom, would you be okay with that?"

"She has to be a pretty Auntie," Dou Dou immediately said.

"You’d be okay with it?" Taozi looked surprised.

"Of course, then I’d have two moms," Dou Dou said with an innocent look.

Taozi: ...

"You should tell that to your dad, he’d be thrilled."

"Really?" Dou Dou was a bit excited.

"Of course, I promise," Taozi said.

"Hehe, I’ll tell him when I see him," Dou Dou said happily.

Taozi chuckled and walked into the bathroom. Dad might be happy, but who knows about Mom.

-----------------

Taozi soon came out of the bathroom and saw Dou Dou on her bed, head down and bottom up, trying to flip over.

Taozi sighed helplessly, saying to herself, "You can fly, why are you struggling to flip? Are you trying to evolve into Sun Monkey?"

She didn’t bother with her and picked up the hairdryer to dry her hair.

Just then, Dou Dou, hearing the commotion, immediately ran over.

"Aunt, where are you going later?"

"You’d have to ask your Brother Potato," Taozi said.

"Why ask him? Are you going out with him?" Dou Dou said.

"You talk too much."

"Hehe, my mom says that too."

"I’m not praising you."

"Go play elsewhere, don’t bother me."

"Humph, then I’ll go find Potato," Dou Dou huffed.

Just as Taozi was about to say more, she looked down to find the little thing had disappeared.

By then, Shen Siyuan was already up. Seeing Dou Dou run back, he casually asked, "Is your aunt up?"

"She’s up. She asked me to ask you where we’re playing today?"

"Play? Isn’t she going back today?" Shen Siyuan was a bit surprised.

"I don’t know. Brother Potato, where are we going today?"

"Of course, continue the road, complete our remaining journey," Shen Siyuan said.

They took the west route when they came out, and now, returning, they’re choosing the east route, circling the island. He’s also planning a stop back home.

"Oh, so you’re not playing with Aunt anymore?"

"What nonsense are you talking about."

"Then she’ll be really sad," Dou Dou said.

Shen Siyuan ignored her as he was brushing his teeth.

Dou Dou saw this and immediately ran back next door. She saw Taozi still packing and immediately appeared.

"Aunt?"

Taozi was startled, then exhaled and said, "What are you doing, appearing out of nowhere, scaring someone to death."

"Hehe, I asked Brother Potato, and he said he doesn’t want to play with you anymore."

"What?" Taozi was stunned, and then an indescribable feeling rose in her heart.

"What exactly did he say?"

"Brother Potato said, ’Why aren’t you going back? I don’t want to play with you anymore,’" Dou Dou said.

"Hmph, I don’t want to play with him either," Taozi said a bit angrily.

Then she looked at Dou Dou beside her and asked, "You’ll keep me company, right?"

"Nope," Dou Dou immediately said.

Taozi: ヽ(｀⌒´メ)ノ

"I’m going with Brother Potato on the road to practice. Sister Xiao Yue said Brother Potato is Tang Seng, Duoduo is Zhu Bajie, she’s Sha Monk. And I’m the most awesome Sun Monkey! Ah, they can’t leave me, or they’d get caught by demons..."

"Demons are so fierce, big mouths snapping, ’aww, aww,’ eating Brother Potato and the others whole."

While saying this, she craned her neck and howled at the sky, like she was a big demon.

"→_→, I think you’re more like Zhu Bajie, aren’t you?"

"Huh? How did you know?"

Dou Dou was shocked, then realized she slipped and quickly covered her mouth.

At this point, Taozi knew Dou Dou was probably making it up. Shen Siyuan was likely preparing to depart today and continue his journey.

Since Shen Siyuan was planning to leave, staying longer didn’t make much sense, so she started packing, preparing to head back to Bin Hai today as well.

"Are you packing to run away?"

"Run? Am I a thief or a robber? I’m packing to go home," Taozi retorted.

DouDou understood, but then immediately called out, "Aunt."

"What now?"

"You should be a thief. You’re not strong enough to be a robber; you’d get beaten to death."

"Well, thanks a lot."

"You’re welcome."

Taozi was too mad to speak. It’s a good thing she doesn’t have high blood pressure, otherwise, she would’ve had an attack from anger.

Meanwhile, in another room, Shen Siyuan was also packing.

But he had very little to pack, just toiletries, and it was easy for him to store them in his space.

But just then, his phone rang. Assuming it was Ruan Hongzhuang, he picked it up to see it was Zhong Xiaonan.

"Sun Xinghai is dead," Zhong Xiaonan said.

PS: That’s all~, and also asking for a monthly ticket~

[Dou Dou, Duoduo, and Xiao Yue wish everyone a Happy New Year and all the best~]
