“Yeah.” Ye Qin nodded. “On this continent, the Dragon Clan only exists in legends.”
Huang Quan smiled, not delving further into the topic.
“Okay, I’m going to eat.” While Huang Quan and Ye Qin were chatting, the baby had already reached for the box.
Both Ye Qin and Huang Quan stopped, eyeing the child.
Huang Quan pondered whether the baby intended to swallow everything in one gulp as before or if she was cautious about consuming things in the presence of others. Meanwhile, Ye Qin was curious about the reason behind the baby’s desire to eat these items.
Dragons were often associated with avarice for treasures, and the legends told of them swallowing their favorite things into their magical bellies, creating a space to hoard their treasures. Although these were just myths, Ye Qin couldn’t help but scrutinize the baby more closely.
Baby noticed both of them observing her and teased, “If you look at me like this, I will get shy.”
Huang Quan interjected, “If you can’t talk nicely, then don’t eat.”
Baby immediately adjusted her demeanor, becoming serious as if she hadn’t displayed a shy smile moments ago. She declared, “You can look as much as you like. I want to eat.”
With that, Baby selected a pearl from the box and casually tossed it into her mouth.
Huang Quan grasped the situation. The baby was still willing to play the part of being shy when others were around. Among the treasures in the box were pearls, each the size of a baby’s fist. Although not overly large, they were certainly bigger than the baby’s mouth. How, then, did she manage to swallow one whole earlier?
“She is a dragon,” Ye Qin remarked, observing closely.
Huang Quan, sensing Ye Qin’s curiosity, explained with a smile, “She can transform into a dragon at any time and control changes in her body.”
Ye Qin looked at Huang Quan, seeking clarification. “So, she can control the changes in her mouth?”
“Yes,” Huang Quan affirmed. “That’s correct.”
“It makes you laugh.” Baby looked at Ye Qin with a smile, then pulled the box in front of her, sat down next to Huang Quan, and began to eat.
“Don’t worry about me. I’m busy. I want to eat for a while.” After the baby spoke, she focused on eating.
“Let’s get busy.” Huang Quan continued to use the life energy to make the medicinal materials grow, while Ye Qin assisted in organizing them.
The baby sat aside, watching the two while enjoying his meal.
Though she disliked Quanquan’s attention being on others, she couldn’t deny that Ye Qin was captivating.
Too beautiful!
How could someone be so good-looking?
After gazing at Ye Qin’s face for a while, the baby looked away, neither envious nor jealous. He acknowledged that her own features were also quite appealing. Many people described her as delicate and cute, like a little princess. She was confident that as she grew older, she would surpass even Ye Qin in appearance.
With this self-assured demeanor, the baby finished the contents of the box.
Huang Quan, thinking about the money spent, felt a pang of regret. However, she didn’t show it in front of the baby. “You’re not in good health. Go back and rest after eating.”
“Okay.” The baby stood up, prepared to return to the Beast Pet Space, and added, “Quanquan, next time I wake up, I want to eat more.”
This time, she hadn’t eaten enough, but it was understandable. Quanquan had just arrived in this world, and it was normal not to have money for food.
As Huang Quan heard this, the corner of her mouth twitched. Just as she was about to say something, Baby suddenly moved and hid behind her. “Someone is coming.”
