Gu Lingyu glanced at Shen Wuqiu.
Shen Wuqiu, preoccupied with worry for her daughter, was also impatient with her, "Hurry up and tell me."
Gu Lingyu hesitated before saying, "My little brother is holding me..."
Upon hearing this, Mr. Shen, unable to contain himself any longer, cursed, "What utter nonsense..."
Shen Wujun, who followed him upstairs, looked at the kitten that was scratching at him and refusing to let go with its claws with a complicated expression.
At the same time, Shen Wuqiu also saw the pure white kitten in Shen Wujun's arms...
The kitten saw her too and immediately meowed happily at her.
The babyish meows were so loud that even Daddy Shen couldn't help but look over.
The atmosphere suddenly became very strange.
After a long silence of several tens of seconds.
Shen Wujun carefully lifted the kitten in his arms into the air. "I didn't hold Sanmao... this is a kitten..."
Gu Lingyu glanced at Shen Wuqiu secretly, licked her lips a few times, but still didn't say anything.
Mr. Shen, however, began to fly into a rage at her, "Gu Lingyu, how can you still be in the mood for jokes? Don't you have any sense of responsibility as a mother at all...?"
Gu Lingyu's father-in-law roared but dared not be angry or speak, and listened to his scolding with his head hanging down.
After cursing until his throat was dry, just as Shen's father was about to catch his breath, Shen Wuqiu slowly spoke up: "Dad, Lingyu wasn't joking with you. Wujun is indeed holding Sanmao in his arms."
The anger that Mr. Shen had been suppressing suddenly flared up again: "Even if the child's name is Sanmao, he really will be covered in hair..."
Shen Wuqiu decided to cut to the chase quickly, "It's not just Sanmao, Da Mao, Er Mao, and Simao, they are not ordinary people either."
Mr. Shen, completely unaware of the unusual nature of the situation, was still lecturing them: "My granddaughters are certainly not ordinary people; they will definitely be..."
Forget it, let's just be blunt.
Shen Wuqiu bluntly stated, "They are not human."
The air was still for a few seconds.
Mr. Shen looked at Shen Wujun and asked him, "What did you hear your sister say just now?"
Shen Wujun's heart was in turmoil as he stared blankly at the kitten in his arms: "My sister said that my niece is not human."
"Heh..." Mr. Shen sneered, "I think your sister went crazy after having a child. If the child she gave birth to wasn't human, what was it?"
Shen Wuqiu had a bit of a headache. She looked at Gu Lingyu and, in a fit of desperation, said, "You tell me."
Gu Lingyu: "Tell the truth?"
Shen Wuqiu glared at her.
Gu Lingyu immediately said, "Dad, although the children have the blood of Qiuqiu's human race, their true forms belong to our spirit cat race, so they can't really be considered human."
"..." What the hell is this?! Dad slapped her on the forehead. "I think you're not human..."
"I am indeed not human."
Mr. Shen: "..."
Chapter 91 Daughter
—You are not human.
Although Mr. Shen was not exactly a refined person, this was still a very rude and offensive remark to him.
After he finished yelling, he felt a little guilty, thinking he had gone too far.
Who knows...
It feels like you're throwing a powerful punch, worried that you'll cripple your opponent, only to find out they're just a ball of cotton.
It had no destructive power whatsoever; instead, the force of the rebound hurt him.
It's easy to imagine how frustrated Mr. Shen was.
Unable to do anything with her, Mr. Shen had no choice but to scold his own daughter again: "I really don't know what you're thinking. Look at your taste..."
“I know you don’t want to believe it.” Shen Wuqiu understood what her father meant. He simply thought that the cat was deliberately saying something annoying and talking back to him. She took a breath and then said in one go, “But Lingyu didn’t talk back to you on purpose. She is definitely not human.”
"Huh? What is that?" Mr. Shen understood, but he just couldn't comprehend it, or rather, he simply couldn't accept the statement.
There's no better time than the day you choose.
Shen Wuqiu glanced at Gu Lingyu and said, "Tell my dad what kind of person you are."
Gu Lingyu glanced at her, then at her father, and out of the corner of her eye, she saw her brother-in-law standing there holding Sanmao, looking lost and confused. She felt a little embarrassed, but still spoke softly, "Dad, actually, I'm also your daughter, Wangcai."
This sentence is like a bolt of lightning. At first, the flash of lightning "whoosh"ed past overhead, and you were slowly thinking, "It's going to rain again," when you suddenly realized that the thunderbolt that followed was aimed at you.
Mr. Shen lost his composure, but on the surface he still stared at her with wide eyes.
Gu Lingyu thought she had spoken too softly and her father-in-law hadn't heard her clearly, so she thoughtfully raised her voice and said again, "Dad, actually I am your daughter Wangcai."
One thunderbolt wasn't enough; two more were needed.
Mr. Shen could no longer bear it, and his body trembled slightly.
“Dad…” Gu Lingyu quickly stepped forward, wanting to help him.
As a result, the moment his hand touched his father-in-law's sleeve, the other man slapped it away, looking at him with disgust as if he were something dirty.
However, Gu Lingyu was a kind-hearted and simple-minded person, so she didn't feel very hurt. She silently withdrew her hand and then verbally comforted him, "Please don't get excited. I didn't turn into Wangcai in front of you because I was afraid you couldn't handle it."
"..." Mr. Shen was so angry that he almost had a heart attack, and he turned to go downstairs.
"Dad, slow down." Gu Lingyu followed closely behind.
Father Shen gritted his teeth: "You just stand here and don't move. I'm going to call Lady Wang right now and have her perform a ritual to get rid of you."
Upon hearing this, Shen Wuqiu continued to stab her father in the back: "I'm afraid the Empress Wang is no good. She's probably just someone who will bow down and worship people."
Mr. Shen almost choked on his breath, instinctively bracing himself against the railing: "You...so you were bewitched by a monster..."
Gu Lingyu quickly defended herself: "Dad, although I'm not human, I'm really not a demon..."
"Shut up first." Mr. Shen gritted his teeth. In fact, he was not as angry as he appeared. Instead, he was experiencing a complex mix of emotions. My son-in-law is not a man, and to make matters worse, he is not even human.
"Oh." Gu Lingyu looked embarrassed, licked her lips, and noticed her brother-in-law looking at her strangely out of the corner of her eye. She emphasized again, "I'm really not a demon, I'm an ancient divine beast."
Compared to his father's breakdown, Shen Wujun showed more excitement and curiosity. He held back for a long time, but finally couldn't help but ask, "No, can people really turn into cats? No, can cats really turn into people?"
Seeing his curious little expression, Gu Lingyu immediately perked up, "Of course."
Shen Wujun: "Then transform into one for me to see."
Gu Lingyu glanced at her father-in-law, and Shen Wujun understood, immediately freeing one hand to tightly embrace his father's shoulder, "Change it."
Mr. Shen: "..."
Gu Lingyu was a little embarrassed and hesitated for a few seconds. Then a blinding white light flashed. Shen Wujun and Shen's father subconsciously shielded their eyes. When they opened their eyes again, the person who had been standing in the same place had turned into a white cat standing on the ground.
"Holy crap...didn't they say that after the founding of the People's Republic of China, spirits were no longer allowed?" Shen Wujun was bursting with excitement. He wanted to run over and take a closer look, but as soon as he let go, he remembered his old father. He turned his head and glanced at his father, who had a grim face and was not saying a word. His excitement turned into a little worry: "Dad, are you alright?"
Of course, this worry was quickly replaced by excitement, because he then patted his father on the shoulder and said, "No, don't you think it's amazing?"
Father Shen was better able to handle it than he had imagined. He thought he couldn't accept it, but when he saw the pretty little girl turn into a cat right in front of him, he was surprisingly calm. At that moment, he didn't think about anything else, but rather a sense of enlightenment—no wonder Wangcai and Lingyu had never appeared at the same time.
However, Mr. Shen still felt awkward and inexplicably didn't want everyone to know his true thoughts at that moment.
So he kept his face stern and expressionless.
Gu Lingyu walked towards him, squatted down in front of him, and meowed.
Compared to Gu Lingyu's human appearance, Father Shen was always more satisfied with Wangcai's cat-like appearance. Wangcai had shiny fur, round, deep blue eyes, and a pink nose. He looked clean and adorable, and his "meow" was incredibly cute.
Mr. Shen restrained himself from touching her, and instead put on a cold face, feigning disgust, and said, "Don't block my way."
"Meow~~" Gu Miaomiao was extremely hurt.
A fleeting look of reluctance crossed Mr. Shen's eyes, but he said nothing and went downstairs with a cold face.
Shen Wuqiu: "Dad..."
Mr. Shen didn't hesitate for a moment before striding downstairs.
Shen*straight man*Wu Jun shrugged: "Sis, don't worry. Look at how powerful Dad is walking. He's definitely fine."
After saying that, he squatted down excitedly and looked at Gu Miaomiao: "I saw on TV that monsters are really powerful. Can you perform one for me?"
"..." If it weren't for the fact that this person was her brother-in-law, Gu Miaomiao would have immediately turned hostile.
Another flash of white light, and Gu Lingyu stood before him in human form, emphasizing, "I am not a demon!"
Shen Wujun said indifferently: "Hey, divine beasts and demons are pretty much the same."
"They're worlds apart." Gu Lingyu was so angry she wanted to scratch him. "A demon can't transform into the appearance of a human."
Shen Wujun nodded: "It seems that it's true that people are not allowed to become spirits after the founding of the People's Republic of China."
"..." They were talking at cross purposes. Gu Lingyu didn't want to talk to him and simply snatched the Sanmao from his hand.
"..." Shen Wujun didn't know what he had said wrong, but he didn't care at the moment. He moved closer to Shen Wuqiu and glanced into the room: "Sister, let me see the other nieces."
Shen Wuqiu patted her head lightly, "What are you doing? Go check on Dad."
Shen Wujun touched his head, not worried at all: "He's just getting old and has trouble digesting. He'll be fine in a bit. Let me check if his other nieces are also white."
"That's not necessarily true."
As soon as he finished speaking, Daiying and Gu Junshan came out of their room carrying Simao. Simao was the most well-behaved, but he had been having diarrhea for the past few days, sometimes several times a night. They were worried that Shen Wuqiu wouldn't be able to sleep well at night, so the couple had been taking care of him while he slept these past few days.
The couple had heard the commotion. They hesitated for a moment, but decided to let their daughter handle it, so they didn't come out to join in. Only after Mr. Chen left did they bring Simao out.
Shen Wujun, who had been immersed in the excitement of "my brother-in-law is not human", saw the couple and his excitement inexplicably calmed down. He was stunned for a moment and looked at them: "Uncle Gu and Aunt Gu, you are not human either... I mean, are you also divine beasts or something?"
“Young people are just more open to new things,” Dai Ying said with a smile, praising him and then placing the four coins she was holding into his arms.
Shen Wujun stared at Simao in his arms for a moment, then looked at the couple. "Why isn't Simao turning into a cat?"
Daiying raised an eyebrow. "Touch her forehead."
Shen Wujun found it somewhat magical and immediately wanted to try it out, but when he raised his hand, he was a little apprehensive. He carefully poked at the air several times before finally reverently touching Si Mao's forehead.
