My Crown Prince Consort Is a Firecracker! - Chapter 2965

2965 I Respect Your Decision
In the next moment, the little monk began to make a commotion and was ready to emerge.

As the young monk emerged, he rushed over to the chubby boy without a word, extending his gentle, small hands to caress the boy’s head. “Amitabha,” he said.

“Benefactor, I know you quite well,” he continued, his words directed at the chubby child.

Qiao Mu watched with a bemused expression.

“You’ve resorted to such foolish actions because of your loneliness,” the little chubby boy, clad only in a red undergarment, whimpered a couple of times. Then, he stopped crying and gazed up at the little monk, whose face radiated benevolence, surrounded by an ethereal Buddhist aura.

“Little Master!” The chubby child exclaimed, throwing himself into the arms of the young monk.

The little monk sighed and spoke with a copper coin in his mouth, “The world is empty and filled with hardships, and all actions are ever-changing. The past vanishes like smoke, and we must always look to the future! Little Benefactor, do not dwell in sorrow.”

Qiao Mu pressed a hand to her throbbing temple, then reached out to place the little monk beneath the tree. Next, she brought the chubby child over and settled him under the same tree.

“I implore you, please don’t cry!” Qiao Mu gently removed Qiuqiu from her arm and positioned it on the ground. She regarded Little Four with a serious expression. “Viscount Four, you recognized us the moment you emerged from the testing monument, didn’t you?”

The fragment quivered in fear and timidly nodded in response.

The surrounding children, however, refused to accept this situation. One by one, they called out to their King. They were ready to rebel and confront Her Excellency Lady Qiaoqiao. They couldn’t allow their King to bow down and admit defeat in front of a woman. A fight was imminent!

Qiao Mu cast an exasperated glance at the dozen or so bear cubs swarming around her. She couldn’t bring herself to harm them, and scolding them seemed pointless. So, she decided to take control of the situation by sprinkling a handful of sleeping powder over them.

“Dong, dong, dong, dong, dong!” After the children had one round of play, the world finally fell silent.

Qiao Mu breathed a deep sigh of relief.

However, the fragment nervously looked at the children and others and then turned to the young lady with a sense of concern. “Miss, Miss, what did you do to them?”

Qiao Mu knew her limits. The dosage of the sleeping powder was extremely mild and would only put these children to sleep for a maximum of 15 minutes. It wouldn’t harm them in any way.

Therefore, if she had any plans, she needed to act within those fifteen minutes. Otherwise, she’d have another headache.

“Little Four, you must listen to me now. Go back to Paradise Planet with Qiuqiu immediately.”

Seeing the chubby child about to burst into tears again, Qiao Mu pinched her temples with a growing headache. “I will respect your choice no matter what you decide. Since you’ve developed intelligence, you must have your own thoughts.”

“But you must consider this carefully.” Qiao Mu gently patted the child’s head. “If you don’t return to your main body, you’ll remain like this forever and won’t be able to grow up.”

In the case of Qiuqiu, it was only missing a small fragment, so its future growth might be slower. However, for this tree seed fragment…

It was destined to be stuck in this child-like form for a thousand years, even ten thousand years, without any chance of maturing.

Fragment Four sobbed pitifully. “I-I didn’t think about it. No, I won’t go back. I just want to play, play for a while.”

Little Four had been accidentally sealed inside the dreadful test tablet for far too long. It was desperate to be free.
