Chapter 444: Chen Yike Is in Danger!

Summer passed and autumn came. The weather was gradually turning slightly cold.
It started to drizzle outside the window. The smell of rain mixed with the smell of soil and fruits, it slowly floated into the Chen Manor.
“Elder Tree, 1 still want to eat the Sage Fruit!”
In the hall, Chen Yike drooled as she looked at the fruit on the Sage Tree and shouted.
After entering late autumn, the fruits on the Sage Tree were all ripe. The fruit fragrance that constantly wafted over made her unable to stop. She could not calm down at all.
It was so exaggerated that even when she slept, she would sleepwalk under the tree and drool as she looked at the fruit.
“Second Miss, you can’t eat anymore. Eating too much of this Sage Fruit will affect the lust between men and women. It will make you a hairless nun.”
“Eating one will affect you for at least 10 days. Eating three will affect you for a month.”
“You don’t want to be a nun, do you?”
The Sage Tree deliberately exaggerated the side effects of the Sage Fruit and used a feminine tone to scare Chen Yike under the tree.
Although plants did not have a gender, as a demon plant, its characteristic was more feminine.
The voice was female, and the tone was also feminine.
If it could transform one day, it would most likely be a knowledgeable tree fairy.
And it would boot-lick the masters at home every day.
“Don’t be afraid. I don’t care. If 1 become a nun, I’ll just be a nun. Elder Tree, quickly let me eat the fruit!”
Chen Yike did not forget her original intention. She had always adhered to the concept that eating was more important than anything else.
Facing such a little foodie, the Sage Tree was also in a difficult position. It could only mention the other party’s tigress mother and say:
“Second Miss, it’s not that I don’t want to give it to you. It’s just that Third Madam reminded me that I can only give you one every day.”
“Mother is fighting with Father in the room. They’re fighting fiercely. Elder Tree, if you secretly give me a fruit now, she won’t know.”
Chen Yike deliberately suppressed her voice and tried bewitching it.
The Sage Tree still looked troubled. Compared to pleasing the Second Miss, it was more afraid of offending the Third Madam.
After all, Third Madam Wen Zhiyun was fierce. She even dared to scold and hit the head of the family.
Just now, the Second Miss said that the Third Madam was fighting with the Old Master in the room. The fight was especially intense.
If not for the soundproof array, the sound of the fight would probably have spread out of the cave abode.
“Elder Tree, why are you so cowardly?!”
Seeing that the Sage Tree refused to give the fruit to eat, Chen Yike was unhappy and her face fell.
The Sage Tree was numb. It was in a dilemma.
Just as it was about to make a choice and curry favor with Chen Yike, Wen Zhiyun came out of the room after fighting with Chen An.
At a glance, his clothes were disheveled and his hair was a little messy. This battle was probably a little intense.
“Child, what do you want to do under the tree?”
Wen Zhiyun saw the silly daughter at a glance and walked towards her.
Chen Yike said guiltily, “W-What am I doing? I’m here to listen to Elder Tree’s lecture.”
Wen Zhiyun was only a little suspicious at first. Now that she heard from the silly daughter that she was here to listen to Elder Tree’s lecture, she immediately confirmed that this child was asking the Sage Tree for fruits.
After all, how could a child like the silly daughter take the initiative to come to class?
She really didn’t even know how to lie. She was so simple-minded.
“Elder Tree, you can only give Second Miss one Sage Fruit a day, understand?”
Wen Zhiyun reminded the Sage Tree.
As for the silly daughter, she had already given up on reminding her.
Because it was useless to remind her.
Every time, this child would say, “Yes, yes, I know.” Then, behind her back, she would say, “What do I know?” Her main focus was on complying on the surface but disobeying on the inside.
“Third Madam, I know what to do. I definitely won’t let Second Miss eat too much.”
The Sage Tree vowed.
Wen Zhiyun snorted. “It’s best if that’s the case. Don’t be like this child who obeys me on the surface but opposes me on the inside every time.”
The Sage Tree replied, “Don’t worry, Third Madam. I’m loyal to you!”
While the two of them were talking, Chen Yike kept staring at the ripe Sage Fruit on the tree.
She looked to her heart’s content and her stomach was growling.
She wanted to eat, but she couldn’t. She was very pitiful, and it made one’s heart ache.
In the afternoon, the rain outside the window stopped.
The sun was shining brightly, the air was fresh, and the climate was very pleasant.
Chen An came out of Shen Qingyi’s room and walked into the study diagonally opposite. He found his eldest daughter, Chen Yuejian, who was reading a book.
Unknowingly, Chen Yuejian was almost nine years old. She was slowly transforming from a little girl to a young and lively girl.
At this moment, she was sitting quietly by the window reading. Her hair fluttered in the breeze, like a fairy from the nine heavens who had descended to the mortal world. She was unbelievably beautiful.
“Little Yuejian, what book are you reading?”
Chen An slowly walked towards his eldest daughter by the window and asked gently with a faint smile.
Chen Yuejian looked up at her father with a pair of clear beautiful eyes and a sweet smile.
“Father, I’m reading the book ‘My Father is an Immortal Master’.”
“My Father is the Immortal Master?”
‘Why did the title of this book sound like Long Aotian’s novel?’
‘It felt like “My District Head’s Father”.’
Chen An had no impression of this book. He asked curiously,
“Why don’t I remember buying such a book?”
“Father, you didn’t buy it. 1 borrowed it from Little Mahua.”
Chen Yuejian replied.
Little Mahua was a fox demon girl named Jiu Qianqian in the Fox Hall. Because she had many freckles on her face, everyone gave her the nickname Little Mahua.
Chen Yuejian usually followed her Mother Jiu to the Fox Hall to visit. After a while, she became good friends with Jiu Qianqian, who was about the same age..
