" Oh yes!" Madam Cai turned to look at Mo Qiang and the rest just as everyone thought that she would get angry. " I am so sorry, I may have sent my forgetful husband, he easily gets distracted with a lot of things which is why he might have gotten lost in the house." She then turned to another one of her husbands and said, " Please look for him and bring me the rewards as well as my monitor."
She then turned to look at Mo Qiang and then said, " I was taking a bath when you came which is why I rushed out without wearing…. the monitor."
" Thank goodness she said monitor and not something else," said Mo Xifeng. She was quite surprised by Madam Cai's personality.
Mo Qiang's lips twitched as she looked at Cai Wu who had her foot stomped on Madam Cai's left foot and did not say anything. She had a very good idea why Madam Cai took a long pause just now.
" I understand, Madam," the mer with long silver hair and blue eyes bowed his head and then walked inside the house. The one who went to look for the rewards and monitor must have really gotten lost because when he returned he was covered in mud and holding a box which was holding a big worm that was spitting through a muzzle.
Madam Cai looked at the mer who was covered in mud and then said lightly, " My… Little Mimi you went to hunt worms again? I know that you are enthusiastic about your collections but you cannot forget what you are doing."
" Sorry, I was sort of excited upon seeing this new worm that was roaming in our garden, Madam," replied Xiao Mimi as he turned to look at his wife and then brought the box to show it to Madam Cai. " I was thinking of burying this worm along with Master Qiao, I think he will be quite happy with this pet, what do you say Mistress? This worm is known for spitting venom that can melt even titanium 98!"
Madam Cai and Cai Wu: "…"
Madam Cai smiled at Xiao Mimi politely before she said, "It's all right, Mimi. Just leave the worm for yourself. I believe that he will be happy if you keep this worm by your side."
" Is that so?" Xiao Mimi looked at the worm in the small box and then nodded before saying, " Then I will call this one Worm two hundred and twenty-two."
" Two hundred and twenty-two?" Mo Qiang mused as she turned to look at headmistress Cai who sighed and then said with some slight annoyance, " There is a room which is filled with worms. Daddy Mimi is quite enthusiastic about his research on worms which is why he has collected a lot of worms and can no longer name them so he names them with numbers."
Mo Qiang and Mo Xifeng: "…"
Mo Qiang did not say anything but for some reason, she felt Mo Xifeng sneak close to her. She turned to look at Mo Xifeng whose face was pale and already had a very good idea why this girl was sticking close to her.
