~17 min read 3,241 words

"Dad, long time no see."
Next to him, William was about to convince Jackie Chan when he was suddenly interrupted by his father. He was also a little embarrassed and raised his hand to say hello to his father.
"It's William. I haven't seen you for many years. What's the matter with coming over to see Aaron?"
The father held the paper bag in his hand, leaned over and looked at William carefully, pushed up his old glasses, and then smiled and asked.
Facing his father, William seemed a little embarrassed.
Hearing his father's question, William hurriedly said: "I have research and need Jack's help. We have to go to an ancient tomb in the south of Disha. Only Jack can help me."
"Dad, I still have a lot of work to do, and I don't really want to help with this matter. You know me, I only do research, not tomb robbing."
Jackie Chan, who was almost moved by the love card just now, saw his father coming up and reaffirmed his thoughts, so he refused again.
Hearing Jackie Chan continue, William quickly looked at his father, wanting to ask his father to help intercede.
Dad waved his hand, interrupting William's intention to speak, and continued: "Oh, you guys are talking about this and that. Dad doesn't want to hear so much, so come one by one."
As he said that, his father suddenly pointed to Tang Mu aside and said to Jackie Chan: "This cat you raised is very good. It does more things than a cat. Originally, I was very dissatisfied with your performance today. Looking at this cat For the cat's sake, I won't argue with you for now."
"I, I! It! It!"
Jackie Chan pointed at himself, and then at Tom Mu at his father's feet, and suddenly he stuttered.
He wanted to explain that he didn't have a cat.
But Jackie Chan also knew his father's character very well and knew that it would be useless to talk about it.
After dancing for the last time, he could only sigh dejectedly and lower his head silently.
The head just lowered and was knocked again by daddy.
Jackie Chan felt the pain, raised his head with an "ouch" and covered his forehead.
The father looked at Jackie Chan in front of him, raised his chin arrogantly, and said: "Put your affairs aside for now, and come down with me to meet your niece."
"okay."
Jackie Chan rubbed his forehead, how could he dare to speak.
William next to him could only laugh. His father's aura was so strong that he didn't even dare to say a word.
Dad turned around and took two steps forward, and Jackie Chan quickly followed.
But after taking only two steps, my father suddenly turned back and raised a finger towards Jackie Chan: "There is one more thing."
Jackie Chan didn't expect his father to turn around suddenly. Fortunately, the martial arts practitioner reacted quickly and stopped immediately.
"This is the first time you and Xiaoyu have met. You even left Xiaoyu alone at the airport for two hours. You must give Xiaoyu a meeting gift as compensation. This is the most basic courtesy, do you understand?"

Listening to his father's words, Jackie Chan gave a thumbs up and smiled brightly: "Of course, no problem. In fact, I have prepared a gift for Xiaoyu a long time ago. It is a two-hundred-year-old necklace that I got during an archaeological operation, as well as the official I think Xiaoyu will definitely like the certificate awarded."
After Jackie Chan finished speaking, he quickly reached into his trouser pocket.
He put the necklace in a small gift box, which was originally a meeting gift for Xiaoyu.
According to the original plan, after meeting Xiaoyu at the airport, he would give this antique necklace to Xiaoyu.
But as Jackie Chan dug around in his pockets, his expression suddenly turned horrified.
"Strange! It's obviously in your pocket, how come it's missing?!"
Jackie Chan said, turning the trouser pocket completely over, revealing the trouser pocket. The pocket seemed to have been scratched by a sharp weapon, leaving a big hole.
Jackie Chan was still in disbelief. He stuffed his fist into his ripped trouser pocket and could even pass it directly.
In other words, the gift he prepared for Xiaoyu was lost at some point.
At this time, Jackie Chan didn't care much about the value of the gift.
What troubles Jackie the most is the trouble that is so close at hand.
What should I do as a meeting gift for my niece?
Jackie Chan made a sad face, scratched his head, and looked at his father: "Dad, my necklace is lost, but the certificate is still there. Can I give you a certificate?"
William looked at the unlucky Jackie Chan and felt a little embarrassed.
My cousin's niece is still waiting below. It doesn't make sense to just give her a certificate when we meet her for the first time.
With this in mind, William went to dig through his satchel again, trying to find something inside to see if it could be used as a gift, so he could give it to Jackie Chan first.
At this moment, Dad's trouser legs were pulled again, and a cat meowed from beside him.
Hearing the meow, both Dad and Jackie Chan cast their eyes over.
When I saw Tom Mu, I didn't know where to take out a small box.
The box was opened, and inside was a super moose cartoon watch.
"Is this a meeting gift for Xiaoyu?"
Dad looked at Tang Mu in surprise.
Tom Mu held the watch box with both paws, and the cat nodded with a smile on his face.
"Thank God! Although I don't know when you prepared the gift, it's really a big help!"
Jackie Chan finally let out a sigh of relief and took the watch prepared by Tang Mu. He almost burst into tears and thanked Tom Mu repeatedly.
When dad saw this, he thought againHe also pointed and tapped Jackie Chan on the forehead: "Learn more about how to behave with your cat."
These words sounded strange, but Jackie Chan couldn't say anything.
Until now, Jackie Chan can't refute anything.
Dad has already acquiesced that Tom Mu is the cat raised by Jackie Chan.
Although Jackie Chan didn't want to keep a cat at all, this strange big cat did help a lot.
If it weren't for it, today would probably be a mess.
Therefore, Jackie Chan is also considering whether to really adopt this cat.
I don't have time to take care of it myself, but I can ask my dad to take care of it.
And I heard that little girls like furry and cute animals, maybe she will like Tom too.
Thinking about it this way, it seems that adopting a cat is not an unacceptable thing.
"Come down quickly, don't keep Xiaoyu waiting downstairs for a long time."
Dad said hello, and everyone headed to the first floor of the cabin.
Tom followed his father with his tail raised high, like a general returning from victory.
It knows that it has achieved a staged victory in the task of shoveling shit.
Sure enough, trying to conquer Jackie Chan before was a waste of effort.
The effect achieved by attacking Dad directly is much more powerful.
Now that you have established your identity and become a part of this family, the completion of the task of being a shit shovel officer is a matter of course.
After that, just focus on conquering the main line and side tasks.
The group of people came to the first floor of the cabin.
In the living room, I saw a strange little girl standing there.
The little girl looks to be only eleven or twelve years old, with short androgynous hair, wearing a white long-sleeved shirt and an orange hoodie. He was wearing blue cropped pants and red sneakers.
At first meeting, this girl gives the impression that she is a cool kid.
Especially at this time, Cheng Xiaoyu was in a very bad mood. She was standing next to her suitcase, with her hands in her pockets and chewing gum in her mouth, with an air of being distant from others.
When Jackie Chan saw Xiaoyu's appearance, he scratched his head in embarrassment.
Knowing that Xiaoyu must be angry with herself.
Fortunately, Tom Mu helped prepare the gift, otherwise he would really not know what to do at this time.
"Xiaoyu, this is Jackie Chan, your cousin. You will live here for a while. Of course, you can also live in my antique shop, it depends on your preference."
Dad walked between Xiaoyu and Jackie Chan and introduced them to both parties.
"Jackie Chan, this is Xiaoyu, your niece. She just came back from the United States and wants to accept the cultural growth of China. In the future, you can take her more often and say hello."
After the introduction by his father, Jackie Chan bent down and looked at Xiaoyu, with a smile on his face and waved his hand: "Hello, Xiaoyu, your mother and I have talked on the phone. From now on, we are a family. We can talk about anything. I said."
Xiaoyu glanced at Jackie Chan, turned her head and continued chewing, completely ignoring Jackie Chan.
"Well……"
This situation made Jackie Chan a little embarrassed.
Fortunately, his ability to adjust his mentality is good.
He took out the gift Tang Mu had prepared, handed it to Xiaoyu, and said with a smile: "This is a gift prepared for you. I hope you like it."
The cool Xiaoyu was still a little angry.
At first, she was not prepared to pay attention to Jackie Chan, but the gifts were handed in front of her. Although Xiaoyu turned her head to the side, she still glanced sideways subconsciously.
Seeing the small box with familiar packaging, Xiaoyu was stunned for a moment, then quickly turned back and looked at the watch box in front of her.
After seeing the cartoon pattern printed on it clearly, the cool expression on my face finally couldn't hold back, and I couldn't help showing an expression of surprise!
"It's a Super Moose watch!"
Xiaoyu reached out and grabbed the watch box handed over by Tang Mu, opened the box in the palm of her hand, and saw that it was indeed a super moose watch inside, and the smile on her face became even brighter!
Children have a rather impatient temper and always want to try something they like right away, and Xiaoyu is no exception.
Putting the watch on her wrist, Xiaoyu pressed a button on the watch.
"Super Moose! Dulu, Dulu, Dulu, moose in action!"
The cute and honest voice of Super Moose sounded from the watch, and Xiaoyu immediately jumped twice with joy!
"Great! It's really a super moose watch! I've wanted this for a long time, but my mom never bought it for me!"
Seeing Xiaoyu so happy, Jackie Chan and his dad felt relieved.
"As long as you like it."
Jackie Chan feels that raising children is really tiring, many times more tiring than archeology.
He hasn't even started taking care of the child yet, and he's already exhausted.
Little did Jackie Chan know at this time that this was just the beginning.
"Did you buy this specially for me?"
Xiaoyu touched her watch fondly and looked up at Jackie Chan, her big eyes shining brightly.
"Well……"
Of course Jackie Chan can say that he bought this specially for Xiaoyu.
But as an adult, as an elder, you must set a good example in front of your children.
So Jackie Chan squatted down, looked at Xiaoyu at eye level, and said with a smile: "I also prepared a necklace for you as a gift, but I accidentally lost it. This watch is his gift to you."
Jackie Chan said, turning around and grabbing Tang Mu beside him.
Holding Tang Mu's armpits with both hands, he raised the big cat in front of Xiaoyu.
"Cool! What a big cat!"
Xiaoyu's height is really not that high.
She is eleven years old this year, only three feet, not even a meter high.
To be more specific, it is only 0.9144 meters.
At the same age, many of her friends are much taller than her.
Because of this, Xiaoyu is actually quite concerned about her height.
To the average adult, Tom's size is that of a big cat, but it's still acceptable. After all, Maine Coon cats are about the same size as him.
But for Xiaoyu, Tang Mu's size even felt a bit oppressive.
Tang Mu, who is 1.2 meters long, stands much taller than Xiao Yudu.
If Xiaoyu wanted to, Tang Mu could even carry Xiaoyu on his back like Tuantuan in the main world.
"Is your name Tom? Tom?"
Xiaoyu saw the cat tag around Tom's neck and called out Tom Mu's name.
Tang Mu nodded and stretched out his paw towards Xiaoyu, indicating that he wanted to shake hands.
Xiaoyu looked at the big cat in front of her, her eyes shining.
He quickly reached out and held Tom Mu's furry paws and shook his head, not forgetting to ask: "Did you really buy me this super moose watch?"
Tom Mu raised his head proudly and patted his chest gently with his paws.
The body language is very obvious, it is bought.
"Wow! It's really cool! How can you be so smart! You are the smartest cat I have ever seen!"
Now that she has something she is interested in, Xiaoyu's cool kid appearance that doesn't let strangers in is completely gone.
Xiaoyu looks more lively and cute now.
He has what a child should look like.
"Dad, can I play with Tom in the future?"
Xiaoyu hugged Tom and turned to look at her father.
"no."
Dad put on a straight face at first.
Hearing this, Xiaoyu suddenly looked aggrieved and wanted to act coquettishly.
But the father quickly showed a smile and said: "If you want to play with Tom, you have to finish your studies first."
Hearing this, Xiaoyu cheered happily again: "Thank you dad! It's absolutely no problem!"
After handling Xiaoyu's matter, Dad looked at Jackie Chan and said, "Aaron, come here, Dad has something to explain to you."
"Okay, Dad."
Jackie Chan nodded and glanced at Xiaoyu and Tang Mu.
Although I have not known Tom Mu for a long time, this cat is indeed quite magical.
It's no problem to do housework and shopping, and I should be able to take care of children as well.
Besides, the distance between the antique shop and the ship was only more than a hundred meters, and there were acquaintances around.
So I felt relieved and wanted to leave with my father.
Next to him, William was a little anxious when he saw Jackie Chan leaving, and wanted to leave with him. After all, his purpose of coming to Jackie Chan this time had not been achieved yet.

When Dad saw this, he also greeted William: "William, come too, this matter has something to do with you."
"I'll come right away."
William responded happily, tightened his shoulder bag, and hurriedly followed his father and the others.
Watching Dad and the other three leave.
Xiaoyu had a thoughtful look in her eyes.
She hugged Tang Mu's neck, and said in a low voice with a serious look: "They must be talking about something important, otherwise they wouldn't go out of their way to avoid us."
"I know, these adults are like this. They always feel that they have to avoid children when talking about business. But how do they know? Can't we help?"
With that said, Xiaoyu narrowed her eyes again and said, "Let's go over together and eavesdrop on their conversation."
When Tang Mu heard this, he immediately nodded quickly and agreed.
It also wants to see what Jackie Chan and the others want to talk about.
The side mission is to let Jackie Chan explore and become the world's number one explorer.
Jackie Chan's job is as an archaeologist. The possibility of exploration is relatively high, but not absolute.
After all, this world is not a ghost blowing out a lamp or a tomb robbing note.
In most cases, Jackie Chan's archaeological work is relatively normal.
Therefore, in order to complete the task and make some extra money, it is inevitable to provide some guidance to Jackie Chan's archaeological operations.
That William is a good opportunity.
William is a character in the movie "The Myth", and it was his arrival that enabled Jackie Chan to embark on an adventure spanning two thousand years.
Finally we arrived at the Tiangong Mausoleum built by Qin Shihuang.
There is no doubt that this is an adventure that can pass system certification.
Not to mention the final system valuation of the treasures in the palace that day, but at least the guaranteed 50,000 yuan was not lost.
In the movie "Myth", Jackie Chan returned to normal life after completing a series of adventures, and wrote a book about his adventures for publication.
This also gave Tang Mu some inspiration.
It is prepared to bring a camera to take pictures of Jackie Chan's adventures at any time, and then write a biography for publication afterwards.
In addition to publishing books, you can also use your electronic ghost ability to publish blogs and promote on the Internet.
It's a pity that the technology of this world has only developed to the 3G era. Otherwise, Tom Mu would have wanted to broadcast live to Jackie Chan directly.
For now, Tom has positioned himself very accurately, that is, as Watson in "Sherlock Holmes", telling the story of Jackie Chan from his own perspective.
As for Jackie Chan, of course it is Sherlock Holmes.
Tom Mu and Xiaoyu(for more novels (9149)join: https://discord.gg/SZxTKASsHq)One cat and one person quickly left the cabin, following Jackie Chan and the others quietly like thieves.
Dad walked in front, opened the door with the key, and entered Dad's antique shop first.
Jackie Chan and William followed closely behind.
When the store door was about to close, Xiaoyu stretched out a foot and stuck it between the cracks of the door, preventing the door from closing completely.
Xiaoyu gently opened the door.
Tang Mu climbed to the top of the door frame like a gecko and held the welcome bell inside the door to prevent the ringing of the bell from being heard by Jackie Chan and others.
Noticing Tang Mu's movements, Xiaoyu gave Tang Mu a thumbs up.
The two careless guys quietly came to the outside of Dad's studio, lay down by the ajar door, and eavesdropped on the conversation inside.
"Jack, is it really okay to leave your niece and the cat on the boat? I always feel that the cat is a little strange."
William's voice came from inside.
"Oh, William, why are you still as worried as before at such an old age? Don't worry, it will be fine. Xiaoyu and Tom are both well-behaved, much better than you and Jackie Chan."
Dad seemed a little dissatisfied.
Outside the door, Tang Mu and Xiaoyu, who were eavesdropping, looked at each other.
The two guys felt that what their father said was right, and they were quite well-behaved.
