Qin He watched He Yan holding the little milk bun clumsily, looking extremely reluctant, and secretly rolled her eyes at the child, thinking, "Stop pretending to be cute; Heir He doesn't even like you."

"Too much like Qin Bi," Qin He couldn't help but roll her eyes again.

She turned away to roll her eyes in secret, not daring to do it openly; although Qin He felt that Heir Rong wouldn't give her absolutely no face, she subconsciously felt she must not let Heir Rong see it.

The little milk bun tilted his head to look at Qin He, froze for a moment, held up the jade pendant, lifted his little head, and tugged at He Yan with the hand not holding the pendant. He Yan lowered his eyes, and the little milk bun held up the jade pendant in a milkily cute way.

"Like," the child said.

To like means to want; the child was very straightforward.

He Yan: "......"

Qin Yan was speechless; the jade pendant that Heir He carried with him was no simple jade pendant.

Heir Su was on the other side of He Yan, leaned over and smiled. This jade pendant was worth a fortune; judging by its quality, it was a top-grade magical treasure. As expected of Heir Rong's child, his taste was quite good.

Heir Su looked at He Yan; the child liked it.

Rong Juan held Rong Yang, his gaze sweeping over. "Don't ask for what you shouldn't, yet you ask He Yan for everything you shouldn't. Fubao isn't He Yan's child, yet she asks for this and that. Rong Yang has stopped paying attention to He Yan because He Yan gives things to Fubao."

Now this is great; his son, Rong Chi, has actually joined in too.

Rong Juan glanced at He Yan with a look that was not quite a smile. "Why does every child ask He Yan for things?" Rong Juan chuckled. "When did He Yan's fate become like this? Everyone is sponging off the rich."

Qin He stood with Fubao. Fubao was looking forward to the boiled melon seeds from the kitchen. Qin He's mouth turned down in disdain. "So young and already knowing how to ask for things. Truly Qin Bi's child, just like Qin Bi, so petty."

He Yan would not give this jade pendant away, only saying, "I'll give you a high-grade beast crystal later."

A high-grade beast crystal—He Yan could be considered generous. Giving one away for no reason, Rong Chi tilted his little head, knowing what a beast crystal was; his father and brother both had them.

The little milk bun stretched out his little hand: "Crystal."

Heir Su laughed and said to He Yan, "Just give it to him."

He Yan simply took a high-grade beast crystal from his storage bag. It was crimson red—a fire-attribute high-grade beast crystal. Everyone gasped; only fierce beasts possessed such a piece.

Rong Chi grabbed it quickly and reached out his little body to hand it to Rong Yang: "Brother, keep it."

Rong Yang understood what Rong Chi was saying; his younger brother wanted him to keep it first, as he would want it later. Rong Yang didn't want to pay attention to He Yan, this father, and didn't want the item either, but since his brother liked it, Rong Yang took it.

Qin He was so angry she lowered her head and glared fiercely at Rong Yang and Rong Chi.

Rong Juan gave a cold snort. Qin He was startled, composed her expression, and said with a smile, "A fire-attribute high-grade beast crystal is very rare. Children can't use it; Heir He, just give them something children can eat."

Rong Juan squinted at Qin He: "Your Fubao and Xue Rui can't use it either."

Qin He choked. Heir Xue was stunned; were fire-attribute beast crystals so easy to obtain? He was envious; the Xue Wang Fu hadn't received high-grade beast crystals from the Yan Guogong Fu for a long time.

Heir Xue felt that since he had a good relationship with Heir He, he should be able to get one too. He climbed up the pole and asked He Yan: "Heir He, is there another fire-attribute high-grade beast crystal? Give our Xue Rui a high-grade beast crystal too."

He Yan turned his head and glanced at the cheerful Heir Xue: "None left."

Heir Xue was disappointed, but thinking of something, he added: "Remember to give our Xue Rui a high-grade beast crystal when you get one later. If there are extras, give our Fubao one too."

Heir Su raised his eyebrows. "Whoa, how can you be so shameless to ask?"

If it were before, it wouldn't have mattered. After all, Heir He had no children, so if he saw a child he liked, he would just give them a beast crystal. But now, Heir He has his own biological child.

Qin Yan didn't care; Heir He had always taken care of Qin He, so giving a high-grade beast crystal was nothing.

When Qin He was pregnant, she needed to be nourished with rare treasures, and every time Heir He went to the Beast Realm's small space, he collected many good things, all of which ended up benefiting Qin He.

He Yan smiled imperceptibly and scolded with a laugh: "Xue Qing, don't push your luck."

Heir Xue said with a smile: "Just treat my son as your own child. And our Fubao, they are all your children. You can't be biased and ignore Fubao and Xue Rui just because you have Rong Yang now."

Everyone present was sharp; they understood immediately. The Xue family was trying to compete.

Qin Yan looked at Rong Yang. At a time like this, only Rong Yang himself could compete for the things of the Yan Guogong Fu. Rong Yang opened his little storage bag and had his brother put the fire-attribute high-grade beast crystal away; his brother would ask him for it later.

Qin Yan thought to himself, this child is still too young; he doesn't see the Xue Wang Fu's intentions.

"Little Heir," Heir Su teased the little milk bun Rong Chi: "You earned a fire-attribute high-grade beast crystal for nothing."

Rong Chi said in a milky voice: "Earned."

Several heirs were amused by the child, while Qin He was pouting and rolling her eyes.

Fubao lowered her head, hesitating whether to go and ask for a fire-attribute high-grade beast crystal too. For the past year, the Yan Guogong Fu hadn't given her much; clearly, it should all belong to her, Fubao.

She was blessed; everyone should like her. Whatever she wanted, they should give it to her.

The small interlude passed, and everyone began to chat.

Qin He kept saying that high-grade beast crystals were rare: "Killing high-grade beasts in the Beast Realm's small space is a life-and-death struggle; every high-grade beast crystal is hard to come by."

Rong Juan's expression was indifferent: "I remember that you used to be able to get several high-grade beast crystals very easily, all sent by Heir He. Qin He, your memory is truly poor; you've forgotten all the good things you received."

Qin He: "......"

Qin Yan and Heir Su remained silent. Isn't this just asking for it? Who hasn't heard Qin He's stingy tone? She likely treats everything in the Yan Guogong Fu as her own; to be this stingy over one fire-attribute high-grade beast crystal.

Rong Yang never paid attention to He Yan, but the child would pay attention to his younger brother in He Yan's arms.

The little milk bun had obtained a fire-attribute high-grade beast crystal, yet he continued to hold the jade pendant, refusing to let go. While He Yan and Qin Yan were talking, the child treasured the jade pendant.

"Like," the little milk bun looked up, gazing at He Yan.

He Yan: "......"

Qin He couldn't help but say: "This jade pendant is a magical treasure; a child shouldn't have such a valuable item. Our Xue Rui and Fubao don't want it."

Rong Chi, the little green tea, had tears in his eyes and turned to find Rong Juan: "Rong Chi."

Rong Juan felt heartache, but even with heartache, he couldn't snatch Heir He's jade pendant. Rong Juan said: "It's not ours. Come here, Father's jade pendant is for you. Your eyesight is poor; Heir He doesn't like children, why are you looking for him?"

Rong Juan didn't forget to mock He Yan at this moment. Rong Chi wouldn't go over, holding the jade pendant with his head down. Rong Juan and Rong Yang were startled. Rong Juan was quick-witted and reached out to grab the jade pendant; the little milk bun didn't manage to gnaw on it.
