Chapter 129: She's not as pretty as your mom (votes for monthly tickets, please!)
```
Auntie Xiaochun's words not only shocked Fang You and Luo Xianyu standing by, but also left Xia Nuo herself wearing a baffled expression.
"Ah? Zun dudu jia dudu..."
Luo Xianyu was muttering under her breath, "Nuo Nuo, isn't your dad running a chain of supermarkets?"
"Right, isn't my dad running a chain of supermarkets?"
Scratching her head, Xia Nuo was completely at a loss, "When did he start selling toys without telling me?"
She hurried out to take a glance at the name of the toy store, "No, this store isn't called Yangxin either."
"Although the toy store is not your dad's supermarket brand, the store was indeed started with the money your dad gave Auntie Xiaochun; that's why they say the store is your dad's."
Auntie Xiaochun tried to explain to Xia Nuo in terms an eight-year-old could understand, but instead, Xia Nuo was even more confused:
"Why would my dad give Auntie Xiaochun money!"
Xia Nuo was shocked, "My dad has been busy working outside this year, is there really something going on!"
"Ah this... how should I put it..."
It was then that Fang You interjected, "Auntie means that this toy store is established with investment from Uncle Xia, Uncle Xia is the main shareholder, is that what you mean?"
"That's right, that's right, Nuo Nuo, your friend is really smart!"
"Is there a problem, You You..."
Xia Nuo whispered to Fang You with a murmur.
Although she didn't quite understand, she still trusted Fang You's judgment a lot.
"There is still a little problem."
Now it was Fang You reminding Auntie Xiaochun, "The three Paru machines add up to quite a bit of money, even if it's Uncle Xia's store, it's not right to skip the transaction, we should still pay for it ourselves."
"Oh, Auntie Xiaochun couldn't possibly use Nuo Nuo's dad's money to grant favors for her, it's naturally Auntie who pays out of her own pocket to give them to you!"

The generous Auntie Xiaochun patted Xia Nuo and Fang You on the head, "Okay, one Emperor edition for each of you. We've got just three left anyway, and they aren't easy to sell, so I might as well give them all to you."
...
For free!
There was a thudding sound.
Wang Zhuangfei kneeled down on the spot, right then and there.
In the entire Mei City, there are only three kids with such swagger about to be born right in front of me?
I endured such a brutal beating, nearly getting killed to get my hands on the Emperor of Oath edition Paru Generation Three, and they got it just by shooting the breeze.
No! How can this be fair!
Wang Zhuangfei covered his reddened face, his eyes shooting fire!
[Jealousy made Wang Zhuangfei unrecognizable, Emotional Energy +50*10]
Wow, straight up to five hundred Emotional Energy points, huh...
However, even with the chance to freeload on the golden Paru, Xia Nuo and Luo Xianyu still chose to stick with their original intention and selected the white and blue Paru machines.
Looking good is the most important thing for a girl...
At that moment, Wang Zhuangfei remained kneeling on the ground, trying hard to grapple with the disparities of the world.
His young heart was filled with endless regret.
I deserve to die, truly.
Wang Zhuangfei now deeply regretted provoking such a big shot.
A poor kid who could only afford to play with paper airplanes, his real identity was actually that of a toy store's young miss.
No wonder that You You clung to the girl like an aimless sissy...
To know that the girl's family owned a toy store.
I would be willing to be her dog!
Wow wow! Bark bark!
For elementary school students of this age, kids whose families owned supermarkets were already elite among their peers.
So what kind of family would own a toy store?
No, even a hundred-pull lot seems fine...
After all, it won't be long until your Emperor Youyou starts showing off with his Golden Paru in Mei City!
However, the purpose of this trip was originally to buy origami tools, but unexpectedly I've earned myself a Paru machine.
Though the family is already wealthy, this feeling of a free haul brings a different kind of experience.
It's pretty thrilling, hehe.
[You've experienced the joy of a free haul, be careful not to indulge too much and lose yourself! Knowledge Energy +10]
...
Do you think I need reminding? I'm not someone with such a weak will.
No joy can stop me from continuing to evolve.
However, speaking of Aunt Xiaochun, Fang You suddenly remembers something:
"Right, I feel like Aunt Xiaochun looked familiar, isn't she in some of the photos on the walls at Nuo Nuo's family music room? The bass player holding a bass guitar..."
"Yes, that's Aunt Xiaochun."
Xia Nuo said, "She and Dad knew each other from a very young age."
Luo Xianyu said with surprise, "That, isn't that just like us?"
Xia Nuo said with concern, "Exactly, that's why I think Aunt Xiaochun must still like my dad."
Eight-year-old Xia Nuo was already of an age to understand things; her guess wasn't pulled out of thin air, and she had her concerns and reasoning.
"So did Aunt Xiaochun want to marry Uncle Xia when she was little too?"
Luo Xianyu asked curiously, "Maybe she just wanted to be Dad's daughter like Ayu."
"Dad never mentioned it, and he couldn't tell me either..."
Xia Nuo thought for a bit, "Because I am Mom's daughter, I would definitely tell Mom if I knew."
"That's strange, why then didn't Aunt Xiaochun end up with Uncle Xia when she grew up?"
Luo Xianyu stared blankly at Fang You, who was absorbing Emotional Energy on the side, "Dad, do you know why?"
"Isn't it obvious? She wasn't as pretty as your mom."
Fang You casually replied.
...
This earth-shattering answer made Luo Xianyu and Xia Nuo suddenly see the light.
"That makes sense, that's how it is!"
"Indeed, my mom is very beautiful," Xia Nuo said with full agreement.
The two children suddenly grasped a profound truth of life.
Luo Xianyu, looking at Xia Nuo's adorable and sweet cheeks, immediately nodded in satisfaction, "With Nuo Nuo being so pretty, I don't have to worry about someone abducting Dad when she grows up."
"That's true... ah, wait a second."
Seeing Luo Xianyu's dumbfounded face, Xia Nuo suddenly realized a grave issue:
"Then according to You You's logic, if Ayu grows up to be prettier than me, wouldn't You You end up marrying Ayu instead?"
...
Luo Xianyu's reaction was like a dramatic fall of her sunglasses.
"You You... wants to marry Ayu?"
She immediately became nervous:
"I'm your daughter, you can't marry me! That's something you can get jailed for, do you hear, Dad!"
"Do you hear that, Dad... ah no, You You!"
Luo Xianyu and Xia Nuo both stared seriously at Fang You, Ayu furrowing her brows in concern, Xia Nuo also trying to mimic Ayu's comedic expression, her eyebrows quivering.
...
Faced with the children's earnest questions, Fang You was left speechless by them.
"You two kids, always up to no good instead of playing games, always thinking about marriage. Wait till we get home and see how I deal with you!"
"Wah! You You is angry! Run fast! You can't catch me! You can't find me!"
"Ehehe, Nuo Nuo wait for me, don't leave me behind... wuwu—"
