LOT – Chapter 110 This Is Your Own Little Husband!

The Third Prince was already sobbing in his heart. From now on, whenever he went out, he must get his fortune told first!

Seeing the Third Prince constantly turning back to look at her with pitiful, resentful eyes, Lin Mo touched her nose in embarrassment and gave him a little wave.

She was truly sorry—she hadn’t known things would turn out like this. She had only asked a casual question, that was all!

But then again, losing weight wasn’t a bad thing. It was good for his health.

Bai Xiao let out a sigh and commented: 【I wonder how long the Third Prince will be locked up this time. Hopefully, he can shed all that fat sooner rather than later.】

Lin Mo dragged Bai Xiao all over the capital, bumping into one scandal after another. One day she was catching adulterers, the next day she was spying on someone’s secret rendezvous. Life was so full of drama that it was hard to put into words.

The people of the capital ate melon after melon along with her, and the unlucky families involved could only swallow the bitterness—who told them to be the ones the melons sprouted on?

One day, on their way home after wandering around, Lin Mo and Bai Xiao spotted Lin Qi and Princess Hua Yao strolling slowly ahead.

Bai Xiao exclaimed in amazement: 【Look, look! Your brother is on a date with Princess Hua Yao! Just look at him—this big, strapping man who could carry you on one shoulder, yet he’s acting all delicate and bashful. Tsk, tsk, tsk. That’s definitely a tactic!】

Lin Mo nodded in agreement: 【Exactly! But his face takes after our mother—looking delicate suits him just fine.】

Lin Qi and Princess Hua Yao, up ahead on their “date”: …

When did you two sneak up here?! Could you hurry along instead of spoiling our rendezvous? Couldn’t you at least respect the mood?

Princess Hua Yao cleared her throat lightly and whispered, “Why don’t we find another place?”

This young Lord Lin was quite good, but she seemed to be missing a string in her head.

She was at the age for marriage already, yet she acted as though she hadn’t awakened to such things at all.

Lin Qi gritted his teeth, forcing a smile. “Then let’s hurry and leave.” Of all times, this brat had to come back now—was it on purpose?

And that Bai Xiao! Couldn’t he at least stop her once in a while? You can’t always indulge this brat!

He had thought once the system turned into a person, it would help keep her in check. Who knew Bai Xiao would turn into her partner-in-crime instead!

As that thought flashed past, Bai Xiao’s voice rang out: 【Quick, quick! They’re about to run! Your brother just looked back—they must’ve spotted us! Hurry up and make your piggy run!】

Lin Mo pulled on the reins and declared confidently: 【Don’t worry, they won’t get away! Today I will eat this melon!】

Lin Qi and Princess Hua Yao: …

Was this really necessary? Couldn’t you go on a date with your own little husband instead? Let us have ours, and you have yours—no one needs to bother anyone!

The two of them exchanged a look, then tapped their toes on the ground and used lightness skill to fly away.

Lin Mo, still on her pig, froze in place. “Oh shoot! I forgot—they both know martial arts!”

No melon today! Even if Bai Xiao could narrate events for her, it wasn’t the same—if she couldn’t experience it in person, the flavor was gone.

The more Lin Mo thought about it, the more unwilling she felt. She promptly pulled Bai Xiao out of her sleeve, pinched him between two fingers, and asked very seriously: “Can you take me flying? Like what they just did—whoosh up into the sky.”

Bai Xiao gave her a speechless look. “How many times must I say this? I can’t soar through the skies or burrow through the earth. I don’t know lightness skill. Aside from turning big or small for protection mode, that’s the limit of my abilities.”

Hearing this, Lin Mo squinted at him in disgust, then stuffed him back into her sleeve. “Tch! What kind of useless system are you? In novels, other people’s systems are amazing—when they become human, they’re domineering CEOs or dragon overlords. You can’t do anything!”

Her words made Bai Xiao laugh angrily. “I can’t do anything? Who do you think has been feeding you melons all day? Without me narrating, would your life be half this exciting?”

The more he spoke, the angrier he got, and finally he bit her arm—hard enough to sting, but no more than a mosquito bite.

Lin Mo yelped and slapped at her arm on reflex. A shriek immediately came from her sleeve.

“Ahhh! Lin Mo! Are you trying to kill me? That slap almost flattened me!”

Hastily, she pulled him out to check—still the same exquisite little man, not squashed.

“You bit me, didn’t you? Even if you didn’t, you must’ve pinched me! How could you, as a man, raise your hand against me?”

Bai Xiao roared back, “I didn’t! I used my mouth! Don’t you humans always say a gentleman argues with his mouth, not his fists? I used my mouth!”

At that, Lin Mo opened her mouth wide and pretended to stuff him inside.

“Ahhhh! Cannibal! Cannibal! Somebody save me!”

Bickering like this, they made their way home. Ding Ba and the big boar were long used to it, occasionally glancing back only when the quarrels got particularly heated.

As their voices faded into the distance, Lin Qi and Princess Hua Yao poked their heads out from hiding.

Princess Hua Yao couldn’t help confessing her fondness for Lin Mo. “Young Master Lin is really fun. If I were a man and married her, life would be so lively.”

Lin Qi’s pupils shrank at once. He whipped his head around. “Absolutely not!”

How could his little sister attract admirers everywhere she went? Just like their father!

Seeing his tense expression, Princess Hua Yao couldn’t hold back a laugh. She pinched his cheek playfully. “I was only joking. It’s late—I’ll take you home.”

Lin Qi touched his burning-red ears and nodded. By now, he was already used to being escorted home.

Meanwhile, back at the Lin residence, Lin Mo and Bai Xiao had actually started fighting. Lin Ran sat to the side, calmly watching.

Bai Xiao still lacked real combat experience, so Lin Mo had the upper hand most of the time.

Cracking melon seeds, Lin Ran offered advice: “Grab her wrist. You’re stronger than her—once you catch her wrist, she won’t be able to move.”

Obediently, Bai Xiao caught Lin Mo’s wrist. He was half a head taller than her; if they really fought seriously, Lin Mo wouldn’t be a match. But as a civilized system, he never hit women.

Lin Mo, listening to her elder sister siding with Bai Xiao, nearly exploded. “Sis! Whose side are you on? I’m your real sister!”

Lin Ran sipped her tea and let out a relaxed sigh. “I stand by reason, not by kinship. You’ve already landed a few punches, and he hasn’t fought back. Just don’t ruin his handsome face—that would be a pity. After all…”

She didn’t say the last part out loud: After all, this is your own little husband.
