LOT -Chapter 278 Bai Xiao: Can You Sleep Properly!

Seeing how Bai Xiao shielded Lin Mo like that, Lord Lin and the others felt both exasperated and amused.

But they were also relieved. It was pretty nice that this little system would protect their Mo’er.

Looking at their silly daughter who was sleeping soundly on someone else’s shoulder, Lord Lin sighed helplessly. “Since she’s still not fully recovered, let’s let her off this time. Take her back to sleep.”

Honestly, just looking at her one more second was exhausting. This meal really scared everyone half to death.

Hearing this, Bai Xiao nodded, grabbed Lin Mo, slung her over his shoulder, and ran.

Not even willing to waste a second — what if they changed their minds and decided to discipline her?

Watching the two disappear, everyone sighed at the same time.

Covering her chest, Lin Ran still hadn’t recovered from the fright. “I really almost died of fear just now.”

Scenes like that only existed in storybooks — usually someone gets poisoned during a meal and dies on the spot.

Madam Lin felt the same bitter amusement. “This girl just can’t live a single day without causing trouble. If our bodies were a bit weaker, she would’ve scared us to death long ago.”

Day after day, she made their life both thrilling and terrifying.

Lin Qi stared at the mushrooms on the table, falling into deep thought. Maybe he should study whether mushrooms were poisonous… at least then he could eat in peace from now on.

Among everyone, Lord Lin was the calmest. After all, this wasn’t the first time something like this had happened. To live with this little troublemaker, one needed a resilient heart — and he had already been trained well.

Other than his initial panic, once he realized the little brat was simply asleep, he instantly calmed down. As long as she was fine, everything else was a small matter.

Lin Mo, of course, had no idea how she had just escaped disaster. When she was thrown onto her bed, she slept like a pig. Bai Xiao looked at her and nearly shook her awake out of pure frustration.

“You’re sleeping so well! Meanwhile, I was terrified trying to defend you. I’m just a little system and you scared me half to death!”

Sitting on the bedside, he kept complaining endlessly, occasionally praising his heroic performance.

“Stop talking! I’m trying to sleep!” Lin Mo was annoyed and slapped him without hesitation. Her slap landed solidly on Bai Xiao’s forehead.

Bai Xiao: … Domestic abuse! This is definitely domestic abuse!

I just saved you from a beating, and you hit me the moment we return? This is betrayal! Utter betrayal!

Enraged, Bai Xiao bit her hand. Lin Mo subconsciously grabbed his mouth, half-opening her sleepy eyes.

“What are you doing? Go to sleep!”

Bai Xiao, his mouth trapped: …

So annoying. How could she react so fast even when half-asleep?

【You’re not clean. You haven’t bathed.】

Lin Mo, half-asleep, heard: “I haven’t washed my feet? Then wash them for me.”

Bai Xiao: “… I SAID you haven’t bathed! Bathed! Do you understand?!”

Lin Mo: “Feet, I know. You can wash my feet.”

And she lifted a foot toward him.

Looking at the foot in his hand, Bai Xiao: …

This was truly a little ancestor. He was probably the first system in history to be forced to wash someone’s feet. If this got out, a whole group of systems would laugh themselves to death.

Muttering curses, Bai Xiao went to fetch water. Lin Mo comfortably closed her eyes again.

Having someone serve you was actually pretty nice — even having your feet washed. Very relaxing!

Lord Lin, who had come to check on her: …

Why did he suddenly feel a bit sorry for Bai Xiao? Their daughter was truly a calamity for the poor little system.

Even though he adored his troublesome daughter, not that much. She really treated the little system however she pleased.

Fortunately Bai Xiao had a good temper. If it were someone else, they would have flipped the table long ago.

But seeing Lin Mo being cared for actually made Lord Lin feel more at ease.

As Bai Xiao washed her feet, he muttered nonstop. “This is my first time washing someone’s feet… your feet are really small though. Too bad you can’t turn tiny. If you could, I could directly put you in a cup for a bath. Bet you’ve never had a milk bath before, smelling like milk afterward.”

Lin Mo squinted her eyes and pressed her foot onto his face. “Shut up. I’m trying to sleep.”

Staring at the foot on his face, Bai Xiao chomped down angrily. “You heartless little thing! And you say I have no conscience—clearly you’re the one!”

That night, Bai Xiao was so angry he couldn’t sleep. Meanwhile, Lin Mo slept blissfully.

The next morning, she cheerfully greeted him. “Good morning! When did I fall asleep last night? Why are my clothes still the same?”

Sitting on the bed hugging a pillow, Bai Xiao glared at her with sleepy eyes. “Change what clothes? You fell asleep at the dinner table. If I hadn’t stopped them, you would’ve gotten beaten. Your parents thought you got poisoned by mushrooms!”

“When we got back, I told you to take a bath. You heard ‘wash feet’ and made me wash your feet. And not only that — you stepped on my face. I was so angry I bit you!”

Lin Mo looked at her foot. White and clean… where was the bite mark?

To take care of her, Bai Xiao hadn’t even turned small last night.
So annoying.

“Can you get a bigger bed? When I’m big, there’s no space for both of us. You crushed me all night.”

“I bathed with flower petals and smelled amazing — you made me stink.”

Bai Xiao looked genuinely disgusted. He usually turned tiny and slept on Lin Mo’s face, but last night—

Her feet almost hit him in the face multiple times. She tossed around like a tornado, rolling from one side to the other. He swore she was worse than a drunk person.

Bai Xiao continued complaining, full of grievances: “Do you know how much trouble you caused last night? First you slept on my chest. Then you sprawled all over me. Then you somehow flipped, your head hanging off one side, and your feet almost stuffed into my mouth!”

He had been kicked awake in the middle of the night when both her feet landed on his face while her head dangled off the bed.

How was that sleeping? Before this, she had never slept so wildly.

Lin Mo was so embarrassed she wanted to disappear. She had dreamed of becoming a martial arts master… probably because she watched the minister of Dali Temple practicing earlier.
