"You treat my daughter as a tool, and you can still use her to show off?" Gardevoir retorted dissatisfiedly. She didn't even notice that her attitude towards Li Yuan had changed a little after this exchange.
Before, how could she have argued with Li Yuan? Not to mention talking to him, she would have wanted to teleport away just by seeing him, okay?
"Yes, yes, you are right, okay? How dare I say I am wrong?" Li Yuan sighed helplessly, and had to send her back to Gardevoir's arms in the puzzled eyes of Ralts.
Naturally, Gardevoir immediately took her daughter back, as if she was afraid that she would go back on her word.
But when she saw that her daughter was really safe and sound and that Li Yuan had no intention of hurting them, Gardevoir felt a little hesitant.
According to her original plan, she had intended to teleport away as soon as she got her daughter back, and rebuild her home in a deserted place.
But now she felt a little embarrassed to just leave. After all, you shouldn't hit someone who smiles at you. Li Yuan didn't give her the impression of being a bad person. Besides, her daughter had eaten so much of his food, so it would seem impolite for her to just leave with a sour face.
So at this time, Gardevoir was in a dilemma.
"Also, you can take these energy cubes back with you first. They should be enough for you to eat for a week." Li Yuan seemed to have no idea what she was thinking. There was only concern for them in his eyes. He took out more than a dozen boxes of energy cubes from his backpack and pushed them all in front of Gardevoir.
Such a disregard for past grudges and expression of goodwill really put Gardevoir in a difficult position.
After a long while, she finally spoke: "I'm sorry, I admit that you are a good person, but I will not forget the pain, nor will I accept charity from you humans. You should take these things back."
But Li Yuan shook his head bluntly, retorting with some dissatisfaction, "I don't like what you said. Since you also think I'm a good person, why do you think I'm giving you charity? Can't we just support each other as friends? I know you don't want to betray your heart easily, and don't want to forget your scars and accept humans again just for a little benefit, but we can both take a step back. You don't accept humans, just me as an independent individual, right? I don't think I'm so annoying that I can't be accepted, right?"
"..."
After hearing this, Gardevoir was indeed silent.
She couldn't refute it. Li Yuan was just an independent individual and could not be generalized as a human being.
But Li Yuan was right. How could she forget the pain so quickly and betray him after being given a little sweetness? Such a soft-hearted person would not be able to survive in the wild where only the fittest survive.
Li Yuan didn't expect to convince Gardevoir right away. He still patiently gave her a way out: "Besides, even if you don't consider yourself, you should at least consider Ralts. She's still so young and needs nutrition to grow. You probably haven't found a stable source of food right now. Can you bear to let your daughter go hungry every day?"
These words touched upon Gardevoir's sore spot. Her only weakness now was her daughter. She could endure starvation, but she could not accept her daughter suffering with her.
When she said this, she felt hatred again. If humans had not taken her away from her home and she had not been able to find her way home, how could she have fallen into such a dilemma?
Since it was humans who caused her to become like this, wouldn't it be unreasonable for her to collect some interest from them now?
"Alas... I accept your kindness. You are indeed different from them." Gardevoir finally chose to compromise. In the end, the most important thing is his daughter's growth.
Seeing her daughter starving, isn't she the one who feels the most uncomfortable?
Whether for her daughter or for herself, she had to accept this favor.
I have to say that this is indeed an open conspiracy, and Gardevoir has no way to refuse.
After looking at Li Yuan deeply, she finally did not choose to teleport away from this place. Instead, she took her daughter back to the tree hole and planned to live there for the time being.
However, she still had to have a good talk with her daughter. How could she teleport down there without caring about the danger just for some delicious food? The Liyuan people were lucky enough. If she met those hunters again, wouldn't her daughter be walking into a trap?
After all, how delicious can this little thing called energy cube be? It can make my daughter look so stupid and brainless. Could it be that it really contains some drugs that can lower her intelligence?
Gardevoir opened the box, and hesitantly picked up a cube with telekinesis, brought it to his mouth and sniffed it.
She had to admit that this thing was really fragrant. Even before she took a bite, she could feel that it contained a large amount of tree fruit essence. The effect of eating this cube would probably be more useful than eating the whole tree fruit.
I really don’t know how humans made this thing. If the baby can eat this every day, he will surely grow very fast, right?
Driven by strong curiosity, Gardevoir finally couldn't help but opened its lips and swallowed the energy cube in one gulp.
At this moment, Gardevoir, who was originally skeptical, suddenly widened her eyes and covered her mouth in great surprise. She felt as if a bomb exploded in her mouth. The extremely rich fruity aroma seemed to envelop all her senses, and the whole world seemed to be filled with fragrance.
A large amount of sweet saliva began to grow uncontrollably in her mouth, forcing her to swallow all the fragrance!
"This... is so delicious! It clearly tastes like tree fruit, why is it so delicious?" Gardevoir showed an expression of disbelief, as if she understood why her daughter ate so foolishly. This taste was indeed enjoyable.
She didn't expect that food is not only used to fill the stomach, but can also make people forget their sorrows for a short time. At that moment, she felt extremely happy.
She had lived for so many years and had no idea that the human taste buds could be so satisfied.
Compared with the ultimate enjoyment of these energy blocks, what are the fruits I brought for my daughter?
To put it bluntly, it tastes worse than shit...
How could that guy give her daughter such delicious food? What if she gets addicted to it and leaves with him in the future?
Wait, could this be his evil purpose?
Gardevoir expressed serious doubts, but it is not impossible.
But then she thought again and felt that others had shared such good things with her, so why was she still so suspicious of them?
Besides, isn’t this what Li Yuan feeds his elves? Maybe in the eyes of others, this is something that cannot be more ordinary. Who knew that they can’t even eat this?
It seems that she was overthinking it. Why did she suddenly feel a little sad?
Chapter 47 Mom is so annoying!
Gardevoir had to admit that she also fell in love with the taste of energy cubes.
I didn’t expect that city people eat so well. Could it be that the elves around the boy can eat these every day?
As the saying goes, there is no harm without comparison. Originally, Gardevoir didn't think there was anything wrong with her lifestyle, but now that she compared it with human elves, she realized that the place she lived in had always been a doghouse...
In addition to these energy blocks, Gardevoir naturally also saw the large tent set up by Huanhuan. The configuration inside the tent was luxurious. The quilts that looked extremely soft at first glance were like the difference between the bright moon and the firefly compared to her bed of hay and leaves.
I'm afraid that even if she works hard all her life, she won't be able to let her daughter live the life of a human elf?
This is somewhat discouraging.
"Baby, you just stay at home for the time being. You can't have any contact with those people anymore, okay?" Gardevoir was really scared now. She was not afraid that Li Yuan was a bad person, on the contrary, she was afraid that he was a good person.
If Li Yuan is a good man and Lalulas slowly falls in love with him during their interactions, will she stop her daughter from being with him or accept the fact that her daughter has been abducted?
I'm afraid both choices are very difficult for her?
So the best way now is to let my daughter stop contacting Li Yuan, so that she won’t be deceived by the beautiful life described to her.
Once you follow humans, what’s the difference between that and becoming a slave to humans?
If you want them to fight, they have to fight. If you want them to sleep with you, they have to warm the bed. Although such a life seems to be comfortable, it is exchanged for their beauty and freedom. Is it really worth it?
"Lalu Lalu! (I think big brother is a good person!)" Lalu Lasi retorted timidly. In fact, she never really understood why her mother hated big brother so much. Obviously, big brother gave them so many delicious foods. He was completely different from those bad hunters!
"What do you know? He's being nice to you on purpose and wants to trick you away. When the time comes, you'll be sold and still be helping him count the money foolishly." Gardevoir said sternly.
"Lalu Lalu! (No way, big brother will never lie to me!)" How could a child as young as Lalu Lasi know how to distinguish right from wrong? She only knew that big brother was really good to her, and it was not okay for her mother to say bad things about big brother.
"Look at yourself now. If he wants to take you away, will you go with him?" Gardevoir asked back.
"Lalu! (No way!)" Lalu Lasi pouted angrily.
"Really? Then you'd better remember what you said today and don't let mom see you being tricked by him." Gardevoir reminded.
"Lalu! (Ugh! Mom is an idiot! Mom is a bully! Ignore Mom!)" Lalu Lasi was blocked by her mother and was speechless. In a fit of anger, she uttered a bunch of bad words and then disappeared from her mother's sight in a flash.
When Gardevoir saw his daughter teleport away, he immediately became anxious. Could it be that his daughter ran away from home in anger?
It seems that her daughter's ability to teleport is not necessarily a good thing. At least she can no longer restrict the other person's range of activities. What if she teleports to an unfamiliar place and can't come back?
However, what made Gardevoir feel a little relieved was that since Li Yuan was still downstairs, her daughter should not run around.
She quickly cast her gaze downwards again, and sure enough, she saw her daughter throwing herself into the arms of that human again, burying her little face in the boy's arms angrily, as if she never wanted to see her again.
This gave Gardevoir a headache.
She found that her outlook on life had really suffered a serious impact since the human attack.
How could her daughter have behaved so disobediently in the past? In her daughter's eyes at that time, she was everything in her daughter's world. Even if she was wronged, she would throw herself into her arms. It was nothing like now when she completely ignored her.
Could it be that my daughter was really kidnapped like this?
That was even harder for her to accept than her daughter being kidnapped by hunters.
When she was kidnapped, at least her daughter still had her in her heart, but now it is obvious that she feels that her mother is not as attractive as outsiders!
No! This absolutely cannot happen! She is her daughter's biological mother. How can her position in her daughter's heart be lower than that of an outsider?
Gardevoir immediately teleported down angrily, and directly pressed Ralts in Li Yuan's arms: "Hurry up and go back with your mother!"
"Lalu! (No! I don't know my mother!)" Lalu Lasi had a stubborn temper and started to go against her mother.
"If you do this again, Mom will be really angry!" Gardevoir frowned and her tone became a little stern.
“Woo…!” Lalulas didn’t dare to refute her mother anymore, but she was unwilling to leave her big brother’s arms.
Li Yuan could clearly feel Lalulas hugging him tighter. His little face was buried deep in her arms, sobbing slightly, as if seeking his protection.
Li Yuan knew that taking down Ralts was an important part of conquering Gardevoir. Naturally, he couldn't let the little girl down at this time. He quickly hugged her little body and looked at Gardevoir with dissatisfaction and said, "Gardevoir, why are you being so mean to the child?"
"What's your business here? Do I need your consent to educate my child?" Gardevoir glared at him. All this was caused by him, and she hasn't even settled the score with him yet!
"I have something to tell you about this. This is not the way to educate children. The best way to make children obedient is to establish a close relationship with them first." Li Yuan acted like a person who had experienced this.
"What do you know? Stop preaching to me here. Do you really think we are familiar with each other?" Gardevoir was obviously dissatisfied with his attitude.
"Look, you get angry when something doesn't go your way. This isn't the behavior of a good mother. This is probably your first time being a mother, right?"
"This is nonsense. Can this happen a second time?"
"Forget it, let me demonstrate it to you." Li Yuan shook his head. After all, Gardevoir had never been exposed to the influence of human society, and her thoughts were still relatively conservative. Instead of wasting time lecturing her, it would be more practical to directly shut her up with facts.
Li Yuan looked down at the little Loli in his arms, and took out a very precious 'Life Energy Cube' from the system backpack.
Life energy blocks are different from psychic energy blocks. The latter are only suitable for psychic elves, while the former are universal for all elves and also contain a trace of the essence of life energy.
This essence of life energy not only brings unprecedented enjoyment to the taste buds, but also makes all the cells in the body go on a carnival, thereby better tapping the potential.
As the Life Energy Cube was used, Gardevoir, who was originally very dissatisfied, instantly stopped talking and looked at the small cube in his hand in surprise.
Lalulas couldn't help but wrinkle his nose, and was instantly attracted by the scent that was even more fragrant than the psychic cube. He couldn't help but raise his little head and look at the big brother's hand with a face full of desire.
"Lalu Lalu~! (What a great thing!)" Lalu Lalu, who was originally sobbing, was instantly attracted and her eyes lit up, with little stars in her eyes.
"This~, this is a small snack that big brother rewards for obedient children. Who is the obedient child~?" Li Yuan said, shaking the life block in front of her.
"Lalu Lalu~! (It's me, it's me! Big brother, please give me some time!)" Lalu Lasi responded quickly.
"Then can Lalulas promise big brother that from now on you won't run into anyone else's arms except big brother. Otherwise, if big brother finds out, I will never give you a good time again~." Li Yuan continued shaking the block and made a request.
"Lalu Lalu! (I always listen to my big brother!)" Lalu Lasi's little hands kept chasing the cube, wishing she could grab it and eat it immediately.
"Then we have a deal. Lalulas won't let big brother down, right?"
"Lalu Lalu! (Lalu Lalu means what it says, and we'll never change our minds for a hundred years!)"
Lalulas quickly stretched out his little finger and hooked it around his big brother's finger, signing the contract as if afraid that his big brother would go back on his word.
"Then big brother will believe you. This is a reward for good children. As long as you keep behaving weirdly, big brother will give you treats often in the future~." Li Yuan was satisfied and gave the life cube to Lalulas.
Lalulas nodded repeatedly, took the cube and put it into his mouth impatiently, then fell limp in his big brother's arms with happiness~.
Only then did Li Yuan cast a look of approval at Gardevoir, as if to say that his way of education was more effective~?
Gardevoir's face darkened.
Is your teaching method useful?
You are clearly using your money to your advantage. Do I need you to tell me that I can come up with these blocks?
Chapter 48: Gardevoir is moved...
"What do you think, Gardevoir? I told you that there's something wrong with your educational method. The best way to make a child obedient is to gain her trust first." Li Yuan said with a proud look on his face.
"It's ridiculous. I am Ralts' biological mother. There is a natural trust between us. Why do I need your method of relying on external forces?" Gardevoir was obviously still a little dissatisfied.
Seeing her daughter being so obedient in another man's arms would not only not make her happy, but would only make her upset.
"You are wrong. It is true that there is a natural trust between mother and daughter, but you have overlooked a bigger problem between them." Seeing that Gardevoir still had such an unyielding attitude, Li Yuan's expression became stern.
"What do you want to say?" Gardevoir frowned.
"In fact, the relationship between mother and daughter is inherently contradictory. As a mother, you naturally want to control your daughter and hope that she can develop according to the path you set. You don't want to see anything happen to your daughter that is beyond your control. Am I right?" Li Yuan directly applied the same set of principles that most parents use on their children to Gardevoir.
As a conservative mother, Gardevoir is probably like most Chinese parents, right?
You can't say she doesn't love her daughter, you can only say that her love suffocates her daughter.
"Isn't this right? I have grown to my current strength after taking many detours and figuring out many ways. I can't just watch my daughter go through the same detours again, right?" Gardevoir frowned even deeper.
She actually wanted to refute Li Yuan's words. She was not the kind of mother who had a strong desire for control.
