Chapter 3 The prison has been closed

The Lou couple knew their son's stubbornness well, and they knew that taking a tough approach would only make things worse. With no other options, they looked at each other and, after a moment of hesitation, asked Gu Dong, "Dongdong, would you like to come and live with us at the Lou's?" This was their way of asking to adopt Gu Dong.

After saying this, the Lou couple looked at Gu Dong with sincere and eager eyes, waiting for her decision.

Gu Dong blinked her eyes in distress, her cute little face wrinkled tightly. Her mind was still struggling to comprehend everything she had seen on the way from the train station to the police station.She had seen too many strange things, such as long queues of metal boxes moving freely on the road, towering buildings that seemed to reach the clouds, and people wearing colorful clothes. All of this made Gu Dong wonder if she had been tricked by bad people and fallen into some strange illusion.

The world seemed to be very different from before. Not only was the spiritual energy muchthinner, but the writing also seemed to have undergone earth-shattering changes. The characters Gu Dong saw on the road looked like they were missing arms and legs. She could guess the meaning of some of them, but there were others that she couldn't even read.

This made Gu Dong feel a little down. She used to be a well-read dragon lady who knew about astronomy and geography, but now she had become illiterate and couldn't even recognize a single character. It was embarrassing.

Ying.

Gu Dong pouted and sniffled. The merit golden light on her body would attract all kinds of monsters and evil spirits, but her strength had only recovered to about thirty percent, and now she looked like a five-year-old child with short armsand legs. If she had to escape, she might not be able to run away. If she got eaten...

Just thinking about it made Gu Dong shiver. Fortunately, the couple from the Lou family gave her a lifeline.

"I'm willing," Gu Dong replied in a childish voice.

Life was more important than face.

She would stay with the Lou family for a while, until her strength was fully restored, and before leaving, she would definitely give a thick gift to this kind-hearted couple and bless them with a safe and smooth life. As for her identity as a dragon...

It was better not to say anything.Gu Dong was afraid of scaring people. When she appeared in front of humans in her true dragon form before, she found that the look in their eyes was not just awe, but also fear.

After hearing Gu Dong's answer, the faces of the Lou family parents relaxed. Lou's mother reached out and hugged Gu Dong's small body, gently saying, "Don't be afraid. After we complete the adoption procedures, we will be your family."

"Do you want to call us Mom and Dad?" Lou's mother's embrace was warm and even carried a hint of a mother's unique tenderness. After being hugged, Gu Dong's eyes widened like a small deer, and her heart beat faster.

Is this the scent of mother?

Gu Dong buried her round little face in Lou Mu'sarms, taking a deep breath. Her long and thick eyelashes fluttered in the breeze, and a mist of water vapor appeared in her eyes. After a moment, she whispered, "Mom, Dad."

Gu Dong's voice was as thin as a mosquito.

Her face turned red instantly. Her short little hands couldn't stop rubbing her clothes corner, looking shy and nervous, but underneath it all, there was a hint of expectation.

By the way.

It is said that there is a saying in the mortal world that the elderly bow to the young and there is a risk of shortening their lifespan. I don't know if my previous actions will cause Mom and Dad to shorten their lifespan.Gu Dong's face was stern and ready.

No.

In the future, she still needs to share more of her merit with Mom and Dad.

They must live a long and healthy life.

Lou Mu gently pinched the little girl's reddish earlobe and easily held her in her arms, saying, "Dong Dong, let's go home now. There are four older brothers at home. You are the only sister. They will definitely like you and spoil you."

As soon as she said this, Lou Yan, who had been stubbornly silent, looked over with a cold expression on his face. He melted the coldness and, with a mature and restrained, slightly cool look, emphasized, "I am also a big brother.""Yes, yes, that's right. If we count it, Dong Dong has five older brothers. If the five older brothers bully you, remember to tell Mom. Mom will personally teach them a lesson, okay?"

Mrs. Lou reached out her clean fingers and smoothed Gu Dong's hair. She had always wanted a daughter. Her five sons each had their own stubborn temperaments and refused to wear the little dresses she bought for them, which disappointed her greatly. Now that she had Dong Dong, she could dress up the little girl and send her off to school looking pretty.

More importantly, Lou Yan seemed to like Dong Dong very much. As parents, they didn't want to separate the two children.

Gu Dong felt awkward and her cheeks turned red. She felt a hint of kindness, which made her feel a little overwhelmed. Facing the gaze of the Lou couple, Gu Dong trembled like a nervous little rabbit, blinked her watery eyes, and stuttered after a moment:

"I, I will also protect my brothers."

Mrs. Lou lowered her head and rubbed Gu Dong's soft little face. She lowered her voice and spoke in a tone that was meant to coax a child, "Then Dong Dong should eat more and grow taller when she gets home. When Dong Dong grows up, she can protect her brothers!"

Gu Dong nodded heavily.

The Lou couple had come in their own car, so they each picked up Gu Dong and Lou Yan and walked towards the parking lot. Mrs. Lou put Gu Dong in the back seat of the car and fastened her seatbelt. Lou Yan obediently sat next to her and stubbornly held Gu Dong's thin little hand with his own small hand.

With her hands free, Mrs. Lou first sent a message to the family group chat that they had found Lou Yan, and then dropped a bombshell:

"I also adopted a beautiful little human girl!"

"You brothers should put away everything that shouldn't be seen in the house and not transform into your original forms at home. Don't scare Dong Dong, or I'll pull out the fur on your tails!"

"Also, remember to bring a gift when you meet them!"

In fact, the Lou family are also part of the demon race!Over the past few thousand years, as modern society has expanded and the demon race's territory has become smaller, the spiritual energy in the mountains has slowly become scarce. As a result, the hiding demon race had no choice but to enter human society and begin to suppress their demon energy and live among humans.

The demon race living in human society are monitored by the Demon Management Bureau,and they are not allowed to reveal their demon features in front of humans or misuse their powers to cause accidents.

The Lou couple's several sons are also part of the demon race, but due to a previous incident, all of their sons except for the eldest have impure bloodlines. The flaws in their bloodline have caused them great pain and torment, resulting in their peculiar personalities.

The youngest son is weak and sickly, and cannot even transform into his demon form. Therefore, for all these years, the Lou family has raised Lou Yan as an ordinary child, planning to tell him about the demon race when he grows up.

In fact, there was no need for Lou's mother to remind them, as everything related to the demon race in the house was well hidden.For the sake of each other, Gu Dong and Lou's mother silently agreed to conceal their non-human identities, missing the best opportunity to be honest with each other and resulting in many awkward situations.

"My five sons are named Lou Jiao, Lou Jin, Lou Mo, Lou Ye, and Lou Yan. The second son, Lou Jin, has his own company and rarely comes home due to his busy work schedule. Lou Mo is a popular online anchor and is currently resting at home. You can meet him when you go back," Lou's mother briefly introduced the situation of her sons at home.

"The fourth son, Lou Ye, is currently in high school and lives in the school dormitory. He comes home once a week. As for little Yan, who is only a few months younger than you, you can go tokindergarten together in the future."

Listening to Lou's mother's introduction, Gu Dong did not hear about Lou Jiao's job. She looked up at Lou's mother with her slightly round deer eyes and spoke in a soft and sweet voice, like a cotton candy:

"What does the eldest brother do?"

Lou's mother fell silent for a moment upon hearing this.

After a moment of silence, she said softly, "Your eldest brother has been sent to prison."

Gu Dong was stunned.

She never expected her eldest brother to be sent to prison. Wasn't she poking at her mother's sorespot with her words earlier? Gu Dong anxiously knocked her little head with her small fist, thinking about how to comfort her mother. Should she say, "He should reform and strive to get out of prison early?" No, that won't do. What if it makes her mother even sadder?

Lou Mu looked at Gu Dong's almost knotted eyebrows and her particularly serious and tangled little face, suddenly burst out laughing with a "puchi" sound. She pinched Gu Dong's cheek and explained the reason for her laughter with a smile, "Dong Dong, are you thinking too much? Your eldest brother, he..."
