The Two Hundred and Eighty Pound Fat Girl and Her Five Husbands C.311: Moment of Growing Up

Gu Shan's words made the little boy's body stiffen. He turned his body and looked down at his feet.

It was blank, without a shadow.

He turned his head back to look at Gu Shan. Although his current body was a faint silhouette, he still had a faint shadow.

He looked at that faint shadow with envy!

"You don't need to envy me. We Nightmare Demons were originally detested by The Way of Heaven. For us living in the darkness, chasing after the children of destiny of this realm is our instinct.

But who could have imagined that we repulsive Nightmare Demons would one day have our hearts moved?

Once our hearts are moved, we must relentlessly pursue our beloved. If we fail, we will forever disappear from this realm.

Fortunately, we succeeded. Zaozao doesn't dislike us, and even gladly accepted us.

Just like earlier, when she, as the child of destiny of this realm, sensed a different aura from yours as a Nightmare Demon, she never showed the slightest rejection from start to finish."

Gu Shan's words softened the little boy's cold expression considerably.

Indeed! As a Nightmare Demon, he had lingered in this world for one thousand three hundred years, waiting for his beloved.

And his beloved, the child of destiny of this realm, had remained in this world for a thousand years due to his perseverance.

She willingly slept in the Moonlight Flower Tree for a thousand years, just to offset the evil that he, as a Nightmare Demon, was born with.

Han Country, as a nation, could only exist in this world for over a thousand years because of Zaozao's protection, preventing more demons from wreaking havoc in the mortal realm. Otherwise, Han Country's people would have all perished in this drought.

The only ones left would be demons, and Nightmare Demons like him.

"When will you leave?" The little boy raised his eyes and said coldly.

"I'll leave after Zaozao wakes up. Remember, you must protect Zaozao well as a Dark Guard, and don't let that damned demoniac harm her.

Also, you're still a Nightmare Demon now, clashing with Zaozao's destiny. For Zaozao's safety, you'd better not get too close to her."

"Annoying!"

"Don't call me annoying. I risked everything to travel through time and space to get here, other than telling you there's a demoniac around Zaozao, so you can better protect her.

Most importantly, don't interfere too much with her life in this world. If too many changes occur in her destined path in this life, it will harm Zaozao.

In the next life, with Xi Luo's help, that demoniac's destiny has already been ruined to the extreme.

After Zaozao regains her memories of this life, she must use her sacrificial abilities to deal with that demoniac.

Also, before I leave, I'll transfer my memories to you."

Gu Shan walked up to the little boy and placed his hand on his forehead, silently facing him.

"I know everything now. You, get lost!"

The little boy glanced at Gu Shan, then turned and walked into the room.

Gu Shan watched the little boy's departing back, then looked down and stroked his slightly bulging belly.

So what if he dislikes me?

He and I are the same Nightmare Demon. When I stood before my past self, he could clearly sense my intentions.

He did that earlier only because he was afraid something might go wrong.

As long as my self in this life knows what will happen ahead of time, with my abilities, I can better protect Zaozao.

Suppressing his turbulent emotions, when Gu Shan walked back into Lin Zaozao's room, ready to bid her farewell, he was surprised to see the little rice ball the little boy was holding.

With his involvement, Zaozao's life in this world had already changed from the previous one.

After all, in the previous life, when he was lurking around Zaozao as a Nightmare Demon, he never saw her instantly grow from a baby into a three or four-year-old little ball.

But then again, this was the illusion they had painstakingly created. Some changes were to be expected.

"Gu Shan, sister's little husband!"

Gu Shan's eyes shone with barely concealed laughter when the little rice ball called him his sister's husband.

He quickly walked up to Lin Zaozao and gently touched his forehead against hers, then said softly: 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝑒𝔀𝓮𝘣𝘯𝘰𝘷𝑒𝓵.𝒸𝑜𝘮

"Zaozao, this annoying brat is my past self. He and I are the same person.

Now that he has taken my place guarding you, I must leave.

Zaozao, take good care of yourself. Remember, if that thing called the System ever asks you to sacrifice yourself, then find this brat to help you.

He's a Nightmare Demon now, so although he can't completely kill that demoniac, he still has ways to deal with him.

At the very least, he can still stop him from harming you.

And Zaozao, once you regain your memories, you must return. I and the baby in my belly will be waiting for you at Nine Sky Mountain."

After speaking, to Lin Zaozao's astonished gaze, the silhouette of Gu Shan gradually faded away.

In the blink of an eye, he had completely disappeared before her.

Staring at the empty space where Gu Shan had stood, Lin Zaozao turned to the little boy beside her and pointed to the spot, puzzled:

"Where did Gu Shan go?"

"He forcibly came to your side from another realm. Only one person can exist in a single realm at the same time.

As long as I'm here, he can't stay by your side for too long. Otherwise, he and the child in his womb would be wiped out by this realm."

The little boy put Lin Zaozao down, then looked into her eyes with a serious expression:

"You haven't given me a name yet. Name me now."

"Aren't you and Gu Shan the same person? Since he's called Gu Shan, why don't you go by Gu Shan too?"

"No. You give me a new name."

The little boy insisted firmly.

"Then, you'll be called..."

"Call me Husband. From today on, I'll be your Husband."

After saying that, the little boy vanished before Lin Zaozao's eyes.

Watching the little boy disappear within a second, Lin Zaozao repeated the name he had just given himself.

For a moment, his roguish antics almost made her laugh out loud.

"Dear husband, little husband!"

Lin Zaozao teased into the empty space.

The next second, a miniature version of Gu Shan appeared right in front of Lin Zaozao.

"Husband is here, what is it?"

"Ah! Nothing."

Lin Zaozao shook her head repeatedly.

Seeing that Lin Zaozao had nothing to say, the miniature version of Gu Shan disappeared from her sight.

Watching the miniature Gu Shan leave, Lin Zaozao finally heaved a silent sigh of relief, clutching her chest.

She dragged her little shorts along as she slowly walked towards the full-length bronze mirror in the room.

In the mirror, she saw herself, her upper body naked, wearing only a little pair of underwear.

Fortunately, she was now only a three or four-year-old little brat, so even if she ran around with her butt exposed, no one would laugh at her.

But she had been eagerly looking forward to growing up and finally being able to date, and now she had turned into a three or four-year-old little brat again.

This feeling was truly frustrating.

It was as if the game account she had painstakingly leveled up had suddenly turned into a low-level alt.

Oh my! It felt like all her previous efforts had been wasted.

As Lin Zaozao was brooding in front of the bronze mirror, the door was opened from the outside.

Lin Zaozao turned her head and saw a boy about seven or eight years old, along with a slightly younger boy, both staring at her with their mouths agape.

Seeing the two little boys standing stunned at the doorway, Lin Zaozao immediately placed her hands on her hips, tilted her chin up slightly, and said to them in a domineering tone.

"What are you staring at? Haven't you seen a beauty before? You little brats whose body hair hasn't even grown in yet, all you know is to gawk at a beauty."

"Bea... beauty?"

The slightly smaller boy stuttered as he looked at Lin Zaozao standing with her hands on her hips in a pot-belly posture.

"What's the matter? Don't I look like a great beauty?"

Lin Zaozao took a step forward barefoot, tilting her chin up arrogantly.

"That... that... bea... beauty?"

"What now?"

"I wanted to ask, why doesn't this beauty like to wear clothes and runs around naked?"

"Hmm!"

Lin Zaozao lowered her head, looking at herself wearing only a little pair of underwear, practically rolling her eyes up to the sky.

She had gone from being a newborn baby to a three or four-year-old brat after just one nap. The fact that she still had a pair of underwear to cover herself was probably thanks to that heartless System.

Who knows what that rotten System was trying to accomplish by making her grow up so quickly?

Just as Lin Zaozao was pinching her little belly in frustration, her naked little body was covered with a coat.

Looking at the light purple, slightly worn coat on her body, Lin Zaozao raised her head and met a chiseled, jade-like face.

This boy, at only seven or eight years old, already had such an outstanding appearance. If he grew up, how handsome would he become!

As Lin Zaozao was secretly admiring the little handsome boy, the voice of the System that had disappeared earlier suddenly rang clearly in her mind.

[Host, this boy will become the official partner of the number one beauty in this world when he grows up. If you dare to develop feelings for him, the System has the right to punish you.]

[Fuck you, System. I'm only a three or four-year-old little brat right now, and he's only seven or eight years old.

Just because I glanced at him once, how could I develop any feelings for him! Your brain is filled with nothing but shit, System!

You're so feudal-minded every day. Why don't you learn from feudal women and bind your feet?

Oh! I know, you're just a lifeless System without any physical form or feelings.

Since you can't bind your feet, why don't you just bind your tiny brain instead?

A wild System that came out of nowhere, and you really think you're a big deal.]

[Host, you dare to insult the System. Now the System has the right to punish you with electric shocks.]

As soon as the damn System finished speaking, a ferocious electric shock began assaulting Lin Zaozao's every nerve.

In the blink of an eye, the only three or four-year-old Lin Zaozao was trembling and convulsing uncontrollably from the powerful electric shocks.
