Senior Sister Went Mad After My Fake Death Chapter 77

Ever since her mother and her other mother returned, Tianli had become much more well-behaved.
To be precise, it was after she saw a change in Han Xiao’s demeanor and took the initiative to provoke her a little.
Thinking back on it, it was truly a tear-jerkingly frustrating affair:
Tianli had asked them where they were going.
Jiang Chunai had replied, “To find an elder from the Bright Snow Sect and see if she can rebuild your other mother’s spiritual platform.”
Tianli’s eyes had darted around. She sized up her other mother, then moved closer and asked with a doubtful tone, “For real? How come I don’t feel like she’s changed at all?”
From across a table, Tianli had unscrupulously leaned close to Han Xiao—so close she could almost touch her long, thick eyelashes.
In all the time Tianli had been growing up, her memory of her other mother was more like that of a gentle, fragile, and cold but sickly beauty who often stayed in the kitchen, only able to do the things mortals did.
By that logic, when ranking the family by strength, she, Tianli, would be second! Although she didn’t show it on her face, Tianli couldn’t help but feel a little smug whenever she thought about it.
Oh, Mother, dear Mother~
And her other mother had never really cared about her pride and arrogance, so Tianli tried the same trick again. But just as she was about to touch Han Xiao, she suffered a terror she never wanted to experience again in her life!
Han Xiao’s eyelashes fluttered, and then she struck out cleanly, lifting Tianli up by the soft scruff of her neck, like a spring duckling.
Effortlessly. Easily.
“Waaah! Mother!” Tianli turned pale with fright. She saw her usually cold and sickly beautiful mother staring at her quietly, and she became deeply aware that her mother might truly be sick in the head. On the verge of tears, she turned towards the door: “MOM!!”
She had to find her mother.
Hearing this, Han Xiao said coolly, “She’s not here. She went out.”
How could her mother have gone out in just an instant!
A soft, cool palm pressed against the back of her neck. Tianli trembled, her eyes welling with tears as she asked, “Mother, what are you going to do?”
Han Xiao eyed her and said with extreme nonchalance, “Nothing much.”
The moment she finished speaking, Tianli, who was still being held by the scruff of her neck, changed back into her original snake form.
And Han Xiao, the mother she thought she could bully—ah, no, “accompany”—was now pinching her at her seven-inch vital point.
Snake-form Tianli:…!!!!!
This time, she would never dare again.
T^T So what my friends told me about my other mother being a Demon King in the past is true. She’s so scary.
Mother, please, can’t we talk this out? Please don’t pinch there! Why don’t you just hold me by the scruff of my neck again? At least that part is soft! QAQ!!!
The standoff between mother and daughter ended quickly.
When Jiang Chunai came in the door, she saw Tianli rubbing her neck nonstop. She had been rubbing it for a long time, and it was all red.
“What’s wrong?” Jiang Chunai walked in slowly, looking at Tianli’s neck. “It’s red? What happened?”
Tianli had wanted to grab her mother’s sleeve and have a good cry, but she met Han Xiao’s gaze from across the table. The words on the tip of her tongue changed to, “Nothing, just… just a little bug bit me, and it turned like this.”
“And you rubbed it red?” Jiang Chunai asked.
Tianli nodded for dear life. “Yes, yes, then I rubbed it red…”
Jiang Chunai accepted this and nodded as well.
That seemed normal enough. Oh, she just didn’t understand why her daughter’s eyes kept darting towards Han Xiao.
What’s so interesting to look at about Han Xiao…?
Of course, that was because she had already seen everything.
In a little while, she would have to find a way to send her daughter out. She needed to discuss with Han Xiao what gifts they should each get for their daughters for the upcoming festival.
