"Eat, have you finished eating?!"

The woman was stunned.

Obviously the last moment it was a complete cream cake without strawberries.

But in the blink of an eye, all that's left is an empty plate?!

The woman was surprised and confused.

Obviously in her impression... Xiaochi is about the same size as an ordinary puppy. Is its mouth big enough to fit a whole cake?

…

"Hiss~"

The young man rubbed the area on his cheek that he had just pulled. You could vaguely see red marks, which showed that he had been quite heavy-handed just now.

The young man's eyes were a little straight.

The unchanged empty plate in front of him told him that he was not wrong.

Even though he had already been a little numb watching strawberries disappear one after another.

However, the shock of a strawberry disappearing is different from that of a whole cake.

This scene once again told him that there was indeed a creature on the table that he could not see, which was the Xiaochi his mother called him.

"...a monster?"

The young man muttered to himself.

…

"What?"

The woman who vaguely heard what Han Rui said, but didn't hear clearly, turned to look at her son.

"mom."

The boy also looked at his mother, "Xiao Chi...is she a monster?"

After truly accepting the true existence of the other party from his heart and weakening some of the vague fear in his mind, the young man immediately made a subconscious guess about Xiao Chi's identity.

Aren't the creatures that can only be seen by so-called people with spiritual powers called monsters?

Isn’t that what is written in novels?

…

"monster?"

The woman laughed horrifiedly, "You kid, how could you think so? Xiaochi is not -"

monster?

Her voice stopped suddenly.

So, what is Xiaochi?

She looked suddenly startled.

hedgehog?

She had always thought so before.

Mutated red hedgehog.

However, because others could not see Xiao Chi, it was very convenient for her to secretly raise Xiao Chi. After a moment of shock, she only felt happy and subconsciously ignored the weirdness.

Yes, how could Xiaochi be a hedgehog?

At least...not an ordinary hedgehog.

Otherwise, why can't others see it?

...

Not knowing what she was thinking of, the woman suddenly laughed in a low voice.

"mom?"

The young man's face was full of doubts.

"ah."

Seeing some worry in her son's eyes, the woman waved her hand and said, "I'm fine."

"I just suddenly thought of some things from the past."

"do you know?"

"My mother always thought that Xiaochi was a gift specially given to her by God."

"So only mom can see it."

"Xiao Chi is an existence that belongs to her mother, similar to a special elf or a guardian beast."

"Isn't that childish?"

The woman pursed her lips in embarrassment.

...

"……Won't."

The young man twitched his lips and smiled stiffly.

He felt that his mother's heart was really big enough, and she didn't pay any attention to Xiao Chi's obvious specialness.

Also, exclusive elves, guardian beasts, etc. are indeed ideas only girls have.

...

"So, my mother never thought that Xiaochi was a monster."

The woman's eyes were a little dazed, "But after you said that..."

She paused suddenly when her wandering eyes fell on Xiao Xiao.

She almost forgot that there was anyone else in the house besides mother and son.

Thinking of what she just said, she smiled sheepishly, "I'm sorry, Mr. Xiao, for making you laugh."

Mainly, there are too many things happening today.

She was a little overwhelmed with her son's affairs and Xiaochi's affairs.

...

"By the way, Mr. Xiao."

Thinking of her son's question just now, the woman looked at the rather mysterious Mr. Xiao with a bit of hesitation.

She knew that if anyone could answer this question, it would be Mr. Xiao in front of her.

Although she felt a little awkward asking this question so seriously.

However, she finally asked.

"Xiao Chi...is it a monster?"

...

"yes."

Xiao Xiao gave an affirmative answer simply.

The woman in front of me was not an unrelated person, she had been getting along with Yan Ru for a long time.

However, their fate probably ended after the woman left without saying goodbye.

Even though Yan Ru later found a woman and wanted to return to the relationship he had before, it was just a delusion after all.

...

"it turns out......"

The woman whispered, but fell into silence after saying two words, "...no wonder."

It took a long time before she murmured again with a hint of surprise and confusion.

No wonder Xiao Chi looks so strange.

No wonder, ordinary people can't see Xiaochi.

No wonder…

Xiaochi can make her sick all the time.

...

The woman's eyes were somewhat complicated and vaguely defensive.

How can such an ability to silently affect people's physical conditions not make people feel jealous, even...fearful?
