After Descending the Mountain, Seven Big Brothers Spoil Me-Chapter 1061: "I’ll Split You, Little Fool!"

Almost as soon as her words fell, Qin Xu appeared, and the cold snap of handcuffs "clinked" as they snapped onto Linda’s wrists.

Linda immediately panicked and feigned anger, shouting, "Who are you? I don’t know you! Let me go!"

Qin Xu looked at her with a mocking smile. "Linda, we’ve been chasing you for so long, and you say you don’t know us?"

Linda gritted her teeth. "You have the wrong person. I’m not Linda."

Zhouzhou, who was standing nearby, was somewhat displeased. "I never get things wrong! It’s her! Second Uncle, take her away!"

She had earned all her money honestly and never just grabbed anyone for no reason.

Qin Xu trusted Zhouzhou’s words and his own judgment. The perfume on her was the same as the one he had smelled in the room earlier.

Without wasting another word, Qin Xu directly pushed her into the car.

After sending Zhouzhou back to the mountain, he left.

Zhouzhou waved her hands excitedly. "Second Uncle, don’t forget to apply for my bonus!"

"Got it, don’t worry," Qin Xu responded, and Zhouzhou immediately cheered up.

Ye Lingfeng, watching her, raised a hand and tapped her on the little head. "Is it really that exciting?"

"Of course!" Zhouzhou nodded vigorously. "The more money I make, the sooner I can change my luck with money!"

This was her life’s greatest pursuit!

Speaking of which, Zhouzhou suddenly remembered something. She hurriedly took out the Ancestral Master’s statue, intending to ask him why they hadn’t received any Merits for catching Brian recently.

Merit settlement had been getting slower and slower.

However, when she pulled out the statue, she discovered that Ancestral Master was not there.

She said, "Huh?" and, with her little chubby hand, did a quick calculation. It dawned on her that Ancestral Master was in the front yard.

She wobbled off on her short legs and hurried there.

There were a lot of pilgrims at the Taoist temple, and the incense was burning stronger than ever. The aroma of the incense swirled and wound its way around the Ancestral Master’s statue in the main hall.

Zhouzhou glanced around and waved at the statue.

Seeing this, Ancestral Master floated out of the statue. "What’s going on?"

As he spoke, he took a deep sniff. It had been a long time since he had inhaled so much incense.

Zhouzhou pointed at herself and asked curiously, "Ancestral Master, why haven’t I received any Merits for catching those bad guys?"

Hearing this, Ancestral Master’s gaze flickered, and he cleared his throat before saying, "I think the Heavenly Dao has been too busy lately and probably just forgot."

Is that so?

Zhouzhou looked up at the sky and called out, "Good Heaven, can you please settle my Merits when you have time?"

Ancestral Master also looked up at the sky, but his eyes were darting around. When he saw the Heavenly Thunder descending toward him, he immediately said, "I’ll go handle something first!"

He hurriedly flew back into the statue in the main hall.

This was his domain—Heavenly Thunder couldn’t touch him here.

Heavenly Thunder sneered as it watched him.

His face was getting thicker and thicker!

Zhouzhou stared at his disappearing figure, blinking in confusion. Why did Ancestral Master look so strange just now?

She wanted to call him out and ask, but Ancestral Master just wouldn’t come out, as he was deeply engrossed in the incense.

With so many pilgrims around, Zhouzhou couldn’t just rush over and drag him out, so she had to leave for now.

But she furrowed her little brows, feeling like something wasn’t quite right.

After thinking for a while, her expression grew resolute.

She hadn’t been mistaken—Ancestral Master was definitely up to something.

Something was off with him!

Zhouzhou took a deep breath. She didn’t pursue him at the moment. She waited until night fell, when all the pilgrims had gone, before sneaking toward the front hall.

By then, the hall that was supposed to be quiet was filled with occasional bursts of laughter.

Zhouzhou quietly approached the door, crouching down, her black eyes peering through a crack in the door.

What she saw made her eyes widen in shock.

Ancestral Master had his shirt open, and his body was glowing with a golden light that almost reached his chest.

Zhouzhou’s eyes went wide with disbelief.

His glow had only reached his stomach before!

Where did Ancestral master get all these Merits? Why hadn’t she received any?

With that thought, Zhouzhou’s jealousy bubbled up, and she pushed the door open, shouting, "Ancestral Master!"

She was really jealous—how could she not be?

They had agreed to share the Merits, so why hadn’t she gotten her share?

Hearing her voice, Ancestral Master jumped in shock and quickly pulled his shirt together, turning around with a strained smile. "Zhouzhou, why aren’t you sleeping yet?"

Zhouzhou puffed out her cheeks and didn’t respond, her eyes fixed on him, her jealousy evident as she ground her teeth. Her face twisted with frustration.

She pouted in a pitiful way. "Ancestral Master, why didn’t I get any this time?"

This had never happened before.

In the past, she had always received something, even if it was just a little bit.

Even if she didn’t do much, she still helped. Just a tiny bit of merit would have been fine.

She was so short, how much Merit could she possibly need?

It was the one time Zhouzhou would admit to being short.

But despite doing so much work, completing so many tasks, the golden light hadn’t even filled her little frame!

Meanwhile, Ancestral Master had almost finished his.

Why?

The more she thought about it, the more wronged she felt. Zhouzhou suddenly sat down on the floor, slapping her thigh and wailing, "Why is my life so miserable?"

The more she thought about it, the more miserable it felt. She couldn’t help but kick her little legs, breaking down in tears as she rolled on the floor, sobbing even louder.

Her cries shattered the peaceful atmosphere of the Taoist temple.

Ancestral Master quickly covered her mouth, saying, "Alright, alright, stop crying."

"I can’t help it!" Zhouzhou sniffled, her tears streaming down her face, truly feeling heartbroken with no trace of pretense. "I worked so hard, just to earn some Merits, why is it so difficult?"

Her sobs were so heartfelt that Ancestral Master’s gaze grew more and more guilty.

Just then, a golden light suddenly flew toward Zhouzhou, with some of it landing on Ye Lingfeng, who had arrived just in time.

Zhouzhou suddenly stopped crying and her eyes widened with astonishment. "What’s happening?"

She looked at Ancestral Master, her eyes shining. "Ancestral Master, did you give me this? You’re the best!"

Ancestral Master’s face darkened.

He wasn’t that generous!

This clearly wasn’t his doing!

The Heavenly Thunder could no longer bear to watch and struck Zhouzhou on the head.

Zhouzhou, caught off guard, didn’t even have time to shield herself, and the smell of burning hair filled the air.

She was startled but didn’t care about the Merits. She immediately touched the golden ingot on her head and, once she confirmed there was no real harm, breathed a sigh of relief.

The Heavenly Thunder had only lightly struck, singeing a few strands of hair. It wasn’t enough to need the golden ingot to block it.

But Zhouzhou still felt wronged, looking at it with a confused expression. "Mr. Thunder, why did you strike me?"

She was such a good person! She hadn’t done anything bad!

Heavenly Thunder glared at her helplessly, thinking, "You idiot!"

Couldn’t she tell that the Merits were meant for her from the beginning?

Ancestral Master had just hidden them!

And yet she was still thanking him, as if she hadn’t been tricked.

What a fool!
