“If you go now, no matter how you slice it, her three children will still call you their uncle. From a moral perspective, if we ignore them completely, we’ll become known as the bad guys here! That’s why we should just feign ignorance,” Madam Guo said without batting an eyelid.
Qi Yuancheng was in full agreement. “You’re right, absolutely.” In that case, they should keep this from their parents for now.

Not long after Qi Qingyao started brewing the chicken soup, the intense aroma of chicken soup wafted through the house. It smelled so good that the triplets jumped out of bed excitedly and ran outside without even putting on their clothes, all so they could take off the cover and look into the pot.
Qi Qingyao, who was trying to clean up the house, stopped them.
“Don’t run out without putting on your clothes first. It’s cold out, the last thing we want is for you to fall sick.”
The three toddlers obediently let their mother dress them in cotton clothes before they finally ran to the oven. They stretched their necks, not brave enough to take off the lid. They just tried to inhale as much of the chicken soup vapor coming from the pot’s edges as they could.
“So that’s what chicken soup smells like.” Dabao stared at the stove until his eyes were about to fall out.
“Have you never had any before?” Qi Qingyao looked at the triplets, asking them with some pity.
The silly triplets just turned to look at her, their eyes pitifully teary.
As their tears were about to fall, Erniu was the first to wipe them away. She hugged Qi Qingyao’s leg, her voice blurry with tears. “Grandfather shaid, we’re b*shtards so we have no right to drink chicken soup.”
Dabao and Xiaobao pressed their lips together too, but they held back their tears and refused to let themselves cry.
Qi Qingyao looked at the adorable children and wiped away the tears pooling in their eyes, trying to calm them down.
“From now on, as long as I have a bite to eat, so will you! We’ll do our best to have meat and fish every meal, drinking chicken and fish soup every time!”
Xiaobao was the fastest to recover from his emotions. He immediately leaped up and said, “Yay! You’re the best, Mommy!”
Dabao patted Erniu’s head, consoling his sister.
Erniu rubbed her red eyes and puffed up her cheeks, her small hand holding onto Qi Qingyao’s tightly.
Qi Qingyao led the three of them into the house and put them on the bed again before continuing to clean up the place.
The three children were stunned.
They had no idea that this little hut could become so clean with some cleaning!
M-Mommy really had changed this time!
Qi Qingyao tidied up their little “shack” before going out to check on the pot. Once she was sure the chicken soup was done, she grabbed a few small ceramic bowls with chips on them.
A moment later, Qi Qingyao brought the bowls of chicken soup into the house on a wooden tea tray.
The children instantly surrounded her.
Each of them held a small bowl, staring at the chicken soup inside adorably. They sniffed and smelled it, like little animal cubs. They wanted to drink it, but they were also worried that they would scald themselves, so they simply held onto the bowls for a while to warm up their tiny hands. Once they were sure it was drinkable, they carefully began to drink the soup.
Qi Qingyao looked at their faces. They looked like her original host. She had to admit that while the host was a half-wit, she was also truly beautiful. If she really was part of the Qi family, she had to be a genetic anomaly!
These children had perfectly inherited the host’s wonderful looks too.
Even at this age, they were nothing but adorable.
At the same time, there were downsides to how they looked exactly like the host… because there was no way to tell who their father was by looking at them! That made things awkward.
Qi Qingyao saw that the children had finished the chicken soup in one go, so she asked them, “How’s it taste?”
“It’s soooo good!” Erniu licked the bowl, looking like a hungry cat. She smiled wide, her brows arching and her tone innocent.
