Chapter 40: 038 Jumping Clown Chapter 40: 038 Jumping Clown Fang Jintang could see that although Fang ngyao said she “knew she was wrong,” she didn’t really think so in her heart. Out of consideration for Qiu Yiming being present, he didn’t want to make the scene ugly and be the butt of jokes, so he simply stated, “Let’s all sit down first, and Yiming, if you have sothing to say, go ahead.”
Fang ngyao breathed a sigh of relief, thinking the matter was over, and stopped speaking, settling on the sofa. Qiu Yiming looked around and, finding no other spots available but next to Fang ngyao, reluctantly sat down.
He deliberately avoided looking at Bai Qianqian, ignoring his presence, then said, “Uncle, Aunt, Yu Yang, and Xinxin, you must be aware of the situation outside, right? I won’t say much more, but after the teor shower last night, many people’s bodies mutated. Most of them turned into zombies, and a subset awakened superpowers. I ca today to ask if any of you have felt any changes in your body?”
The Fang Family was prepared for this question since they had guessed Qiu Yiming would ask it as soon as he appeared; thus, they were not surprised but rather very composed. Fang Yuyang smiled slightly, stretched out his right hand, and gathered a tiny tornado in his palm, asking, “Is this what you an by superpower? When I woke up today, I indeed felt sothing off with my body, and after a few tries, I discovered this.”
Qiu Yiming’s eyes lit up upon seeing this. He hadn’t expected Fang Yuyang to have awakened the Wind Superpower, which was a pleasant surprise. Then, he couldn’t help but look towards Fang Yuxin with so anticipation, asking her, “Xinxin, have you awakened any superpowers?”
Fang Yuxin was prepared; once Qiu Yiming asked, she picked up a small potted plant beside her and touched the adorable ceramic pot. It was a mimosa, which upon her touch, visibly sprouted tender buds, grew new leaves, and even blood small pink flowers.
Qiu Yiming beca excited upon seeing this, “That’s great! Xinxin, you’ve actually awakened the rare Wood Elent Superpower!” Although it was only the first day of the apocalypse, he had already encountered various superpower users; to his knowledge, among the awakened, Enhancent System users were the most common, while Nature Elent users were rarer, with Wood Elent users being even scarcer.
Fang Yuxin smiled without saying much; the Wood Elent Superpower was indeed rare, but in actuality, there were even rarer Special Elent users, such as the Spiritual, Spatial, and Ti Systems. Among them, Spatial and Ti System users were the most extraordinary, and for this reason, their numbers were incredibly few, almost to the point of being legendary.
Fang ngyao hadn’t expected Fang Yuxin and Fang Yuyang to be so fortunate as to both awaken superpowers, and to be of Wood and Wind Elents at that! Although the Wood Elent’s attack power was diocre, it possessed healing abilities, while Fang Yuyang’s Wind Elent was clearly one of strong attack power.
She inwardly lanted that it was a pity they hadn’t managed to get the Fang Family to take the Suppressant earlier, otherwise how could Fang Yuxin have awakened the rare Wood Elent Superpower and impressed Qiu Yiming so?
Seeing Qiu Yiming gaze at Fang Yuxin tenderly, she grew anxious. She had thought that once Fang Yuxin had a son, Qiu Yiming would give up, but he still seed fixated on Fang Yuxin. Was the Wood Elent Superpower really sothing to boast about? Her ga-leveling system was far more powerful than any superpower!
Still, Fang ngyao wasn’t foolish; she knew that the ga system must not be revealed, at least not for now. So, she thought for a mont and then said, “Actually, I’ve also awakened a superpower.”
With that statent, she finally captured Qiu Yiming’s attention. Noticing his curious gaze, she took the mimosa plant, stored it in her ga inventory in front of everyone, and then took it out again, stating, “After waking up, I found a personal space of one hundred cubic ters. I can store things in it. I guess this must be a Space Superpower.”
Originally, she had no intention of revealing that she possessed a Personal Space superpower, but to bring down Qiu Yiming, she had no other choice. She wanted Qiu Yiming to know that although Fang Yuxin’s Wood Elent Superpower was rare, she possessed an even rarer and more formidable Space superpower! She couldn’t believe that Qiu Yiming would remain unmoved!
As expected, as soon as she spoke these words, Qiu Yiming’s expression changed, and his gaze toward her beca intensely passionate. Fang ngyao secretly delighted in this, only to realize that not just Qiu Yiming, but the Fang Family mbers were also looking at her differently.
Fang Jintang looked at Fang ngyao with disappointnt, almost wanting to scold her for being “foolish”! A Space superpower, was that sothing to be casually ntioned in front of outsiders? Did she have no heart at all? Had she not considered the consequences of her words?
Seeing his displeased expression, Fang ngyao couldn’t help but say, “Dad, why are you looking at like that? Aren’t you happy that I’ve awakened a superpower?”
Qu Qianhe, having seen her repeatedly provoke Fang Jintang, finally could no longer bear it, and spoke out in displeasure, “Xiao Yao, is this the way you speak to your father?”
Fang ngyao grew even more discontented, “It’s clearly Dad who’s biased. Why is it my fault in the end? Because I’m an illegitimate daughter, none of you like , right? It’s not like I chose to be an illegitimate daughter, but I was born this way. Can you bla ? Ever since I was born, I’ve had to endure disdain and contempt, you’ve never shown a kind face, and everything I do is wrong. Why should it be this way?”
The more she spoke, the more heartbroken she beca, seizing this chance to vent out all her frustrations. Seeing the unpleasant expressions on Fang Jintang and Qu Qianhe’s faces, she felt no fear, but instead a rush of triumph, a sweet satisfaction of revenge.
Fang Yuyang and Fang Yuxin, watching this scene, felt an increased loathing for Fang ngyao. They were just about to speak when Qu Qianhe spoke up first, saying, “So that’s what you think.”
Her gaze made Fang ngyao sowhat uneasy. After a mont, she scoffed, “Am I wrong? Or are you just too cowardly to admit it?”
Suddenly, Qu Qianhe laughed, looking at Fang ngyao as if she were watching a pathetic clown. She said, “There’s sothing your mother might not have told you, originally, I wasn’t planning on letting you know, but since you think this way, why should I keep it a secret any longer?” She paused, then said to Fang Yuxin, “Xinxin, you take Qianqian back to the room first, it’s getting late, and he needs to rest.”
Fang Yuxin, understanding she didn’t want Bai Qianqian to hear what was to follow, nodded and led Bai Qianqian upstairs. Qiu Yiming, watching their departing figures, furrowed his brows more tightly. He guessed that what Qu Qianhe was about to reveal might concern Fang ngyao’s origins. As an outsider, it was indeed awkward for him to stay, so he simply said, “Uncle, Aunt, I have sothing to say to Xinxin. I’ll head up first.”

PS: When watching certain TV shows, there’s always a protagonist, or a villain, who when questioned and unable to respond, starts to create chaos and bla others, while the person asking the questions can’t do anything about it, watching helplessly, which is quite frustrating. Hence, you have the storyline above.
