Chapter 63: Chapter 63: Hello Fellow Senior Brothers
Cheng Guodong and Tao Shen each held one of Tao Ti’s hands, seemingly ready to start a tug of war right there to see whom Tao Ti truly belonged to.
In her dreams, Tao Ti had learned new abilities; she could not only see others’ Luck but also gauge their fondness for her.
If someone had a high regard for her, she could see a flower above their head.
If the affection was strong, several flowers would bloom simultaneously.
Tao Ti could see that both Cheng Guodong and Tao Shen had flowers above their heads, clearly indicating their genuine fondness for her.
Tao Ti knew her elder brother treated her as his sworn brother and benefactor, which explained his sincere affection for her, but she couldn’t quite understand why Tao Shen also felt such strong fondness towards her, his head full of countless little flowers.
Tao Shen, leading the way, said with a smile, “Little Taotie, if you’re tired, I can carry you.”
Tao Ti shook her head. “Not tired.”
Having grown up in the mountains, she was used to running around on the rugged terrain; a bit of mountain road was nothing to her.
Tao Shen gave her a thumbs up. “Awesome!”
Yet, his heart felt somewhat bittersweet; his little sister had endured quite a bit of hardship!
If it had been the sister from before, she would have already been crying and screaming to be carried, unwilling to walk even a step.
Cheng Guodong was highly displeased with Tao Shen, feeling threatened, always having the intense sensation that this man was here to steal his sister away.

An hour later, they finally reached the accommodation area on the back mountain.
There were rows of houses, just like those seen in ancient costume dramas, constructed with mortise and tenon joints, and featured red bricks and blue tiles.
“You’ve arrived!” Tao Bin, as joyful as a playful Husky, spotted them from afar and sprinted towards them.
Tao Shen facepalmed, having reminded this kid countless times to act more composed around his sister to give her a sense of reliability, but he just couldn’t remember!
The ten-year-old boy, entirely too lively, circled Tao Ti. “Sister, you are so cute, even cuter than in the pictures. Your eyes are so bright, like stars in the sky! Did you walk all this way by yourself? You’re truly excellent, you can endure hardship, that’s amazing!”
Through Tao Ti’s eyes, this slightly sunburned, big-eyed older brother had his head covered with red blossoms fluttering in the wind like they were dancing excitedly.
“Enough!” Tao Shen grabbed his annoyingly boisterous younger brother like grabbing a Husky, and shouted, “Can you shut up? You’re driving me crazy!”
Tao Bin retorted, “Can’t I praise my sister?”
Bald Senior Brother, Flat-headed Senior Brother, and Comb Senior Brother, all sporting bangs, approached leisurely. Behind them followed a little boy—none other than Hua Jinyan.
The current Hua Jinyan, now seven years old, looked much younger, about four or five years old, due to the constant disturbance from Ghost and poor sleep.
Bald Senior Brother introduced himself, “My name is Chen Guang, everyone calls me Bald Senior Brother.”
Flat-headed Senior Brother introduced himself, “My name is Shi Lei, I like buzz cuts, have always kept this hairstyle, so they like to call me Flat-headed Senior Brother.”
Comb Senior Brother tucked away his little comb and pulled out a beautiful pink comb from his bag, handing it over as a gift, “This is a meeting gift, my name is Liu Chuanfeng, everyone calls me Comb Senior Brother.”
Tao Ti accepted the comb, “Thank you, Comb Senior Brother!”
“Hello Bald Senior Brother, hello Flat-headed Senior Brother, hello Comb Senior Brother, my name is Tao Ti, you can call me Little Taotie. My brother said I can stay here for a month to experience the life at Shaolin Temple and also learn Martial Arts from you.”
