Hualian having a baby except she turns out to be the darling of heavenly realm and ghost realm
Xie Lian holding the baby proudly: I've decided on a nickname.
Xie Lian smiling gently: Little Sticky Bun.
Pei Ming laughing: That is the least intimidating thing I've ever heard.
Qi Rong wheezing: STICKY BUN? HA—
Hua Cheng very calm: Anyone who laughs dies.
Ghost City instantly silent.
Baby grabs Hua Cheng's hair.
Hua Cheng, snuggles into the baby: Except you. You can mock me forever.
Pei Ming holding the baby like he's presenting a war trophy.
Pei Ming: This child clearly prefers me. Look at that grip strength. Future general.
Feng Xin: She's pulling your hair.
Mu Qing from the corner: She's trying to escape.
Random Ghost: We prepared a tiny black robe with silver butterflies.
Yin Yu: And matching boots.
Ghost 2 whispering emotionally: For Little Sticky Bun's future.
Hua Cheng: Don't call her that outside the house.
Ghost 2: Understood. Young Madam Sticky Bun.
He Xuan silently hands the baby a gold coin the size of their head.
Xie Lian: That's too much.
He Xuan: It's pocket change.
Hua Cheng in the background, smug: See? Financially responsible community.
Qi Rong: MOVE. I brought fireworks.
Qi Rong: She needs stimulation!
Baby starts laughing at the chaos.
Qi Rong: See? She loves uncle Qi Rong the most.
Hua Cheng: Touch one hair wrong and I will bury you under Ghost City.
Qi Rong: I said love, not custody.
Pei Ming holding the baby up: General Sticky Bun.
Feng Xin: Stop encouraging this.
Mu Qing: It sounds like a dessert.
Baby throws up on Mu Qing.
Pei Ming: she has chosen her enemy.
Feng Xin holding the baby like it's an explosive device.
Feng Xin: Why is she staring at me?
Mu Qing: Because you're tense.
Feng Xin: I am not tense.
Pei Ming: You breathed wrong.
Pei Ming arrives with a golden cradle.
Ghost City responds with an entire wing renovated.
Pei Ming: That's excessive.
Yin Yu: We are reasonable people.
He Xuan drops another box of jewels.
Ghost 3 whispering: Heaven is financially unstable compared to us.
Mu Qing trying to teach baby manners.
Feng Xin: Today I will make her laugh.
Qi Rong trips over nothing in the background and crashes into a table.
Baby laughs hysterically.
Feng Xin: I hate this family.
Ghost Residents gathered like cult members.
Ghost 1: We bought her a miniature throne.
Ghost 2: And a private treasury.
Ghost 3 whispering emotionally: We've already set aside inheritance.
Collective thought: Heaven can't compete.
Xie Lian: San Lang… are we… raising a tyrant?
Hua Cheng watching the baby grab a ruby and refuse to let go: Our child has standards.
Heaven officials show up with silk robes.
Ghost City presents an entire palace wing.
Pei Ming: We gave her blessings of prosperity.
Yin Yu: We gave her actual prosperity.
He Xuan places another chest of gold down without a word.
Ghost City residents collectively tear up.
Ghost 1 whispering: We won.
Baby toddles toward Hua Cheng.
Before they hit the floor—
Ten heavenly officials dive
Fifteen ghosts summon instantly
He Xuan appears from nowhere
Feng Xin crashes into Pei Ming
Mu Qing yells at everyone
Hua Cheng calmly catches the baby with one hand.
Hua Cheng: See? Perfectly safe environment.
Ghost City residents quietly celebrating.
Ghost 2: She wore the black silk today.
Ghost 3 crying: She drooled on it. It's an honor.
Yin Yu wiping nonexistent tears: We have achieved something greater than revenge.
Heavenly officials meeting.
Pei Ming: Tomorrow I'm bringing a phoenix.
Feng Xin: That's excessive.
Baby asleep between Xie Lian and Hua Cheng.
Surrounded by gold, silk, weapons, spiritual charms, and a suspicious amount of jewels.
Xie Lian softly: We should teach her humility.
Hua Cheng: Of course, gege.
Baby in sleep gripping a diamond.
Hua Cheng: Starting next week.
