At this moment, compared to the laughing girls in the live stream, Xiao Wu in the task World, due to not having a copy of the diary, was unaware of the situation and did not laugh like the girls in the live stream. Instead, after her initial confusion, she subconsciously asked, "Isn't 'Qinshou' a derogatory term?"
Hearing this, Shen Fan cleared his throat a few times and explained earnestly.
"You misunderstood."
"It's not 'Qinshou' (Poultry), it's 'Qin Beast' (Qin Beast)."
As he spoke, he summoned his Mystic Moon Zither and said, "See? It's a zither. I am a zither-type Spirit Beast."
Looking at the miniature Mystic Moon Zither in Shen Fan's palm, Xiao Wu asked in confusion, "A zither-type Spirit Beast?"
"Are there such Spirit Beasts?"
She quickly recalled all the rare Spirit Beasts she had seen or heard of, trying to find information about zither-type Spirit Beasts. However, before she could figure it out, the door to the room was kicked open with a bang, followed by Liu Erlong's anxious voice.
"Xiao Wu."
"Are you alright?"
At this point, Liu Erlong, who had a clear view of the situation inside the room, felt her mind was a bit overwhelmed.
"Mother?"
"What are you doing?"
"Aside from being startled by you kicking the door, I'm perfectly fine."
Xiao Wu looked at Liu Erlong, who was standing at the doorway with wide eyes, in astonishment, speaking as she got off Shen Fan.
"I... I suddenly felt a spirit power fluctuation from your room from the use of a Spirit, and I thought you two were fighting."
At this point, Liu Erlong slammed the door shut again and warned the Shrek people outside not to come in. Only then did she look back at the two and ask, "What were you doing just now?"
"What were we doing just now?"
"We weren't doing anything."
Xiao Wu looked bewildered, completely not understanding what Liu Erlong was saying.
"Oh, you."
Seeing that she couldn't get any answers from Xiao Wu, Liu Erlong sighed inwardly, then glared at Shen Fan with fiery eyes.
"You're a grown man, aren't you going to say something?"
She truly loved Xiao Wu, and even though she couldn't stand Shen Fan, she was still worried about outsiders hearing something, so her voice was very low.
"If I say this is a misunderstanding, would you believe me?"
Shen Fan was not a simple person; of course, he knew that Liu Erlong thought something had happened between him and Xiao Wu, but he also felt very wronged.
"Misunderstanding?"
"This old woman saw Xiao Wu hugging you, even her legs were... and you still dare to say this is a misunderstanding?"
Liu Erlong hated irresponsible men the most and almost couldn't control her temper, almost slapping Shen Fan.
"Mother."
"What are you talking about?"
"You really misunderstood."
"I jumped onto Shen Fan because you suddenly kicked the door and startled me."
Liu Erlong had made it so obvious that no matter how slow Xiao Wu was, she knew her Mother had misunderstood.
"You're still speaking up for this scumbag?"
"Didn't you see he doesn't even want to admit his relationship with you?"
"You also said that you jumped onto Shen Fan because I startled you."
"Fine."
"Even if I believe that you hugging Shen Fan with both hands and feet was a misunderstanding."
"But if you two weren't very close to each other before, could you have jumped so accurately into Shen Fan's arms without thinking?"
"How do you explain that?"
Liu Erlong scolded Xiao Wu, feeling frustrated, though she still gave Xiao Wu some face and did not voice her thought that the two of them were kissing earlier.
"Ah, this..."
Xiao Wu really couldn't explain this point. Earlier, in order to let Shen Fan feel her Spirit Beast aura without it being detected by others outside, she and Shen Fan were indeed squeezed together. Later, they were so engrossed in talking that they didn't separate much, with almost only half a step's distance between them.
"Hmph."
"Now you have nothing to say, right?"
"You ungrateful little thing."
"I'm speaking up for you, and you're contradicting me."
Liu Erlong lightly tapped Xiao Wu's head.
"Ow."
Xiao Wu covered her head, pretending to be in pain, while secretly questioning Shen Fan with her eyes: "What should we do?"
"What do you mean, what should we do?"
"We didn't do anything in the first place."

Shen Fan responded with his eyes as well.
"If you have something to say, say it openly. Why are you being so secretive?"
Liu Erlong noticed the subtle actions between Xiao Wu and Shen Fan and tapped Xiao Wu's head again. After waiting a while and seeing the two look at each other without speaking, she asked, "Did you two know each other before, or did you just meet today?"
"We just met today."
Shen Fan said.
"I see."
Liu Erlong was silent for a moment, as if having made a decision, then said, "I can see that Xiao Wu likes you very much."
"Her feelings for Tang San should only be sibling affection."
"After all, if she truly loved Tang San, she would never have left him, still injured, aside and insisted on talking to you alone, just after meeting you today."
"Nor would she have been so close to you, even hugging you, when the two of you were alone in a room, and also..."
"Even more so, she wouldn't have repeatedly sided with you and spoken up for you, making me feel like my daughter has a boyfriend and has forgotten her mother."
"Most importantly, before meeting you, Xiao Wu would cry if anything was wrong with Tang San. But after meeting you, look, there are no longer tears in Xiao Wu's eyes for Tang San."
"And other things, I won't mention."
"Also, you two seem to have great chemistry. You've only just met, but you can already understand the meaning in each other's eyes."
Speaking of this rather telepathic connection, Liu Erlong smiled and stopped Xiao Wu and Shen Fan, who were listening and felt something was wrong and wanted to explain, then continued.
"To be honest."
"Initially, I didn't like you at all."
"But who can help it if Xiao Wu likes you?"
"I've wasted half my life; I don't want to see my daughter also suffer from love in the future."
"I... alas."
Thinking of the extreme push and pull between herself and Yu Xiaogang, Liu Erlong felt very bitter and had no desire to continue talking nonsense. She directly said something astonishing: "You two should get married."
"I will prepare the wedding."
"About three days should be enough."
"You two can just wait at ease."
After speaking, Liu Erlong ignored the two who were stunned by the word 'marriage' and left the room somewhat dejectedly. She also chased away the Shrek students gathered at the door, intending to let Xiao Wu and Shen Fan continue talking and cultivate their feelings.

"Isn't this just talking nonsense?"

"It seems like matchmaking, but that's only because we're looking at it from a God's perspective."
