You wouldn't want them to be bullied, would you?

“Of course I’ve thought it through. I believe the girl is innocent.” Qiu Bi smiled confidently and continued, “Besides, I’ve adopted six children and have some experience in raising children, so I can take good care of the girl.”

Upon hearing this, the police officer did not continue to persuade Qiu Bi, but nodded slightly.

"Okay, please wait a moment, I'll bring her over right away."

Before the policeman could even go looking for Anne Marl, the couple who had been hesitating at the police station entrance suddenly became anxious.

"Wait—we can't let him adopt that child!"

Qiu Bi's words convinced the couple to rush into the police station and loudly stop the policeman from going to find Anne Marl.

In an instant, not only Qiu Bi and the five girls looked at the couple, but even the policeman looked at them.

"You... know each other?"

"We don't know them."

When questioned by the police, Qiu Bi remained calm and answered in a measured tone.

The police looked at Qiu Bi and the others, then at the couple, their minds filled with doubt.

Subsequently, he chose to believe Qiu Bi, who had filed for child custody a week earlier.

"Please provide a reasonable explanation."

"This……"

The couple looked at each other, seemingly embarrassed or trying to find the right words.

A moment later, the husband took a step forward and declared confidently, "We are the child's relatives and are willing to adopt him."

Qiu Bi frowned immediately and looked at the couple, only to meet the woman's smug gaze.

The couple's reason for adopting Anne Mar was simple yet ugly: they coveted the large fortune left by Anne Mar's parents.

If it weren't for the large inheritance left by Anne Mare's parents, the couple would have no recollection of being Anne Mare's collateral relatives.

The five girls had no idea what the couple was thinking, only that they knew the couple was trying to "steal" their sister, and they couldn't help but glare at the couple angrily.

If Qiu Bi weren't by Xi Lin's side, Xi Lin might even turn evil on the spot, giving the couple a lesson they'd never forget.

True.

Sirin doesn't want to kill humans, but that doesn't mean the other four girls don't want to.

"But this gentleman filed for child custody before you."

"But we are that child's relatives!"

No matter how the police tried to persuade them, the couple insisted that they were Anne Mar's relatives and were determined to raise her.

While stopping Xilin and the other girls, Qiu Bi coldly observed the couple's hypocritical "performance".

After a brief standoff between the police and the couple, they were forced to compromise and allow Anne Mar to choose who would raise her.

"It's really strange... Just a few days ago it was 'nobody interested,' but today people are fighting over it."

The police officer muttered to himself and then went to look for Anne Mar.

Seeing this, the couple revealed a smug look, winking at Qiu Bi and the others, with a hint of petty triumph.

Qiu Bi ignored the two of them and patiently waited for the policeman to bring Xing Maer over.

However, Qiu Bi chose to ignore it, but his daughters could not.

Galina and Bella exchanged a silent glance, then simultaneously used the power of the Herrscher of Death to control the barely perceptible wisps of black mist to seep into the couple's bodies, slowly consuming them.

The couple seemed completely unfazed, even appearing confident that Anne Mar would choose them as her "adoptive parents."

Not long after, the policeman returned to the place with the young-looking Anne Mar and let Anne Mar choose her "adoptive parents".

Sirin observed Anne Mare with curiosity, her golden eyes revealing an emotion called "curiosity," and she had already begun to ponder how she and Anne Mare should get along.

“Xing, we are your relatives, and also your future ‘adoptive parents’.”

The couple feigned kindness, displaying false goodwill towards Anne Mar.

Anne Mar remained silent, glanced at the two of them, and then looked away.

In her vision, the couple did not appear as humans, but rather as two twisted banknotes, representing the image of "greedy people."

Therefore, Anne Marr is certain that the couple were not after her, but rather the inheritance left by her parents.

The next second, Xing Marton was stunned when she saw Qiu Bi and the others.

Everything else has vanished, leaving only that one thing.

Sirin's soul was as pure as an angel's, devoid of any sin, and instead radiated a soft, dazzling milky-white light, which deeply moved and attracted Anne Mar.

Since her eyes have been able to see the "sin" of humanity, everyone has manifested various forms of "sin," with the exception of Sirin and others.

Sirin's soul was without sin, while the souls of Aurora, Agatha, Galina, and Bella, though containing some sin, still radiated a soft, milky-white light, just like Sirin's soul.

Moreover, Qiu Bi is the most special existence, appearing as a normal human in Xing Mar's eyes.

—April Mar could not see the “evil” of Chubi.

In this situation, Xing Mar had no room for hesitation and immediately chose Qiu Bi and others to raise her.

Anne Mar didn't care about Qiu Bi and the others' motives; she was simply drawn to that pure soul.

No! You can't let them take you in. We are your family!

Seeing that Xing Mar chose Qiu Bi and the others without hesitation, the couple's smug expressions shattered instantly, leaving only endless anger and dissatisfaction.

Fueled by anger and resentment, the couple even attempted to forcibly take Anne Marl away.

However, this move thoroughly angered Celine.

For Celine, Qiu Bi, her three mothers, and her sisters are untouchable "injuries." Now that Anne Mar has chosen to let Qiu Bi raise her, he is naturally her new sister.

Chapter Ninety-Seven: Bella Reveals Her True Colors

Qiu Bi reacted quickly, grabbing Xilin's wrist to prevent her from attacking the couple in a fit of impulse.

It's not appropriate to deal with the couple in front of Anne Marle; at least we should wait until they leave the police station before we can begin to "discipline" them.

Celine realized what was happening, struggled only symbolically for a moment, and then stopped, silently watching the couple with a cold gaze as if they were dead.

Seeing that the couple was about to forcibly take Xing Maer away, Qiu Bi stepped forward and blocked Xing Maer behind him.

“Since this child has chosen to let me raise her, I am now essentially her ‘father,’ so how could I possibly let you take her away?”

Qiu Bi coldly stared at the couple, and seeing their slightly ferocious expressions, he couldn't help but sneer.

Then, he said with a mocking tone, "Or perhaps you don't want to raise this child at all, but just want to seize the inheritance left by her biological parents?"

“How...how could this be! We are her relatives, and we didn't want her to become an orphan without anyone to care for her, so we came here specifically to adopt her…”

"If that's the case, why don't you want me to raise the child? It would save you money on raising the child, wouldn't it?"

The couple looked somewhat embarrassed, and they remained silent, unsure how to refute Qiu Bi.

Then, the husband seemed to have discovered a blind spot and asserted confidently, "Maybe you're the one who's after her biological parents' inheritance!"

"Sorry, with my wealth, I wouldn't stoop to coveting such a small amount of money."

Qiu Bi gave a mocking smile, then stopped looking at the couple and turned to squat down in front of Xing Mar.

“Xing, I am Qiu Bi, your future ‘father’. Please take care of me from now on.”

"Uh-huh."

Anne Mar nodded blankly, her gaze involuntarily drifting towards Sirin.

Celine's pure, angelic soul deeply attracted Anne Mar, making her want to get closer to Celine, but she was afraid of upsetting Celine, so she only dared to steal glances at Celine.

"Come, let me introduce you to your sisters."

Qiu Bi reached out and took Xing Ma'er's small hand, leading her towards Xilin.

As the distance between them shortened, Anne Mar's panic and unease grew stronger.

Can I really get close to her?

Am I really not someone people will dislike?

I'm the "devil's son" who killed my parents...

Anne Marl kept asking herself these questions, and the fear and unease in her heart never dissipated.

Before long, Qiu Bi led Xing Mar to the five girls, including Xilin, and introduced them to Xing Mar one by one.

Upon learning the name Celine, Anne Mar's eyes brightened slightly as she looked at Celine with a mixture of surprise and longing.

Sensing Anne Mar's gaze, Sirin excitedly hugged Anne Mar.

"Little Xing, Xilin will protect you from now on!"

“Sister Xilin…”

Xing had never felt such a warm embrace before, nor had she ever experienced the feeling of being close to such an angelic soul. This made her very reluctant to leave, and she subconsciously hugged Xilin tightly, unwilling to part with her.

Xilin was even happier at this, and picked up Xing, letting Xing continue to hug her.

Among his many younger sisters, only Anne showed extremely obvious closeness and infatuation.

Therefore, after having Xing as her new little sister, Xilin forgot about Qiu Bi, her "father," and was unwilling to let go of Xing.

"Cilin, don't make things difficult for Xing."

Qiu Bi reached out and gently tapped Xilin's head, as if in reproach.

Xilin chuckled and then asked softly, "Xing, do you need Xilin to put you down?"

"No, no, I... Anzu really likes this feeling."

Perhaps in order to get closer to Xilin, Xing deliberately changed her way of speaking, changing her self-reference from "I" to "Xing".

Upon hearing this, Xilin happily hugged Xing tightly and rubbed Xing's face against her cheek, revealing her love for Xing without reservation.

Qiu Bi sighed helplessly, but didn't say anything more, choosing to let Xilin dote on Xing.

Taking this opportunity, Bella affectionately linked arms with Qiu Bi, while the bolder Agatha took the initiative to hold Qiu Bi's other hand.

Aurora and Galina, due to their momentary hesitation, regrettably missed a great opportunity to get close to Qiu Bi.
