Little Taotie didn’t know when she had fallen asleep again, but when she woke up, she found herself in a hotel room, lying on a soft, large bed.
Little Taotie turned her head and saw the fashion stylist sister lying on another bed.
The fashion stylist sister was a light sleeper, so she woke up at the slightest noise.
She saw Little Taotie rush to the bathroom in a hurry, and only after brushing her teeth did she come back with a face full of fright.
"I... I fell asleep without brushing my teeth, will it damage them?"
"...Probably not," the fashion stylist sister replied uncertainly.
Little Taotie rolled back onto the bed: "Teeth, you must stay strong!"
The next morning, a tragedy befell Little Taotie.
She stared dumbfounded at the white tooth in her palm.
The fashion stylist sister leaned over to take a look: "Did a top tooth or a bottom tooth fall out?"
Little Taotie spoke while covering her mouth: "The bottom one."
The fashion stylist sister patted her shoulder: "That’s better, it’s not as noticeable."
"I’m toothless now," Little Taotie drooped her head.
The fashion stylist sister struggled to hold back her laughter: "It’s okay, no one is going to make fun of you."
Little Taotie looked up at her: "You’re laughing."
"No! I’m not laughing!" the fashion stylist sister tried hard to keep a straight face, pulling down the corners of her mouth.
Little Taotie looked at the tooth in her palm, her eyes reddening, feeling more and more wronged...
"Don’t cry! Please don’t cry!" the fashion stylist sister quickly comforted, "It’s okay, everyone goes through this. Losing teeth is normal. The lost teeth will grow back, new and whiter and better ones."
Little Taotie looked up at her with tear-filled eyes: "Really, they can grow back?"
"But... Grandpa Fensi’s teeth never grew back, he uses false teeth."
"It’s different, children can regrow teeth, adults can’t, everyone only gets one chance to change teeth."
"How long will it take to grow?"
"...I can’t say for sure," the fashion stylist sister really had no idea, as it had been too long since she had changed her own teeth, and she couldn’t remember clearly.
Little Taotie kept covering her mouth, and once Gu Bei woke up, she ran to his side and tugged on his sleeve, "Brother Guh, a mask, quick, give me a mask."
Gu Bei handed her a mask, smiling, "The air here is quite clean, and there aren’t many people, it’s not really necessary to wear a mask."
Little Taotie solemnly proclaimed: "Wearing a mask is everyone’s responsibility to prevent an epidemic."
"Then okay, wear it," Gu Bei thought nothing of it and helped Little Taotie open the mask packet and put it on.
Once she had the mask on, Little Taotie immediately felt secure.
The fashion stylist sister came over with a smile, wanting to share some amusing news with Gu Bei.
Seeing her laughing and then looking at Gu Bei, Little Taotie realized something and promptly dashed off.
Gu Bei was puzzled: "Isn’t she having breakfast? Why did she run off?" View the correct content at NovelHub)
"She’s not in the mood for breakfast right now," the fashion stylist sister said.
"What happened to upset her?"
The fashion stylist sister looked towards Little Taotie, who was peeping at them from not too far away, and said amusedly: "Never mind, I won’t tell you. You’ll find out on your own."
"I hate it when you do this, leaving things half-said!"
The fashion stylist sister ignored him and went off to find Little Taotie.
She helped Little Taotie comb her hair, picked out an outfit, made a styling, and held Little Taotie’s hand, "Rest assured, the show is broadcasting today, it’s a detective series, are you confident?"
Little Taotie pulled out a toy pipe, lifted her little chin: "I am Sherlock Holmes!"
At the filming site, the director introduced Little Taotie to a few actors she would be working with.
Little Taotie recognized one of them.
The popular young star, Ji Guang.
"Little Taotie, good to see you again," Ji Guang greeted her as he came up.
Little Taotie tightened her mask, "Hello, Brother Guang."
"We’re about to start shooting, can you take off your mask?" Ji Guang reached over to help her remove it.
Little Taotie stepped back, her eyes wide with fear.
Ji Guang sensed something was wrong and asked worriedly, "What’s the matter?"
Little Taotie clutched her mask, her voice muffled: "I want to shoot with the mask on."
