CHAPTER 824: CHAPTER 821: SPLITTING UP

In the evening, when Ruan Manman saw Taozi return to the room, take a shower, change into pajamas, and walk around the house, she was very surprised.

She quietly pulled Ruan Hongzhuang aside and asked in a low voice, "Why is Taozi also living here?"

Seeing Taozi go straight back to her room, Ruan Manman was surprised.

"Yeah, she’s always been living with me, you know that." Ruan Hongzhuang said in a breezy manner.

"I know that, but don’t you have a boyfriend now? Is it still suitable for her to live here?" Ruan Manman said.

"What’s unsuitable about it?" Shen Siyuan looked towards the living room.

Tang Tang was bare-footed, wearing little shorts, with a bib around her bare shoulders, looking both comical and cute.

She was riding a scooter, playing eagle and chickens with Shen Siyuan and Taozi.

Tang Tang was the eagle, Shen Siyuan was the mother hen, and Taozi was the little chick hiding behind him, avoiding the eagle’s chase.

The room was filled with Tang Tang’s cheerful laughter.

"Oh no, I missed!"

Taozi swiftly dodged, avoiding Tang Tang’s swooping little hands.

"Hoho~ cough..."

Tang Tang was so happy, she almost choked on her own saliva from laughing.

Mao Sanmei, who had been watching on the side, quickly came forward to help her wipe her saliva.

"He really likes children." Ruan Manman commented upon seeing this.

"Yes, indeed." Ruan Hongzhuang replied.

Ruan Manman turned her head back and quietly asked again, "Are you sure Tang Tang isn’t his biological daughter?"

"Of course I’m sure, what nonsense are you talking?" Ruan Hongzhuang said somewhat speechlessly.

"You never know, I’ve seen a lot of such cases." Ruan Manman remarked.

In her circle, although such situations weren’t common, they were certainly not rare, where many wealthy people had children outside and brought them home as if they were adopted.

"Tang Tang was adopted from the orphanage by him." Ruan Hongzhuang said.

"Orphanage?" Ruan Manman was quite surprised to hear this.

Ruan Hongzhuang briefly told Ruan Manman the story of Mao Sanmei and her daughter, which left Ruan Manman quite shocked, not expecting there to be so many twists in the tale.

"But I really wish Tang Tang could be our biological daughter." Ruan Hongzhuang said.

"Do you all like her that much? If so, why not have one yourselves?"

Ruan Manman was a little surprised to hear this; she didn’t expect Shen Siyuan and Ruan Hongzhuang to like this little fellow with a ridiculous smile and drool all over so much, although she was indeed very cute.

Ruan Hongzhuang glanced at her and said, "You don’t understand."

Ruan Manman was a bit puzzled, not quite understanding what Ruan Hongzhuang meant.

The longer you spent time with Tang Tang, the more you’d realize her magic and uniqueness, as she wasn’t just any ordinary child.

At night, Tang Tang still wanted to sleep with Shen Siyuan but was forcibly brought back by her mom.

The little one got a bit upset and turned her back, facing Mao Sanmei with her bottom.

Mao Sanmei was going to console her, but within less than three minutes, the little one had already fallen asleep. It was unclear what kind of sweet dreams she was having, but her previously tense little face was now smiling again.

Meanwhile, everyone else hadn’t gone to sleep yet.

Ruan Hongzhuang and Shen Siyuan were lying in bed talking.

Taozi was contemplating whether to launch a night raid.

Ruan Manman tossed and turned in bed, unable to sleep. Seeing the changes in Taozi today gave her renewed hope.

If an "outsider" like Taozi was willing to help her regain her youth, surely a family member would too; it just wouldn’t make sense otherwise.

As for the cost, if Taozi could pay money, wasn’t her money also money?

The more she thought about it, the more excited she became; the more excited she got, the harder it was to sleep.

She could hardly wait to get up now to find Ruan Hongzhuang for a chat.

But she also knew in her heart that this wasn’t very appropriate since Shen Siyuan was in the same room with Ruan Hongzhuang.

----------

Xiao Yue, riding the Yin Wind and leading the three little ones, quickly arrived at the airport.

Mili was on her "first mission" and was very curious about everything around her; moreover, seeing the bustling crowd, she instinctively wanted to hide to the side.

Almost every ghost has been burned by the three fires, and that memory is anything but pleasant.

"You don’t need to be afraid, you’re not the same as you once were, these fires can’t harm you."

Dou Dou said, passing directly through a passerby without any issue.

Encouraged by this, Mili slowly approached a nearby person and discovered that he really couldn’t harm her, which filled her with joy. She then dashed into the crowd, weaving through it.

However, she was quickly called back by Xiao Yue; they had real business to attend to, not just play around.

Xiao Yue divided the four of them into groups, pairing herself with Dou Dou and grouping Duoduo with Mili.

The main reason for grouping this way was that she couldn’t trust Dou Dou alone, as this little one was too frenetic and a bit unreliable; pairing her with Xiao Yue would keep her in check.

While Duoduo and Mili were both the obedient type who follow rules, putting them together wouldn’t cause much trouble.

Dou Dou, unaware of Xiao Yue’s mental mutterings, was quite happy to be "on a mission" with Sister Xiao Yue.

"So, where do we go now?" Dou Dou was quite happy.

"We’ll go to the left; Duoduo, you take Mili to the right, following the memory of the person we’re looking for." Xiao Yue tapped her forehead, instructing the two.

"Okay." Duoduo and Mili responded together.

Although the airport was big, it wasn’t beyond the capabilities of the little ones who could fly.

They stirred up a Yin Wind, darting around the airport hall. Being ghosts, unseen by humans, no one paid attention, but the airport wasn’t without other ghosts.

Given Daxia’s large population, there were people in every nook and cranny, and where there were people, there were ghosts.

So as they acted with such abandon, they naturally attracted the attention of some ghosts wandering the airport.

Mili initially felt scared of being watched by these ghosts, some of whom even yelled menacingly in an attempt to scare them.

But when a ghostly blue flame rose from Duoduo, this soul-stirring terror caused the ghosts to avoid them, hiding in corners or shadows, not daring to raise their heads again.

Mili gazed enviously at the ghostly blue flames rising from Duoduo, as a Fan Soul, she naturally knew what they were.

"Don’t be afraid, even without the Netherworld Fire, they can’t hurt you." Duoduo said.

As Fan Souls, they feared no ghost; they were indeed at the top of the food chain.

However, apparently, Mili wasn’t paying attention to Duoduo’s words but was looking at a point not too far away.

Duoduo followed her gaze and immediately showed a look of delight.

"Is it him? The person brother is looking for." Duoduo was overjoyed.

"Let’s go."

She first stirred up a Yin Wind, landing beside that person.

Mili quickly followed, landing by her side.

"What should we do now?" Mili asked curiously.

"Wait for him to sleep, then enter his dream." Duoduo said.

"How about we secretly knock him out?" Meanwhile, Dou Dou and her team also found their target, and thus, Dou Dou offered her suggestion.
