Chapter 715: 490 The Disadvantages of Having Space_2
“You silly child, you really scared us,” Chu Qing said with hands wiping her eyes and a smile on her face, “Don’t do this again in the future, it’s really frightening.”
“Yes, sister, this situation was too frightening, mom saw you and just cried nonstop, she was truly terrified,” Xiao Feng said, hugging Chu Qing, “Mom, I’m alright now, don’t worry if this happens again in the future, once I fall asleep, I’ll wake up naturally.”
Although no one knew if such a situation would occur again, as long as the secret space remained, it was definitely possible.
After everyone left, Xiao Feng returned to her own room. Having just experienced the incident, Acheng didn’t let her go out anymore, insisting she rest at home for another half-day.
Xiao Feng sat at her desk intending to leave a letter for Acheng, holding a pen in her hand.
Biting the pen, there was a question she couldn’t figure out herself.
She was trapped in the space and couldn’t come out, during this time, it would have been the perfect opportunity for the original owner to return, so why didn’t she?
Xiao Feng wanted to enter the space and ask Xiaoqi, but she was afraid that once inside, she might not be able to leave again, so she decided to wait until Xiaoqi woke up.
Just as she was thinking, Xiaoqi’s weak voice reached her ears, “Master.”
“Xiaoqi, I fell asleep again. Xiaoqi, I just don’t understand, when I was asleep, why didn’t the original owner return? It should have been the perfect opportunity for her,” she said.
“Master, it’s because of the existence of the space that blocked her. Master, have I not told you? The space belongs to you, and if she were to return, the space would be sealed off again,” Xiaoqi explained that if the original owner had the space, she certainly wouldn’t have died.
Xiao Feng sighed lightly, “So, it seems her time has not yet come.”
Anyway, she decided not to think about this problem anymore; thinking too much gave her a headache.
For now, everything was still hers.
Of course, she selfishly wished that the original owner would never think of returning. That would be ideal.
In the blink of an eye, it was the eve of the boy and girl twins’ first birthday celebration.
The party was entirely overseen by Yan Junmei, which showed how much she valued this event.
Conversely, as the Gu Family’s Young Madam and the mother of the twins, Xiao Feng became the most idle person in the Gu Family.
She spent her days accompanying the children, dealing with a few documents, and tending to some flowers and plants.
Lan Shuixian once again sought the Taoist Priest, “Master, Gu Yecheng has set his sights on my Lange Yuntian. Are you still planning to make a move?”
The Taoist Priest was rubbing a Bronze Sword in front of him, which was made of bronze, attractive but not sharp.
“On the fifteenth of this month, the night of the full moon,” the Taoist Priest put the sword aside and poured himself a cup of tea.
“Are you saying that would be the best time to act?”
The Taoist Priest just smiled, “Actually, you are not incapable of coexisting.”
“Coexist?” Lan Shuixian scoffed, “Master, I’m a selfish person by nature, I never allow myself to be at someone else’s mercy. So, for both her sake and mine, isn’t this outcome the best?”
“I wish you success,” the Taoist Priest said with an enigmatic air.
Lan Shuixian quickly left the place.
The Taoist Priest continued sipping his tea.
Another figure emerged from the shadows, “If Gu Yecheng has set his sights on Lan Shuixian, it’s only a matter of time before he turns his attention here.”
“Are you afraid?” the Taoist Priest sneered coldly.
“Aren’t you?” the other person looked at the Taoist Priest.
“Of course I’m afraid, otherwise, would I go to such lengths to prevent them from reopening the case?” The Taoist Priest picked up the Bronze Sword and tested it, “Gu Yecheng is capable, but he is bound to be a young man led by emotion at the moment. Have you found out what kind of organization the Dark Pavilion is, and whose turf it is?”
“No,” the other person shook their head, “It’s definitely a top secret place.”
“Now that’s interesting,” the Taoist Priest said with a dangerously narrowed gaze, “If we get the chance, we’ll destroy them. Any existence of secrets is a potential threat to us, understand?”
Today was the twins’ annual birthday party. Many families with children, both old and young, brought them along.
This was the children’s time to shine; if they didn’t show up now, when would they?
Yan Junmei was dressed in grand and elegant attire today, welcoming the guests with a continuous smile.
“Mrs. Gu, congratulations. Other families usually have one child at a time, but yours is remarkable, having twins, and boy and girl twins at that, plus they’re so intelligent, truly enviable,” a guest complimented.
“The Quan Family set the precedent, which is why my daughter-in-law could have two. Please, have a seat. This little girl is so adorable, is she your little daughter? How old is she?” Yan Junmei responded graciously.
