"Don’t ask anymore, think about how to deal with these things!" the Ruanlin Family cautioned, lowering her voice for fear of waking up more people in the house. This kind of thing should be kept secret for as long as possible.
Ruan Jianguo looked at the two unusually calm children beside him and had a vague guess about what was happening.
He took a deep breath.
He said, "Let’s hurry to the new building, lock up the main gate, and no one will see." The new building had a surrounding wall, enclosed from front to back, over two meters high, capable of hiding these animals. As for those decoration workers, they could be easily dismissed by saying that a restaurant was about to open and the animals were specially purchased for it.
The workers were not from around here, so they wouldn’t suspect anything.
"Okay, let’s go there," the Ruanlin Family agreed, feeling there was no other solution. It was just a pity that they hadn’t lived in the new building yet, and now these animals had to move in first.
"Xiaoxi, can you make them go to the new building at the head of the village?" the Ruanlin Family asked Xiu Xi.
With just a look, all the animals turned and orderly walked along the path towards the head of the village, their movements light.
"..." the Ruanlin Family.
Not to mention the Ruanlin Family and Ruan Jianguo, but Ruan Jiaojiao’s perception of Xiu Xi had changed. Had this little villain become too powerful? Was he really the same villain she was familiar with?
The original book said he was very smart, which is why he could develop a virus to destroy the world, but it never mentioned he had the ability to command animals.
Clearly, these animals were all acting upon his gaze.
Ruan Jiaojiao looked at Xiu Xi, filled with deep suspicion.
Meanwhile, the Ruanlin Family and Ruan Jianguo didn’t have the time to pursue these matters. They shut the back door, told Ruan Jiaojiao and Xiu Xi to stay inside and not run around, and the two of them went ahead to the village head.
To ensure the concealment was done right, they hardly slept that night. It was past four in the morning when they finally managed to finish their work, moving all the fruits and eggs from the backyard inside.
Ruan Jiaojiao couldn’t stay awake and fell asleep in the rocking chair in the main room, while Xiu Xi, holding the two milk candies she had given him, quietly watched over her.
Standing in the yard of the new building, looking at these animals, Ruan Jianguo’s eyes were filled with complexity.
He used to deceive himself, thinking that perhaps Xiu Xi was only skilled at hunting due to having starved before.
But after last night’s events, he couldn’t afford to think that way anymore.
This child was indeed different!
Even their daughter seemed different.
He tried hard to recall when such strange events started happening. Was it after Jiaojiao got better and left the hospital?
Could it be because she had passed through Ghost Gate that she brought back some special abilities?
Ruan Jianguo was baffled and worried. He feared these things could have a negative impact on the two children.
As for the Ruanlin Family, she knew more and was more accepting than Ruan Jianguo. Still, she hoped this would be the only occasion for such events, fearing she would be frightened to death if it happened again!
"Mom, do you think these two children..." Ruan Jianguo struggled for a while but couldn’t help asking the Ruanlin Family: "Could they have attracted something bad?"
"Tsk! It’s you who attracted something filthy!" the Ruanlin Family spat at him, not caring that he was the father of their three children, and slapped him on the head: "Ruan Jianguo, I’m warning you, if you spout any more nonsense, you’ll see how I deal with you!"
