Chapter 63: Teasing Dou Dou

Seeing their own ancestors, some running away, others slipping off.

A-Mei looked at Huang Niangmu with some worry.

"Apo, what do we do now?"

"Don't worry. If trouble really comes, they won't leave us alone. Besides, if it gets really bad, we can call the police."

Huang Niangmu said with a chuckle, seemingly unconcerned about the powerful ghost her husband mentioned chasing them.

However, Huang Niangmu's words did surprise A-Mei a bit.

"Call the police?"

"Of course. Nowadays, the nation's strength is at its peak. Beneath the torrent of the Human Dao, any demon, monster, god, or ghost must retreat. Otherwise, do you think back then Apo was caught just because she couldn't stand up to them..."

Hearing Huang Niangmu say this, A-Mei felt relieved.

But after Huang Niangmu turned around, her brows knitted tightly. She had lived a whole life, yet this was the first time she had encountered a situation like today's.

Could there really be such a powerful ghost in this world, or perhaps someone like her with a lineage?

Yet, regarding the people in this small patch of Binhai, she knew them all clearly.

Unless it was an outsider.

For a moment, Huang Niangmu's thoughts raced, filled with worry.

But in reality, they were worrying for nothing, because Shen Siyuan could get no straight answer from Dou Dou.

One moment she said it was in the east, the next in the west; in the end, Shen Siyuan could only give up asking further.

At this moment, he suddenly missed Yi Xingyue a little.

Although this girl was also young, she was meticulous and patient in her actions, with an exceptionally mature personality, nothing like the unreliable Dou Dou.

Well, Dou Dou is only a three-year-old child after all, so it is understandable.

I wonder how she is doing after going back to see her grandmother; she hasn't returned yet.

"Go home, I need to rest." Shen Siyuan put down the Mao Jin and lay down on the bed.

Dou Dou stood still, and when she saw Shen Siyuan looking at her, her big eyes rolled around, refusing to meet his gaze; she even reached out to scratch her head, putting on a look of "I'm fine, I'm really fine..."

"Is there something else?" Shen Siyuan asked.

"Hehe, I want to watch cartoons; Sweet Potato Pot is the best..."

At such a young age, she had already learned to flatter.

"Don't your mom and dad let you watch?" Shen Siyuan said, quite speechless.

"There are only ads on the TV at home, and they are all shows I don't like. I am very good, I didn't reveal my form to make Dad change the channel..."

This little thing, by the end, was even Claiming Credit.

"Alright then, what do you want to watch?"

"I want to watch Paw Patrol."

"Alright."

Actually, it wasn't Dou Dou's fault for wanting to come to Shen Siyuan's place to watch TV; it was mainly because Shen Siyuan used

"Sweet Potato Pot, can I raise a little puppy too?" Dou Dou said pitifully.

"You'll have to ask your mom and dad; I can't raise one here."

"But I want to raise a ghost puppy." After Dou Dou finished speaking, she let her small hands droop and stuck out her tongue.

Shen Siyuan was amused by her.

"Sure, but the condition is that you have to find a ghost dog."

Animal spirits are not easy to find because their intelligence is too low and their thinking is relatively simple; generally, after death, the vast majority will dissipate with the wind. Shen Siyuan, for all this time, hasn't seen many.

Hearing this, Dou Dou stopped watching the cartoon, rode a gust of Yin wind, and rushed out, hurrying to search for a dog.

However, Shen Siyuan felt she was doing useless work; after all, her body of Nether Fire was leaking out in bursts, so the ghost dog, upon seeing her, would turn and run away in a moment.

"This little thing..."

Shen Siyuan said this with his mouth, but his mood improved.

It felt like he had raised a child.

Damn it, why does he have the feeling of being an old father before he even has a girlfriend?

Shen Siyuan muttered a complaint, picked up his phone, and found he had received a message.

He thought it was from Jiang Tingyu, but upon opening it, he found it wasn't; it was from his friend Yang Hongwen.

That is, the one who played games with him, 【Mary O】.

Because Shen Siyuan hadn't logged in for several days, he asked in WeChat for the reason, asking if he was quitting the game.

He also told Shen Siyuan that he had drawn an extra 【White Fox】 mount in the lottery and would give it to him when he logged on.

Good heavens, a mount worth three thousand yuan, just given away casually; he said he drew too many, but Shen Siyuan didn't quite believe it.

Now game companies have become smarter; for costumes and props that cannot be used repeatedly, once drawn, they are usually removed from the prize pool, making it impossible to draw a second one unless you switch accounts to draw or spend money to buy one drawn by someone else.

Yang Hongwen's 【White Fox】 mount's origin was unclear to him, but he was clear on why he did this.

The reason is actually very simple: he didn't want to lose a friend who could play games with him.

Perhaps some might think this reason is too absurd, but in reality, it is just that simple.

On the road of life, finding a "like-minded" person to play the same game is not simple.

Many people, at the beginning, would go down dungeons together, fight in the arena together, and PK together, just like a couple in love, thinking about these things in their heads every day, but as they walked, they walked and got lost, slowly leaving only you standing alone in the same spot...

Shen Siyuan had felt this way; the game he is playing now, many people played together in university, but gradually, for various reasons, one by one they eventually chose to leave...

At that time, Shen Siyuan wanted to keep them, but he knew he couldn't; after all, a game is just a game and must yield to reality...

This is also why professions like coaching have been spawned; playing games is never just a simple game, it also requires others to provide you with emotional value.

Yang Hongwen is probably in this state of mind now; if Shen Siyuan chooses to quit the game, he would truly become a lonely hermit in the game, and he doesn't know how long he could persist in the end, so he wants to keep Shen Siyuan here.

"I've had some things come up these past few days and couldn't log on." So Shen Siyuan replied to him with that.

Yang Hongwen replied almost instantly.

"So log on now?"

"No, I'm going to sleep. How about this Saturday? I'll come find you then, and we'll have a meal together."

Shen Siyuan had intended to say tomorrow night, but then he remembered he had promised Jiang Wenxin to go on a blind date tomorrow night.

He also thought of how Yang Hongwen had given him many items in the game all along, so he decided to invite him to play on Saturday and treat him to a meal.

"OJBK."

Yang Hongwen sent an emoji directly; clearly, the fact that Shen Siyuan had no intention of quitting the game made him very happy.

After Watching Dou Dou ran out, she didn't return that night. Not until the next day, when Shen Siyuan went to the company, did he see her trotting happily behind her mother.

Her mother was on the phone. Dou Dou spun in circles around Jiang Wenxin, and upon seeing Shen Siyuan, immediately ran over.

"How was it? Did you catch the little dog?" Shen Siyuan asked with some amusement.

Hearing this, Dou Dou became very angry and asked with hands on her hips, "You already know, right?"

"Know what?"

"That the dog runs away when it sees me," Dou Dou said, puffed up with anger.

Shen Siyuan shrugged his hands and smiled, "Who told you not to work hard at controlling the Nether Fire on your body?"

As he spoke, he even reached out and patted her little head.

She shook her little head in dissatisfaction, but her bottom wiggled along with it.

This made Shen Siyuan laugh heartily as he walked into the company.

Jiang Wenxin, who was on the phone, had intended to call him back, but after thinking about it, she gave up.

She merely instructed the person on the other end of the line, "Don't forget about tonight's matter."

"Second Sister, I know. You've already said it three times. I definitely won't forget; I'll keep the appointment on time," the person on the other end assured her solemnly.

Only then did Jiang Wenxin hang up the phone and let out a long sigh of relief.

Then she reached out her hand to the side, making a gesture as if to pull someone's hand; instantly, a cold wind coiled around her fingertips.
