Chapter 586: Ai Ma's Request
"..."
He still has a hidden reason?
Recalling the freckled Prince who was arrogant, annoying, and extremely self-centered, whose face was simply written with "asking for a beating," Li Ang couldn't help but click his tongue from the bottom of his heart.
Fine.
Since he also has a hidden reason, then I can't be too unsympathetic. Next time he falls into my hands again, I can slap him with a sympathetic look!
"Um, wait a moment!"
After pondering how to treat his nominal brother-in-law in the future, Li Ang tasted Ai Ma's words carefully and found that something seemed wrong, and couldn't help but ask:
"The nightmare that the King of Nightmares makes people dream of, shouldn't it be the regrets of the past? But why are Joshua's dreams all about the future? Could it be that he really just had a nightmare?"
"I have also thought about this possibility, but the possibility is really very low."
Ai Ma shook her head:
"Simple dreams are all very fragmented, not so smooth, continuous, and logical, and it is impossible to cause such huge damage to a person's mental state.
What's more, he has already lost the memory of the Princess, and even doesn't know who Veronica is, so how could he have a dream about her?"
"That's true..."
After nodding and agreeing with Senior Ai Ma's judgment, Li Ang couldn't help but frown.
"Then what is going on? Could it be that even the power controlled by an existence at the level of the King of Nightmares can make mistakes?"
"Yes, I can't figure it out either."
Ai Ma shook her head:
"Regarding things like dreams, souls, and spirits, I really know very little, so I want to go back and ask the Director first to see if she has any clues... By the way, Li Ang, are you planning to go back to the Bureau with me, or go home and take a look first?"
"I'll go home first."
After looking up at the sky, Li Ang reached out and touched the photo in his arms, then smiled and said:
"Today is Wednesday, and the school lets out relatively early. Calculating the time, Anna should have already picked up the two little ones from school. It's just right for me to go home now.
As for Prince Joshua's dream, I just heard about the King of Nightmares. Even if I go back, I can't help. Just wait for Senior... um... wait for Ai Ma and the Director to study the results and tell me what I can do."
"Alright, then I won't see you off."
Waving to the two steam carriages waiting on the side of the road and paying the fare before Li Ang, Ai Ma, who boarded the carriage, hesitated slightly, then poked her head out and asked:
"Li Ang, do you remember that I once asked you to help me with a favor?"
"Remember! Of course I remember!"
Hearing this, Li Ang, who was preparing to get in the car, froze slightly, then turned around and promised earnestly:
"Senior Ai Ma, you not only taught me a lot of knowledge needed for work in the Cleanup Bureau, but also saved my sister's life at the hospital! As long as it's something I can do, no matter what request, just ask!"
"Why are you calling me Senior again..."
After blinking helplessly, Ai Ma smiled and said:
"Since you said so, then I won't be polite with you.
Next month is my daughter's birthday. I... although I am a mother, I haven't spent much time with her, so I don't really know what children like.
Li Ang, you have three younger siblings, so you should know more about this than I do. So, can you spare a day to let my daughter have a birthday without regrets?"
You said it so seriously, but the result is just to accompany your daughter for her birthday? Is this the favor you wanted me to help you with before?
After listening to Senior Ai Ma's request, Li Ang froze slightly, but found no reason to refuse, and didn't want to refuse, so after thinking about it, he nodded and agreed.
"Alright, which day exactly? I will definitely go!"
"The 6th! The 6th of next month!"
Hearing Li Ang agree to her request, Ai Ma couldn't help but show a happy smile, waving to him to say goodbye: "8 o'clock on the morning of the 6th, I will bring Ai Li and wait for you under the big tree at the gate of Baohua Manor on Red Cedar Avenue. You must come then!"
"Alright! I will definitely be there!"
After making an appointment with Senior Ai Ma and watching her leave, Li Ang boarded his carriage, then took out the small notebook he carried with him from his arms and seriously recorded this matter on the latest page.
【To-do list:
1. Peep at Senior Tang Mu's soul state a few more times to see if he has been affected by the Aquarius Director (everything is normal for now)
2. Chat with the Director about my luck problem (the Director has no way either, shelved)
3. Sneak into the Chengjin Sect gathering and brush the Holy Spirit Badge to Gold (time is uncertain, about three weeks later)
4. Go home to deliver hair, then ask Anna about the photos, and by the way, confirm her sexual orientation. If there is danger, go to the Director for help (it shouldn't be about sexual orientation)
5. Princess event investigation (no clues for now, but it definitely has something to do with the Aquarius Director. Damn Aquarius Director! Why does he have to meddle in everything!)
6. Senior Ai Ma's daughter's birthday (the 6th of next month, 8 am, under the red cedar tree at the gate of Baohua Manor, her name is Ai Li)】
Hmm... these should be the most important ones.
After looking at these six things, Li Ang nodded with satisfaction and was about to put the notebook away, but seemed to have remembered something, and drew a big question mark on the last thing with the charcoal pencil.
The freckled Prince just said that Senior Ai Ma is the last person of the Baohua family, but she still has a daughter. Was she secretly protected by the Director? Or did the freckled Prince remember wrong?
Also! Although I don't know what Senior Ai Ma originally wanted me to help her with, it definitely wasn't to celebrate her daughter's birthday. This must also be paid attention to!
"No. 35 Bridge Street has arrived."
Just when Li Ang was holding the charcoal pencil, pondering Ai Ma's affairs, and drawing circles unconsciously on the notebook, the carriage driver's reminder came from the front.
"Guest, you should get off."
"Oh oh!"
Li Ang, who came back to his senses, put away the notebook, pushed open the carriage door, got off the carriage, and looked toward the direction of the Happy Apartment.
"Clatter!" "Clatter!"
"..."
Looking at the strong old man who was holding a large pair of scissors, arched out of the garden shrubbery with a thud, and started gesturing at himself, the corners of Li Ang's mouth couldn't help but twitch twice, and then he gave him a thumbs up from the bottom of his heart.
Grandpa, you are really too reliable. I just got off the carriage, and you are already squatting there and swinging scissors at me. Are you really guarding me strictly twenty-four hours a day?
However, just when Li Ang was preparing to bypass the strong old man and find the curly-haired aunt to treat him, so he could go home and see his younger brother and sister, he saw two familiar little heads arching out of the shrubbery together.
"Big brother?"
Seeing Li Ang standing outside, the two little ones couldn't help but be overjoyed, directly standing on tiptoe, leaning on the fence, and jumping up and down, trying hard to wave at him.
And Mei Lan Ni, who had changed into a beautiful little skirt, shouted even more excitedly:
"Big brother! Sister-in-law has already moved in! When can you marry her home?"
Sister-in-law... Veronica?
Hearing Mei Lan Ni's words, Li Ang couldn't help but blink in confusion.
Strange, how did they know about this? Also, when did the Princess move in? When he left, wasn't she still in the Cleanup Bureau?
