Chapter 960

~3 min read 468 words

"Thank goodness we ended up on the water—if not, we'd have suffered some hardship!"

After climbing ashore, Hu Tao dried their clothes with fire and finally let out a breath.

The incident happened too suddenly; she hadn't had time to react.

But thankfully, no harm was done.

As for that car,

the moment it hit the water, it turned into a card and returned to Qiqi's hand.

"Sister Hu Tao, your driving skills are terrible!"

After putting away the card, Qiqi tilted her head and offered a rare critique.

Indeed, her earlier intuition had been correct.

"Don't blame the Chief for this—it's the car's fault! It's junk!"

"Shall we go back and try again?"

Hu Tao propped her chin on her hand and gazed at Qiqi.

But seeing Qiqi's utterly expressionless face, Hu Tao let out two awkward laughs.

"Hehe, we'll deal with that later—let's go find Little Tuanyue now!"

"Okay!"

Hearing this, Qiqi nodded eagerly. 02

Soon after, the two began searching nearby.

Their luck was good this time!

They quickly spotted several on the grass, each with a different color.

"There's Little Tuanyue!"

Seeing her beloved pet, Qiqi's eyes lit up; she picked up a rice ball and prepared to chase after it.

But Hu Tao grabbed her from behind.

"Sister Hu Tao?"

Qiqi turned around, her face full of confusion.

Weren't we supposed to catch Little Tuanyue?

Why stop her?

"Shh!"

Hu Tao placed a finger to her lips, signaling silence.

Then she pulled Qiqi back to withdraw.

Once they were at a safe distance, Hu Tao lowered her voice and spoke seriously.

"Qiqi, we can't act rashly—if we scare Little Tuanyue away, it'll be trouble!"

"Huh? Then what should we do?"

Hearing they might not catch Little Tuanyue, Qiqi grew tense.

After finally spotting them, if they slipped away, she'd be heartbroken.

"We're too big—we'll startle them. Hehe, so we'll use this!"

Hu Tao chuckled and pulled out the Wind Charge!

In truth, all those words were just to fool Qiqi.

If she truly wanted to catch them, her Footpower-Enhancing Shoes could get her there in an instant.

But hadn't she just gotten a new toy?

Shouldn't she at least try it out?

If it didn't work, she'd step in herself.

"What's this?"

Qiqi blinked, her eyes brimming with curiosity.

It looked just like her car!

"This is called the Wind Charge—a miniature racecar! I won it as a reward from the Boss! That 'Peach' character on top means it's mine alone!"

Most importantly, it's fast and tiny—it won't be spotted by Little Tuanyue on this grass!"

Hu Tao patted her chest, grinning confidently.

"The Boss's stuff!"

Qiqi's face lit up with sudden understanding.

Then it should be fine!

The Peach Boy rice ball had already proven its magic!

"Qiqi, watch the Chief perform!"
