Chentang Pass, Li Family

"Third Young Master!"

"Where has the Third Young Master disappeared again?"

"You guys go check the main gate! You guys keep looking here..."

The maids searched the Li residence from top to bottom, but they couldn't find that small figure.

Nezha, hiding in the bushes, chuckled to himself and ran barefoot out the back door.

As soon as I stepped outside, I bumped right into a tall figure.

Li Nezha fell to the ground, a red bump immediately appearing on his head. He grimaced in pain, but he held back his tears. Instead, he jumped up, pointed at the person who had knocked him down, and spoke in his childish voice without fear:

"Who are you? Why are you blocking my doorway?"

Mo Chen looked down at the chubby, adorable little boy and raised an eyebrow. "You say this is your home? I seem to remember this being General Li Jing's residence?"

"Huh? You know my father?" Li Nezha tilted his head and looked at Mo Chen with curiosity.

He was dressed in strange clothes, holding a paper fan in his hand, and had a handsome appearance with a pleasant fragrance.

Li Nezha spoke thoughtfully, "I've met most of Father's friends on my birthday. You're not one of Father's important friends, are you?"

Mo Chen's hand holding the paper fan trembled involuntarily. This kid is really a clever fellow!

Seeing Mo Chen's expression, Li Nezha narrowed his eyes and smiled like a little fox, "Tell me, do you need my father's help?"

Mo Chen looked at him with a smile, "You're quite clever, kid! But I remember Li Jing's eldest son, Jinzha, and second son, Muzha, are already teenagers. When did you, a little kid, come into the picture?"

"Jinzha and Muzha are both my brothers. My name is Li Nezha, and I am the third oldest! You know them, but how come you don't know me?" Nezha said angrily.

He was different from ordinary people from birth, and his name had even surpassed that of his father. How could this guy not know him?

This made Li Nezha very unhappy.

Mo Chen suppressed a laugh. He was still just a child; he couldn't sit still when it came to himself.

So she stopped arguing with him, bent down and said, "Alright, I'm not going to argue with you anymore. Where is your father? Take me to see him quickly, I have something important to tell him."

"Huh? So you really are my father's friend?" Li Nezha looked at Mo Chen with a suspicious expression.

Mo Chen replied without changing his expression, "Of course, I've known him for a long time! Back in the day, we fought side by side on the battlefield, I charged into battle while he..."

All that talk was just a fabrication to explain his purpose today! His real purpose was to see Li Nezha, who was born after a three-year pregnancy!

Along the way here, passing through many places, we heard that this kid could speak from birth and had the strength of an adult!

This forced Mo Chen to pay attention to Li Nezha. A genius like him could definitely become a check on the underworld!

After some explanation, Mo Chen finally convinced Nezha:

"Oh! So you really are Father's friend! I'm sorry, Nezha was rude just now!" Nezha bowed respectfully, but then asked with a puzzled look, "But, I don't know why you used the side gate instead of the main gate, Uncle?"

Mo Chen, who was called "Uncle," was taken aback at first, and then his lips twitched involuntarily: Can I say that I am willing?

Actually, there were soldiers guarding the main gate, so he couldn't get in at all!

Mo Chen forced a smile and began to make up a story, "Because we had some unpleasantness in the past, I was a little concerned about saving face. If this matter weren't so serious, I wouldn't have made the special trip here..."

"Oh! I see!" Li Nezha looked Mo Chen up and down again, and after pondering for a long time, he finally spoke, "Then you're too late. Father has already seen the King off for several days!"

Mo Chen felt as if he had been struck by lightning: You brat, why didn't you say so earlier! I've been rambling on with you for ages!

Mo Chen clenched his fist, wishing he could punch this brat and make him understand why pandas only have two colors!

Seeing Mo Chen's gloomy face, Li Nezha chuckled and said, "Uncle, why don't you stay and wait and see?"

Mo Chen said coldly, "No need!"

Your dad isn't home, so who can stop me from taking you away?

However, looking at Li Nezha, an idea suddenly came to mind:

Mo Chen sighed with disappointment and said, "Since Li Jing isn't here, I'll be going now. Let's get together again when he returns!"

After saying that, he turned and left without thinking!

What goes around comes around! Mo Chen refused to believe that he would be defeated by anyone other than Yan Ligu!

Therefore, I would rather give him up than bow down!

Those who act as check and balance in the netherworld never bow their heads!

Also, even if he loses, he can't let Yan Ligu know that he can't even handle a little kid!

Otherwise, they would definitely laugh at the idea that three thousand years is a short time...

so

so……

You brat, I've almost walked a whole block already, aren't you going to say anything?!

Just when Mo Chen was in despair, Li Nezha suddenly called out with a grin, "If you can take me out to play, I'll tell you where my father went!"

Mo Chen stiffly turned his head, looking at Li Nezha's sly face: Damn, has this brat become a spirit?! Even that stinky fox Gu Liyan isn't as cunning as him!

This is truly a transition from hell to heaven in the next second!

but

Mo Chen's lips curled up; he had made the right bet!

Su Prefecture, Jizhou

Su Hu has relaxed his supervision of Su Xian'er recently, and Xiao Cui's presence is no longer so obvious. Sometimes, he even wishes Su Xian'er would send her out to run errands.

Today, as usual, Su Xian'er tricked Xiao Cui into going out to buy candied hawthorns and immediately began her great escape plan!

"My father is really something. He didn't even consider my feelings until the very end. He just said he'd marry me off! He's so inhumane! I have to run away from home to show him that I have a temper! Humph!" He muttered to himself as he pushed open the wardrobe. "Luckily, I was prepared. No one knows about the escape tunnel that Xiaoping and I dug before. We recently dug it through. That's great!"

Pushing open the cabinet, there was a hole big enough for Su Xian'er to crawl out! Without thinking, she crawled out. Outside the wall was her own garden, and beyond the garden were the streets of the city.

She taught herself the simple trick of directly scaling walls from a young age!

Jumping over the wall, Su Xian'er dusted herself off and swaggered out. "If it weren't for Xiao Cui keeping a close eye on me, I would have escaped long ago! Now who can stop me?! Hehehe—"

Thinking of the white-clad youth again, Su Xian'er blushed and quickened her pace, heading towards Gu Liyan's direction...

Gu Liyan

Wait for me

I'll come find you right away.

——

Sunlight streamed through the window, illuminating Gu Liyan's profile. He smiled and opened the window, a gentle breeze carrying the sweet fragrance of peach blossoms...

Gu Liyan's lips curled up slightly. "Xian'er, I've come to find you!"

When we meet again

Let's talk about forever.
