Did he really say that?

Ji Mingjing's lips twitched: "...Is it too late for me to take it back?"

Rongrong raised an eyebrow: "You want to play games?"

Just as Ji Mingjing was about to nod, she heard her say, "Then go ahead, I'll wait for you in the car."

Does Ji Mingjing really want to play games?

Of course not.

He wanted to play games with her and her classmates.

With his intelligence, he'll definitely be the winner tonight.

And he is Rongrong's boyfriend.

In other words, the head of the Ji family wants to make people envious of Rongrong for having him as her boyfriend.

But Ji Mingjing couldn't bring himself to say those words.

He still has his pride.

"Go home."

Ji Mingjing's plan to show off failed.

After getting in the car, he sent a message to Qin Yichen.

[Leave someone in the capital city and notify me immediately when Gu Si returns!!]

The two exclamation marks show that he really cares.

Not long after, Qin Yichen replied to him: [I didn't realize that you were the one who missed Gu Si the most (utterly shocked!)]

Missing Gu Si?

No, Gu Si was just a tool.

Ji Mingjing narrowed his long, narrow eyes and calmly replied, "Anyway, tell me immediately when Gu Si returns; I have urgent business with him."

Rongrong sat next to him watching him play on his phone.

Seeing the name 'Gu Si' appearing frequently on the screen, she couldn't help but think of Shangguan Wu.

I wonder what she's doing now.

At this moment, Shangguan Wu was busy taking care of the child.

Tianyou used to be easy to take care of. He could play all day in a rocking crib with a rattle and a tiger-head doll.

But starting yesterday, Tianyou became very attached to Guanwu.

He would cry whenever he couldn't see her.

No amount of coaxing could change his mind.

Shangguan Wu was worried that he might be feeling unwell, so she gave him a thorough medical examination, but found nothing wrong, which made things difficult to resolve.

Gu Yunzhen was practicing martial arts with Master Huang, and she needed to prepare medicine.

But two days have passed and she still hasn't found the time to go up the mountain to collect herbs.

"How come you have so much energy?" Shangguan Wu gently touched Tianyou's forehead with her own. "Go to sleep, Mommy wants to sleep."

She closed her eyes.

Tianyou stared at her with wide eyes.

After silently counting to three, Shangguan Wu cautiously opened one eye and discovered that he was still looking at her...

"Sweetie, it's impolite of you not to go to sleep!"

She had barely finished speaking when Gu Yunzhen's deep voice rang out from the doorway: "Is 'stinky baby' what Dad calls you?"

Shangguan Wu sat up abruptly: "You're finally back!"

Looking at her relieved expression, Gu Yunzhen suppressed a laugh: "I'm soaking wet, I'll take a shower first."

After saying that, he went into the room to get his clothes and then went to the bathroom.

Shangguan Wu and Tianyou looked at each other, one looking at the other.

She gently poked his delicate cheek: "Sweetie, what's wrong with you?"

Tianyou suddenly yawned, closed his eyes, and fell asleep.

Shangguan Wu: "..."

You're asleep already?

Why do you go to sleep every time your daddy comes home?

Not long after, Gu Yunzhen took a shower and returned to her room. She glanced at her sleeping son and her eyebrows twitched slightly.

How many times has this happened?

"three times!"

Shangguan Wu sighed.

A glint of light flashed in Gu Yunzhen's deep eyes, and he said in a low voice, "Don't go into the mountains for the next few days."

Shangguan Wu looked at him with a puzzled expression: "What's wrong? We're still missing two medicinal herbs, I'll be right there..."

Gu Yunzhen interrupted with a serious expression, "Wife, listen to me."

Shangguan Wu was taken aback for a moment: "Oh."

Gu Yunzhen gently ruffled her hair and said in a tender voice, "Good girl."

That very night, a strange thing happened in the mountains where Shangguan Wu often gathered herbs.

Tigers and black bears emerged from the deep mountains.

Along the way, the smaller animals all took off running for their lives.

Strangely, neither the tiger nor the black bear chased these prey that were usually quite delicious.

Of course! It's even stranger that these two big guys are walking together.

One is the king of beasts, exuding a regal aura, while the other is a goofy bear warrior who's always ready to fight. In terms of combat power, the tiger is stronger, but killing the goofy bear is quite difficult and risky. Therefore, they reached a truce after just one encounter.

Then we move toward our goal together.

The deep mountains were filled with the fragrance of nature, but there was a special aroma in the fragrance that made the two big guys drool.

They follow a special scent out of their territory, and the closer they get to their target, the stronger the scent becomes.

The final destination was near a grave.

On a plant.

The two large creatures approached the pink fruit of the plant, their faces displaying human-like expressions of satisfaction.

They then sat or lay down, guarding the three fruits until they were fully ripe.

Many animals were attracted by the aroma, but all of them were deterred and left by the tiger's roar.

In Hakuin Village, as dawn broke, many people were awakened by the roar of a tiger.

Soon, Grandpa Qi and Grandpa Huang met under the old locust tree in the village.

"You heard the tiger's roar too?"

"I'm not deaf."

Grandpa Qi looked towards the northwest of the village. He had come out earlier and confirmed that Tiger Roar was on the mountain to the northwest.

Grandpa Huang followed his gaze and frowned: "I'll go take a look in the mountains."

"Come back! You're an old man now, do you think you're still young?"

Grandpa Qi stopped him, his expression serious: "As long as it's not inside the village, you don't need to worry about it."

As the two were talking, some more elderly people came over.
