"Where have you been, Big Pot?"

Nini hugged her pillow pitifully, looking at Chu He who had returned from outside. She woke up in the middle of the night but there was no one there. It was also thundering and raining outside, which made her feel scared.

"Nini, there's nothing to eat now. The big pot is here. Let's go to bed together!"

Looking at Nini who suddenly woke up, Chu He touched her lovingly and did not mention anything about his intention to go out.

"Okay~"

With Chu He's company, Nini still felt at ease even though her mommy was not around, and was gradually coaxed to sleep by Chu He.

After the girl fell asleep, Chu He looked out the window at the flashing lightning and cold rain outside. The thunder split the sky, deafening.

And in this heavy rain, the fire in a villa still did not go out...

The next morning, Gong Rong came to visit as soon as Tian Yiliang arrived.

"What's wrong?"

Chu He sat on a stool and looked at Sister Rong who came to visit. It seemed that she did not sleep last night, but was regulating her breathing.

"Nini hasn't woken up yet?"

Gong Rong looked at his daughter who was still sleeping soundly, even dreaming sweet dreams, and a smile immediately appeared on the corner of his mouth.

It seems that Nini likes Chu He very much...

"Not awake."

Chu He smiled knowingly, stood up and followed Gong Rong out. Zhao Ya had been waiting outside the door for a long time. Seeing that Nini did not wake up, Zhao Ya did not go to disturb her.

After what happened yesterday, Zhao Ya was extremely curious about Chu He's identity. She had been asking him all night, but Gong Rong hadn't revealed anything, which made her even more curious.

But she was too embarrassed to ask, and she knew that some things were better left unseen. Besides, it was enough as long as Xiaorong didn't feel wronged.

After a while, Nini got up. Seeing that the big pot was gone, she immediately went to look for it and soon saw several people negotiating in the yard.

"Nini, wake up! Grandpa made breakfast for you. Come wash your hands and face and eat!"

Gong Wuji hurried forward to take care of his great-granddaughter.

He liked this child very much.

Today was unusually peaceful. Not long after breakfast, Gong Rong told Nini to stay home and then went out with Zhao Ya.

The two hadn't seen each other for so many years, so it was natural for them to spend time together and reminisce about the past.

Soon, they learned the news of Xiao Tingting's death from Zhou Haisheng.

They were both extremely surprised and incredulous. Xiao Tingting was actually dead?!

Zhao Ya even cursed, "It's good to die," and stopped paying attention.

But Gong Rong sighed, his eyes dimmed, and no one knew what he was thinking.

…

"Xiao Chu! Aren't you going out to play?"

"Well, since I finally made it to the capital, I might as well take a look around."

Chu He is not worried because Nini is taken care of by her great-grandfather.

"Don't worry, I'll be back soon."

Looking at Nini who was reluctant to leave him, Chu He touched her head and walked out of the Gong family's gate.

Not long after he went out, Chu He met some furtive foreigners.

The hidden aura from these people made Chu He feel inexplicably familiar, exactly the same as Nia he met at the beginning.

"A member of the blood clan?"

Chu He stood in the darkness, looking at the foreigners from the vampire clan, his eyes flickering with a glimmer.

Are you here for revenge...

However, the situation was different from what Chu He thought. The vampires did not come for revenge, but for the map.

Ever since they learned that the map was in Dragon Country, they have been lurking here for a long time, searching for the whereabouts of the map.
