"I don't care!"
Under his gentle, smiling gaze, Jiang Nian'an released his hand and turned to the door, glancing at it.
"I forgot my promise to you because I was too worried about Xiao Zhanzhan."
If you insist on blaming someone, then go settle the score with Xiao Zhanzhan!
Just as Xiao Longzhan reached the door and was about to open it, he said, "..."
"You~"
Shen Nanxing chuckled as he watched Jiang Nian'an deliberately shift the blame. He then pushed open the door, put his arm around Jiang Nian'an, and walked straight inside.
Xiao Longzhan quickly took two steps back, and just as he grinned and revealed a well-behaved and ingratiating smile, the three little sparrows returned with their sparrow companions.
'Whoosh!'
Hundreds of sparrows drifted in like a black cloud, circling around the top floor.
Jiang Nian'an and Shen Nanxing were drawn to them and looked up.
'Chirp chirp!'
Three little sparrows landed on Xiao Longzhan's shoulder, glanced at Jiang Nian'an and the other person, and then started chirping in Xiao Longzhan's ear.
After listening to them finish speaking, Xiao Longzhan's eyes lit up. "Great! Lead the way!"
The three little sparrows immediately flapped their wings and flew into the air to relay the message to the other sparrows.
A flock of sparrows soon started chirping and flapping their wings, ready to lead the way for Xiao Longzhan.
Xiao Longzhan was about to follow, but suddenly stopped and turned to look at Jiang Nian'an and the other person with a guilty look on his face.
"Sister, brother-in-law..."
Jiang Nian'an glanced at the flock of sparrows above, pointed a finger at Xiao Longzhan, and moved her lips.
She wanted to say something but held back, finally only saying three words, "Let's get things done first."
"Oh~"
Xiao Longzhan scratched his head sheepishly and secretly glanced at Jiang Nian'an.
Her expression was calm, and she didn't seem angry, while Shen Nanxing, standing beside her, wore a faint smile throughout.
"I just want to avenge my sister."
After a long silence, Xiao Longzhan decided to confess and look at Jiang Nian'an pitifully with his two little hands clasped together.
"I heard from the big fox that there are psychic mutant creatures here, so I want to tame it and then take it to find the psychic creature that almost hurt my sister last time to get revenge."
"Then you can tell your sister and brother-in-law!"
Hearing him softly say that he wanted to avenge her, Jiang Nian'an's heart softened instantly, and she went to Xiao Longzhan's side and hugged him.
"You're going to take Big Gray and Little Blood Fox out to find that psychic creature by yourself? What if you encounter danger?"
"I wanted to avenge you before telling you, to surprise you~"
Xiao Longzhan nestled in her arms and whimpered, "Besides, if there's any danger, I can hide back in my spatial dimension."
"You can hide in the space, but what about the little blood fox and the big gray fox?"
"I can cover their scent with my own and bring them into the space to hide as well."
Xiao Longzhan tilted his head back, a smug smile on his face, clearly having planned this all along.
“Mental attacks are silent and insidious; they might be dead before you even bring Big Grey and the others into the space.”
Shen Nan walked forward, looked down at Xiao Longzhan, and spoke in a serious tone that Xiao Longzhan had never heard before.
"Little Zhanzhan, before you do anything, you should not only consider your own safety, but also think about whether you can protect all the partners who trust you unconditionally and dare to take risks with you."
"I......"
Xiao Longzhan looked at the little blood fox at his feet, then at the little sparrows in mid-air.
Not far away, the big gray creature was flying back.
"Once we get home, I'll find a few psychic ability users to practice with you."
Then you'll see whether your movements are faster or their attacks are faster!
"in addition--"
Shen Nanxing squatted down and patted him on the shoulder, "Since your surprise is for An'an, you can tell your brother-in-law about your plan."
If your brother-in-law knows your plan, he can send someone to follow you. That way, you can prepare a surprise for An'an while ensuring your safety.
"If An'an sees the people I arranged with you, she won't rush out out of excessive worry, and she won't let your surprise almost turn into a shock."
"Sister, brother-in-law, I'm sorry."
Xiao Longzhan lowered his head, clutching the hem of his clothes as he admitted his mistake, "I was too reckless."
"There's nothing to apologize for."
Jiang Nian'an gently patted his little head.
"I'm happy that you care about your sister, but I'm worried about your safety."
Just like your brother-in-law said, next time, you should at least talk to one of us.
Or you could ask your second and third brothers, your eldest brother from Nanchuan, or even Grandpa Liu, your thirteenth uncle, or Uncle Yun.
He absolutely forbade himself from taking Big Gray and the others out on adventures.
"Yes, I've got it." Xiao Longzhan nodded emphatically.
"Not only must we remember,"
Jiang Nian'an poked his nose. "You have to keep your word. If there's a next time, you'll be severely punished!"
"Hmm!" Xiao Longzhan's face was tense, and his expression was serious.
“Your sister is right. She hopes that someone can keep their word and not set a bad example for the children.”
Shen Nanxing coughed lightly, his eyes secretly glancing at Jiang Nian'an.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Nian'an winked at Xiao Longzhan, then pretended not to hear and stood up calmly.
"Little Zhanzhan, ask your sparrow friends to lead the way, let's go make new friends together."
As soon as he finished speaking, Big Grey returned.
The timing of my return was just right.
Xiao Longzhan picked up the little blood fox, stomped his right foot heavily on the ground, and leaped onto the back of the big gray fox.
