Before they could speak, Tuantuan spoke up.
"You should all follow me."
The little milk group truly lives up to their reputation as masters of balancing things out; if they want to stay, then let's all stay together.
With more friends, it's more lively, and Tuanbao also likes lively atmospheres.
The competition for favor came to an end. Gu Hongwen sat in his chair, took a sip of water to calm himself down.
A quick glance revealed that the ghost insects had vanished!
Gu Hongwen was terrified and quickly checked his hands and arms for any wounds.
"Tuantuan, Jinghuai, something terrible has happened! The ghost worms have disappeared! Quickly check if they've burrowed into your bodies through your skin!"
After watching the competition for favor, Gu Jinghuai heard Gu Hongwen's anxious voice and instinctively ran over to grab Tuantuan's little hand: "Tuantuan, have you seen the ghost worm?"
The three little ones hurriedly checked their bodies to see if any ghostly insects had invaded them.
Meng Xiong has questionable values and personality. The ghost insects he created are no good either; they are all treacherous and cunning villains!
As everyone panicked, the little dumpling pointed to the ground and said, "It's right here."
Gu Jinghuai looked down and saw the ghost insect.
It lay on the ground, and it looked like it had crawled all the way from the table to Tuan Tuan's feet.
Tuan Tuan squatted down, and Gu Jinghuai followed suit.
To his surprise, he could hear the ghost insects talking.
"Hello, Master."
Gu Jinghuai: ? ?
The ghost insect was completely black, and when it looked at Tuantuan, it grinned wide, trying to please her.
Xiaomei is tired of saying the word "roll".
A fox came, a weasel came, and now a stink bug has appeared?
This is infuriating!
"Brother Jinghuai, it calls me master!" The little dumpling reached out and poked the limp body of the ghost worm.
The little bug acted cute, rolling around on the ground and revealing its slightly whiter belly.
"Brother Jinghuai, but I don't like it. It's too bad. Tuantuan doesn't want to be friends with a bad bug."
The little dumpling stopped, and Gu Jinghuai picked up the insect, threw it on the table, and looked at it with a warning look: "Stay right here, don't move, and don't come near Tuantuan."
If Tuantuan doesn't like it, it can't be in front of Tuantuan.
Gu Hongwen: ?
He knew that the student could surpass the teacher, but he never expected that Gu Jinghuai would also be able to unlock the talent of communicating with ghost insects.
Could all of this be because of Tuantuan?
This made Gu Hongwen feel even more strongly that Tuantuan was everyone's lucky star.
Anyone who knows Tuantuan will have good luck and unlock new skills.
Gu Jinghuai was about to leave when Gui Chong said something to him.
That one sentence pulled Gu Jinghuai back, making him stop and talk to the ghost insect.
Gu Jinghuai listened to Gui Chong's words and seemed to be deep in thought.
“Everything I said is true! This is a gift I gave to my master, a gift of abandoning darkness and embracing the light!”
The ghost insect struggled frantically. It spoke to Gu Jinghuai, but its eyes were fixed on Tuantuan. It only recognized Tuantuan as its master.
As for the others, they are just Tuan Tuan's friends.
Tuantuan ran over, sat on the chair, placed her hands on the table, rested her chin on her arm, and her soft and cute little face was reflected in Guichong's little eyes.
It swam forward a little bit with a fawning tone: "Master, what I said is true."
Gu Jinghuai sat down, and the two children talked to the ghost insect, which made Gu Hongwen stare blankly.
Xiao Mei and the three little ones listened to the conversation between Gui Chong and Tuan Tuan and suddenly felt that they were the most useless pets.
Weasel: "Tonight, I'm going to help humans more and accumulate merit, which I'll give all to Tuanbao."
Eight-tailed fox: "I will also do good deeds and accumulate merit in the future."
Nine-tailed fox: "After I avenge my family and kill Old Lady Hu, I will go and do good deeds."
Xiao Mei seemed to be deep in thought. She was Tuanbao's person, and she couldn't let Tuanbao down.
Gu Hongwen sat in the chair, looking left and right, feeling as if he had been eliminated by society.
Otherwise, why couldn't he understand what the ghost worm was saying?
Why couldn't he see through the little dumpling's origins?
Only Grandpa Tree Fairy sat to one side, staring at the Jianmu tree above Tuantuan's head and chuckling.
His eyes gleamed with a sharp light, as if he could see through the purpose of the Jianmu tree.
When the Jianmu tree noticed someone staring at it, its lush branches waved to the Tree Fairy Grandpa.
It's as if it's saying: Hey, old buddy, long time no see.
We will meet in person very soon.
...
When Meng Xiong returned home, his eldest son, Meng Qi, came back from outside and said nervously, "Dad, Gao Jianyun sent people to the restaurant to investigate. I'm worried that he'll uncover the restaurant's secrets."
Before Meng Xiong could even calm down, he was angered by Meng Qi's words.
"Meng Qi, I've been gradually handing over the Meng family's businesses to you for management, and this is how you repay me?"
Meng Qi lowered his head, his face full of shame: "Dad, it's my fault for not handling things properly. Sun Hao didn't die; he was given a statement by the special department, and then Gao Jianyun sent people to investigate the restaurant. It's all Sun Hao's fault; he deserves to die!"
Meng Xiong frowned deeply: "You can't even handle such a small person?"
"Dad, Sun Hao's mother was supposed to die a couple of days ago. But Sun Hao took leave and went back home, which is why his mother didn't die. He was working at the restaurant, which is why he came here to investigate. It would be better if Sun Hao's mother died! Then Sun Hao's disappearance could be arranged as an accident caused by the grief of losing his mother. Speaking of which, it's all Sun Hao's damn mother's fault."
"That's enough!" Meng Xiong slammed his fist on the table, his anger flaring.
"The Meng family's prestige in the metaphysical world cannot be affected by this trivial matter. It's just a matter of finding a scapegoat. You make arrangements so that even if a few insignificant people die, the Meng family will not be endangered, understand?"
Meng Qi nodded: "Dad, I understand."
Meng Xiong then asked, "How's the investigation into that child from the Yang family going?"
“Dad, I sent it to your phone. That child grew up in the village and was abused. She had no presence in the village at all. After being taken back by the Yang family, I don’t know if she learned some kind of witchcraft. First, she killed Ai Xin, who was proficient in metaphysics, and then she sent Yang Ling to a Taoist temple to cultivate herself. Most importantly, because of her arrival, the Yang family’s business has soared. Even the sickly Yang Jinchuan seems to have a last burst of energy before he dies.”
Meng Qi was stunned, his eyes revealing surprise and delight. He immediately asked, "You mean, all these things happened because of this child's appearance?"
“I’m still investigating. Ai Xin is dead, and we can only get information from her adopted daughter, Ai Beibei. Yang Ling is being monitored at the Taoist temple, and the people I sent there are still looking for opportunities to get close to her.”
Meng Xiong thought of the humiliation Tuantuan had given him today. That child pretended to understand when she was confused; she was too cunning.
This child must have some unspeakable secret to be able to change the fate of so many people all by himself.
Meng Xiong said, "You should deal with this matter as soon as possible. I suspect that this child's origins are unknown."
And he already had a brilliant plan.
