Xie Qi slowly walked to the bedside, his eyes falling on the two of them. A hint of doubt welled up in his heart. He frowned, looked at 948, who was held in Xiao Yunduo's hand, and asked, "Can Xiao Yunduo really see you?"
Before this, when 948 claimed that he could be seen by Xiao Yunduo, Xie Qi actually did not believe it.
However, the scene happening before his eyes made him feel very surprised. Little Yunduo could not only clearly see the existence of 948, but even seemed to be able to have direct contact with 948.
Upon hearing Xie Qi's question, 948's thoughts raced. A moment later, he offered an explanation without hesitation: "That's right! You mentioned earlier that children possess the so-called Yin-Yang eyes, allowing them to see things adults can't perceive."
Meanwhile, Little Cloud, who was holding onto 948, overheard their conversation. He immediately released his grip on 948 and crawled towards Xie Qi.
His face was full of smiles, his little mouth was wide open, even without any teeth growing out, and he was making happy babbling sounds.
Seeing this, Xie Qi immediately smiled fondly. He quickly bent down, stretched out his hands, and steadily caught the little cloud crawling towards him, then gently held it in his arms.
Feeling the warmth and softness of his beloved son's body in his arms, Xie Qi's heart almost melted. However, despite this, he still had doubts about what 948 had just said.
So, while gently patting Little Cloud's back to comfort him, he continued to ask, "Little Cloud seemed to not only see you just now, he clearly reached out and grabbed you."
"Hahaha, host, didn't I just help you look after the little cloud? I transformed into a physical form and was playing with the little cloud."
Upon hearing this, Xie Qi's body trembled slightly, and a look of astonishment appeared on his face. He had obviously not expected 948 to be able to transform into a physical form. Before this, he had always believed that others could not access the system at all.
However, just as he was slightly surprised, his eyes inadvertently slipped from the lovely baby in his arms, and he happened to catch a glimpse of the exquisite crib placed beside the bed.
Suddenly, a trace of doubt welled up in his heart, because the image in his memory clearly showed that he had personally placed Little Cloud in the crib before leaving the room. But just now, Little Cloud seemed to be in the bed.
Full of doubt, Xie Qi looked at the bed and then at the crib, trying to confirm whether he was mistaken.
At the same time, 948, who was standing aside, keenly noticed the doubt and inquiry in Xie Qi's eyes.
So he quickly explained: "That host... I was just playing with Little Cloud and put him on the bed."
After hearing what 948 said, the suspicion in Xie Qi's eyes did not disappear immediately, but seeing that 948 looked calm and spoke sincerely, Xie Qi finally chose to believe it temporarily and nodded slowly.
However, at this moment, deep in Xie Qi's heart, he still felt worried and uneasy about the important matters that 948 had told him long ago.
Xie Qi gently moved his body and sat down beside the bed. He stared at 948 in front of him and asked in a low voice, "Is there any unusual movement in the Heavenly Dao? Is Xiao Yunduo in danger?" His words revealed a deep concern, as if he was afraid of getting a heartbreaking answer.
As Xie Qi finished speaking, 948 and Little Cloud exchanged a quick, tacit glance. Then, without hesitation, 948 began to lie, his face etched with guilt. "I'm sorry, host. What I told you before wasn't the whole story. Your situation is different from other hosts! Other host children might be rejected by the laws of nature, but Little Cloud definitely won't. He'll grow up healthy and happy, so there's no need for you to worry about Little Cloud at all."
After hearing 948's words, Xie Qi suddenly turned his gaze to 948 and asked suspiciously, "The situation is different? How is it different?"
Seeing this, 948 quickly nodded like a chicken pecking at rice and replied, "Yes, yes, it's different! Specifically... Anyway, it's very special! You can think of it as, you are the man chosen by God!"
Xie Qi frowned, completely disbelieving 948's explanation, but he was relieved that Xiao Yunduo could grow up healthily.
He continued to ask thoughtfully, "So... if I leave this world, what will happen to Little Cloud? Can I take Little Cloud with me to my world?"
At this moment, 948 patted his chest and assured confidently, "It's all right, host, rest assured! We have a special 'bring your family with you' service. Once you successfully complete your mission, you'll be able to reunite!"
After saying this, 948 breathed a sigh of relief, as if a huge weight had been lifted from his heart. After all, the young master didn't belong to this world, so he couldn't really be considered deceiving the host by doing this.
When the host recalls everything, he will naturally understand the reason.
After Xie Qi heard 948's words, his heart, which had been hanging in the air, finally settled back into his chest. The worry that had been accumulating in his heart for so long gradually dissipated like the morning mist.
At this moment, 948 and Xiao Yunduo turned their eyes to Xie Qi. Seeing his relieved look, their tense expressions relaxed.
948 exhaled lightly, secretly thanking himself, "Fortunately, the situation just now didn't overly stimulate the host."
However, neither 948 nor Xiao Yunduo realized that their interactions with each other had already quietly and subtly affected Xie Qi's memory.
This influence is like a stone dropped into a calm lake; though insignificant, it stirs up ripples that gradually spread...
As night fell, everything was silent, and soft moonlight streamed through the curtains into the room. Gu Ze'an and Xie Qi lay on the spacious and comfortable bed as usual, with a cute little cloud lying between them.
The little guy was sleeping soundly, with his mouth slightly open and smacking his lips from time to time. He looked very adorable.
At this moment, Xie Qi, who had been sleeping peacefully, suddenly became strange.
