After thinking carefully for a moment, Xia Tian said, "I am a businessman, and I always value harmony. I never intentionally offend anyone."
"As for the owner of that toy shop."
"Although I acquired his toy store, the company needs his technical support, so I hired him as a consultant for this project at a high salary. I hope I haven't offended him?"
Upon hearing this, Kui Kui fell into deep thought.
The curse of paper dolls has a specific target, such as the doll's owner.
It was midday, the yang energy was at its peak, and no matter how you looked at it, it seemed strange that this paper figure had suddenly attacked Xia Tian.
There's no way to explain why the person who cast the curse didn't have a deep-seated hatred for Xia Tian.
Xia Menglu looked at Kui Kui without saying a word, and felt very anxious.
She frowned and said, "Dad, what do you mean by 'should'? Kui Kui isn't an outsider, and she just saved you! You better tell me honestly, did you use some shady means to acquire that store?"
"You little brat, why are you siding with outsiders! Don't you know what kind of person your father is?"
"Although I didn't personally negotiate the acquisition, the price I offered was far higher than the market price, and I definitely didn't treat the boss unfairly."
Xia Tian then turned to Kui Kui and said, "Kui Kui, your uncle knows you're capable. For the sake of your relationship with Lulu, could you do your uncle a favor?"
"I'd like to visit that toy shop owner this afternoon. Would it be convenient for you to come with me?"
“If this matter isn’t resolved properly, the project will be scrapped. Even if it means losing money, I can’t let this potentially dangerous project continue.”
Little White wagged its tail and interjected, "Kui, I advise you not to get involved in this. Anyone capable of casting such a curse is no ordinary person."
"Even if you and I were together, we might not be able to beat the other."
Seeing that Kui Kui didn't agree immediately, Xia Menglu pleaded, "Kui Kui, please help my dad?"
Xiao Bai suddenly raised its head, then lowered it again, looking listless.
"Alright, since this girl has already asked, I have no choice but to help. Tell her I've repaid her for the chocolate!"
Kui Kui smiled and said to Xia Menglu, "We are friends, so of course I will help."
"Also, Grandpa Bai asked me to tell you that he will also help, as a way of repaying you for the chocolate."
Xia Menglu's eyes lit up with golden light as she exclaimed, "That's wonderful!"
She quickly bowed to the void and said, "Thank you, Grandpa Bai!"
A faint ray of light fell upon Xiaobai.
He shuddered comfortably, for it was the first time he had felt someone other than Kui Kui give him the power of faith.
Although it is not as powerful as Kui Kui, and can even be said to be negligible, it is extremely pure.
Xia Menglu turned around and said, "Kui Kui, I looked it up online, and it says that Ma Xian has to offer incense to the temple every day."
“Once this is over, shall we build a shrine for Grandpa Bai in our dorm room? I’ll offer incense to Grandpa Bai every day from now on.”
Upon hearing this, Xiaobai immediately perked up.
Why would an immortal complain about having too much incense offering?
Moreover, with more people offering him alms, his cultivation will progress even faster.
"You said it yourself, girl, I didn't ask for it!"
"Aoi, you have to be my witness! If she goes back on her word, or can't keep her promise, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
Kui Kui nodded slightly and replied, "Okay."
After the meal, Xia Tian took Kui Kui to the original site of the dollhouse.
Originally, Xia Menglu and Wu Youyou also wanted to come along, but Xia Tian and Kui Kui both refused.
If the boss really is the one who cast the curse, Kui Kui is not confident that he can protect so many people at the same time.
As soon as Xia Tian got out of the car, she saw Li Qizheng, the project manager.
He stood in front of the toy store.
Perhaps because of the heat, he took off his gray suit jacket, draped it over his arm, and wiped away sweat with a tissue from time to time.
I don't know if it's because the tissues are of poor quality or because he uses them too frequently.
Some scraps of paper stuck to his face, but he didn't notice.
