He wore a long black robe, its hem fluttering in the wind. The robe was embroidered with delicate silver threads that outlined mysterious patterns, seemingly containing ancient runes that shimmered faintly in the interplay of light and shadow.
A wide black belt was tied around her waist, inlaid with a translucent jade pendant. The jade was warm and smooth, radiating a soft luster.
She wore a pair of black boots with fine, dark patterns embroidered on the surface. She walked silently, as if blending into the surrounding darkness. She exuded an air of mystery, making her elusive yet irresistibly alluring, and drawing people in to uncover the secrets behind her.
The figure gradually became clearer; it was Qian Yi, but he looked somewhat disheveled, with a hint of helplessness in his expression.
"Fine, fine, you've found out." Qian Yi sighed. "I was ordered by the God to secretly guide you to complete the mission, but I didn't expect Chen Xiao to see through it."
Chen Xiao asked curiously, "Why isn't Xi Xi showing up?"
Before the words were finished, Xi Xi's figure gradually appeared.
Xi Xi is like a delicate girl who stepped out of a fairy tale. Her round face has a healthy pinkish hue, like peach petals blooming in spring.
Her large, watery eyes were like a clear lake, pure and without a trace of impurity. Her long eyelashes fluttered like butterflies, each flutter seeming to tell of her ignorance and curiosity.
Her small nose was slightly upturned, below which was a cherry-like mouth that always had a sweet smile. When she smiled, two shallow dimples would appear at the corners of her mouth, making her extremely cute.
She wore a snow-white silk dress, with a circle of pale blue flowers embroidered around the hem, and the petals were adorned with sparkling crystal beads that swayed gently with her movements, refracting colorful light.
A light pink ribbon was tied around her waist into a large bow, which made her figure look even more petite and delicate.
She had shoulder-length, jet-black hair with slightly curled ends, half of which was tied up with a blue ribbon. A few strands of hair playfully fell on either side of her face, adding to her liveliness and charm.
She wore a pair of small red cloth shoes with golden auspicious patterns embroidered on the surface. She hopped and skipped as she walked, like a cheerful little elf.
When Xixi appeared before everyone, bouncing and skipping, it was as if time stood still for a moment.
Oh my god, she's so cute! Chen Xiao felt like her nose was about to bleed into her brain. She felt a little short of breath, really.
Ning Ci's eyes were full of love and surprise. Her gentle gaze was now even more doting. She couldn't help but slightly open her lips, as if she wanted to say something, but she was so shocked by this sudden cuteness that she was speechless for a moment. She just looked at Xi Xi quietly, her eyes revealing endless tenderness and care.
"Now I finally understand why Yin Yuyao gave Ning Ci such a high evaluation. I'm now blinded by Ning Ci's saintly aura, and I feel like I'm becoming intoxicated by her." Chen Xiao thought to himself, confused.
Yuwen Li, who was always carefree and confident, couldn't help but widen her eyes slightly at this moment, a hint of surprise flashing in them.
A faint smile appeared on her lips, softening her usually aloof demeanor. She said softly, "This little girl is so adorable, it's hard to look away."
"Ahhh, Yuwen Li's smile is so beautiful, such a contrast, my wife! Why?! Yuwen Li is obviously fooled by Xi Xi's appearance! I also want a mature and elegant older sister to coax me!" Chen Xiao said inwardly.
Yin Yuyao's eyes immediately welled up with tears; perhaps this pure beauty touched the softest part of her heart.
She crouched down, reached out and gently touched Xixi's hair, her voice trembling slightly as she said, "You're so cute, Xixi. I wish I could be like you."
"Hey, why is she crying again!? How come I never noticed that Yin Yuyao was such a crybaby before? Although she still looks pitiful when she cries..." Chen Xiao wondered to himself.
Ning Yuyuan cheered and ran to Xixi's side, squatting down to look her in the eye. Her eyes sparkled with excitement, as if she had discovered a new treasure: "Wow, Xixi, you're so much more likable today than before! You look so beautiful! You're so cute!"
"Hahaha, because it was Qianyi in disguise before! I'm dying of laughter!" Chen Xiao kept glancing at Qianyi from the side.
Previously, Xi Xi: Qian Yi, standing to the side, was speechless, feeling a great blow.
The original majesty in Chu Qiaoling's eyes faded, replaced by deep affection. She stood aside, quietly watching Xixi, a gentle smile unconsciously appearing on her face, like an elder watching her granddaughter play.
"Chu Qiaoling's aura... Is this the founding emperor? Is this the historian? As expected of her... She exudes an overwhelming sense of mature womanhood!!!" Chen Xiao roared inwardly.
Chu Yanxi raised her eyebrows slightly, her eyes revealing curiosity and fondness. A faint smile played on her lips as she whispered to the person next to her, "This little guy has attracted everyone's attention as soon as he appeared."
"Waaaaah, my wife is so beautiful, my wife is so cute, why doesn't my wife praise me? Waaaaah, I still love my wife the most, what should I do..." Chen Xiao, whose wife had become his empress, was on the verge of tears.
Ning Qianyun's serious expression instantly melted away, and her eyes softened and warmed. She stepped forward, wanting to hug Xixi, but she was also a little cautious, afraid of disturbing this porcelain doll-like little girl: "It's been a long time, Xixi is getting cuter and cuter."
"??? Is she really cute? This stinky Xixi, just how good at acting in front of those beauties before!!!" Chen Xiao thought to himself.
