Ten Thousand Soul Banner: Deceased, do you have any unfulfilled wishes?-Chapter 1187 - 1183: Mischief Makers

The two did not continue discussing those heavy, sensitive, serious topics. Instead, they talked about the local changes in Bin Hai and made plans over in Xiajing, engaging in a lively conversation.

During this time, Wu Xing also cautiously made a few modest requests.

Most of them were hoping that before Shen Siyuan takes action in the future, he could give a heads-up or, in certain special circumstances, prioritize official coordination to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings and panic.

These requests were reasonable and not too demanding.

Shen Siyuan thought for a moment. As long as they didn’t cross his line, were not overly troublesome, and didn’t restrict his freedom, he agreed to each one.

He wasn’t a monster indifferent to human feelings.

He could ignore his own convenience but couldn’t neglect considering the people around him.

Ruan Hongzhuang, Taozi, his own parents and family, they were all people he cared about.

He could act on his whims and be carefree outside, but if it brought unnecessary attention and trouble, it could ultimately affect those around him.

Sometimes, making things easier for others is making things easier for yourself.

After all, he was human, not a god without desires or needs.

He had attachments, vulnerabilities, and limits.

Shen Siyuan’s clarity and cooperation allowed Wu Xing to finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Before coming here, he had been anxious, worried that Shen Siyuan would be cold, hard to communicate with, and uncooperative.

But in reality, after talking, he realized Shen Siyuan was much more agreeable than he had imagined.

As long as you respected him, understood him, and didn’t cross his line, everything was negotiable.

The more they talked, the more they got along, and before they knew it, most of the time had passed.

It wasn’t until they heard the sound of the door opening and a few familiar voices laughing from outside that Wu Xing realized it was getting late. He hurriedly stood up to take his leave.

"Mr. Shen, I’ve disturbed you long enough, I should be going now. If there’s anything else, you can have Xiao Nan contact me directly."

"Alright." Shen Siyuan stood up, "Take care."

He did not intentionally ask him to stay, nor was he overly polite, striking a perfect balance.

The two walked from the balcony to the living room together.

As soon as they entered the living room, they saw Ruan Hongzhuang and Taozi, along with Dou Dou and Tang Tang, laughing and talking as they came in.

They carried various shopping bags in their hands, clearly having had a rewarding shopping trip, and they were in good spirits.

Upon entering, Ruan Hongzhuang immediately noticed a stranger in the living room.

The man was formally dressed with a composed demeanor, clearly not an ordinary person.

Zhong Xiaonan was standing to the side, whom she recognized.

"Is there a guest at home?" Ruan Hongzhuang asked with a smile in her eyes.

Wu Xing immediately stepped forward, nodding slightly in respect and politeness: "Miss Ruan, it’s a pleasure to meet you."

Although it was his first time officially meeting Ruan Hongzhuang, he had read the information before.

He knew she was someone always by Shen Siyuan’s side, with a special status, and should not be slighted.

"This is Director Wu," Shen Siyuan briefly introduced from the side.

No superfluous explanation, just five words.

But who was Ruan Hongzhuang?

Anyone who Shen Siyuan personally received, whom Zhong Xiaonan treated with respect, who could appear rightfully at home, and was referred to as "Director," their identity was self-evident.

Ruan Hongzhuang understood, displaying a proper smile: "Director Wu, hello."

Taozi also nodded in greeting from the side.

"Then I won’t disturb you any longer." 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

Seeing this, Wu Xing tactfully took his leave again, "Mr. Shen, Miss Ruan, Miss Jiang, I’ll take my leave now."

"Take care."

"Take care, Director Wu."

Wu Xing turned and walked towards the door with Zhong Xiaonan.

When passing by Taozi, he paused slightly, recalling an important matter, he spoke, "Miss Jiang, we have already coordinated the hall, whenever you have time, you can go to Xiajing to have a look. If there are any dissatisfactions or adjustments needed..."

Taozi’s eyes lit up upon hearing this: "Great, I’ll find time to go have a look."

This matter had been on her mind, and now that there was definite news, she was naturally happy.

Just then—

"Oh?"

A soft, syrupy voice sounded from the side.

Tang Tang, at an unknown time, had run up close with a bubble gun in hand.

She tilted her round little face up, staring at Wu Xing with eyes full of curiosity.

Her look was somewhat odd, making Wu Xing a bit uneasy.

Being stared at directly by a child like this, he felt inexplicably nervous.

Wu Xing cleared his throat slightly, trying to make his expression appear a bit friendlier, waving and smiling at Tang Tang: "Hello, little friend."

Tang Tang said nothing, raising her bubble gun, aiming it at Wu Xing, and gently pulled the trigger with her little hand.

"Poof~"

Numerous crystal-clear bubbles spewed out from the muzzle.

Wu Xing: "..."

He was frozen in place, unable to cry or laugh.

This little one, what did she mean by this?

"Haha, children are really adorable." Wu Xing snapped back to reality and laughed awkwardly.

He didn’t linger any longer, nodded to everyone again, and turned to leave with Zhong Xiaonan.

Watching them leave, he looked down at Tang Tang standing beside him.

He gently rubbed her little head and asked softly, "What did you see just now?"

Tang Tang tilted her head and seriously thought for a moment.

Then, she stretched her little arms out to the sides of her shoulders, her hands slightly open, like a pair of small wings, and fluttered them up and down gently a few times.

Her movements were clumsy yet cute.

Shen Siyuan: "..."

Looking at Tang Tang’s inexplicable actions, he was momentarily at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

"What is this?"

Tang Tang blinked, her face serious, as if saying: Can’t you tell? This is a little bird flying.

Ruan Hongzhuang and Taozi stood aside, seeing this, couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

The two adults laughed heartily, their hearts melting.

At this moment, Dou Dou ran over.

With an angry tone, she said, "Potato, let me tell you, that rascal Tang Tang just pulled down my pants...."

Seeming to understand what Dou Dou intended, Tang Tang quietly backed away, and once she had created some distance, immediately turned and ran.

"Don’t run." Seeing her escape, Dou Dou got anxious, "I haven’t finished talking to Potato yet, you can’t run."

Dou Dou quickly took a step and chased after her, all puffed up.

Shen Siyuan turned to Ruan Hongzhuang and Taozi: "What exactly happened? Pulling down pants?"

He was genuinely puzzled.

Ruan Hongzhuang and Taozi exchanged glances, seeing an uncontrollable amusement in each other’s eyes.

Ruan Hongzhuang tried to suppress her laughter as she recounted the chaotic scene in the mall from beginning to end.

After Shen Siyuan listened, he was first shocked, then couldn’t help but chuckle.

He was truly amused by these two little rascals.

The world of children is simple and pure, mischievous yet so endearing that one can’t get angry.

After the laughter, Ruan Hongzhuang curiously asked, "Siyuan, why did Director Wu suddenly come to Bin Hai to find you? What’s the matter?"

She could tell that with Wu Xing’s status, it definitely wasn’t just a casual chat.

Taozi also perked up her ears.

Shen Siyuan looked at the two and lightly asked back, "You two went shopping and only focused on buying things, didn’t check your phones?"

"Why look at the phone?" Taozi replied blankly and instinctively.

Ruan Hongzhuang reacted faster, her heart slightly moved, and immediately took out her phone: "Is there some news online?"

Taozi hurriedly took out her phone upon hearing that.

She wanted to see what kind of news made Shen Siyuan say that.

Ruan Hongzhuang quickly swiped her fingers across the screen and opened the news page.

Within seconds.

The expression on both of them changed simultaneously from relaxed curiosity to surprised bewilderment.

"We were just out for a day, and you caused such a big stir?"

Ruan Hongzhuang put away her phone, half amused and half annoyed, deliberately showing a teasing expression.

"Exactly." Taozi immediately chimed in, her eyes full of admiration.

"You really are something, why didn’t you wait until we were home? We wanted to see your grand display in person too."

She had always admired Shen Siyuan’s prowess immensely.

She regretted not being able to witness that scene herself.

Shen Siyuan watched the two women echoing each other’s sentiments and couldn’t help but laugh, "Haha, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future."

He paused, his smile slightly fading, and spoke with a more serious tone: "But, you two have been around me for a while now, it’s time to enhance your cultivation."

Ruan Hongzhuang and Taozi exchanged glances, seeing surprise and delight in each other’s eyes.

Seeing their eager expressions, Shen Siyuan continued, "Also, do you want me to help you open your Yin Yang Eye?"

Yin Yang Eye?

This time, the two women responded almost in unison, excitedly answering, "Of course we need it."

"Absolutely want it."

Shen Siyuan often dealt with ghosts, while they were like the blind, long hoping to be like him.

Shen Siyuan nodded slightly, "Okay, let’s do it now."

"Let’s go, to the bedroom."

He turned and headed towards the bedroom.

But before entering the room, he called Xiao Yue out of the room to guard the door to prevent Dou Dou and the others from disturbing them.

He suddenly decided to enhance the cultivation of the two women at this time somewhat due to Wu Xing’s visit today.

Improving their abilities would provide them with more safety.
