Ten Thousand Soul Banner: Deceased, do you have any unfulfilled wishes?-Chapter 873 - 870: Hide-and-Seek

Time flies like a fleeting horse, vanishing in the blink of an eye.

In the blink of an eye, a month had passed. During this period, although Shen Siyuan was mostly idling at home every day, quite a few things happened.

For instance, Ruan Hongzhuang and Taozi fully accepted the gifts sent by Xiajing.

Another example is that Shen Siyuan’s Ten Thousand Soul Banner was significantly restored, thanks mainly to the Special Affairs Bureau’s push for charity, which indeed helped a lot of people.

Of course, part of the credit also goes to the two couples, Tao Guangsha and Lin Libo. With money in place, things naturally progressed rapidly.

In addition to this, order in the Qiongzhou Netherworld was greatly restored, and even the external evil forces were almost completely cleaned up.

Of course, this wasn’t due to the hard work of a few little ones these days; their efforts were completely insignificant compared to the vast Qiongzhou Netherworld. It was primarily because Shen Siyuan’s Ten Thousand Soul Banner was mostly restored.

The Soul Banner fluttered, shrouding the entire Qiongzhou Netherworld, making evil forces almost invisible, all captured into the Ten Thousand Soul Banner.

In the past, Shen Siyuan feared being backfired by the Ten Thousand Soul Banner, as it was a Demonic Magical Artifact, harmful to others and to himself.

But since it was restored by the Merit Golden Light, these side effects almost completely disappeared, allowing Shen Siyuan to use it without any scruples.

Additionally, Ruan Hongzhuang was often busy, frequently flying between Si Ming and Bin Hai. She wasn’t just busy with work but also with the upcoming wedding.

In fact, there was no need for such efforts, as both parents were involved, so they didn’t need to worry at all.

For this, Shen Siyuan’s mother Huang Huijuan went to Si Ming early to discuss and arrange all the wedding matters with Jiang Yingxue.

But with Ruan Hongzhuang’s personality, how could she be at ease leaving everything to them? It wasn’t that she doubted their effectiveness, but she worried their arrangements might not align with her desires.

This was the most important moment of her life, and everything had to be perfect. For this, she even sent Taozi to Si Ming because Taozi understood her and knew what she wanted.

Who knows how she convinced Taozi to agree.

Though the two of them were like sisters, helping another woman arrange a wedding with her man always had a sort of NTR feeling.

"I’m busy to death, and you’re so leisurely."

Ruan Hongzhuang returned home, and seeing Shen Siyuan lying on the balcony with a fruit platter beside him, looking content and untroubled, she couldn’t help but feel annoyed.

"You’re back, must have been tiring." Shen Siyuan glanced at her and said.

Ruan Hongzhuang sat down beside him, kicked off her slippers, and let her ten toes fully relax before taking a long breath.

"Aren’t you worried about the wedding at all?" Ruan Hongzhuang asked with a hint of grievance in her voice.

She was taking the wedding very seriously, but Shen Siyuan seemed utterly indifferent, as if he didn’t care at all. Such an attitude made Ruan Hongzhuang feel uncomfortable.

Shen Siyuan turned to look at her and said with a smile, "It shows that I trust you both a lot."

"You just know how to say sweet things." Ruan Hongzhuang frowned slightly in dissatisfaction.

"Alright, don’t frown. How do you know I haven’t prepared at all?" Shen Siyuan chuckled.

Hearing this, Ruan Hongzhuang’s eyes lit up. She knew Shen Siyuan wasn’t one to make baseless claims.

"What have you prepared?" Ruan Hongzhuang’s voice was a bit raised.

"It’s a secret, I can’t tell you now," Shen Siyuan replied.

Ruan Hongzhuang pursed her lips, feeling a cat-like curiosity, but knowing that if Shen Siyuan didn’t want to say, continuing to ask would be futile.

She could only be patient and wait. This was actually quite nice, as having expectations leads to surprises.

Just then, Tang Tang suddenly scurried past the two of them.

"Oh~"

She looked up at Ruan Hongzhuang, gave a long "oh" as if greeting her, then hurried to the corner of the balcony, facing the outside wall, crouched down, hugged her head, stuck out her butt, looking like a groundhog, and let out a loud "Oh."

"What is she doing?" Ruan Hongzhuang asked in surprise.

But without a need for Shen Siyuan’s answer, she already knew.

"Are you hiding?" Dou Dou called from inside the house.

Then Dou Dou came rushing out.

Now, how could she not know what Tang Tang was up to?

But her hiding style, really, looked so funny.

"Are you hidden?"

"Here I come."

"Wow, you’re amazing, I can’t find you."

...

Ruan Hongzhuang watched as Dou Dou wandered around the balcony several times, often passing near Tang Tang but seemingly oblivious to her.

Ruan Hongzhuang laughed at the sight.

"This little thing, is she intentionally playing with Tang Tang?"

At this point, Dou Dou approached and asked the two, "Have you seen Tang Tang?"

Shen Siyuan didn’t answer, and Ruan Hongzhuang shook her head cooperatively, but her gaze fell on Tang Tang curled up in the corner. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

Dou Dou followed her gaze but quickly turned back, somewhat disappointed, heading inside.

"Was she really acting? Or..." Ruan Hongzhuang paused, perhaps it wasn’t acting at all.

"Can you see Tang Tang?" she turned to ask Shen Siyuan.

"Of course."

Ruan Hongzhuang, hearing this, breathed a sigh of relief, thinking she might be the only one who could see.

But just then, Shen Siyuan said, "Maybe she just doesn’t want Dou Dou to see her, so Dou Dou can’t."

"Huh? Is that it?" Ruan Hongzhuang was very surprised by this revelation.

Then she turned directly and called inside, "Dou Dou."

Dou Dou, who was searching all over inside, immediately turned her head.

"What’s up?"

"I know where Tang Tang is hiding," said Ruan Hongzhuang.

She spoke loudly, knowing Tang Tang couldn’t hear anyway.

"Where?" Dou Dou ran over excitedly.

"There, can’t you see?" Ruan Hongzhuang pointed to Tang Tang with her little bottom sticking out.

"Where?" Dou Dou looked in that direction, puzzled.

It turns out she wasn’t pretending earlier; she really couldn’t see Tang Tang.

"There."

"Sister Ruan, you’re lying," Dou Dou huffed and turned away.

Only then did Ruan Hongzhuang look at Shen Siyuan with surprise.

But Shen Siyuan remained calm.

"If that’s the case, this game would never end, would it?"

Certainly not, because Tang Tang also wanted Dou Dou to find her.

Obviously, this wasn’t the first game for the two of them.

Shen Siyuan continued, "At the start, Tang Tang didn’t want Dou Dou to find her, so Dou Dou couldn’t. But over time, Tang Tang would start hoping for the surprise of Dou Dou finding her, and at that moment, Dou Dou would naturally be able to find her..."

"Are wishes really effective?" Ruan Hongzhuang was greatly astonished.

"Something like that."

"Is she the heavens’ favored child?" Ruan Hongzhuang’s tone was filled with envy.

"Something like that."

"Really?" Ruan Hongzhuang’s eyes widened.

Shen Siyuan smiled but didn’t explain further.

At this moment, Tang Tang looked back at the two, glanced around, not seeing Dou Dou, carefully stood up, tiptoed through the two of them, and into the living room.

Then a high-pitched scream from Dou Dou and Tang Tang’s silly laughter was heard.
