Ten Thousand Soul Banner: Deceased, do you have any unfulfilled wishes?-Chapter 992 - 988: Visiting

"Sigh~"

Tang Tang placed her chubby little chin on the table, sounding weak and sighing.

Xiao Ya sat opposite her, holding a small toy train, moving it back and forth on the table, completely absorbed in her own world.

Ruan Hongzhuang found Tang Tang’s demeanor quite amusing, so she reached out and hugged her.

The little one immediately tilted her head up to look at Ruan Hongzhuang.

Her posture was unusual—most kids tilt their heads to the side, but she lifted hers straight up, pressing her head against Ruan Hongzhuang’s chest.

"Do you miss Dou Dou and the others?"

Ruan Hongzhuang chuckled as she pinched her cheek.

"Oh~"

Tang Tang seemed to understand Ruan Hongzhuang’s meaning and immediately acknowledged.

"I miss them too. And your Uncle Shen, if I don’t call him, he won’t call me. What do you say, should we go see how they’re doing?"

"Han~"

Tang Tang heard this and her little feet happily kicked up and down.

No sooner said than done, Ruan Hongzhuang turned to Xiao Ya and said, "Go call your Aunt Taozi."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Ya immediately ran inside with the toy train.

Soon, Xiao Ya came back pulling Taozi along. Taozi was wearing pajamas, her hair was messy, and she looked quite lazy.

"What do you need me for?" she said while yawning.

"You’re so lazy, coming home just to sleep."

"What else can I do besides sleep?"

Taozi sat directly opposite her, reached out to take an orange from the table, peeled it, stuffed half in her mouth, and gave the other half to Xiao Ya next to her.

Xiao Ya didn’t eat it alone and gave half to Tang Tang as well.

Ruan Hongzhuang and Taozi saw this and nodded to themselves.

Kids may not be smart, and they can be mischievous, but their character absolutely cannot be questionable.

They’re not saintly; even if Xiao Ya’s background is pitiable, if her character had issues, they wouldn’t keep her at home, but would definitely send her to a welfare institution with some financial support, which would already be the greatest kindness.

But for now, it seems Xiao Ya hasn’t become extreme due to life’s difficulties.

"Who knows where Si Yuan is on this journey? I’m thinking of calling him and going to see him."

"He should be in Chengdu, right? But he’s really something, if we don’t call him, he won’t call us, not even a message. What, leaving after getting everything they need?"

"That’s nonsense, what about the kids?" Ruan Hongzhuang playfully pinched her arm.

Taozi quickly pulled her arm back to avoid her.

"Han~"

Tang Tang saw them messing around and immediately showed a goofy smile.

Then saliva dripped down from the corner of her mouth, but she sucked it back in with a slurp.

This made the other three laugh, especially Xiao Ya, who laughed the loudest.

Ruan Hongzhuang picked up the phone, ready to call Shen Siyuan, but Taozi got anxious.

"Wait, wait..."

"What’s up?"

"Let me change my clothes and fix myself up," Taozi said.

She was really too messy as she was.

Ruan Hongzhuang was unconcerned, "What image of yours hasn’t Si Yuan seen?"

Hearing this, Taozi thought it over and realized it was true; he’s seen her in all states.

But she still wanted to tidy up.

So she went back to her room to change clothes, tidied her hair, and was about to go out when she ran into Mao Sanmei, whom she informed.

Otherwise, later on, if she couldn’t find Dou Dou and Xiao Ya, she’d definitely be worried.

When she returned to the balcony, she found Duoduo was already there waiting.

Tang Tang hugged her with a silly smile, clinging to her like a little kangaroo.

"Have you been waiting long?" Taozi asked, somewhat embarrassed.

"No," Duoduo sensibly shook her head.

"How could it be not? She even went home once already," Ruan Hongzhuang patted her little head.

Then she continued, "Alright, let’s not delay any longer, Si Yuan is waiting for us."

Under everyone’s gaze, Duoduo reached behind her and retrieved her Qiankun Umbrella.

Tang Tang saw this and, full of curiosity, reached out to touch Duoduo’s backside, not just touching, but also squeezing, even wanting to sneak a peek...

Yin and yang rotate, the Qiankun inverts.

The surrounding scenery blurred and stretched; in a breath, they traversed over sixteen hundred kilometers, from the southern end of Daxia, arriving directly at the vast Ta Gong Grassland.

"Wow~"

Xiao Ya was the first to look up at the starry sky.

The plateau’s night sky was crystal clear, like a meticulously polished piece of obsidian glass, with no clouds obstructing its view. The sky was a dazzling array of countless stars, so close it seemed you could scoop up a handful of starlight.

Such a night sky is rare to see in the plains.

"Oh~han~"

Tang Tang spotted Shen Siyuan first and immediately bolted towards him like a missile, arms open wide, ready for a warm hug.

Shen Siyuan, upon seeing her, was also filled with joy.

Having not seen each other for over a month, he missed her terribly.

However, just then, Tang Tang, originally smiling widely with open arms, suddenly changed her posture and expression.

Looking determined, she charged straight at Shen Siyuan.

"Ha o~"

She even shouted to pump herself up, causing everyone to laugh heartily.

If this Little Douding really crashed into someone, it wouldn’t hurt them, it probably wouldn’t even sting, but Shen Siyuan didn’t dare take that risk, because considering Tang Tang’s height, she’d hit him right where it hurt.

So he had to sidestep, letting her bump into his thigh. But because of the rebound, the little one fell straight back.

Luckily, Shen Siyuan was quick with his hands and caught her back into his arms.

But it was obvious that Tang Tang’s anger hadn’t subsided, as she reached out to pull at Shen Siyuan’s cheeks.

Usually, it’s adults doing that to kids, not often the other way around.

So when Tang Tang tugged but didn’t manage to, she tried again and it slipped.

The little one was stunned, and seeing Shen Siyuan still smiling, she got even more annoyed.

She directly reached out to pinch Shen Siyuan’s nose.

"Alright, alright, my bad, don’t be mad," Shen Siyuan quickly pleaded.

"Hmph~"

Tang Tang balled her little hands into fists, put them on her hips, and stood with her neck stiff, like an angry little teapot.

"Haha~, only learning the bad stuff, not the good, did Dou Dou teach you that?"

Dou Dou looked bewildered on the side, "I didn’t teach her that, I never get angry."

Duoduo: →_→

"Don’t look at me like that, if you keep looking at me like that, I really will get angry."

...

Even though Tang Tang was angry, she could be easily appeased. After Shen Siyuan coaxed her a bit, she had that silly smile on again, even planting a slobbery kiss on Shen Siyuan’s cheek.

Then she struggled out of Shen Siyuan’s embrace and dashed towards Dou Dou.

Dou Dou was shocked and immediately turned to run.

"Han~"

"Don’t come any closer..."

"Haha..."

Laughter echoed beneath the night sky of the grassland.
