When the Sheng family drove to pick them up, they saw them standing in a row under the eaves. Their heads and bodies were all wet, but they were smiling more happily than the other, as if what was falling from the sky was not rain but gold.
After returning home, they were immediately driven back to the room to take a shower.
Aunt Qin made ginger tea, and when they came downstairs, each of them drank a cup.
On a rare leisurely afternoon, the heavy rain outside blocked the road. A room full of people sat on the sofa in the living room.
The two children stood in the middle, with blushes on their faces. Sheng Hengrong gestured their great achievements today with his hands and feet, and Su Li’an would retort to him from time to time to prevent him from stealing the show alone.
Having just taken a shower and wrapped in comfortable clothes, Su Yi felt even more comfortable. She leaned back on the sofa, watching the two kids vying with each other to brag, wondering whether she should expose the bragging of these two kids or not.
The seat next to her sank slightly. She turned her head and saw that it was Sheng Yunzhou who sat down. He brought a dessert plate from the kitchen and placed it in front of her with juice.
“Thanks.”
Su Yi smiled slightly, picked up a matcha puff, and put it in her mouth, whispering: “Look at the two of them. They are bragging too much.”
It just so happened that Sheng Hengrong said that he caught a very big fish with a small bucket, but he let it go because it was too big to bring back. However, Su Li’an said that the one he caught was the biggest one. The two almost got into a quarrel because of the dispute over who was the biggest.
Sheng Yunzhou smiled and said, “It’s just children’s talk. As long as they are happy with it, that’s fine.”
Su Yi pouted and said, “If they brag at such a young age, won’t they be full of lies and deceive girls when they grow up?”
Sheng Yunzhou wisely didn’t continue to refute and picked a piece of cream cookie from the plate for her.
With food, Su Yi put aside the issue of educating children. Anyway, she didn’t really think that it was a big deal for such a small child to brag a few words. She just wanted to tease them out of boredom.
Seeing the interaction between the two of them, the other adults present exchanged glances privately.
Mrs. Xu, Aunt Qin, and others were fine. They were used to the scene, and there was nothing to do except secretly happy. It was Lin Luoluo who felt a little embarrassed.
In her eyes, Sheng Yunzhou was an elder, and Su Yi could now be considered her friend.
When the two of them sat together, their words and actions were somewhat intimate, which no one else could interrupt.
If she looked at them for a second longer, she felt as if she had accidentally seen someone else’s privacy, which made her feel uncomfortable.
Listening to the slightly noisy voices of the two children, eating delicious food, and the group of people around her, all exuding kindness and friendliness, despite the violent storm outside, the house seemed so warm.
Su Yi’s eyebrows and eyes relaxed. The corners of her mouth curled up. She felt that such time could be longer.
But before she could finish her thought, her expression froze. When she closed her eyes and opened them again, she was already in a void.
Mao Tuan condensed into a shape and asked in surprise: [What’s wrong, Yi Yi?]
Su Yi’s expression still had the gentleness she had when she came out of that room, but there was a hint of coldness in the corners of her eyes.
“Someone has touched the barrier. I need to go out.”
Mao Tuan was startled and immediately asked again: [What about this world?]
Su Yi knew that if she left, her identity in this world would be assumed to be dead. Mao Tuan had a way to make up the plot, but the character Su Yi would be missing. In the original book, didn’t she disappear early?
But thinking of the people in the room just now, she hesitated for a moment and asked, “Is there a way to stop time at the moment I left?”
[Yes, there is, but doing so will consume your own abilities.]
“Let’s do it this way.” Sui Yi decided immediately and left without waiting for Mao Tuan to say anything.
It had not been long since she entered the Reincarnation Mirror. Su Yi’s territory was not very dilapidated, but the entire cave was filled with a rotten smell that did not belong to her.
She originally thought that a demon had come to steal her territory. But when she walked outside the magic circle and saw the dark and shapeless mass in the hall, she realized that it was not an external enemy, but an internal thief.
The demon had a faint smell of the old demon servant, but it was more messy and smelly than before. If a person with an undetermined mind smelled such a smell, he/she would probably be possessed by the demon.
The old demon servant was ultimately harmed by his own greed and devoured too many other demons. With his own cultivation level, he could not control it at all.
Now that those foul miasma had broken through his body, he had become a dead thing that only knew how to devour greedily and had no self-awareness.
Su Yi had defeated many such opponents before. Seeing that this time the invasion was of this kind, she breathed a sigh of relief.
Just as she was thinking about the best response plan to avoid the stench from getting on herself, not far away, the cave belonging to the demon wolf suddenly erupted with a wave.
Su Yi looked over intently and saw that the stone door of the cave opened from the inside. The demon wolf walked out with steady steps.
It had clearly only been a few months since the last time the two of them were in seclusion, but when Su Yi saw him, she felt as if she were in a different world.
The demon wolf looked at her. His cold eyes seemed to flash with a bit of guilt, but he immediately looked at the filthy thing in the hall with a chill. He walked a few steps closer and stood in front of Su Yi.
Su Yi narrowed her eyes and looked at his back.
The Reincarnation Mirror was her magic weapon. After the time was frozen, the demon wolf forced its way out of it, so it was bound to suffer some internal injuries.
Why was he still standing in front of her at this time?
Did he think he could show off his power just because he was bigger?
Su Yi kicked him.
*****
The author has something to say:
Demon Wolf: Aggrieved, turned around, and beat the invader.
Intruder: Even more aggrieved.
Translator: Even more aggrieved. Turned around and stopped the translation.
