Chapter 71
Chapter 71
Although Xiao Nuan couldn't see Tang Tang, she felt as if she could sense her presence.
Zhi Yao sighed and began to translate for Tang Tang, "Xiao Nuan, Tang Tang says she's going to reincarnate now. She wants you to take good care of yourself, and if you have the fate, you two will meet again."
Xiao Nuan's tears rolled down uncontrollably, but she was very sensible and wiped away her tears herself, saying, "Okay! Tang Tang sis, I'll wait for you. I believe we will definitely meet again..."
After bidding farewell to Xiao Nuan, Tang Tang and her mother didn't leave.
Instead, Xiao Nuan, after crying herself tired, fell asleep directly.
Tang Tang walked to Xiao Nuan's side and hugged her in the void.
After completing all this, Tang Tang suddenly produced something from her hand, "Sis, here's this back to you."
In her hand was a translucent jade stone. "Sis, I have to go now. Thank you, sis. You're such a great person. If I have a chance, I'll repay you too."
Zhi Yao opened her mouth but before she could say anything, Tang Tang had already disappeared.
Tang Tang's mother's body also became transparent, but before completely disappearing, she hurriedly left a sentence, "Miss Zhi Yao, your mother... is still alive..."
Zhi Yao didn't catch the rest of her words before they both left.
Mother? Her own mother?
Her mother was still alive??
Zhi Yao was overjoyed but then fell into despair.
She couldn't sense her mother's presence at all... Even if her mother was alive, she had no idea where to look for her.
The little girl dejectedly tucked Tang Tang in, then got up to leave.
As soon as she opened the door, she saw Xie Qinzhou sitting on the sofa, holding a book and leisurely flipping through it.
Seeing Zhi Yao come out, he nodded in greeting again, "Xiao Nuan fell asleep?"
Zhi Yao responded with an "mm," her mind elsewhere.
However, Xie Qinzhou suddenly noticed the jade stone Zhi Yao was holding and seemed surprised.
"That thing in your hand..."
Zhi Yao then noticed that she was still holding the jade stone Tang Tang had given her. She was about to hide it when Xie Qinzhou smiled, "No need to hide it. It's a good thing and will greatly benefit you."
He stood up and walked towards Zhi Yao, "Do you mind giving it to me for a moment?"
For some reason, Zhi Yao felt a fondness for him in her heart, perhaps because his eyes were too much like her own kind. Thus, Zhi Yao had an unconditional trust in him.
"Here."
She raised her hand and handed the jade stone to Xie Qinzhou.
But the next second, Xie Qinzhou's actions left Zhi Yao stunned.
Accompanied by a "crack" sound, he actually crushed the jade stone into powder! Moreover, it crumbled into a pile of powder, from which a translucent liquid flowed out.
"You..." Zhi Yao was greatly shocked. Before she could say anything more, Xie Qinzhou then raised his hand and tapped Zhi Yao's space between the eyebrows.
Zhi Yao instantly felt dizzy and shook her head hard, almost fainting. Fortunately, Xie Qinzhou caught Zhi Yao in time and said, "Come back to your senses."
Accompanied by his mellow voice, Zhi Yao suddenly regained her senses, and the dizziness gradually subsided, leaving her mind clear.
She stared at Xie Qinzhou in a daze, recalling his actions just now, quite puzzled.
Xie Qinzhou only smiled slightly, his smile gentle, "The flower between your brows is very beautiful, but it would reveal your identity. You should know that the human world is dangerous. Even with Pei Chiyao protecting you, you still need to be extra careful."
After saying this, he released the hand that had supported Zhi Yao.
"I have something else to do. See you next time."
With those words, he turned and left. Thus, Zhi Yao didn't see the dark glint that flashed in his eyes.
Flower...
The little girl was still in a daze. Thinking of this, she hurriedly took out her phone, opened the front camera, but when she saw the image, Zhi Yao was completely stunned.
Her birthmark... was gone!!!
This birthmark had accompanied Zhi Yao for a long time.
From the first day she turned human, she had this kind of birthmark on her forehead.
Now, this birthmark was gone?!
She couldn't help but think of Xie Qinzhou's actions just now...
What was going on?
...
Until the wrap-up party, Zhi Yao remained in a dazed state.
It wasn't until people around her stood up that she heard a name she was all too familiar with - Pei Chiyao.
Zhi Yao then came to her senses.
She raised her head and looked towards Pei Chiyao. As expected, Pei Chiyao's gaze was also on Zhi Yao.
From the moment he walked in, Pei Chiyao was a little surprised that Zhi Yao wasn't eating, but daydreaming instead.
The moment the little girl raised her head, Pei Chiyao immediately sensed something was amiss.
Zhi Yao was a little uneasy in her heart. At that time, she hadn't reacted, but afterwards, she had fully relived the experience.
Xie Qinzhou... Xie Qinzhou must have seen through her identity!
She clutched her dress, twisting it until the fabric became wrinkled.
Everyone knew that Pei Chiyao didn't like social events, so they didn't expect him to come and socialize with them. They only greeted him briefly.
Fortunately, Brother Sun had a social superpower. He came with Pei Chiyao, and with him around, the atmosphere at the next table instantly ignited.
With a "shrill" sound, Pei Chiyao pulled out the seat next to Zhi Yao and sat down beside her.
As soon as Zhi Yao saw him, she clung to him like a drowning person clutching a lifeline, grabbing his sleeve. Just as she was about to speak, Pei Chiyao raised his hand, placing his index finger on Zhi Yao's lips, and said, "Talk at home. Eat first, aren't you hungry?"
Zhi Yao nodded and obediently said, "Hungry."
She was starving, but whenever she thought about her identity being exposed, she couldn't eat.
It wasn't just about being taken to a lab anymore. What if Pei Chiyao got implicated because of her? What would she do then?
As she was lost in thought, Pei Chiyao placed a lobster on Zhi Yao's plate, "Eat."
The little girl absentmindedly picked up the lobster, took a bite, and a crisp sound rang in her ear. Immediately, Zhi Yao couldn't help but cry out, "Ah!"
She hurriedly spat it out and glared at Pei Chiyao, "Pei Chiyao, did you do that on purpose!"
Pei Chiyao chuckled softly but admitted openly, "Yes."
What he loved most was seeing Zhi Yao's adorable antics, making him want to devour her whole.
Before the little girl could get angry, the next second, her mouth was stuffed with a peeled lobster dipped in sauce, juicy and fragrant. Xiao Nuan immediately narrowed her eyes in delight.
