Shi Guang sat in the courtyard, gnawing on an apple, and said, "Aunt, I’m here to see your child prodigy."
The term "child prodigy" made Beisitian frown slightly, and she said, "He’s gone to kindergarten."
Shi Guang rested an elbow on the stone table and said, "Can the child prodigy really perform Spiritual Talisman?"
Beisitian glanced at him lightly, "How did the nickna ’child prodigy’ co about?"
Shi Guang shrugged, "Able to perform Spiritual Talisman at five years old, isn’t that a child prodigy!"
For Beisitian, as a mother, she resented this term not because it was bad, but because it was too good, which was what she worried about.
Luo Yirui hears people calling him a child prodigy and a little genius every day. After a long ti, how will he perceive it? Will he really think of himself as a child prodigy, a little genius, and thus stop making efforts, halting his progress?
Seeing the worry on Beisitian’s face, Shi Guang beca sowhat serious. He tossed the apple core in a parabolic arc into the trash can.
"It seems you realize this problem, Aunt."
Beisitian looked at him and noticed a faint hint of coldness flash in his eyes.
"It’s better not to spoil the child too much; this is a kind of stifling for him," Shi Guang said.
Under twenty years old, yet the boy’s words seed sowhat severe.
Beisitian looked at Shi Guang’s expression, raised an eyebrow slightly, and said, "What?"
Shi Guang’s expression quickly changed again, with a smile reappearing. He said, "I’m just afraid you’ll beco complacent, Aunt, so I ca to remind you. How about it? Am I not thoughtful? Is there any reward for ?"
Beisitian rolled her eyes at him, "You’ve already had your reward earlier."
Shi Guang’s face fell, "I can’t believe your fa has grown, but you’ve beco more stingy. You used to treat to a big al, now just an apple?"
Beisitian smiled without speaking and then asked, "How long are you staying in Beijing this ti?"
"I don’t know. I’m here for serious business, a huge affair, and no one outside knows it yet. I’m the reconnaissance team," Shi Guang said.
Beisitian made a sound, seeing Zhuangzhuang dash through the courtyard rrily.
Shi Guang held back for a long ti, waiting for just a sound, feeling a bit upset, "Aunt, aren’t you going to ask what the big affair is?"
"Oh? What kind of big affair?" Beisitian followed his lead and asked.
Shi Guang was choked with frustration, glaring at Beisitian—he ca with news, and this was her attitude!
Beisitian shook her head with a laugh, "Go on, tell what it’s about." This ti, her attitude was much more serious.
Shi Guang snorted and then said, "I can’t discuss too much. The Shi Family is planning sothing big in the Jingjinji area, so keep an eye out, but try not to get involved."
He ca specifically to remind Beisitian.
Beisitian nodded, "Okay, I will keep an eye on it."
Shi Guang stood up, "Alright, I’m off. I’ve got an appointnt to eat roast duck at Quanjude, and while I’m here, I plan to try all the famous dishes in Beijing."
With this great ambition, he left. Beisitian sat in the courtyard, pondering. Despite Shi Guang’s youth, he was quite calculating. Ordinary matters wouldn’t warrant such a warning; there was likely to be so dispute.
Just as she was thinking, there was a noise at the door. Beisitian turned her head to see Bei Jiale and Zhao Yilun coming in from outside.
The two looked dusty but in good spirits.
"Sis, what’s the story with Little Xuegao?" Bei Jiale asked as soon as she walked in.
Now, wherever you are in the circle, you can hear about Luo Yirui from the Qingyu School.
Beisitian knew she was genuinely concerned and didn’t keep her in suspense, explaining the situation to her.
"So, Little Xuegao can indeed perform Spiritual Talisman?" Bei Jiale’s eyes sparkled with delight.
Zhao Yilun’s face showed shock. To be honest, he hadn’t believed it until he ca back, and it had even caused a tiff with Bei Jiale.
Beisitian nodded, her face calm, and said, "I called you back this ti because I want you to check Little Rui’s body."
Bei Jiale, touching her chin. They’ve always paid attention to the spirit of the three children, but they usually focused only on the two girls regarding their physical condition. Luo Yirui was sowhat overlooked, but he had surprised them. If it wasn’t a matter of spirit, then it must be his physique.
"Sure, I’ll test him with my power when the ti cos," Bei Jiale said mischievously.
Zhao Yilun had already gone to the side room to rest, leaving the two sisters to talk.
"Oh my! Xiao Bei, how did you beco two!" Desan’s figure appeared at the door, looking at them in surprise.
Beisitian bead, "This is my latest research achievent, called the Clone Talisman!"
Desan: "..." Who are you kidding!
Desan circled around Bei Jiale twice, clicking his tongue, "You’re Bei Jiale, right? Old Luo said you two look exactly alike. I didn’t believe it before, but now I see it’s true, even down to the pores!"
Old Luo is Luo Anguo.
Beisitian: "..." Third Doctor, please be serious!
Bei Jiale was also assessing Desan, and she was quite surprised by his spirit’s fullness. Wasn’t he supposed to be an improper uncle no worse than her sister!
"Old man, not so young, but your eyesight’s sharp," Bei Jiale said with a cheeky grin.
Desan was delighted, this girl hit right on his soft spot~
At this mont, Qiao Hongjie also arrived. Whenever Beisitian was ho, Qiao Hongjie would usually pop by.
Upon seeing Bei Jiale, he couldn’t help but marvel, although he had heard about her twin sister before, he hadn’t expected them to look so alike.
After getting acquainted, Qiao Hongjie said, "Xiao Bei, the poisonous insects you ntioned were indeed bred by those Mystic Doctors, but neither Brother De nor I are experts in this area. To understand further, we’d need to find a professional."
These things, originally, very few Mystic Doctors were skilled with them. Those studying such things in history were notoriously infamous, so when these things appear, they are synonymous with villains.
Beisitian was puzzled too—where were they supposed to find a knowledgeable person? She wasn’t well-acquainted with this area either.
Just then, Desan suddenly said, "I do know soone who has remarkable research in this field, but I haven’t seen them in over ten years, so I don’t know if they’re still there."
Beisitian was pleased and urged Desan to tell more, just in case they were still around.
Desan took out a map, recalled carefully, then pointed to a branch of a mountain range in the North and said, "I last got word that he was here."
Beside him, Bei Jiale suddenly exclaid, "I just ca back from there."
