Zhou Xia hurriedly parked the car, and Gu Qiaoqiao quickly opened the door and got out. It had been a long ti since she had seen Ling Nan and Xiao Bai, and Gu Qiaoqiao grinned, very happy.
Before she could walk forward, Xiao Bai, like a white streak of light, leapt into Gu Qiaoqiao’s embrace. If Gu Qiaoqiao hadn’t been prepared, this little thing would have knocked her over.
Gu Qiaoqiao held Xiao Bai and affectionately tapped Xiao Bai’s nose, then looked at Ling Nan happily and said, "Ling Nan, you’ve grown taller and look stronger. How is it, have you learned a lot from Uncle?"
Ling Nan smiled honestly and sowhat awkwardly, scratching the back of his head, then nodded vigorously. But because he was too happy to see Gu Qiaoqiao, he only managed to say, "Sister Qiaoqiao." And didn’t say anything else.
Knowing Ling Nan’s personality, sotis like a shy fool, not much of a talker, Gu Qiaoqiao didn’t embarrass him. Instead, she chuckled and looked ahead.
At this mont, the villa in the distance stood quietly under the afternoon sun, a breeze blew past, and the air was filled with a faint floral scent.
This place wasn’t close to the city, and it seed few people had visited.
Apart from the chirping of birds, there was just the sound of the wind rustling through the leaves.
Suddenly, Gu Qiaoqiao heard sothing running behind her. She quickly turned around and saw a gray rabbit hopping out from the roadside bushes onto the road, scratching itself, seemingly oblivious to the nearby car and people. At this mont, Xiao Bai squinted her purple cat eyes, then arched her body and darted forward like an arrow from a bow.
It all happened too quickly.
Just as Gu Qiaoqiao turned her head.
Initially, Gu Qiaoqiao was leisurely watching the little rabbit posing on the road, but unexpectedly saw a white shadow next to her and realized Xiao Bai had already pinned the gray rabbit to the road.
Gu Qiaoqiao opened her mouth to say sothing, and just then Ling Nan quickly ran over, grabbed the rabbit, lifted its long ears, and laughed happily at Gu Qiaoqiao, "Qiaoqiao, let’s have roast rabbit tonight."
Before Gu Qiaoqiao could speak, Zhou Xia stepped forward and grabbed Gu Qiaoqiao’s arm, her eyes shining, "You wouldn’t want to let it go, would you?"
Gu Qiaoqiao looked at the scene before her. How could she release it? The gray rabbit was already frightened to death by Xiao Bai’s pounce.
But she didn’t say, lest Zhou Xia see that Xiao Bai was scary.
Xiao Bai is more ferocious than wolves, you know.
Now, there’s still so distance to the villa, and this road leads into the estate. Gu Qiaoqiao waved to Ling Nan, "You and Xiao Bai get in the car, let’s go in together."
Ling Nan shook his hand, saying loudly, "Sister Qiaoqiao, no need, Xiao Bai and I can just run alongside."
With that, Ling Nan picked up the rabbit and jogged ahead to lead the way, while Xiao Bai busily darted around in front of the car.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Bai is now so lively.
Rember before, Xiao Bai was very lazy and always liked sticking by her side. But now, back with the old owner, she no longer needs her. Gu Qiaoqiao pouted, but still glared at the heartless Xiao Bai.
Zhou Xia drove the car slowly and soon reached the end of the road with the car and everyone.
This is the parking spot.
Surrounding are dense phoenix trees, now during the ti when the phoenix leaves are lush, sunlight dappling through the leaves like a pastoral picture.
At this mont, an elegant man in a dark blue casual outfit walked unhurriedly out of the villa.
Gu Qiaoqiao excitedly waved and shouted loudly, "Uncle, we et again."
Gu Junbai couldn’t help but smile, not seeing Qiaoqiao for days, she’s still the sa, like a child.
But Gu Qiaoqiao has gained more and more rit Light on her.
Comparable to Ah Ze, he can’t determine where these two will end up.
However, everything has its rules, and it’s best to let things run their natural course.
Gu Qiaoqiao didn’t expect not a single servant was in the villa, but it made sense. This is a temporary residence, and the Gu Family Ancestor likes quietness, disliking anyone nearby. Even taking Ling Nan out is quite good.
Gu Qiaoqiao also learned this villa actually belonged to the Gu Family Ancestor. It was given by soone he helped years ago and kept here for many years. But his friend would regularly maintain it every year, so the villa looks clean and not unfamiliar, with so decor sporting exotic features yet retaining oriental elegance, perfectly combining the two, a refreshing view.
Ling Nan took the curious Zhou Xia to tour the villa.
There are many oriental items here, certainly novel for Zhou Xia, though her parents are Huaxia people, she has never returned since birth. The intricately painted beauties and floral bird pictures, ancient celadon vases, oriental-thed carpets, all seemingly narrating old and mysterious stories from the east.
So Zhou Xia happily followed Ling Nan to tour the villa. Naturally, Zhou Xia was a smart girl, knowing that Qiaoqiao had important things to discuss with her uncle.
Thus, Zhou Xia wisely excused herself.
Now, only Gu Qiaoqiao and Gu Junbai remained in the villa’s hall.
Gu Qiaoqiao explained her discovery to Gu Junbai again in detail. Gu Junbai was calm, not surprised at all. Gu Qiaoqiao was rather curious. She ate a slice of waterlon, moistened her throat, "Uncle, you seem familiar with the Black Angels Clan."
Gu Junbai nodded, "Yes, it’s not unfamiliar; I interacted with them before."
"Can you tell about them? Are they powerful? Plus, this was the first ti I’d seen people with wings on their backs. Initially, I thought they were transford from Black Crows."
Gu Junbai chuckled, "They’re not Black Crows; they’re another branch of the Divine Clan. Their clan is divided into two factions, one being the White Angels Clan ruling the sunlight, the other Black Angels ruling the darkness. But they exist in another world, and because of a rift in ti and space, so Divine Clan people got lost here, forming the Western Mystic Sect, which is quite similar to ours in the East."
"Oh, so that’s how it is," Gu Qiaoqiao nodded knowingly.
