Chapter 578: Chapter 578: Obtaining a White Hair
Shen Cang: “…”
Xiangxiang: “…”
So children may seem obedient and adorable most of the ti, but once they beco mischievous, not even ten oxen can pull them back.
Shen Cang tried to pull his arm back.
There was no helping it, Little Taotie was strong!
Shen Cang looked at Xiangxiang and said gravely, “Pull her off.”
Xiangxiang blinked her beautiful eyes, shrugged, and spread her hands: “Boss, you’re overestimating .”
She clearly rembered that not long ago, in a mont of excitent, Little Taotie had cracked a table with a single slap.
How could she dare to pull soone away?
What if she got caught in the crossfire?
Her skinny arms and legs simply weren’t a match for Little Taotie’s several slaps.
Shen Cang again tried to pull back his hand, attempting to extract the arm that the little one was clutching tightly.
There was no helping it!
Shen Cang sighed with a worn-out air.
“What exactly do you want?”
Little Taotie raised her tiny face, which was reddened with pique, and her milky voice trembled: “I want to investigate the case of the Paper Man!”
Shen Cang pressed his temples, feeling a headache.
Another hourglass’s worth of stalemate passed.
Finally, Shen Cang relented: “Let go, I promise you.”
Little Taotie cheered, releasing her grip.
Shen Cang sighed with fatigue, took a clear bottle from the drawer, plucked a white hair to put into the bottle, and handed it to Little Taotie.
“If you encounter danger, open the bottle cap.”
Little Taotie took the bottle, her eyes gleaming: “Just like last ti in the abandoned hospital, when the captain opened the bottle cap and you appeared like Ghost!”
“It’s not turning into Ghost,” Shen Cang pressed his temples again, “it’s ‘Soul Out of Body.’
“Anyway, it’s very powerful!” Little Taotie was overjoyed and placed the small bottle in an inner pocket of her clothes, patted it and giggled: “Whenever I miss Head Grandpa, I’ll open the bottle cap to et him!”
Shen Cang: “…”
Xiangxiang felt a bead of sweat on her forehead and sensed that if Little Taotie kept fluttering around in front of their boss, he was going to pass out of suffocation soon.
Xiangxiang coughed: “Little Taotie, since the boss has agreed, let’s set off early. Let’s not waste ti.”
Little Taotie nodded obediently.
Seeing her obedient and adorable appearance at this mont, Shen Cang recalled her petulance just before, twitched the corner of his mouth slightly, closed his eyes, and chose not to look any longer.
Little Taotie was led out by Xiangxiang. Just before leaving the office, she turned back and shouted to Shen Cang: “Head Grandpa, I’ll definitely crack the case!”
Shen Cang: “…” A case that was already solved, what’s there to crack?
Downstairs, Xiangxiang exhaled a breath, touched Little Taotie’s forehead with her finger, and laughed sweetly: “Naughty!”
Little Taotie covered the place where the little bottle was, touched the bottle, and felt utterly delighted inside.
Hua Jinyan looked up and saw Xiangxiang leading Little Taotie back. Before the two could speak, he asked: “Can we start investigating the Paper Man case now?”
Xiangxiang, surprised: “How did you know?”
Hua Jinyan returned the question without answering: “She must have gone to see the boss, right?”
Xiangxiang teased: “She hassled him for a long ti, soft-pedaling and hard-pressing, she was just short of throwing a tantrum on the floor.”
Hua Jinyan thought of Little Taotie’s daily video chats with Xiao Lingzhi and pretty much guessed who had taught her all these tricks.
Little Taotie ca over to Hua Jinyan, unzipped the zipper to show him her inner pocket.
She moved too quickly for Hua Jinyan to see anything, leaving him with a puzzled frown.
Little Taotie covered her mouth and giggled secretly, leaning in to whisper in his ear: “It’s Head Grandpa’s hair! If I want to see him, I just have to open the bottle cap, and his Primordial Spirit will appear before right away! So cool!”
Hua Jinyan: “…For him, the consumption must be significant; don’t use it carelessly.”
