The Darling of Heaven Owns a Rip-off Shop

Dong Xiao was stunned for a moment, then understood what Li Suyi meant. He nodded and said, ”Alright, you go ahead and get busy. Look through the case files, then deal with them one by one.”

Watching Li Suyi’s back, Dong Xiao turned his head to look at Kong Hou, who had suddenly appeared beside him.

”What’s wrong?” Dong Xiao asked.

”I keep feeling that humans are sometimes really scary...” Kong Hou muttered in a low, stuffy voice. ”Human nature is really complicated.”

”There are also very good humans,” Dong Xiao comforted him.

”I know, but I still feel that humans really are...” Kong Hou remained dejected.

”My master and I won’t let you get hurt. We’ll protect you.” Dong Xiao smiled gently, reached out, and rubbed Kong Hou’s head.

”I, I... I’m very strong too. I can protect you as well!” Feeling the warmth of Dong Xiao’s palm, Kong Hou awkwardly stammered. Yet his heart was inexplicably warmed.

”Yes, yes, Kong Hou is very strong too.” Dong Xiao nodded with a squinting smile. ”Alright, let’s go sort out the information together. Let’s hurry up and correct this world. The next world should be the modern one you like, where you can play games and eat snacks.”

”Really?” Kong Hou asked happily.

”Really.” Dong Xiao nodded.

”Then let’s go, let’s go, let’s hurry and finish this.” Kong Hou perked up.

...

Su Yu arrived at the East Sea.

Because too many people had stationed themselves on the East Sea’s beach, it had already formed into a settlement, which everyone had named East Sea Village. This village was expanding, with the tendency of becoming a small town. It was believed that in the near future, it would grow into a city.

The East Sea’s port was utterly deserted.

It wasn’t that no one wanted to come and see it, but that anyone without the qualification to enter the East Sea could not set foot on the port at all.

When Su Yu stepped onto the port, many people gathered to watch.

She was the first person to step onto the port.

The instant Su Yu set foot on the port, a gigantic ship appeared on the surface of the sea. In the blink of an eye, it sailed into the harbor and berthed at the side.

Su Yu boarded the massive vessel with Yuanyuan, her emotions surging. This ship had three full decks, like a luxurious multi-story pavilion.

Just as Su Yu and Yuanyuan stepped onto the ship, a voice sounded from behind them.

”Su Yu!” A man stood on the shore, calling out to her anxiously.

Su Yu turned her head, glanced at the man, then immediately looked away and led Yuanyuan toward the other side of the deck. In this lifetime, she never wanted to see this person again—her former husband, Kong Jinxu.

Kong Jinxu stood on the shore. He had tried, had tried with all his might to board the ship, but an immense invisible force blocked him. He watched as the figures of Su Yu and Yuanyuan disappeared from his sight, and in that instant, panic overwhelmed his heart.

The most important thing in the depths of his heart seemed on the verge of being completely lost.

What was it?

Was it that he would never achieve Ascension in this lifetime?

Or that the woman he had once loved deeply and the child would part from him forever?

He couldn’t tell.

He only knew that at this moment his heart was racked with unbearable pain.

”Who is that woman? What’s your relationship with her? Why can she go to the East Sea?” Quite a few people crowded around Kong Jinxu, bombarding him with questions.

”She’s bringing a child with her. That child looks a lot like you. What’s your relationship?”

”Anyone with grievances can go to the East Sea. Do you know what grievance she has?”

”...”

Kong Jinxu weakly waved his hand, unable to utter a single word, and staggered toward East Sea Village. He didn’t know where he could go, nor did he know what he should do next.
