The Lovely Heiress Is Actually A God Beast

”Little cutie, is that old fellow Shen Cang fierce?”

”Head Grandpa?” Little Taotie answered softly, ”Head Grandpa isn’t fierce, he always conjures up a lot of delicious things!”

”Tsk! Still the same as back then, with a poker face, yet a food-loving cat, his drawer always hiding a bunch of snacks.”

Little Taotie’s eyes lit up, ”How do you know Head Grandpa’s drawer has a lot of snacks?”

Mo Haihao’s mouth dropped slightly open, this was the first time he’d heard that the seemingly serious head had a drawer full of little snacks.

This feeling of contrast... uh, it’s kind of cute, what’s going on?

”When I was young and hungry, all I had to do was open his drawer, and I’d be full!” The elderly man laughed heartily, ”Child, go back and tell your Head Grandpa, I’ll pay him a visit someday.”

Little Taotie obediently nodded and waved at him, ”Goodbye, Grandpa Lan.”

After the two walked away, the gentle big sister in the white coat next to the elderly man asked in confusion, ”Uncle, did you tell her your surname is Lan?”

The middle-aged man squinted his eyes and smiled, ”Kids from the Special Department always have some extraordinary talents.”

She looked at the wooden box, ”Uncle, inside this...”

”I’ll draw what it looks like, and then you’ll know how ugly this thing is. No idea what kind of crazy person likes making this stuff. Collect everything here, don’t break any of the bottles and jars.”

...

Back at the Special Department, Mo Haihao felt today was a bit unlucky, those things hurt his eyes.

At the entrance of the Ancient Castle, Little Taotie saw Hua Jinyan and ran up, ”Why haven’t you gone back?”

”I found out you went on a mission after I came back, so I’ve been waiting here. It’s not fun going back alone.”

”You must have been waiting for a long time then?”

”Not too long.”

Yuanyuan, munching on beef jerky, exposed him, ”As soon as you left, he came back, and he’s been waiting here, wouldn’t listen when we told him to go back first.”

Hua Jinyan pulled a small face, ”Going back alone wastes gas.”

Little Taotie covered her mouth and giggled, ”You missed me, didn’t you?”

Hua Jinyan: ”...” Although that’s true, with you laughing like that, I don’t really want to admit it, it feels kind of embarrassing.

As Little Taotie met Hua Jinyan’s slightly resentful gaze, she reached out, took his hand, and whispered, ”Today’s mission was completed by me, I was awesome! Want to know what the mission was?”

Hua Jinyan raised an eyebrow and looked at her, ”Can you tell?”

Little Taotie stuck out her tongue, ”I can’t, I was just teasing you!”

Mo Haihao parked the car and came back, lifting Little Taotie by the scruff, ”Let’s go, time to see the head.”

Little Taotie was lifted away like a little chick, turning back to shout to Hua Jinyan, ”Wait for me, I’ll go ask Head Grandpa if I can tell you, if I can, I’ll come back and tell you!”

At the office door, Mo Haihao put Little Taotie down, tidied his hair, and prepared to knock, but before his hand touched the door, it opened by itself, and Shen Cang’s calm voice came from inside, ”Come in.”

Mo Haihao led the way in, with Little Taotie following behind, eyes sparkling.

”What do you want to say?” Shen Cang asked calmly.

Mo Haihao took a deep breath, ”I can’t understand it, this matter should be ours, I suspect it’s related to the previous thing.”

Little Taotie blinked, suddenly remembering the experiment lab beneath the Haunted House.

It seemed... somewhat similar.

Shen Cang said lightly, ”Whether there is a relation or not is insignificant, you just need to complete your task, then come back, it’s that simple, don’t you get it?”

”There’s a case clearly, why give it to someone else? I just don’t get it!”
