Chapter 715: Chapter 715: Will This Trick Work?

At first, Xiao’ai, being nervous, showed no reaction on her face, and even in Ji Dong’s arms, she seemed very restrained.

But gradually, the little girl’s body became more and more relaxed, and eventually, when she heard a funny joke, she couldn’t help but giggle along.

The two young brothers heaved a sigh of relief, "Good, our little sister finally smiled."

Embracing Xiao’ai, Ji Dong heard the laughter beside his ear and, on his stern face, a tender smile appeared involuntarily.

Elsewhere.

Su Shu took the Fox to a secluded spot.

The Fox was initially quite puzzled.

However, when Su Shu started asking questions about Xiao’ai, the Fox suddenly adopted a serious expression.

"Let’s talk in the space," it said.

"Okay."

The two turned and entered the space.

It was supposed to be an infallible hiding spot, yet ironically, at that moment, a slight lapse drew someone’s gaze at an unnoticed blind spot where one man and one dog vanished suddenly.

Heaven...

Inside the space.

Upon entering the space, the Fox reverted to its true form.

Its bushy tail swaying back and forth, it seemed to be in a good mood.

The two sat down in the courtyard, and Su Shu got straight to the point.

"We went for a checkup today, but Xiao’ai was very unwilling; she strongly resisted it, and she mentioned she would be taken away. Do you know why?" she asked.

The Fox responded, "I’m not exactly sure why Xiao’ai is resisting, but the little girl often says some odd things that later on turn out to be quite accurate, so I think you might need to listen to her."

"If that’s the case, then I can’t let her go for the checkup."

She could risk anything, but she absolutely could not risk losing Xiao’ai.

After thinking, the Fox said, "I’ve been observing these past few days, and the people from the special inspection team do conduct very strict checks. Moreover, they issue an identity verification item to everyone who passes, which is used for testing over there. Even if one somehow gets through here, it would be very difficult to get through there."

"Do you have any way to get Xiao’ai through?" Su Shu asked.

"What do you mean?"

"Is there any way we can deceive our way through?"

"How about I hypnotize those people? That way, Xiao’ai could get through," suggested the Fox.

"Would that work?"

"Not sure, should I go try it now?"

"Wait a moment, let me think more about it."

The Fox hummed in agreement.

Both fell silent for a while, then the Fox suddenly said, "Master, there’s something that’s been bothering me for a while, and I’ve been meaning to ask you."

"Ask away," said Su Shu.

"Do you know the origins of Xiao’ai?"

Su Shu turned her head, "Why do you ask?"

"Nothing much, it’s just that both the Little Snake King and I think that Xiao’ai is quite special, but we can’t figure out what exactly her peculiar ability is, so I was curious."

Caught off guard by the Fox’s question, Su Shu was momentarily stunned.

Xiao’ai was her niece, who had appeared beside her since the day she was reborn.

While she reveled in the joy of having a relative, she never delved into Xiao’ai’s origins.

After all, Xiao’ai had come with her address and an old photo.

In the picture were her parents in their younger years.

Since her childhood, she knew there was an elder sister she had never met.

Even before her parents were together, she had heard from her mother that her father had had a daughter, and her mother had had a son.

However, in her previous life, they never appeared in the life of their family.
