Qing Ruyi was stunned for a while. However, she didn’t care what he said. She accepted it with a good temper. She saw that he didn’t want her to approach him, so she stood in place and didn’t dare to make a move. She looked nothing like the aggressive level 5 fiend that had attacked Ruan Qiuqiu earlier.Fôllôw new stories at novelhall.com
Qing Ruyi cautiously asked, “Big Brother Bugui, are you mad?”
“Sorry, it’s all my fault. I wasn’t good.” Qing Ruyi explained in a flustered manner. “I lost my mind back then. I couldn’t find you once I woke up and regained my senses. They all said you were gone... Our lantern of fate also went out, so I...” thought you left me.

“Didn’t you say we were picked up? Grandpa, didn’t you say that people have to be honest? You also said that you can’t forget about a grandma named Ruyi.”
Mo Bugui: “...”
