Chapter 329 Concealment
Knock knock knock..."
"Huan'er... Huan'er..."
"Huan'er, your mother has come to see you! Open the door quickly!!"
"Aran, don't be in such a hurry! Maybe Huan'er is sleeping right now. We're already here, so there's no need to rush!"
Xiao Yuanran raised an eyebrow and stared at Zheyi. Her bright and lively eyes instantly sent a chill down Zheyi's spine. Zheyi shrugged and gave an awkward smile.
Although Xiao Yuanran was blind, it did not impair her keen senses in the slightest. Following the sound of the broken wing, Xiao Yuanran pressed for answers.
"Broken Wings, are you hiding something from me...!"
"No, no, I wouldn't dare, how could I?"
Zheyi waved his hand hastily, looking utterly helpless.
"Then why hasn't Huanhuan opened the door yet?"
"Don't you... worry that something might happen to her...?"
Xiao Yuanran continued to press for answers.
"This... how would I know? Besides, what could possibly happen while sleeping...? Aran, you're overthinking it!"
"Open it for me now..."
"Okay, okay, Aran, don't worry, I'll open it for you right away..."
After calming Xiao Yuanran's anxiety, Zheyi took a deep breath, peered through the crack in the door, blew a puff of green smoke into the crack, and used magic to transmit his voice to Xiong Xi.
"Bear attack, you brat, what are you doing...?"
"Uncle Zhe, don't blame me. What girl doesn't close her bedroom door when she sleeps?"
"Then you don't have to be so strict... Ugh... Really."
"what happened?"
Xiao Yuanran, hearing no response from Zheyi, continued to press him for answers.
"Aran, shall we wait a little longer? This door seems to be broken...?"
"It's broken? I'll do it...!"
"No need, no need, how could I trouble you? I'll drive, I'll do it...?"
"Aran, please stand here first. I'm afraid I might accidentally hurt you later...?"
"what are you up to?"
Zheyi grabbed Xiao Yuanran's hand and led her to the door. After settling Xiao Yuanran in, he took a few steps back and bumped his shoulder against Huanruge's tightly closed door.
"jump……"
After several attempts, the tightly closed door finally opened a crack. Zheyi rubbed his hands together, used his last bit of strength, and slammed the door open.
Xiong Xi, hiding under the covers, was startled and trembled. She closed her eyes nervously, covered her mouth, and dared not make a sound.
"Huan'er... Huan'er... Are you there?"
Xiao Yuanran groped around, and Zheyi quickly stepped forward to support her, crossed the threshold, and came to Huanruge's bedside.
"Yes, yes, Aran, don't worry..."
"Are you there? Why aren't you saying anything...?"
"Don't believe me? Touch it...! Come on, touch it, see if it's your Huan'er...!"
Zheyi took Xiao Yuanran's hand and placed it in the quilt where Xiong Xi was hiding.
Xiong Xi was afraid that Xiao Yuanran would find out, and she trembled with fear and nervousness.
Xiao Yuanran touched it, and it did feel like there was a person there, but it didn't feel like Huan Ruge at all.
Xiao Yuanran frowned instantly. She was unsure if the person in front of her was Huan Ruge, so she asked repeatedly, trying to confirm whether it was really her.
"Huan'er, are you feeling unwell? Why are you trembling so badly and not making a sound?"
"Well, Huan'er might really be feeling a little unwell! Why don't we go back first and let her rest a bit more..."
Seeing that the truth was about to be revealed, Zheyi quickly covered for them, pulling Xiao Yuanran along to leave.
"Aran, Huan'er, you've seen her too. Shouldn't we go now and let the child rest a bit more? She was quite injured during the last few days we were away, so it's normal for her to be a little tired. Let's not disturb her."
