Ten Thousand Soul Banner: Deceased, do you have any unfulfilled wishes? Chapter 1092 - 1088: Visiting the Home
"Uncle Jiang, Aunt Qi, hello, long ti no see."
Ruan Hongzhuang smiled and squeezed past Shen Siyuan and Taozi, quickly walking forward to greet Taozi’s parents warmly.
Her brows curved, and her tone was affectionate without a hint of formality.
"Hongzhuang is here."
Qi Huilan imdiately ca up and took Ruan Hongzhuang’s hand, her tone carrying a hint of reproach.
"You, it’s been a long ti since you visited us, the last ti was half a year ago, right?"
Ruan Hongzhuang has always been very close with the Jiang Family.
When she started her business in Bin Hai, she often ca to the Jiang Family for als, and Jiang Hongtu and his wife have always been very kind to her.
On one hand, they genuinely admire her talent; she’s beautiful, capable, and cos from a good family. Such a girl would be liked by anyone.
On the other hand, they naturally hope Ruan Hongzhuang takes care of their "clumsy" daughter.
They know well that Taozi is inherently a gentle soul who doesn’t fight or compete, and would inevitably suffer setbacks in society.
But Taozi is blessed with good fortune despite being "foolish." She beca close friends with Ruan Hongzhuang during university, and over the years, from campus to workplace, Ruan Hongzhuang has been looking out for her, making her life smooth and free from grievances; it’s practically a straightforward "winning" life.
Because of this, the Jiang couple are deeply grateful to Ruan Hongzhuang.
At the beginning of Ruan Hongzhuang’s entrepreneurial journey in Bin Hai, the Jiang Family even used their connections to provide her with many conveniences.
Seeing Qi Huilan still being so enthusiastic, the weight in Ruan Hongzhuang’s heart finally eased.
She was genuinely worried earlier that visiting with her current identity might cause discomfort for the two elders.
"It’s my fault; I’ve been too busy lately and neglected Uncle and Aunt."
Ruan Hongzhuang smiled and apologized, "In the future, I’ll definitely co by often for als, so please don’t find annoying."
"That’s more like it."
Qi Huilan smiled warmly, patting the back of her hand.
"You and Taozi are good sisters, this is Taozi’s ho, naturally, it’s your ho too. Coming to your own ho, why be so formal?"
These words, before eting Shen Siyuan, might have been just warm hospitality.
But now, considering the changed tis, Ruan Hongzhuang and Taozi being companions of Shen Siyuan adds deeper aning, hinting at the Jiang Family’s approval of this relationship.
"Don’t stand at the door talking, co in and sit."
Jiang Hongtu spoke up to invite everyone inside, his gaze falling on the gifts Shen Siyuan was holding, quickly reaching out to take them, pretending to complain, "Coming is enough, why bring sothing? You’re too formal."
"Can’t co empty-handed, that would be impolite." Shen Siyuan said with a smile, his tone calm and natural.
"Family shouldn’t be concerned with politeness!"
Jiang Hongtu placed the items at the corner of the entrance, pulling Shen Siyuan inside without argunt, "Next ti, don’t buy anything, just co."
"Hey? What about ~ What about ?"
Taozi, left at the door by everyone, stood there with a face full of grievance, pointing at herself, her voice coloring with a hint of teasing.
Upon hearing this, everyone turned around, looking at her pitiable expression, they couldn’t help but laugh.
"What’s making everyone so happy, tell too?"
At this mont, a white-haired yet energetic elderly lady erged from inside, none other than Taozi’s grandma.
"Grandma~"
Taozi seed to find her anchor, imdiately leaving everyone’s gaze, quickly rushing inside to hook her arm through grandma’s.
Maybe moving too eagerly, her actions were a bit large, causing grandma to stumble slightly, almost falling, prompting a laugh about her frustration, "Slow down, slow down, what’s the rush, girl?"
"I missed you."
Taozi shyly lowered her head, her cheeks slightly red.
"Nonsense."
Grandma tapped her forehead, "If you missed , why haven’t you co earlier to see ?"
"It’s not been long, I visited you last week." Taozi retorted playfully, her tone filled with teasing.
"It was the week before last." Grandma corrected her with a smile, her mory sharp as ever.
She gazed at Shen Siyuan and Ruan Hongzhuang, a benevolent smile on her face.
"Xiao Shen, Miss Ruan are here."
"Hello, Grandma." The two quickly stepped forward to greet her, their attitude respectful.
"Busy with work?"
Grandma looked at Ruan Hongzhuang, her tone concerned, "I haven’t seen you co by for a al recently."
"It’s alright, not too busy."
Ruan Hongzhuang smiled, supporting grandma’s arm, "Grandma, let’s sit and talk, standing is tiring."
After a round of pleasantries, everyone took their seats.
The atmosphere in the living room was warm and harmonious, and everyone tacitly avoided ntioning Ruan Hongzhuang’s marriage, as if the matter never occurred, the unspoken acceptance adding to the relaxed atmosphere.
After so casual chatting, Jiang Hongtu eventually couldn’t suppress his curiosity, looking at Shen Siyuan, his tone probing, "Was the phenonon in the sky over Bin Hai yesterday related to you?"
Shen Siyuan didn’t hide a thing, nodding openly, "It was ."
"It had quite an impact."
Jiang Hongtu sighed, his tone carrying concern.
Even soone like him, who usually doesn’t pay much attention to the internet, could feel the heat of this matter; the disturbance yesterday was indeed significant, far beyond an ordinary event.
"The incident was sudden yesterday, I noticed the anomaly too late to control the scene."
Saying this, Shen Siyuan took out his phone, having not yet had the chance to check it since last night, curious about the online response, "What’s everyone saying online now?"
Opening his phone, the information about yesterday’s aerial phenonon was overwhelming.
Several related topics ranked high on trending lists, with short video platforms filled with clips taken by passersby and wild creative content combining reality with fiction, making it dizzying to navigate.
"Didn’t the Special Affairs Bureau control it?" Shen Siyuan seed surprised.
As per usual practices, such major anomalous events should have warranted intervention by the Special Affairs Bureau, steering public sentint.
He casually glanced through so popular videos and news, quickly sensing sothing amiss.
Instead of not dealing with it, the Special Affairs Bureau had muddied the waters with false news and AI-generated videos flooding the internet.
The real clips captured by independent dia got buried amidst the massive amount of fake information, making the real event’s impact lessened.
"If you don’t plan to reveal your identity to the world, be mindful of the impact," Jiang Hongtu earnestly advised.
Being experienced, he understands the repercussions of big exposure.
"I understand, thank you, Uncle, for the reminder."
Shen Siyuan nodded seriously, knowing Jiang Hongtu genuinely cared for him.
He was aware that if only a few people knew his identity, the impact would be manageable.
But if his identity were fully exposed, although he wouldn’t be afraid, it would inevitably bring endless troubles to his family and friends.
After all, not everyone can stay rational knowing Divine beings truly exist; there’s always a risk so might act extrely.
"Oh, Xiao Shen, what about Dou Dou, why didn’t she co with you? I visited today hoping to see Dou Dou," Grandma Taozi jumped in.
"Unfortunately, she’s busy these days; once she’s available, I’ll tell her to visit you." Shen Siyuan replied.
"Alright, that would be great." Grandma Taozi grinned widely.
"Grandma, do you only miss Dou Dou, not ?" Taozi teased beside her.
"You girl, even getting jealous of Dou Dou?"
Grandma playfully patted her, drawing laughter from everyone.
