Over here.
At the Wan Family, in the e-sports room.
Wan Xiaoxiao was wearing headphones, operating with a serious expression.
Behind her stood Jiang Junyi and Wan Qingyun.
Originally, Jiang Junyi was preparing to hold a small meeting to discuss going to the desert in the north.
Seeing that Wan Xiaoxiao hadn't finished playing yet, the two began to supervise her game.
In the screen, the character Wan Xiaoxiao was controlling was moving stealthily.
Jiang Junyi: "She's about to die."
Wan Qingyun: "I think so too."
"Tsk, impossible." Wan Xiaoxiao scoffed.
A quick peek to the left.
"Bang!"
A crimson screen instantly reflected on Wan Xiaoxiao's face.
"Damn it—!"
Wan Xiaoxiao ripped off her headphones and writhed gloomily in her chair.
"Noob."
"Noob."
Jiang Junyi pushed Wan Qingyun towards the door: "Come on, let's have a quick meeting."
Wan Xiaoxiao stood up, dejected, muttering: "Hacks... definitely hacks..."
Arriving in the living room, Jiang Junyi said: "Your sister and I are going on a trip next. What do you think?"
Wan Xiaoxiao looked up upon hearing this: "Trip? Where to?"
Wan Qingyun: "North, Taklamakan Desert."
"Desert?" A hint of resistance appeared on Wan Xiaoxiao's face, "Doesn't sound like much fun."
"Then you'll stay at home?" Jiang Junyi asked, "You're on holiday now, no one will be looking after you."
"Emm..." Wan Xiaoxiao didn't really want to go, but also didn't want to be home alone.
"How about this, I can ask the Xingluo Daycare Center to let you work part-time there, with meals provided, and Susie is there too, how about it?" Wan Qingyun asked.
Hearing this, Wan Xiaoxiao's eyes lit up: "Really?"
"Mm, it's good for you to get some experience, and you can play with Susie when you're free." Wan Qingyun patted Xiaoxiao's head.
"That works!"
"Then, can I invite Susie to come over and play at home?"
Wan Xiaoxiao looked at Wan Qingyun with anticipation.
"You can." Wan Qingyun smiled.
"Yay! Then it's settled!" Wan Xiaoxiao cheered.
Having resolved this matter, Jiang Junyi and Wan Qingyun exchanged glances and nodded.
Jiang Junyi: "Alright, that's the gist of it. Be good at home, and don't cause trouble for people at the shop."
"Got it!"
"Go play." Jiang Junyi waved his hand.
"Okay!" Wan Xiaoxiao got up and quickly ran towards the e-sports room.
"And!"
Wan Xiaoxiao stopped, turning back to look at Jiang Junyi in confusion.
Jiang Junyi: "Your body positioning is a big problem, you still need to practice."
Wan Xiaoxiao's mouth twitched: "Stinky brother-in-law! When you two come back, I'll show you what a 'Wandering Dragon' is! Hmph!"
With that, she ran back to her room.
Jiang Junyi smiled, taking out his phone: "Uncle Wu, get ready, we're going to the Taklamakan Desert in the north."
[Yes!]
Wan Qingyun then tugged at Jiang Junyi's sleeve: "Junyi, this time, I want to bring Capricorn."
Jiang Junyi stroked his chin: That seems fine, a bit safer.
"Okay, but why did you think of bringing your assistant this time?"
"After all, Capricorn has been helping me with things, and she hasn't had a good rest." Wan Qingyun explained, "This time I want her to relax a bit too, and Uncle Wu's pressure will be less."
Jiang Junyi smiled slightly: "If Uncle Wu knew what you were thinking, he'd probably be wiping away tears by now."
Suddenly, a crying sound came from the phone—[Wuwuwu! Young Mistress, you are truly too considerate!]
Jiang Junyi glanced at the phone in his hand: "Sorry, I forgot to hang up!"
[I swear to protect...]
"Clang" He hung up the phone.
Jiang Junyi: "Excuse me, excuse me."
Wan Qingyun shook her head: "We should pack our things too."
"Mm."
"Ding-dong!"
The doorbell rang.
The two looked curiously at the door.
Is Uncle Wu that fast?
Jiang Junyi opened the door and saw the valiant Capricorn.
"Uh... Capricorn?"
Capricorn bowed slightly: "Son-in-law."
"Come in quickly."
Jiang Junyi stepped aside, and Capricorn walked into the living room.
"Miss." Capricorn addressed her.
Wan Qingyun's mouth twitched at the sight; she knew Capricorn was always by her side, but this was too fast!
"You..."
"I'm here to help Miss pack her things." Capricorn bowed.
"Oh, okay."
About half an hour later, Uncle Wu also arrived.
Two butlers in black suits stood at the door, ready.
Jiang Junyi looked down at Wan Qingyun: "Shall we go?"
"Let's go." Wan Qingyun looked up and smiled.
...
About eight hours later, night had already fallen.
Jiang Junyi and his group arrived at Yamen Su Town, a small town enveloped by the Taklamakan Desert.
As soon as the four arrived, an exotic atmosphere enveloped them.
Bonfires flickered, and music and dance intertwined.
Most of the people living here were ethnic minorities, and their unique culture was its charm.
"Miss, Son-in-law, let's put our luggage down first." Capricorn was looking for accommodation on her phone.
Previously, this job belonged to Uncle Wu.
Now...
Uncle Wu dragged two large suitcases, with many bags hanging on him, walking behind Jiang Junyi and Wan Qingyun.
Adhering to the principle of favoring males over females, he took on all of this.
Good news: his mind seemed a bit lighter.
Bad news: his body seemed quite a bit more tired.
After some searching, the four arrived at a hotel.
After checking in, Jiang Junyi pushed Wan Qingyun to take their things into the room first and tidy up.
As for Capricorn and Uncle Wu...
At this moment, the two stood at the door, both falling into silence.
"You, did you only book two rooms in total?" Capricorn glanced sideways at Uncle Wu.
Uncle Wu shook his head: "It only has two..."
"This hotel is the best in Yamen Su. To ensure the experience of the Young Master and Young Mistress, we could only choose this one."
Are you kidding? How could he make such a basic mistake?
Everything was for the Young Master.
Capricorn was silent for a moment: "Well said, let's go in first."
With that, both placed their hands on the doorknob simultaneously.
Uncle Wu looked at the delicate hand on the back of his own hand, then at Capricorn.
Capricorn said indifferently: "Occupational habit."
Uncle Wu nodded: "Understood."
On the other side.
Jiang Junyi was holding Wan Qingyun's small hand, speaking:
"The place we're going to isn't a tourist attraction."
"According to my parents, it's a dangerous place..."
Wan Qingyun lowered her head slightly: I know... otherwise, why would I call Capricorn?
She also knew that Jiang Junyi's words were actually out of concern for her.
But she wasn't as she seemed!
She was a Lesser Grandmaster after all, plus the Lord's special abilities.
In reality, she wouldn't be a burden.
Wan Qingyun didn't want to let Jiang Junyi face danger alone.
After thinking for a moment, she looked up, cupping Jiang Junyi's face:
"Junyi, do you trust me?"
Jiang Junyi was slightly startled: "I trust you."
"If you trust me, then take me with you. I won't be a burden."
Wan Qingyun's eyes were incredibly firm.
