Chapter 1272: Chapter 971: Sudden Upheaval (Part 3)

At least fifty percent of the resources consumed by Golden Dawn’s raid were spent on him, while the other fifty percent... were blown up along with the old school district by Luo Su.

It’s just that the character was too powerful, drawing unanimous targeting from other players.

No gaming experience whatsoever.

Despite this, upon seeing Huai Shi, still managed to force out a little smile... which looked increasingly frightening.

"Go rest first, more things will be discussed at the celebration feast tomorrow."

After asking a few questions about the situation, Isaac nodded, rarely showing a satisfied expression, comforting, "Your family’s fine, Mr. Krishna immediately hid your home in the Bhagavad Gita."

"That’s good," Huai Shi also sighed with relief.

Although he contacted Uncle Fang immediately after changing his phone to ensure everything was fine, the old man’s vague demeanor always left Huai Shi a bit uneasy.

If he had known Luo Su was going to play so big, he wouldn’t have moved the Stone Marrow Pavilion back to the Ivory Tower before leaving.

To save the old man from worrying along with him.

Even if Uncle Fang is fine, what if his collection of games and consoles suffered the Golden Dawn’s ravages?

Upon finding out the dormitory area was still under inspection and repair, Huai Shi straightforwardly brought the students back home.

"You guys can temporarily stay here for now, just nice for Aniya to taste Uncle Fang’s cooking."

He carried big bags and walked in front, pushing open the courtyard’s door, passing through the carefully tended garden and flower beds by Uncle Fang, dropped the bags at the entrance, looking at the familiar scene, finally feeling a sense of relaxation of returning home.

The Wood Cottage behind was even more familiar, poking his head towards the kitchen, "Uncle Fang, Uncle Fang, I’m back, is there anything to eat... I’ll get it myself."

"Eh? Teacher’s house is nicely decorated," Anna curiously looked around. "I thought he’d be living in a single dorm eating instant noodles...

She paused for a moment, her smile became curious and odd, "Could it be he’s keeping a woman?"

"Aniya, don’t be disrespectful."

Yuan Yuan knocked on her head, "The teacher is still single."

"Ah, this..." The teenage girl was dumbfounded, "Sounds even more miserable."

Huai Shi grumpily ruffled her hair, lazy to talk nonsense with her, hung his jacket on the coat rack and headed to the living room, just wanting to sprawl on the couch and bask in the sun for a good nap.

But right in front of the hall, he saw the old man making a face at him, with a complex and anxious expression, as if he saw the backyard on fire but couldn’t speak.

Never seen him so anxious...

"Are you alright, Uncle Fang, feeling unwell?" Huai Shi was stunned, then hastened his pace.

But barely took a few steps, heard the familiar game melody from the living room’s TV, like someone started up Huai Shi’s console, playing games while he’s away.

But Uncle Fang never touched that stuff, usually watches documentary channels and All-around Decoration King...

Or has some jerk messed with his saved game while he’s away?

Huai Shi suddenly felt a surge of anger, rolled up his sleeves, stormed into the living room.

Then, froze in place.

Turned to stone.

The afternoon sunlight poured in from outside, casting a golden glow over the long black hair.

On the couch, the little girl holding the controller was staring at the TV screen intently.

Seemed like only eleven or twelve years old.

The black dress was exquisite and cute.

Two slender and long legs extended from beneath the skirt, resting on the coffee table, accompanied by joyful humming, her toes flexibly tapping rhythmically.

Upon hearing Huai Shi’s voice, she hit pause and slowly turned her head.

Almost made Huai Shi scream in surprise.

That innocent and flawless face seemed to carry an eternal smile and mysterious magic power, enchanting, devoid of past dignity and grace, now showing the charm and playfulness belonging to a girl.

Her lively eyes blinked.

Observing Huai Shi’s dazed look, as if knowing what’s on his mind...

The smile was smug and delightful.

Huai Shi nearly forgot to breathe.

Not because captured by a smile unmatched by earthly treasures, but feeling an unprecedented chill and a crisis of death.

Wait, no!

Huai Shi was shocked, reaching out his hands trying to restrain.

But, already too late.

Because a voice filled with surprise had already sounded.

Radiating joy and innocence, the girl in the black dress smiled, opened her mouth and called out:

"Daddy, you’re back~"
