The Lovely Heiress Is Actually A God Beast

Chapter 1703: She’ll Be Led Astray by Her Second Brother

Lou Lan suddenly looked at Hua Jinyan, and Hua Jinyan’s expression was tense, not like he was faking it.

Lou Lan did not rashly expose the little girl, after all, a child’s self-esteem always gets hurt in strange ways, and it wouldn’t be good if their self-esteem was damaged.

Lou Lan reached out to touch Little Taotie’s forehead; it felt hot to the touch.

This kind of heat felt a bit different from the usual fever.

The difference was very subtle, only a doctor could distinguish it through experience.

She took out her stethoscope, wanting to listen to Little Taotie’s heartbeat, but Little Taotie suddenly started coughing violently.

After the severe cough, the heartbeat accelerated.

The little girl was still a bit out of breath, looking just like someone sick and struggling to breathe.

Her acting skills were quite impressive.

Lou Lan couldn’t help but laugh.

She almost forgot that apart from being a member of the Special Department, the little girl had another identity, which was being an actress.

She had always heard people say that the little girl’s acting skills were good. The fact that she became popular was not only because she had the knack for it, but also due to her own efforts, thoroughly studying acting skills.

Now it seems, she plays the role of a sick person quite well, having grasped the essence of it.

If she wasn’t a doctor herself, she wouldn’t have been able to tell, and even if she were a doctor, because of her young age, she would have been fooled easily.

She did not expose Little Taotie but asked worriedly, "Do you feel like vomiting?"

Little Taotie shook her head.

"That’s good. I’ll give you some medicine. Take one pill before meals. I’m off to work now. You rest well and don’t run around."

"But I still need to find Head Grandpa." Little Taotie rubbed her fingers together, her big eyes blinking.

Already knowing the little girl was pretending to be sick, Lou Lan narrowed her eyes, "It’s fine, there’s no information for now. Searching would just be aimlessly searching. I’ll inform you when there’s news."

After Lou Lan left, Hua Jinyan suddenly spoke, "She’s acting a bit strange."

Little Taotie had already hidden the medicine away and was sipping on her sweet and fragrant peach juice, looking at him confusedly, "What’s strange? I’ve already fooled her. My acting skills are top-notch!"

Hua Jinyan: "Lying isn’t good."

"It’s okay, Second Brother said that lies can be divided into kind and malicious ones. If it’s a kind one, it’s okay."

Hua Jinyan: "..."

He felt that sooner or later Little Taotie would be led astray by her Second Brother.

But he didn’t want to correct anything, as people who are too simple are always vulnerable.

Lou Lan was eavesdropping outside the door, but the distance was a bit far, so she could only hear faint, indistinct bits.

"Hurry up and pack. We’re going to the Ancient Pagoda!" Little Taotie threw away the hot water bottle she had been holding onto, then quickly changed her clothes.

Upon hearing this, Lou Lan furrowed her eyebrows.

The little girl was pretending to be sick to get rid of herself so she could go to the Ancient Pagoda with Hua Jinyan?

That Ancient Pagoda is too mysterious, she can’t let her go!

Lou Lan was about to take a step forward but quickly stopped herself.

The little girl was pretending to be sick to prevent herself from stopping her, and if she went out now to stop her, she wouldn’t give up easily. It’s better to divert than to block. It’d be better to follow them and appear when they’re in danger, and then give them a good lesson. It would have a much deeper educational impact.

Hua Jinyan, feeling something, looked towards the door but didn’t see anyone.

Lou Lan, who hid just in time, breathed a sigh of relief.

She was almost discovered; Hua Jinyan is quite perceptive.

...

Little Taotie packed her small bag, patted it, and hummed a tune, "This time I must uncover the secret of the Ancient Castle!"

What was actually being patted was the Horse-Faced Bell inside the small bag. Little Taotie was afraid of Horse-Faced Bell causing trouble again, so she didn’t hang it at her waist but put it inside the small bag with a complex seal.

From the outside, the small bag had beautiful patterns, densely covering it, resembling ancient vines. But in fact, it was an ancient script specifically used to seal items that needed sealing.
