The chaos at the intersection, with cars all tangled and people in a tizzy, turned out to be caused by...
A bird!
Its feathers were jet black, with eyes that gleamed like glass marbles, darting everywhere, while its wings flapped wildly in front of each vehicle, peering earnestly through the windshields and staring at every person inside.
No wonder the drivers messed up and crashed their cars.
Driving peacefully in the city, only to be suddenly stared at by a spooky bird in front of your nose—who could handle that?
Gu Qiusha, preparing for anything, twitched her lips slightly.
Sigh.
Turns out it was a crow.
Thinking about it made her chuckle again, "Our little Zuzi really knows how to startle people with her words, so innocent and lively."
Summoning a crow, how adorable is that?
So what if her silly daughter is three and a half years old mentally?
She's such a treasure.
Wang Laowu silently wiped away sweat and tried to console her, "Miss, actually, crows are pretty nice…"
Especially since the young darling had always been uncannily accurate in her speech and actions before.
He almost thought Zuzi could really summon some terrifying monster.
Sigh.
You really have to believe in science and break superstitions.
Winning the lottery, escaping death, and word spirit—these should be coincidences, just luck.
In response to their reactions, Zuzi raised her eyebrows indifferently and said nothing.
The road ahead was completely jammed.
She lifted her dress and got out of the car.
She moved gracefully like a startled swan amongst the traffic, and in a blink of an eye, she was at the very center of the jam, where the "crow" was stuck.
As soon as it saw her, the crow's glass eyes shone brightly, and the feathers on its wings quivered, letting out a muffled whimper as it dashed to her feet, kissing her shoes.
As if showing homage.
Or perhaps bowing in apology.
Under the sunlight, amidst those black feathers, a few strikingly unusual pale golden feathers glinted, hiding amongst them.
Zuzi smiled slightly, "Thanks for your hard work."
She bent down a little, extending her fair wrist, with her slender fingers stretching out before the crow.
The crow tentatively perched upon her hand, behaving very obediently.
"Ancestor, it's been ten thousand years since I last saw you, Xiao Jin is so lonely boohoo!"
It couldn't help but cry.
Zuzi patted the tuft of feathers on its head, "It must have been tough flying from the East Sea. The spiritual energy is so thin, not enough oxygen, right?"
The crow nodded vigorously.
Back in the day, it alone pulled the Golden Crow Chariot for its ancestor, speeding through the winds across 180,000 miles in the blink of an eye.
Now, it had to pant and exhaust itself just to find its ancestor; how humiliating.
Still, it was way better than the Vermilion Bird, White Tiger, Black Tortoise, Flying Snake, and Gouchen that hadn't found their ancestor yet.
It could joyfully cling tightly to its ancestor's mighty leg... oh no, celestial finger!
"Ancestor, please don't abandon Xiao Jin this time; let Xiao Jin pull your chariot again, alright?" The crow looked at Zuzi with longing eyes, full of pleading.
Zuzi was just about to respond.
Suddenly.
She felt a scorching gaze from behind, seemingly piercing through the traffic and landing straight on her.
Accompanied by a refreshing and pleasant scent, it made her involuntarily take a deep breath, "Hmm, hold on. A handsome young guy is coming…"
She turned back with a smile, meeting the gaze of the man in the black SUV, controlling the steering wheel with one hand.
The man had changed out of his blood-stained clothes, now wearing a clean white shirt. Even through the car window, his gaze was deep and far-reaching, staring at her unwaveringly.
He truly was a gentlemanly demon.
