As soon as the Ji Da sounded, the daughter-in-law made a brilliant appearance!

Chapter 137: Taoist sister, you must be responsible for me!

Before going to sleep, Zhi Nian heard the system broadcast in his mind.

Current task object: Shui Yuci

Current love value: 90%

Current host's health status: 85%

The system prompt sound is very faint, and it is difficult to detect its existence if you don't listen carefully.

However, Zhi Nian keenly caught this sound - the love value actually increased again!

Despite this, she couldn't help but open her eyes slightly and looked towards where Yue Qiaoer was.

At this moment, Yue Qiaoer had already fallen asleep peacefully, with her breathing steady and regular.

Zhi Nian herself slept on a makeshift bed on the floor of the room. When Yue Qiaoer saw her behavior, she was quite dissatisfied.

Time goes back to an hour ago...

-

"Niannian, how come you seem like a different person after you came back from going out?" Yue Qiaoer asked suspiciously.

"We are good sisters who grew up together. We used to sleep on the same bed when we were away from home. Why have you become so pretentious now?" Yue Qiaoer widened her eyes, pouted her lips, and her tone was full of complaints.

Zhi Nian lowered his eyes, pursed his lips, and explained in a low voice: "This is different... The situation is different now... I can't explain it to you clearly. If my sister knew about it, she would definitely be angry..."

Upon hearing this, Yue Qiaoer rolled her eyes in annoyance and muttered some sarcastic words.

"Yo yo yo! You're so different now! You forgot your friends for a beautiful woman! You stayed pure for your good sister! Our relationship of more than ten years has faded just like that! I'm not important anymore..."

Yue Qiaoer kept chirping like a little sparrow. Zhi Nian felt a little annoyed, but couldn't help wanting to laugh, so he walked up to her and covered her mouth.

"Okay, okay, I know I was wrong! It's all my fault! Go to sleep!"

After hearing this, Yue Qiaoer stopped making noise and obediently closed her eyes and prepared to go to sleep.

After a while, a light snoring sound was heard.

-

And in the next room.

Shui Yuci was sitting quietly beside the bed, listening to the starving ghost in front of her reporting to her everything that happened next door.

When she learned that Zhi Nian and Yue Qiaoer did not live together, the stone in her heart finally fell.

Moreover, she heard every word of the conversation between the two of them, and the icy cold that had originally enveloped her body slowly dissipated.

The room suddenly became as warm and pleasant as spring, as if all the good things had arrived at this moment.

Shui Yuci's tense expression gradually relaxed, revealing a barely perceptible hint of joy.

"Master, is there anything else I can do for you?"

The starving ghost asked cautiously.

Shui Yuci glanced at it, then put it into the gourd and replied calmly: "It's nothing, I will give you a reward tomorrow."

Then, Shui Yuci flicked her sleeves violently, and a sharp wind blade suddenly whizzed out, instantly extinguishing the flickering candlelight.

The room suddenly fell into a dead silence and darkness, as if the whole world had frozen at this moment.

Shui Yuci subconsciously touched her arms, feeling like something was missing.

Her heart tightened and she turned her head to look at the bright moon hanging high outside the window.

The moonlight fell on her like water, but at this moment she only felt empty inside. An inexplicable sense of loss surged in her heart, causing her to suffer from insomnia, which was rare.

In this moment of silence and stillness of the night, once people have some free time, their thoughts tend to surge in like the tide, drifting around uncontrollably.

Shui Yuci was naturally not immune. Her mind involuntarily recalled the scene when she met Zhi Nian.

At that time, Zhi Nian was still a young boy in Yuelai Building. He was innocent and full of curiosity and yearning for the outside world.

I remember that Zhi Nian once said that she longed to see a wider world, so she resolutely chose to follow her to explore the unknown world outside.

However, Shui Yuci didn't completely believe what Zhi Nian said.

Because the night before, she had calculated Zhi Nian's marriage, and the result showed that his marriage was blocked. Even more coincidental was that at that time Shui Yuci calculated that her own Red Luan star was also quietly moving.

As for what kind of mood she had when she took Zhi Nian away, and even allowed her to follow her all the way, Shui Yuci could no longer remember.

But she knew in her heart that Zhi Nian was her destined love disaster.

Faced with this sudden emotional entanglement, Shui Yuci could have had many different choices.

For example, before the two of them developed deep feelings, that is, at the beginning of the story, they decisively avoided this relationship; or...

However, surprisingly, she did not choose to escape, but instead kept this so-called "love disaster" by her side.

As time went by, the bond between them grew deeper and more unbreakable.

In addition, she had the opportunity to ignore it and let Lin Yu kill Zhi Nian. In this way, she could successfully survive this emotional disaster.

But the reluctance and attachment deep in her heart prevented her from making such a cruel decision.

But she was reluctant and unwilling, she fell into it willingly.

Now, Zhi Nian's figure has been deeply imprinted in her mind and heart.

Every frown and smile of hers, every eye contact, even every few words she spoke, were like an invisible shackle that tightly locked her heartstrings and made her unable to extricate herself.

She couldn't get over this emotional disaster.

She didn't want to cross the river anymore.

-

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, more than half a month has passed.

Zhi Nian and Yue Qiaoer finally set out on their journey home, returning to the place where their dream began - Yuelai Tower.

Yue Qiaoer has suffered a lot in the past half month. Not only has she been on a diet, but she has also insisted on exercising. Compared to when she went to see Zhi Nian, she has lost nearly ten kilograms!

When Aunt Feng saw the chubby little girl, she felt so distressed that she quickly pulled her to her side, looking left and right, afraid to miss anything unusual.

"Aunt Feng, don't worry! I'm really fine. This time it's all thanks to Zhi Nian and Taoist Shui Yu!"

Yue Qiaoer was full of life at this time, holding Aunt Feng's hand tightly, with gratitude flashing in her eyes.

Although Aunt Feng always said she disliked Yue Qiaoer, she loved her very much deep down in her heart.

Seeing Yue Qiaoer returning safely and her physical condition gradually improving, my heart, which had been hanging in the air, finally settled down.

Aunt Feng saw Zhi Nian coming back alone from afar, but she didn't see the person who left with her.

I couldn't help but feel worried. Could it be that this girl was taken advantage of by someone and then abandoned?

But why is there no movement in the belly? Could it be that she is not pregnant?
