Nuclear pollution has altered human genes, granting abilities that can be plundered by others. Shen Xingmian managed to acquire multiple abilities but, in the end, overwhelmed by despair for the fu...
If only this were modern times, we could advertise directly on the internet and receive the treatment of a world-class star wherever we go.
Everything you do is right; there's no need to say a single pointless word.
She was really tired of explaining.
Footsteps suddenly sounded in the room. Shen Xingmian turned around and saw that the door was indeed open.
Seeing the young girl craning her neck to look at him from outside, Jiang Yu couldn't help but blush when he thought of what had just happened.
Last time, Uncle Shen's family didn't show their true faces, so he still doesn't know what Mianmian looks like.
I never expected the little girl to be so beautiful.
She really inherited the best features from her parents; judging from her appearance alone, she has already surpassed them.
He hadn't even had a chance to thank the child for saving Rui Rui, and instead, he was a little skeptical of her abilities.
No, anyone who sees this level of "level" for the first time would probably wonder if they're dreaming, right?
He refused to believe that anyone else could do better than him when they first encountered this situation.
That's impossible.
He didn't believe it.
Jiang Yu forced a kind smile, adopting the demeanor of an elder, trying to erase the unpleasant impression he had left on the child earlier.
But his eyes were red and swollen from crying, so when he smiled... it looked rather strange.
Shen Xingmian really wanted to say, "Uncle, you'd better stop smiling, it doesn't look good," but she still considerately kept her mouth shut and didn't pour cold water on her uncle who had just revived.
Yes, it's a case of resurgence. The way he looked just now was exactly what it meant to be utterly heartbroken.
If it weren't for other things and other people on his mind, Shen Xingmian thought he would have almost gone with them.
Sure enough, the idea of lovers committing suicide together is not just an old legend.
When love runs deep and your partner leaves, it's incredibly difficult for the person left behind to go on living.
"Mianmian, I'm so sorry. You came all this way back, and I didn't even get to treat you properly. I feel terrible that you had to do so much for me..."
Seeing his hesitant expression, Shen Xingmian knew the torment he was going through, so she quickly smiled and spoke to ease his embarrassment.
"Sister Rui Rui is all better now, right? There's nothing to be careful about. She can move around normally and doesn't need to lie down all the time."
That's true, but it seems unlikely that someone who has just attempted suicide could be brought back to normal immediately.
My body is fine now, but the mental issues remain.
"Yes, she's physically fine now, but... she's still a bit emotionally distraught. I'll try to comfort her and make sure she doesn't get stuck in a rut anymore."
Shen Xingmian wanted to understand the situation, so she asked in a low voice, "Rui Rui's father...?"
She didn't finish her question, but Jiang Yu already understood what she meant, and shook his head with a soft sigh:
"Her father was put under tremendous pressure by his elders for supporting her petition to the emperor. He lost his official position and was persecuted by the treacherous minister's men. The psychological pressure was too great, and he fell ill. The illness came on suddenly... and he passed away a few days later."
After listening, Shen Xingmian sighed deeply. The unpredictability of life lies in the fact that many people seem to have no problems and appear to be able to live for many more years.
But at any moment, an accident happened.
Even if you want to keep them, you can't.
well.
She didn't think, "If only she were here." Many people die every day in the world, and she can't possibly be there wherever there's a need.
Even a true deity couldn't withstand such exhaustion.
Besides, she only has superpowers, she can't split herself into two, and she still has to rely on snowballs to run around. How could she have such great abilities?
"This is part of the reason why Rui Rui can't think straight; she feels that it was her own willful actions that harmed her father."
"ah……"
Shen Xingmian really wanted to say that this wasn't her problem, but she felt it would be useless to say it anyway, since Uncle Jiang Yu must have said similar things many times before.
She actually felt that the best way was to live under a different identity. She couldn't keep living in torment because of the people who had already passed away.
“I wanted to help her change her identity, just like before… but she didn’t want to. She felt that if she didn’t even want her name anymore, she would be even more sorry to her father.”
He really is a rather stubborn person.
But if she didn't have this kind of personality, she wouldn't have been able to escape from there in the first place.
You can't like someone because of their strengths, and then dislike them because of the other side of that strength.
When Uncle Jiang Yu said that things were like that back then, he probably meant that he helped them change their travel permits, but the whole family really needed those permits and didn't care about changing their names at all.
The difference between the two is quite significant.
"It still depends on Sister Rui Rui being able to think things through herself. Or, should I try to persuade her? Or, should I take her out for a walk and see the sights?"
The world that young women of this era had seen was far too small.
Maybe if we go out and see more of the world, we can step out of our own little world?
"Uncle, you should know my aunt's temperament before she was exiled, but you probably wouldn't believe how she is now. It's definitely a good thing for a young lady to travel and see more of the world."
Jiang Yu also longed for it.
“We have no official status, and Rui Rui refuses to meet outsiders with me at all. She stays in her room all day, wishing she could avoid seeing anyone. Sigh.”
Damn, if this keeps going on, it's no wonder he's suicidal. He's probably already depressed.
"Since your uncle has no other choice, why don't you leave her to me for now? I need to go to the capital to find my second uncle and get my brother cured."
Along the way, she'll probably encounter many people and many things, which might help Sister Ruirui get through this.
Jiang Yu was truly at his wit's end. After Rui Rui regained consciousness, she still had no attachment to the world.
The two pats on his head made him mistakenly believe that he could keep her, but little did he know that she only indulged herself a little because she thought he was already dead.
After realizing the situation, he shut himself off again.
He could only watch helplessly, unable to offer any assistance.
If Mianmian can really help her get through this, then what does it matter if we have to be separated for a while?
He can accept it perfectly well.
You can even follow them around.
Thinking of this, Jiang Yu's eyes lit up, and he recommended himself, "Mianmian, do you think we could bring your uncle along? I'm pretty good at fighting, and I can protect you all the way, right?"
The more he talked about it, the more feasible it seemed. He said happily, "It's just that I haven't seen my second brother in a long time. I should go and pay him a visit. Wait a moment, I'll have someone make the preparations right away. Let's try to set off as soon as possible!"
After saying that, he turned and left quickly without looking back.
Shen Xingmian, left standing there: "..."
No, Uncle, you really don't care about me?
They didn't even provide a room. It's better to be in the wild than at home, haha.
