You are one of the unlucky ones chosen to enter a survival game called the Gradient Game.

On the sea polluted by nuclear wastewater for a hundred years, a 'Ten-Day Carnival' feast is ...

176. Chapter 176 Giant Island 21

Ishtar gently patted the quilt covering Yili and asked knowingly, "What's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"

Yi Li's voice was muffled.

"No discomfort."

Ishtar tried to pull out her quilt, but found that she had wrapped herself tightly like a dumpling.

What to do, she seems even cuter.

Ishtar was amused by Yili's reaction: "Why are you so cute? Don't be so suffocated. You'll get yourself hurt if you keep doing this."

Yili adjusted himself and returned to his previous state of mind where he could handle everything with ease.

It doesn’t matter, isn’t it just a loss of face?

She doesn't want this face anymore.

It’s just a live broadcast. When did Yili become so pretentious?

She showed her rosy little face and blinked her big watery eyes at Ishtar: "You won't laugh at me secretly, will you?"

"Of course not, little princess, you're so adorable."

When Yili heard what Ishta said, the corners of his mouth twitched.

The word cute made her think of the wizard who had unleashed the dogs on her.

But Yili had to pretend to be shy, covered herself again, and then couldn't help but retching

Sorry, I really couldn't help it.

For some reason, Yili felt that being cute would make her feel physically uncomfortable, especially now.

This reminded her of some greasy and disgusting men.

I also like to praise people like this.

Although Ishtar is very handsome, it does not prevent Yili from being attracted by him.

To Yili, the word beauty is like a stone seen on the roadside.

Apart from the surprise at first sight and the inner compliment that she was pretty, I didn't have the same emotion as that first glance.

Whether she was at her peak or at her lowest point, she had no shortage of suitors around her. They were of all kinds, some of whom were good-looking and had outstanding financial resources.

But in her eyes, it can still be summed up in three words - that man.

Ishtar would never have imagined that the innocent and cute little princess in his eyes actually had a heart as hard as steel and was not even interested in men.

At present, no man can make her stop for a moment. Even if she is still saying sweet words to him the previous second, she will turn her back on him and stab him in the next second.

Yili has known since childhood that everything except money will betray you.

She just wants money, lots of money.

Ishtar noticed Yili's retching and asked, "What's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell again?"

Yili said in a muffled voice: "Nothing, I'm fine."

"You just retched. Are you feeling sick to your stomach? Are you afraid that I'll worry or is it because... you don't like me?"

Yi Li's heart skipped a beat.

Hey, little brother, how can you guess so well?

How do you know I'm disgusted by you?

Yi Li showed a pair of tearful eyes: "So this is how you think of me?"

The delicate little princess naturally has a fragile little heart.

Whenever she encountered something that made her sad, tears would flow naturally.

"That's not what I meant."

The moment Ishtar saw Yili's tears, he was instantly thrown into confusion.

But no matter how much Ishtar, who had never interacted with girls, learned from his teacher how to cheer them up, he was still at a loss when he saw her crying.

"Really? What do you mean?"

Yili looked at Ishtar and said, "If you want to think that way, think that way."

Yi Li's face turned pale, and her hands subconsciously clutched the cloth around her abdomen.

She was really not feeling well.

Ishtar realized this and said, "I'll call the wizard over right away."

Yili stopped him: "No, thank you, I want to be alone for a while."

Ishtar didn't expect that the person he had just calmed down would get angry again because of his words.

He finally understood what the former housekeeper had said when they were arguing with his wife: "You can never guess what a woman is thinking. Women are really terrible."

Just as he was about to make amends, he saw Yili covering herself with the quilt again and saying in a voice that she thought was vicious and tearful, "Get out. I don't want you to bother me. I want to be alone for a while, Mr. Ishtar. If you don't agree, I'll suffocate myself."

Ishtar saw that Yili was really angry, and was about to make up for his gaffe, but when he saw the little hill that exuded an aura of resistance, his intuition told him that he should let her calm down before he found a solution.

He had to go and learn how to coax a sensitive and crying little girl.

"I'll get you some food first. Calm down. I'm sorry. I really didn't mean it that way. I just..."

Before Ishtar could finish explaining, a pillow hit her in the arms.

Then I heard Yili's even sadder and angrier voice: "Get out! Mr. Ishtar! Please get out!"

It was clearly his room, but he was rudely kicked out of his territory by this little princess from outside.

Ishtar stood at the door of her room, lost in thought.

Why is the little princess so angry?

He thought of the former housekeeper who had retired and thought that he needed to go and learn from him.

Not long after Ishtar left, Yili crawled out from under the quilt, his face flushed from the heat. He looked up and saw the wizard Tahrir sitting on the chair next to him with his legs crossed, holding a cup of hot tea in his hand, and exuding an air of enjoyment.

Yili cursed subconsciously: "Fuck, you..."

"That's not what Your Highness should say."

Talil looked at Yili with a smile.

Yi Li: "..."

It was just her habit of blurting out words subconsciously when she was frightened.

Having lived from the bottom of society until now, she has seen too much abuse and cursing in the streets, and she had no choice but to accidentally learn some uncivilized swear words.

Besides, when she quarrels with others, these swear words are the best weapon to make the other person cry.

She was once a notorious sharp-tongued woman, with an excellent record of making three middle-aged women faint with just her mouth.

"Oh, look at this ghostly figure who suddenly appeared. He almost scared me, a beautiful, kind, and well-mannered person, into going to heaven to have a wonderful game with God. I wonder why Mr. Wizard took time out of his busy schedule to come and see me?"

Yili gave him a civilized conversation. Although it sounded a bit sarcastic, it was much more civilized than the swear words she wanted to say in her heart.

"Little princess, has anyone ever told you that you are really cute sometimes? You are just like a charming little rose with thorns. People can't help but want to cut off your thorns and keep you as a treasure."

Talil's smiling words made Yili smile slightly: "I think you are the charming little rose with thorns. Your whole family is roses. I am a human, not a flower."

This thing has to force itself on me!

She knew very well what the Tariel wizard was trying to do.

I'm so tired. It's time for the final exam. My family, please pray for me so that I don't fail the final exam. This is a request from a college student. I'm going to study until I die.
