Due to her parents' unexpected passing, Gu Xinyan resolutely quit her job in the big city to take care of her blind grandmother and her little brother. She returned to her hometown and inherite...
Chapter 71 The Car Crash Scene
"Xinyan, your cooking skills are amazing! You could open a restaurant! Teach me sometime!" Gu Xinya said with a smile as she poured Gu Xinyan a glass of juice.
Lu Yunting looked around, and just as he was about to say something, he heard a familiar voice.
[Waaaaah, this is so delicious! Host's cooking skills are amazing! I wanted to eat this last time, but I didn't have a physical form. Today, my wish has finally come true! This crispy little fish is so good!]
Upon hearing this, everyone present turned to look in the direction from which the sound came.
Then you see the little white cat next to Gu An'an, who is holding a golden-brown fried fish with its two little paws and happily munching on it, all the while flattering Gu Xin'an.
Is this Xiaobai? It? Has it gained physical form?
They saw the little white cat when they arrived, but Gu An'an said it was his cat, so they didn't associate it with the system Xiaobai.
I thought this little guy had gotten a cat from somewhere, but I was amazed that the cat looked exactly like Xiaobai.
Looking back now, it's not the same at all; it's clearly a cat.
As the group looked towards Gu An'an, they saw the little girl staring blankly at Xiaobai as if she had suffered some kind of blow. After looking at Xiaobai, she turned her gaze to Gu Xinyan.
Gu Xinyan: "........."
What to do? Suddenly, she felt very guilty and awkwardly looked away, avoiding eye contact with the little one.
Seeing this, Gu An'an understood immediately. She pouted and tears streamed down her face as she complained to her grandmother.
"Waaaah... Grandma, my sister is mean! She lied to An'an! Xiaobai is clearly 011, but she lied and said she wasn't!"
Waaaaah... Sister is a big bad guy, and so is Xiaobai! I've been so good to you! How could you lie to me? I even gave you my beef jerky!
Waaaaah, Little White is mean! Give me back my beef jerky! Give it back! Waaaaah........."
"Snap!"
Little Bai, who was eating fried fish, was startled by the crying and dropped the fish onto the table.
It glanced at Gu An'an, whose eyes were brimming with tears, and then looked helplessly at its host.
Why are you crying now?! Seriously, you were the one who offered me that beef jerky, and I've already eaten it, so why should I give it back?
Ahhh, host, please save me! Your brother's tears are going to drown Little White.
Gu Xinyan, who was being watched by everyone, opened her mouth, wanting to explain something, but didn't know what to say.
"Look at you, all you do is bully An'an. Now look what you've done, you've made An'an cry!"
Grandma Gu instantly understood what was going on from Gu An'an's words. She glanced helplessly at her eldest granddaughter, patted her arm a few times, and then looked at An'an again, comforting her:
"An'an, your sister is mean. I've already hit her for you. Grandma has helped you get revenge. Wipe your tears and let's eat some meat."
"Yes, yes, An'an, let's not cry anymore, okay? Tomorrow, your brother Chendong will bring you some beef jerky. He has a big bag of it!"
Li Chendong also hurriedly comforted the little guy, and even took a few tissues from the table to wipe away the little guy's tears.
“I have a big bag of candy too. I’ll give it all to An’an tomorrow. Don’t cry, okay? Let’s not be angry anymore,” Zhang Junyang quickly added, trying to comfort her.
With the comforting words of the others, Gu An'an finally stopped crying and began to eat her meal while sobbing. Seeing this, everyone present was relieved.
Gu Xinyan and Xiaobai, who hadn't dared to utter a sound, finally breathed a sigh of relief and silently began to eat their food.
Xiao Bai looked around and silently picked up the fried fish that had just fallen on the table. With its little paws, it moved towards Lu Yunting next to it.
Lu Yunting: "........."
He paused in his drinking, unable to resist a slight smile playing on his lips, which he concealed with the water glass.
After finishing their meal, Lu Yunting and the others helped clean up before leaving. Grandma Gu took Gu An'an back to her room, and Gu Xinyan quietly carried Xiaobai back to her room as well.
After staring at each other for a while in the room, Gu Xinyan finally spoke up, "Tell me, why did you suddenly blurt out something like that?"
[That's because the fish the host fried was so delicious! Little White couldn't resist! This is the first time Little White has ever eaten anything so delicious.]
The little white paws drew circles on the bed, muttering to itself.
Gu Xinyan: "........."
Sigh, I should have known better than to tease him back then. But even so, if I really went back to that time, I might still make the same choice. Oh well, I'll just have to coax the little guy tomorrow.
"Oh well, we have a mission the day after tomorrow. Let's see if we can coax the little one out of the way tomorrow." Gu Xinyan finally shrugged helplessly.
Upon hearing this, Xiaobai nodded its little head in agreement with its host, as if it had forgotten something.
But after thinking about it, I still couldn't figure out what I had forgotten, so I shook my head and banished those thoughts from my mind!
**
Throughout the following day, Gu Xinyan tried everything she could, but she couldn't get a single smile from the little guy, and the same was true for Xiaobai.
But with the mission imminent, there was no extra time to coax him, so he could only carry Little White and slink away to the time-travel room.
Seeing the utterly hopeless expressions on her and Xiaobai's faces, Gu Xinya and Li Chendong found it somewhat amusing.
Judging from their expressions, it seems that Gu An'an hasn't been coaxed yet. Even Lu Yunting, who is usually quiet, couldn't help but purse his lips.
"Xinyan, don't be discouraged. When you go on this mission, bring back a small gift for An'an. I'm sure he'll like it very much," Gu Xinya comforted her.
"Yes, we don't know where we'll be going this time. We'll give you some advice, and I'm sure An'an will like it."
Li Chendong quickly chimed in, as the spot to join the new time-travel team had fallen to him, but he didn't dare to be too cocky at the moment.
"Well, if that doesn't work, I'll make him a tank out of bullet casings!" Lu Yunting couldn't help but blurt out.
Upon hearing this, everyone in the room turned to look at him. They were surprised to find that he had such a skill.
Just as I was about to ask something, Commander Zhang arrived with a group of academicians.
"You're all here. This time we're going to a new dimension, so please be careful. If you need anything, just let us know," Commander Zhang said with a smile, looking at the four people inside the transmigration room.
Actually, with Lu Yunting around, he felt relatively at ease, but he still felt a little uneasy every time these kids went on a long trip, and he had to give them some instructions each time.
