Therefore, he dared not give up easily, fearing that if he relaxed, those people would find an opportunity to achieve their goals.

Gu Zuozuo quietly walked to the door and stood there silently, listening to the suppressed sobs of the man inside.

[Host, what's wrong with him?]

"You're home now, you must be happy."

The system's tentacles, seemingly understanding yet not quite, reveal something it does.

It would be happy to return to its own star system, but it wouldn't cry, because mechanical life forms don't have tears, unless they've really lost their minds.

Once the man in the room had calmed down again, she went back inside to remove the acupuncture needles from him.

Ma Jingjun had calmed down, and his ears turned red with embarrassment when he saw her.

"Thank you. Also, how did I get back to China?"

Gu Zuozuo deftly removed the silver needles from his body one by one.

"I brought you back."

She didn't bother to say more. She had already informed Wang Erzhu about the man's situation and believed that a reply would arrive soon. How to handle it was someone else's business, and it wasn't her place to worry about it.

Ma Jingjun wasn't oblivious to her coldness; he pursed his lips and didn't continue the conversation.

"My...my mother...is she alright?"

When his elderly mother was mentioned, Ma Jingjun's eyes reddened again.

When he joined the army, most families were just starting to have enough to eat. I wonder how she, at such an advanced age, managed to raise her young nephew.

"It's alright. Do you want to go back and take a look?"

He glanced at the pale-faced man who couldn't even get up, and sighed again.

If I go to see Grandma Ma looking like this, I'm afraid Grandma Ma's health won't be able to handle it.

"Forget it, you'd better not go see her. She's only recently started to feel a bit better. If you show up in front of her looking like this, you'll probably scare her."

Upon hearing that his mother had just recovered, Ma Jingjun became anxious and tried to get up, but his body had been injected with the medicine for too long.

His bones were too soft and his muscles too weak. He even had trouble sitting up and struggled for a long time without making a splash.

"Your body is still too fragile. If you want to keep your life, you'd better not move."

Ma Jingjun collapsed back in defeat, lying there motionless for a long time.

"Left left!"

The familiar voices arrived before the person did.

Gu Zuozuo's expression changed slightly. Before Ma Jingjun could react, she struck him on the back of the neck with a palm strike. In Ma Jingjun's incredulous gaze, she wrapped him in a blanket and threw him into the space along with the bed.

Just as she finished breathing a sigh of relief, a petite figure rushed in and threw herself into her arms. An indescribable scent instantly filled Gu Zuozuo's sense of smell, almost making her fly away on the spot.

Her slender, pale fingers pressed against the person's forehead, pushing them three feet away.

"Qi Meng! Did you fall into the toilet? It smells so bad!"

"Pfft~"

Upon hearing this, Meng Tian, ​​who arrived a step later, ignored Qi Meng's resentful gaze and burst out laughing.

"She didn't fall into the toilet, so it's pretty much over."

It turns out that two families in the village got into a fight today.

Qi Meng, who loves to join in the fun, would never let this opportunity pass by.

She ran off excitedly to watch the commotion, only to find herself caught in the crossfire of a fight between two families.

It's unclear who started the fight, but after it began, someone maliciously threw a bucket of organic fertilizer out.

To everyone's surprise, the person who was splashed didn't get a drop of water on them.

Qi Meng, who was quietly squatting in the corner watching the commotion, was drenched in water.

"Ugh... Stop talking! Ugh!"

Qi Meng, who had been vomiting all day but couldn't get anything out, tearfully tried to hug Gu Zuozuo and beg for comfort.

To everyone's surprise, Gu Zuozuo dodged away swiftly, her disdain completely undisguised.

"Stay away from me, you stink."

Qi Meng let out a mournful howl and pounced on it.

How could she be so obviously disgusted? Doesn't she have any pride?!
