"For example, if you choose to keep one leg immobile, you need to do so for three years, but if you keep both legs immobile, you can do so for one year."
Xu Zhaoyue didn't like the example given, and her legs felt a little cold after hearing it. "Then what are these next to it?" The first column was her physical condition, and there was a second column.
“These are your bargaining chips. For example, the inheritance rights to the Xu family are worth a thousand, but the shops you own are only worth a hundred, because losing them would be a small loss for you.”
Xu Zhaoyue nodded, she understood what was going on, "Oh, I really have to thank you for coming all this way, it seems the next injury will be quite serious."
"Yes, because the system promised you that you would be safe and well after you returned, and that all your wishes would come true... But the system cannot change the established way the world operates, so this method was devised."
And so, Xu Zhaoyue spent the whole night arranging combinations, and finally chose one before Little Pumpkin left.
"Master, if you choose this way, it really won't harm you at all. Then I'll go back and submit it." After Little Pumpkin finished speaking, there was a crackling sound of electricity, and then nothing happened.
Xu Zhaoyue stared blankly at the ceiling. It had only been half a year; let the story unfold as it would.
"Miss, did you not sleep well last night?" When Yue Lanxing came to find Xu Zhaoyue, he saw her dozing off, and he remembered that he hadn't slept well last night either.
"Hmm, insomnia. It's probably because I exercised too much before bed last night, which made it harder to fall asleep." Xu Zhaoyue took a sip of coffee.
"Oh, then we won't stay out so long next time." Yue Lanxing replied dryly. Just as he turned to leave, Xu Zhaoyue called out to him, "Wait a minute, I'm going to the Fang family tomorrow. You can come with me."
"Going to the Fang family? Okay, is there anything I need to prepare?" Yue Lanxing asked, turning around.
"No need. I'm going to discuss some business. By the way, go and call Xiaonan over." Xu Zhaoyue needed to make some arrangements first, which had to be completed within two or three days. The system hadn't given a specific timeframe, so it could happen at any time.
Yue Lanxing sensed that the young lady still seemed preoccupied, but he still went to call Xiao Nan first.
"Miss, did you call me?" Xiao Nan came in, not knowing why her mistress had called her over.
Xu Zhaoyue reached out her hand, and Xiao Nan took it after seeing this. "Miss, did Butler Yue upset you? You seem a little downcast."
"You could even tell that? You have such a good eye." Xu Zhaoyue gave her a thumbs up. "I had a nightmare last night. I dreamt that I was locked up somewhere and you couldn't find me."
Xu Zhaoyue's words, coupled with her expression, truly resembled someone in the back row having a nightmare. Xiao Nan quickly comforted her, "Miss, don't be afraid. How could I not find you? Dreams are always the opposite of reality."
“But I had a similar dream before I went abroad. It was a really scary dream, and I felt really anxious during that time, which is why I wanted to escape.” Xu Zhaoyue then talked about her trip abroad last year.
Xiao Nan never expected that this would happen back then. The young lady's decision to go abroad was indeed very sudden. They only had about ten days of preparation before they set off. Little did she know that the young lady was having a nightmare.
"Then what should we do? Should we go away for another year?" Xiao Nan didn't doubt the truthfulness of Xu Zhaoyue's words and asked directly how to solve the problem.
Xu Zhaoyue shook her head. "I don't know. Back then, I had a feeling that things would get better if I got away from here, and I still feel that way now, but I don't have any specific direction."
"That's why I'm scared. I'm afraid you won't be able to find me." Xu Zhaoyue's hands clenched tighter and tighter, and Xiao Nan could clearly feel her mistress's tension and fear.
"But when I woke up, I thought I saw you guys in front of me. Luckily I saw you, otherwise I would have cried when I got up just now." Xu Zhaoyue patted her chest to comfort herself.
Xiao Nan freed one hand to pat her back, "Alright, alright, Miss, don't be afraid."
"Yeah, I'm not scared, I'm just a little uncomfortable. By the way, you have all the accounts for my shops, right?" Xu Zhaoyue then brought up other things.
Xiao Nan nodded and said, "Yes, they're all with me."
"So all the things my mother left me have been transferred to me, right?" Xu Zhaoyue thought of this again. She needed to figure out all her assets and make sure no one could touch them.
"Everything is there. Except for the shop which is in the open, everything else is kept with Aunt Wu. Miss, why are you asking about this?" Xiao Nan asked, looking puzzled.
"I was thinking, if I really disappear and you need to come find me, then I'll need money, right?" Xu Zhaoyue said very seriously, and Xiao Nan felt that she was preparing for the possibility of disappearing.
Xiao Nan still couldn't understand, so she squatted down and approached Xu Zhaoyue. "Miss, if you feel like you'll be locked up or disappear, we can just stay in the villa and I'll stay here with you."
"I know you will always be there for me, but it's already commendable that you could foresee danger. What's meant to happen will happen, and as long as the final outcome is good, that's all that matters."
Xu Zhaoyue saw that Xiao Nan completely believed her, which could be considered a reminder for the future. If Xiao Nan remembered what they had said today when she really disappeared, she would definitely be able to cheer up and wait for her.
"By the way, I'm only telling you about this. I don't want other people to worry, and I also think that this kind of dream doesn't make sense. You're the best to me, and you believe everything I say."
"Of course, everything Miss says is based on evidence. But should we tell Butler Yue that he is your bodyguard and is always by your side? If anything happens to Miss, it will definitely be because he failed to protect you properly."
Xiao Nan was already gritting her teeth, as if she could already see that it was because of Yue Lanxing's problem that her mistress got into trouble.
