Chapter 216 Non-overlapping Situations
The house he lived in looked quite nice; it was a one- or two-story villa.
The couple who bought him looked like intellectuals. They even gave him a clean and presentable set of clothes and were discussing where to send him to school.
Qiao Mei noticed that this family had even hired a nanny.
The family's actual situation is quite obvious.
If Xiao Hai leaves with her, not only will he not be able to go to school, but he won't even be able to guarantee his basic needs for food and shelter.
Qiao Mei stood not far from the door, listening to the boy's loud cries and howls. In the end, she hardened her heart and left, but the tears that welled up in her eyes were unstoppable.
She is now free, but she has no relatives left.
But she didn't regret it, because she knew that this was perhaps the best outcome she could achieve at this stage.
All of this is thanks to Ao Cang.
The dragon god she never imagined would actually exist in reality.
"Cangcang... I hope that next time we meet, I won't be in such a sorry state..."
........
After Ao Cang awoke, he could still clearly remember what the intense pain he felt in that time and space was like.
However, as he remained conscious for longer periods, the pain gradually subsided until it disappeared completely.
The pain may have disappeared, but the scenes he had witnessed remained vivid in his mind.
The situation was urgent, and he didn't have time to ask her too many questions, but he could still guess something from her disheveled and haggard appearance, the obvious finger marks on her neck, and the fact that she had changed her clothes.
She was dressed up so beautifully when she came back, but she changed her clothes completely. He didn't dare to think about what had happened in between.
Upon closer reflection, a violent emotion began to uncontrollably permeate his golden eyes and his entire being.
"Cangcang, why are you awake so early?"
Qiao Mei's somewhat dazed voice interrupted Ao Cang's thoughts. By the time he realized what was happening, Qiao Mei had already pulled the dragon's body into her arms, and she was gently rubbing her head against the dragon's belly.
"It's Sunday, and I'm playing at home as usual. I don't have anything else to do. Are you going out to do something? If not, keep sleeping. Why are you up so early?"
Ao Cang snapped out of his daze, quickly transformed into human form, and pulled the tiny girl into his arms, resting his chin on the top of her head. He suppressed the negative emotions in his golden eyes and hummed in agreement.
He didn't ask her whether the scenes he inexplicably saw were real or fake.
Instead, he waited until she fell asleep again before injecting his divine power into her brain, intending to investigate it himself.
When the sky outside was bright, birds were chirping, and the morning mist was dispelled by the rising sun, he opened his eyes again, looking at the girl who was still fast asleep in his arms with a complicated expression.
He did indeed see those scenes and people he had seen in her past memories.
But his presence was the only thing missing.
There was no memory of her ever talking to or spending time with him.
But upon closer examination, one thing is quite strange.
That dagger she had in her hand on the way to the coal mine owner's house in his car appeared out of thin air.
If he hadn't handed it to her, how would she have gotten this thing?
Another point is how she was able to accurately locate the family to which her brother was sold.
It was clearly him who provided her with the clues; without him, she absolutely could not have done it on her own.
This question lingered until Qiao Mei woke up and repaired the [Black Crow Boy]'s mecha again; Ao Cang still couldn't figure it out.
So I thought, should I try to ask him a little?
"An'an, there's something I want to ask you."
Qiao Mei glanced at him and told him to just speak.
"It's you..."
He wanted to ask her if she still had memories of her past life, and also to ask her about their encounter in her previous life.
But the words stuck in his throat and he just couldn't say them.
After hesitating for a long time, he could only manage to say the word "you".
Qiao Mei found it a little strange, so she stopped what she was doing and looked up at him with her red eyes.
In my line of sight, the boy looked somewhat anxious, and there was a thin layer of sweat on his forehead.
Although his mouth was slightly open, it looked as if someone had stuffed something into his throat, which looked very strange.
"Cangcang, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
Ao Cang shook his head, thinking that he might as well say it by typing.
He then looked down, turned on the quantum computer bracelet on his wrist, and started typing.
But the same goes for typing; I can only type up to "you," and I can't type out anything I want to ask after that.
If he still can't understand it now that he's here, then perhaps there's an invisible force blocking him, and he'd truly be a fool.
After feeling discouraged, he looked at Qiao Mei's red eyes filled with confusion and could only try to change the subject by bringing up other topics.
"I'd like to ask, how's your progress in the Star Monster All-People Professional League going? What rank do you think you can reach?"
This Star Monster All-People Professional League has four stages.
There were over two thousand participating teams when I first met them.
The first phase ended yesterday, with just over a thousand remaining.
The competition rules state that only teams that make it to the top 50 will be able to start receiving large amounts of StarCraft Coins as rewards and endorsement opportunities.
Based on this situation, it's estimated that she will have to persevere until the fourth stage.
After thinking for a moment, she told him that she had cooperated quite well with Xu Heyu and the others yesterday and had already entered the top 1,000 teams.
"I'm not sure how far I'll go, but I really want to make it into the top 50 so I can get a huge bonus, which I'll use to support you!"
Although Grandpa Xu gave her many shops, she currently has no idea how to take over and operate them, so she left them all with Xu Hui. After all, Xu Hui knows more and has much better resources and connections than she does.
So until she understands how to manage the Xu family's influence, the only way she can make money right now is by participating in competitions.
Ao Cang knew that she participated in the Star Monster All-People Professional League for him. After sighing, he wanted to say that he could earn money now and help her.
Then he remembered that the money he earned was useless to him, so he could only keep quiet and not say anything more.
But this afternoon, when she started participating in the second phase of the Star Monster All-People Professional League, he chose to watch the game holographically.
This means that only he and Qiao Mei can see him; others cannot see him as a spectator.
It was only after entering that Ao Cang discovered that Qiao Mei's group included not only Xu Heyu, but also Zuo Chenxing and Yan Qing.
If he wasn't mistaken, the way these people looked at Qiao Mei was a little strange.
Just then, Xu Heyu messaged Qiao Mei privately in the bureau, asking if they should meet alone after the holiday and return to the Federal Academy to discuss the arrangements for the next two stages of the competition.
The clever little cutie has already guessed why they don't overlap!
