With her body barely clinging to life, Da Yao resolutely refused Mingmei's help. She dragged her heavy steps and left the house alone, carrying her "tribute".
In an instant, only Mingmei and Muchen remained in the empty room.
The two looked at each other, and for a moment, there was a slight silence in the air.
"Shall we go to the library to read tomorrow? Or should we book an online library session?"
Taking advantage of the fact that no one was around, Mu Chenye stopped hiding his intentions and directly asked Mingmei what she should do after the game ended tomorrow.
"Didn't you know we added a combat class tomorrow?"
Mingmei had nothing more to say about the matter of finding a group of students suspected of using connections to have "friendly exchanges" with other schools at the end of the semester.
Ever since I was notified that I was selected to represent the school in an exchange program, my class schedule has been changing every few days.
A constantly changing class schedule?
Seeing that Mingmei didn't seem to be joking, Mu Chen also fell silent.
Heh~
Martial arts class?
"And now you should think about what you want to wish for."
Mingmei looked up at Mu Chen and said, "Be careful not to crash, or your wish won't come true."
Are you worried about me?
"Ah... I guess so." After answering the question, her bright eyes flickered as she added, "After all, if you buy all the boxed lunches and can't pass the level, it'll really damage my reputation."
Mu Chen listened to Mingmei's explanation, smiled and nodded, then looked past Mingmei and at the little fox standing at the door.
Clearly, it was Mu Chen's turn.
"The girl who just left, and those who went earlier..."
Mu Chen looked at the bloodstains on the ground that had not yet dried, seemingly puzzled.
The little fox cupped its hands in greeting and said, "They have already left. Please write it down for me..."
Before the little fox could finish speaking, Mu Chen placed his hands on Mingmei's shoulders, patted her gently, and whispered as he passed by her, "Wait for me."
After the little fox left, Mingmei stopped guarding the room and stood under the maple tree in the courtyard, wondering whether she should listen to what Mu Chen and the fox fairy had said.
[Host, would you like to know Zhen Po's previous wish?]
[You can not only live stream, but also replay?]
【No.】
Mingmei: ...
However, if you ask, I can tell you the answer.
[Was it unsuccessful?]
How did you know, host?
"If it had succeeded, the little fox would have said that their wish had been fulfilled and left, instead of saying that they had already left."
Mingmei isn't stupid. If Zhen Hu's wish comes true, the little fox will simply say that he made a wish and there's no reason for him to forget it once he gets here.
He wished that the fox spirit would do more good deeds.
"Then what?"
The fox spirit told him to get lost.
Mingmei: "..."
After a moment of silence, Mingmei decided that she shouldn't think about Zhen Po's actions anymore, and sighed, "I... I'd better see what wish Mu Chen made."
Mingmei, who had been standing there for quite a while, didn't know why she was so conflicted about whether or not to watch Mu Chen's wish, even though other players watched it without hesitation.
After much hesitation, she finally made up her mind when it came to Mu Chen.
"Why should I watch it? If you want to know, just ask me."
Just then, a familiar voice suddenly came. Mingmei turned around abruptly and saw the scholar in the green robe standing under the eaves, looking at her with a smile.
With just one glance, Mingmei felt the scenery around her begin to change, and indistinct noises kept pouring into her ears.
"Wow! The bride is so beautiful!"
When Mingmei came to her senses, she saw a red silk ribbon being lifted. The moment the ribbon was lifted, she looked up and met Mu Chen's familiar and gentle eyes once again.
Congratulatory voices kept coming from all around. Mingmei rolled her eyes blankly and saw the bright red wedding dress on Mu Chen, while she herself... was also wearing a wedding dress.
【Gui Gui, what happened?】
[Even the ghost doesn't know, and she's really upset!]
This really fooled Mingmei and her AI. How did she and Mu Chen suddenly get married?
What's going on with this game?
Before Mingmei could react, a series of indistinct noises filled her ears. When she came to her senses again, she was already dressed in ordinary clothes, with her hair in a woman's bun, serving tea to the two elderly people sitting at the head of the table with the people around her.
They are the two elderly people in the game who raised the Ming family girl.
My wish is simple: I want to live an ordinary, mundane life with her. Life is but a fleeting moment, nothing more than a blink of an eye for an empress. My soul will be the offering.
Looking at Mu Chen's face, Mingmei didn't know why, but the scene of Mu Chen making a wish flashed through her mind. Seeing her dazed look, Mu Chen helped her up, took her hand, and said gently, "Wife, let's go for a walk."
"...Alright, my husband."
After Mingmei finished speaking, Mu Chen paused slightly as he turned around, then suddenly burst into laughter, laughing very loudly.
Smiling, Mu Chen held Mingmei's hand tightly as they walked outside. The scenery around them changed constantly with the seasons. As they walked and stopped, decades had passed.
Just as Mu Chen said, life is fleeting, youth fades and hair turns white...
In the bustling teahouse, two elderly people with white hair sat at a table, surrounded by several younger people.
This is the most famous teahouse for miles around, because it has the best storyteller.
