In this life, Chen Xiaoru only gave birth to a daughter, which made her feel a little regretful. Later, when she wanted to have another child, she unexpectedly discovered that Zhou Yuxuan had undergone a vasectomy.
"Why...why do you want to get a sterilization?" Chen Xiaoru widened her eyes and asked in disbelief, with a hint of grievance and confusion in her voice.
"I have you and the baby, that's enough for me," Zhou Yuxuan hugged her and whispered softly in her ear, his tone full of doting, "I don't want you to give birth to another brat to compete with me for my affection."
Chen Xiaoru was speechless after hearing his explanation, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. She gently hit his chest and scolded him, "You! Really!"
She actually felt a little regretful. If she had known this would happen, she should have taken the Multi-Fetus Pill and had more children to earn more points. However, things had come to this point, and she could only accept reality. Chen Xiaoru sighed softly and leaned her head on Zhou Yuxuan's shoulder.
Fortunately, thanks to Chen Xiaoru's intervention, the apocalypse ended prematurely, lasting only two years. During this time, the researchers at the institute toiled day and night, finally successfully developing a potion two years later that was nearly as effective as Lingquan Water. This was undoubtedly great news, offering hope to the people.
When Chen Xiaoru turned 70, her health took a sharp turn for the worse. Despite her exceptional physique, she lacked the power of supernatural powers to withstand the ravages of time. In her final moments, Zhou Yuxuan held her hand tightly, his eyes red and his voice hoarse, "Wife, please don't leave me, okay?"
Chen Xiaoru's breathing became weaker and weaker. She tried hard to open her eyes and looked at the man who had accompanied her all her life. Her heart was filled with reluctance. She raised her hand and wanted to touch his face, but found that she had no strength left.
"Zhou Yuxuan," she whispered his name, her voice weak and gentle, "You have to... take good care of yourself. Remember... to eat and sleep on time, and treat yourself well. Live well... I... have to go first."
A tear slipped from the corner of Chen Xiaoru's eye. She used up her last bit of strength and said the words that were buried deep in her heart: "Zhou Yuxuan, I love you."
The surroundings were completely silent, with only the beeping of medical equipment, as if playing a mournful elegy for this fading love. The ward was filled with sadness, and the sunlight outside the window became dim.
"System, let's go!" Chen Xiaoru said silently to the system in her heart, with a hint of relief and relief in her voice.
"Okay, host." The system responded, its voice as calm as ever.
Afterwards, the system took Chen Xiaoru's soul away from this world, leaving Zhou Yuxuan alone, facing the empty hospital bed, tears streaming down his face.
…………………………
"Congratulations to the host for completing another world. Spread the flowers." The system's cheerful voice sounded in Chen Xiaoru's mind, full of joy.
"Come on, system, let's draw the lottery first." Chen Xiaoru rubbed her hands, her eyes flashing with anticipation.
"Okay, host, start silently." The system responded.
Chen Xiaoru took a deep breath, slowly closed her eyes, and said silently in her heart: "Begin!"
A huge, colorful turntable appeared in her mind, spinning rapidly, and the pointer jumped on each prize grid, which was dazzling.
Chen Xiaoru's heartbeat accelerated as the turntable turned. She stared at the pointer closely, afraid of missing any details.
"Stop!" Chen Xiaoru suddenly opened her eyes and shouted loudly, her voice full of tension and anticipation.
The turntable slowly slowed down, and every tick of the pointer tugged at her heartstrings, as if time itself had slowed down. Finally, the pointer stopped at a glittering golden grid, gleaming with an alluring light.
"Congratulations to the host for obtaining an airborne experience (random use)." There was a hint of excitement in the system's voice.
"System, what's the use of this?" Chen Xiaoru blinked and asked curiously, feeling a little confused.
"Host, have you ever heard of falling from the sky? It means falling into the small world with your own identity." The system explained patiently.
"Is that so? It doesn't seem very useful," Chen Xiaoru said with a hint of disappointment. She had been expecting a more practical reward, but instead, it was a rather useless "airdrop experience."
"Host, don't be like this! This is quite effective, you will know when the time comes." The system quickly comforted with a hint of flattery in its voice.
Chen Xiaoru curled her lips and sighed helplessly: "Forget it, let's settle it!"
"Okay, congratulations to the host for completing the fourth world. You will be rewarded with 100,000 basic points, 1,000 points for giving birth to a child for Zhou Yuxuan, and an additional 500,000 points for the host. The host will spend 100,000 points during the mission, and the remaining points will be used." The system's voice was full of joy, as if it was happier than Chen Xiaoru.
Chen Xiaoru was stunned, her eyes widening slightly, and she couldn't believe her ears. "System, why are there so many extra points this time?" She originally thought that a few tens of thousands of points would be good, but she didn't expect it to be 500,000! This is simply pie in the sky!
"That's because of the host, the apocalypse ended early, so the reward is much higher." The system explained patiently, with a hint of pride in its voice.
Chen Xiaoru's mood instantly became extremely excited. She felt as if she was in the midst of a huge surprise, and her heart was pounding. She clenched her fists tightly, trying hard to suppress the urge to cheer.
"Not bad, then let's go to the next world." Chen Xiaoru nodded with satisfaction and said to the system, with a hint of relief and anticipation in her voice.
"Okay, but host, please wait a moment. I need to erase and seal your memories of this world." The system responded, its voice as calm and professional as ever.
Chen Xiaoru gently closed her eyes, feeling a gentle force slowly draw away all her memories of this world, like the receding tide. The memories of meeting, understanding, and loving Zhou Yuxuan, the days and nights spent struggling to survive in the apocalypse, the arduous journey of fighting for the future of humanity, all transformed into a ball of soft, shimmering light, quietly floating in her consciousness.
This process did not last long, just like a short and beautiful dream. When Chen Xiaoru opened her eyes again, she was ready to face new challenges.
"Okay, host, the memory has been sealed. Now, I will teleport you directly to the next world." The system prompts.
As soon as she finished speaking, Chen Xiaoru felt the space around her distorted, and a familiar yet unfamiliar feeling of weightlessness came over her. She knew that a new journey had begun.
