"How can there still be such a persistent person? We've already rejected him, and he still came to the cemetery. How did he even know this place?" Wei Deng was furious. "Sister, you absolutely cannot be with him. This man is very cunning."
“There is absolutely no such possibility.” Wei Zhu’s eyes were cold. “He probably checked the contact address I left at the factory before, and then asked the neighbors. Luckily we didn’t come back this year, otherwise I don’t know how long he would have harassed us.”
"He wouldn't actually go to the provincial capital, would he?"
"I don't know." Wei Zhu couldn't understand why Jing Jun had his eye on her. What was it about her that made him so persistent? She had rejected him so many times, why hadn't he given up?
In fact, Jing Jun was also weighing whether it was worth continuing to pursue Wei Zhu. Judging from Wei Zhu's attitude, it was obvious that she would not accept him. It was a pity to waste such a good wife candidate. He didn't know if he could find someone as good as her next time.
If I can eventually win her over, it's worth the effort now. The worst thing is that I'll spend all my energy and money but still not get her.
"Pah, does she really think she's some kind of celestial being? Acting so high and mighty, let's see what kind of rich man she can marry in the future."
In the end, Jing Jun decided to give up. It wasn't worth giving up his current job for a likely failure. There were plenty of good women out there, and Wei Zhu wasn't the only one he could control.
After returning to the provincial capital and recounting her encounter with Jing Jun, Song Xia's gaze turned cold. Regardless of what Jing Jun might do in the future, she should gather all the necessary information about him.
"Mom, I won't be going out for a while."
Wei Zhu was afraid of running into Jing Jun in the provincial capital, because if they met again here, it would be troublesome to get rid of him.
"Okay, just stay home and study."
Song Xia decided to keep a close eye on Jing Jun's whereabouts. Regardless of whether he still intended to harass her daughter or shift his target, she could not let her guard down. After all, in her previous life, Jing Jun had killed her daughter in a fit of rage. Who knew if he would harm someone else in this life?
"Xiao Ling, I'm leaving all this to you."
"No problem, Xiaxia. By the way, the space has become much larger now, so you can plant some of your favorite vegetables in there, and you can also raise some delicious little animals."
Song Xia's eyes lit up: "Really? Is that possible?"
What troubled her was that although there were many delicious foods in this world, she couldn't tell which ones had been sprayed with pesticides and which ones hadn't. Moreover, many fruits were artificially ripened and didn't have the sweetness of naturally ripened ones. If she could grow some herself, that would be wonderful. As for wild animals, she couldn't even think about it.
Does it need any maintenance?
"Just sow the seeds and let them grow naturally, like wild vegetables and fruits. Anyway, there's plenty of space. If they don't grow in this area, they'll grow in another."
"That makes sense. Will this space of Xiaoling become a completely new world in the future?"
"I don't know yet. If this space could connect to Zero World, then Zero World could be saved. But I'm also afraid that the destruction of Zero World will pollute this clean new world."
What would a destroyed Zero World be like?
"My memories tell me that Zero World has lost all vitality. It is a world abandoned by the rules, no longer allowing the birth of any new life. It is desolate, filled with the aura of death, and devoid of hope."
As she spoke, Xiaoling showed Song Xia some photos. Initially, based on her verbal descriptions, Song Xia only felt distressed, but after seeing them, she felt endless sorrow, heartache, and despair. What kind of world is this?
She had witnessed the cruelty of wartime and the bloodshed of the apocalypse, but never before had she felt such despair. Just from the photos, one could see that this was an abandoned and forgotten world. Everything was gray and gloomy, with no sunshine, no breeze, no rain, not even air, and not even the dust could be seen.
Some lifeless planets may have geological disasters such as volcanoes, ice caps, and storms, but the Zero World truly has nothing.
Xiao Ling's sorrowful voice rang out: "Perhaps the Zero World has long since perished. What way out can a world forgotten by the rules possibly have?"
"Then we will carry on the expectations that Zero World has given you, Xiao Ling. The birth of the new space may just be the birth of a new Zero World consciousness!"
Xiaoling was surprised by Song Xia's explanation, but also found it absurd.
“Absurd? I don’t think so.” Song Xia smiled slightly. “Xiao Ling, we have saved so many worlds. This is the energy that many worlds have given back to us. Even the rules will make an exception! Perhaps the Zero World entrusted the final task to you with this meaning. The ‘god’ who created you must understand the rules better than us.”
“Xiaxia, I think you’re right.” Xiaoling was quickly convinced by Song Xia’s idea. “Anyway, we’re getting better and better. But I have a feeling that I can appear less and less in each world. It’s like these worlds are rejecting me.”
“Xiaoling, the more you say that, the more certain I am of my guess. It means that your space may really be a new world. When the new world has complete rules, you will be completely unable to enter these worlds.”
"Huh? What about our mission then?"
"Maybe that day will be the day the mission is accomplished."
"But there are so many lovely children, who will save them?"
"Perhaps I will go on alone, or perhaps a new person will come along to replace me."
Xiao Ling asked nervously, "Will we be separated?"
"If you don't need me anymore by then, how about I retire in your new world?"
"Okay!" Xiaoling jumped up excitedly. "Then Xiaxia, let's grow more of the things you like to eat!"
"Um."
Song Xia specially set aside a day to go to the farmers' market and the flower market. She not only bought various vegetable seeds and fruit trees, but also some beautiful flowers. When she learned that Xiao Ling said there was a small river in the space, she also bought a lot of fish fry.
"Actually, I've collected them in every world." Xiaoling showed her the seeds, fish eggs, bird eggs, and other things she had collected in various worlds. "They will all hatch at a certain time."
"That's wonderful," Song Xia exclaimed sincerely, as if she could already see the birdsong and fragrant flowers of the future.
"Xiaxia, I'm going to get busy now. Call me if you need anything."
"Um."
As her consciousness returned to the real world, Song Xia also pulled her thoughts back. Since Jing Jun had Xiao Ling monitoring him, there was no need to worry for the time being. She should go and see if there were any suitable shops around. Carrying things up and down the stairs every day with a small cart was getting a bit tedious. It would be more convenient to have a shop.
