But after spending these days together, his injuries were healed under her care, and she would sit next to him and read books when he slept. If he was awakened by a nightmare, he would see her sitting quietly next to him as long as he looked up.
So I unconsciously trusted and relied on her more than others.

"Let's go. I'll first teach you how to control this power so that it won't affect other people." Chu Ci said this and led him forward.
Jiuxi's eyes lit up, and then he pursed his lips and whispered, "Will I not affect the Great Wizard?"
These words also sounded pitiful. She just followed Chu Ci like that, with a look of grievance and fear on her charming fair face, her hands tangled together, as if she was a little at a loss.
"Speaking of influence, I may have a greater influence on you." Chu Ci raised her hand and patted his shoulder, blinking.
After all, he only possesses a little bit of this power in his body, which can bring bad luck to others and himself, but this kind of magical power is very strong on Chu Ci's side.
Jiuqi seemed to have finally reacted, blinked, nodded, and said "hmm".
The pink lightning fish behind them watched their actions, paused, and after keeping a distance from them, followed them into the house, moving with some caution.
Jiuxi followed Chu Ci for two steps, then saw Chu Ci pause and suddenly said, "Wait a moment."
Jiuxi also paused, subconsciously looking at Chu Ci, the light in his eyes dimmed, "What's wrong?"
"I left home too early this morning and didn't eat properly. I'll study after I finish eating."
When Jiuqi heard this for the first time, he didn't react for a moment. He just looked at Chu Ci's face and saw that Chu Ci had a tense face and nodded seriously, as if this was a very important matter.
The black dress made her skin look even whiter. The way she tilted her head, pursed her lips slightly and looked at him thoughtfully had an indescribable...seriously cute look to her?
Her expression made Jiuqi relax instantly, and he couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips slightly.
'Jiuxi Love Value +2, currently 21.'
The pink lightning fish behind him, which had been drooping its head, suddenly became energetic after hearing this. It quickly used its round head to push the bubble created by Chu Ci to trap the deep-sea fish, and moved forward.
It pushed the bubble in front of Chu Ci, looking more excited than anyone else. This stupid fish had no memory and immediately forgot what Chu Ci and Jiuxi had said to it before. It swung its tail and swam around Chu Ci happily, while using its round head to push Chu Ci's hand.
Jiuqi frowned slightly, subconsciously using his hands to block the pink lightning fish, then naturally took the seat next to Chu Ci, nodded, and responded obediently, "Okay."
This time, Chu Ci also brought back some aquatic plants from the ocean to make soup, but the food resources on the seabed are really limited. Chu Ci's real cooking skills are really average, which can be seen from the half-burnt dishes he cooked for the target at the beginning of the mission.
