The moonlight above was shrouded by dark clouds, and the night grew darker.
The empty yard was deserted, which seemed a bit eerie.
A man in a black nightgown hid behind a tree trunk, clutching his injured chest. His mask completely obscured his face, revealing only a pair of light brown eyes.
He stared intently at the figure moving around in the yard, like a wolf cub ready to attack at any time.
If that woman dares to come over, he will break her neck!
"Meow!~"
A frightened black cat jumped out from the grass and ran quickly past Sophie.
"It turned out to be a kitten."
Sophie stopped and smiled slightly in the direction the black cat left.
The man heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this.
The next second, the woman's enlarged face suddenly appeared upside down in front of him.
"Oh, there's another little kitty hiding here!~"
Sophie flew to the man hiding behind the tree, her wet black hair sticking tightly to her fair face, making her look like a ghost.
The man's heart instantly rose to his throat.
"Ghost, ghost!"
The man was so frightened that he couldn't even breathe.
With a "thump", he fell at Sophie's feet.
ha?
Are you so timid and yet you still learn to steal things?
Su·Naughty Ghost·Fei complained online.
She didn't want to meddle in other people's business and just leave.
A thought flashed through my mind.
Maybe saving a life can increase your kindness points?
Sophie's eyes gleamed, and she raised her hand and carried him into her room.
Relying on the plot memory provided by the system, Sophie successfully dug out the iron box under the bed.
The moment she opened the medicine box, she fell silent.
Damn, where is the medicine box?
What the hell is this box of pornographic pictures?!
[Ding! Innocence value -5.]
The system's prompt tone is simple and crude.
Damn!
Why should she take the blame for what Lin Qingyin left behind?!
Sophie angrily closed the unsightly iron box.
But this person still has to be saved, otherwise wouldn’t her points be deducted in vain?
Sophie turned around and squatted in front of the man. She raised her hand and tore open his clothes on his chest to check his injuries.
Fortunately, the system did not accuse her of "desecrating an innocent boy" this time.
After a careful examination, Sophie confirmed that he had only suffered simple skin injuries and was in a coma due to nervous tension and excessive shock.
Sophie was unusually generous and spent 300 magic points to exchange for a healing spell.
Lilac magic surged in her palm.
But in a moment, the man's bloody wound healed.
The system's bonus point prompt also sounded.
[Ding! The host successfully triggered and completed the "Helping Others" mission, Kindness value +10, Innocence value +10.]
Not bad, not bad, the score was successfully increased!
Sophie stood up with satisfaction, and suddenly stepped on a protruding stone.
She looked down and saw that it was a jade plaque made of chicken blood stone.
It probably fell off him when she was pulling his clothes off.
Sophie bent down and picked up the jade token at her feet.
The surface of this jade plaque was engraved with intricate and delicate patterns, and one could tell from looking at it that it was worth a fortune. However, the reverse side was uneven, and it seemed to be engraved with some words.
She flipped it over casually and saw a huge word "Xiao".
Xiao?
Sophie's eyelids twitched, and she realized belatedly who the tool she had rescued to cheat points was.
Xiao Ming, also known as Cao Ming, holds the script of the Affectionate Male No. 3.
On the surface, he was the adopted son of Minister of War Cao Xuan, but in fact he was a descendant of the Xiao family of the previous dynasty.
In the original plot, Xiao Ming repeatedly saved the heroine from danger, risking his own life. After helping her fake her own death and leave the palace, he stayed by her side, offering her advice and plans for revenge. He was known as her "loyal partner."
However, before this, Sophie did not know the origin of their acquaintance. The only thing she knew was that the heroine saved Xiao Ming's life.
Now it seems that she accidentally saved the person who was originally saved by the heroine?
After all, in the original plot, the person Helian Jin took away that night was Lin Qingyin, who had successfully climbed into his bed and was named a concubine. But the heroine was left stranded in the Lin Mansion because she was ignored...
Recalling the extremely outrageous plot of the previous world, Sophie suddenly felt a headache.
This time she just wanted to quietly get the points and leave, and avoid getting involved in those weird things as much as possible.
After making up her mind, Sophie stuffed the badge in her hand back into Xiao Ming's arms.
She planned to pretend nothing had happened and carry the person back to his original place.
Unexpectedly, the healing technique was so effective that the guy actually opened his eyes the moment she pulled him up!
Their eyes met, and all was silent.
Murderous intent quickly gathered in Xiao Ming's eyes, and he subconsciously raised his hand to touch the jade token on his chest.
After confirming that the jade token was still there, he breathed a sigh of relief, and the murderous intent in his eyes faded.
Sophie watched his every move calmly.
If she hadn't witnessed him fainting from fright, she would have really thought he was a man of steel who was fearless.
After confirming that the surrounding environment was safe, Xiao Ming took the initiative to talk to Sophie.
"Girl, you saved me?"
"No, I'm just passing by."
“…”
At this moment, Xiao Ming had already figured out the whole story and knew that it was the woman in front of him who saved him.
He looked down at the girl, who was just up to his chin.
She had bright eyes, white teeth, delicate features, and thick black hair casually draped over her shoulders, looking like she had just stepped out of the bath.
Only then did he vaguely remember that he had just mistaken her for a ghost.
It's really ridiculous.
No wonder the girl didn't want to admit that she helped herself.
"Miss, I was rude to you earlier. Thank you for saving me today. If you need anything in the future, just take this to Laichunlou and I will definitely help you!"
Xiao Ming took out the object in his arms and put it into Sophie's hand. It was a small and exquisite bone flute.
Sophie had just taken a look and had no time to refuse when Chunhua's voice came from outside the door.
"Miss, the servant has brought you the cakes you requested."
As she spoke, the door in front of her opened.
Xiao Ming jumped out of the window in a flash, and his black figure instantly disappeared into the darkness.
"Miss, something strange seemed to have jumped out of the window just now!"
Chunhua put down the snack in her hand and looked around in surprise.
"Nothing, just a big black rat."
Sophie took a piece of osmanthus cake and ate it with relish.
Big, big black rat?
Xiao Ming, who was on the roof, staggered and almost fell.
"Miss, please don't scare me. I'm most afraid of big black rats!"
"Don't be afraid, I'm here. Come and throw them away!"
"Miss, you are amazing!"
"Isn't that right?"
Listening to the laughter coming from the house, Xiao Ming shook his head helplessly, smiled, and turned to leave.
