After taking a really "battle-like" shower, Shen Jing collapsed onto the table, completely exhausted.
Gu Yan tapped the table casually.
She stared at his slender fingertips, her mind in turmoil.
Trying to remain rational and think about what just happened, I was again tempted by that hand.
The scene was too stimulating, and her face slowly turned bright red.
"What are you thinking about?"
Gu Yan clasped his hands together, rested his chin on the back of his hands, and leaned over to look at Shen Jing.
Shen Jing's sleepiness had long been washed away by the water.
And just as he asked, she glared at him and said, "Healing, you have superpowers?"
Gu Yan narrowed his eyes slightly. He had deliberately said it for her to hear, and since she had guessed it, that was for the best. He tilted his head and looked at Shen Jing, "Guess, have those people outside also awakened their superpowers?"
What happened?
Is there some information she missed?
Shen Jing slowly recalled the events and suddenly remembered the mission she hadn't participated in.
"apple?"
"Um."
Could it be that apples can awaken superpowers? What about memories?
Recalling everyone's reactions just now, Shen Jing couldn't figure it out for a moment. If they all remembered the memories from the game, they should hate her, right? Anyone who isn't stupid could guess the changes between the two worlds.
Or are they deliberately not saying it?
Thinking of these possibilities, the lazy Shen Jing couldn't help but slowly sit up.
Gu Yan reached out and pinched her baby face. "At that time, a voice rang out, saying that eating the apple would bring a surprise."
So that's how it is. Shen Jing forcefully slapped his hand away.
She rubbed her flushed cheeks and continued, "Is there anything else?"
Gu Yan shook his head.
But after a moment, he smiled sinisterly and said, "I guess the characters in the game will awaken superpowers. They just need to eat an apple, but you... won't have any mission changes."
There is a clear boundary between you and me.
Just a moment ago we were inseparable, but now I only feel cold.
Shen Jing touched the goosebumps on her arm.
"Then we'll have to eat the apple first... I remember, Mu Tong and Xie Zhizhou ate it..."
On the other side...
A glass of water was placed in front of Yang Mutong.
Unlike usual, she didn't cling to Yang Muyi.
Zhang Xiaonan also noticed that something was wrong with her. "Mu Tong, what are you doing here?"
There are two bedrooms, one for each of the two sisters.
There was a small living room outside, where Zhang Xiaonan had just been playing shadow games with two children. But he hadn't seen Yang Mutong. He hugged her from behind, laughing, and said, "I thought you'd secretly mutated in your room!"
"Then how did you dare to come in?" Yang Mutong asked in a low voice.
"If you mutate, I think it would be better if you bit me first, haha."
Yang Mutong relaxed slightly, laughing and scolding, "You're such a love-struck fool."
"So what?"
Zhang Xiaonan muttered a couple of things, then noticed the water glass in front of her. "Huh? Why is there a glass of water here?"
Just thinking about it makes me thirsty; moving supplies doesn't mean you can move too much water.
But you need water every minute when you're out and about.
He was almost dying of thirst, but he endured it for the sake of his two children.
"Don't drink it." Yang Muyi snatched the water glass away.
Zhang Xiaonan was stunned.
But then she remembered that she might be thirsty, and immediately said with concern, "You've been driving all day, drink some water. Wipe yourself down and get some rest. My brother-in-law and I were just discussing it, and we think we'll have a tough battle tomorrow!"
What the hell is my brother-in-law?
Upon hearing Zhang Xiaonan's words, Yang Mutong's face immediately darkened.
She remembered Yang Muyi's betrayal of her within the Masked Organization.
And it also harmed Shen Jing...
But Ah Jing! She actually...
Yang Mutong, usually carefree and easygoing, now pieced together all the details. Setting aside all the impossibilities, the only truth was what she had imagined: that damn game was actually her former world!
How ridiculous, she had never considered this possibility.
When I registered an account with Zhang Xiaonan before.
She even joked with Shen Jing that their game team might have referenced their names.
Unexpectedly, it turned out to be more than just a matter of sharing the same name.
Seeing that she seemed a bit off, Zhang Xiaonan quickly asked, "Could it be that you felt unwell after eating an apple? Sigh, we need to ask Shen Jing if she has any medicine. I just heard Aunt Chen say that Xie Zhizhou seems to have a fever as well."
"He has a fever?" Yang Mutong suddenly grabbed Zhang Xiaonan's arm.
“Yes.” Zhang Xiaonan was puzzled. “Because she didn’t want to bother Gu Yan and Shen Jing, she asked us for fever reducers first. Luckily, my sister always carries fever reducers with her when she goes out because of the children in her family.”
"She's not the older sister."
"Hmm? She's still angry, but she'll eventually acknowledge you as her sister."
Yang Mutong looked at Zhang Xiaonan's simple-minded appearance and remained silent for a long time.
He then asked in a low voice, "Is Xie Zhizhou's condition serious?"
"It shouldn't be serious, just a low-grade fever. I heard it was from eating an apple." He recalled picking the apples and said thoughtfully, "After completing the mission, they said there would be a surprise if we ate the apple. I hope it wasn't a shock."
“It’s not just a fright…” Yang Mutong took a sip of water from her glass.
Zhang Xiaonan saw it under the moonlight and swallowed hard.
He always thought the water in her cup tasted especially good.
He tilted his head back and swallowed the water. Yang Muyi looked down at his dazed expression and suddenly laughed: "There's more. Do you dare to drink it?"
