Chapter 217 Novice Mission 216
Li Tongxin: "Mom, I'm not a three-year-old child. I can eat well."
Li Tongxin's cheeks turned slightly red due to Qin Shu's question.
Qin Shu: "I'm worried that you won't be used to not having your mother's cooking. I just arrived at your grandmother's house. It may take a few days for me to come back. You just stay with your cousin and Aunt Xu for the next few days, okay?"
Li Tongxin: "Mom, I get it. You don't have to keep saying it several times."
Qin Shu: "My dear, isn't Mom worried that you'll be picky and won't eat anything when you go to other people's houses?"
Li Tongxin: "Mom, can't you think a little better of me?"
Qin Shu: "Okay, anyway, just stay at your cousin's place and ask Aunt Xu for help if you need anything."
Li Tongxin: "I understand."
Qin Shu: "I'm glad to know. If there's nothing else, I'll hang up."
Li Tongxin: "That's it, Mom. Bye." Then she hung up the phone.
Qin Shu's daughter hung up on him before she could even say goodbye.
Qin Shu: "This child."
Li Zhiqiang asked, "Is everything okay with Tongxin?"
Qin Shu: "Nothing, it's just that your daughter's temper is getting worse and worse."
Li Zhiqiang: "It's because of your pampering."
Qin Shu: "What do you mean by I spoiled her? It's obviously you."
Li Zhiqiang: "Okay, okay, if you say it's me, then it's me."
Seeing her husband being so naughty, Qin Shu really wanted to go up and give him a beating. But then she thought about the fact that her husband would have to stay in the hospital for the next few days, so she decided to let it go. She would deal with him when she got home.
Xu Yingying watched Li Tongxin hang up the phone after a few words and asked, "Did Auntie say when she'll be back?"
Li Tongxin: "My mom said it would take a few days for her to come back. She also asked me to stay with cousin Yingying and Aunt Xu."
Seeing Li Tongxin suddenly snuggling into her arms, Xu Yingying could only let her continue to act coquettishly.
"Okay, we will wait until your parents come back, and then hand you back to your aunt safely." Xu Yingying said jokingly.
Li Tongxin, who was being talked about, laughed heartily in Xu Yingying's arms.
Although Li Tongxin is only three years younger than the heroine of the original book, Xu Yingying sometimes really feels that Li Tongxin is just a child who is not mature enough.
Just then, Xiaowu suddenly appeared.
Xiao Wu: "Host, just now, the mission progress has changed again. It's now at 93%."
Xu Yingying was naturally very excited when she heard that the stock price had risen by a few points and that only seven percentage points were left to complete the task. She was secretly happy, but she tried to keep a calm face.
However, if she wasn't in front of Xu Xiaofeng and Li Tongxin, she would have lost control of her emotions and wanted to celebrate wildly. Because at this moment, her heart was filled with joy and anticipation.
Xu Yingying suppressed her excitement and tried to keep her tone calm as she asked, "Xiao Wu, are we about to leave this world?"
Xiao Wu replied: "I will leave directly after completing the task."
Xu Yingying continued to ask: "What will happen to the world after we leave?"
Xiao Wu explained, "According to the system's instructions, this mission world will close after we leave."
Xu Yingying couldn't help but frown and asked doubtfully: "After we leave, will there be nothing here?"
Xiao Wu: "Host, you can indeed understand it this way."
Xu Yingying asked this question in confusion. After all, she had been in this world for almost a month. During this time, she had truly felt the joys and sorrows, the ups and downs of the people here, as if they were real lives, not just characters in a novel.
Xiaowu looked at Xu Yingying and replied calmly, "We're here to untie the subject's obsession." He stated something Xu Yingying already knew, but his words didn't alleviate her inner confusion. Since arriving in this world, besides helping the subject complete their mission, she'd also met many people, sharing countless moments, both big and small, both joy and tears. For Xu Yingying, these memories were too real and precious to simply be erased.
After a moment of silence, Xu Yingying finally couldn't help but ask the question in her heart: "Can we stay here?"
Xu Yingying's words frightened Xiao Wu, and Xiao Wu immediately said: "Host, how could you have such an idea?"
Xu Yingying: "Just asking. Is that not okay?"
Xiaowu: "We are just passers-by here. Although you may feel that you are experiencing something all the time, these are just some data of the system."
After listening to Xiaowu's words, Xu Yingying also realized that her idea was a bit dangerous.
She feels that every person she meets here, even Yuan Xiaoling, has meaning in their existence.
Xiao Wu: "Host, you must understand that you are the tasker. Besides this, there are many other tasks waiting for you. There are also many task subjects who need your help." Xu Yingying listened, and began to wonder why she had agreed to be bound to Xiao Wu in the first place. Was she really suitable for completing the tasks Xiao Wu had mentioned?
Xiao Wu: "Host, is there anything you don't understand?"
Xu Yingying: "It's okay, I know what to do."
Xiao Wu felt comforted to hear that the host finally had no intention of continuing to struggle.
Xiao Wu: "Host, you have to keep working hard. You may be able to complete the task in the next few days. Then we can get points."
Xu Yingying became more and more excited as she listened to Xiaowu's words. She felt as if Xiaowu hadn't told her something.
Xiaowu was happy that he was about to materialize and could eat the delicious food he had seen during this period.
At night, when Xu Yingying and Li Tongxin were lying in bed together.
A voice told Xu Yingying that she should have a good chat with Li Tongxin. Perhaps once the chat was over, the mission would be accomplished.
Now the mission has reached the final moment, and Xu Yingying also knows that to complete the mission, she must change some of Li Tongxin's fixed ideas. As long as they change, she can move forward.
But Xu Yingying remembered that she had made an appointment with Ma Jiajia and a group of people to cook on the weekend.
And Yuan Xiaoling's matter hadn't been resolved yet. Could he really just complete the task and walk away?
After thinking for a long time, Xu Yingying still didn't know whether what she did was right or wrong.
But what Xu Yingying didn't know was that there were some things she couldn't avoid just because she wanted to.
When Li Tongxin took the initiative to talk to her, Xu Yingying knew that she might have to leave here tonight.
