Host, You’re Too Much!! (2)
The jade pendant was already on Xiaoman ever since she was little. Jiang Yue said that she had worn it ever since she was born, and it must never be thrown away. That was why no matter how hard their life had gotten, Jiang Xiumei never once thought about selling it.
But tonight… For some reason, she decided to put it away.
–
Jiang Xiaoman slept well and even had a very magical dream.
She was still singing that song in her dream.
“What is Father’s father called? Father’s father is called Grandpa (Yeye).”
……
What is Mother’s mother called? Mother’s mother is called Grandma (Laolao).
Is called Grandma (Laolao)1!!!
She finally made sense of this complicated family relationship! She could finally sing it now!!!
The following day was the weekend. She didn’t need to go to kindergarten, so she could sleep longer. Jiang Xiaoman opened her eyes in a daze, then continued lying down and wanted to continue sleeping.
But the system wouldn’t let that happen!
The system did not need to sleep, which meant it stayed up all night suffering from the loss of the critical main mission item.
Host, you finally woke up!!!
“Host, it’s time to get up.” The system’s tone was anxious. “A sleepy kid is not a good kid.”
Jiang Xiaoman grunted, turned over, and continued to sleep.
The system almost cried.
It was really making the whole system-kind lose face. It couldn’t even handle one little brat!
If it had known things would be like this, it would’ve acted a bit fierce when it was first bound to its host and scared her a little. It won’t be like how it was now, lacking any kind of dignity!
Ah ah ah, no no no, system. You have to show the dignity of an elder!
“Host, This System is warning you. If you still don’t get up, I’m going to spank you!”
Xiaoman finally woke up after hearing this.
She immediately sat up, her reaction bigger than the system’s. But the focus of her attention was on another part of the system’s words…
“Brother System, do you have hands now?”
“…” It was really going to get so angry it would materialize!
Host, do you act so horribly to others?
Are you doing this on purpose?
She may be a villainess, but why is her knife pointed to her own people?! The system was very angry.
The system ignored her words and continued, “Host, there’s something very important I’m going to have you do today. Listen well. Our main mission item has been lost. You have to get it back.”
Jiang Xiaoman was confused. She grabbed her hair, making her messy hair even messier.
“What main mission item?”
“!!!”
Have you forgotten what the main mission item is?!
What is in your head nowadays?!
The system forced itself to be patient and said, “It’s the crescent-shaped jade pendant, remember? Last night after you fell asleep, your Grandma took it away. We have to find the jade pendant.”
So it turned out to be that thing, Jiang Xiaoman finally understood.
She played with her fingers and said in a very low voice, “If Grandma took it, then just let her have it. I don’t like wearing it…”
She had actually wanted to say that for a long time.
The system always had her wear it on her body. Did it know how painful it was to wear such a cold thing on her on such a cold day?!
It was really freezing!
Jiang Xiaoman didn’t like it. She only liked her Grandma’s warm hands.
“No, you must get it back.” The system couldn’t bear it anymore. “That’s my lifeblood!”
Jiang Xiaoman blinked, “What is a lifeblood?”
“Lifeblood is… lifeblood is lifeblood! It’s my life! It’s my everything! I can’t live without it!” The system broke down. “Host, please, I beg you?”
“Wow—” Jiang Xiaoman was shocked and asked again. “Brother System, now you can even die?”
“……!!!”
Host, you’re doing this on purpose, right? Right?!
Yes, it did not need to eat, sleep, or breathe. It did not need anything. It did not have any physical form, and it could not die!
But its life was almost over now!
If Jiang Xiumei ruthlessly destroyed the jade pendant, it really would disappear!
