Chapter 4 Good feelings always come suddenly

In the crowded and lively snack street, Chi Shen expressionlessly slapped the fish-killing knife on the table, making a crisp sound.

The bald man helped the middle-aged woman up, and when he looked up, he saw three or five customers lined up at the stall, but Chi Shen remained motionless, and immediately yelled, "Chi Shen, what the hell are you doing standing there? You don't know if your mother fell. Help, someone who buys fish doesn't know how to say hello, isn't it nerve-wracking again?!"

Your mother... She tripped just now was Chi Shen's mother? Qiao Zhen Zhen widened her eyes in shock, before she could react, she saw Chi Shen grabbing two black plastic bags and walking towards him expressionlessly.

Qiao Zhenzhen just dropped her own mother, when she saw him coming, she felt guilty: "That..."

As soon as he said two words, Chi Shen came to her and squatted down on one knee in front of her.

... what is he doing? Kneel down? Qiao Zhen Zhen was so frightened that she forgot to breathe.

The next second, his hand suddenly grabbed her slender ankle.

In the evening of September, even the air was hot and dry, but the temperature in his palm was icy cold. The chill pierced through the dull air and wrapped her entire ankle. On the back of her pale and bloodless hand, a touch of pink was especially dazzling.

"Lift your feet."

The boy's hoarse voice fell into her ears after ten years. Qiao Zhen Zhen lowered her head in a daze, and found that he was holding the opened bag in his other hand, waiting beside the ankle he was holding.

"The pool is deep! The pool is deep!"

The bald man was still shouting, seeing that the guests were impatiently waiting, but Chi Shen didn't even turn his head back and focused on holding the bag. He was about to rush over to teach him a lesson, but was stopped by the middle-aged woman.

"Where are you going, didn't you see the cheating girl?" The middle-aged woman snorted and looked at Qiao Zhenzhen from head to toe, when she saw the bracelet on her wrist, there was a trace of greed in her eyes, "This is fat. fish."

The bald man was stunned for a while, after seeing Qiao Zhen Zhen's clothes, he rubbed his hands and laughed.

Qiao Zhen Zhen was still in a daze, until Chi Shen's grip on her increased, she suddenly came back to her senses, followed his strength and stepped into the plastic bag. Chi Shen lowered her eyes, wrapped her shoes tightly, tied them neatly into a slipknot, and opened the second bag.

This time, without waiting for Chi Shen to speak, Qiao Zhen Zhen quickly stretched out her other foot, because standing on one foot was a little unsteady, so she subconsciously supported his shoulder.

Chi Shen's back instantly stiffened, and the fingers holding the bag also trembled slightly, Qiao Zhen Zhen stretched her feet in for a long time, but she didn't see his next move, so she could not help calling him curiously: "Chi Shen?"

Chi Shen's eyelashes moved slightly, and after a while, he tied the bag tightly, but this time his fingers were unstable and the tie became a dead knot.

Qiao Zhen Zhen waited quietly, and then thanked him after he stood up: "Thank you."

Chi Shen looked at her steadily, his black and white eyes were deep and cold, and his gloomy temperament was like a peeping poisonous snake.

Qiao Zhen Zhen swallowed her saliva and tried to explain why she appeared here, but after thinking about it for a long time, she couldn't think of a plausible reason.

Before leaving Qiao's house, living in a big house and going in and out of big shopping malls, life is like a beautifully packaged and fake gift box, completely different from the oily streets. It seems that she shouldn't be here, and shouldn't be contaminated with worldliness and cowardice.

"I came with you." Having no excuse, Qiao Zhen Zhen decided to tell the truth.

Chi Shen took a step back.

Qiao Zhen Zhen was helpless: "I scared you again."

Chi Shen was silent, her face was clearly reflected in her black pupils.

Qiao Zhen Zhen sighed and was about to explain again when she heard him speak in a hoarse voice: "Go."

Qiao Zhen Zhen paused for a while, and after seeing the flash of rejection in his eyes, she nodded obediently, turned around alone with her schoolbag on her back, and walked slowly towards the way she came.

After walking for a while, she couldn't help but turn her head, and caught the eyes of Chi Shen. Chi Shen didn't seem to expect that she would turn back, her eyes moved slightly when they looked at each other, but she didn't avoid her eyes.

"I'm leaving! Go back!" Qiao Zhenzhen smiled and beckoned, then she turned her head and left.

Chi Shen looked at her smiling eyes, her thin lips pursed again, and her face became dark and unclear. He watched Qiao Zhen Zhen's back disappear gradually, and for a long time he stood still like a sculpture.

"Why are you still standing stupidly? Come and help!" The bald head scolded.

Chi Shen lowered his eyes, turned around and went back to the chopping board to continue his work.

The bald head looked at his indifferent appearance, and kicked the bucket next to him angrily: "You keep a blank face all day long, like who owes you eight million, if it weren't for me and your mother, you would have starved to death. You know what, you white-eyed wolf!"

"Okay, don't you just kill two less fish, don't scold people at every turn," the middle-aged woman said with a smile on her melon seeds, reversing her previous meanness, "finding a rich daughter-in-law is much more important than selling fish, it's better She's an only child, and the money is ours when she gets married."

"Come on, you are really stupid for being a rich man. It's okay to play. If you really want to get married, your parents will be the first to disagree."

"What's the matter, as long as he is pregnant, he has to agree if he doesn't agree."

The more you talk to me, the more lively the two of you are talking. Chi Shen's expression is cold, as if he didn't hear anything.

"Oh, what's the matter with you, you've already chopped it into minced meat!" The guest complained immediately when he saw the blood on the chopping board, "I don't want you to chop like this."

Chi Shen stopped the knife and looked at the other side expressionlessly, blood splashed on his pale face, and the colors of white and red were distinct. The guest swallowed: "Ma, please wrap it up for me."

Chi Shen was silent for a long time, scraped the fish on the chopping board into the trash can, and chose another one for him.

Before you know it, night falls and the lights are on.

When Qiao Zhen Zhen arrived home, it was already completely dark, and she bumped into her mother as soon as she entered the door.

Suddenly seeing my mother who was ten years younger, her eyes were sore, and her heart that had been hanging all day came down to the ground: "Mom."

"Where have you gone! If you don't answer the phone or text messages, are you trying to kill me?" Qin Jing breathed a sigh of relief when she saw her, but frowned tightly.

Qiao Zhen Zhen paused for a while, then took out her phone and looked at it: "It's turned off, I didn't receive it."

Qin Jing gave her a sideways glance and changed the high heels on her feet while talking about her.

Qiao Zhen Zhen was lying on the shoe cabinet and looked at her with a smile. Qin Jing, who is in her early 40s, looks like she is in her thirties. Even her hair is exquisite. Even when she goes out to find a girl, she has to put on lipstick and wear high heels.

Nearly 20 years of life as a noblewoman made her look not too flamboyant, but like most housewives of this age, she likes to nag and complain all day long and find trouble with her husband and children. In the past, Qiao Zhenzhen was very annoying, and she talked back and quarreled with her every day.

after marriage

Qin Jing, who was completely taciturn, realized how much she missed her in the past.

"What are you putting on your feet? Plastic bags! How dare you enter the door if you are dirty, throw them out for me. The ground that my aunt just dragged was all trampled and dirty by you. You really don't know how to be considerate..." As soon as Qin Jing raised her head, she met Qiao Zhenzhen's smiling eyes, and the rest of the complaints instantly choked in her throat.

"Mom, I miss you so much." Qiao Zhenzhen said, she opened her arms and suddenly hugged him. Once again, I have to protect her like this, and prevent her from withering like a rose from the soil like a previous life.

Qin Jing was stunned for a while, but still patted her on the back, and after she let go, she asked worriedly, "Did you get bullied at school?"

"No, I'm fine." Qiao Zhen Zhen replied.

Qin Jing frowned: "Then you are..."

Qiao Zhen Zhen looked at her delicate brows with amazement.

Qin Jing couldn't hold back, and laughed along with it, while laughing and blaming: "Stupid or not, you."

"Mom, I asked the driver to bring you milk tea, did you drink it?" Qin Jing likes sweets, especially milk tea and egg tarts.

Qin Jing nodded: "don't bring it in the future, it will be cold when you bring it back."

"It's cold?" Qiao Zhen Zhen sneered when she heard the words.

When she left, Zhao Lianqiao was still in school, so it seemed easy to guess where the driver went.

"Is there any problem?" Qin Jing asked.

Qiao Zhen Zhen returned to her senses: "Ah, no, Mom, I want to tell you something."

"What's the matter?" The mother and daughter hadn't spoken so calmly for a long time, Qin Jing asked immediately after hearing the words.

Qiao Zhenzhen: "Can you change the driver for me?"

"Okay." Qin Jing nodded.

Qiao Zhen Zhen paused: "Don't ask why?"

"It's just a change of driver, what's there to ask," Qin Jing gave her a sideways look, "you're not someone who makes trouble out of nowhere. Since he proposed to change him, he must have made you unhappy."

"Thank you mom." Qiao Zhen Zhen was very happy.

She laughed a lot today, and Qin Jing was also in a good mood. The mother and daughter had a peaceful meal. Qiao Zhenzhen yawned and went back to the bedroom. After washing up, she lay on the bed and recalled everything she experienced after her rebirth today.

After a long while, she sighed: "Are those two really Chi Shen's parents? Why do they look nothing like Chi Shen?"

"Hereditary is a metaphysics, Chi Shen may be lucky." Xiao Ba replied in his mind.

Qiao Zhenzhen pursed her lips: "No matter the metaphysics, there are always similarities, right? Are you sure that Chi Shen is their biological son?"

"The plot that is not in the original text, Xiaoba can't be sure." Xiaoba replied.

"Actually, malicious speculation is not very good, but they are too fierce towards Chi Shen, which is not like their attitude towards their only son." Qiao Zhenzhen muttered.

Xiao Ba: "Not everyone can be a qualified parent."

"Yes," Qiao Zhenzhen turned over and asked another question, "By the way, my mother was so happy just now, why didn't the favorability value appear?"

"People who are related to the host by blood will have no good feelings, and they will be punished.

system

Automatic filtering. ' Xiaoba replied.

Qiao Zhen Zhen paused for a while: "Why didn't you tell me before, didn't you lie to me?"

"...Xiao Ba dare not!" The electronic voice immediately persuaded.

Qiao Zhen Zhen was amused by its tone, and after laughing, she still didn't forget to threaten her face: "What else are you hiding from me, you'd better say it once, and patch me next time, I won't admit it."

"It's nothing else," Xiaoba paused after speaking, and then added, "Oh, about the function of the pause time, the next time you pause, you need to add 5 points every 30 seconds. For example, you pause for 30 seconds this time. It took 10 points of favor, the next pause of thirty seconds will be 15 points, the pause of one minute will be thirty points, and so on.”

"Why do you only talk about such an important matter now!" Qiao Zhen Zhen sat up abruptly.

Little Eight is guilty: "Because the host didn't ask."

"Is there anything else?!" Qiao Zhen Zhen frowned.

Xiaoba's electronic sound is weak: "The function of increasing the lifespan also needs to change the value every ten years. For example, in the first ten years, 10 points of favorability can be used for one month of lifespan, and in the second ten years, it is necessary to 20 favorability points can be exchanged for a month of life..."

Qiao Zhen Zhen's eyes darkened when she heard it: "If I want him to live to be ninety years old, every month for the last ten years must be exchanged for 70 favorability points?"

"……Um."

"Why don't you grab it!" Qiao Zhen Zhen was angry.

"The favorability value required by other functions is constant." Xiao Ba tried to save.

Qiao Zhen Zhen sneered, sitting alone and sulking.

Ten minutes later, she calmed down: "The last 10 good impressions have just been used up, and I have to find a way to collect them as soon as possible."

I used to think that the pause time function was tasteless, but after saving Chi Shen today, she has changed her mind. Favorability points are used for the pause time, and favorability points are also used for Chi Shen's life. She must accumulate them as soon as possible.

"Other people's favor collection is too slow, why don't you focus on Chi Shen!" Xiao Ba became lively again. After following Qiao Zhenzhen for a day, it seems that she has found the code of wealth.

Qiao Zhen Zhen also thought so, holding her cheeks and thinking: "But his goodwill is too elusive, I can get it with every word I said before. I followed him home today, and I haven't seen any of it."

"Humans are the most complex creatures, and it's normal to be elusive. You can get 10 favorability points by speaking a word, which can only be considered luck." Xiao Ba comforted.

The voice did not fall, and the prompt sounded——

[Favorability +20, existing 20 points]

Little Eight: "..."

Qiao Zhen Zhen was silent for a moment, then asked seriously: "...is this also luck?"

Xiao Ba was speechless for a long time: "According to the system analysis, it was Chi Shen. When the good impression appeared... he was staring at his hand."

Qiao Zhenzhen: "?"

In the dark night, the windowless and air-conditioned room was hot and humid, and a small desk lamp was lit on the desk built with two boards.

The boy under the lamp was silent, staring at his right hand quietly. The fingers rubbed unconsciously, and the remaining warmth had disappeared long ago, but the soft touch always stayed.
