At the end of the banquet, the small spaceships and luxury cars parked outside also left the Marshal's Mansion one after another, and the entire Marshal's Mansion has returned to peace. If the entire Marshal's Mansion was greatly appreciated by the guests, it would be the plants in the yard. Even though it is winter now, the roses in the yard are still blooming warmly after getting the advanced equipment from the plant breeding center that can adjust the temperature and simulate the sun.

It was very late. After the meal, Lin Ning thought that Mr. Li would stay at the Marshal's Mansion. Unexpectedly, the old man only solemnly told them that they are now engaged, and they must cherish and support each other in the future. long-lived mansion.

The servants and robots in the hall are cleaning up lightly, and the housekeeper Chang is counting the gifts he received today. Lin Ning looked at the room full of gifts, thinking that when the wedding was actually held, was afraid that this gift would not be accepted.

Thinking of this, seeing that he had nothing to do with him, he yawned lightly and told Uncle Chang that he was going to rest first.

I walked into Li Chengyan's room on the second floor... uh, no, this is actually the shared bedroom of the two of them. However, because there is no official marriage, this place has never been decorated like the wedding room of a real newlyweds. But their wedding was scheduled for two months later, so it didn't really make any difference.

The bedroom door opened automatically after recognizing him. After Lin Ning entered, she lay down on the sofa tiredly. He turned on the smart housekeeper and let the bathtub automatically prepare hot water for a bath. After adjusting the temperature, he took off his tie and took off his coat, staring at the ceiling in a daze.

After finishing the task, the system has been in this world for a long time. Lin Ning doesn't know how long the system can stay in a world, but judging from the fact that the system has been in an on-hook state for a long time and has insufficient energy recently, the system may not be here for a long time. In the past, the system was always on 24 hours a day, but recently, it seems that have been suffering from narcolepsy all day long.

Probably on the side of the control system, a kind of control over the system, Lin Ning vaguely felt that this was a way to restrict a system from staying in a certain world for a long time.

Feeling agitated, Lin Ning whispered in her heart: [System, are you awake? 】

There was no movement, everything was quiet. Lin Ning sighed, and closed her eyes in disappointment.

[Host...] The system's voice sounded abruptly, intermittently and faintly.

Lin Ning suddenly opened his eyes, and there seemed to be stars twinkling in his eyes. Now, he didn't have the heart to quarrel with the system, and quickly asked: [Why did you sleep for so long this time, is there something wrong? 】

The system's voice is a little sad, it sounds wronged, it really looks like a human: [I was ordered...Leave tonight...I am, I am here to say goodbye to the host...]

Lin Ning's eyes widened in surprise. Although he had a vague premonition that this day was coming, he couldn't help but feel heartache when it really happened. After struggling for a long time, he bit his lip to suppress the sourness in his heart, and comforted softly: [It's okay, don't be afraid, you have already brought several hosts, why can't you stand the parting? Fortunately, it's just life and separation, not death. Get ready to leave soon, I will remember to miss you. 】

The system choked and asked: [Will you really not forget me? 】

Lin Ning raised her eyebrows and laughed softly: [Bringing me from one world to another world, how can you forget such an exciting experience? 】

[...] The system is silent.

Lin Ning saw that something was wrong with the system, and she was a little puzzled.

[Actually...] The system hesitated, and when the words came to their mouths, they couldn't come out.

Lin Ning listened anxiously and asked: [What is it? 】

The system shook his head, changed the subject, and said: [It's nothing, I just want to say that the food you make is good, although as a system I can't eat it, but I still like it. 】

What it didn't tell Lin Ning was that after the host completed the task, the system had to leave the world immediately, and then the world consciousness would erase the memory of the host, and there would no longer be any memory about the system. The reason why it stayed here for so long is to make Lin Ning not forget it so quickly.

Lin Ning frowned, subconsciously feeling that this was not what the system wanted to say. Just seeing that the system insisted not to say anything, he couldn't keep asking.

[Well, then I'm leaving...] The last voice of the system was so weak that it was almost inaudible. It was the first time that it felt that it was so close to humans, but it was about to leave so soon, and it was very reluctant in its heart.

Lin Ning couldn't hear the weak voice of the system. Although the system might just be a bunch of data, he felt uncomfortable when he heard it. He lightly covered his eyes and bid farewell to the system as calmly as possible: [Well, good luck. 】

This time his voice fell, but there was no reply for a long time.

【system? 】

【Are you still there... the system? 】

...

The spacious bedroom was surprisingly quiet, but Lin Ning suddenly hoped that the soundproofing effect of this bedroom was not good, so that he could still hear the sound of the servants cleaning up outside, so that he would not be overwhelmed by the overwhelming loneliness at this moment. engulf.

My heart is depressed, and even the tip of my nose is sour.

After a moment of silence, Lin Ning held her forehead with trembling hands, her eyes were finally red, he closed his eyes deeply, and two lines of clear tears fell suddenly.

[... I wish you to meet a better host than me in the next world. 】

When Li Chengyan returned to the bedroom, he did not see Lin Ning. The bathroom light was on, but there was no movement inside. He frowned, listened outside, and knocked on the door.

No one in the bathroom responded.

Li Chengyan asked, "Ling Ning?"

There was still no sound, Li Chengyan was worried, and quickly turned the door lock to open the bathroom door.

At this moment, the thin and beautiful young man's clothes were half torn, sleeping quietly in the bathtub, his head was slightly tilted, his fine black hair was a little messy, and there were traces of crying on his face. He was just lying in the bathtub, looking as if he had fallen asleep while undressing.

Li Chengyan's heart tightened, and he flew over and hugged Lin Ning's waist, shaking it slightly, realizing that Lin Ning was only asleep, and then he let go of his heart. Then he frowned and looked at Lin Ning's face, his eyes were gently closed, a little red and swollen, the tip of his nose and the end of his eyes were powdery, especially his eyelashes were stained with fine teardrops, as if he couldn't sleep well in his dream.

Lemony what happened? Li Chengyan was deeply remorseful, his nails almost pinched into his palm. The two of them have been getting along every day and night recently, and he didn't know that something deeply troubled him.

He stretched out his fingers and stroked the tears from the corners of Lin Ning's eyes. Pulling over a towel, he was about to wipe Lin Ning's body and carried him to the bed.

The young man in his arms seemed to feel the movement, and his tears flowed even more recklessly. He grabbed Li Chengyan's arm and whispered softly, "Don't go, please..."

Li Chengyan's hand paused: "..."

The young man in his arms was silent even when he cried. He dropped a few drops of golden beans. He was so uncomfortable that he woke up crying. He rubbed his eyes at a loss. .

Li Chengyan hugged Lin Ning and gently kissed the tears from his eyes. His voice was hoarse and dark, with faint worry and self-blame: "Ling Ning...why are you crying?"

Lin Ning looked around blankly, stunned.

Yes, why is he crying?

Why seems to have forgotten something very important, but what is it? He couldn't think of it at all, and he had been sullen in the bottom of his heart, uncomfortable, sour and astringent.

He raised his head and saw Li Chengyan's worried and anxious appearance, but he didn't know what to answer. He muttered to himself, "I don't know either, I seem to have forgotten something. It's so uncomfortable. Has anyone left?"

Li Chengyan frowned deeply. Could it be that... Ning Ning was referring to Major General Lin Rou?

Lin Ning struggled to stand up, but because her clothes wet the ground, she almost slipped to the ground. Li Chengyan caught Lin Ning subconsciously, and Lin Ning also subconsciously fell into Li Chengyan's arms.

Li Chengyan clasped Lin Ning's back tightly with one hand, and pressed Lin Ning's head with the other, pressing the person into the neck socket, his eyes were cold and gentle. This embrace was too warm, and it instantly eased Lin Ning's lost heart. Lin Ning blinked, realizing that today was his engagement night with Li Chengyan.

He hugged Li Chengyan tightly, as if he was holding onto the last warm attachment in his life.

"Chengyan, what if one day... I forget you?" Lin Ning's head was in a mess, and these words blurted out subconsciously, with a very aggrieved tone.

Li Chengyan was stunned for a moment, then a faint smile appeared on the corner of his lips, and whispered in Lin Ning's ear: "Then I will have to become Xizai to tempt you again."

Lin Ning smiled, and her mood recovered a little: "Then don't give up on me, if you don't turn into a cub to tempt me, I'm afraid I'll lose my memory, and I'll pick up other small animals and go home, it's like coming The world is meaningless..."

come to this world?

Li Chengyan secretly wrote down this sentence. Although he still had a lot of doubts in his heart, Ning Ning obviously had something on his mind and seemed to be in a bad mood. He didn't plan to ask questions now.

"I will never give up on you, and you are not allowed to pick up other small animals." Li Chengyan has never had any experience in coaxing people, but he has always been very concerned and patient with Lin Ning, he said, "Go to the shower first. Sleep or you will get sick."

Lin Ning nodded and began to take off her clothes obediently. His clothes were soaked with water, and the naked, white shirt was now close to his body, revealing a pale pink skin. The slender waist is now unobstructed, and at the moment when the clothes are taken off, the delicate collarbone and the white upper body all fall into Li Chengyan's eyes.

Li Chengyan turned his head, consciously not being too rude, Ning Ning was still sad, he shouldn't have wrong thoughts. But the scene in front of him was too lively, colourful, and fragrant, and it took him a lot of restraint to barely maintain a sense of decency.

When Lin Ning heard the movement behind her, she turned around and saw that Li Chengyan was still there, so she tilted her head and asked softly, "Do you want to wash too?"

It's a bit like an invitation, Lin Ning thought in a daze.

Anything left will get out of control, Li Chengyan shook his head, opened the door and walked out quickly, then closed the bathroom door with force. Soon, his voice came from outside, quiet and solemn, with a bit of hoarseness: "I'll wait for you in the bedroom, call me if you have something."

Lin Ning: "...Pfft."

He was amused by Li Chengyan's reaction, and finally a smile appeared on his face.

Thinking of the slight change in his mood, he felt a lot more relaxed. Although I don't know why I feel uncomfortable, isn't tonight his engagement night with Li Chengyan? He should be happy.

His feet gently stepped into the bathtub, and the next moment he was submerged in the water, and the warm and slightly scalding water instantly warmed his whole body.
