Mother Cheng heaved a sigh of relief when she saw this scene. She was also very relieved that Zhou Miao could come over today.
After all, her daughter-in-law had always despised Cheng Heng. Although Mother Cheng knew that no one would be willing to live with a violent autistic person, she still hoped for a miracle.
When Cheng Heng’s eyes lit up when he saw Zhou Miao, the spark of hope lit up in Mother Cheng’s heart. Initially, because of Zhou Miao’s indifference, the spark in Mother Cheng’s heart had disappeared, but now it seemed that the miracle she had been looking forward to had appeared again.
After the routine examination, the doctor gave some simple instructions, which were still the same precautions issued earlier. Cheng Heng’s illness did not improve or worsen, but if it worsened, there was no way to reverse it.
Zhou Miao sighed. It sounded like there was still hope.
After that, Zhou Miao accompanied Mother Cheng and Cheng Heng back home.
As soon as he got home, Cheng Heng sat next to the coffee table in the living room and began playing Sudoku.
Zhou Miao was not interested in these things related to numbers. Simply looking at these things gave her a headache. However, she thought that since these were things that Cheng Heng liked, she sat down beside him and did the puzzle with him.
Cheng Heng was very good-looking. He was not as handsome as those young movie stars with sharp brows and bright eyes, but he had a kind of simple and innocent good looks. A handful of diamond fragments seemed to be sprinkled inside his slender eyes. His nose and mouth were very delicate, and his jawline was well-defined.
When he lowered his head to fill in the numbers, his fringe fell down to cover his eyes, and his eyelashes drooped down. He pursed his lips in deep thought, exuding a vague sense of youthfulness.
If it weren’t for his autism, he would probably be a man who would make girls’ hearts flutter.
When Zhou Miao thought of how great the pressure of her task was, she began to guide Cheng Heng in a pretentious display. “This place is a three…”
Cheng Heng glanced at Zhou Miao, his eyes somewhat reproachful as if saying, “Stupid. Cheating.”
Zhou Miao awkwardly closed the page showing the Sudoku results she had just found and quietly sat by Cheng Heng’s side.
During this period, she searched for details about Cheng Heng in the original owner’s memory, but there was nothing in the original owner’s memory except for her dislike for Cheng Heng.
What Cheng Heng liked to eat, what he liked to play… everything was a blank. Her memories of Cheng Heng comprised only fragmented and unclear bits and pieces.
Zhou Miao held her forehead. It seemed like making this youngster happy would be a big problem.
While Zhou Miao was in deep thought, Cheng Heng had already completed the Sudoku puzzle and was looking at her.
“You’re done. Can you give me a smile?” Zhou Miao looked at Cheng Heng tentatively and gave him a big smile.
The frame above Cheng Heng’s head still showed the same dazed expression without any change. He said slowly, “Go upstairs…”
Zhou Miao led Cheng Heng upstairs. Cheng Heng started to write and draw on the computer in his study. Zhou Miao decided to go and look for other clues.
As soon as she pushed the door open, she saw Yu Ying coming upstairs.
As soon as the other party saw her, she broke into a warm and beautiful smile immediately.
“Miaomiao, you’re finally back.”
Her smile seemed to be dipped in poison, and the longevity locket on a red thread dandling on her chest looked strange and terrifying. It did not look like the kind of jewelry that people her age would wear.
Zhou Miao searched for information about Yu Ying in her host’s memory.
Yu Ying was the child of the host’s aunt and, therefore, the host’s cousin.
After the host’s parents passed away, the host lived with her aunt and the others. In fact, Yu Ying was now the original owner’s sister-in-law. She married Cheng Heng’s older brother, Cheng Tai.
Yu Ying didn’t look like this before. She was just a little prettier than ordinary people.
However, Yu Ying’s face was very exquisite now, like a female movie star. She had delicate eyes and a petite nose. The beauty mole in the middle of her cheek further ramped up her beauty factor tremendously.
In addition to these, there was also a faint rose scent on her body. It was not like perfume but more like a body fragrance.
Thinking about it carefully, Zhou Miao recalled from her memory that the original owner’s appearance gradually became uglier as Yu Ying’s appearance became nicer.
Zhou Miao looked at her carefully, wondering if Yu Ying’s change was related to the Good Luck Points the system mentioned.
“Miaomiao, what’s wrong? Why are you staring at me?”
Yu Ying chuckled softly. When she smiled, she squinted her eyes until they looked like wisps of silk.
“It’s nothing. I just felt that your face looked fake.” Zhou Miao opened her mouth and said in a probing manner.
Yu Ying was stunned for a moment, but then she recovered and smiled warmly. “Sister, you must be really mad with Brother-in-law. It’s okay. I know it’s not easy for you. I have an event to attend tomorrow. Why don’t you come with me…”
Zhou Miao looked at her coldly. “No, I don’t want to see your hypocritical face.”
Yu Ying heard that Zhou Miao’s tone wasn’t very friendly, so she just smiled. “You must be tired from taking care of Brother-in-law today. Go to bed early.” She left after saying that.
Zhou Miao noticed that when Yu Ying left, she put the longevity locket on her neck into her clothes unnaturally.
[System, system, is there a problem with that longevity locket? Is my luck points related to my appearance?]
Zhou Miao called out to the system hamster in her heart.
[Master, you’re right. That longevity locket locked Master’s luck points to Yu Ying. In fact, all of that belongs to Master, and Good Luck Points are related to appearance.]
[Does that mean I can get my looks back if I get my Good Luck Points back?] Zhou Miao asked.
[Yes, and a smiley face can restore 1% of your Good Luck Points and 1% of your appearance. Moreover, these Good Luck Points originally belonged to you, so Yu Ying won’t be able to snatch them away again.]
Zhou Miao thought for a moment. The most important thing now was to get her Good Luck Points back. Not only did she have to keep herself alive, but she also had to get back her appearance.
Pushing open the bedroom door, Zhou Miao saw that Cheng Heng had already changed into red plaid pajamas. He was sitting on the edge of the bed holding a bear plush toy, looking at the other side in a daze, and the expression on his head was a big crying face.
Zhou Miao followed his gaze. There was a small bed on the other side of the bedroom, and there was a neatly folded blue silk nightdress on the bed.
It seemed that the original owner had not slept with Cheng Heng on the same bed previously.
So Cheng Heng was angry now that she didn’t bring him to bed?
Zhou Miao took a deep breath and sat beside Cheng Heng. Cheng Heng turned his head to look at her.
Zhou Miao held her breath nervously as she raised her head to look at the emoji box above Cheng Heng’s head.
