Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

For the next few days, Xiao Ying visited Qiao Zihao every day and found that he just seemed to have fallen asleep. There was nothing unusual about him, but he could not wake up.

Qiao Na specially came to look for her and said, “Xiao Ying, I need to go out for a while. I want you to take care of Zihao.”

Her expression was a little strange, but Xiao Ying didn’t ask further and agreed.

This made Qiao Na heave a sigh of relief. She said, “When Zihao was young, he accidentally hit his head because of my negligence and fell unconscious for the first time. This is all my fault. I’ve always wanted to make it up to him, but I never had the chance. But I can tell that he was very different when he was with you.”

This was the first time Xiao Ying had seen this carefree woman with reddened eyes and a sorrowful expression. She did not know how to comfort her and could only quietly listen to her narration.

Qiao Na wiped her tears and returned to her previous self. She smiled and said, “With you around, I can go and chase after men without feeling guilty.”

Xiao Ying was shocked. She had not expected her to be talking about this.

Qiao Na could tell that she was shocked, so she added with a smile, “Zihao has always wanted a father, but I’ve always been worried about him, so—”

Xiao Ying smiled and nodded. “Don’t worry and leave Zihao to me. I wish you success in getting him.”

Qiao Na’s eyes were filled with confidence. “Naturally.”

Even after Qiao Na had been gone for a long time, Xiao Ying was still guessing what kind of man could subdue her.

When they left the school at night, Xiao Ying saw Cheng Yang standing at the door. She wondered if he had received the letter.

After the amulet went dormant due to insufficient energy, Xiao Ying got someone to send a letter to Cheng Yang, explaining the amulet’s origin and purpose.

Cheng Yang took a few steps closer and a voice flashed through Xiao Ying’s mind. “Destined energy source has been discovered. Absorbing energy…”

Xiao Ying ignored him. She had done what needed to be done. She took a few steps forward, hugged his neck, and kissed him.

The amulet screamed in her mind. “Master, how could you do this?”

Xiao Ying replied indifferently, “Won’t your absorption speed be faster this way?”

The amulet fell silent for a moment, but this time, it was not so easy to fool. He said, “The destined energy source’s gloominess value has decreased by a lot this time. What have you done, Master? Once the destined energy source’s gloominess value is lower than 30, the Heavenly Dao will unleash its punishment.”

Gloominess Value?

Xiao Ying, who had never heard of such a judgment before, pushed Cheng Yang away instantly, her eyes filled with shock.

Cheng Yang didn’t understand, but he knew that she had something on her, so he didn’t ask.

Xiao Ying looked at Cheng Yang and said coldly, “Get lost. Don’t ever come looking for me again.”

If anyone saw this scene, they would think that Xiao Ying was a player. First, she forced a kiss on him and then told him to get lost.

Cheng Yang frowned and took a few steps back obediently.

The amulet started to shout again. “You already pushed him away, why didn’t Cheng Yang’s gloominess value increase?”

Xiao Ying also frowned. The gloominess value was difficult to control. She said, “Cheng Yang, don’t tell me you have masochistic tendencies? I’ve already treated you like this, but you’re not angry. Why are you still looking for me?”

Cheng Yang quickly got the main point of her words. So he should be angry now?

The amulet shouted the next second, “The gloominess value has increased. It’s now 60.”

Xiao Ying heaved a sigh of relief. She looked up and felt that Cheng Yang really seemed to be angry.

Cheng Yang looked at Xiao Ying solemnly, but the anger was not directed at her, it was at the thing in her body. He felt extremely annoyed.

Xiao Ying could only let Cheng Yang go back first and wait for the amulet to run out of energy before sharing the information with him.

Cheng Yang understood Xiao Ying’s difficulty and naturally wouldn’t pester her..
