Chapter 28 It's Yours From Now On
"What's wrong?" Ji Sisi thought to herself that she couldn't wear this stinky man's wet clothes. Now she must be itching all over, right?
Ji Shengsheng looked anxious. She turned to look at the muddy path behind her and cried, "The jade pendant my mother gave me is lost."
"What kind of jade pendant?" Ji Sisi looked at the road they came from. Let alone a jade pendant, even if gold fell in there it would be difficult to find, right?
"My mother gave it to me. I've been wearing it for many years."
[It's the jade pendant you snatched back out of jealousy a few days later. This can be considered a small plot point.]
Ji Shengsheng's voice and the system's voice sounded at the same time. The more important this jade pendant is to the heroine now, the more disgusted the audience will be when she snatches it away. Anyway, it is just what the plot requires.
"Sisi, you go back first. I'll go back to look for it." As Ji Shengsheng said this, he was about to rush into the rain.
Ji Sisi pulled her back and said, "You're already soaked, do you really have to go look for it now?"
She turned around and met Ji Shengsheng's stubborn eyes. She almost forgot that the heroine was not only naive and virtuous, but also liked to dwell on trivial matters.
The two looked at each other, and Ji Sisi was the first to be defeated.
"Okay, I'll go find it first. You go back and change into dry clothes. Don't think about catching a cold and making mom and dad feel bad for you!"
This place is only two steps away from the courtyard where they live. Ji Shengsheng thought about it and nodded in agreement.
[Host, I never thought you would help the heroine find something.] The system sighed.
[Didn’t you say that? This jade pendant is very important to the heroine. ]
Ji Sisi thought that since this thing was very important to the heroine, if she helped find it, she would feel less guilty when bullying the other party.
She walked for a distance and finally couldn't bear it anymore. She bent down, picked up her slippers, and walked barefoot on the muddy path.
Although it's slippery, at least it's easier to walk on.
The system was so moved that the code flew everywhere: [Host, you can actually do this for the mission, you really, I'm crying! ]
Ji Sisi: [.Before you cry yourself to death, can you please get me out of this stupid and sad storyline? ]
【cannot. 】
She knew it! She really shouldn't have had illusions about the system.
The rain seemed to have gotten heavier, and it was almost impossible to see the road ahead. Ji Sisi regretted it and decided to walk along the same route again. If she could find it, that would be great. If not, she would let the system find a solution.
Walk along the path from the courtyard to the place where they are soaked to the skin, and then return the same way.
[System, can you please tell me what that jade pendant looks like? ]
System: [In short, it looks very expensive. ]
"."
Ji Sisi knew that she shouldn't listen to such nonsense and she had to rely on herself.
The rain was getting heavier, and just when she was about to give up and go home, she suddenly caught a glimpse of a flash of red next to a puddle on the side of the road.
Could that be Ji Shengsheng’s jade pendant?
Although Ji Sisi had never seen it before, she thought that a jade pendant should be worn on a red string. With the idea that she couldn't let it go, Ji Sisi bent down to pick up the red string on the ground.
But the soil next to the drainage pit was soft to begin with, and after being soaked by rain, she stepped over it and before she could even reach out with her hands, she fell into the ditch.
When she climbed out of the puddle holding the jade pendant at the end of the red rope, half of her body was covered in mud and water, and she looked totally embarrassed.
Even though the jade pendant was stained with mud and water, it still looked transparent. It really looked expensive. [.Host, are you okay? ]
The system's voice sounded in her mind. Ji Sisi reached out and wiped the mud off her face. "If you want to laugh, just laugh. I can't hit you anyway."
As soon as she finished speaking, the system went silent. There was no need to guess, her voice must have been blocked.
Ji Sisi wiped the mud off her face with her sleeve, picked up the umbrella on the ground, and lamented that if a person is unlucky, he can fall flat on his face even if he bends down.
She slipped with every step and finally returned to the courtyard. At the door, she saw Ji Shengsheng, who had changed her clothes and was about to go out.
When the other person saw her covered in mud, he quickly trotted over, his face full of worry: "Sisi! Are you okay?"
Ji Sisi threw the muddy jade pendant in her hand to her and shook off the mud on her feet: "It's okay, I just fell flat on my face."
No, why is he scolding me? But it is not wrong.
She was now covered in mud and just wanted to take a shower and change her clothes.
Ji Shengsheng held the muddy jade pendant in her hand, which seemed to still have the warmth of the other person's palm. She actually helped him find the jade pendant.
Ji Sisi first went to the well to wash off the dirt on her feet and slippers, and washed her face at the same time. She hadn't noticed it just now, and when she rinsed with water, the clean water instantly turned into muddy water.
Was this how she came back? Did she not want to save face?
The system wants to see excitement, but the fun is created by oneself.
Ji Sisi boiled a kettle of hot water, took a quick shower, changed into clean clothes, and then felt her body temperature warming up.
There were no tasks on rainy days, but for the sake of the show, Lan Qin and a few others were playing board games in the next room. She lay on the bed, listening to the sound of rain outside the window, and her eyelids began to fight.
When she woke up again, it was already dark. Ji Sisi didn't know what time it was. The rain was still falling outside the window, and she could vaguely hear laughter from next door.
[Host! You finally woke up! If you don't wake up, I will crash! ]
[Host! Host, please say something! Are you really crazy? I was wrong. I shouldn't have let you go out. If you are really crazy, what will happen to our mission?]
The system was howling in her head, and only then did Ji Sisi feel dizzy and sore all over.
She is the vicious female supporting role, not the heroine, so such a thing will never happen to her. So there is only one possibility left: she has a fever.
Ji Sisi raised her sore hand and touched her forehead. It was okay, not too hot, and she could still hold on.
She wanted to lie down and rest for a while, but the system in her mind was about to explode.
[I can't sleep! Host, do you want to close your eyes and never open them again? ]
Ji Sisi was already feeling unwell, but the system noise made her even more uncomfortable. She had no choice but to drag her aching body to look for her suitcase and fever-reducing medicine.
As soon as her feet touched the ground, the lights in the room suddenly came on, and Ji Sisi subconsciously stretched out her hand to block the light in front of her.
"Sisi, wake up! Why is your face so red? Do you have a fever?"
Without waiting for her to speak, he reached out and pushed her onto the bed.
"Don't move, I'll go find some medicine!"
Ji Sisi didn't even move her lips as hot water, antipyretic drugs, and cooling patches were all provided for her.
Maybe the system really crashed, and this scene didn't appear to make its presence felt.
After taking the medicine, Ji Sisi felt sleepy and vaguely felt a warm feeling on her neck. She was too sleepy to open her eyes and muttered a few words, but was too lazy to pay attention.
Ji Shengsheng tidied up her sweat-soaked hair and said, "This is what my mother asked me to keep me safe. It will be yours from now on."
Why don't you give me comments, recommendation tickets, and monthly tickets? Are you worried that other authors will get jealous? (I will update in the evening, and will resume updating in the early morning tomorrow)
