Baby Serendipity: The Whole World Fell In Love With Me-Chapter 569 - 568: So, Mianmian Pities You
Chapter 569: Chapter 568: So, Mianmian Pities You
The rescue hadn’t succeeded, and instead, he had exposed himself—Su Chenjin figured the enemy would lie low for a while now.
Just as Black Tortoise was thinking this, a car pulled up in front of Mianmian.
"What’s this for?" Black Tortoise knew a car was a means of transport, but he didn’t want to ride in one, "Let’s use the Shrinking the ground magic to get there."
Mianmian tilted her head towards Yang Xian, "Yang Xian summoned the car, and in the city, it’s not always about hurrying but to ride in a car"
Black Tortoise was still reluctant, "Give me a reason."
Mianmian tucked her mobile phone back into her bag, and her big eyes swiveled around sneakily.
Actually, she also wanted to use magic—Shrinking the ground was way too convenient, instantly covering great distances.
But her great-nephew had said, they were now significant figures, and after the Supernatural Management Bureau’s live-stream, their every move would attract public attention.
If they acted too differently from the crowd, it might provoke a backlash from some people.
Even if those people started off adoring them, once emotions turned to backlash, they would immediately become villains targeting them. It might even cause social unrest, considering special beings like them had been fully exposed to the public through the live-stream trial.
After thinking it over, Mianmian decided it was better to keep society stable, so she gave up on using magic and decided to take Uncle Xuan Wu with her in the car.
"Riding in a car is fun, the Library isn’t far," Mianmian thought hard for a better reason, "If we’re not in a hurry, we can take it slow, and Uncle Xuan Wu can play on his mobile phone in the car."
When he heard the words "play on the mobile phone," Black Tortoise remembered that during the live-stream, he felt Mianmian was breaking the rules and rushed to her side in his anxiety.
Back then, he had just opened a game when Mianmian caught his attention!
Black Tortoise no longer struggled with whether to take the car. He picked up his phone to unlock the screen and opened the automatically shut-down King’s Glory.
As Black Tortoise focused on his phone, Mianmian tugged at his clothes, leading him into the car. Black Tortoise complied and sat in the back seat along with Mianmian.
The car had been arranged by Su Chenjin for Mianmian’s exclusive use, and as the Bodyguard Leader, Yang Xian now had control over it.
"Why did my character suddenly gain kills and die several times?" Black Tortoise furrowed his brow in confusion.
Mianmian didn’t know either, as she had also played during the live-stream, so she looked at Yang Xian hoping he could provide an answer.
Yang Xian glanced at Black Tortoise’s phone and half an hour had passed, yet the game that Black Tortoise had started hadn’t ended.
"In King’s Glory, if you exit the game’s main screen or go AFK, the system will assign an AI to take over your character, so the character will move on its own."
Black Tortoise listened to Yang Xian’s explanation, "So my character was possessed by someone else?"
Yang Xian: "...Yes."
Black Tortoise stopped talking and proceeded to control his character and join in the game.
Just as Mianmian had said, he was now really engrossed in gaming; when he got emotional, he’d even curse.
As it happened, his teammates in the game betrayed him, and Black Tortoise blurted out, "Damn."
When Yang Xian first heard Black Tortoise curse, he didn’t react.
Previously, when Black Tortoise woke from a deep sleep, both his way of speaking and his mannerisms were like those of an "ancient person". In less than two weeks, Black Tortoise suddenly mastered the modern slang of young people—the essence of the nation—to the utmost degree.
For a while, Yang Xian couldn’t tell whether Black Tortoise had been reborn and grown up in the modern world, or if he had grown up in the modern world after being reborn.
Since he’d accepted the Divine Power left in the Divine Statue, he often found himself in such confusion.
Comparatively, Situ Zha had no such drastic changes even after regaining his memories. After all, in the past as well as now, Situ Zha was younger than him.
"Yang Xian, what’s wrong?"
Lost in thought, Yang Xian suddenly heard Mianmian’s voice.
Yang Xian turned and fixed his gaze on Little Bun next to him.
The round, round eyes of Little Bun were filled with concern, and his pristine pupils, reflecting his image, seemed to be filled with his presence.
Yet the shadow in them bore no resemblance to his image before reincarnation.
"You seem very upset."
Mianmian noticed Yang Xian staring at her with a strange expression, stood up on the chair, raised her two small hands, and firmly cupped his face.
She began to gaze intently into Yang Xian’s eyes, not blinking an eye.
Yang Xian blinked twice, trying to free his face from Mianmian’s palms, but he didn’t succeed.
"Don’t do this."
Not wanting to struggle against Mianmian’s strength, Yang Xian could only speak softly.
Mianmian’s little lips pursed tightly as she pressed her forehead against Yang Xian’s.
After a while, she finally said, "It has to be this way. My mom said, if a friend is taciturn and seems upset and unwilling to speak, you must comfort him like this!"
"Otherwise, he might not realize someone cares for him, nor understand what he means to them!"
Yang Xian was somewhat torn between laughter and tears.
What sort of comfort was this?
Thinking this way, yet to Yang Xian’s surprise, he indeed found a semblance of tranquility in Mianmian’s relentless gaze.
"I named the dog Xiaotian. What were you thinking after you heard that?" Yang Xian suddenly spoke again.
Mianmian glanced at Xiaotian, who was well-behaved on the ground, and then candidly expressed her immediate thought, "I felt sorry for you."
Yang Xian: "Sorry for me? Did your wound start hurting again?" His tone was slightly anxious.
Mianmian shook her head, "Not that, I’m feeling sorry for Yang Xian. You told Mianmian before that you just wanted to be Yang Xian, but still..."
Then, Mianmian let go of Yang Xian’s face, her voice muffled as she looked down, "Mianmian was thinking why you did that, was it because Mianmian wasn’t powerful enough, so you wanted to fight the bad guys yourself?"
"So, that’s why you changed your mind... and that’s why Mianmian feels sorry for you."
Yang Xian wasn’t sure what to say for a moment.
Mianmian was just a child, yet she had to endure more than them—how come it turned out she was the one feeling sorry for him? No wonder her expression was so strange when he called Xiaotian.
The little monkey, which usually hung over Mianmian’s shoulder like an ornament, climbed down from her shoulder and stretched out its fluffy little hand to pat Mianmian’s face.
Mianmian, tickled by the patting, quickly grabbed the little monkey’s hand.
"...It has nothing to do with you," Yang Xian finally spoke after a long silence, "Really, so don’t be upset."
Black Tortoise, engrossed in his game nearby, glanced at Mianmian, then at Yang Xian, and suddenly scooped Mianmian into his embrace.
"Come watch your Uncle Xuan Wu show you how it’s done!"
Black Tortoise brought the phone in front of Mianmian, also tucking the earphones into her ears.
Just as she was about to cry from all the emotion, Mianmian suddenly saw Black Tortoise’s character dash into the enemy’s encirclement, shouting "This is indecent!" before slowly collapsing in the middle of a pink Magic Array.
Black Tortoise: ...
Damn, that did not go as planned!
