The Strong Female Lead Versus The Most Miserable Male Lead-Chapter 274 - 272: Want to Save You
Chapter 274 -272: Want to Save You
Auntie is back.
These words worked better than anything else, as the three confrontational people, like three squirrels, turned their heads in unison, all looking with the same curvature towards Nian Shutong approaching from the opposite side of the creek.
At this moment, Dou Dou had already started running joyfully toward Nian Shutong, who was walking in the morning light.
“Auntie——”
Dou Dou spread his little arms, his posture clearly begging for a hug.
Nian Shutong set down the Little Pink Pig she was carrying, squatted down, and opened her arms just as wide, embracing Dou Dou who rushed towards her.
“Auntie, I missed you so much!”
“Auntie, Dou Dou has been super good, listening to Uncle Xiao He.”
“Also, also, Auntie, Dou Dou has memorized the Three Character Classic!”
“You said you’d take Dou Dou out to play!”
Dou Dou chattered non-stop, his light tone tinged with excitement.
His voice buzzed in Nian Shutong’s ears, instantly making the scene lively.
She hugged Dou Dou, patted his back, and Dou Dou, understanding, stepped back, his eyes bright as he watched Nian Shutong, his anticipation hardly hidden.
“Don’t worry, Auntie keeps her word, I’ll take you out.”
“Yeah!”
Dou Dou jumped on the spot, excitedly shouting, “Long live Auntie! Long live Auntie!”
Everyone, including Ji Sisi, noticed the commotion around Dou Dou.
Watching the excited Dou Dou, she felt she had better work hard and make money for Mr. Nian.
It must be said that Ji Sisi’s thought process was indeed quite peculiar.
After his excitement subsided, Dou Dou finally calmed down, his little face flushed as he watched Nian Shutong, not wanting to step away even for a moment.
Nian Shutong, holding Dou Dou’s hand, pointed to the Little Pink Pig on the ground and said, “Dou Dou, look.”
Reluctantly, Dou Dou shifted his gaze from Nian Shutong to the Little Pink Pig,
“Auntie! Are we going to have roasted suckling pig again!”
“Auntie is so nice, Dou Dou likes it so so much!”
The Little Pink Pig on the ground took a few steps backward and stood behind Nian Shutong.
This Little Douding is scary; he actually wants to eat me.
Nian Shutong was both amused and understanding of Dou Dou’s thoughts, since roasted suckling pig really was delicious!
Nian Shutong pulled the Little Pink Pig forward and took Dou Dou’s hand again, saying, “Dou Dou, this is… Little Fen.”
“It’s going to be our pet from now on; we need to take care of it, not eat it.”
Dou Dou, looking at the serious Nian Shutong, squatted down his small frame and gently stroked the back of the Little Pink Pig.
“I’m sorry, Little Fen, Dou Dou didn’t know. Don’t be upset, Dou Dou will protect you well.”
The Little Pink Pig was initially a bit resistant, but this little fellow’s hands were quite tender after all; alright, forgiven.
“Dou Dou, from now on, Little Pink Pig will accompany you. Remember to take him wherever you go.”
“Little Pink Pig, make sure to protect Dou Dou well.”
Dou Dou happily embraced the Little Pink Pig’s neck, saying, “Auntie, Dou Dou will definitely take good care of it.”
To Dou Dou, this Little Pink Pig was so small, it was definitely Dou Dou who would protect it, the pet Auntie had given him.
The Little Pink Pig, unseen by Dou Dou, subtly nodded and conveyed through his Divine Sense to Nian Shutong: Understood.
After calming Dou Dou down, Nian Shutong finally crossed the bridge, and as she walked past the three “squirrels,” she only said two words.
“Dismissed.”
Rubble was the first to walk away. With Nian Shutong back, Rubble had to be obedient and not waste money.
Ha Ha also put down his arms that he had been holding open, “The nice guy is back, so Ha Ha has to get back to work.”
Only Fu Yunhe was left alone, holding two steamed buns and listlessly followed Nian Shutong.
Along the way, he simply explained the cause and process of the events to Nian Shutong, finally adding, “Next time you go out, take me with you.”
He no longer wanted to stay here, guarding these few.
It felt harder than being on the battlefield.
Listening to Fu Yunhe’s somewhat tragic life, Nian Shutong wanted to laugh, but she prioritized solving the problem first.
“You go check on the rubble’s Light Computer later, reset it for him.”
“Okay, but you have to come with me, I told him I would fix it, but he wouldn’t let me.”
Nian Shutong nodded reluctantly, “Understood, I’ll go.”
“As for Ha Ha, just stay away from him,” she said, somewhat puzzled.
“Why do you two seem so incompatible? Why does Ha Ha just dislike you?”
Fu Yunhe glanced at the now diligently working Ha Ha and had a bit of a theory.
“Perhaps it’s because there’s not a single similarity between me and his Commander.”
He said this with a hint of melancholy.
He indeed was different, and he didn’t know if he ever had the chance to return to the battlefield in this lifetime.
Listening to Fu Yunhe’s words, Nian Shutong had a momentary impulse to ask, “Who are you, really?”
But upon second thought, was it important? To her, it was not.

“Xiao He, do you want your body to get better?”
“Huh?”
The sudden question confused Fu Yunhe.
“Fu Yunhe, do you want your body to get better?”
The seriousness in Nian Shutong’s words brought Fu Yunhe to his senses, and he earnestly replied, “I do.”
“Okay, starting tonight, I’ll treat you. The process will be painful. Can you endure it?”
Nian Shutong’s casual remarks forced Fu Yunhe to take it seriously.
“Nian Shutong, do you know what you are proposing? You’re talking about treating an innate constitution issue, about changing a person’s cultivation talent. Are you sure you want to help me? Even if it might mean I leave this place afterward?”
Nian Shutong smiled casually yet confidently, a confidence uniquely hers.
“I just want to do it. Whether you leave or not is your choice.”
Leaving these words behind, she turned and walked away.
Indeed, as she said, she just wanted to do it.
Fu Yunhe, standing behind, stared at the impressive Nian Shutong. His heart was pounding hard, leaving him unsure whether it was because of her or her words.
He stood for a long while, calming his emotions before bringing breakfast into Nian Shutong’s room.
Inside, Nian Shutong was sleeping.
Fu Yunhe didn’t dare to disturb her. He didn’t know how Nian Shutong cultivated, but she must have been incredibly tired.
Because the Nian Shutong he knew hardly ever slept.
Fu Yunhe, leaving the small wooden house, instructed Dou Dou not to disturb Nian Shutong and told the other children to keep their distance from the small wooden house.
Everyone lightened their workload, staying away from the small wooden house, all to let Nian Shutong have a good sleep.
Dou Dou, along with Little Pink Pig, sat at the doorstep of the small wooden house, guarding their aunt.
Auntie was tired.
Nian Shutong slept until the evening.
It was the delicious aroma of the food that woke her—not hunger, but craving.
