Gasp! She's a Time Traveler Using Modern Tech to Improve Ancient Life Chapter 642 - 640: Heartbroken

After three hours, under Lin Wanwan’s not so devout but certainly nagging prayers to all the passing deities, the Space-Ti Bracelet was successfully restored to its original state.

Lin Wanwan, who occasionally touched the gap on the Space-Ti Bracelet, finally couldn’t feel that gap anymore.

She was excitedly and secretly touching the Jade Bracelet repeatedly under the robe Xiao Chong draped over her, eager to try summoning the Space-Ti Gate.

At this mont, Xiao Chong, who had been gazing into the unknown depths all night, suddenly turned his head to look at her, as if holding back a thousand unspoken words in his deep eyes.

Lin Wanwan looked up and t his gaze, feeling both excitent and confusion.

Xiao Chong reached out, plucked a leaf from Lin Wanwan’s hair, and said, "Listening to Cousin’s words tonight is better than reading ten years of books."

Lin Wanwan felt that Xiao Chong was mocking her since most of the ti tonight she had been hinting at the freedom of the future and the suffering of the class system in the Great Tang, without saying any substantial content.

She hadn’t talked about the first and second industrial revolutions, hadn’t talked about the future of the Great Tang, nor the matters of the Lanling Xiao clan, so how could it be "better than reading ten years of books"?

Lin Wanwan had this bit of self-awareness.

It had to be said, she was still her selfish self; even if the secret of ti travel was exposed, she wouldn’t completely let go, saying everything she knew.

How could the clever Xiao Chong not know? But tonight, to him, nothing else was important besides Lin Wanwan herself.

The aning she repeatedly emphasized, he understood.

"Cousin, are you secretly laughing at ?" Lin Wanwan looked at Xiao Chong’s unfathomable eyes and slightly pouted.

Xiao Chong’s dark eyes betrayed no emotion, and suddenly he pressed Lin Wanwan’s head to himself with his palm, his cold lips touching hers briefly.

Lin Wanwan was stunned; sotis he was restrained and courteous, while other tis he was bold, unlike an ancient person at all.

Whether it was intense or as light as a dragonfly skimming the water, he could always easily disrupt her heart.

Xiao Chong, who suddenly attacked Lin Wanwan, showed no guilt, a smile blooming at the corner of his lips like an endless spring: "Cousin, I understand everything you want to say. Since this is what you want, I’ll fulfill it for you."

Lin Wanwan didn’t understand at first, but monts later, she read the unspoken words in his eyes.

All the color drained from her face, tears welled up in an instant as she looked at Xiao Chong with blurred, watery eyes: "Cousin..."

Xiao Chong saw her eyes brimming with tears, pulled her head to his chest, preventing her from looking at him to avoid his own embarrassnt, he took a gentle breath, sighing: "If you continue like this, I won’t let you go. All your painstaking efforts tonight would be in vain."

Buried in his chest, apart from the tears ravaging, Lin Wanwan couldn’t say a word.

The night breeze gently brushed her face, nominally carrying the warmth of spring, yet Lin Wanwan felt a chill all over.

She understood Xiao Chong’s intention, perhaps this was the first and last ti he allowed her ambiguities.

How smart and proud he was!

After a brief embrace, Xiao Chong released Lin Wanwan, stood up tall, and raised his face slightly towards the upcoming sunrise.

Lin Wanwan watched Xiao Chong’s back, feeling an emptiness in her heart, experiencing loss for the first ti.

The sun suddenly jumped up from the depths of the eastern mountains and forests, its golden light overwhelming, Xiao Chong gently closed his eyes, the morning glow caressing his perfectly picturesque face like a playful child.

He quickly opened his eyes, the vibrant hues that were in his eyes dissipated, and they returned to being as tranquil as an abyss.

He didn’t look back but knew that Lin Wanwan had already left.

The slowly restored Jade Bracelet, she thought it would be unseen if she turned the gap to the underside of her wrist, not knowing that a martial artist is most sensitive to changes in the Heaven and Earth Essence Qi. He had already noticed this anomaly, pretending not to know.

Sotis, reacting too quickly is also a kind of tornt, happier to be blissfully ignorant.

His heart ached imnsely, yet his face remained as calm as ever.

He could have thodically ensnared Lin Wanwan so deeply in his web that she could never escape, or he could have made her unable to separate pretense from reality.

Even if she ca from a thousand years later, she acknowledged relatives, joined a clan, and adopted a child in the Great Tang, she would be full of weaknesses and vulnerabilities, unable to escape if he wanted.

But in the end, he chose to let go.

This was not like him at all, as he was soone who would do whatever it took to achieve his goals.

Perhaps love makes people beco foolish unlike themselves.

Lin Wanwan stayed in the Great Tang for more than three hours, but upon returning to the modern world, less than an hour had passed.

The room was still filled with the nauseating sll of blood, and looking out from the door, they could see the police’s cordon.

It seed that the thief was dead, otherwise her house wouldn’t be cordoned off.

Lin Wanwan was furious with that thief. It was already dawn in the Great Tang, around five or six in the morning, and by ten in the morning, a Buddhist ceremony was supposed to start.

And she didn’t even know if she could fly to the Ancient City as planned. If she got stuck in Yongcheng because of this, it would really be a ss.

After she called the police, she was absorbed into the Great Tang, not knowing how to explain to the uncles in the police why she wasn’t ho when they arrived.

Hmm, maybe she should say she was too scared and hid in the closet, fainting?

Lin Wanwan, having just experienced a breakup spanning a thousand years, felt her head, heart, and whole body aching, nearly unable to think.

The bloodstains in the villa couldn’t be wiped away for the ti being due to the cordon, the police would surely co back for further investigation.

With a pale face, Lin Wanwan walked out of the room, avoiding the bloodstains all the way, stepping across the cordon, and headed straight downstairs. The house was currently uninhabitable.

Luckily, the first floor wasn’t as chaotic as the second. Because Lin Wanwan’s front door lock was replaced with a high-end fingerprint smart lock, the Tomb Robber and the old carpenter didn’t choose to break through the front door but climbed the second-floor terrace instead to break in.

Suddenly, Lin Wanwan thought of sothing, hurried to the front door, and opened it to check the dog’s villa outside.

The automatic sensor lights at the door lit up, but Fortune, the dog, was nowhere to be seen in the villa, leaving only a pool of blood!

Lin Wanwan painfully clutched her forehead, the other side had a gun, and she hadn’t heard any barking at all then; Fortune was definitely dood.

Now that it was missing, either the police took compassion and sent it to the vet for rescue, or it was taken as evidence by the police.

Lin Wanwan felt it was mostly the latter. A ho invasion with a firearm resulting in soone’s death was such a serious criminal case; how could the police have the leisure to care about a dog’s life?

Her heart ached even more despite having Fortune for less than a year, the smart and anthropomorphic Fortune had already won Lin Wanwan’s heart, she considered him a family mber in the modern world.
