Seeing that Xiao Yuan was fine, Marshal Xiao invited Anning and her family to sit in the living room.
While going downstairs, Marshal Xiao was pondering how to get Anning to co to the Xiao Family every day to sing to Xiao Yuan. Once everyone sat down, he surprisingly heard Anning say, "Marshal Xiao, Lady, may I stay at your esteed residence for a few days?"
Huh?
Why wouldn’t it be okay? Of course, it’s perfectly fine.
Mrs. Xiao excitedly grabbed Anning’s hand: "Child, what are you saying? Of course, you can stay at our ho for a few days. Feel free to stay as long as you want."
Xiao i nodded continuously: "Yes, sister, just stay as long as you like."
"Ahem, ahem."
Cui Zhengxun coughed a few tis: "Anning..."
Anning turned to Cui Zhengxun and Li Wan’er: "Dad, Mom, you saw have an episode earlier; I’m not sure if my spiritual power will have any more issues. I want to stay here for a few days of observation. Besides, I discovered that my singing works for Marshal Xiao, so I want to see if I can make him feel a little better."
"You can co every day."
Li Wan’er gently advised Anning: "After all, staying at soone else’s house is not ideal. Being so forward is quite impolite; it’s only because the Marshal and Lady are so accommodating that they tolerate your antics."
"No, I really like this child."
Mrs. Xiao held onto Anning’s hand tightly: "I liked her as soon as I saw her. I was hoping she’d stay at our ho longer. we’re just worried you might not be willing to share her. Besides, her health is important. If she stays here, there will be healers watching over her. If she feels uncomfortable, she’ll get tily treatnt. This is good for her."
"Yes, yes."
Xiao i nodded and leaned close to Li Wan’er, acting coy: "Aunt Li, I also really like Sister Ning. You know I have two brothers and no sisters. I’m especially envious of classmates with sisters. When I saw Sister Ning, I felt like she was my sister. I just want her to stay longer so I can spend more ti with her and have soone to talk to. Aunt Li, please say yes, alright?"
Xiao i was incredibly clever. Her acting coy and talking about sisterhood left Li Wan’er with little to say.
Marshal Xiao tried persuading Cui Zhengxun: "I’m a few years older than you, so let call you brother. Let’s not be so formal. It’s no big deal for your daughter to stay here for a few days. With healers around, it’s beneficial for her, and she can sing to my son, which, as you’ve seen, truly helps A Yuan. Frankly, I have a personal reason. My son has been bedridden for so long, struggling every day. As his father, it pains to see. I just wish for him to feel better, even just for a day or two. I’d be at peace even if I died..."
Marshal Xiao spoke from a personal perspective, sincerely pleading with Cui Zhengxun as a father: "You’re also a father. Please agree, for my sake. I assure you Ningning will be very happy staying here, and I promise no harm will co to her."
With such heartfelt words, what else could Cui Zhengxun say? He had no choice but to nod in agreent.
Even if Marshal Xiao hadn’t said such things, for Xiao Yuan, Cui Zhengxun would have agreed eventually.
How did Xiao Yuan get injured? It was for the protection of Raya Star.
Raya Star is the frontline in the war between humans and the Insect Clan, a shield for human planets. If Raya Star falls, the Insect Clan would launch a massive attack on human society, leading to catastrophic consequences for humans.
In other words, Xiao Yuan is a hero of the entire Alliance. Doing sothing for a hero, Cui Zhengxun was willing to.
Even though he’s a businessman, he has patriotic feelings and respects heroic figures.
"Alright."
Cui Zhengxun nodded in agreent.
Marshal Xiao then smiled: "If you’re worried, you can stay too. I feel a connection with you, brother. Stay for a few days; let’s have a good drink together."
Cui Zhengxun waved it off: "That’s really not possible; there’s business at ho to attend to. Another day, I’ll drink with you, dear brother."
Cui Zhengxun and Li Wan’er didn’t stay long before leaving. Before leaving, Li Wan’er told Anning she’d send soone over with her daily necessities.
After they left, Mrs. Xiao quickly arranged a room for Anning, having the butler prepare clothes and other essentials for her.
Anning chatted with Xiao i for a while, then excused herself, saying she was tired, and went to rest in the room.
Entering the room Mrs. Xiao arranged, Anning lay directly on the bed.
Anning stared at the high ceiling, recalling the mories acquired from the original persona.
At first, the transmigration girl, Fang Xiaolian, connected with major or minor families like Cui Anlin, and gradually gained fa with their help.
In the original persona’s mory, Fang Xiaolian already had several admirers, including Cui Anlin, who was deeply infatuated with her.
Ultimately, Cui Anlin killed his own sister for Fang Xiaolian.
Cui Zhengxun and Li Wan’er were too busy with work to pay much attention to their children. To maintain family harmony, the original persona always tolerated Cui Anlin. In the end, when the original was killed, Cui Zhengxun and Li Wan’er realized the truth.
After the original’s death, Cui Zhengxun and Li Wan’er aged rapidly.
They wept bitterly and eventually disowned Cui Anlin, who was later expelled from ho. With the help of Fang Xiaolian’s other admirers, Cui Anlin seized power, took over the family business, drove out Cui Zhengxun and Li Wan’er, tarnished Li Wan’er’s reputation, and left the elderly couple in misery, leading to their tragic deaths.
While the original was alive, Fang Xiaolian had already been entangled with an heir from a top family, Xiao Gen.
When with Xiao Gen, Fang Xiaolian represented the Xiao Family, and the forces under Xiao Gen were substantial, him being the heir apparent to the Xiao Family.
This ans, at that ti, Xiao Yuan was no longer in the picture.
After Xiao Yuan’s spiritual power shattered, he remained bedridden for so long. With his temperant, he should’ve held on longer, but why did he die shortly afterward?
And what was the crisis Anning sensed with Xiao Yuan today?
It left Anning pondering deeply.
Anning thought of running into Xiao Gen outside Xiao Yuan’s room when she first arrived at the Xiao Family, a fierce gleam flashing in her eyes.
anwhile, on the reality show, major bases had formulated an elixir to restore zombies to normal.
Soon, these elixirs were brought outside the bases by Superpower Users, gradually spreading. In a short ti, countless zombies consud the elixir, returning to human form.
Not long after, all zombies in that world were restored.
On a sunny morning, Chu Ming and his team stood under lush trees, basking in the warmth of long-missed sunlight, listening to the celebration of humans, a sense of imnse pride swelling within.
At that mont, a chanical voice echoed by their ears: "Congratulations, players, on successfully completing the mission. You may now unbind from the ga world. Countdown begins..."
