When the banquet was over, the small spaceships and luxury cars parked outside also left the Marshal's Mansion one after another, and the entire Marshal's Mansion had returned to tranquility. If the entire Marshal's Mansion was greatly appreciated by the guests, it must be the plants in the yard. Since I got advanced equipment from the plant cultivation center that can adjust the temperature and simulate the sun, the roses in the yard are still blooming vigorously even in winter.
It was getting late, and after dinner, Lin Ning thought that Mr. Li would stay at the Marshal's Mansion, but he just seriously told them that they are now engaged, and they must cherish and support each other in the future, and then went back to Zeng and his wife The mansion where I lived for a long time.
The servants and robots in the hall are cleaning up lightly, and the housekeeper, Uncle Chang, is counting the gifts received today. Lin Ning looked at the room full of presents, and thought that when the actual wedding was held, the presents might not be soft-handed.
Thinking of this, seeing that he had nothing to do, he yawned lightly, and told Uncle Chang that he was going to rest first.
Walking into Li Chengyan's room on the second floor with ease... Uh, no, in fact, this is already the common bedroom of the two of them. However, because there was no formal marriage, this place has never been decorated like the wedding room of the real newlyweds. But their wedding is scheduled for two months later, so there is really no difference.
The bedroom door automatically opened after recognizing him, and Lin Ning lay down on the sofa exhaustedly after entering. He turned on the smart housekeeper and let the bathtub automatically prepare hot water for bathing. After adjusting the temperature, he took off his tie, took off his coat, and stared at the ceiling in a daze.
Speaking of completing the mission, the system has been in this world for a long time. Lin Ning doesn't know how long the system can stay in a world, but judging from the fact that the system has been on-hook for a long time recently and has insufficient energy, it seems that the system will not be able to stay here much longer. In the past, the system was always on 24 hours a day, but recently it seemed to be suffering from narcolepsy and fell asleep all day long.
Probably the side that controls the system, a kind of control over the system. Lin Ning vaguely feels that this is a means to restrict a system from staying in a certain world for a long time.
With a slight mood swing, Lin Ning asked softly in her heart: [System, are you awake?]
There was no movement, everything was quiet. Lin Ning sighed, and closed her eyes somewhat disappointed.
[Host...] The system's voice sounded suddenly, intermittently, a little weak.
Lin Ning suddenly opened his eyes, as if a star was shining in his eyes, he didn't have the mood to argue with the system now, and asked quickly: [Why did you sleep for so long this time, is there something wrong?]
The system voice was a bit sad, it sounded aggrieved, really like a human being: [I was ordered... to leave tonight... I am, I am here to say goodbye to you, the host...]
Lin Ning's eyes widened in surprise. Although he had vaguely foreseen the arrival of this day in his heart, he still couldn't help but feel heartbroken when it actually happened. After struggling for a while, he bit his lips to suppress the soreness in his heart, and comforted him softly: [Don't be afraid if you're fine, you've already taken care of several hosts, why can't you bear the parting? Fortunately, it's just life and death, not death, get ready to leave quickly, I will remember to miss you.]
The system sobbed and asked: [Will you really not forget me?]
Lin Ning frowned, and said with a soft smile: [Take me from one world to another, such an exciting experience, how can you forget it?]
[…]The system is silent.
Seeing that something was wrong with the system, Lin Ning was a little puzzled.
[Actually...] The system hesitated, and the words came to his lips but couldn't come out.
Lin Ning was anxious when she heard that, and asked: [What actually?]
The system shook his head, changed the subject, and said: [It's nothing, I just want to say that the food you cook is good. Although I can't eat it as a system, I still like it very much.]
What it didn't tell Lin Ning was that after the host completed the task, the system had to leave the world immediately, and then the world consciousness would erase the memory of the host, and no longer have all the memories about the system. The reason why it stays here for so long is also to let Lin Ning not forget it so quickly.
Lin Ning frowned, subconsciously feeling that this was not what the system wanted to say. It's just that seeing that the system insisted on not talking, he couldn't keep asking.
[Then, then I'm leaving...] The last voice of the system was so weak that it could hardly be heard. It was the first time that it felt that it was so close to humans, but it was leaving so soon, and it felt very sad.
Lin Ning couldn't hear the weak voice of the system. Even though the system might be just a bunch of data, he felt uncomfortable hearing it. He gently covered his eyes, and bid farewell to the system as calmly as possible: [Well, I wish you good luck.]
This time his voice fell, but there was no reply for a long time.
[system?]
[Is it still... the system?]
…
The spacious bedroom was surprisingly quiet, and Lin Ning suddenly wished that the sound insulation in this bedroom was not good, so that he could still hear the sound of the servants cleaning up outside, so that he would not be overwhelmed by the overwhelming loneliness of this moment engulf.
The heart is depressed, and even the tip of the nose is sour.
After a moment of silence, Lin Ning held his forehead with trembling hands, his eyes were finally red, he closed his eyes deeply, and two lines of tears fell down suddenly.
[… I wish you a better host than me in the next world.]
When Li Chengyan returned to the bedroom, he did not see Lin Ning. The light in the bathroom was on, but there was no movement inside. He frowned, listened to the movement outside, and then knocked on the door.
No one in the bathroom responded.
Li Chengyan asked: "Ning Ning?"
There was still no sound, Li Chengyan was worried, and quickly turned the lock to open the bathroom door.
I saw the thin and beautiful young man, whose clothes were half off, sleeping quietly in the bathtub, with his head tilted slightly, his fine black hair was a little messy, and there were signs of crying on his face. He was just lying in the tub, looking as if he had fallen asleep while undressing, looking sleepy.
Li Chengyan's heart tightened, and he rushed over to put his arms around Lin Ning's waist, shaking it slightly, realizing that Lin Ning was just asleep, and then slightly let go of his strained heart. Then he frowned and looked at Lin Ning's face, his eyes were slightly closed, a little red and swollen, the tip of his nose and the end of his eyes were pink, especially the eyelashes were still stained with fine teardrops, it seemed that he couldn't sleep well in his dream.
Lemon what's the matter? Li Chengyan blamed himself deeply, his nails almost dug into his palm. The two of them have been getting along day and night recently, but they don't know that something is deeply disturbing him.
He stretched out his fingers to wipe away the tears from the corners of Lin Ning's eyes, his heart ached terribly, and his deep eyes became deeper and deeper. He pulled a towel over and was about to wipe Lin Ning's body before hugging her to the bed.
The young man in his arms seemed to feel movement, and tears flowed down even more unscrupulously. He grabbed Li Chengyan's arm and whispered softly: "Don't go, please..."
Li Chengyan's hand stopped: "..."
The young man in his arms was crying silently, and dropped a few drops of golden beans, and soon woke up crying himself, rubbing his eyes at a loss, the corners of his eyes were red, as if he had been bullied hard up.
Li Chengyan hugged Lin Ning, gently kissed away the tears from his eyes, his voice was hoarse and dull, with faint worry and self-blame: "Ning Ning...why are you crying?"
Lin Ning looked around blankly and was stunned.
Yes, why is he crying
Why does it seem that I have forgotten something very important, but what is it? He couldn't think of anything at all, and he was always depressed in his heart, feeling very uncomfortable, sour and astringent.
He raised his head and saw Li Chengyan's worried and anxious look, and he didn't know what to answer, so he muttered to himself: "I don't know, I seem to have forgotten something, so sad, has anyone left?"
Li Chengyan frowned deeply. Could it be that... Ning Ning was referring to Major General Lin Rou
Lin Ning struggled to stand up, but almost slipped and fell to the ground because her clothes wet the ground. Li Chengyan subconsciously caught Lin Ning, and Lin Ning also subconsciously fell into Li Chengyan's arms.
Li Chengyan hugged Lin Ning's back tightly with one hand, and pressed Lin Ning's head with the other to press her into the neck, his eyes were cold and gentle. This embrace was too warm, and it instantly soothed Lin Ning's lost heart. Lin Ning blinked and realized that today was his and Li Chengyan's engagement night.
He hugged Li Chengyan back tightly, as if grasping the last warm attachment in this life.
"Cheng Yan, what if one day... I forget you?" Lin Ning's head was in a mess, and she blurted out this sentence subconsciously, with an extremely aggrieved tone.
Li Chengyan was taken aback for a moment, then a faint smile appeared on the corner of his lips, and he whispered in Lin Ning's ear: "Then I have to become a servant to seduce you again."
Lin Ning smiled, and her mood recovered a little: "Then you must not give up on me, if you don't become a servant to tempt me, I'm afraid I'll lose my memory, and I will pick up other small animals at will and go home, that's like coming here The world doesn't make sense anymore..."
Come to this world
Li Chengyan secretly wrote down this sentence, although there were still many doubts in his heart, but now Ning Ning obviously had something on his mind, and he seemed to be in a bad mood, so he didn't plan to ask now.
"I will never give up on you, and you are not allowed to pick up other small animals." Li Chengyan has never been experienced in coaxing people, but he has always been very caring and patient with Lin Ning. He said, "After taking a bath first, go Sleep, or you will get sick."
Lin Ning nodded, and began to take off her clothes obediently. His clothes were soaked with water, and the white shirt was now sticking to his body, revealing a section of pale pink skin. The slender waist can now be seen at a glance. The moment the clothes are taken off, the delicate collarbone and fair upper body all fall into Li Chengyan's eyes.
Li Chengyan turned his head, conscious that he should not be too beastly, and Ning Ning was still sad, he shouldn't have any extravagant thoughts. But the scene in front of him was too lively, colorful, and fragrant, and he used great restraint to barely maintain a trace of decency.
Lin Ning heard the movement behind her, turned her head and saw that Li Chengyan was still there, so she tilted her head, confused, and asked softly, "Do you want to wash too?"
It's a bit like an invitation, Lin Ning thought in a daze.
Everything else would be out of control, Li Chengyan shook his head, opened the door and walked out quickly, then closed the bathroom door forcefully. Soon, his voice came from outside, quiet and solemn, with a bit hoarse and low: "I'll wait for you in the bedroom, call me if you need anything."
Lin Ning: "... Poof."
He was amused by Li Chengyan's reaction, and finally a smile appeared on his face.
Thinking of the slight change in mood here, he also relaxed a lot. Although I don't know why I feel uncomfortable, but isn't tonight his and Li Chengyan's engagement night, he should be happier.
Stepping lightly into the bathtub, the next moment the whole person was submerged in the water, and the warm and slightly scalding water instantly warmed the whole body.
