Chapter 137 As long as he is alive, I don't care
Mu Qingnian remembered... That night, when she fainted from crying, she did not travel directly to this world, but was pulled into a chaotic space. There, she heard a voice, asking her solemnly...
"Do you want to change the ending of Gu Min's death?"
She remembered that she answered without hesitation, "Yes."
"Do you want to change the ending where both your parents died?"
Her eyes instantly brightened. "Yes."
"Even if it costs your life?"
Mu Qingnian was stunned, not quite believing what she had heard. However, the endless silence around her seemed to be silently waiting for her answer...
She heard it right. The price proposed by this mysterious voice was her life...
She suddenly laughed bitterly. She was already in this world, without any worries or the courage to live. If she could use her life to exchange for her parents' peaceful old age, and for the young man who died early to be reborn, then what else would she hesitate about...
"Even if it costs my life, I am willing." Mu Qingnian heard his own firm voice, and in this possibly empty space, he kept thinking about it, loud and clear.
"Okay, then let's sign a contract. I'll help you achieve your wish. And when it comes time to change their life or death, I'll find you."
"Okay, thank you." At that time, after reading the contents of the contract, Mu Qingnian signed his name without hesitation, and then jumped into the current world without hesitation...
The girl raised her head as her memory came back. Her face showed relief and joy, but she didn't have a trace of regret. She asked, "So, how much of my life do you need to take away now?"
The cold voice sounded again, the same as the one I remembered many years ago, "You have prevented your parents from dying unexpectedly. They will die of old age, and your life spans will be extended by a total of approximately 105 years. According to our negotiation, you will pay 10% of the price, which is 10 years and six months."
Mu Qingnian smiled and said, "Then take it." It was so calm, as if they were not talking about her life span, but what to eat tonight.
As soon as she finished speaking, the girl looked at a blue light that slowly floated out from her heart. She was not panicked at all and said calmly, "Can I ask you a question?"
The voice replied quickly, "You say."
"If he avoids death from illness, can he live to a ripe old age?"
"Of course, he is just like your parents. Once this life-and-death crisis is over, everything will be fine."
"That's good." Mu Qingnian closed his eyes with satisfaction and continued to wait for the blue light to fade away.
The life compensation system is an emotionless system, but its observation of humans makes it unable to understand the girl's current emotions. After thinking for a while, it asked, "Why don't you ask how much life I will take away from you when Gu Min survives that catastrophe?"
Mu Qingnian opened her eyes, with tenderness flowing in them, "It's okay, it doesn't matter how much is taken away, as long as he is still alive, I don't care."
The system was still confused. The voice without warmth was filled with a hint of puzzlement. "He was younger when he encountered the life-and-death calamity. The life span he took away from you at that time might be no less than what I am taking away now. Do you really not care?"
Mu Qingnian looked at the lucky bracelet on her hand, with a happy smile on her lips, "I don't care, I will stay with him as long as I can... As long as he is alive..."
If when signing the contract, Mu Qingnian was more regretful about the hasty passing of the man who had warmed her heart, now, he was loyal to his beloved even if he lived or died...
She was willing to protect him with her life...
--------------
Having ten years of life taken away from you would be extremely harmful to anyone. Even though the process of taking away your life would not be too painful with the help of the system, the obvious feeling of weakness after the taking away of your life could not be faked.
The voice said at last, "I'll come back to you when you change his fate next time." Then, Mu Qingnian felt the chaos in front of him gradually dissipate, and the light of the real world slowly penetrated his eyes...
When she opened her eyes, she saw his eyes full of concern, but they looked a little haggard...
When he saw her eyelashes trembling slightly, Gu Min, who had been waiting, stood up suddenly. Seeing that she had finally woken up, he immediately asked, "Niannian, are you awake? How do you feel?"
Mu Qingnian wanted to raise her hand and touch the boy's hair as usual, telling him that she was fine, but with just a slight movement, she felt an unprecedented powerlessness...
It's over... It seems that her condition may not be very good for a while. Her first reaction is... Don't let him find out...
She gave up the action and just smiled brightly, "It's okay, brother, don't worry, I scared you... Where are my parents?"
Gu Min replied softly, "Mom and Dad just went out to buy us food. They should be back soon."
Mu Qingnian said in a cheerful tone, "Ah, now that this is over, I'm a little hungry. Brother, we accomplished something big today, so we have to have a good meal later."
Gu Min rarely responded to the girl's words. He just tucked the quilt for her silently. At this moment, Mu Fengting and Lin Wanru came back. Seeing their daughter wake up, they walked over quickly and asked her if she was feeling unwell.
Mu Qingnian didn't know how Gu Min explained what happened today to his parents, so he secretly asked him with his eyes. Gu Min understood and pretended to be casual, "Niannian, my parents said that you should thank you for this dream. My parents also said that it must be because our family has been doing good deeds, and God couldn't bear to see our family suffer, so he gave you a warning."
Mu Qingnian understood. She didn't expect her parents to find an excuse for her. She couldn't help but relax. Although Mu Qingnian woke up and the doctor said it was nothing serious, Mu Fengting and Lin Wanru still put the food on the small table for her and asked her to eat something before they packed up and went home.
Mu Qingnian was in the quilt, holding her slightly trembling hands. Her intuition told her that if she picked up chopsticks to eat at this time, it would definitely reveal clues. She whispered, "Mom and Dad, I still can't open my eyes. Can I sleep for another half an hour? Then we can go home, okay?"
Mu Fengting and Lin Wanru looked at each other, both with some worry in their eyes, "Niannian, are you still feeling unwell? Can mom and dad go call a doctor to check it out?"
Mu Qingnian hurriedly shook her head, "No, no, mom and dad, I was just exhausted this morning. There shouldn't be any problem with the hospital, right? I just need to sleep for another half an hour, okay?"
Of course the couple would not refuse, "Then Nian Nian, you take a rest first, we will go out to handle the formalities, and when you wake up, we will go out to eat."
"Okay, Mom and Dad!"
After the two turned around and went out, Mu Qingnian saw that Gu Min had no intention of getting up and leaving, so he said, "Brother, you should also go out and rest for a while. You are also very tired today. Go and tell Brother Ruoxing not to worry."
Gu Min, who had been silent just now, suddenly raised his head, stared at the girl, and asked a question in an unquestionable tone.
"Nian Nian, are you feeling unwell? Don't lie to me."
