I Raised A Sick And Weak Prince
Chapter 59
"After the curtains appeared on your side, you could also receive missions?
Wait, the interface on your side is actually my home?
When you first saw me, I was also a cartoon character with short arms and legs?
… No, tell me clearly, you've already learned English during this time?
I $# ^ y $#!! "
"Don't say it yet, let me take a breather —" After Su Xi asked about the situation on Lu Huan's side in detail, she was completely confused.
Originally, he thought that it was already incredible that a game that could connect to the ancient Yan Kingdom would appear on his mobile phone. But now, there was something even more shocking. The thing that appeared on Zaizai's side, which he called a "curtain," was clearly an enlarged mobile phone screen on his side!
In other words, this system was actually two-sided. The functions of Zaizai's system were no different from her own!
It was even more advanced — after all, the curtain on his side was transparent, and she couldn't see it!
Although she guessed that Zaizai should be able to see her after the physical examination, she never thought that it would be like this.
Now, this game might not be called a game anymore, but a system bridge that connected the two dynasties.
Su Xi sat down on the bed and was stunned for a long time before she slowly figured out the logic behind it.
If she told others about this, they would definitely think that it was a fantasy. Who would believe that she, Su Xi, had only clicked on a mobile game to pass time and sent the protagonist to the throne. Later, the mobile game became a real world, and now, the same device appeared in Zaizai's world.
However, from the very beginning, this game could only appear on Su Xi's phone and could not be downloaded from other people's phones. This was already an illogical thing. Therefore, no matter what happened now, after Su Xi recovered from the shock, he was able to digest it with a strong self-healing ability.
After accepting this matter, Su Xi looked at the handsome Zaizai on the screen again and felt — how was this still a game? This had turned into a video chat, right?!
Su Xi felt that it was very magical, but she was still very unconvinced. She said to Zaizai, "Take out the English test paper, I want to see how many points you can get."
Lu Huan was worried that Su Xi would find out that she could see Su Xi. Su Xi would treat it as a burden and discomfort, so Su Xi would ignore her forever. Hence, she didn't dare to let Su Xi find out.
But now that he carefully looked at her expression, he found that although she was shocked, she didn't have any intention of cutting off the connection between the two of them, so he was relieved.
He turned around and pulled out the paper he had used to answer questions a few days ago from his luggage. He spread it out on the straw in the tent and asked amusedly, "Are you going to give me a score?"
"Yes, don't be happy too early. You might fail!" Su Xi poured cold water on Zaizai.
Zai Zai didn't mind. He looked at her behind the curtain with his hands behind his back and said with a smile, "I also answered the other questions. You can calculate my score for me. Maybe I can squeeze into the top ten of your grade."
Su Xi was confused once again. "You even know what the top ten means?!"
Zaizai smiled and didn't say anything. She dug out the notes she had learned about her dynasty through self-study in the past six months.
He already understood the meaning of many words, but there were some habits he couldn't get rid of. For example, he subconsciously said "school" as "school".
He put the thick stack of neatly written notes on the straw pile and looked up at Su Xi. His dark eyes were very bright, and there was a hint of pride in his expression, as if he was asking for praise.
This magical scene made Su Xi feel uncomfortable. Her brain crashed as she went to correct Zaizai's English homework.
After the exam, the teachers of each subject distributed the answers and asked them to go home on the weekend to compare the answers by themselves. Hence, she graded Zaizai's English homework with the answers of "abc". She was very fast.
After the final score was calculated, Su Xi stood in front of his desk, completely dumbfounded — —
Out of the 150 points paper, 30 points for listening and 25 points for writing. Except for these two parts, Zaizai had answered all the other fill-in-the-blank questions. And his answer was actually 95 points!
In other words, he had answered all the questions correctly?!!
Even she couldn't get all the questions right. She made two mistakes in cloze.
Su Xi looked at Zaizai on the screen in horror.
Seeing her look over, Zaizai seemed to inadvertently raise his head and curl his lips.
Su Xi only felt that her worldview had collapsed and reshaped again!
Although she already knew that Zaizai was very smart when she accompanied him into the imperial court officialdom!
But in the past few months, he had been so busy with military affairs. Every time she went online, she saw that he was so busy that he didn't even have time to take a sip of tea. How did he manage to squeeze out time to learn English, history, and other subjects in this world under such circumstances??!!
Could it be that this was the legendary Chosen One?!
Su Xi sighed and felt sour in her heart. She deliberately ignored Zaizai's sparkling eyes that were asking for praise and drank a sip of coke to calm her nerves.
"What are you drinking?"
Finally, she didn't have to hide it anymore and could see his side. The young man on the screen had a strong thirst for knowledge.
Su Xi shook the soda in her hand and said vaguely, "Coke, a kind of carbonated drink."
Lu Huan thought for a moment and asked, "When I saw you and your friend after school today, this word also appeared in the book in her hand. What does' buy coke 'mean?"
Su Xi almost spat out the coke in her mouth. She said angrily, "Don't read those books that Gu Qin reads in the future!"
"… Why?" Zaizai was stunned.
Su Xi was already frantically scratching her head in her heart. She decided to find a chance to talk to Gu Qin and tell her not to read those pornographic books when she was with her. She also told Huo Jingchuan to restrain himself and not speak without thinking when he was around her.
Zaizai was from ancient times. He was reserved, clean, and polite. He would be led astray by those two later!
But even if they weren't her two good friends, Su Xi still felt a headache when she thought of the ubiquitous Internet cafes, game halls, KTVs, and other music venues in modern society, as well as the soap operas in TV series.
It's over. If Zaizai was contaminated by these things for a long time, would he still be the spotless Zaizai?!
She said to Zaizai, "There are good and bad cultures in my dynasty. You have to take the essence and get rid of the dregs.
Those books that Gu Qin read are the dregs! "
Lu Huan wanted to say something, but Su Xi immediately said, "It's like if you don't let me go to the brothel. If you read Gu Qin's books again, I'll go to the brothel when you're not paying attention!
I'll go to the Ministry of War's bathhouse! "
"You dare!" Zaizai's face immediately darkened on the screen.
Su Xi chuckled, "Let's see if I dare."
Lu Huan, "…"
Separated by a screen, he couldn't stop her from doing anything. Lu Huan was a little depressed.
Su Xi's gaze fell back to the thick and dense handwriting about modern civilization. She flipped through the screen and found that Zaizai's records were very detailed.
It included "How to Use Public Buses", "Records of Household Items such as Faucets and Heating Lamps", "Detailed Explanation of Underground Carriage Routes", and so on.
"Public Buses", "Heating Lamps", these terms were completely unfamiliar to Zaizai, not to mention the ways to use these things and the complicated transportation routes of the city's subway.
However, Zaizai spent a lot of effort lighting candles and carefully studying these things bit by bit.
No wonder every time Su Xi went online during that time, she felt as if Zaizai hadn't slept for a long time. There was always a patch of green under his eyes.
He studied these things so that he could communicate better with her.
He should be very frightened when facing her new world, but he didn't reject it. Instead, he worked hard to integrate.
Su Xi's heart softened …
Although they had a tacit understanding, she wanted to see Zaizai in the same time and space, and Zaizai also wanted to see her in the same time and space. The two of them had the same wish.
Perhaps this wish would never be realized.
But when she saw that she hadn't moved a single step, and he was already at a place where she couldn't see him, silently using all his strength to take ninety-nine steps towards her … Her heart couldn't help but ripple … ….
Su Xi couldn't help but look at Lu Huan on the screen. He was still depressed and even a little angry because she said that she wanted to go to the Ministry of War to peek at a man taking a shower. She couldn't help but smile.
Lu Huan didn't know why she was smiling, but in the curtain, the light from the table lamp fell on the side of her face, outlining her soft facial features. Lu Huan couldn't help but look at her face. Gradually, as if he was infected, the gloominess in his dark eyes gradually faded, and the corners of his eyes and brows were tinged with an inexplicable joy.
This was the first time the two of them looked at each other seriously.
Both sides were quiet.
Su Xi closed the door, and only the music from her phone flowed quietly. It was late at night on Lu Huan's side. The moon was high in the sky, and only the sound of the wind could be heard outside the tent.
This feeling was hard to describe. The moons on both sides didn't seem to be different, but they also seemed to be thousands of miles apart.
In a trance, the two of them seemed to be in the same time and space, so close that they could touch each other. But they also clearly knew that the so-called touch was just an illusion. Nearly a thousand years of time couldn't be crossed so easily.
They didn't know how many seconds they looked at each other, but Su Xi gradually felt that the air had become strange.
Her ears inexplicably felt a little hot. She couldn't help but scratch her head and look away, stopping this inexplicable staring at each other. She coughed and said dryly, "I have to do my homework."
Lu Huan's face was also a little red. He nodded and said, "I'll go too. I still have some military affairs to deal with."
Ten minutes passed, and the two of them didn't seem to be in the mood.
Su Xi felt awkward sitting on the chair.
In the past, she used to turn on her phone screen and study hard with the bun-faced Zai Zai. She would do her homework under the table lamp, and Zai Zai would read Sun Tzu's The Art of War under the candlelight. It felt very warm.
But now, why did she feel nervous all over? For a moment, she felt that her face was hot and couldn't help but rub her face. For a moment, she was distracted and felt that the room was too messy. It was too embarrassing to be seen. Should she tidy it up?
And Lu Huan on the screen was the same. Although she was behind the curtain, she looked very close. She even looked up at him from time to time.
The military intelligence in front of him didn't turn a page for a long time.
Su Xi felt her mouth and tongue dry. It was fine that Zai Zai couldn't see her before, but now, why was she doing her homework while video-chatting with Lu Huan?
She couldn't help but say, "Do you want me to go offline?"
After Su Xi's explanation, Lu Huan already knew that "going offline" meant leaving.
The young man on the screen paused. He looked up, pursed his lips, and said good-naturedly, "Up to you."
But after he said this, his eyes immediately showed a fan-shaped expression that was 30% resentment and 70% disappointment.
Su Xi, "…"
This time, there was no need for any desolate leaves to appear on top of his head. She could understand what he meant. Damn!
After Su Xi knew that Zai Zai could see her, she couldn't help but be very concerned about her image. The next day was the weekend. As usual, Su Xi went out to eat with her two childhood friends.
Gu Qin and Huo Jingchuan grew up with her, so they couldn't be more familiar with each other. If it were in the past, she would have just worn a cap and a simple white T-shirt. But today, she didn't know what she was thinking. She suddenly wanted to wear a nicer dress …
This way, she wouldn't be wearing a baggy school uniform all day long on Lu Huan's side …
Su Xi quickly stopped her thoughts. She desperately told herself that wearing a nicer dress was just for her own happiness. What did it have to do with a young man from another era who might not understand modern aesthetics?!
However, her body still ran to open the wardrobe very honestly. She carefully selected a few dresses and gestured in front of her.
Last night, when Su Xi fell asleep, Lu Huan stayed with the lights on for a long time.
Today, it was only morning on Su Xi's side, but the sun was already setting on Lu Huan's side.
When he saw her choosing clothes in front of the mirror, he subconsciously remembered that there was a saying in an ancient book that a woman would dress up for her lover.
His eyelids twitched involuntarily as he asked, "Xiao Xi, are you going out to meet someone today?"
Su Xi didn't open the game on her phone, so she couldn't see his question.
However, Su Xi received a text message on her phone. Su Xi walked to the desk and swiped open the text message.
She looked up at the sky and felt that Zaizai should be in a hurry right now. He probably didn't have time to come online. She quickly replied to her mother's text message.
Mother Su: "Our family and Huo Jingchuan's family are going to a restaurant for lunch at noon. Mom won't be going home to cook. Remember to change your clothes. I'll send you the address later. You can come by yourself."
The Su family and Huo Jingchuan lived in the same neighborhood. Mother Su and Mother Huo were good sisters. The two of them had treated Su Xi and Huo Jingchuan as a pair since they were young.
Every few months, the two families would have a meal together as a routine. This was also something that Su Xi and Huo Jingchuan were used to.
Su Xi sent a text message: "But I've already made an appointment with Gu Qin."
Mother Su: "If you two want to buy anything, you can go tomorrow. Today, we're going to eat with your Uncle Huo's family. I heard that starting from next semester, some schools will enroll students on their own. Today, we'll discuss which city and which university you and Xiao Chuan will go to so that you can study for the winter break.
Your aunt and I plan to let the two of you participate in some independent enrolment of some schools together. Since your grades are similar, you can take care of each other when you get into the same university in the future. "
Su Xi thought to herself that her mother was at it again. Every time she and Huo Jingchuan were forced to be a couple by their parents, she wanted to roll her eyes.
However, Huo Jingchuan was always sneaky and didn't refute them. Instead, he kicked the ball to her.
Su Xi quickly replied: "Why do you insist that I go to the same university as Huo Jingchuan?"
Mother Su: "If you go to a university in another province, your health won't be good either. You've always been unlucky to get sick since you were young. Isn't it good to have someone to take care of you? Our families know each other very well."
Su Xi didn't know how to reply. She and Huo Jingchuan had heard these words hundreds of times since they were young. Their mothers were best friends, so they enthusiastically arranged a marriage between the two of them when they were young.
When the two of them grew up, Mother Su and Mother Huo were a little anxious when they saw that the two of them disliked each other.
She threw the clothes back on the bed and didn't reply. However, Mother Su reminded her again: "Come on time."
Su Xi frowned for a long time. She had no choice but to call Gu Qin and tell him that she had something to do at home today. After hanging up the phone, she sighed and went to the entrance to change her shoes.
On the other side of the screen, Lu Huan's face turned completely pale.
He hadn't confessed to her yet, and he hadn't completed all the missions to accumulate 200 points as soon as possible. Moreover, she only had feelings for him as if he was a child. There were no signs of him being enlightened at all. On her side, her mother was going to arrange a blind date for her?!
Was it a blind date?
Lu Huan couldn't figure out the meaning of Mother Su's words just now.
Not only was Mother Su's attitude like this, but Xiao Xi even specially dressed up for that boy …?
She was walking around in front of the mirror with a face full of anticipation just now.
Lu Huan clenched his fists. He only felt a buzzing sound in his ears and an overwhelming sense of crisis fell in his heart.
After calming himself down, Lu Huan jumped onto the back of the horse and ordered the soldier beside him to go and advise the General of Zhenyuan to return to the capital as soon as possible. He had to complete the mission as soon as possible.
On the other hand, he opened the location where Su Xi's parents worked from the screen and started to understand their preferences.
He saw that Mother Su was buying fruits at the market with a good friend. She seemed to be saying, "Why are cherries so expensive now?"
Lu Huan suddenly had an idea. He took out banknotes and exchanged them for ten baskets of the freshest cherries from the mall. He sent them to Mother Su's work location.
His expression was solemn. He decided that he had to catch both sides and forcefully catch them. It was also time to move forward with Xiao Xi's parents.
