Married to the Male Lead's Brother
Chapter 48
Back in the present, Ningzhi sighed and felt a little sour in her heart. This time, she could clearly feel that the young Lu Jue had become attached to her.
Ningzhi turned around. Suddenly, the coat she had placed in Little Lu Joe's hands was back on her bed.
She had forgotten about its existence when she asked Lu Jue to hold it for her. She didn't expect it to follow her back.
Ningzhi was a little curious. She called out to Overlord.
"I forgot my coat over there, but it came back on its own."
Overlord told her: [Master, even if you bring the thing over there and leave it there, as long as you come back, the thing will disappear over there and come back.]
"What if I want to bring the thing over there back?"
Overlord: [That's impossible. The moment you disappear, the thing will only stay there.]
Actually, Ningzhi had guessed it. Just like last time, Lu Jue had put a rose on her head. When she came back, there was no flower on her head.
At this moment, Overlord suddenly received a new mission. It was a little surprised.
Overlord was a little hesitant. It stammered: [Master, you need to work hard to earn Little Suns.]
Ningzhi was puzzled. "What's wrong?"
Overlord's little voice trembled. It was a little nervous and afraid of being scolded: [The program has been updated. The next time you go back, you will need to consume 200 Little Suns.]
Ningzhi was speechless.
She took a deep breath. "I seriously suspect that you're an unscrupulous merchant."
Ningzhi questioned it. "Didn't you say that this time there was an extra time point and that I would only need to consume 100 Little Suns the next time I go back?"
Overlord was aggrieved: [Master, I don't know why there's a new time point. This doesn't fit Lu Jue's growth timeline.]
Ningzhi: "If you don't know, then I don't know either!"
She snorted. "I'm starting to wonder if you've swallowed all these little suns."
Every time they exchanged suns, she could hear Overlord's childish voice become excited. She could also hear him swallowing his saliva as if he was craving for it.
Overlord hurriedly explained, [Master, I'm not lying to you. Maybe Master accidentally changed something when he transmigrated back, so there are suddenly two new time points.]
Ningzhi: "Haven't I been changing all the time?"
Overlord's tone became cautious. [I'm not referring to the matter of saving Lu Jue. Perhaps, Master, you triggered something.]
Ningzhi was deep in thought. She didn't notice anything wrong.
The next day, the sky had already brightened. The warm sun had already shone through the floor-to-ceiling glass and into the room, filling the room with soft light.
As soon as Ningzhi opened her eyes, she saw that Lu Jue was already awake.
He lay on his side, watching her quietly.
"Morning."
Ningzhi rubbed her eyes. She didn't sleep well last night. In her dreams, Lu Jue was calling her weird sister.
When Lu Jue saw that Ningzhi was awake, he took the initiative to move closer to her. His deep voice was a little hoarse. "Morning."
Lu Jue was young and inexperienced when he was a teenager. Now, Lu Jue's eyes were deep, but his gaze was still clean. Nothing had changed.
If one really wanted to find out what had changed, it could only be said that Lu Jue was now taller and had a better figure. There was a sense of contradiction between a teenager and a mature man.
Especially now that he was sitting up, the collar of his fancy pajamas was wide open, revealing the faint lines of his chest. Ningzhi didn't need to look. She could imagine his well-proportioned chest muscles. It was a thin layer, but it was full of strength and explosive power.
Indeed, it made people want to tear apart his fancy pajamas and touch him.
Ningzhi's face heated up, and she hurriedly stopped her dirty thoughts.
She didn't know if it was because she had too much contact with Lu Jue, but she also had more thoughts that she shouldn't have. When she met Lu Jue's clean gaze, she suddenly felt that she had committed a grave sin.
Ever since they were chased out of the Lu family, Lin Tien-tien and Lu Changshen temporarily moved to a villa closer to the Lu family. This was a property that Lu Changshen had bought not long ago.
Lu Changshen had already rushed to the company. Father Lu and Mother Lu were still angry because of her.
In addition, Mother Lu had just undergone surgery and needed to recuperate. Father Lu accompanied her, and the company's matters were temporarily handed over to Lu Changshen.
He wanted to achieve good results to appease his parents.
Lin Tien-tien sat on the bed with a terrible expression. She was woken up with a start.
She had another dream about Xiao Yuzhang last night.
This time, her dream was much clearer. It wasn't like before, when she could only see Ningzhi's appearance clearly. Everyone else's appearance was blurry.
