Your Grandma Loves Me Too Much (2)
Jiang Xiaoman frowned; she couldn’t figure out the web of relationships.
Well, it’s fine if she didn’t. All she had to do for now was to be obedient. After all, adults always had these strange and weird rules. Children weren’t as troublesome.
She was more concerned about something else.
“Yu Qingshi and I planned to do his homework at his home next weekend, can I still go?” She was afraid that Grandma wouldn’t let her.
“Yes, it’s fine.”
Jiang Xiumei gave her permission, and Jiang Xiaoman cheered happily.
As for the rest, that was not something she needed to worry about, as long as she was happy.
–
At night, when she was about to sleep, she hugged the pillow as usual and waited for Brother System to tell her a story. But after waiting for a long time, the system still was not saying anything.
It was abnormally silent, not communicating with Jiang Xiaoman.
Lately, other than the cold voice it made when issuing tasks, the system did not make a lot of fuss. It felt as if it had grown up overnight. Jiang Xiaoman was very pleased and relieved. But even until now, it still hadn’t spoken a word. It seemed like something was wrong.
She curiously called it a few times before the system finally replied. “I’m not going to tell stories anymore.”
“Why? The story with the little baby last time isn’t finished yet.”
“I’m going to let things develop freely.” It wasn’t the cold mechanical voice, but a pitiful tone instead. Only when it was bugged or anxious would it emit electrical sounds. Jiang Xiaoman couldn’t figure out how it felt right now.
The system said, “I can’t handle it anymore.”
Jiang Xiaoman frowned and defended herself, “I’m very obedient and reasonable. Why aren’t you telling me stories? Aren’t we good friends?”
“The relationship has crumbled.”
“Oh.” Jiang Xiaoman answered unhappily.
She knew what a crumbling relationship meant.
She occasionally grabbed the remote when Grandma was watching TV.
Their small, old TV in the previous house looked like it would get blown away whenever there was rain or thunder. Other than Xiaoman’s favorite Monkey King, it also showed some family dramas.
Grandma liked watching those kinds of dramas the most.
Generally, it would have a family of a young couple and a mother-in-law.
The mother-in-law would intervene with the young couple’s relationship and cause trouble here and there. In the end, the young couple wouldn’t be able to stand it anymore and their relationship crumbled; they would want to divorce. Jiang Xiaoman couldn’t understand the story and thought that it was too noisy, but Grandma liked it very much and watched very enthusiastically.
What the young couple on TV said was very similar to what the system was saying.
How should she answer? Should she say that she wanted a divorce?
Jiang Xiaoman hesitated for a while, then decided not to answer this question. Because the young couple on TV who wanted to divorce due to their crumbling relationship never succeeded.
Maybe the system was like that as well.
They would always be good friends, and the system couldn’t leave her anyway.
Jiang Xiaoman kept to her heart and soon went to bed happily.
If the system knew what she was thinking, it would probably get so angry it would materialize.
It didn’t say that to its host to cause trouble or threaten her. It really planned to take its hands off and let things develop naturally.
The system really didn’t take it to heart.
Couldn’t find her real parents? It didn’t matter. The host wasn’t blackening? It didn’t matter. The will of the world would follow the proper scenario.
When the time came, the people who should meet would meet again, and things that should happen would happen.
If the system got too anxious, it would only shorten its own lifespan.
Anyways, it had been with Jiang Xiaoman for a long time. If anything, the system had learnt from Jiang Xiaoman to be good to oneself, to take things easy and to not compete with oneself. This was an important regiment to maintain one’s health, and it had learnt really well from her. After all, its host was very good at misinterpreting what it said, and always came up with an outrageous solution to treat herself well and take things easy.
As a system, it should just follow its host’s footsteps.
It slowly gave her tasks and waited for her to pay her debt. When the time came to upgrade then it would upgrade, and when the time came to do something it would make do somehow.
Everything that must be there would be there.
The system would become like a Buddhist.
What else could it do otherwise?
Surviving up till this point, it could only tell itself to be more open and rejoiceful.
