Chapter 175 - She only has 2% more to go on her halo. (1)

Lu Jue looked at her, still in a daze. He did not comprehend what she was saying, but he heard the very last thing that she said. That Odd Big Sister will die from overworking.

His voice sounded a little anxious. “No die. No die you.”

Ning Zhi purposefully lectured him seriously. “You can’t ask others to bully you if you don’t want me to die from overworking or put yourself in harm’s way. I would need to expense a lot of energy to show up.”

Lu Jue lowered his head. His lips pinched shut, he forced a “Mmm” from his throat.

He couldn’t let Odd Big Sister die.

Seeing the despair on the boy, Ning Zhi said to him, “Besides, I will be sad to see you hurt.”

Holding Lu Jue’s hand, she said to him, “I don’t want you being hurt to be the cost of us seeing each other. If that’s the way it has to be, I’d rather not come and see you.”

Lu Jue was truly worried hearing that Ning Zhi would not come and see him anymore.

The light in his pretty cherry-blossom eyes disappeared and he said nervously, “See me. Need see me.”

Ning Zhi looked at him. “Then you have to promise me that you will not purposefully ask others to bully you in the future or put yourself in harm’s way.”

Lu Jue nodded forcefully. His dull voice filled with seriousness. “Not do me.”

Ning Zhi let out a sigh of relief after she had Lu Jue’s promise.

She looked at the calendar on Lu Jue’s desk. Lu Jue was still a sophomore right now. She remembered that Overload had told her that she should be visiting Lu Jue during his junior year next time.

She decided to give him some incentives. “We will meet again when you are a junior.”

Lu Jue looked up at her.

“Still another 6 months from now. Can you wait for me?” asked Ning Zhi.

Lu Jue’s long lashes quivered, and he said docilely, “Wait for Odd Big Sister.”

Ning Zhi said to him half seriously and half wooing him, “You are still young. If you still like me when you get older, we can be together.”

Lu Jue’s dark black eyes that were looking at Ning Zhi lit up. He had no idea why he needed to grow up. He felt that he was already grown.

He liked Odd Big Sister now.

He wanted to be with Odd Big Sister now.

Reading the perplexity in his eyes, Ning Zhi said, “Not yet. You need to study hard. You need to wait until after the college entrance examination to be in a relationship.”

Ning Zhi reached out her hand and pinched him on his cheek. “As such, stop doing foolish things like asking others to bully you. You need to grow up, learn to protect yourself, before you can be with me.”

Lu Jue understood it this time. Odd Big Sister would be with him after his college entrance examination.*

He agreed with her docilely.

Ning Zhi covered up his eyes with her hand before she stood on her tiptoe and leaned into his ear.

She kissed him gently on the tip of his ear and muttered to him. “Grow up quickly, Xiao Juejue.”

Lu Jue shuddered.

He could see light in front of him the next moment.

The young man in red opened up his eyes and there was nobody in front of him. He lowered his head, and the tips of his ears were still red.

The night was very quiet.

Ning Zhi opened up her eyes and found herself lying on her side, facing Lu Jue.

His eyes and brows were profound under the light and his lips pinched shut slightly. Even his expression in his sleep was so proper. The fringes on his forehead fell down docilely, making him looked childish.

Ning Zhi smiled. She had just parted with the adolescent Lu Jue and now she was in front of the adult one in the blink of an eyes. It was so amazing.

Overlord popped out of nowhere all of a sudden.

It asked Ning Zhi emotionally: [What had you done, Host? I just saw a third new spot appearing just a while ago but then it disappeared all of a sudden.]

The third spot?

It seemed that Xiao Juejue was really going to keep putting himself in harm’s way in exchange of her showing up.

Lucky she noticed it early enough.

“I’ve already taken care of that. There will not be any new spots anymore.”

Overlord wasn’t whether he should feel regretful or happy but, one way or another, he needed to butter up to Ning Zhi.

[Host is so amazing.]

Ning Zhi confirmed with Overlord. “So how many little suns will I need next time?”

Overlord replied eagerly: [Host, you will need 100 little suns.]

Ning Zhi let out a sigh of relief. 100 little suns was no small amount but after spending 200 little suns, that seemed like an easy goal to achieve.
