Having said that, the system remembered the magic weapon that Longlong had just given it, as well as the words he entrusted it to convey.

So he brought it up again, "Oh, by the way, Longlong said he's going to go into seclusion, so you may not see him these two days. Well, don't go to his place unless it's important, he's busy."

He also remembered that the two of them practiced piano together in the evening, so he gave his suggestion.

As for Longlong's words "Don't think about him too much", he said he didn't really want to convey it as it was too disgusting.

Lu Xi couldn't help but stop stroking the cat, and a hint of surprise appeared on her face. "Retreat? Are you sure he's only in retreat for two days?"

It's not that her worry was unnecessary, but in her understanding, orthodox cultivators were different from a rookie like her. She closed her eyes and opened them again, and at most a day or two would pass.

But for someone like Longlong, once he goes into seclusion, the passage of time often becomes blurred. Sometimes, decades pass by in the blink of an eye.

She doesn't want Longlong to go through the same thing. If he were to go into seclusion, everything would change drastically and she would be an old woman by then.

I get goosebumps just thinking about it.

Seeing her like this, the system knew that she had misunderstood, and quickly explained: "Hey, it's not what you think. Longlong's retreat this time is just to study something, not to practice for a long time. If there is an important matter that requires him to come forward, we can also call him out. Don't worry."

If Longlong really intended to practice in seclusion, he would not have chosen this place as the retreat location.

After all, for races with long lifespans, seclusion is often measured in hundreds of years, and they have enough time to settle themselves.

Sometimes, these races just want to take a good nap, and when they wake up, dozens or even hundreds of years may have passed.

This is the gap between species.

Besides, Long Ruilin came here to relax and enjoy life, not to practice in seclusion.

Just like people who go out for a trip, they don’t want to close their eyes and enjoy the journey, only to open their eyes and find that everything around them has changed and time has passed quietly for too long.

After listening to the system's explanation, Lu Xi finally felt relieved and was glad that things were not as she had worried about.

She breathed a sigh of relief and said slowly, "Well, it's good that he is not in seclusion for cultivation. I'm really afraid that he will be in seclusion for decades. Then we really have to wait until the flowers are all withered."

Not to mention the flowers withering, given the current situation on their planet, in some places, seawater will be able to spread across the earth within a few decades. It's truly a world of change.

Just thinking about it, Lu Xi felt that what he was thinking about was a bit too heavy, so he decided to change the subject.

She shifted her gaze to the system, the corners of her mouth lifted unconsciously, and continued: "Actually, you were away these past two days, and I missed you a lot. I always felt like something was missing around me."

Upon hearing this, the system's eyes flashed with surprise, but then it regained its composure. It asked jokingly, "Really? I'll have to think about this carefully. Are you kidding me?"

He was very skeptical about what Lu Xi said.

After all, although Lu Xi's daily pace of life is leisurely, she hardly ever thinks about unimportant things.

In her opinion, the matter of the system going to the meeting should fall into the category of "unnecessary considerations".

He will come back after the meeting, or there is a tiny chance that he will not come back. It is an inevitable outcome. There is nothing to think about.

The system is well aware of this and is very self-aware. This suspicion is not groundless, but is based on his keen observation of Lu Xi's daily behavior and attitude.

In this family, if you ask who knows Lu Xi best, he would dare to say that he is the best.

Lu Xi saw that his reaction showed that he didn't believe her, so she responded confidently: "Of course, there is a big difference between when you are here and when you are not."

She paused for a moment, a trace of emotion in her eyes, and continued, "When eating, I habitually look at the seat where you usually sit, or want to add a dish for you; when I encounter something and want to discuss it, I suddenly realize that you, who always give me advice, are not around.

This feeling, don't mention how uncomfortable it makes me. Normally when you are by my side every day, I may not feel it too obviously, but once you are gone, I deeply feel that my life seems to be missing a piece, and my heart is empty. "

This is like the very popular plot nowadays, where you don’t know how to cherish what you have until you lose it.

But in fact, although Lu Xi's words seemed to be expressing her true feelings, they were all made up on the spot. There were times when she really missed the system, but they were not these warm moments.

For example, when she needed someone to help her get something downstairs, there was no one to run errands; for another example, when it was time to rush to buy a favorite item, her hand speed and Internet speed could not keep up, and then she began to miss the system.

However, there is no need to say these words. If the system hears it, it will definitely get furious and ignore you for three days.

By then she won't even have anywhere to cry.

The system felt a little embarrassed by Lu Xi's sincere words. It didn't expect that it had been thinking wrong before. It turned out that its host still missed it very much.

He gently covered his face with his hands, a shy blush appeared on his face, and his voice became a little coquettish: "Oh, you make me feel embarrassed. I thought you only thought of me when I could help you. It turns out that you are really not used to not having me by your side."

Lu Xi looked at the shy look of the system and couldn't help but feel a little guilty, but this feeling was not strong and did not show on her face at all.

I didn’t expect the system was right. I only thought of it when I needed it.

We really understand each other quite well.

Lu Xi calmed down her emotional fluctuations, smiled at her own silly and cheerful system, and said gently: "After all, we have been together for such a long time. I am really not used to it without you by my side."

Having said that, Lu Xi changed the subject and a sly smile appeared on her face.

"By the way, there will be a concert ticket sale tomorrow at 12 o'clock. Can you help me grab some? Without some technology, it's really hard to grab these tickets. You're the only one in our family who has this skill."
