The Chosen System: Counterattack with Husband

When he opened his eyes again, Xu Yiyu found that she had returned to her room.

She turned her head and looked out the window. It was already dawn and it was the next day.

Xu Yiyu sat up from the bed, propped himself up, and stared at the scene in front of him, without moving for a long while.

The aftereffects of this dream were so strong that she could still remember every detail clearly.

She was now extremely grateful in her heart that she had met her own Tongzi in this time and space, otherwise she would have really let the important people around her experience the pain just like in the dream.

Xu Yiyu grabbed his phone and checked the time. It was 9:3 a.m. on September 6rd, local time.

After putting down the phone, she closed her eyes and let out a long breath. Thinking that she would not be able to sleep, she simply got out of bed, washed up, and checked the luggage she needed to take to Domiti today. She put on the clothes she had prepared before going to bed last night, without any makeup, and went downstairs with the recorder that contained Marco's recording evidence.

As soon as he walked downstairs along the luxurious staircase, Xu Yiyu saw the manor's butler pushing something towards the restaurant.

"Mr. Butler, please stay."

Seeing that the butler was walking hurriedly and seemed to be busy, Xu Yiyu hurriedly trotted forward and called him.

"Good morning, Miss Xu. It's still early, won't you rest a little longer?"

Although the butler was indeed preparing to go to the restaurant to work, he still stopped politely, put one hand on his chest, and bowed politely to Xu Yiyu.

"No, no, I'm sorry to bother you so early. This is what I told you yesterday I needed to give to Mr. Angelo and the gentlemen of the Presbyterian Church. It's not convenient for me to deliver it in person today, so I'll have to trouble you to pass it on to me as soon as possible."

After handing the recorder to the housekeeper, Xu Yiyu emphasized the importance of the recorder. The housekeeper did not give her a perfunctory response, but carefully put the recorder close to his body.

"Don't worry, Miss Xu. After you and your friends leave, I will go to the Elders' Council in person and personally deliver the things to the clan leader."

"Then I'm sorry to trouble you."

Xu Yiyu saw that the butler was busy at the moment, so he didn't disturb him anymore. Instead, he opened the door on his own and planned to go to the front yard to get some fresh air in the early morning.

"Just now, one of your friends, Miss Xu Cheng, also got up. She should be walking in the front yard now. I won't disturb you two for now."

The housekeeper bowed to Xu Yiyu again, told her where Xu Cheng was, and continued to push the things in his hands towards the restaurant.

As soon as Xu Yiyu opened the door, she saw her sister sitting by the fountain wearing a coat, and she walked towards her with a smile.

When I got closer, I found that Xu Cheng was staring at the sky in a daze, his eyes were empty and calm, as if he was thinking about something, but also seemed to be thinking about nothing.

Her beautiful and heroic facial features were exceptionally soft at this moment, completely losing the boldness and sharpness that she showed in front of outsiders.

"Benjia, you're awake."

"Well, I couldn't sleep, so I came out to get some fresh air."

When Xu Yiyu gently sat down next to Xu Cheng, she turned her head and smiled at Xu Yiyu, with a hint of tiredness in her eyes.

Seeing Xu Cheng who was completely different from before, Xu Yiyu did not dare to disturb her. He just sat side by side with her, looking into the distance at the sky where no sunlight could be seen today.

It was only now that Xu Yiyu realized that although this sister was a little younger than him, she had been bound to the system for more than two years.

The two of them stayed together quietly for a while before Xu Yiyu spoke softly.

"Benjia, I had a very real dream last night."

"Dream? What kind of dream?"

Xu Cheng ended his free time and turned around to ask.

"I dreamed that I was in a parallel universe and that I was not lucky enough to meet Tongzi on the day of the car accident."

When she slowly expressed her dream in a voice that only the two of them could hear, Xu Yiyu felt a pain in her heart as if she had been hit by a blunt object countless times.

Xu Cheng did not interrupt, but listened quietly to Xu Yi Yu's description of the dream.

When Xu Yiyu finished her last word, Xu Cheng opened his arms and gently hugged his cousin, whom he had not known for very long, but he did not say any words to comfort her.

She understood too well what Xu Yiyu was feeling deep down, because it was not just Xu Yiyu. She had also had a similar dream not long after she had bound herself to this system.

The Chosen System listened quietly to its host's narration of the dream in its heart and remained silent for a very long time.

At this moment, it was extremely grateful that it had arrived by its host's side in time that day, preventing her from experiencing everything in her dream last night.

How could a host who has such a soft and warm heart, yet is also equally sensitive, want those important people around her to experience such pain?

Xu Yiyu did not reject Xu Cheng's hug. She just buried her head in Xu Cheng's shoulder, silently calming her inner turmoil.

Although it didn't really happen, the things in the dream were indeed the things she was most afraid of happening.

The person who leaves first will never feel the pain of the person who stays behind.

Not long after, Xu Yiyu raised his hand, patted Xu Cheng on the back, and made a naughty joke.

"Alright, my dear, emo time is over. Thank you."

Xu Cheng let go of Xu Yiyu and looked at the sister in front of him who had a gentle expression but no sadness in her eyes, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

In this world, she could only show this side of herself in front of him.

Xu Cheng didn't need to say anything. She just needed to provide support to her sisters at the right time.

"We're leaving for Domiti at 9 o'clock. How does it feel?"

"To be honest, I still find it unreal to be on a treasure hunt with so many people."

Even though Xu Yiyu felt that saying this would sound ridiculous, he still did not hide it from Xu Cheng.

After all, from the perspective of outsiders, all of this was initiated by her, Xu. Regardless of whether others were ready or not, she, as the leader, should have made all preparations long ago.

Whether it is material preparation or psychological preparation.

"I understand. We were all just ordinary people once. We just happened to get this great opportunity. The ordinary self is still hidden in our hearts."

"Yes, everything I've experienced in the past two months, although all the processes were driven by my own efforts, sometimes I still have this indescribable feeling of unreality as I did today. I feel like all of this is just a dream that I imagined."

As perhaps one of the only two humans on Blue Planet who possesses a binding system, Xu Yiyu's subtle feelings in his heart can only be understood by Xu Cheng.

Even Lu Sanshi, as a lover, sometimes could not understand the sudden feeling of loneliness that welled up in his heart.

"My dear, do you sometimes doubt whether you are qualified for this opportunity?"

"Don't doubt it, just believe that since you already have it, you definitely deserve it."

Xu Cheng's words made Xu Yiyu's eyes brighter, and the confusion in his eyes also dissipated a lot.

In Xu Yiyu's consciousness world, the Chosen System looked at the host that it had been bound to for just over two months, and silently added a sentence in its own data stream.

All the wealth, all the hard money, cannot compare to your warm and soft heart.
