God's Gift

Lu Keming was not satisfied with Yu Youyou's answer. He looked at Yu Youyou's eyes, which were as clean and bright as a deer, and forced a smile at the corner of his mouth.

Those eyes were like a clear spring, without any impurities or more emotions.

Lu Keming loosened his clenched hands, held up Yu Youyou's face with his thin white hands, and stared at her straight.

Now he has fallen into the river of desire, tasted all the greed, ignorance, anger and jealousy in the world, and turned into a green-faced and fanged evil ghost, staring at her ferociously and greedily. Only by swallowing her in his stomach can he satisfy the endless desire in his heart.

But she still stood on the shore, looking at him innocently.

Lu Keming took a deep breath, raised his eyes and looked at Yu Youyou, rubbing his thumb on her face anxiously, and said with a gentle smile: "Okay."

He didn't ask about the engagement, and judging by Youyou's expression, she probably didn't know about it.

Then he wouldn't bother her with such things.

After all, this is just something that will never happen.

There was a hint of coldness in Lu Keming's eyes, and the corners of his mouth curled up in a subtle arc. He put down his hand that was on Yu Youyou's face and said to her, "Go, we'll see you in the trial."

Yu Youyou responded with a smile, nodded, turned around and ran towards the hibernation cabin.

Lu Keming watched as Yu Youyou's hibernation cabin door closed, then he turned around and walked towards the Blue Dragon hibernation cabin.

The fake gentle smile on his face disappeared, his eyes darkened, and the hand that was stroking Yu Youyou's cheek pinched it twice.

She doesn't understand yet, but that's okay.

He can wait.

At this time, Yu Youyou, who was already in the hibernation capsule, looked at the intelligent brain trial interface, scratched his head in confusion, and muttered in confusion: "Huh?"

[Trial: The City That Never Sleeps]

[Mode: Experiencer Mode]

This trial only had these two simple lines of text, no extra introduction, and even the task interface was blank. And there was only the experience mode, and there was no character option on the interface.

Yu Youyou stared at the intelligent computer interface and pursed her lips.

The students in other hibernation capsules also discovered this problem, but before they had time to ask, the intelligent computer had already automatically started teleporting.

On the 15th day of the eighth month, the city of Suzhou is crowded with cars and horses, the streets are filled with silk and satin, the pavilions and terraces are decorated with lanterns and colorful lights, and all the shops in the city sell new wine. It is only noon at this time, and the night market is not open. People sit opposite each other in the restaurants and drink, and children wear new clothes and play on the streets.

Ships were coming and going in the canal. A passenger ship stopped at the shore, creating ripples on the water.

Not long after, a girl of about thirteen or fourteen years old walked down from the boat. She had double buns with a few blue pearl flowers in her hair, a red flower ornament on her forehead, a blue collared shirt, a pearl shawl and a light yellow cape on her shoulders, and a white folded skirt, dressed like a lady from a noble family.

A little maid came up behind her, held her hand, and slowly led her to the bottom of the boat, saying softly, "Miss, please walk slowly. You fell a few days ago, and your leg injury has not healed yet."

The young lady they were leading was holding a bunch of unknown wild flowers, looking around with her lively eyes. When she heard the maid's instructions, she laughed cheerfully and replied, "It's okay, I don't feel any pain at all."

"Young lady, you are a beautiful lady. It would not look good if you were left with a scar." The maid spoke softly with some worry in her eyes.

"When we get to the general's mansion, if the general finds that Miss is injured, I'm afraid he will blame me for not taking good care of her."

Yu Youyou listened to the maid's mumbling, rolled her eyes twice, and immediately said, "Then I'm ready now."

After saying that, she raised her foot and shook it twice in front of the maid, indicating that there was nothing wrong with her.

The maid saw her behavior and was about to stop her, but a middle-aged man came up and asked respectfully, "Excuse me, is this the cousin who came to visit the general's mansion, Yu Lanshu?"

"Yes." Yu Youyou reacted quickly, nodded to the housekeeper, and said, "My nickname is Youyou, you can call me Youyou."

The butler smiled respectfully and said, "Miss Youyou, I am the butler of the general's mansion. The general asked me to come here to pick you up. Please follow me."

Yu Youyou nodded and followed the housekeeper. When she reached the sedan chair, she lifted her skirt and climbed onto it in two steps. She turned around and stood on the sedan chair, extending her hand to the maid, "I'll hold your hand, Chunci."

Watching Yu Youyou's actions, the housekeeper's gaze shifted to Chunci, with a scrutinizing look in his eyes.

"Miss, this is against the rules." The young lady has always done what she wants. When Chunci served her before, she could not resist her and was often dragged by her to ride in the sedan chair. But now that she has arrived at the general's mansion, Chunci can no longer do so casually.

"I don't know the rules." Yu Youyou snorted, waved her hand casually, reached out and grabbed Chunci, pulling her into the sedan.

Chunci couldn't persuade Yu Youyou and had to get into the sedan chair with her.

Gusu City is extremely prosperous. Houses are lined up in the city, pedestrians walk through the streets, and various stalls are lined up on the street sides.

The butler drove the carriage through the city for half a minute and arrived at the general's mansion.

As soon as they entered the door, a group of maids came to greet them and took Yu Youyou and Chunci through the outer courtyard and all the way to the inner courtyard. When they arrived at the inner courtyard, Yu Youyou and Chunci saw a stage in the middle of the inner courtyard.

On the stage, the music was beating loudly. Several actors were dressed in red and green, with heavy makeup on their faces, dancing and singing to the music.

There were two armchairs in front of the stage. The one on the left was empty, while a delicate-looking young lady sat on the right. Several maids in luxurious clothes were standing beside her, holding umbrellas.

In broad daylight, the general's mansion was a scene of constant music, singing and dancing.

The red, green and yellow dresses reflected in Youyou's eyes, and she stopped curiously, tilted her head, and stared at the actors on the stage intently.

One of the actors was the most unique. His clothes were not tied tightly together, but draped loosely on his body, and his skin was faintly visible under the clothes.

He saw Yu Youyou standing in the audience, so he started to sing: "Where did this beautiful girl come from? She has bright eyes and white teeth. I feel pity for her..."
