Chapter 155 Two Thousand!
Chaochao pursed her lips and whispered, "It's gone up so much, so much, so much, so much."

She held up two fingers. "It said two thousand. Did I hear that right?"

The people present were suddenly shocked. Two thousand?!

So many? No wonder Chaochao doubted that she had heard correctly; even they thought the system might have made a mistake.

Yes, but that's probably unlikely.

The people of Daqi under the sky also gasped. Two thousand!
How did it suddenly increase so much? Didn't it just drop to zero yesterday?

What exactly did Chaochao do? She just took a nap, right? It's impossible that she saved many people and did many good deeds in her sleep.

The court, which had just been discussing energy levels, fell silent again. The ministers who had just spoken about controlling energy levels all had their expressions twisted for a moment.

No, they went to great lengths and made many efforts to accumulate a thousand energy points, and it took them a long time to finally reach that amount.

Two thousand more appeared overnight.

Two thousand? That means you can only make two wishes every day? How can this be allowed to happen? It's like they're trying to kill us all!

Some people are already getting anxious: "Isn't this energy level rising too much? Surely the wishes we make every day can't still be related to our Great Qi?"

General Weiwu speculated, "Could it be that Chaochao's father's foundation has helped a lot of people again, which is why her energy value has increased so quickly? Yesterday, sending five children home increased her energy value by three hundred. This time, she might have sent dozens more?"

Um... that seems unlikely.

After a moment of contemplation, Minister of War Qu Wende speculated, "I think it might be related to Chaochao's wish."

"What Lord Qu means is..."

"If Chaochao's wish were anything else, it would be fine, but it is to save people. Besides Lin Lan and others, there are many guards on the ship. So many lives, all added up, two thousand energy points is reasonable."

Just as he had guessed, He Nanzhou saw Chaochao looking at him with a puzzled expression and explained with a smile, "It's probably because your wish helped your sister Lin Lan and the others, and changed their future, so the energy value was fed back."

Chaochao's eyes lit up. "So that's how it is."

"This is the reward for Chaochao's kindness."

What He Nanzhou didn't say was that with such a high energy level and being from ancient times, the change in Lin Lan and the others' fate must be significant.

I'm afraid... they really were in danger, and Chaochao's wish saved them, or even more than one or two of them.

I just don't know what exactly happened in ancient times.

The other adults present tacitly refrained from mentioning this, fearing it would worry Chaochao.

After receiving an explanation, Chaochao felt much more at ease.

Lin Lan and the others on the ship felt equally at ease.

Yesterday they felt guilty because Chaochao had used up all their energy to save them, but today it has doubled.

"I thought it would take a long time to save up, but I didn't expect to get it back overnight."

"That puts my mind at ease. Otherwise, all that effort would have been for nothing, and Asahi would have been so heartbroken." Ryohei said excitedly, "This time it's two thousand, so can Asahi make two wishes?"

"Yeah." Everyone realized and looked at the sky with some anticipation. "I wonder what kind of wishes Chaochao will make. She's easily satisfied. Now that she has enough to eat and wear and her parents are around, it seems like she doesn't have any other requests. Yesterday, she had two wishes that stumped her, and today she has to make two more. It's really worrying our little Chaochao."

At this point, everyone couldn't help but laugh.

Only Jiang Laosan and the others had stiff expressions and couldn't smile at all.

Not to mention Hu Fulai and Zheng Shi, whose expressions were contorted with rage because their son had become an idiot.

Why did his eyes, staring at the sky, resemble those of a venomous snake?
Why is Heaven so kind to Chaochao? Yet they have to endure such grief. Everyone else is fine, but their Baodun has become an idiot, an idiot who doesn't even recognize his parents. It's so unfair.

They were unwilling to accept it!

"Achoo!" Chaochao couldn't help but sneeze. She rubbed her nose and drank the last sip of milk.

After breakfast, her energy levels returned, even doubled, which made Chaochao even more energetic.

She excitedly packed the last few things into her suitcase, then stood in the living room with her small shoulder bag on her back, looking radiant as she waited for her parents to leave for the airport.

After waiting for a while, she finally realized something.

"Grandma." Chaochao tugged at Song Zhen's sleeve as she straightened her clothes and whispered, "Why is it that I have two thousand energy points, but it's not talking anymore, and it hasn't let me make any more wishes?"

Song Zhen was taken aback. Oh right, how could she have forgotten about this?

She couldn't help but look at He Nanzhou and Jian Yunsang, who were pushing their luggage over, and asked, "What do you think is going on here?"

Jian Yunsang had just remembered this matter and even discussed it with He Nanzhou while combing her hair.

"Making a wish is too big a deal. If you could make a wish every thousand, things would go crazy. After all, it seems that reaching a thousand is still quite easy under certain special circumstances. We suspect that there might be a bonus for reaching a round number. The first time it might be a thousand, the second time it might be ten thousand, and the third time it might be a hundred thousand or a million? It's also possible that it won't be a wish every time, and we don't know what the bonus will be next time."

To find out the pattern behind this, we'll probably have to wait until Ah Shan wakes up and ask him. Last time, it took Ah Shan two years to wake up and bring Chao Chao back; who knows how long it will take this time?

Song Zhen thought what she said made sense. She squatted down and said to Chaochao, "Then let's just collect energy in peace. We'll see what it is when we collect 10,000. There's no rush."

Chao Chao hummed twice, "Okay, no rush, I just need to do good deeds."

Lin Lan and the others were somewhat disappointed. "We can't make a wish? That's such a pity. If we really want to save up 10,000, won't it take a long time?"

Aunt Yu chuckled and scolded her, "He hasn't said anything since morning, why are you in such a hurry?"

Guo Xiucai, however, stroked his beard and spoke in a deep voice, "I think this is fine. Miss Jian is right. A thousand wishes a year would be chaotic. Chaochao is still young. If her wishes are too easily granted, she will have the wrong understanding."

Lin Lan thought about it and agreed, "That makes sense."

Jiang Laosan and Kuangzi, who were in another cabin, breathed a sigh of relief.

Sometimes they found it strange; they hoped that Chaochao could make a wish, like yesterday, to save their lives in their time of crisis. But they were also afraid that if she could make a wish, it would bring bad luck if it affected them.

The ministers in the court also breathed a sigh of relief. This was good; they could be more cautious about making a wish once they had accumulated 10,000 energy points.
