Gao Wu: After transforming into a soft girl, I became a calamity?

Of the five human apex beings, only [Eternal Day] possesses the "Inheritance" mechanism.

According to the original [Eternal Day] himself, if this power is passed down from generation to generation, it can theoretically be accumulated indefinitely.

As long as humanity exists, one day we will surely overcome calamities and dispel the fog.

Therefore, its importance is paramount, not merely because modern cities are built upon it.

However, it took more than 150 years for the second generation of the pinnacle to emerge.

Yang Xin knew that in the eyes of all the high-level executives, the power of each generation of [Eternal Day] was extremely precious.

After all, no one knows which year it will take, or how much effort it will take to dispel all the fog.

Now, its owner has not chosen to leave a mark or integrate it into "Changming," but has seemingly handed it over to that girl.

If those guys found out about this, they'd probably think this kid's been blinded by love and was acting recklessly.

Whether this power can be retained after it has been passed down once, and what effects it will have on other awakened individuals, is perhaps only known to [Eternal Day].

After Ye Chenyang revealed his identity, Yang Xin investigated his past and the people around him to avoid any oversights.

Ye Chenyang's parents both worked in the city defense and died in a foggy tide six years ago. Since then, he has lived with his uncle's family.

Due to the backwardness of information systems and the inconvenience of intercity communication in the early years, his experiences in the middle years are not very clear.

Perhaps because he was having a hard time, or perhaps because he was precocious, he moved out to live alone as soon as he turned sixteen.

There are many similar examples in those remote small towns, such as Jiang Mian.

"Do we share the same fate?"

Yang Xin muttered to himself.

In fact, Jiang Mian lost her mother and started living independently a year earlier than Ye Chenyang, so she may not be as weak as she appears on the surface.

She shook her head and didn't delve into it further.

Perhaps that's why he's even more pitiful? No wonder this kid got caught up in it.

Yang Xin wouldn't interfere in these private matters, but he would need to find a time to clarify the matter concerning the mark.

……

Inside a hotel room.

Jiang Mian leaned against the door, staring blankly at the "gift" in her hand.

It was a red gift box, very light, but carefully tied with a ribbon, and decorated with small, exquisite ornaments.

"Let's dismantle it later."

After placing the box on the bedside table, she casually grabbed a set of pajamas and went into the bathroom.

Although self-cleaning elements can be used, Jiang Mian still prefers to wash it herself.

The sound of rushing water filled her mind, but the scene from just moments ago kept replaying in her head.

Although she managed to win in the end, when Ye Chenyang confessed his feelings, she still revealed her embarrassing state to him without reservation.

Jiang Mian shook her head, banishing the distracting thoughts.

"Fine, I've already agreed anyway."

She had a vague premonition that after completing these "important matters," her time in Base City 7 was already counting down.

Once the lockdown is completely lifted, we should be able to head to Base City One.

I've been staying in hotels for so many days, and it's really inconvenient. I don't know where I can stay when I go out there.

She didn't know much about the training program, only that it was roughly in the form of a training camp.

Jiang Mian didn't seem to care much. Ye Chenyang was familiar with the place, so she could leave the arrangements to him, just like when she first arrived.

A moment later, she finished rinsing, and with a slight thought, all the dampness on her body was peeled away and dissipated.

Jiang Mian sat on the bed and picked up the red gift box.

Ye Chenyang had given her gifts more than once, but this time, perhaps because it was a formal confession, it felt especially ceremonial.

Jiang Mian slowly pulled the ribbon open and then lifted the lid.

Inside lay a necklace, its pendant a round, safe buckle.

The material is not the usual gold, but a more understated transparent color.

It looks like he made it by hand, similar to the bracelet, but of higher quality and seems to have additional functions.

She took out the necklace and draped it around her neck.

It doesn't feel cold to the touch; instead, it has a warm, gentle feel.

Jiang Mian held the pendant and poured his spiritual energy into it.

The necklace only emitted a dazzling golden light after it was activated.

It seems to be a high-quality crystallization of light, but I don't know what method Ye Chenyang used to change its color.

She closed her eyes and seemed to see... a storage space?

Ok?

Jiang Mian was slightly taken aback.

Ye Chenyang knew that she had a personal space, so he certainly wouldn't do anything meaningless.

Is it to cover for themselves so they can use their own space openly?

He hasn't advanced in rank recently, so where did he get this Radiant Crystal with spatial attributes?

A hint of doubt flashed in Jiang Mian's eyes, but she did not intend to delve into the matter.

Some things don't need to be known so clearly.

She took off the necklace, but instead of putting it back in the box, she placed it in a conspicuous place, intending to wear it again during the day.

Jiang Mian then huddled under the covers.

I slept without any dreams.

……

Perhaps because she slept so soundly, Jiang Mian didn't wake up until almost noon.

She quickly finished washing up, opened her suitcase, and stared blankly at a pile of clothes, a rare occurrence for her.

Normally, Jiang Mian would never hesitate over this; she would just throw on a short-sleeved shirt and shorts and be done with it. Why would she need to pick and choose?

But today is my first day as a full-time employee, so why don't I wear something he likes?

I teased him to that extent last night. It's funny, but I have to control myself.

Jiang Mian was well aware of how attractive she was to him, especially now that his favorability rating was already maxed out, the boost would probably be terrifying.

From his perspective, last night's experience was quite thrilling; he might even think of her the moment he closes his eyes.

If the progress gets out of control and goes completely off the rails, she doesn't know what to do.

She had bought a lot of dresses before, all kinds of dresses, but none of them were long.

The blue dress I wore last time was pretty good; the length was just right, it didn't show too much skin, and it looked good on me.

That's it.

Jiang Mian changed into her shoes with practiced ease, slipped on a pair of matching sandals, and went out the door.

"Brother Ye!"

Ye Chenyang seemed to be carving something in his hands. Hearing Jiang Mian's voice, he looked up, hesitated for a moment, and then greeted her.

"……morning?"

It's almost noon, doesn't that seem a bit inappropriate?

Jiang Mian was speechless, only finding it amusing. She walked briskly and quickly approached him.

Ye Chenyang put away what he was holding, casually put his arm around her shoulder, and his gaze involuntarily lingered on her.

The necklace I gave her last night was resting quietly around her neck, the pendant positioned just below her collarbone, looking perfect.

Jiang Mian noticed his gaze, a faint smile appeared on her lips, and she turned slightly to the side.

"Is it pretty?"

"nice."

Ye Chenyang nodded repeatedly.

How good-looking is it?

"Forehead……"

This relentless questioning left him speechless.

Seeing his discomfiture, Jiang Mian felt a little happier, her smile deepening as she raised her hand and gently patted Ye Chenyang's head.

Sure enough, teasing him is still the most fun.
