My game, Orange Flavor, is great!

Well, thankfully he managed to suppress it and didn't embarrass the original owner.

After a long while, she heard the other person say, "It's only at times like this that I feel that having such an ability isn't so bad."

Her tone was heavy and weary, which suddenly made one feel a pang of sadness.

Lu Zhao's heart skipped a beat. Usually, in this situation, Chi Ying would tell him about her tragic past, and he would offer her comfort. Before they knew it, their relationship would advance further.

Perhaps when they get back, they'll still appear to be adversaries on the surface, but when they meet in private, they'll exchange a knowing smile...

A curse word almost choked Lu Zhao, leaving her unsure whether to spit it out.

This doesn't fit the original character at all. Even if the original Lu Zhao changed, it could only be done by the original person, not by her.

Ultimately, someone who has usurped another's place has no right to arbitrarily alter the original person's interpersonal relationships.

Even Duan Yue's actions were only because the remaining consciousness in this body agreed to his actions.

Therefore, it's best to leave Chi Ying as is.

She coughed lightly and, without waiting for Chi Ying to speak, quickly changed the subject, "Oh right, when are we going back later? I need to take some more medicine after I finish eating."

"Medicine? What medicine?" Chi Ying snapped out of her daze, her beautiful brows furrowing again. "Are you sick? Or injured?"

It seems you all care a lot about her health.

Lu Zhao touched her nose a little guiltily, feeling that lying to people like this went against her kind and lovely nature, so she laughed it off and said, "It's nothing, just a cold."

Perhaps because she seemed too unsure, Chi Ying's eyes were filled with disbelief. However, before she could speak, the old man in the kitchen came out shakily carrying two bowls of noodles.

"grandmother!"

"Slow down, slow down!"

The two people quickly stepped forward, each taking a bowl, and helped the old man to sit down at the table.

The old man smiled and said to the two of them, "Eat up, don't worry about me."

They exchanged a glance, said nothing more, and obediently lowered their heads to eat their lunch.

However, as soon as he took his first bite of noodles, Lu Zhao glanced thoughtfully at Chi Ying. Seeing that Chi Ying's expression was exactly the same as his own, he didn't care and continued eating.

Before long, they finished all the noodles.

Seeing the old woman carry the bowl inside again, Lu Zhao hesitated before handing her a piece of paper: "Your grandmother..."

"I'm getting old, and my sense of taste has deteriorated quite a bit." Chi Ying gazed deeply at the hunched old man and sighed deeply.

Although he had a tasteless lunch, Lu Zhao didn't complain at all. He watched as Chi Ying went in and talked to the old man for a while, and he vaguely saw the old man slip a stack of red bills to her.

The elderly in the family are always a source of worry.

She leaned back in her chair with a touch of melancholy, silently clenching her fingers.

I wonder how her parents are doing now in that other world.

The sudden disappearance of their daughter must have been a huge blow to them, as must their grandparents, who are so old and will never see their granddaughter come back to visit them again...

It must be very sad.

Suddenly, her eyes welled up with tears. She sniffed hard, her nose stinging, and her fingers clenched even tighter, her nails turning white from the effort.

"Lu Zhao?"

A call brought her back to her senses. She turned around and saw Chi Ying standing before her. Instinctively, she touched the tears welling in her eyes and forced a smile, explaining, "Um… I just had dry eyes…"

“Yes, I know,” Chi Ying replied, her eyes darting around. “The weather here is quite dry.”

The two fell silent for a moment.

However, what Chi Ying didn't know was that Lu Zhao was already cursing himself out in his heart. The scene triggered his emotions, revealing his feelings. How could he be so unguarded!

This will definitely shatter the original owner's persona. Who knows, the next moment, Minister Chi might just send him for a body dissection!

Silently cursing his own incompetence, Lu Zhao was so nervous that he didn't even dare to wipe away the tears that had been hanging in the corners of his eyes. His eyes kept scanning Chi Ying, afraid that the other party would suddenly attack him.

To everyone's surprise, Chi Ying stood there for a long time, seemingly lost in thought. It wasn't until Lu Zhao himself realized something was amiss that he heard her turn her back and say in an unnatural voice, "I'm going to keep Grandma company. You can sit here for a while longer."

Ah this?

Lu Zhao was stunned again.

Chapter Sixty-One: Busy Captain Lu

Having spent so much time in this world, Lu Zhao's biggest takeaway is that her thought process is mostly different from these people.

Who would bring someone here for no reason, then inexplicably ignore them and leave them alone here?

If she were in that other world, she would definitely have cursed, "Are you crazy?" But in this world... well, when you're under someone else's roof, you have to bow your head.

After watching the grandmother and granddaughter stay in the kitchen for a while, it was Grandma Chi who noticed that her granddaughter had left her friend outside, and she hurriedly came out to greet the guest.

"I'm sorry, Xiao Lu. Xiao Ying is such a silly child. She insisted on dragging you over and caused you trouble."

What could Lu Zhao say in the face of such a kind old man?

She could only force a smile and wave at Grandma Chi: "It's alright, Grandma. Xiaoying has a lot to tell you. What a filial granddaughter!"

Yes, she wants to see her grandparents, but she can't see them yet.

Grandma Chi smiled and praised her for her eloquence, then pulled Chi Ying to her side. The three of them sat down around a small stove, warming themselves and chatting.

"Xiao Lu, since you are Xiao Ying's friend, you must also be a member of the Spirit Clan, right?" Grandma Chi asked kindly, showing none of the fear that people usually have towards the Spirit Clan.

She smiled and replied, "Yes, Chi... Xiaoying and I work in the same place, just in different departments, but we still see each other every day."

"So you two have a great relationship, right!"

Grandma Chi laughed heartily, clapping their hands repeatedly. After she finished laughing, she asked, "There must be many nice young people where you live. Are you dating anyone?"

Lu Zhao thought to himself, she might want to, but after being single for so many years, she didn't even know if she liked men or women. Now that she was in a place like this, how could she dare to fall in love?

"No, no, I'm still early." She waved her hand demurely.

Grandma Chi nodded knowingly, "Young people should focus on their careers first, and they can talk about love later."

Then she turned to look at Chi Ying: "Xiao Ying, are you in a relationship?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Zhao felt a chill run down his spine and subconsciously looked at Chi Ying. However, the other woman's expression was perfectly normal, and she simply smiled and shook her head: "No, Grandma."

"Xiaoying, you can't do this. Don't push yourself so hard. It's too tiring for a girl to work in a big city. You need to relax a bit."

Oh... Grandma, you actually treat people differently?

Seeing that Minister Chi's expression had become visibly helpless, Lu Zhao also awkwardly looked away.

It felt a bit like being bombarded with all sorts of personal questions from aunts and uncles during holidays. Although she knew that Grandma Chi was just asking out of kindness, the feeling of déjà vu was still quite strong.

Moreover, the person Chi Ying liked back then was the original owner of this body, so being asked this question to her face felt really strange.

Having been observing this person's emotions since the beginning, Chi Ying narrowed her eyes slightly and looked down at Grandma Chi, saying, "Grandma, it's getting late. Xiao Lu still needs to go home for dinner. We should go back."

"Oh?" Grandma Chi held Chi Ying's hand with some reluctance. "You're leaving so soon? Won't you stay for dinner before you go?"

She sighed as she spoke, then put Chi Ying's hand down and turned her back shakily: "Never mind, you young people have your own things to do, let's go."

"grandmother……"

Chi Ying stepped forward with a complicated expression, only to see Grandma Chi wave her hand, her already aged voice sounding even more tired, "I'm tired today too, you can bring Xiao Lu to see me next time."

She then slowly walked into the bedroom, closed the door, and didn't come out again.

Lu Zhao didn't say anything. He watched as Chi Ying stood there for a while, then turned her back to him and wiped something on her face before reminding him, "Chi Ying, go back. Grandma Chi will take good care of herself."

"……Um."

Chi Ying took a deep breath, turned around and was about to leave with her, but then remembered something and called out to the bedroom door, "Grandma, remember to make a cup of the milk I brought back before you go to bed tonight, it's good for your health."

After she finished speaking, she raised her eyes and stared at Lu Zhao for a long while before extending her hand to him.

After hesitating for a moment, Lu Zhao thought for a moment, then reached out and grasped the slightly cool hand, silently closed his eyes, and waited for the teleportation to begin.

Unbeknownst to her, Chi Ying tilted her head and stared at her for a while, a slight upturn at the corners of her mouth, before activating her ability and disappearing from the spot.

She experienced another dizzying sensation, but this time she was prepared and was fine except for a slight stomach upset.

But after a couple of times, she finally realized that many Chi Yings were unwilling to take the elderly with them. It was just that such a capacity was definitely not enough for people with weak bodies. If they chose conventional transportation, the bumpy ride would not be pleasant either.

As for that so-called second uncle, she really wanted to ask, but after all, it was a family matter, and Chi Ying didn't want to talk about it. It was better for her not to meddle.

As soon as she returned to the lounge, she consciously let go of Chi Ying's hand and very considerately assured her, "I won't tell anyone about what happened today, you can rest assured!"

Silently glancing at her hand that she immediately released, Chi Ying's gentleness when facing her grandmother vanished, replaced by the coldness that Lu Zhao was more familiar with.

"Okay, I understand." After saying that, she left the lounge without looking back.

call!

As the familiar sound of high heels gradually faded away, Lu Zhao finally breathed a sigh of relief, slumped onto the sofa, and casually opened a bottle of mineral water on the table, gulping down several mouthfuls.

What a day!
