Chapter 1228

Gu Qing smiled happily.

Zhuang Ya frowned: "Then… what about me? I'm obedient to you too, right?"

Zhao Chi looked at her and laughed: "You're only obedient in bed. Normally you're a rebellious child… rebellious daughter? Rebellious wife?"

"That's not true… I've already been very obedient to you…" Zhuang Ya frowned: "You don't like me calling you Little Zhao Chi?"

Zhao Chi laughed: "I was just joking with you. I'll give you 100 points too. Then I'll assign you."

He opened the operation interface.

Zhao Chi finished assigning the 4 entertainment rooms they had picked.

In an instant, Zhao Chi received 4 notifications:

【Your subordinate Gu Qing: Obedience degree already increased to: 10 — Worship as a God】

【Your subordinate Tang Ruan……】

【Your subordinate Qi Yue……】

【Your subordinate Zhuang Ya……】

All 4 of them had activated their obedience degree, and it was maxed out directly.

Worship as a God……

Is it that exaggerated?

Zhao Chi was still looking at the notifications when he suddenly felt 4 scorching gazes fixed intently on him.

He quickly closed the system.

He discovered it was precisely the gazes of Gu Qing and the others.

Their gazes were very strange.

Somewhat dazed, as if they had seen something unbelievable.

But very quickly, their gazes became fervent.

Gu Qing was trembling, all of them were trembling.

Unlike the trembling when energy was being added — the violent abdominal contractions and legs shaking wildly — this was a trembling from excitement beyond all measure.

Tang Ruan already was dazed.

She was usually a bit silly and cute, but rarely like this.

As if her nerves had been completely blocked, with no reaction at all, just her little mouth slightly open, staring fixedly at Zhao Chi, as if she didn't recognize him.

Qi Yue stood in place, two lines of clear tears flowing down.

Looking at her appearance, she probably didn't even know she was crying.

Tears dripped, falling to the ground, like Zhuang Ya when she had broken down.

Zhuang Ya was prostrated on the ground.

Prostrating herself as if in full-body worship.

Given her personality, she probably never imagined she would one day be like this.

Seeing the changes in these few people, Zhao Chi was also caught off guard. He hadn't expected their reactions to be so big.

If their obedience degree had been raised from 9 to 10, it should have been very calm.

But theirs had gone from completely nonexistent to 10 obedience degree in an instant.

This stimulus was simply too great.

It's like swimming in winter.

Before swimming in winter, you definitely have to warm up first, or splash some cold water on your body to let it adjust first.

If you were sleeping and suddenly thrown into ice water, you'd probably go crazy.

They were in this state right now.

Too sudden.

Too intense.

Zhao Chi was actually a bit at a loss too.

But he still immediately pulled Zhuang Ya up.

"Get up quickly, don't lie on the ground."

"Yes, my lord."

Zhuang Ya's voice was full of reverence, and this time she didn't call Zhao Chi's name again.

She obediently stood up, but her gaze at Zhao Chi actually had some avoidance, as if she didn't dare to meet his eyes.

Zhao Chi then gently wiped away Qi Yue's tears.

"Why are you crying too? Is it really that exaggerated?"

Qi Yue gently shook her head, but more tears came.

Gu Qing was still trembling, her legs barely holding her up, as if she could lose strength at any moment and sit on the ground.

Zhao Chi supported her, but she was a bit nervous: "Thank you, thank you, my lord…"

Tang Ruan finally reacted at this point.

She threw herself at him directly, her two soft arms hugging Zhao Chi very tightly. Zhao Chi felt like he was being wrapped by a python.

"Tang Ruan, ease up a bit…"

Tang Ruan quickly let go, looking at Zhao Chi nervously.

Zhao Chi sighed: "You 4… it can't be that bad, right? You should still have your previous memories, right? You don't need to be like this with me."

Gu Qing pressed both hands tightly against her chest, severely deforming her softness: "My lord, I don't know what's going on either. I just feel my heart constantly clenching, it's so uncomfortable."

Qi Yue also blinked her tearful eyes, nodding continuously.

Zhuang Ya was about to kneel again, so Zhao Chi quickly pulled her back and held her in his arms.

Zhuang Ya immediately stiffened all over, at a loss for what to do with her hands and feet.

Zhao Chi sighed and soothed them one by one.

This situation should recover on its own.

It was just like when the women of Taoyuan first received the "Bone-Gathering Revival" gene — they were excited for a whole week.

But as time passed, their excitement gradually faded and they returned to normal.

The same goes for their submissiveness.

They were just stunned for a moment; they should slowly get better after a while.

In a few days, they'll be just like before.

Only they'll treat Zhao Chi more wholeheartedly than before.

After soothing them for quite a while, the few of them finally recovered a little.

Zhao Chi breathed a sigh of relief: "Hurry up and recover, please. It's more comfortable getting along like before. When you're like this, I feel a lot of pressure too."

Gu Qing sighed: "I reckon it'll take at least one or two days. I still feel very strange. My lord, you won't abandon us, will you?"

Where did that come from?

Completely out of nowhere.

Zhao Chi laughed: "Of course not. How could I?"

Gu Qing forced a faint smile: "I didn't think so either. I will definitely guard you well."

Zhuang Ya furrowed her brow and said firmly: "So will I."

"And me." Qi Yue's tears finally stopped flowing, but her eyes were still glistening.

"Me too." Tang Ruan's expression was very serious.

Zhao Chi laughed: "I believe you, I believe all of you. Alright, your rooms have all been arranged. You can go tidy up now and sleep here in Feng Yin Lou tonight."

Thinking of this, they all cheered up a little.

Then they all went off to move bedding and arrange furniture.

Li Zhu's carpentry group's main work now is making furniture, as well as timber for construction.

There are plenty of ready-made pieces of furniture that can be moved in and used right away.

The four women left, and Zhao Chi also breathed a sigh of relief.

He really hadn't expected that a 10-point submissiveness would turn out like this.

He guessed that if their loyalty had also instantly jumped to 10, they'd probably have reacted about the same way?

There were quite a few female villagers nearby; they had all been watching curiously just now.

Now seeing Gu Qing and the others leave, they all dispersed and went back to looking around.
