Chapter 67
"I can carry them."
Anbi thought Ye Qingfeng treated her like a pampered little girl, so she frowned slightly and emphasized with a serious tone.
"I know!"
Of course Ye Qingfeng knew Anbi was very strong. After all, what kind of girl with thin arms and legs could block a sudden attack from such a large Ethereal?
Not only did she block it, but she was only pushed back a few meters by the Ethereal... That big blade, if it had hit a person, they would probably have been split in two.......
Anyway, if it were him, he definitely wouldn't have been able to block it......
(Reiterating the power level issue, there will be a 20-pull after ten chapters)
Ye Qingfeng saw that the gazes on the road were no longer gathering, and he breathed a sigh of relief. With a look of lingering fear, he sincerely expressed, "I just wanted to help Anbi carry one bag, is that okay?"
If he didn't act, those passersby radiating murderous intent might just have some narcissistic guy come over, stage a speech from the moral high ground, and try to win the favor of the weak and helpless Anbi......
He definitely wasn't feeling annoyed or anything... he just simply thought it was troublesome! Yeah!
A hint of a smile appeared on Anbi's indifferent face—a smile that was hard to detect!
If one were to take out a ruler to measure, they would find that the corners of her mouth were raised by about 5 degrees more than usual......
Such a subtle change was something even Ye Qingfeng, standing right next to Anbi, couldn't notice at all.
Now Anbi's left hand was free, and because Ye Qingfeng was right-handed, he transferred the shopping bag he was holding in his left hand to his right.
She instantly noticed Ye Qingfeng's empty left hand, and with a thought, she grabbed it. This time, the action wasn't because of Nicole's instructions, but because of her own genuine desire at that moment.
She just wanted to hold Qingfeng's hand, nothing more.....
Ye Qingfeng felt his right hand being suddenly grabbed. The familiar warmth and familiar touch made him smile knowingly. His heart, which had always felt empty, suddenly felt like something had been added to it!
He gently turned his hand over and took the initiative to interlace his fingers with Anbi's. Their hands were tightly clasped.
【Ding! Anbi's favorability increased by 5%】
【Current favorability: 60%, reward: 5 pull attempts】
【Ding! Reminding the host that 17 pull attempts have been accumulated, you can pull at any time!】
Ye Qingfeng, in a great mood, heard the broadcast in his head and was somewhat surprised at how he had accumulated so many attempts. Surprise aside, it made his mood even better.
However, now was his and Anbi's time, so... "Alright, alright~ I know! Little System, step down!"
【......】
If the emotions he felt for the girls in the past were just heart-fluttering, what he felt for Anbi now was more of a stirring of the heart.
After living this way for a while, the women he had met.......
He paused and was surprised to find that everyone he knew was female? Could it be... that he actually had a very strong romantic fate?
If the system could hear Ye Qingfeng's inner thoughts, it would definitely retort, 【"No! You're overthinking it! It's actually all the system's credit!"】
(' ' represents inner thoughts)
Back to the point! The few he knew and was relatively familiar with were all goddess-level in his past life, and it wasn't just a casual attitude toward relationships; they were all the type of characters one could entrust their life to.
For example, the two from the Rabbit House and Zhu Yuan!
Boys, right~ who hasn't fantasized about a life with a girl in each arm? And as far as he knew! Because of the existence of Hollow disasters, there was no guarantee when one might fall into danger.
Therefore, the population had plummeted under repeated Hollow disasters, and just recently, a new law was passed: polygamy was legalized!
(This is a private setting! If you readers were to transmigrate, in a time where polygamy is legal, what choice would you make? No matter the choice, as long as you can answer to your own conscience, isn't that enough?)
(Fan-fiction private setting, please don't take it seriously!)
First, the legalization of polygamy! Then, the favorability system! It really put him in a tough spot!
Pure love or harem? Isn't this forcing him to make a decision!
Since that's the case! Why not have both!
Ye Qingfeng ultimately chose pure love for every member of his harem!
Of course, he wouldn't just take every good-looking girl he saw into his harem. For example, Anbi earlier—he really just wanted to treat her like a little sister.
You all saw it! Today, she was the one who made the first move!
"Qingfeng... Qingfeng? Qingfeng!!"
While Ye Qingfeng was lost in thought, he didn't notice the beautiful curve of his mouth. Hearing Anbi's continuous calls, he finally woke up from his wonderful fantasy.
He hadn't fully regained his senses yet. He was terrified that everything that had happened was actually a dream. Although he had accepted the fact that he had transmigrated, things being too good created a sense of unreality.
Ye Qingfeng prayed silently in his heart: if it were a dream, he hoped he would never wake up......
He could sleep a little longer!
After all, he really didn't want to return to that life that was like stagnant water!
Ye Qingfeng's palm tightened unconsciously. As the force increased, his nails had already left marks on Anbi's hand. If this continued, it would bleed sooner or later.
Anbi felt her palm being squeezed, and the stinging pain on the back of her hand only made her frown slightly. She raised her volume, "Qingfeng, you're hurting me!"
"Ah?"
Hearing the voice in his ear, Ye Qingfeng finally came to his senses. He vaguely saw the veins on his left arm bulging, and blood on his fingernails.
That bright, fresh red instantly woke him up completely. He let go of her left hand instantly and subconsciously took a step back, his eyes full of fear and confusion.
Did I do this?
Was it because of what he was thinking just now that he subconsciously used force?
Before Ye Qingfeng could think more, the moment he saw the scene before him, his pupils shrank rapidly. His body couldn't stop trembling, fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and his right hand suddenly relaxed, causing the shopping bag to drop.
It made a "Bang!" sound!
Anbi, in her white dress, had her arm hanging by her side. There were four nail marks on her jade-like palm, and bright red blood beads were slowly seeping from the wounds. The fresh blood wound its way down through the gaps in her fingers and dripped onto the ground.
The blood-stained back of her hand against the white dress looked like bright yet ferocious red plum blossoms.
"I... I'm sorry...... I didn't mean to!"
Ye Qingfeng stood frozen, his voice trembling with apology.
"It's okay, just a small injury."
Anbi felt Ye Qingfeng's heartfelt apology and worry, so she forced a smile and said lightly.
She had rarely smiled since she could remember, so she didn't know if she looked strange now, but she just wanted Ye Qingfeng not to worry so much.
After all, this little injury was really insignificant to her; she didn't even consider this level of injury to be an injury at all in her heart.
