Ling Jue pinched Tang Yuan's soft body and tugged at it. Tang Yuan was grinning from ear to ear, unlike the aggrieved look it used to have.
Ling Jue's lips curled up. She was just an outsider, but she had inherited Ling Jue's thoughts. She was rather soft-hearted towards her grandmother, and her sadness seemed to be able to infect her as well.
If it were the Ling Jue of the past, she would not be affected by these feelings at all.
"Lord Jue, you will be even more perfect like this. You see, the Lord Jue of the past only knew how to wear a mask and live his life as the tribe leader in everyone's eyes. He worked hard with the great elder to build the Miaojiang Gu tribe well. Back then, Lord Jue was Lord Jue, but now, Lord Jue is Ling Jue. For the sake of Ling Jue who lives for himself, I think grandma is right. No one can control the lives of others. It all depends on how you live. Mmm mmm mmm..."
Before Tang Yuan could finish, Ling Jue reached out to cover its mouth. "You little bug, how did you know all this? Did you evolve?"
"I haven't!" Tang Yuan's fur turned pink. It pouted and sat on her lap, saying with a distant expression, "After living in the mortal world for a long time, you will understand how to adapt to the mortal world."
"As a Gu, you still have to think so much. Are you tired? Hahaha!" Ling Jue burst into laughter. She held it in her hand and curled it into a furry ball. She raised an eyebrow. "Tang Yuan, why don't I change your name for you?"
"Huh?" It quickly walked out from between her fingers. It kept swinging one of its claws, its face full of fear. "I won't change it! I won't!"
"Why not? I suddenly feel that Tang Yuan doesn't sound good anymore." Ling Jue smiled, teasing it.
"Master Tang Yuan, V587!" It clenched one of its small claws tightly and acted like superman. It had a heroic look on its face, even though it did not have legs yet.
"I think dumplings are a good name." Ling Jue rubbed her chin and looked at it thoughtfully.
"Then, Lord Jue, you can keep another imperial Gu... No, no, no!" It suddenly became excited and shook its head. It sat on her lap, its eyes sparkling. It raised its eyes and looked at her. "If there is another imperial Gu, will Lord Jue not like Tang Yuan anymore?"
It said it as if she was going to abandon it. Its blue eyes looked like they were about to burst into tears.
"No, you're so cute. If you leave, who will make me happy?" Ling Jue held it in her hands, her lips curling into a doting smile.
"Really?" It raised its head and looked at her excitedly. "In Lord Jue's eyes, is Tang Yuan really important?"
"Yes, yes." Ling Jue nodded. "It's very important."
Tang Yuan gave a big smile. It knew that Tang Yuan was special to Lord Jue.
The most powerful and domineering Tang Yuan!
Tang Yuan's face was full of excitement as it rolled around in her palm. It was so happy that Lord Jue had confessed to it.
She said that Tang Yuan was the most important thing to her!
Hehe, it decided to eat more tonight.
Ling Jue held it in her hand and leaned against the bench, looking at the light in the corridor. She did not know what was wrong with the light, but the end of the corridor was flickering.
The corridor was very quiet. It was already late at night.
She took out her phone and looked at the time. It was 23:00 pm.
"Let's go. We'll stay at the nearest hotel. We'll come back tomorrow." She stood up and pushed open the door to the ward. She was about to say goodbye to her grandmother, but she realized that she was already fast asleep, leaving only the faint sound of the television.
Ling Jue walked over and turned off the television before she left the ward.
What she did not know was that after she left, the person on the bed opened her eyes and let out a deep sigh.
