"Alvin? Are you not feeling well?"
Aurelia noticed Alvin's abnormal behavior, but she did not understand what was going on. Hence, she stretched out her hand and clenched her fist.
"Alvin, you look a little tired. Do you need me to massage your shoulder?"
He looked at Aurelia's clenched fist.
Then he thought of Aurelia's strength attribute which had more than nine billion points.
Alvin shook his head like a rattle-drum. "No, no, no. As an adult, one must bear the pain by themselves..."
...
The two of them returned to the car.
Alvin kept taking deep breaths, trying to calm himself down.
This was because the person sitting next to him was not a gentle and adorable young lady.
Her fists were powerful enough to be a great weapon that could shatter a building with one punch!
However, when Alvin calmed down, he suddenly thought of something.
As a reincarnated person, Aurelia was a little different from ordinary people. This was reasonable enough.
But what about him?
What was going on with this system that appeared in front of him?
Aurelia actually did not have to rely on her identity as a reincarnated person at all.
She could have instead used her beauty to slowly open up his heart.
Alvin knew that he was a conservative person. However, as a man, it would be very difficult for him to maintain his composure under the attacks of a beautiful woman.
Telling him about her reincarnation showed Aurelia's sincerity and integrity.
In return, Alvin felt that he should also tell Aurelia that he had obtained this system.
Someone who was reincarnated and someone who had a system. This combination wasn't strange, but it was quite compatible from a certain perspective.
However, Alvin only had this thought before he was warned by the system.
[ Warning: Do not let others know anything about the system. Otherwise, there will be a backlash, and the host's life will be in danger. ]
Tsk.
After hearing this warning, Alvin also gave up on the idea of telling her.
It seemed that the system couldn't let Aurelia know of its existence.
Doing so would cause him to die.
"What's wrong? Do you have something to say?"
Just by noticing Alvin's frown, Aurelia realized that Alvin had something important to say. Hence, Aurelia took the initiative to ask him.
"Nothing," Alvin replied. "Where are we going now?"
"To your house."
"My house? Let's not. We can go to a cafe and have a good talk..."
When Alvin heard that Aurelia wanted to go to his house, he immediately became alert.
In fact, as a dedicated employee in his workplace, Alvin did not have so much energy to clean his house.
It was not that he did not have time, but more so that he did not have the energy.
Every time he finished an intensive day at work and returned home, he only wanted to find a novel to read and relax. When he woke up the next day, he had to go to work again. He simply had no opening in his schedule for him to clean the house.
Therefore, Alvin instinctively refused to be visited by others. Perhaps that was how he came to be evaluated as someone who blocks out strangers.
"You don't have to be shy," Aurelia replied with a smile.
"It's just hair scattered at the bedside..."
"A stool filled with clothes on top of it..."
"It's not like I don't know anything about it. Not only do I know about all these, but I'll also make your place even messier."
"Haha, don't worry. My clothes will be piled on the stool in your house today."
Hearing such an answer, Alvin couldn't say anything.
Admittedly, he didn't know Aurelia. However, Aurelia had been in a relationship with him for five years. She knew everything about him like the back of her hand.
...
Alvin's place was an apartment, but he did not own it.
Based on his current salary, he would need another twenty years to buy this apartment. Furthermore, the current housing price had no room to rise higher, so it wasn't suitable as a financial investment.
Therefore, Alvin chose to rent. Of course, this was also because he had not saved a lot of money.
Since he had chosen to rent a place, Alvin did not have the mood to think about decoration and furniture for his rented apartment. Everything was done in the most cost-effective manner.
His house was very simple and crude.
It was so simple that Alvin blushed as soon as he entered the house.
The house was obviously not suitable for entertaining guests.
Moreover, the guest that had come over today was his girlfriend.
If he had known that so many things would happen today, Alvin would have cleaned the house early in the morning. He would also buy a few potted plants to decorate it so that the house would not look so shabby. Maybe he would have bought a few murals to give his house a more artistic vibe.
However, Aurelia did not seem to care at all.
Her eyes lit up as soon as she entered the room. She spread her arms like a lunatic and kept wandering around the room. She touched the gray television and smiled foolishly at the coffee table.
"How nostalgic!"
Aurelia seemed to have deep feelings for this messy room.
"We stayed here for almost two years. At that time, you were still saving money for the future. I was still in university and didn't have any income."
"Later on, we lived in a nice villa. However, this house is also a part of my memory. I missed this place very much."
When Aurelia said this, her eyes were shining.
Alvin heaved a sigh of relief. It seemed that Aurelia didn't care much about how his place looked. Instead, she felt very nostalgic.
...
The two chatted for a while and prepared dinner.
The dinner was mainly prepared by Aurelia. She said that as someone who was reincarnated, she understood what both of them liked. Hence, she kicked Alvin out of the kitchen.
After that, Alvin glanced at the dishes on the table. They were indeed dishes that he liked.
He suddenly thought of a question.
"Your car... where did you get it from?" Alvin asked.
According to Aurelia, when they first got together, they were very poor and could only rent an apartment. Later on, they became richer and lived in a villa.
Then according to the timeline, since he was living in a rented apartment, he should still be relatively poor at this moment. Furthermore, Aurelia should still be in school.
Where did that expensive Bugatti Veyron limited edition car come from?
"I got it from a friend."
Aurelia replied, "I have a few loyal subordinates... Oh, it's a slip of the tongue. They're my best friends..."
"One of them is a multi-millionaire. If she wants a car, she only needs to say a word and it's all done."
"Although they don't know me yet, don't worry about it. I'll use my memories of the future and quickly get close to them..."
Alvin was stunned for a moment. After some thought, he understood.
"In other words, you have a couple of close friends in the future."
"And right now, they don't know you. But you retained your memories when you were reincarnated. So you're using the embarrassing things they did when they were young or some secret to blackmail them, right?"
Aurelia: "..."
"Eat your food!"
