Chapter 189 Can I Cure Your Heartache? (Ch 189)

Early in the morning on the 3rd, when Yu Xunge had just finished brushing his teeth and was thinking about what to eat for breakfast, he received a reward sent by Zhao Shuying.

The mail contained two wooden lunch boxes with wood grain on them. They were rectangular and slightly larger than the palm of your hand, and were about the same size as ordinary lunch boxes used for takeout in restaurants.

There are a few more paragraphs in the email.

[The box with a “♪” in the upper right corner is yours, and the other box is for you and Tulan to satisfy your cravings – Food Maker]

[That sentence is given to you by the maker of the food. This reward can only be triggered once a day, so for the next 29 days, you will receive a reward every day.

[The food box has a freshness-keeping function. There is only one serving of rewarded food. As long as you take the first bite, no matter you can finish it or not, and no matter whether you gain attribute points or not, this food will no longer have the effect of increasing attribute points for other people.

[If you fail to trigger it after the first bite, you will not be triggered again even if you continue to eat. You only have one chance a day. If you can’t finish it, you can eat slowly, but remember to watch the countdown. When the countdown ends, the food box and the things inside will disappear together. – Zhao Shuying]

Yu Xunge gently stroked the “♪” on the food box a few times, and after opening it, there was a palm-sized meat pie inside.

[Meat Pie] (100 points): A snack that can be found everywhere, but the quality of its ingredients and condiments, the degree of dough fermentation, the proportion of meat fillings and seasoning, the control of temperature during the production process, and even the timing of each flipping, every step is perfect. After eating, health points are restored by 30%, and there is a chance to increase a freely assignable attribute point. The eater’s liking for this food will affect the probability of triggering this effect, and this eating effect can only be triggered once a day. (Producer: Shen Yushi)

Shen Yushi…such a distant name.

In her previous life, when she was officially wanted, Shen Yushi once sent her a few dishes that could add attribute points, and then asked her if she wanted to help.

At that time, she had just started to escape and was very stubborn. She didn’t want to implicate old lady Shen Yushi, so she decisively refused – after all, the relationship between them as a grandmother and granddaughter was not that strong.

After leaving City B when they were young, they only met a few dozen times in City S, and never saw each other again after they were 10 years old.

The next time we saw her was when she entered the industry as an actress, and one of her dramas required a courtyard house as a setting.

That hot summer, she was wearing a large flowered cotton jacket and reciting lines in the alley, crying and jumping. After the performance, as soon as she wiped her tears, she saw an old lady standing at the entrance of the alley, fanning herself and looking at her. She didn’t know how long she had been looking at her…

It was then that they got in touch again. Yu Xunge didn’t even know how Shen Yushi recognized her after so many years, when she had grown from a child to an adult.

Later, whenever she went to City B, she would ask Shen Yu Shi if she had time. If Shen Yu Shi said yes, she would go to see Shen Yu Shi and have a meal with her, and that was all.

How could she have the nerve to trouble the old lady with such a dull relationship.

But after she rejected Shen Yu Shi’s help, Shen Yu Shi would occasionally mail her a wooden box with “♪” engraved on the upper right corner, which contained food that had a chance of increasing attribute points.

The number of times was not too many, only five times when she thought about it now, but these few times had sustained her for a long time. Every time she hid in the corner and ate those hot noodles, she always felt that she could hold on for a few more days.

At that time, her luck was only 8, but every time she ate the food sent by Shen Yushi, she could increase her attribute points.

In the end, she was really desperate. After receiving the spicy beef buns from Shen Yushi again, she mustered up the courage to ask Shen Yushi in a private message in the game if there was any organization in City B that was friendly to individual players and was not afraid of offending the S City Guild. She wanted to go to City B, but she promised that it would not bring her any trouble.

[Shen Yushi]: You are not allowed to come to City B! And you are not allowed to come to see me.

After that, she never received a food box from Shen Yushi again…

She never contacted Shen Yu Shi again, and even after her rebirth, she didn’t think of looking for Shen Yu Shi.

In her previous life, she was not sad or aggrieved, because she had no time to be sad. When she saw that sentence, she didn’t even have time to reply before she had to roll over to avoid the sneak attack.

She had no right to be sad. Although Shen Yushi was her grandmother, she had no obligation to help her and save her all the time, right? She couldn’t be ungrateful.

Now she is strong enough to fear nothing.

But when I think back to that moment, when the only match in my hand was blown out by the wind, I still find it hard to let go of the grievance.

She grabbed the meat pie and took a big bite, almost filling her mouth. She swallowed it down violently without having time to savor the taste, suppressing the sob in her throat.

A howling voice came from behind: “What delicious food are you eating~”

Yu Xunge blinked quickly, and smiled as he pushed another food box to her. Inside were two meat patties, both worth 99 points: “Meat patties.”

Tu Lan stared at her red eyes for a while, then used the [Expert] skill on her. White light enveloped Yu Xunge’s entire body, and the little ice dragon landed on her shoulders, spread its wings, and hugged her head: “Have I cured your sadness?”

Yu Xunge wanted to cry even more. She nodded vigorously: “Yes!”

There were only three meat patties in the two boxes. Yu Xunge and Tu Lan shared them, each eating one and a half. After finishing the meat patties, her mood calmed down.

In fact, she later guessed that Shen Yu Shi might have encountered something, and perhaps she was also having a hard time.

But sometimes people don’t get what they want most when they are most vulnerable, and after they get over it, they no longer need it.

Shen Yu Shi accompanied her through the most confused and helpless period, and also extinguished her hope when she had no way to escape and was holding on to the last glimmer of hope.

She didn’t know how to face Shen Yushi.

Talk about blame? That’s too ungrateful, she never blamed Shen Yushi.

Can I say I am completely grateful? I guess not.

She just…just couldn’t trust her grandma anymore.

If she fell off the cliff again, she would not grab the hand that her grandmother extended to her, she would not grab anyone’s hand, she would choose to hold on to the rock wall herself, even if her palms were cut by sharp rocks, even if she was smashed to pieces in the end, it was better than being let go.

So even though she knew that the other person had extraordinary talent, Yu Xunge did not approach him after her rebirth. She thought, let it be, and it would be enough to just interact with him as an ordinary relative like before.

If she had time to go to City B, she would visit Shen Yu Shi as she did before, eat with her, bring her gifts and honors, and if Shen Yu Shi was in danger, she would definitely help her…that was all.

After finishing his meal, Yu Xunge prepared to take Tu Lan out to continue clearing the level 13 copy.

Although she didn’t have time to check the forum last night, Zhao Shuying did send her an email saying that the video of Tulan playing the dungeon was secretly filmed by someone, and it was definitely not done by the Special Affairs Bureau. Before Yu Xunge goes to clean up the level 13 dungeon today, the Special Affairs Bureau will arrange 99 players to enter the dungeon first to take up positions, and they will come out after Yu Xunge goes in to kill the monsters and lock the dungeon.
