The first thing Ren Shuhan did when he woke up was ask where Jiang Qingyue was.

Fortunately, the nurse said he had just gone to the bathroom, and Jiang Qingyue quickly returned to his bedside, asking with concern, “What happened?”

“What?” Ren Shuhan felt a bit of a headache. “I can’t quite remember.”

Jiang Qingyue looked surprised and then touched his temples with concern. “Do you remember anything?”

“I remember…” Ren Shuhan closed his eyes and thought for a moment. “I went to your school to see you, and coincidentally, there was a fire. After we came out together, I accidentally got hit by something and fainted.”

“You told me to go first, saying you would go back to check something. But before I could say anything, when I went in to find you again, you had already fainted, and there was nothing around,” Jiang Qingyue held his hand and furrowed his eyebrows, asking him, “Why did you go back?”

In the previous life, Ren Shuhan was hit because he wanted to protect Jiang Qingyue. But this time, the lifeguard arrived early, and when they entered, they said they didn’t see Ren Shuhan being hit by anything. Could someone have plotted against him?

“I don’t remember.”

Ren Shuhan felt that there was a significant gap missing in his memory.

“It’s okay,” Jiang Qingyue smiled and touched his cheek, then pinched him hard. “As long as you remember that you promised me you’re okay but ended up getting hurt, that’s enough.”

Ren Shuhan: “…”

Suddenly, he felt uneasy.

He was just thinking about what to say to comfort his little one, and Jiang Qingyue suddenly hugged him, cuddling him affectionately. “So, you must not let me worry in the future.”

“No, no…” Ren Shuhan stammered for the first time. “You should let go first, Qingyue.”

Jiang Qingyue only loosened a bit, still keeping his face very close to Ren Shuhan’s. He looked at him with a slightly resentful expression.

Ren Shuhan’s face suddenly turned red. He struggled to push him away and turned his head, saying, “You’ve grown up; you can’t do this in the future.”

Jiang Qingyue looked at him puzzled for a while and suddenly said, “You don’t remember anything that happened later, do you? Do you remember Shi Xi?”

Ren Shuhan, confused, said, “What happened later? Who is Shi Xi?”

Not to mention Shi Xi, Ren Shuhan even lost the memories of the two previous worlds.

Jiang Qingyue fell silent.

In the last month of the trial honeymoon, he actually experienced the most real situation—his little uncle didn’t remember anything, experiencing the original world without the protagonist’s halo!

Thinking of this, Jiang Qingyue suddenly felt happy.

He tilted his head and said, “It’s even better that you don’t remember. From now on, you just need to look at me. Oh, by the way, you fell from the stairs to the basement, injured your legs, and the doctor said you won’t be able to walk for at least a week until you recover.”

Ren Shuhan: “…”

For some reason, he felt that his little Qingyue had awakened some strange attributes.

Now, when he faced Jiang Qingyue, he was still in a completely clueless state, not knowing how to respond. He could only say, “You’ve worked hard; you should go back now and let Wen Xin come over.”

“No, no,” Jiang Qingyue shook his head, suddenly behaving like when he was a child, he “pecked” Ren Shuhan on the face and said, “I’m not leaving. Anyway, you can’t do anything to me.”

Ren Shuhan was first stunned, then his ears turned completely red. He furrowed his brows and sternly reprimanded, “Nonsense! Know your place. Hurry back to your own home. What kind of talk is this?”

Jiang Qingyue clenched his fist, then suddenly smashed the small wooden table beside the hospital bed, making a loud noise.

Ren Shuhan quivered expressionlessly.

Since when did the little guy he raised become so strong???

“No!” In contrast to his bold actions, Jiang Qingyue showed a look of grievance. “What can you do to me?”

Ren Shuhan found that he really couldn’t do anything to him.

On this day, Jiang Qingyue busied himself around Ren Shuhan the whole day, peeling fruits for him, helping him to the toilet, and in the evening, he brought a towel to wipe his body.

“Go out!”

Ren Shuhan finally couldn’t bear it, his face turning red and pitiful.

Jiang Qingyue liked to see him like this. He thought that the tables had turned, and previously, he used to joke that Ren Shuhan was more calm than himself because of his memories from his previous life. Now, things were different. Only he had the memories from his past life, and he could tease him as he pleased.

Moreover… Jiang Qingyue smiled, thinking, you’ve been domineering only this past month; once my vacation ends, you’ll be done for.

“What’s the matter? You were unconscious for a whole day, and last night, I helped you wipe your body.”

Jiang Qingyue undid his upper garment without saying anything. Anyway, Ren Shuhan couldn’t move his legs, so he could only be at the mercy of others.

Ren Shuhan was completely flustered.

In front of the little guy he had raised since childhood, who had just come of age and was still harboring impure intentions towards himself, he had his clothes taken off. This was too embarrassing!

Jiang Qingyue pressed him down, carefully wiping him clean and feeling the young muscles. The touch was as good as his skin when he was in his thirties. However, he felt psychologically that it was very tender, giving him a feeling that water could spring out…

Ren Shuhan: Kid, can you not rub my chest?

For some reason, no one else came to the ward the entire day. Perhaps it was because Ren Shuhan’s condition wasn’t severe, and there was a reliable junior taking care of him, so he wasn’t disturbed at all. After being played with by Jiang Qingyue, Ren Shuhan laid back in bed, feeling like he had lost his soul.

“Um…” Jiang Qingyue accidentally let out a sigh and quickly rubbed his face against Ren Shuhan’s chest. He got up to wash the towel and said, “By the way, I lied to you about wiping your body yesterday. You were just unconscious for half a day.”

If his legs weren’t immobile, Ren Shuhan would have jumped up and properly lectured him.

Brat, you’ve changed!

After finishing taking care of him, Jiang Qingyue took a shower in the ward’s suite, dried his hair, changed into pajamas, and sat on Ren Shuhan’s bed, saying, “Good night.”

Ren Shuhan: “…don’t…”

Jiang Qingyue had already turned and laid in his arms.

Feeling that his dignity as a guardian was greatly insulted, Ren Shuhan felt very tired. Moreover, the annoying part was that he involuntarily had a reaction, feeling like a beast.

Lying on his pillow, Jiang Qingyue reached out to touch his face and softly said, “Sleep, I’m your good boy. Don’t be afraid. Good night.”

Ren Shuhan couldn’t sleep anymore.

He was wide awake the whole night, only falling asleep towards dawn. Midway through, Jiang Qingyue woke up once, waking him up as well, asking if he wanted to go to the toilet together. Ren Shuhan didn’t want to respond to him, he just rubbed his eyes, trying not to let Jiang Qingyue touch him, and reluctantly said he didn’t want to go.

After three or four days like this, he finally left the hospital and, under Jiang Qingyue’s strong request, moved back to their shared home.

“I finally graduated from high school, I want to have some fun.”

Jiang Qingyue’s words made Ren Shuhan unable to refuse, so he could only accompany him. However, Ren Shuhan doubted the truth of these words. Jiang Qingyue had been staying at home, occasionally playing games, and passionately engaged in cooking every day.

“Don’t you want to go out and play with your classmates?” Ren Shuhan didn’t want him to waste time on himself.

Jiang Qingyue gently smiled and said, “Classmates are not as interesting as Little Uncle.”

Ren Shuhan blushed, couldn’t help but think that he was dealing with a younger person with a psychological age that insisted on being an elder.

Cute XD.

The only problem for Jiang Qingyue was that he could flirt but not go further. It was a bit regrettable, considering the prolonged honeymoon. Now that he had matured physically, it still wasn’t enough for Uncle.

On the day before the end of the vacation, Jiang Qingyue stayed in Ren Shuhan’s bed and refused to leave, saying he wanted to chat under the blanket.

Ren Shuhan tried to leave but was pulled by his arm and shaken. Unable to use force against him and restraining the impulse to retaliate, Ren Shuhan finally had no choice but to lie down with a headache, attempting to create some distance.

Jiang Qingyue looked at his back, sneaking a laugh, and quietly hugged his waist from behind, feeling him tremble.

He knew that his waist was a weakness. Although Ren Shuhan looked strong, he was actually very ticklish. He was extremely sensitive when touched.

“Do you know, I was very angry at first,” Jiang Qingyue nuzzled his back with his nose and whispered, “because you broke your promise. But I got over it quickly because I once dreamed of going back in time, not falling for someone else, but staying by your side. So, I fulfilled my wish during this honeymoon. I’m happy about it, just a little bit sad that I missed you. Fortunately, we’re going back tomorrow, and then you’ll know.”

Ren Shuhan completely didn’t understand what he was saying, so he stiffly forced himself to fall asleep.

The next morning, he was awakened by the voice of the system.

The system said, “This is the residue of the protagonist’s halo from the past. The appearance of Shi Xi, whom the host encountered, is the manifestation of the original world’s will.”

“But wasn’t the halo supposed to be broken?”

Looking at his wife sleeping peacefully in his arms, Ren Shuhan thought, “Now it seems more like I’m the one who’s broken…”

“It’s because of undetected loopholes that it’s called a trial package.”

The system’s current tone made Ren Shuhan feel a bit indignant, like Jiang Qingyue had learned to be proud of being spoiled, sounding like, “Well, I did my best.”

Ren Shuhan was really speechless: “…are you messing with me?”

I thought this was some advanced scheme by Shi Xi, but it turned out to be an inside job?

“And your saying, haven’t you tested other functions?”

“No,” the system said candidly, “You are my first and only host.”

So, could there be future loopholes? It seemed that despite sounding initially invincible, the system wasn’t perfect.

Sure enough, the system said, “Non-trial functions are all self-tested by the system. Only trial packages may have a very small probability of risk.”

Actually, Ren Shuhan had thought before that if the system could perfectly fulfill all his wishes, he would have been able to live a normal life without transmigrating into books.

Who invented the system and why does it exist? Ren Shuhan had asked this question from the beginning, but there was no answer because the system didn’t know. It was deliberately concealed, supposedly for the sake of the host.

It felt like there was a sense of “knowing too much is not good for you.”

Looking at his baby in his arms, Ren Shuhan felt that this caring aspect of the system was actually similar to Jiang Qingyue.

For the first time, he felt curious and wanted to explore further.

The system said, “This system originates from an interstellar civilization. In an interstellar world, you might be able to find the source.”

Then, how about going on an interstellar journey for the next book? Ren Shuhan became interested, but he also wanted Jiang Qingyue to grow up happily, even if he had some quirks, even if he ended up disabled.

However, this time, the system said, “This book has achieved preliminary breakthroughs in overcoming the protagonist’s halo. In the next book, you can further interfere with specific projects. You can choose to invest in the vicinity of the character you want to approach during their childhood.”

Oh, I can see my wife as a dumpling again.

Jiang Qingyue moved in his arms, and Ren Shuhan brushed his hair away from his cheek and kissed his neck.

“Uh, have you remembered?” Jiang Qingyue asked drowsily, pinching his butt, “Don’t press on me.”

Ren Shuhan turned over, hugged him, and took him to the bathroom.

Well, if the next time I enter a new world is during childhood, then let’s remove my memories, Ren Shuhan thought. A genuine childhood sweetheart romance would be better, without the awkwardness of this time.

“Wife, listen to me,” he pecked Jiang Qingyue’s hair from behind, “I didn’t lie to you; it was a bug in the system…”

“Mmm-hmm,” Jiang Qingyue nodded absentmindedly.

“Trust me! It’s true.” Ren Shuhan bit his neck with a whine.



When he woke up again, Ren Shuhan saw a little fairy.

“Are you awake?” The short-haired little fairy, with the upper body unclothed and a shiny blue fishtail on the lower body, spoke in an unclear voice, “I’m Jiang Qingyue. You can call me Qingqing. What’s your name?”

“Kiss1I’m not sure how to explain it without the written characters and in english, but basically he heard qinqin, which is kiss, instead of qingqing which is a cute nickname for Qingyue!?”

At just six years old, the very inexperienced Ren Shuhan was utterly stunned.

And that’s all for the extra updates of this special day
