"Didn't I tell you to go to bed early? Why are you still staying up?"
Although Xilin hates all human beings in the world, she doesn't have any good emotions at all.
But he won't get angry with the magic cat.
"I went to bed, but it was a bit too cold to sleep." She pursed her lips which were slightly purple from the cold and said so.
Chapter 2 Mother, Mother (Five in One)
"I went to bed, but it was too cold to sleep." Xilin said while huddled in the quilt.
At this time, she was not yet the Herrscher of the Sky who looked down upon the world, nor was she the high and mighty queen. She was just a poor little girl who was even more pitiful than the little match girl.
When the fire in the house burns out, it will naturally become cold.
Even a person with a heart of stone would soften his heart to some extent after seeing this kind of scene.
Lu Mian couldn't help feeling distressed and sad, so he stretched out his little paws and gently placed them on Xilin's quilt.
For a moment, a warm white light flickered.
Xilin suddenly didn't feel cold anymore.
Seeing this, she was stunned at first, then said happily:
"Mian, you are capable of this. I never thought that. Please stop worrying about me and go see my mother, okay?"
At the end, he actually begged people in a gentle voice.
Such true love between mother and daughter made Lu Mian, who actually had not experienced much mother-son love, inexplicably shocked.
He was silent for a moment, and then he whispered with some unknown emotion:
"It's okay, I'll take good care of you. My ability can last for a whole night, so don't worry about the distribution."
After saying that, he jumped off the bed and walked out of the room.
After walking out of Xilin's bedroom, Lu Mian, who felt a little depressed for no reason, walked all the way to the door of Meiya's room opposite.
Because it's a cat, there's no need to be shy about the difference between men and women. Just push the door open and go in.
[To be honest, you are gradually beginning to adapt to the body of this most magical magical cat. ]
[If a person were to suddenly turn into a cat, his life would be filled with inconvenience and distress.]
[But if it turns into a magic cat, it will be a completely different scene. ]
【Not only will it not change, it will also be very cool. 】
[Yeah, it’s cool in every sense of the word.]
[Because this is the most magical magic cat, not only does it have unimaginable extraordinary abilities, it also has the ability to teleport at will, and other than that, it doesn't need to consider the need for food or water at all. ]
[It is even more magical than the Void Ten Thousand Treasures! ]
[The magic of the magic cat is amazing, isn’t it? 】
After pushing open the door of Mei Ya's room, Lu Mian walked in quietly, but it was completely useless - because the other party was not asleep either.
Looking at the mother and daughter huddled in the quilt in unison, he sighed softly.
I don’t know how many times I sighed.
Mei Ya was startled when she saw Lu Mian coming, then she opened the quilt a little to accommodate the kitten, "Mr. Cat, are you too cold to sleep? Sorry, please come in and warm yourself up, ahem."
Before he could finish his words, he started coughing violently, and as he coughed up blood.
Seeing this scene, Lu Mian, who thought that he could handle anything calmly due to his life experience and achievements, was indescribably flustered for a moment.
After all, he had never seen such a scene before.
Logically speaking, it should be him who is lying there coughing up blood.
This time I was caught off guard. I won’t do it again.
Lu Mian, who was really flustered, nimbly jumped onto Meiya's bed.
The little paws clapped again and again, trying to keep warm and add a shield, but in the end it was just a drop in the bucket.
[Originally, the magic cat can heal people, but your magic cat is the latest version of the magic cat, and the designer has cut down on its mechanism and it can only provide shields.]
[How can a shield alone cure an incurable disease? ]
Yes, how can a shield alone cure an incurable disease?
Mei Ya, whose body had warmed up a lot but was still in excruciating pain, looked at Lu Mian who was frantically casting a spell, and actually forced a smile while holding back the pain.
This treatment is about healing in the heart.
She smiled softly with a bloodshot face, her voice soothing like a mother's caress and comforting, "Mr. Cat, it's okay. I've known for a long time that this disease of mine is incurable. I just hope you don't tell Xilin about this. She's still young, and I don't want her to suffer too much. Let's keep it to yourself for now."
After saying this, he actually moved his body and broke free from the quilt that had become very warm.
Maybe this warmth also warms my heart.
Mei Ya broke free from the bed and ignored Lu Mian's gaze. She dragged her sick body and knelt down, "Mr. Cat, perhaps my request is very rude, but if anything happens to me, please take care of Xilin's child.
"She is still young and cannot bear such heavy pressure alone."
Lu Mian did not respond, and did not even turn aside out of courtesy to avoid being kneeled down.
In other words, he no longer had the ability to react at this moment.
[The world is truly amazing. Some mothers abandon their children like orphans, while others give up all their dignity, face, and everything they have for their children.]
[Isn't this disparity a bit too huge? ]
[You no longer have much energy to denounce or belittle the former; but you will inevitably have a deep respect for the latter. ]
[And——an equal amount of envy. ]
[Some people once said: Some people use their childhood to heal their whole life, while others use their whole life to heal their childhood.]
【Now it seems that this is indeed true. 】
Lu Mian responded to Mei Ya's kneeling gesture with his eyes flashing. Finally, he used his strength to condense a pair of invisible big hands to grab Mei Ya and stuff her into the quilt.
The tone was calm but unquestionable:
"If you are asking me to take care of you and your daughter, I will agree. As for your own daughter, you should take care of her yourself."
As he was talking, he took out something and shoved it into the other person's mouth.
Looking closely, isn't this exactly the half bottle of healing potion that was left behind when Wuliangta Jizi was treated?
After taking half a bottle of healing potion, Maya, who had originally looked pale and sick and looked as if she would not live long, actually recovered.
My waist and legs no longer feel sore, and I can walk ten laps in one breath.
Meiya curled up in the exceptionally warm bed, feeling that although her body still felt a little painful, it was much better than before, and she was speechless for a moment.
Just, is it just that good?
[In fact, that small half bottle of healing potion is not enough to completely cure Meiya's incurable disease.]
[And this potion is good for treating diseases like Himeko Muryota, who can still survive but not well. 】
[The treatment for Meiya's disease, which is fatal, is not very effective. 】
[But it doesn’t matter. ]
[You still have the Black Abyss White Flower, don't you? ]
[You are now strong enough, strong enough to rewrite all the tragic endings you don't want to see by yourself. ]
【Whether it is you or the people around you. 】
【No one will be in trouble.】
Mei Ya, who was mostly cured, knew who deserved the credit, and couldn't help but express her gratitude to Lu Mian.
Lu Mian agreed with peace of mind.
As she thanked him, Meiya asked softly with a hint of excitement, as if she had suddenly discovered a blind spot:
"Mr. Cat, can you warm up the quilt? Then can you please leave me alone and go see that child Xilin?"
Hiss——this mother and daughter.
Lu Mian, feeling disappointed again, choked up, as if he didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "My dear wife, do you want to guess where I came from just now?
"Don't worry, my ability is permanent. You will feel as warm as if you were hugged by me all night long."
After saying that, he didn't care and went into Maya's bed.
He would rather be close to Meiya than to Xilin, who always seemed to have some unspeakable problems.
Mei Ya, who was kind and gentle, could obviously sense what was on Lu Mian's mind, so she was not in a hurry to go to bed. Instead, she murmured softly as if in a dream:
"That's great. Since we met Mr. Cat, everything has been good for me and Xilin."
"Hmm, there's nothing to be sad about. It will be like this in the future." Lu Mian, who obviously had no intention of sleeping, did not show it on his face, but gave this assurance.
At the same time, we also shoulder a responsibility that is difficult to describe in words, which is neither light nor heavy.
Hearing this, Meiya stammered and asked again:
"Then how can we repay you?"
“If you really want to repay me, then continue to live well, live happily, and don’t let my help go to waste.” After saying that, Lu Mian shrank back, as if he had no intention of continuing the conversation.
Of course, the night is still long. Who knows if there will be any more conversations between the two people, uh, one person and one cat, sleeping in the same bed.
But that is not something that can be told to outsiders.
[You have to admit that you, who are usually only inspired and motivated by the love that is visible and tangible and belongs to you alone, are inevitably moved by the sincere feelings between the mother and daughter in front of you.]
[Just consider it as a thank you gift. You will help them. ]
【...】
【After spending so many days together, you gradually begin to show your magical qualities. 】
[First, with the help of an unknown bishop in white bishop's robes, Maya and Xilin's embarrassing financial situation was improved.]
[He used the money to expand the cabin, which had many leaks and was not warm. He removed all the wooden boards and replaced them with cement. He also added a warm insulation layer and a luxurious fireplace.]
[It is a direct replacement of a shotgun with a cannon. 】
[At the same time, the food was greatly improved to ensure that Meiya and Xilin, the poor mother and daughter, would not suffer from malnutrition as before.]
[It’s simple, right? ]
[The life that was almost unbearable suddenly became happy and full of hope. 】
[The house is no longer as dilapidated and leaky as before. It has become a place where even a tank-level Honkai beast would have to step on it twice before it can be broken.]
[My diet has also improved, with a balanced diet of meat and vegetables. ]
[The only thing that poor people lack to achieve such a change in life is money, money that they cannot survive without.]
[Although you are not as rich as in your previous life, you still have the help of the Fool, right? ]
[Isn't it humorous to use his money to support Meiya and Xilin, the mother and daughter who are completely at odds with him? 】
[Time passed, and several months passed in a flash. ]
Night, Siberian plains, luxury cabin.
In the luxurious cement cottage which had undergone a tremendous transformation from the beginning, Lu Mian, Mei Ya and Xilin sat around a candlelit table and enjoyed dinner together.
On the ceiling, the chandelier swayed gently, and the dim warm light reflected from it sprinkled gently, looking a little dreamy.
In the luxurious and heavy-looking fireplace next to it, the charcoal was crackling in the flames, and the licking flames made the whole body warm, making one feel very comfortable unconsciously.
Although Lu Mian had no need to eat or drink, it was still no problem for him to have a meal with his family.
After all, it's a magical cat, so nothing is strange.
At the same time, he had completely adapted to the cat's body and even enjoyed it a little.
This new life, completely different from the previous one, may be the true meaning of repeated simulations.
Of course, if he could avoid the humor that would make even a fool smile every time they met, he would not refuse.
