Chapter 374 - If Ning Zhi would have seen the little black clouds over Lu Jue's head if she was there. (1)
Edited by: Lulu

“Can I exchange that with little suns?” Ning Zhi knew that Overlord loved the little suns. “I still have over 3,000 little suns. I can give them all to you, as long as you can bring back Lu Jue’s memory.”

Overlord stammered: [No, I can’t.]

“5,000 little suns.”

“What about 8,000 little suns?”

Ning Zhi gritted her teeth. “10,000 little suns. I want Lu Jue’s memory back.”

Overlord gulped: [Host, there’s still an extra assignment that has not yet been unlocked after you had completed your last assignment.]

Ning Zhi was taken aback a little. “Didn’t you tell me that my last trip was also going to be my final trip? There’s another one?”

Overlord: [I didn’t lie to you about that, Host. Your last trip was, indeed, the last assignment, and Lu Jue’s illness was fully cured. The extra assignment that was still locked has no impact on Lu Jue’s condition and, as such, can be omitted.]

Ning Zhi remained silent for a little while before she asked, “What kind of an assignment is it? Will Lu Jue regain his memory if I complete that assignment?”

Overlord: [The timeline of the assignment is in the future. You will need to stop Lu Jue from committing suicide. If you fail, there will be no impact. If you succeed, Host will receive a reward.]

Ning Zhi’s heart sank a little when she heard Overlord’s words.

She remembered Lu Jue’s ending in the novel was dying from self-inflicted injuries.

“Now that Lu Jue has recovered, he will not be hurting himself. What is with that future now?” Ning Zhi had a lot of questions.

Overlord: [I am not sure about that either. Regardless, you will need to spend 20,000 little suns for the extra assignment.]

Ning Zhi, “……”

Ruthless.

Overlord said in an appeasing way: [This will be a very difficult assignment, and the chance of success is low. All 20,000 little suns will be lost if you fail. Lu Jue had already recovered. You can totally start afresh with Lu Jue all over again. There is no reason to hang on to the past.]

From Overlord’s perspective, there was no reason for Ning Zhi to try to complete the extra assignment. Even the system didn’t feel that it was an important assignment, which was why it was filed away somewhere remote and also why Overlord had overlooked it in the past.

Ning Zhi gritted her teeth. “Are you sure that you don’t have a physical body?”

Overlord’s little milky voice suddenly sounded shy: [Host wishes to see me?]

“I want to give you a good beating.”

Overlord: [Host, we do not have a physical form.]

The night had turned deeper.

The Lu’s had returned to its usual quietness after the banquet was over.

Laying down in bed, Lu Jue’s eyes were shut tight.

He saw that inside the room, he was in his red sports gear, and his arms were around his pillow. He looked at the girl whose face he could not make out and said to her, “Sleep together.”

“Must sleep together.”

Not able to turn down his request, the girl agreed.

He happily held her hand and brought her over to the bed.

After they had laid down, he could not sleep with the hint of light fragrance that he could detect. He felt as though a little claw was scratching at his chest.

He scooted over to the girl and pasted himself up against her back. He mumbled softly, “Odd Big Sister, want to kiss.”

The girl turned to face him. He saw the limpid black eyes curved. She was a little vixen. She teased him purposefully. “Kiss where?”

He had yet to be able to talk when the girl planted her overly soft lips between his eyes.

His heart shuddered.

Then, it was his nose.

The girl was mean. She avoided his lips purposefully and went on to kiss him on his chin.

Lu Jue could feel his heart beating madly.

“More?” The girl’s rich red lips curved upward.

Lu Jue gulped. He couldn't help but reach his hand out and place it on the back of the girl’s head, his Adam's apple rolling up and down uncontrollably.

He heard the hoarseness in his own voice. “Kiss me, Zhizhi.”

The girl’s eyes curved as she smiled.

Lu Jue could see from her eyes how he had lifted his own head. His face was full of indulgence and greed. “Zhizhi, Zhizhi……”

He tasted the sweetness in the girl’s mouth.

He indulged and took as much as he could.

Lu Jue abruptly opened his eyes when he felt a tingling sensation from the back of his tailbone. He felt that was about to go mad.
