Lu Ning stared at the person in front of her in disbelief.
Why was it her?
Ban Lan was as shocked as Lu Ning.
The person who saved them that time was Jiang Xue? Du Jiâs Jiang Xue?
âTake a look at her injury first,â Ming Shu told Assistant He.
Assistant He asked two people to bring Lu Ning away.
Ban Lan laid on the chair weakly. âYou... why are you...â
Why is she Du Jiâs boss?
Ming Shu smiled casually. âAre you disappointed?â
Ban Lan shook his head.
He just couldnât believe that she was Du Jiâs boss.
Someone gave Ban Lan food. Ban Lan thanked them with his hoarse voice.
His experience over the past few days was something he never dreamt of having. Now, when he hugged this bowl of hot porridge, he felt like crying.
But, he couldnât.
He was a man!
Lu Ning finished dressing her wound and came out. Ming Shu didnât have any intention of talking to them so she asked her men to take over and walked away with Ye Ji.
...
The next day, when Ming Shu got up, Lu Ning was already sitting outside.
No one had woken up yet. It was very quiet. The gunshots had stopped sounding too.
The entire world seemed peaceful.
Ming Shu poured herself a glass of water and said, âYou woke up early. Seems like your energy is not bad.â
Lu Ningâs face was pale. She pursed her lips. âCan you tell me whatâs happening?â
She didnât believe the rumors that were spreading outside.
Now, after seeing her, she confirmed that things were not as simple as it seemed. Maybe it was because she had a good impression of this lady who saved her so she felt that she was not the kind of person they said she was.
Also...
Lu Ning was depressed, but she didnât know who she could speak to.
Ming Shu pulled a chair and sat opposite her. She smiled. âYi Xi would attack us sooner or later. I just sped up the process.â
Lu Ning opened her mouth slightly. She didnât know what to say.
Her throat was dry. âWhy... why?â Why is Yi Xi doing this?
âWhy? That is what the storyline is. There is no reason.â
Lu Ning got a shock. Her face turned white.
Ming Shu was puzzled. Was there something wrong with what she said just now? Why was the female protagonist so frightened?n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âIs your body okay? If not, go and have a rest. This place is safe...â
Lu Ning looked at her weirdly.
âYou know this too?â
Ming Shu: â...â
What?
Ming Shu was confused.
Lu Ning asked her again, âIs this true?â
Ming Shu: â...â
I canât understand what the female protagonist is saying.
âWhat do you mean?â Ming Shu asked. âWhat thing is true?â
Lu Ningâs expression changed slightly. She held her glass tightly. She seemed anxious. âWhat do you mean by the storyline?â
âIâm saying that the original storyline was like this...â Ming Shu paused. âWhat were you talking about just now?â
Lu Ning looked up.
Time seemed to have paused.
Lu Ning shifted her gaze away. She swallowed and realized that her throat was dry. She took two big gulps of water.
âHave you heard about... the world resetting?â
...
Lu Ning said that she met someone in the past who told her that the world they lived in would keep resetting.
Someone among them realized this secret and wanted to resist it.
However, only a small portion of people knew about this. The other 99% didnât know this secret.
They thought that they had been living in this world for a long time but in actual fact, they were just characters that kept resetting. Even their memory was set from the start.
Everything would flow according to the original storyline.
There would definitely be a war between the East District and the West District.
There was no specific time for the resetting of their world. She only knew that it was after the war.
However, no matter who won the war, everything would still be reset.
âThe person said that we are like the NPCs in a game. When the time comes, we will be reset. The lifespan card is like our identity card.â
Ming Shu ate two mouthfuls of snacks to calm herself down. âThis is too much information for me.â
I feel a little afraid!
Why canât the storyline be simpler?
Why does it have to be so complicated!
Lu Ning smiled bitterly. When the person told her this for the first time, she felt that it was nonsense too. Why would their world be like this?
Yet, she couldnât deny that the lifespan cards and the fact that they could snatch lifespan were weird. In their memory, these two things were perfectly justified.
Didnât she say something about a storyline just now?
âWhat is the storyline youâre talking about?â Since she didnât know this, what does she mean just now?
âYou might not believe what I say.â Ming Shu gave a mysterious smile. âI know whatâs going to happen in the future.â
Lu Ning nodded as she thought about it.
Ming Shu: â...â Did her chef that couldnât cook believe her?
Lu Ning expressed that she believed what Ming Shu said.
After all, things like resetting the world had already come out.
What else couldnât happen?
Ming Shu thought about her fatherâs weird attitude and remembered the call he gave her...
Did her father know about the world resetting? That was why he asked her to enjoy her life, right?
He even specially called her before the war started to bid farewell to her. He had nothing to worry about anyway. After the world reset, she was still his daughter.
Iâve never seen a father like this!
Ming Shu was curious. âYou said that some people knew this setting and wanted to resist it. Will their memory be reset too?â
Lu Ning shook her head. âI donât know. Probably... not.â
If not, how would they know that everything had reset?
Ming Shu felt that she needed to eat a few more snacks after hearing such huge news in the morning.
Lu Ning hesitated before asking, âDo you think... that this is true?â
Ming Shu replied honestly, âIâve never experienced it. Iâm not sure.â
âDidnât you say that you know whatâs going to happen?â
âI know that there will be a war.â
â...â
Lu Ning and Ming Shu stared at each other.
They only looked away when someone came.
âDonât think too much.â Ming Shu got up and patted Lu Ning. âMaybe youâre here to save the world? All the best!â
The female protagonist is responsible for doing this, right?
The protagonist is here to save the world!
Lu Ning: â???â
Ming Shu hummed a tune as she walked away. Lu Ning was in a daze. Why did she seem so nonchalant? Was she not worried? Was she not curious about what the truth was? Was she not interested to know why the world was like this?
Why did she encourage her?
She was still confused now.
Once again, Lu Ning felt that Ming Shu was weird.
Whether it was her attitude or her person, or... how she was able to let Du Ji remain safe under the attack of the West District.
