Chapter 876 Wait
Chapter 876 Wait
At night, Buyer leaned on Jiang Li's shoulder.
For some reason, she became more sleepy as it got darker.
"what happened?"
Jiang Li tightened his grip around Buyer's arm. He also sensed something was wrong with Buyer.
"A little...sleepy..."
Buyer squinted his eyes slightly and felt his eyelids growing heavier.
[The body has been repaired, but it's a new body. The Tree King needs some time to adapt. Although the adaptation time is long, I have changed the flow of time above. It will only take one day tomorrow.]
The system's voice appeared in everyone's mind, which also turned Ying and the others' attention to Jiang Li and Buyer.
I thought they were just showing off their affection, but I didn't expect it to be this reason.
"Mother."
Nashida hesitated to move closer. She wanted to go over but... she felt it would be better to leave her parents alone at this time.
"Siyu is here~"
Seeing this, Buyer chuckled and reached out to hold Nashida in his arms.
"Let me hug you again with this body. The next time we meet will be a real reunion."
Buyer hugged Nashida tightly and gently stroked her head with his hand.
"Well, I'll wait for you."
Nashida hugged her mother obediently.
After letting go of Nashida, Buyer leaned in Jiang Li's arms, his body becoming increasingly weak.
"Go to sleep if you are tired."
Jiang Li hugged her and looked at Buyer's tired appearance. He couldn't help but think of the past.
Was Buyer also so powerless when he was at the World Tree?
But I couldn't be with her at that time.
I can't give her support like today. How tiring must it be for her to persevere alone?
"Well... I'm going to sleep, will you cry secretly~"
Buyer looked up and saw Jiang Li's serious expression. She understood what Jiang Li was thinking.
They have been together for so long, how could she not understand him.
"How is that possible? What nonsense are you thinking about?"
Jiang Li chuckled and raised his hand to pinch her cheek while it was still warm and soft.
"Well, I know you very well."
"Of course, it's been so many years after all."
After saying that, for some reason, the two of them fell silent. No one spoke, they just sat there quietly.
"...Wait for me a little longer, okay?"
Finally, before closing his eyes, Buyer whispered softly.
Although it was a question, there was no doubt in her tone. She knew that Jiang Li would definitely wait for her.
After saying this, Bujer closed his eyes.
The soul completely left and returned to the newly created body. The puppet leaning on Jiang Li also returned to its original form and was quickly taken back by the system.
But he still persisted in the action just now, looking at the sky for a long time...
"I've waited all these years... These few days won't make a difference..."
This simple sentence contained all his longing over the years.
Then he lowered his head and sighed softly, holding Nashida in his arms.
"Let's wait together for your mother to come back."
"it is good."
I don’t know why this scene seemed familiar to Ying.
By the way, this is just like the memory she once saw in Jingshan Palace, and at this moment the system also allows netizens to see this memory.
Little Nashida sat at the door, her chin in her hands, shaking her head expectantly, waiting for her mother to come home.
As spring goes and autumn comes, the picture gradually changes.
I don’t know how much time passed, the child was still the same child, but there was no expectation in her eyes. The lost child still insisted on sitting there.
It seems that the longer I hold on, the greater the chance that my mother will come back.
At the end of each scene, Jiang Li slowly walked to Nashida's side, hugged her and waited with her.
He patted her back gently while waiting, and would sit for a while longer until the child in his arms slowly closed his eyes and fell asleep.
At the very end, Jiang Li stood up and walked inside holding Nashida.
The moment he returned to the inner room, he would inadvertently look towards the door.
Perhaps, his desire for the man to push the door and come back was even stronger than Nashida's.
[No?! You guys are giving out knives?!]
[Why don't you guys just give me some dog food? I prefer the balanced food with meat and vegetables. This knife thing is too hard to chew, woo woo woo.]
[???, photographers, we also provide the pictures, wuwuwuwu, I want to cry.]
[Fuck, I'm going to cry my heart out.]
[This video really makes me want to cry. How could this be? Siyu and the anchor have been waiting for her to come home.]
[The upstairs people are calm, it won't be long before their family is reunited.]
[As a mother, I really can't bear to see this scene. How many years has Siyu waited?]
Just like countless times before, Nashida gradually fell asleep in Jiang Li's arms.
Jiang Li looked up at the sky. The stars were blocked by the leaves, and he could only see a little bit by looking far away.
This is really, exactly the same as Xumi back then...
Tsk, why is the sense of déjà vu getting stronger lately?
It must be that damn system's script that started causing trouble again, causing him to almost have water elements overflowing from his eyes.
How embarrassing that is.
Time passed quietly, and when Jiang Li came to his senses again, it was already dawn...
"This is really a bit too much."
Jiang Li shook his head in self-mockery. It had been such a long time.
I have been waiting for such a long time, why am I still like this?
Buyer... I really miss you...
[Host, don't worry, it'll only take one day.]
(Yeah, I know.)
【and you... ...】
(It’s okay. By the way, do you have to wait until the two worlds merge before you can change into a puppet body and live?)
[No, it's just more convenient this way until then.]
(Then let’s change it. You’ve been waiting for her with me for a long time.)
They are a family, so it is normal for them to wait for the system to recover together.
【Okay, let’s wait together.】
Then the system's voice disappeared from Jiang Li's mind, and after that, Jiang Li found that some electronic screens appeared in his mind.
He can also control those screens and spaces.
I've separated the system from the agent. The system binds us together, so even if I'm not by your side, you can still use it if you need it.
(Then can I still call you in my heart?)
[Of course! I'm always here as long as you need me.]
A few hours later, a door appeared in front of Jiang Li and the others.
"Is that guy really going to come over and wait with us? Isn't he a social phobia?"
"Isn't it good?"
The system wants a reasonable and compliant identity. He can easily achieve compliance, but to be reasonable, he still needs Ying and others to help perform in front of netizens.
