Am I destined to be cannon fodder? Unlock the system and lead the motherland

Chapter 77 Child Bride?
As soon as the song was finished here, Yun Ximo made a brilliant appearance over there.

She stood in front of the fat aunt, and her aura immediately turned the fat aunt from "domineering" into a "low-key" and "poor" member of the team.

Yun Ximo's face tightened, as if to say, "Don't look at my youth and think I'm easy to pinch." She said slowly, "Look at my scalp! It's a priceless treasure that I've carefully cared for! By pulling it, you're robbing my scalp bank! Friendly price, one thousand yuan. No bargaining, no discounts, no cheating."

The fat lady's wallet seemed to be welded shut, but for the sake of the overall situation, she still tremblingly took out a thousand dollars, with an expression as reluctant as if she was saying goodbye to her own child.

Yun Ximo stretched out her hand readily, as if she was receiving a red envelope, and did not forget to count it, for fear that the fat lady would give her something short of weight.

After counting the last Mao Zedong note, Yun Ximo waved her hand and did not forget to tease the fat aunt: "Hey, aunt, I see that you have suffered a great mental shock. How about I carry forward my style and show some respect by compensating you for your mental damages?"

When the old man heard this, his eyes immediately lit up, and he was about to happily agree "Okay, okay", but the fat lady glared at him fiercely, and he immediately became silent and wilted. The fat lady dragged the old man away as if he was fleeing, and he disappeared in a flash. His previous arrogance had long since disappeared into thin air.

Yun Ximo touched her innocent scalp and smiled like a blooming morning glory.

"Oh, you're running so fast, are you afraid I'll regret it? I was just 'teasing you'! Where's that 'I'm an old man, so I'm right' attitude just now? Why are you deflated so quickly like a deflated ball?"

It seems that the charm of money can make people's expressions change like turning pages of a book!

After finishing speaking, Yun Ximo was about to turn around and leave in a handsome manner. Just as she was about to wait for the system's reward...

Then… the story took a sudden turn, and her gaze met a pair of adorable, heart-melting eyes—a furry, chubby puppy, staring at her through its innocent binoculars with an expression that said, "I'm weak, but I'm sensible." [Superhero sister, your appearance was a bit low-key, but still very cool! Thank you for descending from the sky and delivering a 'delivery of truth' to the police.]
Yun Ximo felt incredibly embarrassed, a bit bewildered by this sudden "thank you ceremony." She squatted down, muttering to herself, "Actually, I just wanted to complete that ridiculous system task. My motives are as pure as water. I never thought of becoming some 'superhero of the dog world.' How come I not only received a good guy card, but also a thank you letter with a dog paw print on it?"

But facing this furry little creature, she thought as she gently stroked the puppy's head, which was filled with innocence and curiosity. "Little one, your 'innocent attack' makes me, a 'premeditated well-meaning person', feel embarrassed. Remember, your future life must be sweeter than chocolate and tougher than bones!"

At this moment, the president of the Animal Protection Association appeared on the scene, with a look of "You are our lucky star" on her face, and said sincerely: "Ms. Yun, you are really our timely help. Without the video you provided, our 'battle for animal rights' would have to fight several more rounds! Who knows how many detours we would have to take!"

Yun Ximo felt both amused and annoyed, but could only maintain a smile on the surface. She thought to herself, "This is a huge misunderstanding. I'm actually just a nobody who was 'abducted by mistake' by the Space-Time Administration."

However, outwardly, she had to maintain her "modesty makes one progress" demeanor, and said very reservedly, "President, you are so kind. This is just a small favor. I am so happy to be able to help our little animals! After all, who can blame me for having a warm heart that loves nature and cares for little animals!"

Yun Ximo turned around and was about to step out of the police station. Wei Qi stood there like a carefully carved handsome statue, motionless and unshakable. His eyes were so confused that they could hold goldfish. He stared at Yun Ximo straight, as if he was studying whether she was a strange species from outer space.

Then, she slowly opened her precious mouth and spoke in a calm tone, "Master Wei, you've seen the excitement and have almost finished your melon, right? What are you doing? Why aren't you leaving yet? Or is it that today is the first time in your dignified eyes that you've witnessed a woman and an old man engaging in a passionate battle for compensation over a trivial matter? The Earth is so vast, have you been living in seclusion on the far side of the moon before?"

Yun Ximo even took a few small steps.

"Hey, buddy, you're standing in a prime spot, blocking my way out of the police station. So, could you please be so kind as to move aside? Hurry up and don't delay my return home."

When the two walked out of the police station one after another, Wei Qi came forward and looked at Yun Ximo from all angles, with a look in his eyes that suggested "Have you forgotten something important?"

Yun Ximo was so frightened by his sudden "human body X-ray scan" that she almost put a note on her forehead saying, "This person has abnormalities, waiting for examination!"

"Did this guy take the wrong medicine? Or is there a sign on my face that says 'I'm from another dimension'? Could it be that he can really tell that the person living in this shell is a transmigrated soul?"

-

She had a smile on her face that said, "I'm an earthling and I don't know anything."

But I was very nervous, afraid that if I wasn't careful, the corner of my mouth would twitch a little and I would let out the huge secret that "I am actually a soul that traveled through time" with a "puff".

You know, in modern society, you can find excuses for being late, such as "I forgot to set the alarm clock" or "The traffic was so congested that even dogs didn't want to stay in the car."

Although these excuses are as lame as leftover food, at least they can be used to fool people.

But what if one day my brain suddenly goes blank and I accidentally say something, "Actually, I was drinking with Li Bai in the Song Dynasty yesterday, and I woke up here today."

I guarantee that it will be taken as the best sample for studying extraterrestrial life in the next second and sent directly to the Academy of Sciences!

I'll arrange a VIP ward for you, oh no, a laboratory.

Just thinking about it makes me sweat.

After all, explaining something like time travel is as difficult as climbing Mount Everest without an oxygen tank, and with your eyes closed!
So, she could only hold it in and use her eyes to convey the message of "I really don't know anything, please let me go."

The magic spell of "time travel without being slapped in the face" can always protect her and prevent the truth from coming too suddenly. After all, no one wants to be the "You who came from the star" in the circle of friends.

Comrade Wei Qi finally opened his precious mouth and said jokingly, "Yun Ximo, has your brain been kidnapped by aliens? Did your memory chip get formatted? Did it just delete all your memories of this super handsome guy like me?"

"When you were little in the Mingjing Family Compound, your dad was often nowhere to be found. You, like a little snail, carried a schoolbag bigger than your body. You were not in a hurry to go home after school. You would play with your friends until dark before you remembered to go home."

"What's even funnier is that you're so gutless, even smaller than a mouse, you don't even dare to walk alone at night and insist on waiting for that brat Bian Chi to pick you up. If he's not available, this glorious yet arduous task will fall on me. You know, I've picked you up from school so many times that I almost thought I was picking up a 'child bride'!"

"..."This guy must have come from the 'Funny Planet', right?

...Damn, a child bride? I guess I even brought an 'old acquaintance' package with me when I traveled through time!

Yun Ximo could only squeeze out a few words: "Are you... a little too confident in yourself?"

Yun Ximo was in the box that day, and Wei Qi really had no impression of her.

As a result, on his way back, he received a call from Bian Chi, and a lightbulb suddenly lit up in his head! He remembered: "Oh, yes, yes! There is such a thing! He knows Yun Ximo."

However, Wei Qi's memory reaction speed is a little slower than the snail in the tortoise race.

Wait, let her think about it. Did the original owner know that kid Wei Qi when she was a child?

But then again, those were the original owner's 'glorious days' of childhood, and have nothing to do with me, Yun Ximo, now!

Wei Qi inherited the mess left behind by the previous owner. She was just a 'physical upgrade package', but her memory had been drastically updated to the latest version. A brief summary of the past? Sorry, the system has automatically deleted it and cannot be restored!

So, who is Wei Qi? How much does he weigh? Sorry, I don’t even have a single “unread email” in my mind for him!

Although I have taken over this body, we have to make it clear and have clear boundaries. I am me and the original owner is the original owner. Apart from this layer of skin, our souls are as far apart as the South Pole to the North Pole, and we are two completely different people!

Just like you can’t expect me to like the candy you ate as a child, times have changed and tastes must also be upgraded!

As for Wei Qi, the original owner knew him, but I don't! If he comes to me to reminisce about the past, I'll give him a set of 'amnesia technique' and let him know what it means to be 'this Yun Ximo is not that Yun Ximo'. I guarantee that he will be completely confused and doubt his life forever!
As for my mood, I instantly jumped from "What the hell is going on?" to "Whatever happens, I'm very calm."

Wei Qi saw Yun Ximo wandering in the void, staring straight ahead, not knowing which galaxy she was wandering to.

He approached quietly, then "bang", and knocked her on the head with his knuckles.

Are you practicing some kind of unique trance technique? Or has your soul drifted off for a stroll and forgotten how to get back?

Yun Ximo was suddenly brought back to her senses by his blow. She rubbed her "attacked" forehead and pushed him away: "What are you doing? Murdering brain cells! Do you want to hold a funeral for my brain cells? They are not ready to retire!"

Wei Qi pretended to be serious and said, "This isn't just a knock. This is a high-end memory test service, custom-made to treat all kinds of mind wandering. But then again, what are you thinking about? Have you forgotten even the embarrassing moments from your childhood?"

Yun Ximo muttered, "You're talking about 'my childhood'! Back then, my memory was still struggling with ants, how could I possibly remember it?"

Wei Qi smirked, "It seems your brain is a shrewd editor. It's quietly deleted all the embarrassing dark history. But don't be too happy. One day, I'll get inspired and make a 'memory archaeological discovery' to bring your dark history back to the surface, like a 'memory bombardment'!"

Yun Ximo rolled her eyes. "Humph, I won't let those old trivial matters bother me anymore. I need to quickly install a 'memory eraser' in your brain and erase all your memories of me as a child with one click!"

She rummaged through the boxes and drawers in her mind, trying to fish out the remaining fragments of Wei Qi from the original owner's chaotic memory.

"Let me help you recall. When I strolled into the high school, I saw you. You were being chased all over the playground by Bian Chi. In the end, you were beaten up like the panda twins. You were so angry that you threw your schoolbag into the ditch and took a muddy bath. If your schoolbag could talk, it would probably scold you for the whole year!"

Yun Ximo shook her head as she spoke: "Filters? Can you please not use them harder than the beauty camera? Be careful not to strain your back."

Wei Qi immediately switched to "hurt little white rabbit" mode when his dark past was suddenly revealed. He covered his heart with his hands, his handsome face full of grief and sorrow. "Your memory is definitely in the realm of 'selective amnesia'. 'A hero never brags about past achievements.' It's not too late for us to re-acquaint ourselves now. Who doesn't have some youthful and reckless 'dark history' that is too painful to look back on?"

Unexpectedly, a hidden "treasure street" was discovered right under the majestic nose of the police station.

"The sugar-roasted chestnuts are fresh from the pan, hot and fragrant. I guarantee that one bite will be so sweet that it will make you instantly forget your mother's name. The sweetness will penetrate deep into your soul, like a sweet dream!"

The hawker shouted loudly, fearing that the cats and dogs in the next street would not know that there was good stuff here.

"Big sale on fresh fruit! If it's not sweet, it's free. If it's not crispy or fresh, it's free! Every fruit I have is carefully selected, guaranteed to be so sweet you can't stop drooling. It's even more addictive than falling in love!"

The eldest sister’s fruits were piled up like a small mountain, colorful and dazzling, making people happy.

Customers and vendors bargain back and forth, and the price fluctuates by a penny.

"Boss, can you give me a discount on these chestnuts? You've almost counted all the coins in my pocket!"

A customer pretended to be pitiful and tried to impress the vendor with humor.
