He remembered how Yangyang had run over with the painting in her hand, her eyes sparkling, and said, "Aunt Bai said she'll take us to the park next time."

Yangyang hadn't been this happy in a long time.

Since her mother left, Yangyang has become a bit quiet and doesn't play with other children much at kindergarten.

Now she has Niannian, and Aunt Bai who is willing to play with her and cook noodles for her.

Xing Yun took a deep breath, trying to clear her mind of the troubles.

If Bai Zhiqing was truly just being kind, then he should thank her.

If she has ulterior motives...

His fingers unconsciously touched the summoner in his satchel.

Then we'll meet force with force.

But he didn't want it to be the latter.

Yangyang needs a normal childhood, an aunt who can play with her, and a friend who can make her laugh.

He didn't want these things to be associated with the messy affairs of the supernatural world.

Xing Yun turned around and walked back to the living room, tidied up the dishes and chopsticks on the table, and put them in the kitchen.

As he passed Yangyang's room, he gently pushed open the door and peeked inside.

Yangyang was already asleep. The painting was hanging above her bed, and a slight smile lingered on her lips.

Xing Yun stood at the door for a while, then gently closed the door.

He went back to his room, lay on his bed, and stared at the ceiling.

My right shoulder started to ache again.

He rolled over, turning his injured side upwards to reduce the pressure.

My mind is filled with too many jumbled thoughts, and I can't sort them out in a short time.

Let's talk about Bai Zhiqing's matter tomorrow.

Xing Yun closed her eyes, and her consciousness began to blur.

In a half-dreaming, half-awake state, he vaguely felt something on the table make a sound.

But he was so tired that his eyelids felt like they were filled with lead. He turned over and fell into a deep sleep.

In the system space, Lu Zhuo looked at the panel.

The number above is still 99.8, but that "0.2" is like a thorn, making him feel uncomfortable all over.

"No." He stood up, turned around twice in the space, and said, "We can't wait any longer."

Lu Zhuo glanced at the Bone of Walderley in the corner, then at the Level 1 label on the panel.

"It's just a little bit short... I'll just go out and find something to suck on."

Lu Zhuo's consciousness stirred, and an invisible hand slowly unzipped the bag, revealing the armor summoner inside.

The next second, the summoner flew out of the bag, rushed out of Xing Yun's room, and flew directly outside through the balcony.

Once outside, Lu Zhuo first climbed upwards, then scanned downwards with his eyes, searching for a suitable target to absorb.

Although it's very late, there are still quite a few pedestrians outside.

For young people, nightlife is just beginning.

It's quite difficult to find a secluded spot to smoke without attracting attention.

After flying in the air for almost a minute, Lu Zhuo noticed a construction site across the road. A sign on the fence read "Construction, Do Not Enter," and inside there were piles of steel bars and iron pipes.

Lu Zhuo flew over the fence and down, where he saw a pile of building materials in a mess.

Steel bars, iron pipes, steel plates, scrap scaffolding...

His eyes lit up.

"This stuff is great!"

These substances are of much higher quality than regular iron, and the absorption time is much shorter.

Lu Zhuo randomly picked up a piece of dusty steel plate that had been discarded on the ground and stuck it on.

"Upgrade Points +0.08"

"Upgrade Points +0.08"

…………

It didn't take long for Lu Zhuo to collect the upgrade points needed for the upgrade.

He then brought up the control panel.

"Summoning System"

"Host: Lu Zhuo"

Level: 1

Upgrade time: 9:59 AM

"Form: Armor Summoner"

Summoner: Xing Yun

Summoner Compatibility: 6/10

"Next level required: 0.12/200"

"It will take time to upgrade to level two." Lu Zhuo frowned, his brows barely visible.

Compared to the first instant upgrade, he didn't expect this second one to be so troublesome.

At this moment, the crystal light in the center of the summoner outside slowly dimmed, clearly indicating that it could not be used.

Not only that, Lu Zhuo's consciousness is now filled with drowsiness. As long as he relaxes and falls asleep, the difference between the summoner and the brick will be that the shape is different.

"No, we have to go back." Lu Zhuo perked up.

The summoner, which was attached to the steel plate, flew up instantly and returned to Xing Yun's house along the same route.

Back inside the bag, then zip it up.

……

The next morning, at six o'clock.

Xing Yun was woken up by the alarm clock.

He reached for his phone on the bedside table.

I glanced at my phone; it was 6:10.

Yangyang goes to school at 7:30, so he has plenty of time.

Xing Yun sat up, picked up her handbag, and unzipped it.

The anomaly of the summoner was immediately noticed.

He frowned and examined the summoner several times, turning it over and over.

The crystal on top wasn't shining.

Xing Yun tried to transform, but this time the belt did not appear.

He recalled a noise he heard next to him just as he was falling asleep last night.

"This is troublesome." Xing Yun's expression became complicated as he stuffed the summoner back into his bag.

It just so happens to be at this time.

Xing Yun got up to wash up. The injury on her right shoulder was much better than yesterday; at least it didn't hurt when she raised her arm.

He went out and bought some steamed buns and soy milk to bring back for breakfast today.

Then at 7 o'clock, he went to Yangyang's room and woke her up.

Yangyang was still groggy when he woke her up, but the smell of steamed buns woke her up.

"Dad, is Aunt Bai giving me and Niannian a ride today?" Yangyang sat at the dining table, holding a vegetable bag bigger than her hand in one hand, while her feet dangled restlessly under the table.

"Dad will take you there." Xing Yun sat opposite him. "Dad's off today, it's on his way."

"Oh." Yangyang didn't think much of it and continued eating the large vegetable bun, getting her mouth all greasy.

After breakfast, Xing Yun took Yangyang out.

Go down the stairs.

Bai Zhiqing was holding Su Nian's hand, standing at the top of the stairs, seemingly about to go up. When she saw them, she paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "Good morning."

"Good morning." Xing Yun nodded, his gaze lingering on her face for a second.

"I was just about to go up to find you, but I didn't expect you to come down here so soon."

Bai Zhiqing smiled and said, "Then let's go together."

The two little girls were already running ahead hand in hand.

Xing Yun and Bai Zhiqing walked side by side behind, half a step apart.

"Is your injury better?" Bai Zhiqing asked.

"Much better."

"That's good." She didn't ask any further questions.

As Xing Yun approached the entrance of the residential compound, he parked the electric scooter he had brought from the management bureau.

Bai Zhiqing caught a glimpse of the electric scooter out of the corner of her eye, and her expression changed almost imperceptibly, as if she had remembered something.

There were few words exchanged along the way, and before long they arrived at the kindergarten.

The two children glanced back at Xing Yun and Bai Zhiqing, said goodbye, and then ran past the kindergarten teacher into the kindergarten.

After delivering the child, Bai Zhiqing made an excuse to part ways with Xing Yun.
