About how my wife resurrected me as tentacles after my death.

There's nothing we can do if we can't get it in.

Chen Yuan was gently removed by Yu Wan, and could only watch helplessly as his 19 experience points disappeared.

But he was more concerned about Yu Wan's expression.

She lowered her head, her eyelashes drooping down to cover her scarlet eyes.

Her fingers were still unconsciously clenched, a small gesture she made when she was nervous or sad.

Chen Yuan shifted slightly.

"Pfft."

He leaned closer and gently kissed her hand.

Yu Wan was also taken aback.

She looked up at the small tentacles lying beside her hand.

It was purple, soft, and the tips of its tentacles were still pressed against the back of her hand, giving off a "so what if I kissed you?" vibe.

"Ah Yuan..." she whispered.

Chen Yuan kissed him again.

"Pfft"

Yu Wan looked at him, her eyes still a little red, but the corners of her mouth had already begun to curve upwards.

"Ah Yuan is so silly..." she whispered again.

Chen Yuan continued to kiss.

Plop, plop.

Yu Wan finally couldn't help but laugh.

Although the smile was faint, with only the corners of her mouth slightly curved.

"Okay, okay," she gently lifted Chen Yuan up and rubbed her face against him. "Yuan, stop fooling around. I'll cook first..."

Chen Yuan was waving in her hand.

As expected of him.

They calmed her down in no time.

.......

Yu Wan ate dinner quickly, but every now and then she would glance down at Chen Yuan on the table, her eyes crinkling.

Chen Yuan lay on the table, slowly slurping the rice from the spoon.

[Energy replenishment +0.2]

[Experience points +0.02]

...When will this efficiency be upgraded?

He glanced at the panel.

Current experience points: (59.5/299)

After kissing so many times and sucking the blood from earlier, I've finally accumulated almost sixty.

But it's still 299...

.......

After dinner, while Yu Wan was washing the dishes, her communicator vibrated in her pocket.

She wiped her hands, took it out, and glanced at it.

Old Zhou transferred another 2,000 points.

The ring can be redeemed...that's great...

Her eyes curved slightly.

.......

Yu Wan was happy for a long time.

We still have time today, so we can do something else.

If it were in the past, she and A-Yuan would...

......

Then she picked up Zhenyuan and went to the living room to pat the old projector.

There was no reaction.

She patted it a few more times, which caused some dust to fall and made her cough twice.

The projector then hummed for a while before projecting a blurry image onto the white wall opposite.

Yu Wan picked up Chen Yuan and put her in her arms.

Then she pulled the small blanket from the side and wrapped it around her and Chen Yuan.

Only a small head and tiny tentacles were visible.

"It's still useful, A-Yuan," she said softly, resting her chin on Chen Yuan's shoulder as she watched the movie on the wall.

Chen Yuan quietly nestled in her arms.

The blanket is soft and warm.

She smelled nice too.

He didn't know what the movie was about, nor did he care to watch it.

He was simply feeling.

Feel her heartbeat and body temperature.

He could feel the gentle brush against her when she occasionally looked down at him.

Yu Wan glanced down at him, and the corners of her mouth curved up.

The little tentacles stopped shaking and seemed to be looking at something intently.

"Ah Yuan is such a good girl..."

She spoke softly, then continued watching the movie...

.......

Chen Yuan thought that she wasn't actually asking him to watch a movie.

She just wanted to hold him like this, just like before.

She used to do the same, nestled in his arms, wrapped in the same blanket, watching those old DVD movies.

She would fall asleep while watching him, and then he would carry her back to bed, cover her with the blanket, and kiss her forehead.

Now it's her turn to hug him...

.......

The sound of the movie continues.

Intermittent dialogue, rustling background noise, and occasional background music.

But the person in my arms gradually calmed down.

Yu Wan fell asleep.

Chen Yuan raised her small tentacles.

She leaned her head against the sofa with her eyes closed.

He must be tired.

After all, I've been busy all day: cleaning the basement, looking through old books, cooking, and now watching a movie...

.......

As soon as Chen Yuan had a thought, his body began to swell.

Then he carefully controlled himself, trying not to make a sound or touch her.

The tip of the tentacle extends and gently presses on the projector's power switch.

Click.

The projector went out.

The image disappeared, and the sound stopped.

The room was very quiet.

He couldn't carry her back to the bedroom; he wasn't strong enough.

With a load capacity of five kilograms, it's simply not enough to lift a person.

I'll have to sleep on the sofa for the night.

Using the tips of its tentacles, it hooked the slipping blanket and pulled it up little by little.

Cover her shoulders.

All right.

Chen Yuan looked at his masterpiece with satisfaction, then shrunk it back to its original size.

She pulled back into her chest, her heartbeat right beside her ear.

........

the next day.

As dawn approached, Yu Wan groggily opened her eyes and woke up.

She paused for a few seconds before realizing that she had fallen asleep on the sofa last night.

The projector was turned off at some point, and the blanket was properly covering me.

And in my arms...

Chen Yuan is still alive.

The small purple tentacles were curled up on her chest, and she was fast asleep.

Looking at his sleeping face, Yu Wan's lips unconsciously curved into a slight smile.

I dreamt of A-Yuan again last night...

I dreamt that he was still human, still so gentle, and still so... bad.

I bullied her terribly in my dream.

How could you make the floor all wet...?

She glanced at the floor again, almost unconsciously.

It's dry, so it's alright.

She took a deep breath to calm her racing heart, then carefully lifted Chen Yuan out of her arms.

Gently, put it back on the sofa.

He was still asleep, motionless.

"Ah-Yuan, sleep a little longer," she whispered. "I'll cook dinner first..."

She needs to leave early today, because she's afraid the ring will be gone.

It's just an old silver ring; no one's going to buy it...
