Chapter 42
Chapter 42: She Likes This
Wen Yu smiled and didn’t mind the matter. He reached into his pocket and took out a small box, handing it to Fu Chengque.
“Here’s one for you too.”
“Huh, is this for me? Thank you!”
Fu Chengque took it excitedly, pretending to open it, then suddenly remembered something and looked up at Wen Yu, “Can… I open it to see?”
“Go ahead.”
Her small hands fluttered, the box opened, revealing a very quaint wooden sparrow.
Exquisitely carved, lifelike.
This was something Wen Yu had bought at a high price while touring the ancient streets of Nancheng yesterday. This wooden sparrow, smaller than a fist, cost over six hundred yuan.
He didn’t necessarily intend to give expensive gifts, he just thought this one was very suitable for Qingmei next door.
Fu Chengque held the wooden sparrow in her palm and exclaimed, “Wow, Wen Yu, what is this, a little wooden bird?”
“A wooden sparrow, beautifully carved.”
“Yes, it’s wonderful.” After playing with it for a while, she carefully put the wooden sparrow back into the box, then into the small bag. Turning back to Wen Yu earnestly, she said, “Thank you, Wen Yu. I really like this!”
“As long as you like it.”
In that moment, Wen Yu’s thoughts collided chaotically.
The Fu Chengque in front of him seemed like a fusion of the aloof Qingmei from the previous life and the lively Empress from now, one who would accept his gifts but rarely say “thank you” and seldom call his name, while the other one had lines he had never heard before like “I like this”.
Is that so?
Does she like this?
Does she actually say “I like this” when she’s very happy?
“Did you go somewhere these past two days? Why did you suddenly think of buying gifts? What did you get for others?”
Wen Yu’s thoughts were interrupted. He organized his mind and replied, “I went to the mountains, as I told you. Today, I passed by the ancient street and saw an old man selling his wood carvings, so I picked one.” Wen Yu pondered for a moment, “As for the gifts for others… I forgot.”
Fu Chengque was a bit speechless.
Could he forget?
This childhood friend had been great lately in every aspect, but occasionally something seemed off. Perhaps there was a slight problem with his brain.
Anyway, the gifts were great, hehe.
The taxi ride made Fu Chengque feel nauseous. When she got out of the car, her legs were shaking.
“I won’t ride again, never again!”
The taxi driver turned back with a apologetic smile, “Sorry, little girl, they’ve been doing roadworks in Jiangcheng recently, and the bumps are unavoidable.”
Wen Yu closed the door and thanked the driver, “Thank you, sir.”
Turning back, he took Fu Chengque’s bag and slowly led her upstairs.
At the doorstep, both families’ doors were open, and each person went home.
On Wen Yu’s side, after checking that her son was intact, Mrs. Wen stopped worrying. She left some leftover rice and a pot of hot soup, enough for him to eat.
Wen Yu thought, before leaving, her son was precious, but now even pigs seemed more valuable than him…
On Fu Chengque’s side, as soon as she entered the house, the Fu family immediately came to greet her, taking her bag, inquiring about her situation, offering water, handing her a towel to wipe the sweat, changing her slippers, and quickly washing her hands. The whole family was waiting for her to eat.
After dinner, she took a hot shower and lay comfortably in bed, starting to chat aimlessly.

【Fu Chengque】: I put the little wooden sparrow you gave me on the desk!
【Fu Chengque】: Thank you for the gift.
Wen Yu glanced at it. The wooden sparrow was placed in the center of Fu Chengque’s desk, and next to it was the smallest nested chick.
So he also put the nested chick on the table and took out the small items from the chick’s belly, arranging them around, like hatching eggs.
The small items were various colored glass miniature fruits, each about the size of half a little finger.
【Wen Yu】: [Picture]
【Wen Yu】: Your four-layer nested chick is also arranged.
【Wen Yu】: It’s nice. I’ll receive a gift from you every month.
【Fu Chengque】: Looks good, my gift is really nice.
【Fu Chengque】: Those are the glass miniature fruits I carefully selected. Look, the small fruits hatched from the chick’s belly, cute, right?
【Wen Yu】: Cute, too cute.
【Fu Chengque】: [Happy cat]
【Fu Chengque】: Hehe, as long as you like it! This Empress is going to sleep, still have to go to school tomorrow, bring my gifts, reward my subordinates.
【Fu Chengque】: Rewarding is also an art of empresses.
【Wen Yu】: Goodnight.
【Wen Yu】: Shall we go to school together tomorrow?
【Fu Chengque】: Okay.
With her phone down, Fu Chengque was ecstatic.
She felt refreshed after getting on the train.
Speaking of which, what a coincidence, she actually met Wen Yu at Jiangcheng Station, it was touching.
Such good luck!
With her eyes closed, she slept soundly.
The room was pitch-black, and Fu Chengque lay quietly, quietly, quietly… Suddenly, a pair of eyes flashed.
Fu Chengque suddenly bounced off the bed, sitting up straight.
“Wait!”
“Wait, wait!”
“Wen Yu, Wen Yu!”
Fu Chengque shook her head vigorously, “Why is he on the train? And why is he sitting next to me, what’s going on, what’s going on!”
She finally remembered what she had forgotten!
These past two days of work had been exhausting, and her mind was still a bit fuzzy, she hadn’t thought about this at all.
Taking out her phone, she sent five WeChat messages in a row:
【Fu Chengque】: Wen Yu, why were you on the train today!
【Fu Chengque】: And were you sitting next to me, what’s going on???
【Fu Chengque】: Answer me, answer me, answer me!
【Fu Chengque】: So you’ve been there since Nancheng, haven’t you!
【Fu Chengque】: Wuuu, my cousin must have told you, it must be… damn, tricking me together…
After sending the messages and not receiving a reply from Wen Yu, Fu Chengque sent a few messages to Lou Xuanli, but also received no response.
Feeling powerless, she collapsed, nestling in her blanket, feeling disheartened:
Everyone was teasing her, and she was so naive…
She made a mental note to remember this, and when she became stronger one day, she would settle these old scores, none of them would be able to escape.
Thinking of this, Fu Chengque suddenly remembered her expired task. Shouldn’t the task have failed by now? If it failed, shouldn’t there be a prompt? Then, should her attributes have been deducted?
Thinking about it, she summoned the system and accessed her system attributes. The first thing that caught her attention at the bottom of the attribute list was “Special Abilities”—
Special Abilities:
[Cat Language of Cat Language]
[Divine First Experience: Creation (Limited Time)]
?!
Divine First Experience: Creation?
“What is this!” Fu Chengque exclaimed softly as she looked at the panel.
When did this appear?
Was it there before?
No, no, no, it shouldn’t have been. Is it something acquired recently?
When was it? Why does she have no memory of it at all?
Could it be…
Fu Chengque suddenly recalled that ridiculous task she had abandoned, “Sleeping with ‘Wen Yu’ for 1 hour,” and the perfect task reward for this task happened to be a “random special ability.” In other words—
While she wasn’t aware, this task was completed!?
Then, when did she sleep with Wen Yu?
They had been busy with midterm exams for the past half month, and after the exams, they each went their own way. How did they end up sleeping together?
Fu Chengque suddenly got goosebumps.
It felt like there were eyes staring at her from the darkness behind, and a pair of big hands were silently creeping over…
Could last night’s dream be true?
Wen Yu, does he really have wings, is he a big thief, and did he lecherously abduct her to forcibly accompany him to sleep for an hour??
This…
Wen Yu is really…
Out of line!
Reckless!
