The morning light seemed devoid of warmth, letting the cold wind blow freely.
Qian Renxue, dressed in a white long gown, carried breakfast as she jogged back to the courtyard.
Inside the room.
Qian Renjue was lying on the bed, resting his face on his hands, deep in thought.
His purple eyes didn't blink.
Pondering.
It had been three days since the day he had a fever.
During this time, Qian Renjue ate well and slept well.
Even his training had been paused.
Day and night, he spent almost all of his time lying in bed.
Even his meals were served by Qian Renxue.
Creak!
Qian Renxue pushed open the door, carrying the food box, and walked into the room.
She glanced at Qian Renjue.
Gently smiling, she put down the food box and softly reminded him, "Jue, come and have breakfast."
Qian Renjue remained lying on the bed, touching his right cheek, looking at Qian Renxue.
He said firmly, "Sister, that night, Mom definitely kissed me."
"Jue, why are you still thinking about that day?"
Qian Renxue's eyes showed a bit of helplessness.
"Mom even cried."
Qian Renjue lowered his gaze, his voice soft as if speaking to himself.
"Sister doesn't know."
Qian Renxue gently shook her head.
She slowly walked to the bedside, sat down, and stroked Qian Renjue's head.
"Alright. Stop thinking about that day, and get up to eat."
"Sister, what Jue said is true."
Qian Renjue's voice was firm, as he lifted his little face to seriously look at Qian Renxue.
"Mhm, Sister believes you."
Qian Renxue slightly nodded.
There was a hint of complexity in her eyes.
She too had noticed the various strange things in the carriage that day.
Qian Renxue even felt that her sudden awakening at that moment was somehow related to Bibi Dong.
Hearing Qian Renxue's words.
Qian Renjue suddenly sat up and hugged her around the neck.
With a smile, he said, "Sister, how about we go see Mom?"
Qian Renxue was momentarily stunned but did not agree.
"Alright, Jue. Stop thinking about it for now. We can talk about it after you awaken your spirit."
"Just come with me to take a quick look, Sister."
Qian Renjue leaned into Qian Renxue's embrace, holding her soft body tightly.
His voice carried a hint of pleading.
"Jue, be good. We'll go later."
Qian Renxue remained unmoved, holding Qian Renjue and gently patting his back.
Qian Renjue pleaded for a long time.
Qian Renxue was still unwavering.
At this time, Bibi Dong was the most unstable.
She didn't dare let Qian Renjue take any risks.
"Ah, alright then."
Qian Renjue let out a soft whine, finally giving in, and lay flat on the bed.
Seeing that Qian Renjue had abandoned the idea, Qian Renxue also breathed a sigh of relief, bending down to give Qian Renjue a light kiss on the cheek.
Their eyes met.
Her voice was very soft.
"Jue, be good and listen to your sister, okay?"
"I understand, Sister."
Qian Renjue murmured, his face slightly flushed as he turned his head away, avoiding her gaze.
"Pfft!"
Seeing Jue's shy expression, Qian Renxue's face bloomed with a smile.
Her fair face also had a light blush.
Before getting up, she urged:
"Jue, get up and eat, we'll start training again today."
With that.
Qian Renxue turned to the table and began setting out the breakfast from the food box.
Meanwhile, Qian Renjue flipped over in bed.
Just about to open system store.
Looking for anything that could help him.
[Host has 3,780 points!]
[Seven 'Mystery Boxes' have been redeemed, remaining points: 280!]
[Do you wish to open a box?]
[Ding! Mystery Box is opening.]
[Congratulations, Host, you've received: 200 points, Eye of Insight ×2, Book "Why Are Flowers So Red", Ice Heart Pendant (Raw Material), Soul-Control Pill, Expired Senzu Bean.]

The puppet retains intelligence and can grow, following orders unconditionally.
[Expired Senzu Bean]: Can heal at least 50% of injuries instantly.
As the system announcement ended.
The items appeared in Qian Renjue's system space.
Seeing only one Soul-Control Pill and Expired Senzu Bean.
Qian Renjue couldn't help but pout.
Calling the system stingy.
But the other items, especially the Eye of Insight and Ice Heart Pendant, made his eyes light up.
A mental training technique!
Such a thing was nonexistent in the Douluo Continent of this time.
And the Ice Heart Pendant could solve his most pressing issue.
This item was perfect for Bibi Dong.
Qian Renjue rolled around on the bed, delighted by the treasures he had acquired.
Meanwhile, Qian Renxue had already finished setting the breakfast.
She looked at Qian Renjue, confused, and asked:
"Jue, what are you doing? Get up, or do you want Sister to feed you?"
"No need! Jue can eat on his own."
A bright smile appeared on Qian Renjue's face, the happiest he had been in the past three days.
He quickly put on his shoes and ran into the bathroom.
Starting to freshen up.
Qian Renxue blinked, puzzled but happy nonetheless.
It had been days since she had seen Qian Renjue so cheerful.
"Sister, let's eat!"
Qian Renjue ran back, sat by the table, and picked up his spoon.
"Mhm, Jue, eat slowly."
Qian Renxue nodded slightly, watching Qian Renjue's lively demeanor.
Everything seemed like it used to be.
Finally, she was able to relax.
"Xiao Xue, Xiao Jue, Dad is here to visit you, and I've brought some delicious pastries."
Just as the two were having breakfast.
Qian Xunji came to the room's door, carrying some things, and knocked on the open door.
Knock knock!
"My two little ones, can Dad come in?"
"Dad!!!"
Qian Renjue turned around, calling out, then ran over.
"Dad, of course you can come in. Jue will help you with the pastries."
He said as he reached to take the pastries from Qian Xunji's hands.
Qian Xunji paused.
Then burst out laughing.
Happy that Qian Renjue was back to his usual self.
He squatted down, hugging Qian Renjue, cheerfully saying:
"Xiao Jue, let Dad carries you."
"Mhm."
Qian Renjue nodded.
Qian Xunji carried him as they walked toward Qian Renxue, exchanging simple greetings.
Qian Renjue tugged at Qian Xunji's clothes, asking with concern:
"Dad, how's Mom doing now?"
