"I'm sorry, but due to the restrictions of the rules, I have not been able to tell you the truth."

"You are blood relatives, so you don't have to feel guilty. So, just be at ease and accept their kindness."

The system's voice was more serious than ever before, like a hammer, instantly shattering the guilt that Wen Hemian had been carrying in his heart for more than ten years.

She doesn't have to worry about invading the body of an innocent girl, nor does she have to regret that she has received more than ten years of care and love from her parents in vain...that thing was originally hers.

Wen Hemian's eyes were sore and he could not help but take a few steps forward. He hugged Qin Yi and said in a low voice, "Mom."

"Hey." Qin Yi agreed happily. She asked softly, "My dear daughter, have you been wronged in the capital? It's okay. Tell me and I'll support you, okay?"

Wen Hemian just shook his head.

My throat felt like it was choked and I couldn't speak.

Wen Chengyuan stood behind them, looking at the mother and daughter. He felt helpless, but also a sense of peace and warmth.

The person he was thinking about the moment before suddenly appeared in front of him. It was a great surprise. His daughter seemed to be in a bad mood, so he didn't dare to say much.

Qin Yi's emotions were more delicate. After saying a few words, he brought Wen Hemian into the mansion first.

She smiled and teased, "This time, I'm finally not estranged from my parents. I've been preparing a room for you. Mom cleaned it a few days ago. Go in and see if you like it."

The border is a bitter and cold place, and the children of nobles will suffer when they arrive here. The mansion where the couple lives is certainly far inferior to the royal palace in the capital. It looks gray, but fortunately it is clean inside.

Wen Hemian was surprised to find that the layout of the room the couple prepared for her was similar to that of the palace.

"This……"

Wen Chengyuan took over the conversation: "I was afraid you wouldn't be able to get used to it, so I copied it here."

Wen Hemian had been in a state of ups and downs today, and he calmed down and smiled with curved eyebrows: "I like it very much, thank you, Dad and Mom."

"What's the point of thanking a family member? They were just praising you for being so friendly!" Qin Yi raised his eyebrows, implying condemnation.

Wen Hemian raised his hand and slapped his mouth to indicate that he was wrong.

After a brief reminisce, the three of them sat down at the table. Wen Hemian sat alone at the side, holding the cat. The system raised its paw and patted it, signaling to let it go, then jumped onto the table and sat down.

"If you have any questions, you can ask them now, and I will tell you what I can tell you."

Wen Hemian was a little surprised to see the system speaking so openly in front of her parents, but when she saw that the two of them showed no strange expressions, she quickly calmed down.

Wen Chengyuan snorted and laughed: "Hanshuang, you didn't think that we would let him go so easily just because of your words, did you?"

When Wen Hemian came here, she was still a half-grown child, and she was immature in every way. The couple wanted to take her away. Although life at the border was hard, raising a child was not a problem.

Qin Yi glared at him, then explained softly, "You were thin and small when you were born, and you almost died several times. It was this little thing called the system that said that if we made a deal with it, we would be able to grow up healthy and safe, so we boldly decided to give it a try. The only condition is that we agree to let you do missions with it."

"But this way, we will have fewer days to see each other." Wen Chengyuan looked her up and down, nodded with a smile, "It seems that you are living well in the capital."

Wen Hemian only reported good news and not bad news: "Yes, it's not bad. The current emperor is also good."

Although the couple seemed to have some prejudice against the royal family, that was from the time of the previous emperor and had nothing to do with Xie Lang, so it was good to leave a good impression on them.

Wen Chengyuan had no doubts about this and only said: "After all, he was the child you raised."

Wen Hemian coughed guiltily.

"It seems like you don't have anything to ask me." The system shook its tail and interrupted, "Then I'll make it short."

"The mission has been completed. From now on, you will no longer be bound. I will also be leaving soon. I wish you freedom."

Wen Hemian actually still had some doubts in her mind, but when she saw the system secretly winking at her, she didn't ask at this time.

The couple unanimously expressed their gratitude to the system, and the system did as it said and left the cat's body in the blink of an eye. The white cat returned to its nature and burrowed into Wen Hemian's arms.

"That's enough, Hanshuang. Now it's time to talk about your story." Qin Yi's eyes were smiling, his tone was gentle, but his sharpness was extraordinary. "Tell me, why did you come here alone?"

Once the news spreads, it will be impossible to hide it sooner or later. Besides, he needs them to know so that they can respond in advance. Wen Hemian then tells them everything about how he faked his death and escaped.

When they heard her plan to jump off the cliff, the couple both took a deep breath. After a long silence, Wen Chengyuan raised his hand and patted her shoulder: "You are so brave, you are worthy of being our daughter!"

Seeing this, Qin Yi could no longer blame him. She thought of another way: "Identity is not important. In this case, why don't you return to being a daughter and become our adopted daughter?"

There must be something behind the decision that could make Wen Hemian make such a decision. She didn't say much, and the other two didn't ask too many questions. Instead, they actively thought about the follow-up solutions.

Wen Hemian had no objection to this and curled the corners of his lips: "Okay, I'll listen to you."

It’s decided.

Seeing the fatigue in her daughter's eyes, Qin Yi said nothing more. She took her husband out to choose clothes and told her to have a good rest before closing the door and leaving.

The system returned to the cat's body in one second.

It said, "I know you want to ask about modern times. Your soul spent a good life over there, so those over there are also your relatives. Your body here only has one soul and one spirit, so you became stupid in the early stage. As compensation from the system and a reward for completing the task, the administrator decided to give you the missing six years."

Wen Hemian was six years old when he traveled through the book.

She asked: "Can this be repaired? How?"

"Of course it will be added to your lifespan." The system said without hesitation, "In the next six years, the flow of time on your body will be infinitely slowed down. That's probably it."

As for more profound things, the rules of the world do not allow us to talk about them in detail.

This was purely a pleasant surprise.

Wen Hemian said sincerely: "Thank you, system."

"Don't thank me, this is all due to the hard work of you and your parents."

The system curled up its tail a little embarrassedly, with its cat eyes sparkling, as if it was a little reluctant.

"The mission ends here. I really have to leave."

"Thank you very much for helping me complete my mission. I wish you freedom, success, and a smooth journey ahead. Goodbye."

Although I felt that the system was unreliable at many times, I still managed to complete it successfully after some setbacks.

Wen Hemian smiled, the light in his eyes was gentle and beautiful: "Goodbye."
