Cannon fodder and female supporting role, a match made in heaven

The afterglow of the setting sun filled the sky, and the evening breeze brought the fragmented light over the two of them.

Shen Zhaozhao had kept his head down for too long, so he put down his pen and pinched the back of his neck.

Yu Guangzhong caught a glimpse of another figure still sitting at the desk, and admiration arose in her heart.

Compared to Shen Zhaozhao who made eight hundred small movements in a quarter of an hour, Chu Yu had been reading the book for three whole hours without distraction.

A fallen leaf was blown in by the wind outside the window. Shen Zhaozhao picked it up, squinted his eyes against the light to look at its veins.

A childish yet calm voice sounded: "What are you looking at?"

Shen Zhaozhao looked over and found that he finally stopped reading the book and was staring at the fallen leaves in her hand.

She said, “I’m looking at the world.”

"The world?" A hint of confusion flashed across Chu Yu's face.

Shen Zhaozhao lay on the table, speaking lazily: "One flower, one world; one tree, one bodhi. Do you think the world is unique?"

Chu Yu frowned, and seemed to be thinking seriously about it.

She couldn't even comprehend something herself, so she didn't expect a five-year-old child to understand it.

Shen Zhaozhao walked over and stretched out his hands: "Let's play a game. Guess which hand the leaf is in?"

He looked disdainful, even a little contemptuous: "Childish, no play."

"OK then."

Shen Zhaozhao withdrew his hand.

Seeing that she was about to leave, Chu Yu said anxiously, "Left hand."

Shen Zhaozhao: ...with a smile on her face.

"Play?"

Chu Yu turned his face away: "Play."

Shen Zhaozhao put his hands behind his back, passed the leaves back and forth between his hands, and then took them in front of him again, holding his head high and chest out, with a look of confidence.

"Which hand?"

"Right hand."

He guessed correctly twice, but Shen Zhaozhao didn't believe it and asked him to guess again.

After he guessed correctly several times again, Shen Zhaozhao's confident expression cracked.

It was obvious that she won every time we played last time. How embarrassing it was that she could win at big games but not at small games.

Shen Zhaozhao, who was mentally broken, decided to go downstairs to water the flowers in the garden.

Originally there was no garden, but there was a large open space near the attic. Shen Zhaozhao thought it was a waste, so he built a garden and planted some flower and grass seeds. Now the tip of the garden has just sprouted.

Shen Zhaozhao had just finished watering the sunflowers with a kettle and was about to water the next field when his fingers suddenly lost strength and the kettle fell to the ground, spilling water and soaking his shoes and socks.

She sighed.

She has been losing control of her body recently and she initially thought it was due to lack of sleep.

Not taking it seriously, Shen Zhaozhao bent down to pick up the kettle. The ground in front of him suddenly became distorted, and he felt as if his body was being sucked away by something.

She no longer cared about anything else and turned around and ran towards the attic. Even though it was only a distance of a few hundred steps, it seemed extremely difficult to walk.

When he reached the second floor, Shen Zhaozhao leaned against the door, gasping for breath.

Chu Yu heard the noise and walked over, but he didn't get too close. He just stared at her with his dark eyes.

Shen Zhaozhao stretched out his hand and immediately curved his eyes: "Let me hug you."

Chu Yu stood still, his thick and long eyelashes folded downwards, hiding the emotions in his eyes, but his hands were slightly clenched.

"You're leaving." It was said in an extremely affirmative tone, without any doubt.

"You are going back to your world, right?"

They are not two souls in one body, but two souls that are temporarily residing in this body.

Shen Zhaozhao was surprised at Chu Yu's intelligence, as he could actually guess her origins.

She nodded and spoke quickly: "Yes, I'm leaving. You must grow up well and remember that you are not unloved or ignored. Twelve years later, we..."

The voice gradually became vague and indistinct, her eyelids slowly drooped, Chu Yu lowered his body, pinched her sleeve and shook it.

"What's your name?"

"Can you please not leave?"

He waited for a long time, but she didn't wake up. Tears welled up in his eyes. He bit his lower lip and leaned closer to her arms.

He didn't straighten up again until the body he was leaning on began to move.

"You..." His dull eyes brightened.

"Your Highness?" The tone was full of uncertainty, and she had a fragmented memory.

Chu Yu saw the confusion, strangeness and humility in her eyes.

Not her, she would never call him His Highness.

Shen Zhaozhao appeared out of nowhere in the Chenfei Palace, and stood just in time to step on the tail of the fire beast.

Flamemon cried out in pain, holding his tail and angrily said, "Why is it always me, Rat, who gets hurt?"

Shen Zhaozhao quickly lifted it into his arms and blew on its tail: "I'm sorry, it won't hurt if you blow on it."

The Flamemon's face was filled with fear, and it jumped down.

"Who are you? Get off Zhao Zhao."

Shen Zhaozhao: “???”

The Fire Beast crossed its arms in front of its chest and said defensively:

"Zhao Zhao is rude, barbaric, fierce and violent. When has he ever been so gentle to me, Shu Shu? You, a thing of unknown origin, don't even think about taking over my body, or my master will not let you go."

Shen Zhaozhao rubbed his cheeks. He had been too kind and amiable in taking care of little Chu Yu during this period and he was still not able to get out of the role.

Shen Zhaozhao clenched his fist and threatened, "Do you want to eat this?"

Hearing the familiar tone, Fire Beast immediately hugged her legs and refused to give in: "You just stepped on Shushu, you have to pay two bags of beef jerky."

Shen Zhaozhao pretended not to hear.

Concubine Chen sighed, "I never thought that Miss Shen would have such an adventure, to be able to travel through time and space and return to the past."

Shen Zhaozhao nodded seriously and said, "I didn't expect that either."

Concubine Chen smiled and said, "Come to think of it, I was once puzzled as to why Your Highness would secretly release me from the Demon Palace before the end of the three-month period. Now I understand. It was probably because of you."

Shen Zhaozhao was puzzled: "Why do you say that?"

The Concubine Chen sighed.

"The Demon Lord has issued an order that all demon servants who stay with His Highness must not stay for more than three months. After that, they will be sent to the trial field and become food for demon beasts."

If taking care of Chu Yu means that he will die, will anyone still treat him sincerely?

Shen Zhaozhao gritted her teeth. What they wanted was to make sure that there was no one close to Chu Yu who could be trusted.

What a shame.

What is the purpose of the Concubine Chen?

Shen Zhaozhao looked at Concubine Chen and asked directly, "What on earth did your Majesty ask me to come here today?"

Concubine Chen looked disappointed: "Miss Shen should know that I also drank the poison. So, I would like to ask Your Highness to completely detoxify me."

Shen Zhaozhao remembered that before she went to take care of Chu Yu, the three-eyed demon general did force her to drink a glass of water.

later……

There were several times when I woke up in the morning with a sweet and fishy taste in my mouth.

So the source of the fishy smell is Chu Yu’s blood!

Shen Zhaozhao was puzzled: "You need Chu Yu to help you detoxify, why did you come to me and tell me?"

Concubine Chen's face was full of hope: "Of course it's because Miss Shen has an extraordinary relationship with His Highness. If Miss Shen can help me talk about it, I think His Highness might agree."

If she were to go find Chu Yu by herself, she might never see him again in her entire life.

Shen Zhaozhao: "Chu Yu is a good person. Since you two were once master and servant, as long as you have no grudge against him, he should be willing to help you detoxify."

Judging from the experience of her possessing Concubine Chen, although we don't know what happened afterwards, Concubine Chen is still alive. I think there should be some master-servant relationship between her and Chu Yu.

He is a nice guy?!

Miss Shen, how did you know that?

Is this what it means when a lover sees beauty? !

The Concubine Chen asked herself three questions and sighed in her heart.

Turning her head, she saw the Fire Beast touching her treasure again and again, as if it couldn't let go of it. She directly stuffed the treasure into Shen Zhaozhao's hands.

He said generously: "This treasure is given to Miss Shen."

Shen Zhaozhao won’t be able to handle this.

She was a little at a loss for a moment as she held the fragments of the Floating and Sinking Realm.

As the saying goes, one should be grateful to someone for what he has received. Of course she wanted the fragment, so she had to take it even if she didn't want to.

The Fire Beast's mouth was about to burst with laughter, and it blinked madly at Shen Zhaozhao.

Shen Zhaozhao immediately put the fragments in his arms and said righteously: "Okay, I will tell Chu Yu, don't worry."
