Transmigration: Experiencing Life's End - Dying Peacefully in One's Sleep

Chapter 231 The Detective of the Republic of China 12 (The End)

Yan Jin said calmly, "Yeah, I guess it'll feel awkward!"

"What's he being so hesitant about? He just didn't agree to it."

"Now that the two of them have talked things out, he still hasn't figured it out, has he?"

"So, what do you plan to do, host?"

"I plan to leave."

Xiao Qi asked in surprise, "Huh? Why?"

"It's not about really leaving, but about provoking him."

"If we provoke him and resort to force, he's no match for the host, is he?"

"If he discovers the original owner's personality, he will still soften his heart."

"How does the host know the original owner is soft-hearted? Wasn't she an assassin?"

“In ancient times, there was an assassination attempt where she spared a child, which shows that although she seems cold, she is actually somewhat soft-hearted,” Yan Jin explained.

These are memories I unearthed from the original owner's memories.

This is also why Yan Jin didn't kill Qiao Chusheng immediately upon their first meeting.

Because truly cold-blooded and ruthless killers don't say that much.

About a week later, the two hadn't seen each other more than twice.

They only exchanged a few words before I went back to my room.

That day, Yan Jin packed her things and went out to knock on Qiao Chusheng's door.

dong dong dong~

Qiao Chusheng opened the door and was somewhat surprised to see her.

"How did you come?"

"I'm planning to leave," Yan Jin said succinctly as always.

"Leave!" Qiao Chusheng exclaimed excitedly.

"Yes, thank you for taking care of me during this time."

After saying that, Yan Jin was about to turn around when Qiao Chusheng quickly grabbed her hand.

He didn't care about etiquette anymore; all he knew was that he was in a great hurry.

"Where are you going? Why are you suddenly leaving?"

Yan Jin looked at him and said calmly, "I'm fine with going anywhere. I'm sorry to have bothered you these past few days!"

"Have I become a burden to you, or have I been putting pressure on you by not knowing how to face you lately?"

Qiao Chusheng blurted out everything in one breath.

Yan Jin didn't say anything, but pulled his hand away: "I've packed my things and I'm leaving."

After saying that, she turned and went back to her room.

Qiao Chusheng stood there, his heart churning, before quickly following them inside.

I saw someone who had already packed their things and was about to leave.

He rushed over, put his things aside, and grabbed her arms, saying, "Please don't go."

Yan Jin looked into his eyes, which held disappointment and pleading.

"why?"

"I need you, can you stay?"

Yan Jin didn't speak, and Qiao Chusheng tentatively hugged her.

He smiled slightly when he realized he hadn't been rejected.

A year later, Qiao Chusheng finally won Yan Jin's heart, and the two held their wedding today.

Lu Yao and Bai Youning got married a while ago. After their honeymoon, they came back to attend Qiao Chusheng's wedding.

"Brother Chusheng, you've finally made it to this day! Congratulations!"

She and Lu Yao had long noticed his feelings for Yan Jin, but they hadn't expected that he would be even slower than them.

She and Lu Yao were the ones who came later but surpassed each other.

Lu Yao also smiled and said, "Congratulations, Lao Qiao, on winning the heart of your beauty."

Qiao Chusheng smiled happily: "Thank you, and I wish you happiness too."

The wedding was held in a church. Yan Jin wore a pure white wedding dress, took Qiao Chusheng's arm, and completed the wedding ceremony in front of everyone.

Qiao Chusheng turned to look at Yan Jin, unable to suppress the smile on his face.

Although Yan Jin didn't show much expression, her gaze towards him was gentler than before.

He smiled and said, "Mrs. Qiao, please guide me in the future."

"Mm." Yan Jin nodded.

At night, in the Qiao family's new house, which was originally Qiao Chusheng and Yan Jin's room, the two rooms were combined and renovated.

It's a large space, fully furnished, and even has a special fitting room for Yan Jin.

There were many clothes and jewelry inside, all of which Qiao Chusheng had prepared for her over the past year.

Although Yan Jin didn't really care about these things, seeing his mental preparation softened her a bit.

On the exquisitely decorated large bed inside, the two figures rose and fell.

Yan Jin looked down at Qiao Chusheng, her eyes dark and inky.

……

Qiao Chusheng noticed something was off about the two of them; why was he the one lying down?

Several times he tried to turn the tables, but found that he was no match for Yan Jin.

As a result, he struggled to turn his life around ever since.

*

After that, Yan Jin mostly stayed at home, occasionally going out with Qiao Chusheng.

Her legends circulated in the martial arts world, and Qiao Chusheng kept those who came looking for trouble away from her.

Those who reach her will not leave alive.

Gradually, people realized he was a tough nut to crack, so fewer and fewer people came.

"Someone came to the house again today?" Qiao Chusheng said with a gloomy face.

"Yes, one or two people."

"Are you alright?" Although Qiao Chusheng had known over the years that she was exceptionally capable, he was still instinctively worried.

"It's alright, don't worry!"

"I can't help but worry, I'm afraid something might happen to you at home," Qiao Chusheng said, holding her hand.

This is what it means to be sad and fearful because of love.

"You should know that ordinary people are no match for me."

"But I'm afraid something unexpected might happen."

"Don't worry," Yan Jin patted her arm.

She treats everyone who comes as a toy, someone she can practice her skills with.

Qiao Chusheng put his arm around her shoulder, and the two leaned against each other quietly.

"Stop thinking about it, go to sleep!"

"I'm worried you're upset. Can I have some time tonight?" Qiao Chusheng asked, seizing the opportunity.

His desire to rise to power couldn't be stopped for even a day.

Yan Jin felt a little helpless. She was more suited to being on top in this world, but it wouldn't hurt to give in occasionally.

"Ah."

Upon hearing this, Qiao Chusheng happily picked her up and carried her back to the room.

……

Qiao Chusheng is exceptionally energetic tonight.

*

Decades have passed, and Yan Jin's temperament has changed a lot. Although she still doesn't talk much, she has become more patient with life.

The main change came after she had a child; she started learning to grow flowers and watering them every day.

Watching her child grow from babbling to adulthood, she also gained a more down-to-earth side.

In the end, Yan Jin and Qiao Chusheng stayed together until the end of their lives.

Back in the system space, Zhong Ning said, "Xiao Qi!"

"Host has arrived. Settle the account immediately."

"Host, don't you want to rest for a bit before going to the next world?"

"No, let's choose a modern world for a vacation!"

"Ok!"

The remaining two cards appeared before Zhong Ning, who looked at them and chose the one with the younger generation.
