My Wife is My Life!

Lu Lixing took a deep breath and said, “Come with me.”

The two went to a more private place in the study.

As soon as the door closed, Ji Qingqing began to feel uneasy. She had a feeling that Lu Lixing wasn’t his usual self today.

“What do you want to tell me?”

Lu Lixing looked at her solemnly and said, “I talked to Grandpa just now and I think there are some things I can’t hide from you any longer. Four months ago, I had a car accident and was bedridden for a month. When my life was in danger, it was my grandfather who found you and asked you to marry me in hopes of bringing me good fortune. It was from that moment on that my condition began to improve.”

Ji Qingqing was a little nervous. “I… what I’m going to say was also something that happened three or four months ago. At that time, I was in a lawsuit with Shen Weiwei and had to pay a lot of money but I couldn’t afford it…”

“However, at that time it happened that you were dying, and then…”

Suddenly, she couldn’t talk anymore. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that she would be treated as a lunatic. She got cold feet and said, “You go ahead and say your piece first.”

Lu Lixing nodded and took a deep breath. “Okay, everything that I’m going to say next may overturn your perception of some things for a long time… but please believe me. Everything I’m about to say is all true.”

Ji Qingqing couldn’t help but become serious as she looked at Lu Lixing’s solemn expression and listened carefully to his next words.

“At that time, when you appeared at my bedside, a system called Xiao A appeared in my mind. It said that as long as I had any physical contact with you, I would be able to survive. I originally thought I had a mental illness, but later, the tasks released by the system told me that it was not.”

*T/N: ‘Xiao’ in Chinese means small. In this case, it means “Little A.” It’s commonly used as an endearment for close people, usually to address those younger than them.

“Xiao A? And then?”

“It would give me tasks related to you to keep me alive. Like for example, calling you my wife and having you call me your husband, all of these can increase my life value by an hour.”

Ji Qingliang was stunned for a moment.

Didn’t Xiao A just tell me when I first came to this world that Lu Lixing was dying and if I married Lu Lixing, I would get his inheritance?

She thought that after successfully marrying Lu Lixing, Xiao A’s task would be completed, so it disappeared after appearing just that once.

So it didn’t disappear, but rather it transferred to Lu Lixing.

She suddenly understood.

I understand it all. So that’s how it was.

Lu Lixing in the novel obviously died after a car accident, so why did he live as soon as she came?

It turned out that she saved him and changed the trajectory of the novel.

So were Lu Lixing’s actions before all forced by the system?

“Haha…” She laughed, but the sound quickly died in her throat as she realized it was inappropriate. She sighed and said, “I’ve already said it, you always let me call you ‘husband’ for no reason. I thought it was just a small quirk of yours. It turned out that it was because of this.”

“If you had said this earlier, I would definitely have called you that many times a day and I wouldn’t be unwilling.”

Thinking about the three months she spent with Lu Lixing, Ji Qingqing’s smile gradually disappeared. She lowered her head and in a place where he couldn’t see, she forced a smile as she whispered, “Then can I ask you a few questions?”

“Sure.”

“When you accompanied me to the film set before, was it a system task?”

Lu Lixing nodded. “Yes.”

Ji Qingqing suddenly realized something as she lowered her head and smiled very briefly.

She asked, “Was your appearance in the program also a task given to you?”

“No.”

Ji Qingqing raised his head and looked at him abruptly. “It wasn’t?”

“I don’t need life points to sleep in the same bed with you at night and my life points weren’t enough at that time.”

The corners of her mouth straightened little by little.

Losing her smile, she then pursed her mouth and wryly chuckled. Ji Qingqing raised her head and thought it over for a moment as her gaze fell on the ring between her fingers.

Carefully, holding on to her last hope, she asked, “The proposal on the show… was it also a system task?”

“Yes.”

Ji Qingqing stared at him in a daze as if she had lost her mind for a moment, then returned to her senses and smiled vaguely at Lu Lixing. Her expression was calm and her tone was normal, showing no signs of discomfort.

“So that’s how it is! Why didn’t you tell me earlier? If you had been honest with me earlier, I would have fully cooperated with you. I’m not the kind of vicious woman who would stand by and do nothing as someone’s life is on the line.

“You especially accompanied me to the film set and appeared on the program with me which delayed so much of your time… and then there’s this ring,” Ji Qingqing frantically took off the sapphire ring. Her hands trembled and her vision was a little blurry, but she took a deep breath and held back her emotions.

“Such an expensive ring too… it’s unnecessary, really unnecessary! If you had just made a ring out of a can, I would have agreed to it too…”

Ji Qingqing suddenly stopped and smiled awkwardly at him.

Embarrassing, too embarrassing.

It feels like I’m acting in a play and everyone else is just watching as my life turns into an utter joke.

Also, how could a person like Lu Lixing fall in love with me at first sight?

What is love at first sight? It was just my silly self-indulgence.
