Chapter 281 The Clingy Sickly CEO's Deep Love Is Unstoppable 39
When Chao Yao woke up, she found Zhuge Fufeng was still sleeping. She got up gently, not wanting to wake him up.
However, this subtle movement still made Zhuge Fufeng notice it, and he opened his eyes in a daze.
"Awake?" Zhuge Fufeng's voice was filled with weariness.
Zhao Yao smiled and nodded, "Yeah, I feel much better after this sleep."
Zhuge Fufeng sat up and stretched, "That's good."
The two returned to the house, and Zhuge Fufeng thought of the lightning-struck wood and decided to check the surveillance first. Chao Yao stayed in the living room, sitting quietly, thinking about the strange experience during this period.
Zhuge Fufeng came back soon, with a hint of doubt on his face, "There's nothing unusual in the surveillance video. It seems that the changes in the lightning-struck wood are indeed a bit strange."
Chao Yao sighed softly, "Forget it, let's not think about it for now. Since we have decided to hand it over to the country, let's hand it over."
At this time, the butler came over, "Sir, Madam, dinner is ready."
At the dinner table, Chao Yao and Zhuge Fufeng sat opposite each other. Although the food was sumptuous, it was obvious that their minds were still on the lightning-struck wood.
"Anyway, this experience is quite unique." Chao Yao said as he took a bite of the food.
Zhuge Fufeng nodded, "Yes, but I don't know if this lightning-struck wood will bring about any unexpected things."
After dinner, Chao Yao returned to his room and wanted to study the lightning-struck wood further.
She placed the lightning-struck wood on the table and examined it carefully.
Just then, she felt a faint energy wave coming from the lightning-struck wood.
She was startled and was about to tell Zhuge Fufeng, but she found that the energy fluctuation had disappeared again.
"Is it my illusion?" Chao Yao murmured to himself.
Zhuge Fufeng walked into the room, saw Chao Yao's puzzled look, and asked, "What's wrong?"
After Chao Yao expressed his feelings just now, Zhuge Fufeng frowned, "This lightning-struck wood is becoming more and more mysterious."
In the next few days, Chao Yao and Zhuge Fufeng kept a close eye on the changes in the lightning-struck wood, but did not find any abnormalities.
Until one day, Chao Yao seemed to hear a faint voice calling her in her dream. She woke up suddenly and found Zhuge Fufeng still sleeping beside her.
She quietly got up and went to the place where the lightning-struck wood was placed. The sound seemed to come from here.
"What on earth is it?" Chao Yao picked up the lightning-struck wood and listened carefully.
At this moment, Zhuge Fufeng also woke up, saw Chao Yao's actions, and walked over.
"Anything else?"
Nodding to Yao, "I think I heard a sound."
Zhuge Fufeng looked solemn, "It seems that this lightning-struck wood still has many secrets that we don't know."
The two decided to hand over the lightning-struck wood to the state the next day to avoid more uncontrollable situations.
The next morning, they set out with the lightning-struck wood. Along the way, Chaoyao had mixed feelings, looking forward to solving the mystery of the lightning-struck wood, but also worried about what bad effects it might bring.
After arriving at the relevant department, the staff took over the lightning-struck wood and began a series of tests and research.
Chao Yao and Zhuge Fufeng were waiting for the result, feeling anxious.
After a long time, an expert came out and said, "We haven't reached a clear conclusion yet, but we will continue to study it. Thank you for your cooperation."
Chao Yao and Zhuge Fufeng looked at each other and left helplessly.
After leaving the relevant departments, Chao Yao and Zhuge Fufeng both felt a little heavy.
That night, Chaoyao fell asleep again. This time, the familiar yet strange voice appeared clearly in her mind.
"Chao Yao, it's me, your system." The voice was a little anxious.
Chao Yao was shocked, "It's you! Why are you in this lightning-struck tree?"
The system sighed, "It's a long story. The world where you turned into a lightning-struck tree was originally a part of my jurisdiction. Your unexpected entry gave me the opportunity to reconnect with you."
Zhao Yao frowned, "Then why didn't you show up before?"
The system said helplessly: "That world has its own special rules, and I cannot easily interfere. Until now, with the help of the power of the lightning-struck wood, I can communicate with you."
Chao Yao was silent for a moment, then asked, "What is the use of the lightning power I collected before?"
The system's voice became serious. "Those lightning powers contain enormous energy. Not only can they strengthen your soul and body, they may also be the key to unlocking other mysterious realms. But how to use them specifically still requires us to explore together."
Chao Yao fell into deep thought, "Then why did you show up this time?"
The system said: "I hope you can help me fix some loopholes in that world. In return, I will give you more abilities and secrets."
Chao Yao paused for a moment and said calmly: "Tell me clearly what ability it is and what secret it is."
The system was silent for a moment, then slowly said: "I can give you a secret method to improve your cultivation, which can help you break through the bottleneck of the late Jindan stage and reach the Yuanying stage. In addition, I will also tell you about a blessed place for cultivation with rich spiritual energy, where you can achieve twice the result with half the effort."
"that's it?"
Chao Yao snorted coldly and said sarcastically, "Breaking through the bottleneck is something I can achieve with my own efforts. Even a blessed place with rich spiritual energy may not guarantee my safety. This is not enough for me to take the risk to fix the loophole."
"Then I will grant you another magic defensive weapon that can withstand a full-strength attack from a Nascent Soul cultivator. Also, I will teach you a powerful lost spell." The system's voice became more and more urgent.
Chao Yao raised an eyebrow: "A magic weapon that can resist the attack of a Yuanying cultivator? But how long can it last if facing multiple powerful enemies? The lost spell sounds good, but how difficult and powerful is it to practice?"
"This magic weapon can automatically absorb spiritual energy to recover, and it doesn't matter if you use it multiple times. Although the spell is difficult to practice, once it is mastered, its power is enough to sweep away cultivators of the same level."
Hearing the system's voice about to jump, Chao Yao narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "It's still not enough. The danger of repairing the loophole is hard to estimate. If you really want me to help, you have to offer more sincere conditions."
The system hesitated for a moment and said, "Then I will give you another magical pill that can bring you back to life. No matter what kind of fatal injury you suffer, you can recover instantly. In addition, I will tell you the hiding places of some precious magic weapons in ancient ruins."
Chao Yao raised the corner of his mouth, revealing a smug smile: "That's more like it, but I have one condition. During my mission, you have to warn me of danger at all times."
The system thought for a moment and then responded: "Okay, I promise you."
Chao Yao nodded with satisfaction: "Then let's make a deal, don't regret it later."
The system said: "Don't worry, as long as you complete the task, all promises will be fulfilled."
"Okay, before I solve your problem, I still need to restore my image in front of the public. I have always presented myself as a fool before, and now I have to find a reason and a way to let everyone know that I have returned to being a normal person. I don't want my four children to go out and still be laughed at for having a fool mother."
Of course you should accept the benefits that the system brings to your door, but you also need to resolve your own problems as soon as possible.
"I know, I know. In every world, you treat children as your life, and you don't know what's good about those little things. I can't understand the maternal love of you humans, but I respect it. I'm leaving. When you're done, call me in your heart and I'll appear again."
After the system finished speaking, it disappeared again. Chao Yao slowly opened his eyes, looked at Zhuge Fufeng who was sleeping beside him, and gently woke him up.
"Honey...my mind is much clearer. It was like there was a layer of fog before, but now I don't have that feeling at all."
Zhuge Fufeng understood what Chaoyao meant, "Yaoyao, I will ask my assistant to find some charity events tomorrow, and I will participate with you then."
The next morning, sunlight poured into the room through the gaps in the curtains.
Chao Yao and Zhuge Fufeng got up early and began to prepare for participating in charity activities.
Zhuge Fufeng sat at the dining table, flipping through the information in his hand, and said to Chao Yao: "Yaoyao, I asked my assistant to contact several children's welfare homes and nursing homes for charity activities. Which one do you think you are more interested in?"
"The orphanage. I think I'll be more attuned to the children."
Doing charity work can accumulate a lot of merit for her. Having traveled through so many worlds, Chao Yao has been doing charity work in every life, so these things are completely familiar to her.
"Okay, let's go to the orphanage. I've asked my assistant to prepare some supplies, and we'll take them over when the time comes."
Chao Yao knew that Zhuge Fufeng would arrange everything.
"That's great. Not only do we get to bring supplies, but we can also play games with the children and tell them stories."
Zhuge Fufeng looked at Chao Yao's enthusiastic expression, his eyes full of tenderness: "Well, I'll listen to you."
Soon, they arrived at the children's welfare home. When the children in the welfare home saw them, their faces were filled with happy smiles.
Chaoyao greeted the children warmly: "Hello, kids!"
A little girl asked timidly, "Auntie, are you here to play with us?"
Chaoyao squatted down and gently touched the little girl's head: "Of course, Auntie will not only play with you today, but also tell you many interesting stories."
The children immediately cheered.
Zhuge Fufeng was communicating with the welfare home staff to learn about the children's situation.
Chaoyao brought the children to the yard and started playing games with them.
The media arranged by the assistant have also prepared records and manuscripts. They originally thought that Chao Yao came here today just for a show, but they didn't expect to discover another side of Chao Yao.
Before this, Chao Yao was well known to the public because she was a fool, and the key point was that this fool married very well.
But now, all the media people see Chao Yao as gentle and wise.
