Chapter 492: Chapter 488: Cannot Be Retracted
"Apologies, the points have been deducted. The action cannot be reversed."
The system replied to Xu Wenwan in a cold, indifferent tone.
Xu Wenwan was going crazy.
She stared at the two pathetic points on her system panel and was on the verge of tears.
These were the points she had painstakingly saved by making facial soap, and now they were all spent on herself. The loss stung, and she was terrified.
"System, what do I do now?"
The system rolled its eyes in its space. ’You’re asking me? Who am I supposed to ask?’
’After traversing thousands of small worlds, the system had developed its own consciousness, which was how it managed to escape the Main God. This was its final mission, and it had thought it would be simple. But who would have thought!’
’I can’t believe I actually got bound to a moron.’
The system began to doubt whether it could actually complete its mission.
"Just be careful."
Xu Wenwan was speechless.
She wanted to cry.
’Why is the whole world against me, including myself!’
Knowing how powerful her ability was, Xu Wenwan was also a little scared. For once, she stayed quietly in her room, not saying a single word.
Outside, Chen Xiaoli, who had been given an important task, found it strange.
’It’s rare for my sister-in-law to be this well-behaved.’
But she didn’t let her guard down.
Early this morning, her mother-in-law had called her to the kitchen and repeatedly instructed her, "Your task today is to watch Xu Wenwan closely. Before Yun Hao comes to pick up the bride, you absolutely cannot let her out of your sight."
Chen Xiumin was terrified her daughter would have a sudden fit, rush out of the house, and start spouting nonsense at some man again.
The incident with Chen JianShe last time had been utterly mortifying for her.
Just thinking about it now made her flush with embarrassment.
Chen Xiaoli didn’t dare go anywhere now, so she just stood by the door watching Xu Wenwan, terrified something might go wrong.
Xu Chongfeng walked in from outside, saw Chen Xiaoli standing in the courtyard, and couldn’t help but walk over. "Go stay inside! It’s snowing and it’s cold. What if you get sick?"
Chen Xiaoli didn’t move.
"It’s fine. It’s just for today. Things will be settled once Younger Sister is married."
’This was a task from her mother-in-law. If she failed to watch Xu Wenwan properly, there would be endless trouble at home later.’
Xu Chongfeng tried to persuade her a little more, but when Chen Xiaoli wouldn’t budge, he gave up and said no more.
Yu Fangfang was far along in her pregnancy, so she stayed in her room to avoid any potential mishaps.
As time passed, friends and relatives all arrived.
Most of them looked somewhat displeased.
The day the Xu Family had chosen was just too unlucky. The weather was clear yesterday, but a heavy snow had started to fall on the day of Xu Wenwan’s wedding.
Recalling the things Xu Wenwan had done since she returned, everyone smiled, said a few words of congratulations, and then fell silent.
Normally, everyone would shower the bride with praise, but when it came to praising Xu Wenwan, they had no idea what to say!
Ever since she returned, she’d gotten quite close to Yun Hao, one of the educated youth. But there were also rumors about her and Feng Ergou, saying the two had even held hands.
If that were true, Xu Wenwan was simply promiscuous and shameless. And on top of that, everyone knew how, ever since she got back, she demanded the best food and the finest things, even making her sister-in-law take a special trip to the County Town to buy fabric for her.
Furthermore, Yu Fangfang had almost miscarried because Xu Wenwan had angered her so badly.
These stories had all circulated in private, so no one had a good impression of Xu Wenwan.
Chen Xiumin greeted everyone and invited them into the house to rest.
Since it was the wedding day, she’d had Xu Chongshan heat the house until it was exceptionally warm. As soon as you stepped inside, you could feel a wave of comforting heat.
"Xiumin, it’s a good thing your daughter is finally getting married. The way she’s been making eyes at that educated youth all day, the whole village is gossiping!"
