The stormy night finally passed amidst a “warm” fairytale conversation. The two children had fallen asleep, but Jian Chengxi couldn’t sleep. He tiptoed downstairs to change the water basin, and to avoid waking the children, he simply threw on a coat and stayed downstairs. It wasn’t until dawn, when the thunderstorm finally ended, that a message came through on the terminal on his wrist: 【Attention, citizens: Recently, fluctuations and disturbances have been detected in the wormholes…-

In the evening, after chatting with the child, Jian Chengxi returned to the bedroom. He didn’t sleep very soundly that night. Thunder suddenly rumbled outside, and a bolt of lightning split the sky with a deafening roar. It felt like dark clouds were pressing down from above, and the wild wind outside swept up sand and dust. Even their treehouse seemed to be swaying along with it. Jian Chengxi woke up from his sleep with a start. He looked out the window, a bit flustered, and said, “What’s…

Jian Chengxi coaxed the child to sleep. The bed in the kid’s room was small and cramped, and the house itself was unusually dilapidated. He couldn’t even stretch out his legs while lying down. After seeing that the child seemed to be asleep, he slowly began to ease himself out of bed. In the process of getting up, he accidentally brushed against the wound on his arm. “Hiss…” The sharp pain made him grimace, but in order not to wake the child, Jian Chengxi gritted his teeth and held it…

Jian Chengxi listened to his two kids talking, then turned his head to glance at the rabbit not far away. Strangely enough… Even though he was just facing two children, he couldn’t shake the chill down his spine. It was like he was the one being hunted, like he was the rabbit. Li Suisui, sitting on a nearby rock, asked, “Daddy, can you eat rabbit?” Jian Chengxi: “Uh…” He had actually raised rabbits before, but never eaten one. Still, he had heard of dishes like spicy rabbit…

Wang Zhe stormed off, cursing under his breath. Jian Chengxi was drenched in cold sweat. He rubbed the arm Wang Zhe had just grabbed, feeling a wave of disgust. The system said: 【Host, was there really a need to get so worked up? Wang Zhe was the original host’s lover. He might notice something’s off. What if he turns on you?】 Jian Chengxi snapped, “So I’m supposed to put on an act with him, sell my body and suck up to him. Just looking at that pretty boy makes me sick. Isn’t he…

Jian Chengxi came out carrying a suitcase full of clothes and asked the system to navigate him to a place where he could pawn them. The system wasn’t very useful most of the time, but it made a decent living map. It quickly directed Jian Chengxi to a mushroom-shaped little house, the only pawn shop in the dungeon. There were a lot of people outside the shop. After inspecting his suitcase, the manager glanced at the clothes inside and showed a look of distaste. He said, “Mr. Jian, we can’t…

Jian Chengxi was ecstatic as he stared at the message confirming his welfare application had been approved, when suddenly a chill swept over him from behind. “Achoo!” He covered his nose and rubbed it, a little puzzled. Jian Chengxi took a deep breath, turned his head, and explained to the concerned child, “It’s nothing, just a bit of wind. Maybe the weather’s getting colder. I’ll wear more clothes next time and it’ll be fine.” After he spoke, he noticed the clothes the two…

Jian Chengxi never imagined he would end up in another world and not only that, but he had suddenly become a dad! To top it all off, he actually gave birth to these two kids himself! It was too much for him to handle. Jian Chengxi immediately blurted out, “How can a man give birth?!” The system replied: 【The body you’ve transmigrated into isn’t technically a regular human male. He’s part of the Elf race.】 Jian Chengxi was speechless. Right, he had forgotten—this wasn’t…

【He took the money to buy a token of love for his lover.】 Jian Chengxi’s jaw nearly dropped. He couldn’t believe it. “W-what? A lover!” 【The original husband had left to join the army three years ago, leaving behind a substantial amount of money. It was enough for the original body to live comfortably for decades. But he squandered it recklessly, and just yesterday, in order to elope with his lover, he spent the last of it on a jade pendant, ready to run away.】 Jian Chengxi cursed…

Jian Chengxi woke up with a splitting headache. When he opened his eyes, he saw a dilapidated ceiling, covered with dead branches and cobwebs. The air was thick with dust and the smell of rotting wood hit him in the face. For a moment, he thought he had arrived in hell. 【Host, you’re finally awake.】 Jian Chengxi’s eyes widened abruptly. The voice in his mind made him sit up with a jolt, nearly falling out of bed. “Ow…” A sharp pain shot through his brain, and the piercing sound of…
