The villainess is always pretending to be the Virgin Mary - Chapter 94

On that day, Chi Ying came to the next door to eat as usual.

When Gu Chi opened the door for her, his smile was softer than ever.

But Chi Ying’s head only reached his chin. She didn’t look up, so she didn’t notice.

Chi Ying naturally got into the kitchen and took a look. She found that there were two more dishes than usual, and there were still some pickled vegetables and meat on the chopping board, which seemed to be for the next day.

She looked at Gu Chi, pointed at the ingredients and asked in confusion, “Do you have guests?”

“No, just preparing for tomorrow.”

“What’s tomorrow?” Chi Ying was at a loss.

Gu Chi narrowed his eyes, “You didn’t forget, did you?”

Chi Ying’s heart tightened.

What did she forget?

[Anniversary… Anniversary!] The system reminded her in fear.

“Oh, oh, oh! It’s our second anniversary together!” Chi Ying said hastily.

The temperature in Gu Chi’s eyes warmed up, and his expression softened a little, “You remember…”

Chi Ying shook her head like a rattle, and said guiltily, “I can’t forget, I can’t forget such an important date.”

“Yeah.” Gu Chi moved her hair from her forehead, “Let’s eat.”

“Okay!”

Gu Chi’s eyes drifted subconsciously to the wooden cabinet in the room, a little nervous.

He hoped she would like the gift he prepared.

A few nights ago, after Lu Yunfei finished bathing, he lay on the bed and read a book.

Since he was conferred as a mid-level commander, when he was out of missions, he had to bring the ability holders with lower levels and teach them how to use their abilities.

Knock! Knock!

He put down the book, got up and got out of bed.

He was a little surprised when he opened the door.

“Captain, why are you here?”

Gu Chi coughed lightly, “I want to ask you something.”

He entered the door.

Lu Yunfei was about to pour water to treat him, but he stopped him, “No, just a few words.”

“Oh, tell me,” Lu Yunfei put down the kettle.

“Do you know what is the best gift to give?”

Lu Yunfei’s expression changed, and the corner of his mouth curled into a subtle arc.

“For Chi Ying?”

Gu Chi nodded.

“Hey, you should ask Mu Yu since you are giving a gift to a girl. I’ve never given a girl a gift before, and I’m busy enough with the alliance.”

Gu Chi pursed his lips, “Mu Yu has a good relationship with Chi Ying, and I’m afraid she’ll slip up the fact I’m giving her a gift.”

Lu Yunfei agreed, “It’s true, Mu Yu has a slippery tongue.”

He raised his head and thought for a while, “Generally speaking, a gift should suit one’s liking. You should know what Chi Ying likes, right?”

Gu Chi lowered his head in thought.

“You can give her whatever she likes.”

Gu Chi thought for a moment, then suddenly realized, “I have an idea.”

At present, Chi Ying was lying on the bed discussing emergency countermeasures with the system.

Chi Ying completely lost her sense of proportion, “What should I do? What gift should I give him tomorrow?!”

Gu Chi probably didn’t mind if she gave it or not, but she still remembered once when a small gift she gave a while ago was hidden in the bedside table by him until then.

Chi Ying felt that she was a heinous sinner.

The system gave her an idea: [From the system’s database, on general anniversaries, what men get the most are watches and ties, followed by electronic products such as keyboards. Of course, the current development of human beings is regressing, and electronic products of the list can be canceled.]

Chi Ying frowned, “Where can I get a watch and tie from?”

The system also encountered difficulties: [Indeed.]

[Then why don’t you do something he likes?]

Chi Ying was puzzled, “What do you mean?”

[If you think about what Gu Chi is most interested in, just give it away! Give what he likes…]

Chi Ying turned over, stared at the ceiling for a moment, and suddenly her eyes lit up.

The next day after entering Gu Chi’s room, Chi Ying silently waited for the opportunity to hand over the carefully prepared gift to him.

Gu Chi stood up straight, pretending to be casual and took out a small black box from his coat pocket, “Cough, a gift.”

Chi Ying was slightly startled, and reached out to take it.

She was terrified.

Fortunately, she was also prepared.

When she opened the small lid of the box, her almond eyes widened.

What a beautiful… cross?

She stared at the extremely delicate cross and fell silent for a moment.

Chi Ying felt that her mood was a little weird, like she was happy, but it was more of a weirdness that she couldn’t explain clearly.

At that time, Chi Ying didn’t know that feeling was called ‘When you receive a gift from a rigid man with low EQ’.

She just had some regrets.

It was a pity she was not a Christian. She just brought that thing around every day to bluff around.

“Do you like it?” Gu Chi looked at her expectantly.

“I like it,” Chi Ying nodded.

Although a little inexplicable, she still had the upper hand in a happy mood.

“I have a gift for you too, so close your eyes.”

Gu Chi’s ears turned red, as he closed his eyes.

Chi Ying took out a small green box from her pocket, and was about to ask him to open his eyes when she caught a glimpse of Gu Chi’s drooping eyelashes, and suddenly hesitated.

She leaned closer to him, stood on tiptoe, and kissed his lips.

Gu Chi’s eyelashes trembled, subconsciously wanting to open them.

“Close your eyes!” Chi Ying rubbed her hot cheeks.

After the heat on her face subsided, she whispered, “Okay.”

Gu Chi opened his eyes, and saw Chi Ying with a blushing face.

He coughed lightly and forced himself to look away from the gift box in her hand.

He reached out to take it, and opened it.

Inside was a very beautiful crystal core.

Gu Chi: “…”

He was unable to speak for a long time.

“Thank you, I… quite like it.”

Chi Ying observed his expression, narrowed her eyes and said, “Liar, you don’t like it.”

Gu Chi pursed his lips.

How should he put it? He wouldn’t say that he didn’t like it…

However, that was indeed a bit beyond his cognition.

The system defended Chi Ying: [Hey this is the crystal core you picked out after killing a city of zombies overnight.]

The system recalled the scene where Chi Ying razed a zombie city to the ground in the middle of the night the previous day.

Hmm… The system learned the meaning of “slaying a city for one person” from her.

Besides, wasn’t Gu Chi most interested in zombies?

Chi Ying didn’t speak, but just secretly glanced at the crystal core, and subconsciously moved her eyes a little below the crystal core.

She reached out and hurriedly closed the lid, “If you don’t like it, throw it away.”

“Why…”

“I’ll go back first, the headquarters is looking for me!” Chi Ying turned around and left in a hurry.

Gu Chi looked at her flustered figure, a little confused.

Why was she in such a hurry?

He reopened the gift box and looked at the crystal core a few more times.

Ignoring the fact that it was a zombie’s crystal core, it was actually quite beautiful.

He touched it with his fingertips, trying to pick it up and look at it, but suddenly found a gap in the middle of the crystal core.

That was not a single crystal core, but a complete crystal core that had been divided into two halves.

He raised his eyebrows and twisted his fingers to pick it up to find out, but was stopped by an unexpected resistance.

Gu Chi frowned and added some strength.

The crystal core was finally picked up by him, but there were two silver rings under it, one big and one small in size.

Gu Chi’s heart trembled. His mind went blank for a moment.

He stayed in place for a moment, then came back to his senses, turned around and chased after her.

“Chi Ying…”

He strode over, and within a few steps, he reached the door of the next room, which was locked.

His fingers trembled slightly when he knocked on the door, “Chi Ying!”

“Chi Ying!”

However, it was impossible for the shy ghost to open the door for him that day.
