Otherworldly Skeleton Evolution

Chapter 338 - Choice



“Mmm… Skeleton Big Brother actually called me silly, how annoying.”

A Silly Cutie felt slightly dissatisfied in her heart.

She had called him such an embarrassing name, yet Skeleton Big Brother still thought of her as silly…

But soon, she didn’t have the mood to think about these trivial matters anymore.

As a loud baby’s cry rang out, A Silly Cutie’s attention was immediately captured.

“Wow… is this Skeleton Big Brother when he was little?”

Looking at the scene reflected in the water droplets, showing a hospital.

A loudly crying baby appeared, with slightly wrinkled skin on its face.

A Silly Cutie’s bright big eyes instantly widened, not wanting to miss any detail.

For her, everything about Skeleton Big Brother’s life was what she cared about the most.

Jiang Cheng also heard a baby’s cry.

But what he saw in the water droplets was the scene of A Silly Cutie’s birth.

Moreover, Jiang Cheng’s thoughts were completely different from A Silly Cutie’s.

Seeing A Silly Cutie being carried into the nursery, everything so clear and visible, Jiang Cheng couldn’t help but feel moved.

No matter how magical the Pool of Rebirth was… it was still something in the game.

How could it reflect scenes from reality?

Had The Great Wasteland already connected to reality?

Or were these scenes just a trick played by the Matchmaker out of spite, trying to confuse him?

Jiang Cheng looked around, but couldn’t find anything unusual. He had no choice but to continue watching.

However, what surprised him was the hospital where A Silly Cutie was born…

“This is Mingde Hospital?”

Jiang Cheng raised his brow bone slightly.

“Little Cutie was actually born in the same hospital as me?”

“Is this really just a coincidence?”

Jiang Cheng’s heart stirred slightly.

Meanwhile, A Silly Cutie was also shocked by the scenes in the water droplets.

“Skeleton Big Brother… you… were born in Mingde Hospital?”

Hearing her soft voice, Jiang Cheng immediately thought, so it’s true.

Jiang Cheng nodded.

In an instant, A Silly Cutie felt as if she was surrounded by happiness, her whole being felt light as a feather.

“Wow, Skeleton Big Brother was not only a person before, but we were even born in the same hospital?”

A Silly Cutie was dazed by this huge surprise, feeling dizzy and a bit disoriented.

“What kind of talk is that?” Jiang Cheng’s mouth twitched. “What do you mean I was ‘not only a person’…”

I’m speechless.

Jiang Cheng almost wanted to flick her forehead, but A Silly Cutie was hugging him so tightly that he couldn’t bring himself to do it.

“Mmm… I’m just happy, so I misspoke, hehe.”

A Silly Cutie couldn’t hide her excitement, her face filled with happiness.

“It seems Skeleton Big Brother and I were destined to be together, teehee.”

“Silly girl.” Jiang Cheng looked at her amusedly.

“Hmph, calling me silly again, ╯^╰” A Silly Cutie pouted, slightly displeased.

But as the scenes continued to change, the smile on her face gradually diminished, replaced by seriousness.

“Oh no… Skeleton Big Brother, how did you fall into that hole? It’s so deep, poor you.”

“Haha, Skeleton Big Brother, so you used to wet the bed when you were little? That’s so cute.”

Jiang Cheng: “…”

Actually, his childhood memories were a bit fuzzy, but what A Silly Cutie described were indeed things he had experienced as a child.

He didn’t expect the Pool of Rebirth to reflect true experiences.

Unfortunately, on his side, he could only see scenes from A Silly Cutie’s childhood.

Having been reborn for so many days, he actually missed his mom and sister very much.

Now with this opportunity, he seemed to be able to see his long-deceased father as well.

But… that was just wishful thinking.

Now, he needed to focus on A Silly Cutie.

“Wow… Skeleton Big Brother, you… you also went to Mingde Elementary School? You were in third grade! I… I… I was only in first grade then… Oh… If only I was a bit older, we could have gone to school together… What a pity.”

“You also went to Mingde Elementary?” Jiang Cheng was surprised when he heard her exclamation.

He had been a bit distracted earlier and hadn’t seen A Silly Cutie’s scene.

“This is quite a coincidence.” The flames in Jiang Cheng’s eye sockets became a bit hollow.

He was about to habitually pat her head.

But the next moment, A Silly Cutie in his arms suddenly trembled, her embracing arms seeming to loosen a bit.

Although the movement was subtle, Jiang Cheng could feel it as their bodies were pressed together.

He wasn’t sure what A Silly Cutie was seeing now.

But Jiang Cheng guessed that probably, A Silly Cutie had seen his identity.

“Ji… Ji… Jiang… Cheng…”

A Silly Cutie’s face suddenly became a bit dazed, her rosy lips trembling slightly.

At that moment, she suddenly looked up, her eyes meeting Jiang Cheng’s soul fire.

“It’s really… you.”

Jiang Cheng didn’t speak, just remained silent.

Moreover, he didn’t know what to say right now.

The truth was clearly laid out before them, whether to accept it or not was up to A Silly Cutie’s decision in this moment.

And judging by her tone, it seemed she had guessed his identity earlier?

The atmosphere was a bit heavy. Although A Silly Cutie hadn’t let go of her embrace, she didn’t speak any more words.

She just buried her head in Jiang Cheng’s shoulder again, her amber-like big eyes blinking only occasionally.

And Jiang Cheng could only keep his gaze on the water droplets reflecting A Silly Cutie’s life.

Then, he sighed in his heart, “So Little Cutie’s real name is Zhang Mengmeng.”

“Her experiences seem very similar to mine.”

“She has an older brother, I have an older sister.”

“I lost my father at ten, Little Cutie lost her mother at ten… and both were due to car accidents…”

“Even our personalities… are quite similar.”

Seeing A Silly Cutie would rather run away from home and starve than beg for help, Jiang Cheng sighed again.

Although A Silly Cutie’s father remarried later, her stepmother was rather hypocritical. Her situation was actually quite similar to his. Maybe for Little Cutie, she also considered herself from a single-parent family.

“This…”

Born in the same hospital, went to the same elementary school, both lost a parent at ten…

Her brother died because of him, and after his death, he was summoned by Little Cutie in the game…

Although there were still many differences between them, even Jiang Cheng, who didn’t believe in supernatural things, felt it was a bit incredible.

But now, after seeing the truth, what choice would Little Cutie make?

Jiang Cheng suddenly felt a bit uneasy.

From dominating Mythic to now ruling The Great Wasteland, this was the first time in so long that he had felt such emotions.

“Wuu…”

Suddenly, A Silly Cutie lying in Jiang Cheng’s arms started crying.

“You big meanie, why didn’t you tell me earlier!”
