Shen Yinqiu entered a book of tactics.
The system told her that she could go home as long as she cured the villain who would massacre cities and countries in the future. When she found the child in the ruined temple, he was curled up on a pile of straw, as thin as a handful of bones, covered in injuries and suffering from a high fever. He asked her: "... Are you here to beat me too?"
At that moment, she decided to raise him.
Cook porridge for him, teach him how to write, and stand in front of him when he is bullied. Everyone said that he was a disaster, a criminal, and a person who deserved death. She insisted on giving him a home.
Gradually, the child who could even hold the candy wrappers in his hands and rub them repeatedly grew into a clear and upright young man. He would get up early every day and lay out her shoes for her, he would silently take care of all the accounts of the cloth shop when she was busy, he would call her "sister" with red ears, and he would stand in front of her calmly before every danger approached.
Shen Yinqiu thought he had raised a cute and clingy puppy.
Until one day, she found a thick stack of papers in his locked drawer. Her name was written all over every page. The earliest one, with faded ink and frayed corners - dates back to the day he tied the red string around his wrist. There is also a notebook deep in the drawer, and the last page reads:
"From the moment she carries me on her back, she must be mine. Whoever touches her will die."
She was shocked to realize that the one she raised was never a dog. It's a wolf.
And he tore off the cute skin and asked her in a low voice: "Sister, do you still want to go home? The world that the system can send you to... I will not let it take you away."
