Chapter 25: Our Hearts Are Connected

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

She felt her heart beating faster.

She felt that something was wrong with Cheng Yang.

However, she didn’t know if it was coming from her, or from Cheng Yang.

Xiao Ying guessed randomly.

Cheng Yang felt the same way.

He looked at Xiao Ying and felt that his heart was a little uncomfortable.

It was just that his self-control was stronger than Xiao Ying’s, so his reaction was not as strong as hers.

Cheng Yang frowned as he looked at Xiao Ying. What had happened overnight?

Something was wrong.

It seemed to have started with Xiao Ying’s strange behavior.

After the intense stimulation…

Xiao Ying slowly recovered and looked at Cheng Yang with an inexplicable sense of familiarity.

“What’s the matter with you?”

“What’s going on?”

Both of them spoke at the same time.

This time, Xiao Ying was certain.

The problem should be with her. Just now…

She recalled how her spirit body had absorbed Cheng Yang’s aura into the amulet.

Could it be because of that?

“Amulet, what happened?”

The amulet could sense the change in Xiao Ying’s body.

Hence, even though she did not say it explicitly, the amulet knew what she meant.

“Master, his energy can only be absorbed by the system. There has never been a case of it being absorbed directly by the host. I’m not sure what will happen now.”

“Then what’s the use of me absorbing his aura?”

“Master, I don’t know.”

Since Xiao Ying knew nothing about the amulet, she did not probe further.

She looked at Cheng Yang, who was still waiting for her answer.

Xiao Ying’s lips twitched as she fabricated a story.

“Brother, could it be that we have telepathy and are fated to be together?”

Xiao Ying, who was feeling guilty, thought of what she had been planning and suggested to Cheng Yang, “Why don’t I acknowledge you as my godfather?”

Cheng Yang coughed in shock.

She wondered if there was enough of a generation gap between them.

Why was he finding it harder and harder to follow her train of thought? What was this girl thinking all day?

“You’d better call me brother. I’m not that old.”

Xiao Ying accepted his olive branch. “Okay, brother.”

At least this brother of hers had given her a clear path.

Finally, her progress was no longer just her wishful thinking.

Cheng Yang realized what had just happened and was stunned.

Seeing Xiao Ying’s grin, he did not feel annoyed. Instead, he felt that this was quite good.

But then he felt that something was wrong.

He looked at Xiao Ying suspiciously. Could it be that she had drugged him or cast some kind of demonic spell on him?

He didn’t know that Cheng Yang was already imagining things.

In the excitement that Cheng Yang had just acknowledged her, Xiao Ying ate an extra bowl of porridge.

She went back to her room and took out her computer to check the stock market trends for the day.

She realized that the stocks she had bought yesterday had already risen.

Because she had bought them at a low price, they had easily doubled.

After finishing the mid-level stock trading course yesterday, Xiao Ying felt that her outlook on the stock market was already completely different from before.

The idea of gathering capitol had changed.

The entire stock market slowly became a chess game in her eyes.

Everyone was a chess piece on the board, while she was the one controlling the chess pieces.

As these stocks were doing well, Xiao Ying sold them all.

The people who had sold their shares to Xiao Ying at low prices were filled with regret.

Yesterday, they had mocked her for being a fool. In the end, the real fools were them.

They couldn’t help but pay attention to her movements. This mysterious person must be an expert.

Just as they were thinking this, they saw that the mysterious person had sold all the stocks that they had acquired yesterday.

Their previous thoughts were completely overturned.

This mysterious person was a rather lucky fool.

Through trading, her funds had increased by five to six times.

However, given the current situation, it wouldn’t be a problem for her to multiply it by a few times in a few days.
