Chapter 1,291 No Response?
Zhou Dong drove all the way back to his home, and then remembered that there was still one unfinished task, which was to apologize to his wife and obtain her forgiveness.
"Hey, now that I have tidied up the cantaloupe, my wife's anger may have subsided. As long as I give her a small gift, she may be able to forgive me for my mistake."
Thinking of this, Zhou Dong drove the car to the local flower market and bought a large bouquet of fresh roses just picked from the garden. There were still dewdrops on them. A refreshing fragrance spread to his nose, and Zhou Dong also Actually a little intoxicated.
"These flowers are nice, I want a big bouquet!"
Zhou Dong happily gave the money, put the roses on the back seat of the car, and rushed towards his home.
On the one hand, he wanted to complete the system tasks quickly, and on the other hand, he wanted to care about his wife. After all, she looked quite sad just now.
The wife's mood had gradually calmed down at this time, and her mother-in-law was patiently comforting her. The two of them talked for a while, and finally she was not as sad as before.
"Daughter, if you are in a better mood now, mom will not bother you here. You can sit alone for a while. If Teacher Ye needs anything, don't forget to call mom. Then I will leave first. "
The mother-in-law knew that Zhou Dong would definitely be back soon, so in order not to disturb the young couple's world, she hurriedly found an excuse to leave.
Just a few minutes after her mother-in-law left, Wang Mei remembered again. Zhou Dong's wife looked back and took a closer look at the peephole. It turned out that Zhou Dong was back.
However, angry, Zhou Dong's wife still opened the door and saw a large bouquet of bright red roses, which suddenly merged into her line of sight. Zhou Dong's wife was also suddenly surprised, but then her face changed. She blushed for a while and seemed to feel a little embarrassed.
"Zhou Dong, what are you doing?" Although she was still a little angry, after seeing this large bouquet of flowers, all the anger in Zhou Dong's wife disappeared, and she felt a little happy instead.
Silently turning around and walking back, Zhou Dong also had a happy smile on his lips. Looking at the expression on his wife's face, he knew that the woman had lost her temper, so he took the initiative to speak.
"Okay, this is a new rose I bought at the flower market. Look, there are still dewdrops on it. They just picked it from the garden. I brought it back to you quickly. Are you happy?"
Zhou Dong's wife didn't speak, she just sat on the sofa silently, as if she wanted to explain what happened just now.
Zhou Dong naturally knew what his wife meant, so he hurriedly sat down with the roses in his hands, put the bouquet into her arms, and then began to lower his head and admit his mistake.
"Honey, I know what happened just now was my fault. I shouldn't have lied to you. Don't worry, I will never do such a thing again in the future. I am really angry with my cousin and her family. , that’s why I did that kind of thing, but I didn’t expect that it would hurt you.”
"I really didn't mean it this time. Just forgive me. I won't make the same mistake again. If I do again, you'll punish me by kneeling on the washboard and hit me however you want. What do you think?" ?”
Zhou Dong had a sincere expression on his face, and he looked directly at his wife's face. Finally, he saw a smile on the face of the woman opposite him.
"Okay, okay, I was really angry just now because you lied to me, but now that you look so pitiful, if I don't forgive you, you will definitely hate me in your heart, but we can make an agreement. , you swore to yourself that you would never lie to me again, but if you do, I still won’t let you off lightly. "
Zhou Dong hurriedly nodded his head like a rattle. Seeing that his wife had finally forgiven him, he felt extremely happy. He hugged the woman into his arms, and their relationship returned to its original state.
At this moment, another crisp voice sounded in Zhou Dong's mind.
"Ding! System task completed, reward 10 points!"
The score increased a lot, and Zhou Dong felt very happy.
After chatting outside with his wife for a while, Zhou Dong returned to his room, lay down directly on the bed, stretched out comfortably, and then started talking to the system.
"System, my current score has reached a very high level. I want to exchange it with you for new skills. When will you exchange it for me?"
Zhou Dong waited with excitement in his heart for a surprising reply from the system, but several seconds passed, and his mind was still quiet, as if he had suddenly fallen into the boundless wilderness.
Zhou Dong frowned slightly, and felt confused in his heart. He quickly said a few words to the system, but there was no response from the system.
Zhou Dong suddenly became energetic and sat up from the bed, feeling that something was very wrong.
"Why did the system suddenly become unresponsive? Is there something wrong? It's not difficult to redeem a new skill. There's no need for it to ignore me."
With doubts in his heart, Zhou Dong called the system again: "System, please come out quickly and exchange me for new skills. Why don't you talk? You have to tell me if there is any problem. You can't let me worry here like this."
After countless calls, the system still had no response, as if a person suddenly disappeared from the earth, which made Zhou Dong feel very uncomfortable.
For so long, he has been accustomed to talking to the system, and the two of them have become so familiar with each other, just like close friends, but now the system suddenly returned to the results, which Zhou Dong couldn't accept all of a sudden.
However, he had no choice but to give up calling the system.
"Forget it, since the system is unwilling to talk today, maybe there will be a new turn tomorrow. I will ask it again tomorrow." At this point, Zhou Dong had to put this matter aside and prepare to make plans tomorrow.
When lying in bed at night, Zhou Dong tossed and turned because he was thinking about his worries, and he didn't sleep until very late, and then he slowly closed his eyes.
In the morning, when it was just dawn, Zhou Dong suddenly widened his eyes, looked at his wife who was still sleeping beside him, and quietly got up and got out of bed, and went out to do his own things.
"System, system, please come out quickly and exchange new skills for me, or just talk to me. I'm getting anxious when you keep silent."
