I insist

Chapter 173: System Upgrade

She had originally planned to ask Huailin about it when he returned, but she wasn't in the mood for that right now.

Song Miqiu lowered her eyes, fiddling idly with the teacup on the table, while resting her head on the wooden table with her other hand, looking utterly frustrated.

Yu Huailin saw this scene as soon as he entered. Puzzled, he gently put down what he was holding and strode to the wooden table. The unpleasantness he had with Song Miqiu yesterday vanished at this moment.

"What's wrong?" Yu Huailin placed the pastries he had bought on the way in front of the wooden table, pushed them in front of Song Miqiu, and said in a low voice, "Have some. I saw them on the way and thought you would like them, so I bought them for you."

Song Miqiu responded weakly. She watched as Yu Huailin's slender fingers removed the paper wrapping thread from the pastries, and she slowly raised her eyes to look at him.

As he picked up a pastry and handed it to her, Song Miqiu pursed her lips, took it, and took a small bite. The soft crumbs melted on her tongue.

It's my favorite flavor.

Song Miqiu's mood finally improved. She finished the pastries one bite at a time. A cup was handed to her in front of her, and Song Miqiu glanced at Yu Huailin. He said, "Drink this to cleanse your palate."

"Why did you remember to bring me something today?" Song Miqiu chuckled and reached out to take it.

The man suddenly withdrew his hand and gently placed the cup against Song Miqiu's face. The cool touch soothed her already troubled mood.

"Thinking that someone must be exhausted from dealing with things these past few days, and since I happened to see this on the way, I bought it for them." Yu Huailin glanced at Song Miqiu's face and teased, "And didn't I also discover that someone was in a bad mood? My pastries worked, didn't they?"

Song Miqiu smiled happily. When she picked up the second piece of pastry, she paused for a moment before telling Yu Huailin everything she had in mind.

She couldn't help but sigh, "I thought the Crown Prince had taken a liking to this concubine, and I had specifically instructed him to take good care of her health, but I never expected that she would still miscarry."

Upon hearing about the sickly beauty's experiences from elsewhere, Song Miqiu couldn't help but feel sorry for the woman.

Even though the beautiful woman was ill, if the crown prince wanted her to get pregnant, she had to get pregnant.

When she was giving the sick beauty medicine, she couldn't help but lament that the Crown Prince disregarded the safety of others. The sick beauty suffered from asthma, and she couldn't believe that the Crown Prince hadn't noticed when he took her in.

Not only did they get her pregnant, but the Crown Princess also found an opportunity to harm the sickly beauty to this state in the following two days.

However, she was also displeased with the Crown Princess's jealous behavior. Just for the sake of fighting over a man, she had done things that harmed many living beings. If the Crown Princess did not take a calming medicine at night, she would think that the Crown Princess was really heartless.

"It seems that being favored by the royal family is not a good thing after all."

Upon hearing this, Yu Huailin pursed his lips, wanting to explain to Song Miqiu that not all members of the royal family were bad people, such as himself.

But no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't bring himself to say it.

Yu Huailin's gaze fell on the other person's face, trying to see through the human skin mask on Song Miqiu's face to see what looked behind the mask. Recalling the appearance he had seen before, he subconsciously licked his lower lip.

Yu Huailin didn't feel much sympathy for the concubines Song Miqiu mentioned; he was born into the royal family and had seen too much of this kind of thing.

I had already taken these things lightly earlier.

“You have to get used to this situation. After all, I think it’s quite common in the palace.” Yu Huailin thought for a moment and decided that no matter whether Song Miqiu caused this or not, she should get used to it first.

After all, such things happen everywhere in the palace, and Song Miqiu can't possibly pity the other party in every situation; the other party might not need her pity at all.

He told the other party everything about the palace, so that the other party could have a deep understanding of the palace as a complex and complex entity.

"From now on, just stay quietly in the Imperial Hospital. Don't think too much about or concern yourself with anything else, okay?"

Song Miqiu nodded, agreeing with what Yu Huailin said, since being too emotional wasn't a good thing.

She suddenly remembered what Tian Yumei had said to her, and then thought about all the things Yu Huailin had done, which made her feel even more that he liked her.

Song Miqiu paused to consider her words, then asked, "If you liked a girl, would you treat me, or someone you liked, the same way?"

“Of course I…” Yu Huailin paused abruptly.

He immediately realized what Song Miqiu wanted to ask him, and changed the subject, "How would I know? I've never had a woman I admired before, so how would I know what I would do if I liked her?"

Song Miqiu wanted to say something more, but when she saw Yu Huailin's evasive eyes, before she could react, she saw the person in front of her suddenly stand up.

She looked up at the other person, tilting her head in confusion.

Yu Huailin's ears turned slightly red, but fortunately, due to his height and the fact that his sideburns covered his ears, Song Miqiu did not notice.

"I still have some things to do, and I also promised Qiu Tianlei I'd help him with some things, so I'll head over now." Yu Huailin scratched the back of his head, speaking haltingly, and quickly left.

Song Miqiu watched his departing figure and sighed helplessly.

Every time something happens to Yu Huailin at a crucial moment, she begins to suspect that Yu Huailin is intentionally avoiding her, otherwise how could so many things happen?

She frowned, puzzled. Yu Huailin didn't have so many problems before she asked about them.

Thinking of the reward the Crown Prince had given her, Song Miqiu took out the piece of spirit jade from her waist belt. She lowered her head, rubbed the piece of spirit jade with her thumb, and couldn't help but kiss it.

The jade looked excellent. "As expected of the Crown Prince, his rewards are so generous!"

She stuffed the jade into her bag and leaned back against the wooden table with a smile.

Song Miqiu put the spirit jade into the system. She watched as the spirit jade merged into the system. Song Miqiu subconsciously focused her attention on the system points, but she didn't wait for the points to increase.

"Hey, is this system malfunctioning..." Song Miqiu muttered under his breath.

She frowned as she fiddled with the system in front of her, flipping through the panel endlessly before finally finding the Spirit Jade.

Song Miqiu clicked on the spirit jade, and saw that the spirit jade suddenly moved to one side, and the system directly displayed an upgrade.

"I go!"

Song Miqiu was surprised to find that the system had leveled up directly. She rubbed her hands together and watched as the system completed the panel upgrade. She checked it briefly and found that the panel was no different from before.

She clicked on the item exchange section and was surprised to find that she could use points to exchange for more medicine, and even better medicine than before.

This demonstrates that she can use points and the system to expand her network, save people with difficult and complicated illnesses, and benefit the people.
