NOVEL WEB 42: Spatial Storage Upgrade
After regaining consciousness, Gu Yu didn’t immediately sit up from the bed.
Instead, he turned his head to look around, and finding no one in the room, he finally raised his hand to touch the red mole at the corner of his eye, directly entering his spatial storage.
Before fainting, Gu Yu had heard the prompt in his mind and knew that this blackout was related to the spatial storage upgrade.
As for why it upgraded… it was because Gu Mengyao’s favorability toward him had increased by 10 points, causing the spatial storage to upgrade, which consequently made Gu Yu faint.
Thinking about this, Gu Yu had some guesses in his heart.
When this spatial storage first appeared, Gu Yu remembered it was an upgradable space…
Now looking at the spatial storage that had doubled in size, Gu Yu stroked his chin, narrowed his eyes slightly, and suddenly smiled.
He finally knew what the upgrade conditions were.
Since he had to protect Gu Mengyao for a lifetime, earning more favorability points in the future would just be a matter of course.
Gu Yu’s feelings toward Gu Mengyao weren’t complicated. Growing up disliking women due to family reasons, he didn’t detest them—he just felt that having a partner would become very troublesome.
After transmigrating to ancient times, since the system bound him to Gu Mengyao for life, it was destined that they couldn’t separate. Even if Gu Yu was willing to give up the spatial storage cheat, he wasn’t willing to sacrifice his own life.
If he could live, he would live; if he couldn’t, he still didn’t want to die.
However, Gu Yu didn’t dislike Gu Mengyao either. He could just treat her as a little sister.
At present, since Gu Mengyao was as flat as a washboard, Gu Yu couldn’t do anything even if he wanted to.
As for future matters, they could be dealt with later!
If he watched her grow up, with him “carefully guiding” her by her side, Gu Mengyao shouldn’t become like other women who made Gu Yu feel troubled…
Since entering the spatial storage at home wasn’t safe, Gu Yu didn’t stay inside for long. After quickly exiting, he waited for a while before slowly sitting up from the bed.
He wasn’t sure if it was his imagination, but Gu Yu felt that after the spatial storage upgraded, his body had also improved somewhat.
At the very least, when Gu Yu got out of bed and walked, his body no longer swayed severely.
“Ah Yu, are you awake? Quickly get back on the bed and sit down. Don’t faint again.”
“It’s fine, I’m feeling much better now. I think I was just too angry earlier…”
Before Gu Yu could test if his body had truly changed, Gu Mengyao entered the room. Seeing Gu Yu out of bed, she immediately spoke with a face full of concern, her small hands supporting Gu Yu’s arms and directly guiding him back to the bed.
After sitting back on the bed, Gu Yu looked at Gu Mengyao with a mix of amusement and helplessness, wondering just how poor his body had been before to make Gu Mengyao treat him as cautiously as a fragile porcelain doll.
Gu Yu truly felt fine now, his body was in excellent condition, so there was no need to continue lying in bed to recuperate.
With this time, he’d rather go to the mountains to get more prey and earn more silver.
“Mengyao, what were you doing just now?”
“The water vat at home… Nothing, just doing some chores. Qingheng said that after building the new house, he wants to raise little chicks, so I ordered a brood from Second Aunt Wang’s house. By the time the new house is almost built, the eggs will have hatched, and we can bring them back to raise.”
After hearing Gu Yu’s question, Gu Mengyao started to speak, but just as she began, she seemed to suddenly remember something and immediately changed the topic, talking about Gu Qingheng’s desire to raise little chicks.
It must be said that Gu Qingheng, this cheap brother, was always a good helper for Gu Mengyao to change topics.
Gu Yu pretended not to hear the first half of Gu Mengyao’s words. When he heard about hatching chicks, he was quite interested.
Before Gu Yu transmigrated, he had lived in the city and had never raised little chicks!
He hadn’t expected to experience this in ancient times.
