Chapter 109

Upon seeing Mr. Xu again, Xu Nianyun was a bit stunned. In fact, she had noticed something over a year ago on that New Year's Eve.

The current Xu Chao, compared to her memory, had undergone some changes in appearance due to aging, but even his temperament had undergone a dramatic transformation.

The Mr. Xu in her memory was gentle and amiable. She used to think that the younger Mr. Xu had a bit more vitality and sharpness compared to her memory of her father, which was normal for a young person.

But in her memory, her father's gaze never had a sharp, cold gleam. Seeing him again, she realized that it wasn't just her imagination that night.

Although Xu Chao deliberately restrained his aura when he was with Xiaolu, and one could even say he appeared "gentle and kind," perceptive individuals could see that it was an illusion he created for specific individuals. The caution and wariness he unconsciously showed when looking at strangers made Xu Nianyun feel alarmed.

What had he experienced? Under her butterfly effect, had her father borne the weight of a life he shouldn't have endured?

Thinking of this, Xu Nianyun felt a tightness in her chest.

"You seem to be in an exceptionally good mood today." After dutifully following Yun Xiaolu and finishing shopping at three stores, Xu Chao carried a bunch of "spoils" for Yun Xiaolu and asked with a smile if she had encountered something good today.

Yun Xiaolu's mood was indeed extremely good. "Aixuexue" had returned, so how could she not be in a good mood?

"Maybe it's because I haven't bought anything for a long time, and suddenly I realized that buying things can also make people feel good!" Yun Xiaolu happily embarked on another "shopping spree."

Xu Chao raised an eyebrow, feeling that this reason was incredibly powerful. In his memory, his wife and sister-in-law seemed to be the same. They would always be happy whenever they went shopping.

When he thought about his meager salary, Xu Chao felt that he had to work even harder, otherwise, he wouldn't even have the chance to occasionally feel happy.

Yun Xiaolu bought a ton of things today, for her parents, older brother, older sister, and even for the next generation of the family. Whether it was for eating, using, or playing, she bought whatever she felt could be useful.

"Aren't you planning to buy a house? How can you spend so much?" Xu Nianyun couldn't help but comment. She thought Yun Xiaolu had bought too much, and many of these things could have been exchanged within the system.

This spendthrift mother of hers!

Yun Xiaolu felt slightly uncomfortable hearing Xu Nianyun's words. In her mind, she thought, "It's been a while since I've exchanged things in the mall. It's a bit strange all of a sudden."

"It's alright, go ahead and exchange. The system has been upgraded. Unless it's something that goes beyond the common knowledge of this era, you can exchange for anything else. The system will automatically rationalize it, and no one will notice," Xu Nianyun reassured her.

This was one of the reasons she had put in so much effort to upgrade the system, the greatest achievement she had gained from 001. It was this rationalization upgrade of the system.

"So, if I want to exchange points for experimental equipment and instruments, it's also possible?" Yun Xiaolu's excitement grew upon hearing this.

Xu System chuckled. "Of course, but do you have enough points?"

Looking at the small number of points displayed on the account, Yun Xiaolu suddenly felt guilty and short of breath. In the past six months, she had been conducting experiments in the system laboratory every day, and sometimes the daily task points she earned weren't even enough to cover the cost of buying experimental materials. So, she had spent most of her previously saved points.
