When Jacob woke up again, he looked around and found that the person who had been pestering him for a long time did not appear in front of him as before.

Jacob thought Jiuqi had something urgent to do, but after waiting for a long time no one showed up. He pursed his lips and called Jiuqi a few times in his heart, but unfortunately there was no response.

After a while, Jacob called out several times in his heart, but there was still no response. He tried several times until Jacob's little body could not hold on any longer and he fell asleep again in a daze, still without getting a response from Jiu Qi.

Jacob didn't see Jiuqi again for the next week. He called the other's name in his heart, but never got a response.

But every night when he fell asleep, he would feel the same warm current as the day he ate the bead. He knew that it was a sign that Jiu Qi had come, but Jacob didn't understand why he didn't want to see him.

It was another night, and Jiuqi stuffed the plant essence into Jacob's mouth. Seeing the baby struggling to wake up and about to open his eyes, Jiuqi quickly left a small monitoring bug and slipped away.

Jiu Qi didn't return to Jacob until he fell asleep again. He had been doing this these days, only coming to see him when Jacob was asleep.

After leaving that day, Jiuqi came back once later because he forgot to leave the monitoring puppet and Yin Stone with Jacob. No matter what, Jiuqi would not feel at ease if he did not leave a backup plan.

When he came out of Jacob's house again, Jiuqi drank alcohol for the first time in his life. In the last world, he promised KO that he would never touch alcohol when KO was not around.

But Jiuqi was in a really bad mood today, so he couldn't help but break the return realm.

The feeling of being forgotten by a loved one was not good. Even though he could sense the familiarity coming from the other person's soul, that person's eyes made Jiuqi feel very unfamiliar.

I had clearly decided before that no matter what KO became, I would not separate from him, I would find him back, and I would make him fall in love with me again.

But when she was really forgotten and guarded against, Jiu Qi still couldn't force herself to pretend that she didn't care. She had to immediately put everything aside and cultivate feelings with that stranger.

That night Jiuqi hid on the edge of the cliff. Even though the place was so high that it made him break out in a cold sweat, Jiuqi still found a rock to lie down on and kept getting drunk.

Looking at the crescent moon in the sky, Jiuqi's face had no expression, but his hands kept raising and putting down. Bottle after bottle of liquor flowed through his throat like fire, burning his chest, choking Jiuqi so much that he couldn't control the tears that flowed from the corners of his eyes.

Perhaps it was because of his practice, even after taking in so much alcohol, Jiuqi was only 50% drunk.

At this moment, a childish cry came from his mind. Jiuqi really wanted to go and see him, but he still controlled the urge to run over to see him until he fell asleep. At this time, blood was already flowing from the palms of Jiuqi's hands.

For more than a month after that, Jacob tried to call Jiuqi's name every day. He didn't understand why Jiuqi was hiding from him but would still wait for him to fall asleep every day to bring him good things.

This inexplicable situation made Jacob both panicked and angry, so after he confirmed that no matter how hard he looked for Jiu Qi, he still didn't want to come and talk to him for the time being.

Jacob also got angry. No matter how good-looking the person is, he can't play tricks on people like this, so Jacob decided that from today on he would no longer look for anyone!

The relationship between the two remained at a stalemate until Jacob grew to eight months old. After being nourished by plant essences every day for 97 years, his body became so strong that one punch could even give Billy a black eye.

But that day I "accidentally" caught a cold and even had a high fever in the evening.

It happened that Billy and his wife were out on clan business today and were not at home. The two sisters thought they had put him to sleep, so they played video games in their rooms.

Jacob, who was unattended at the moment, had a fever and his vision was blurry. His mind was "unconsciously" repeating words like "It's so hot, it's so uncomfortable".

More than ten seconds later, Jiuqi finally appeared in Jacob's room. Looking at the baby whose face was red from the fever, Jiuqi came to the bedside and picked him up anxiously.

"I really owe you"

A somewhat helpless voice came into Jacob's ears, and then Jiu Qi's warm hand held his little hand, and a familiar warm current slowly spread from his palm to his whole body.

Jacob rubbed Jiuqi's body greedily. For some reason, the fruity scent on this man made him feel particularly comfortable.

After Jacob's fever finally subsided, Jiu Qi put the baby in her arms back into the crib. The two looked at each other after a long separation, but they didn't know what to say. There was inevitably some awkwardness in the air.

"You don't want to see me"

The soft bed was no longer as comfortable as before. Seeing the other person looking a little embarrassed, even though he still felt aggrieved, the generous Jacob took the initiative to open the topic.

"No, it's just me. I haven't finished my mission yet. I'm monitoring him these days, so I'm a bit busy."

Jiu Qi made a clumsy excuse. He didn't dare say that he had been drinking most of the time, but it was not a lie. He had indeed been monitoring Felix.

“Will there be any danger?”

"Not for now, and even less so after I break through later."

"You are a deity, can you still break through?"

"Of course, gods are also divided into different levels."

So that's how it is. Although Jacob only believed part of it, he did feel a little better. However, he still blinked his watery eyes and looked at Jiu Qi.

Since he was born in his previous life, few people cared about him, and no one had ever been silently kind to him. Jacob always remembered how good Jiuqi had been to him these days.

Maybe it was because Jiu Qi had been avoiding him these days that made him a little confused, or maybe it was because of the fever, but Jacob was unusually fragile at this moment, and there was inevitably some resentment in his tone.

"Will you be the same as before?"

"...I won't do that anymore."

After receiving the accusation from the child, Jiu Qi felt a little guilty, and warned himself in his heart that it was enough to be pretentious for so long.

He really didn't know how to face Jacob these days. Every time he saw him, Jiu Qi couldn't control the discomfort in his heart.

But today, when he was called by that weak voice, even though he knew that the other party just had a cold and nothing would happen, Jiu Qi was still so worried that he couldn't do anything and couldn't pretend anymore, so he quickly came to Jacob's side.

Jacob got a satisfactory answer and was in a good mood. His little body could not resist the sleepiness that came over him, but he did not want to sleep, for fear that the man would disappear again when he woke up.

"Go to sleep. I'll watch you sleep and make sure you can see me when you wake up."

Jiu Qi felt a little distressed by the child's appearance, so he touched Jacob's little hand. He did not struggle even when the other party held his hand. He just floated in the air and watched him slowly fall asleep.

Jacob's illness broke the deadlock between the two. From that day on, whenever he had free time, Jacob would ask Jiuqi about what he was doing before, and of course he also shared his previous life with Jiuqi.

After getting to know each other, the two naturally began to become friends who could talk about anything. After learning about Jacob's previous life, Jiuqi began to understand why Jacob resisted their relationship. Even though she still felt sad, Jiuqi accepted the decision that they could only be friends for the time being.

However, Jiu Qi would still think of KOing Jacob when he made certain little habits.
