After I awakened my inner voice, I became the treasure of my family.

Chapter 95 Zhou Jingyao is a terrifyingly love-struck person.

Time flew by, and two days passed in the blink of an eye. However, before Li Tingxue could take the initiative to explain the whole story to Zhou Jingyao, Zhou Jingyao couldn't wait to go to Shen Xiujin the moment her confinement was lifted.

In the past few days, Zhou Jingyao has been racking her brains and thinking hard about those things, trying to come up with a solution, to the point that she has almost pulled all the hair off her head.

She simply couldn't believe what Shen Xiujin had said, and her heart was filled with doubt and unease.

After much deliberation and struggle, Zhou Jingyao finally made up her mind. She wanted to find out if she was really as they said, a so-called vicious cannon fodder female supporting character.

When Shen Xiujin heard Zhou Jingyao's purpose, he was startled and immediately looked behind her, afraid that if Zhou Jingyao's father heard her words, he might take a knife and kill him.

Shen Xiujin quickly spoke up, trying to persuade her earnestly: "Zhou Jingyao, didn't I already make it very clear to you before? On that day, you almost lost your life!"

Even so, you still want to try it. What if something unexpected happens next time, and you don't even have the chance to try anymore? Then you won't even have a chance to regret it!

Besides, this is no joke; it's a real, life-threatening situation. Are you really sure you still want to take this risk?

He seriously suspected that Zhou Jingyao's mind was different from ordinary people. Could it be that she took after her father, being a bit reckless?

Despite Shen Xiujin's persuasion, Zhou Jingyao did not change her mind. She nodded and then replied earnestly:

"Shen Xiujin, your mother once said that if we can confirm our relationship, then from now on I will be considered one of your family members."

In that case, even if something unexpected happens, it shouldn't threaten my life. So why don't we solidify our relationship first, and then give it a try? What harm could there be?

Moreover, it's not just you who wants to change your own fate in the story; I also want to change the fate of that cannon fodder character. We have the same goal, a common purpose, so wouldn't it be better to change things together? What do you think?

Shen Xiujin: "..."

Hmm, that makes sense, but...did Mother really say that? He was very skeptical of Zhou Jingyao's words. How come he didn't know that? Could it be that Zhou Jingyao was deliberately fooling him for this experiment?

You know, his sister-in-law went to the general's mansion with his mother that day. So why didn't she mention this to him?

However, only the parties involved truly know the specific details of how these two individuals ultimately reached an agreement.

All that is known is that after several back-and-forth, tentative negotiations, and some baffling "guesses and wild guesses," the two of them inexplicably and inexplicably confirmed their romantic relationship.

So, when the two of them told Jiang Mianmian the news, one can imagine the completely bewildered and shocked expression on her face.

Jiang Mianmian's eyes widened, her mouth slightly agape, and she stood frozen in place as if struck by lightning, silently muttering to herself:

What kind of mess is this? How come I didn't hear a thing beforehand? How did we suddenly end up together? This second brother is really tight-lipped.

But today, the two of them suddenly came to tell her that they had gotten together and started dating! But looking at their eyes, she couldn't see any obvious feelings of being in love at all.

Filled with curiosity and confusion, Jiang Mianmian couldn't help but ask, "Are you two really dating? Is it true, or are you just joking with me?"

[Could it be that the second son deliberately lied to Zhou Jingyao? That brat, how could he do such a thing! And this naive, silly girl, does she even know the truth about the second son?]

Could it be that this little girl really likes the second brother, even knowing that staying by his side is dangerous, and might even cost her her life, she's still willing to risk everything for him...?

Thinking of this, Jiang Mianmian couldn't help but raise her head and look directly at Zhou Jingyao in front of her, her heart filled with shock and disbelief.

However, after seeing the love in Zhou Jingyao's eyes when she looked at the second son, Jiang Mianmian suddenly understood and felt relieved, and sighed in her heart.

Wow, the power of love is truly immense, especially for those who are head over heels in love; nothing else matters. Indeed! This immense power of love can even transcend life and death, wow!

[If the second son were to follow in his father's footsteps and do something to wrong Zhou Jingyao, even the heavens wouldn't let him off the hook; they'd surely send down a bolt of lightning to shatter his soul!]

Just then, Shen Xiujin, who was sitting to the side, suddenly heard his mother's words and was so frightened that he trembled all over, as if a thunderbolt had really fallen from the sky and struck him directly.

In an instant, he felt a chill rise up his spine and spread rapidly throughout his body, causing him to shiver involuntarily and break out in goosebumps.

Remembering his mother's jinxed nature, he hurriedly began to explain:

“Mother, you really misunderstand our relationship. Didn’t you just tell me a few days ago that I should find someone to act as my fake fiancée? So, Zhou Jingyao and I were just doing what you asked us to do.”

Shen Xiujin was afraid that his mother would not believe him and would continue to overthink things, so he continued to explain: "Also, Zhou Jingyao and I have discussed it and agreed that for the time being, we will pretend to be a couple."

If nothing unexpected happens during this period, then when the time is right, we can pretend to have a falling out.

"But what if something really happens?"

Shen Xiujin: "..."

At this moment, Shen Xiujin gave Zhou Jingyao a wink, and she understood immediately, explaining to Jiang Mianmian with a smile:

"Auntie, don't worry. If anything unexpected happens, we can just spend more time together. Then we can make further plans based on the specific circumstances."

Jiang Mianmian turned her gaze to Zhou Jingyao, staring intently at her delicate and pretty face, and said with a mixture of helplessness and exasperation:

“My child, don’t you know how dangerous this is? If your father knew about this, he would probably be on his way to my house with a machete by now.”

Believe it or not, he could just chop up the second son without saying a word and then mince him to pieces!

Zhou Jingyao couldn't help but burst out laughing after hearing this, nodding repeatedly in agreement: "That's right, Auntie, you're absolutely right! My father does have a very fiery temper, he's definitely capable of doing something like this."

However, to be honest, I'm actually quite curious myself; there's just something strange and incongruous about this whole thing.

"Those cannon fodder female supporting characters, male protagonists, and female protagonists, those storylines that originally only existed in storybooks, have unexpectedly happened to us."

This is really hard for me to believe. It feels like everything around me is so fake and unreal. It feels so fake!

As for me, I was simply driven by curiosity to find out if the world I live in truly exists, or whether this whole thing was just a figment of everyone's imagination.

Jiang Mianmian asked her with a serious expression, "Zhou Jingyao, what if all of this is true? Think about it, the trouble you encountered at the city gate last time, it was the second brother who saved you and allowed you to escape danger and save your life."

But who can guarantee you'll be so lucky next time? After all, life is only once, so no matter when or where, you must cherish every moment.

At this point, Jiang Mianmian frowned, secretly speculating in her heart. She seriously suspected that the second son, that brat, might be trying to change the course of the story by using his handsome face to deceive people.

He deliberately failed to explain the ins and outs and the dangers of the matter to the girl, and thus deceived her without her knowledge. If that's the case, then he has truly committed a sin!

Oh dear! If it's really as I think, then that second brother is a real jerk!

[Knowing full well that the other person liked him, he took advantage of that affection and acted recklessly, doing so many absurd things. He's even worse than that scumbag father! Look at him, how could a human being do such a thing!]

At this moment, Zhou Jingyao's face was flushed like the evening glow, her heart filled with embarrassment and awkwardness. Recalling her previous discussion with Shen Xiujin, she hadn't revealed to him at all that she was interested in him.

So how did this Lady Hou know about her innermost thoughts? Zhou Jingyao was completely baffled and could only secretly guess that perhaps Lady Hou truly possessed extraordinary observational skills.

Just then, Shen Xiujin, who had been silent all along, suddenly turned his gaze to Zhou Jingyao's slightly shy face, a meaningful smile playing on his lips, secretly pleased with himself.

Even if you don't say it, I know perfectly well. Nowadays, nothing in this world, big or small, can escape my mother's discerning eyes!
