Chapter 1862: Must Always Be “On-Call”
You are a chauffeur.
You are a maid.
You are a teacher.
You are a waiter.
You are a nanny.
You are a nurse.
You are a handyman.
You are an escort.
You are a consultant.
You don’t get any weekends.
You don’t get any sick days.
You don’t get any holidays.
You work around the clock.
You must always be “on-call”, but the reward you get is: “What have you been doing all day?”
If you do have a job, then you still have to do all of the above jobs.
Ning Shu: Haha…
“Do you want a counterattack?” asked Ning Shu, even as she silently repeated the heart-clearing chant. This kind of life was torment. One failed marriage was enough for someone to lose all faith and courage in this kind of life.
In all honesty, even Ning Shu felt insuppressible anger.
“Sure, give me a counterattack,” said Chen Ning. Her arms remained bent, in the position of holding an infant.
“Then what do you wish for?” If she didn’t have any wishes, how was she supposed to counterattack for her? She had to give a goal. If there were no goals, what was the counterattack supposed to be based on? Who knew what this woman wanted?
“I just want to be freed. If your counterattack can end this pain, then you can counterattack.” Chen Ning didn’t really care. She just wanted to be freed from this current spiritual state.
She had become a soul, but she was still conscious and that terribly engraved pain still existed. If she had a choice, she would probably choose to have her soul destroyed.
Mental cancer could sometimes be even more devastating than physical cancer. It made you sick, mentally and emotionally
2333’s voice appeared in Ning Shu’s brain. “Ning Shu, let’s refuse this task.”
“Why?” Ning Shu glanced at Chen Ning as she asked this in surprise.
“A few people have already counterattacked for her, but they all failed,” said 2333.
Ning Shu felt even more surprised. “This task is that hard?”
“The most torturous things in the world are trivial little matters. Some task-takers had directly killed everyone in the An family. Some were even more extreme and even killed everyone in Chen Ning‘s maternal family.”
Ning Shu: My god…
Exactly how hard was this task?
A single marriage situation had caused so many task-takers to fail.
Ning Shu let out a long sigh. “I want to try.”
What kind of world hadn’t she seen before?
“I don’t know how this task ended up being assigned to us. Are you sure? If you fail, you will lose a protective talisman. Protective talismans are pretty much merit points,” said 2333, dragging out his tone. “How about we do the favored concubine system first? Why don’t we destroy the favored concubine system and improve my data first?”
“Nah, I have to try,” said Ning Shu. If she didn’t try, how was she supposed to know whether or not she could do it? When had there ever been an easy task?
The entrustors weren’t offering up their souls for task-takers to go vacationing in their worlds.
“Fine, do what you want.” 2333 didn’t speak again.
“Are you sure you want to offer up all your soul power for this counterattack?” asked Ning Shu again as she looked towards Chen Ning. “Once this transaction is successful, it can’t be changed. I think you should reconsider it.”
