I’m really grateful for all the kofi! o((>ω< ))o Thank you Anons, Somebody and NS! A bonus chapter will be coming soon!
Was he hallucinating?
Or was it a surprise prepared by his father and brother?
Yu Xingqiao looked around; he was alone in the large sterile room. The automated door had long been closed, and his brother had left quite some time ago.
He was finally certain that this was not the work of his father and brother.
The young man withdrew his eyes and his gaze fell on the pale yellow envelope lying quietly on the table.
It laid there quietly, as if it had always been there and hadn’t suddenly appeared out of nowhere. But Yu Xingqiao knew better that such a thing could not have appeared in the sterile room.
The shock of the envelope appearing out of thin air was undoubtedly more intense than him entering the game world in his sleep.
But ……
The system said that this was a gift from the cub.
The sudden anticipation in his heart finally overcame the fear of facing the unknown. Yu Xingqiao reached out his hand as his fingertips gently touched the pale yellow envelope.
The smooth and cool touch felt so real: it wasn’t just his imagination.
The youth’s eyes lit up, and he couldn’t help but move faster.
He picked it up and played with it in his hands.
This was the first time he had ever received a letter from someone, not to mention one that travelled through dimensions and was sent from the cub’s world!
The envelope was sealed with a wax-like substance.
Yu Xingqiao did not want to spoil the wholeness of the envelope, so he was careful and took his time in opening it.
Finally, when the seal was successfully opened without a single tear, the youth could not help but reveal a small smile, and his starry eyes shone brightly.
What kind of gift could the cub give him ……
We’re sorry for MTLers or people who like using reading mode, but our translations keep getting stolen by aggregators so we’re going to bring back the copy protection. If you need to MTL please retype the gibberish parts.
With such anticipation, he carefully grabbed the card wrapped in the envelope and slowly drew it out.

The whole painting was great, the composition was smart, the colours were brilliant and bold. It gave off the meaning of bright and beautiful, and was soothing to look at.
Did the cub really paint this?
Yu Xingqiao stared at the painting in his hand without blinking at all.
He couldn’t help but glance at his phone screen again.
In the picture, the little boy was asleep on his desk, his little hand squeezing the brush tightly, and looking at the various paints and discarded cards on the table, it was clear how much thought he had put into it.
This was really a postcard that the cub had personally drawn for him!
Yu Xingqiao’s heart swelled, and the gloomy feeling he felt just now had long disappeared and was replaced by a feeling of gratefulness and joy.
So happy!
This was a postcard from the cub!
He had drawn it for him with his own hands!
The youth finally fully processed this sincerity. He fell backwards onto the bed, his feet facing the ceiling as he vented his overflowing excitement.
He wanted to scream out loud so badly.
His chest was filled with a strange emotion, so strong that he must do something to feel better.
But he could not. If he accidentally attracted the nurse lady’s attention and she found the postcard that appeared out of nowhere, he would have no way of explaining himself.
For the first time in his life, the youth felt such excitement and went crazy for a long time before he finally got a grip on himself.
He laid on his bed, giggling stupidly at the postcard in his hand.
Then he noticed that there was a line of words written on the back of the postcard.
He sat up and brought the back of the postcard up to the light and studied it carefully.
The words were written in a flamboyant, cursive, calligraphic way, graceful and bold, but ……. He couldn’t read it.
What kind of writing is this?
Yu Xingqiao stared at it blankly, but then remembered the language the cub and the rest spoke.
Yes, the cub’s world. They have their own language, so naturally they would have their own writing. It was normal for him to not be able to read it.
So what was he supposed to do with it?!
Yu Xingqiao looked at the words and just felt like scratching his heart and liver, he itched to grab the cub’s shoulder and ask him what he had written on it.
It was just……
After taking a look at the little boy who was sleeping soundly, Yu Xingqiao still couldn’t bear to do so.
He opened his backpack, took a blanket, and draped it over the little boy’s shoulders so that he wouldn’t catch a cold and get sick.
Now he understood that they indeed lived in two different dimensions. The cub’s world was also real; hence, he should take good care of him.
After all, the cub was still so young and could easily get sick and injured.
The youth looked at the little boy with a gaze that was so soft, like a bright moon falling on the surface of a lake, as gentle as the water.
Only when he withdrew his gaze and his eyes fell on the words on the postcard, did his expression fall in an instant.
Ahhhhh, what do these words mean?
If he didn’t find out, he wouldn’t be able to sleep at night!
Suddenly, Yu Xingqiao thought of something. He looked up at the phone screen and asked, “System, do you know what is written on this postcard?”
The system box slowly surfaced.
[Please do not ask about things that are not related to the game.]
Yu Xingqiao couldn’t help but pursed his lips, the system must have known! Even if it couldn’t see this side of the world, as the cub was making the postcard, it must have watched the whole process.
How could it know? It was clearly trying to raise the price!
Yu Xingqiao thought about it and said, “How about this. You translate it for me and I’ll give you a hundred dollars in cash?”
[Five thousand for one word.]
Looking at the words in the system box, You Xingqiao was so angry at the moment that he didn’t even have the energy to hit it. Last time he was in a hurry so he could only allow it to knock the bamboo poles and spend ten thousand dollars to send two words to the cub.
Now it had become addicted to knocking?
Although he was rich, he was not someone that had more money than sense.
Yu Xingqiao was just about to cut the price when he suddenly had a bright idea and remembered something.
“That’s not right. I have the cub log, I don’t need you to translate it at all!”
Thinking of this, Yu Xingqiao hurriedly opened the cub log.
The system tried to stop him, but the youth simply clicked the cross and read the cub log with great interest.
After the cub had finished eating, he went to ask the Grand Elder Fairy for a painting kit and then went out alone to look around.
Seeing him use fairy spells to turn his clothes to a silvery white colour and his hair a starry grey, Yu Xingqiao couldn’t help but stare.
Taking another glance at the game screen, the young boy had changed back to his original appearance, and Yu Xingqiao only felt that he had lost a lot.
I can’t believe I didn’t see the cub in this form!
What a pity!
He lamented for a while before continuing to scroll down.

More please.
10/10 TFTC
Will he really find out what he wrote? Would be nice if that money hungry system could starve for a second lol
Thx for the ch ٩(｡˃ ᵕ ˂ )و
+1 But this system is petty… starve the system and it’ll mince words thoughtlessly with the cub later on to create a problem again.
System : wai- I can lower down the price!
Tysmm for the ch 🤗
