Chapter 16: Reputation Points

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Gu Miaomiao did not understand the worries of adults.

She found that the milk candy was more delicious than meat, and she immediately fell in love with the taste.

If Liu Yue didn’t remind her to look for vegetables, Gu Miaomiao would have sat by the roadside and eaten candy for the whole afternoon.

How could there be something so delicious in this world? The system didn’t lie to her. There were many delicacies in the modern world!

The people they met were all warm-hearted people, and they had gained a lot.

Gu Miaomiao didn’t want to gain without doing any work, but the incident with the Five-Element Fist had left a deep impression on her. She was a proud girl. Since she was suspected, she didn’t want to perform for these people. She helped the master with other things. Liu Yue also helped.

This made the director and the audience, who had been waiting eagerly, pissed off.

[ From today onwards, I’m going to call her a little baddie. ]

[ God knows how many times I’ve watched those short clips. ]

[ Hey, where did you watch them? Who edited them? ]

[ Zhu Fangfangfang. This name is all over the platform. Just search it up. ]

The ancient martial arts system paid close attention to everyone’s reaction and found that the reputation points in the background were rising rapidly. It once again had a new understanding of humans.

What one couldn’t get was the best.

On the way back, Gu Miaomiao and Liu Yue were carrying heavy baskets.

“If you can’t carry it, let me do it.”

Gu Miaomiao held a basket in one hand. No one knew that she was controlling the basket with her inner energy, so her arm wouldn’t take too much.

Liu Yue was a little ashamed, and her fair face blushed.

“I’m sorry, I was too weak.”

“No, no, it’s just that my strength is too great.”

Gu Miaomiao carried her own basket in one hand and Liu Yue’s basket in the other.

Seeing the pork and fish in the basket, she sucked in her saliva.

“Wow! I’m really looking forward to dinner. My second elder brother will definitely make a lot of delicious dishes,” Gu Miaomiao said.

In fact, she also had skills related to cooking, but using these skills would make her hungry faster. It would be even better if her second elder brother could cook delicious food.

[ Miaomiao is probably going to be disappointed. ]

[ As far as I know, Gu Che doesn’t even know how to stir-fry tomatoes and eggs. ]

[ Yanyan knows how to cook. He can make braised fish and braised meat. ]

Just as he was about to meet up with the parents, the ancient martial system suddenly spoke.

[ Dear host, your reputation points have reached 2000 and are still rising. ]

With a “Dong” sound, the baskets in Gu Miaomiao’s hands fell to the ground.

“Miaomiao, are the baskets too heavy?”

Liu Yue tried her best to drag the two baskets to the side of the road. “Let’s sit down and rest for a while,” she said.

Gu Miaomiao followed her and sat on the side of the road. Her chubby little hands held her chubby face as she secretly communicated with the system.

[ Why are there so many reputation points suddenly? I just remembered that I forgot to spread ancient martial arts! ]

The milk candy was too delicious, and she had to complete the mission seriously. The houses in the village were all beautiful, much better than the house she used to live in. Gu Miaomiao was so immersed in it that she forgot her main purpose.

The system felt that it was a good thing that she had forgotten.

[ Dear host, I’ve studied the human mind carefully. Next, just let nature take its course. ]

[ What does it mean? ]

[ That is to say, in the future, if you want to perform or show off, do as you wish. I won’t force you to do anything. ]

[ But I won’t have reputation points if I do this, right? ]

[ No, you don’t understand the thinking of modern humans. If you show the ancient martial arts to them all at once, they might not be convinced. Take it slow and let nature take its course. It’s better. ]

This unexpected surprise changed the system’s attitude. It no longer urged Gu Miaomiao to spread ancient martial arts as soon as possible. Letting nature take its course might achieve better results.

Gu Miaomiao rubbed its chubby face in distress.

[ Little Gugu, I didn’t understand what you said just now. ]

[ Dear host, you can eat and drink well, have fun, and find your family. You can do anything as long as you’re happy. ]

Gu Miaomiao was almost moved to tears, but she still wanted to earn one billion reputation points so that she could find her parents’ whereabouts.

[ Dear host, spreading ancient martial arts can earn you reputation points. There are actually several types of ways to spread ancient martial arts. ]

[ 1. People watch it and remember it, not just simply browsing; 2. They spread it once or many times and remember it; 3. They are convinced. All of these ways can produce reputation points. The calculation method is very complicated. ]

[ Your simple performance just now was to gain some reputation points through the first method. But now, the second method is rapidly providing reputation points. ]

The best thing about the modern world was the speed at which information spread. Gu Miaomiao only needed to perform it once, and everyone would quickly spread it. In that case, Gu Miaomiao could do anything that she wanted to do. There was no need to feel so much pressure.

One billion was a number that Gu Miaomiao couldn’t see the end of. It was not good if she was constantly under pressure because of this number.

Gu Miaomiao trusted the system very much.

When she had transmigrated to ancient times, the system had also secretly used its energy to exchange for medicine to cure her.

Since the system had said so, Gu Miaomiao would just let nature take its course!

Gu Miaomiao, who had suddenly relaxed, held a basket in each hand and ran toward its destination while making weird sounds.

“Miaomiao, don’t run so fast.”

Liu Yue quickly caught up with her.

[ Oh my God, she’s so strong. ]

[ She is carrying so many things and still being as light as a swallow. Do you guys think she knows some movement skills? ]

[ Buddy, you’ve watched too many martial arts movies. ]

[ As light as a swallow? It’s just a little ball running. ]

Outside Gu Che’s apartment.

Gu Cheng had unknowingly watched the live broadcast on his phone from morning to evening, and only came back to his senses when his phone indicated that the battery was low.

He entered the elevator and returned to his apartment. He charged his phone and continued to watch the live broadcast.

The assistant director had sent him a message asking when he was going back.

Gu Cheng was speechless.

[ Three days later. ]

Thinking that the first livestream would take three days and two nights to finish and that he had to meet his sister officially, he changed the time.

[ Five days later. There’re only some finishing touches left. You’ll be in charge. ]

[ Okay. ]

However, after putting down his phone, the assistant director, who was far away in another city, muttered, “This doesn’t seem like that workaholic Director Gu. When did he ever take leave? Why did he take such a long leave?”

He would work for as many days as there were in a year.

“He even wants us to be responsible for it. Doesn’t he always do it himself?”

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that something was amiss. The assistant director had a flash of inspiration. “Director Gu’s account has been hacked!”

He quickly made the call. He would not be at ease if he did not hear Gu Cheng’s voice.
