Chapter 319: The Fruit Shopkeeper

After a lot of struggle in his heart, Charlotte finally made a decision.

"Although the ending may not be as I wish, if I don't try my best to change it, I will definitely leave regrets. After all, God has given me this opportunity. This opportunity is once a lifetime, and once I miss it, I can never come back. Therefore, I must not waste this extremely precious opportunity.

Dad, mother and master, I must let them survive. Although I can't repay their selfless nurturing grace, if they can reverse their miserable fate, it would be considered filial piety. This approach is inevitably a little selfish, but now I have no other choice.

Since I am back, I will not let those tragedies happen in front of me again. Even if I am determined to do my own thing and go against the will of heaven, I will save them. Dad, mother, master, wait for me..." Charlotte thought to himself.

Charlotte's eyes, which had just seemed a little turbid, suddenly became extremely clear and flashed with a firm light. Her mood was no longer shaking and she would not hesitate ever since.

"I must now confirm today's date so that I can know how much time is left before the tragedy happens, so as to make sufficient preparations to ensure that there is no accident and never sharpen the gun in the face of battle. There is only one opportunity, and I must seize it well and not make any mistakes."

Thinking of this, Charlotte left all his concerns, took steps, and resolutely walked towards the fruit stall.

From this moment on, she will officially integrate into this past period and start her journey of "reversing her destiny".

When Charlotte walked to the front of the fruit stall, the owner of the fruit stall finally noticed her existence.

The amiable old man with a brown-haired face showed a kind smile the moment he saw Charlotte, greeting him enthusiastically with a little hoarse voice.

"Xiao Xia is here. Are you hot and thirsty? I don't know what happened in the past few days, but it's surprisingly hot. The sunshine every day is very poisonous. It seems that this kind of weather has never happened in Beijuluzhou. It's so weird. Come on, eat an apple and you should feel much more comfortable."

The fruit shop owner John picked up an apple and handed it to Charlotte, and there was no intention of asking her to spend money to buy it. John had known Charlotte's parents a long time ago and was very close to each other. He could be said to have grown up watching Charlotte and loved this lively and optimistic girl very much. Every time Charlotte passed by John's fruit shop, John would give her the freshest fruit and never charge a penny.

For John, as long as he sees her smiling face, he can get a good mood for the day. He hopes that Charlotte can eat more because she is too thin.

However, when he found that John was talking to him as usual, Charlotte suddenly stood there in his place, and various questions emerged in his mind.

"Why did Grandpa John talk to me as if nothing had happened? After so many years, my appearance should be different from my childhood. Even if my father and mother want to recognize me, they will have to look carefully for a while. Could it be..."

Thinking of this, Charlotte couldn't help but look at his body.

For such a long time, she had not paid attention to her "form" in this world. She naturally thought that her appearance would not change. Charlotte, who had been filled with complex thoughts in her mind, had no time to look at her body.

When Charlotte sees

I was now confused again.

She was wearing a light gray cloth dress, only a height of four feet, a thin body, and an overly slender little hands, and every detail told her, "This is what you looked like a hundred years ago."

"How could this happen? Didn't I go through time, but returned to my own body when I was young? This is too ridiculous."

Charlotte immediately tried to condense his spiritual power, and then found that the spiritual power in his meridians was pitifully insufficient to cast any advanced spells.

"It's not a good sign that even his cultivation has retreated a hundred years ago. In this way, it may be more difficult than imagined to change history... God may have given me not only an opportunity, but also a challenge that is as difficult as heaven." Charlotte frowned slightly, and a look of worry appeared on his face.

"It has been very hot in the past few days..." Charlotte remembered what John had just said again, and his heart was slightly shaking.

"Is this prove that there are less than two weeks before the silent disaster? It's too close, and I'm afraid there is not enough time to prepare for the plan... What should I do next?"

The more Charlotte thought about it, his face became more anxious, and his expression turned red, and he showed a look like he had heatstroke.

John was immediately startled by Charlotte's change in his face and said hurriedly: "Xiao Xia, you're fine. Look at your face as if you have heatstroke. Is it uncomfortable? If you feel uncomfortable, you must say it out loud. Can't you bear it?

The weather has been so strange recently, which makes it difficult for those of us who have been living in the ice and snow town to adapt. You are so young, it may be even more difficult to get used to it. Don’t get stuck because of this weather. There is a doctor in the village who is proficient in medical science. You should know where he lives. If you really feel uncomfortable, go to him for treatment quickly, and you can’t delay it.”

After hearing John's words in a hurry, Charlotte came to her senses. She knew that John was worried about her and her heart couldn't help but feel warm. But when she thought that John was not spared from the disaster, her chest felt like she was repeatedly poked by a sharp silver needle, which was heartbroken, and almost made her unable to breathe.

Charlotte quickly took a deep breath and took a breath, so he calmed down the feeling of heartache.

At this moment, Charlotte's expression gradually returned to normal. She smiled slightly and said to John with an anxious face: "Grandpa John, I'm fine, you don't have to worry about me. Although it's really hot recently, my body can still stand it and it's impossible to get sick. But she has always sweated recently, which has caused her physical energy to be consumed much faster than before, and she can't exercise well."

When John heard this, his expression immediately calmed down and laughed happily, "Haha, although you little girl looks thin, your physical fitness is pretty good. I'm not feeling well recently, and you don't feel anything.

However, it is recommended that you do not exercise in this kind of weather. If you are accidentally exhausted, it is better to stay at home honestly.

My fruit shop is pretty good, and I am in a shady place. Otherwise, my old bone would not be able to hold on to the violent sunshine and the fruit would not be able to sell it."

When John said this, he raised the apple in his hand and said, "It feels like you are different from usual. You are no longer interested in apples. I feel sore when I raise my hand, you don't even eat it. It's so strange.

If it was before

, You should snatch it quickly and chew it in big mouthfuls. Does Xiao Xia no longer look down on Grandpa's apple? Grandpa is a little sad."

John made a "sad" look, his exaggerated expression made people laugh.

When Charlotte saw John's expression, he immediately burst out laughing, and almost forgot his heavy mission. John's humorous character always makes her forget all the sad things, and he can make everyone who comes to this fruit shop reap happiness. Half of Charlotte's childhood memories were left in this fruit shop.

"Not only father, mother and master, I want every villager who died in that disaster to survive peacefully. They are so kind and amiable. Why do they suffer such bad luck? I must not let that tragedy happen to me for a second time."

Charlotte was no longer in a daze, so he took the apple in John's hand and said coquettishly: "Who said I don't like it anymore? The apples in Grandpa John's store are the best. They are very sweet and I can't even eat enough. I was just thinking about things just now. Where did you think about it?"

After saying that, Charlotte bit the apple in one bite. The sweet taste in her mouth made her unable to stop, and she couldn't stop after taking it.

"It's so sweet. It's really the taste of childhood. It's so delicious. I can't remember how long it's been since I've eaten such delicious food." The taste of the apple made Charlotte feel relaxed, and the accumulated sadness in his heart immediately dissipated a lot.

"Don't eat enough? It's obvious that I want to give you more every time, but you politely refuse. Just eat as much as you want. With your little appetite, you won't make grandpa poor, don't worry." John smiled.

"I know, grandpa, you can't make much money every day, so why do you feel embarrassed to always eat for nothing? When I have some savings in the future, I will definitely repay my grandpa for taking care of me over the years." Charlotte said very seriously.

"It's wrong for you to say this. How can you be so disgusted with grandpa? This is not like your usual style." John showed a hint of displeasure on his face when he heard this, obviously disgusted Charlotte's tone.

"Grandpa John, I have grown up and no longer a child. I have also begun to understand some principles of life. Being grateful is the duty of being a human being. Over the years, you have always cared for me like my biological daughter, and I will never forget this kind of kindness in my life."

The sincere feelings contained in Charlotte's words deeply touched John's heart and made him feel a long-lost warmth and touch. Since his wife passed away, he has not experienced the taste of family affection for a long time.

"I haven't heard such touching words for many years, and I can't remember them myself. This feeling is really good."

John smiled from the bottom of his mouth, the happiest time he had laughed in decades.

"Grandpa feels your feelings. You have been here for many years and stay with me. As long as you are here, I will not feel lonely. This is enough to be rewarded. Grandpa does not need other compensation, as long as you visit frequently in the future." John said sincerely.

When the words were finished, before Charlotte could reply, John deliberately changed the subject in order to ease the slightly awkward context: "Girl, you seemed to be thinking about something, and you said you have grown up. You won't be a man you like. I didn't expect you to be this age too."
