[Oh, you guys are done? Then I'll unblock you.]

Xin Sui: "...What do you mean 'end'? It hasn't even started yet!"

[Really? Well, I got all excited for nothing.]

Why are you so agitated?

"If you two really did *that*, maybe Xuan Tu's corruption level could be reset to zero in one go? Wouldn't I be excited then?"

Xin Sui: "..."

I never expected your system to be so filthy.

[Host has completed their mission. Reward: a 10% discount coupon for the system shop (can be used on any item)]

10% off coupon...

"What is the 10% discount on Dream Eater Beads?"

Xin Sui asked the system directly.

[349.2 coins]

In other words, she only needs to save up 61.2, or 62 coins, to buy it!

Wait a minute, Xuan Tu's corruption value dropped by several points last night, her current balance is... 338!

Only 12 more coins are needed.

If Xuan Tu's corruption value drops by another 2 points, the Dream Eater Pearl will be yours!

Xin Sui could hardly believe that happiness had come so quickly.

I used to think that the Dream Eater Pearl was out of reach, but now I realize that with a little effort, I can get it.

For a time, Xin Sui's enthusiasm for completing the task soared to unprecedented heights.

"System, what other tasks are there? Release them all."

[...]

[Kissing? Making love? Want to?]

Xin Sui: "..."

I'm outta here.

In terms of scale, how could she possibly compete with the system?

Xin Sui packed up and went to work.

As for breakfast, that's obviously out of the question; let Xuantu handle that.

When Xin Sui arrived at the restaurant, she didn't see anyone from Fang Cheng delivering gifts, which she found rather strange.

For the past few days, he has been personally bringing her gifts every day, each one more expensive than the last.

Why didn't you come today?

Have they given up?

Just as I was thinking about it, Fang Cheng's assistant arrived.

"Miss Li, our president has fallen ill due to excessive worry and is unable to get out of bed."

"So I can't come to deliver the gift to you in person. I hope you won't mind if I do it for you."

Xin Sui paused in stirring the soup. "Really? Then it seems I'll have to find some time to visit and offer my condolences."

Assistant: "No, no, please don't go. Uh, I mean, the healer suggested that the president rest and avoid receiving guests to prevent his condition from worsening."

Xin Sui tasted the soup; it was truly delicious.

"Oh, in that case, I won't go. Could you please bring a bowl of soup to Chairman Fang for me?"

"Okay, I will definitely give it to the president personally and tell him that it is a token of your appreciation."

Xin Sui handed the thermos containing the soup to his assistant.

"I heard that the Fang family recently built a mecha. I'm very curious. I wonder if Chairman Fang could send it over for me to take a look?"

The assistant was slightly taken aback, but quickly realized what he meant and said, "I will relay your words to the chairman when I get back."

"What? Li Xueli wants me to send her the mecha that our Fang family just developed to take a look at?"

A brightly colored and luxuriously decorated bedroom.

Fang Cheng, who "couldn't even get out of bed," was wearing a brightly colored feather nightgown.

He was sitting at the coffee table, happily eating the meal his assistant had brought back.

Upon hearing the assistant relay "Li Xueli's" words, he immediately became agitated.

He got up and walked around the room with a crab stick that was as thick as a chicken leg in his hand.

"Li Xueli didn't just want to see that mecha; she clearly wanted to get her hands on it!"

"This woman is really audacious, she's incredibly arrogant!"

"It's bad enough that Xuan Tu is bullying me, but now even one of his mistresses dares to disregard me. How hateful!"

He took a vicious bite of the crab stick in his hand.

The wonderful taste in his mouth improved his mood.

But the thought that all this food came from "Li Xueli" made her look at the crab sticks with displeasure.

"You go out first, let me think about it."

"yes."

Fangcheng quickly finished the food and then collapsed on the sofa for a while.

Then I went into the bathroom and tidied myself up.

She was wearing a plain-colored outfit when she came out.

This is quite different from the colorful and eye-catching clothing styles of the past.

The equation was placed on the table and supported by a stand.

Then he dialed his father's number, which was Fang He, the head of the Fang family.

He tightened his stomach, stood tall and straight in front of the crystal card, his hands pressed against his pants, waiting nervously.

Finally, a figure was projected out by the crystal card.

He was an old man wearing glasses and a gray long gown, with an air of scholarly refinement.

He has deep forehead wrinkles and nasolabial folds, a serious expression, and sharp eyes.

It was Fang He, the father of the equation.

Although he has been an adult for a long time, Fang Cheng still can't help but tremble in his calves every time he faces his father.

"Father." Fang Cheng swallowed hard and called out with a smile.

Fang He: "Don't give me that frivolous look. What is it? Speak."

Fang Cheng felt a tightness in his scalp, and his face tensed up as well.

"Xuan Tu wants our family's newly developed mecha."

Fang He frowned, and a "川" (river) character appeared between his brows.

"What's going on? How did you provoke Xuan Tu again? Didn't I tell you to stay put?"

"I don't expect you to achieve anything, just behave yourself and don't make any mistakes. Can't you even do something that simple?"

Fang Cheng hesitated, as if he wanted to say something, but ultimately lacked the courage to refute.

"Are you mute? I'm asking you what happened?"

Fang Cheng wiped the sweat from his palms on his trouser leg and recounted the whole story from beginning to end.
