Chapter 11 System, are you even capable of doing this?

Lin Yan'an noticed the movement beside him and squinted in confusion.

He glanced at the screen on her phone out of the corner of his eye, then looked into her bright, sparkling eyes through the phone's light. Noticing the look of desire mixed with a struggle between greed and reason in those eyes, a slight smile played on his lips.

Lin Yan'an reached out, took her phone, tapped it lightly, and then tossed it aside.

"Hey? What are you doing?"

Feeling the warmth emanating from her as they moved, Lin Yan'an had a sudden thought and casually placed his hand on her lower abdomen.

Zhong Wan, with her sharp eyes, saw what he had done and chuckled, "You did this, huh? You're not going to be so rude as to ask me to return it, are you?"

"Oh,"

Lin Yan'an scoffed speechlessly: "I'm not that shameless."

"Go to sleep."

Zhong Wan instantly beamed with joy.

She even thoughtfully reached out to cover him with the blanket, saying with a smile, "Okay, honey, thank you, honey, goodnight."

Sweet dreams.

Just listening to her, Lin Yan'an could almost picture her playful expression, and a slight smile involuntarily crept onto his lips.

On a whim, he instinctively pulled her into his arms.

I felt a warm, soft embrace, and my heart felt incredibly comforted.

But Zhong Wan felt extremely awkward.

Her smile froze instantly, and she frowned at the person beside her: "If you're going to sleep, then sleep. Why are you hugging me?"

While struggling, she continued, "Let me go, or I'll beat you up."

Sensing her resistance, Lin Yan'an regretfully let go of her hand.

Freed from her grasp, Zhong Wan rolled onto the edge of the bed, looking at Lin Yan'an warily and warning, "Let me tell you, we're not that close yet."

"Do you understand 'each gets what they need'?"

"Heh, now you're denying he's your husband?"

Lin Yan'an spoke casually, but Zhong Wan chuckled somewhat guiltily: "Even so, we still need to get to know each other first."

"Tsk."

"But what if I feel that it would be quieter in my ears if I were close to you?"

Upon hearing this, Zhong Wan frowned, and asked in her mind with great doubt, "System, is what he said true?"

Yes, the Tranquility Domain starts with you, so naturally the closer it is to you, the better the effect.

Zhong Wan frowned, looking somewhat conflicted.

Thinking about the repost I just received, and the ghost that appeared tonight because of him,

Zhong Wan couldn't help but sigh inwardly and silently reached out her hand.

"Then... here, take my hand, go to sleep!"

Seeing this, a smile flashed in Lin Yan'an's eyes, and he reached out and grasped her hand without hesitation.

Zhong Wan tried to ignore the strange feeling in her hand, closed her eyes, and tried to fall asleep.

But before long, I heard his even and deep breathing.

As Zhong Wan listened, she unknowingly drifted off to sleep.

The next day, early morning,

Zhong Wan groggily opened her eyes, took out her phone, and glanced at the time: 5:20 AM.

Then I closed my eyes and rested for a while, listening to the pattering rain outside the window and feeling the tranquility of the room.

Zhong Wan felt sleepy again.

For a fleeting second, she wanted to drift off to sleep, but then she thought of the bare little wallet in her hand...

Zhong Wan couldn't help but sigh, and stood up.

Huh?

Unexpectedly, she failed to get up. Zhong Wan instantly perked up and quickly looked down, her brows furrowing slightly at the large hand on her waist.

Zhong Wan looked up from her hand along her arm, her eyes full of questions, and then at the strange man beside her.

Looking at his handsome yet slightly tired face, and the undeniable dark circles under his eyes,

Zhong Wan then remembered what had happened yesterday.

She couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

I picked up my phone, looked at my most recent chat contact, "God of Wealth," and the undeniable transfer records in the chat window.

Zhong Wan chuckled.

I was secretly happy for a while.

She then slowed her movements, gently removed his hand, and stood up.

She changed her clothes while keeping an eye on the bed as if she were doing something wrong.

The stench of money brought her pleasure.

Zhong Wan hummed a little tune as she washed up and cooked. After eating and drinking her fill, she leisurely settled down at the front desk and finished drawing the remaining hand-copied newspaper from yesterday.

Half a day has almost passed by in a blur of dawdling.

Looking at the rain outside the door, sometimes gentle, sometimes rapid,

Zhong Wan hesitated for a moment, but under the customer's urging, she still called a courier to pick up the handwritten newspaper.

Suddenly having so much free time made her feel quite uneasy.

Zhong Wan stared blankly at the rain outside the window, but in her mind she was having a casual chat with the system.

"System, will the unfinished task from yesterday still appear tonight?"

【uncertain. 】

Zhong Wan frowned slightly upon hearing this: "Then wouldn't I have wasted an opportunity?"

【Yes. 】

I'm losing so much money! ╰()╯

Zhong Wan scratched her head in frustration, then slumped against the front desk with a sigh: "Alright, when does the mission start today?"

[24 hours have passed since the last mission.]

"Oh dear, that means it won't be until after 8 PM?"

【Yes. 】

Zhong Wan felt utterly exhausted and loveless.

Her chin was resting on the counter, and she was unconsciously drawing with a pen.

My whole body relaxed.

Suddenly, she seemed to remember something.

Zhong Wan suddenly sat up, her voice slightly excited, and said, "System, that spell skill, can I draw talismans, paint, and write anything?"

[Spiritual Pact Mantra, yes.]

"Hehe, what about the materials? Can you provide some? I've got nothing else to do anyway, I'll practice a bit."

The system remained silent, but efficiently placed everything she needed into her drawer.

Zhong Wan, who was waiting for a system reply, caught a glimpse of a flickering light coming from the crack in the drawer out of the corner of her eye.

His face instantly lit up with a smile.

"System, you're awesome! o(￣▽￣)d good!"

Zhong Wan took everything out and put it on the table.

After selecting some pieces, he unfolded the yellow paper, picked up the cinnabar pen, and wrote the three characters "Possession Talisman" again with a serious expression.

Looking at the three neatly arranged characters on the yellow paper, and recalling the appearance of talismans in my memory,

Zhong Wan also felt increasingly awkward the more she looked at it.

"System, is this correct?"

【Can. 】

"Then why do I remember the words on those talismans being so intricate and mysterious?"

That might not necessarily work.

Upon hearing this, Zhong Wan immediately perked up: "Then what I wrote will be useful?"

[Completion rate: 10%]

Useful, but not abundant.

Zhong Wan clicked her tongue upon hearing this, and started preparing to change the paper.

Before I started writing this time, I couldn't help but take a deep breath, and then I tried my best to calm my mind and write.

"System, what about this time?"

[Completion rate: 7%]

Zhong Wan was unconvinced and changed the paper to continue.

What about this time?

[Completion rate: 5%]

Zhong Wan couldn't resist challenging it, and quickly changed the paper and continued.

She had just finished writing the last stroke when the system, without even letting her speak, announced the result: "Completion rate 2%."

"What the heck? I put so much effort into writing this, why is the completion rate getting lower and lower?"

Zhong Wan glared angrily at the few sheets of paper on the table and asked indignantly, "System, are you even capable of doing this?"

"How did you test this? Is it reliable?"

[Ding! Sensing the invasion of Yin energy, the amulet successfully triggered its effect, successfully resisting the attack.]
