Chapter 317

A pure white space.

"Yanzai, you're about to become a human, so you can't keep eating everything you see, or you'll be treated as an outcast, locked in a dark room, and dissected for research."

System 233 looked at the kitten that was gnawing on its own mechanical left hand and said helplessly, "Yanzai, stop gnawing."

"Hungry." The soft voice sounded like a baby who hadn't been weaned, which softened 233's heart. But this mechanical arm was like a kitten, leaving a deep dent with every bite, showing just how sharp its teeth were.

Xia Yan was a newly sentient little cat demon that it had contracted with. Its original form was a snow-white cat with a round and chubby body like a glutinous rice ball. However, it had a huge appetite and no dietary restrictions. It would eat anything it saw. After it had finished gnawing on all the basic equipment in the system space, it began to bite its original form.

Luckily, it's not human, so the bitten parts can grow back, and it doesn't feel any pain.

"Xiaxia, I am data. Everything here is data. You can't fill your stomach even if you eat it. Do you want to eat more? There is no shortage of food in this small world. As long as you do missions, you will have endless food."

Xia Yan raised her eyes upon hearing 233's words, her eyes sparkling. "Really?" She was born in a wasteland, her true form being a young Taotie. The wasteland had nothing but soil. Until she met 233, who mistook her for a cat demon, she was taken away.

She was wicked; she didn't tell 233 the truth.

Otherwise, 233 wouldn't want her anymore.

"Of course it's true. To make it easier for you to complete the mission, you need to take on a human form, and I've found an identity in each world that suits your mission requirements."

Xia Yan frowned when she heard that she had to be human, and pleaded softly, "Can I not be human?"

The original is so comfortable, but the person is so ugly, they don't even have any nice fur. If it gets cold, won't they freeze to death?

"No way." 233 refused without hesitation. This one is a different breed. How am I supposed to win it over? How am I supposed to complete the quests? How am I supposed to give the quest target 100% care and affection?

"Our mission is to correct the paranoid male supporting character's values, make him believe that truth, goodness and beauty exist in this world, reduce his destructive potential, prevent him from hanging himself on the female lead, and when necessary, use the ultimate weapon to give him a gentle and kind wife."

"Wife?" Xia Yan continued chewing on 233. "Having a wife completes the mission?"

System 233 thought for a moment, "Since the male supporting character has found a wife other than the female lead, he definitely won't be thinking about locking the female lead in the dark room anymore." He nodded, "Yes, that's it."

"I see."

Xia Yan nodded. Finding him a wife would complete the mission, which didn't sound too difficult!

"Time's almost up, so let's start the mission." The next second, a burst of white light entered the body of the sleeping girl on the bed.

Chapter Two: The Paranoid Painter (2)

Xia Yan opened her eyes, her eyeballs rolling around. She felt her body become extremely heavy, her head was dizzy, her legs ached, and her throat was very dry.

Moreover, the hunger pangs from her body made Xia Yan feel uncomfortable.

"Hungry~ 233 I'm hungry~ 233 I want to eat~ 233~~~"

233 transformed into a watch and placed it on Xia Yan's wrist. "Don't worry, we'll be able to eat soon, but let's talk about some precautions first."

I'm hungry~

"First, you can't reveal my existence, nor can you reveal that you're an outsider, otherwise we'll both be kicked out. Also, you can't eat anything other than human food, or this body won't be able to handle it and will die."

After all, Yan Zai eats everything, that won't do.

This is an illness; in human terms, it's called pica. Yan Zai probably eats anything that comes his way.

"Also, in order for you to better play the role of Xia Yan in this world, there will be fixed character maintenance tasks. The task in this world is to maintain the character of a nouveau riche who spends money like water. You are the epitome of a poor person who suddenly becomes rich. You need to spend enough money every day, otherwise you will be electrocuted. It hurts a lot, you know?"

What is money?

233 felt that if she explained to the kitten that money is a form of currency, an item that serves as a general equivalent, the kitten would probably be even more confused.

So he said directly, "The money can buy dried fish, it can buy countless dried fish, that's not important. Anyway, I will transfer the money to your card later, and you can spend as much as I tell you to."

"All right."

"Can I eat now?" Xia Yan instinctively wanted to bite into the thing covering her, but was stopped. "As I just said, you can only eat food that humans can eat. You can call the nanny now, and she will bring you something delicious."

The nanny, who was working outside, suddenly heard the young lady's voice and rushed over.

"Miss is awake? I'll go call Madam."

Then they disappeared in a flash.

Xia Yan, who was starving: How could this happen?

Seeing that its host was about to cry, 233 quickly comforted him, "Your mother will definitely give you something delicious when she comes."

A few minutes later, a young woman ran over and exclaimed before she even got close, "My darling! My sweetheart! You're finally awake! You scared your mother to death!"

Then he hugged Xia Yan and cried. Xia Yan felt like she was lying in a flower bed, and her nose was a little itchy.

"Hungry~" So can you please stop hugging me? I'm starving.

As soon as Qian Ruyin heard her daughter say she was hungry, she quickly told the nanny to get some food. "Baby is hungry. Bring me the bird's nest from the kitchen and make some of your favorite dishes."

The nanny went to the kitchen and soon brought the food back.

As soon as she entered the room, Xia Yan's eyes widened, her gaze fixed intently on the bowl in the nanny's hand.

Qian Ruyin said with a smile, "It seems that the baby is really hungry. Come on, let Mom feed you."

The nanny handed the bowl to Qian Ruyin, who then asked the nanny to help Xia Yan up. Qian Ruyin scooped a spoonful of bird's nest over to her, and Xia Yan immediately ate the whole spoonful in one gulp, which terrified the system.

"Yanzai, don't eat the spoon, you can only eat the food inside." 233 quickly stopped Xia Yan when she saw her about to swallow the spoon.

This was Xia Yan's first time eating human food. She was amazed that humans actually ate such delicious food. Her eyes instantly lit up with a sparkling light.

It's so good to be human.

Staring intently at the food in the bowl, Xia Yan didn't wait for Qian Ruyin to feed her before moving closer to the bowl and starting to gulp it down from Qian Ruyin's hand.

Qian Ruyin was stunned.

Xia Yan drank the bird's nest soup, then looked at the other bowls next to her and reached out to grab them, but Qian Ruyin quickly stopped her, "Baby, don't rush, these are all yours."

Is your baby starving?

This makes it seem like they haven't eaten in centuries, and they're not even using chopsticks, just their hands.

Is this still the image-conscious fairy in her family?

233 felt a wave of dizziness. Sure enough, it should have trained its host on dining etiquette first; this was simply outrageous.
