Xiao Ling: [Okay, please wait for the system notification. Also, your assets have exceeded 10 billion!]

Qiao Zhen: [Very good, please keep up the good work.]

After leaving the coffee shop, Qi Ze instructed his subordinates to continue investigating Qiao Zhen's identity. However, the investigation remained a complete blank; she seemed to appear suddenly, then disappear just as suddenly, and then reappear again.

Qiao Zhen went back to play a game. [Xiao Ling, I'm taking my phone with me from this world.]

Xiao Ling: [Okay.]

Qiao Zhen bought a 256GB memory card and downloaded a lot of games, such as Honor of Kings, PUBG, and Dou Dizhu.

Qiao Zhen: [I also need headphones.]

Xiao Ling: [Okay.]

Qiao Zhen: [There's still endless traffic.]

Xiao Ling: [Okay.]

Qiao Zhen: [...Why are you suddenly being so agreeable? Do you have ulterior motives towards me?]

Xiao Ling: [We're about to part ways, so let me leave you a little something as a memento. Don't forget me in the future. You were my first host, and if you forget me too, there will be no evidence that I ever existed in this world.]

Qiao Zhen wanted to offer some words of comfort, but realized that Xiao Ling was just data; it wasn't even a life form, and Tai Bai wouldn't show them any mercy.

Qiao Zhen: [After this world ends, I'll plead for you.]

Xiao Ling: 【(?˙▽˙?) Really?! ...

Qiao Zhen: [Really.]

Xiao Ling suddenly looked disappointed again: "[Let's not do it. What the main system wants to do is definitely not good for you. You'll regret pleading for us.]"

Qiao Zhen just laughed: [Stupid system, really stupid.]

Xiao Ling couldn't understand Qiao Zhen's words, and both she and the system remained silent.

Qiao Zhen could more or less guess what the main system behind Xiao Ling was planning.

They didn't make her harm the target; instead, each task made the target love her. It can be basically concluded that their purpose was related to emotions.

Of all the seven emotions and six desires, love is the hardest to give up.

They intended to set an insurmountable barrier for the task's target, but they underestimated Qiao Zhen's ruthlessness.

Qiao Zhen went back to the apartment to cook for Qi Yijuan. Today's dish was bibimbap. On her way, she saw a chili sauce shop and bought several jars of chili sauce, including sweet and spicy, sour and spicy, and numbing and spicy.

The atmosphere in Qi Yijuan's office was tense; those old bastards wanted to force him to step down. He still had his people, and their combined shareholding was only thirty-six percent.

Those who wanted him to pack his things and leave, however, owned 47 percent of the shares.

The remaining 17% are with the anonymous directors. Qi Yijuan's top priority is to find out who the anonymous directors are and to win them over.

However, nothing could be found; neither private investigators nor cyber hackers could uncover any trace of it.

Qiao Zhen brought bibimbap to the company to deliver lunch to Qi Yijuan. Everyone in the company knew her, so no one dared to stop her. She simply pushed open the office door.

Right in front of you is a pen holder rolling on the ground.

"Get out if you can't find anything!"

Qiao Zhen: "???"

Qi Yijuan sensed something was wrong. He looked up instantly and, upon seeing Qiao Zhen, immediately changed his expression, smiling gently, "Why didn't you say you were coming?" He walked to the pen holder and kicked it away, "Didn't it hit you just now?"

Qiao Zhen placed the insulated lunchbox on his desk. "Lunch is ready. What was that tantrum about?"

Qi Yijuan hugged Qiao Zhen's waist like a wronged child, "Zhenzhen, if I go bankrupt, will you still be with me?"

His arms around Qiao Zhen's waist tightened slightly.

Qiao Zhen immediately shoved Qi Yijuan's arm away, "Pah! You have no money and you want me to stay with you? Keep dreaming. Let's discuss when to get a divorce."

Qi Yijuan, however, frantically clung to Qiao Zhen, the grown man wrapping his legs around the waist of the frail woman, his arms tightly around her neck, and resting his head on hers. "No, I want to cling to you. I have no money and nowhere to live. You have to take care of me."

Qiao Zhen, supporting Qi Yijuan's buttocks, laughed out loud, "Wow, I just said all that, and you're not angry at all?"

Qi Yijuan snorted, "I'm not going to be angry. I'm still young. Someone as good-looking as me would still chase after me even if I didn't have money!"

Qiao Zhen readily agreed, "Yes, yes, you understand perfectly. That's rare. Here, have a reward." She looked up and gave Qi Yijuan a very loud kiss on the chin.

She looked at the red lipstick mark on Qi Yijuan's chin, her eyes crinkling with delight, in a very good mood.

Qi Yijuan was also pleased to see her bright smile. "I want to eat."

Qiao Zhen put him on the sofa, went into the bathroom to remove her lip makeup, and then came out to feed him.

It's the kind where you eat it spoonful after spoonful.

Qi Yijuan was happy to enjoy it. He leaned his head on Qiao Zhen's shoulder and said matter-of-factly, "I don't care, you have to keep spoiling me like this!"

Qiao Zhen fed him another spoonful, "Okay, I'll always be this good to you, only to you."

There was an ambiguous relationship between them; a single glance was enough to spark a connection.

A full stomach makes one think of food.

Qi Yijuan looked intently at Qiao Zhen's red lips, leaned in and kissed them, then stuck out his tongue and licked them. "This sauce is really delicious."

Qiao Zhen pushed him away, "You big idiot, hurry up and play a match with me. Humph, I was just practicing a monkey, and I ended up arguing with that trash for the whole game."

Qi Yijuan couldn't help but laugh, "Call me husband, and I'll play King of Glory with you every day from now on."

Qiao Zhen leaned softly against Qi Yijuan, "Oh, honey~ you're willing to let me get scolded? I'm so pitiful."
