"What's wrong?" Mr. Ex stopped at the dungeon entrance, peering slightly through the crack in the door, and asked the maid at the door what was going on.

The door was only slightly ajar; looking down, one could barely see Lin Yang's head.

Her messy hair looked like it was matted together, and there were still some remnants of yesterday's vomit on it.

Lin Yang, however, remained motionless, lying on the ground, her back to the door, neither awake nor asleep.

"Sir, Miss Lin is blocking the door, so I don't dare to push it open," the maid explained, bowing her head.

Mr. Ex gestured for the maid to move aside, making room for him to stand in the doorway, closer to Lin Yang.

"Why are you torturing yourself like this?" Mr. Ex looked down at her.

"..." Lin Yang remained silent.

“You are not from this world, and besides, don’t you want to finish your mission as soon as possible and go home? Why linger in a world that doesn’t belong to you?” Mr. Ex tried to push him in a little, but Lin Yang’s body was stuck there, and he couldn’t do anything about it.

Ex's words of advice finally roused Lin Yang. She opened her lips with difficulty, her lips peeling, and said, "The one who dragged me into this world for no reason, and the one I cherish, is you."

Lin Yang's voice was now very unpleasant, lacking its usual liveliness, and was extremely dry. When she opened her mouth, it sounded like an unpleasant crow raking its throat.

Mr. Ex frowned behind his mask and patiently persuaded her, "I had no choice. If I had a choice, I would never let you appear in this world again. Please believe me, okay? Everything I did was for your own good."

"Heh." Lin Yang gave a weak chuckle, her body trembling slightly. "All of this was for my own good? Arranging for me to kill Xu Chengzhi with my own hands, was that for my own good too? Deliberately choosing the wrong target for revenge, making me scheme against Xu Chengzhi like this, was that for my own good too? You're truly great, cough cough cough..."

Lin Yang was really too weak. After saying a few words, she became a little agitated and started coughing violently.

"Believe it or not, I have my reasons for doing all this. And Xu Chengzhi has to die too." Mr. Ex lowered his eyes, and even in this situation, he gritted his teeth and said the truth that would provoke Lin Yang's emotions.

"Must die? Hahahaha, what a fine 'must die'! In your eyes, is human life so cheap? You plotted to make me kill Xu Chengzhi with my own hands, to make me kill the person I love with my own hands, and you've been manipulating the system behind the scenes, making it issue those missions that harm Xu Chengzhi. You're truly treacherous, and you still want to wear the title of 'for my own good'? Let me tell you, I don't have that much influence to become your excuse for committing heinous crimes, cough cough cough..." Lin Yang's emotions became even more agitated because of Mr. Ex's words, and he coughed so hard that he almost coughed up his lungs. "Get out! Get out of here! I don't want to see you! Cough cough cough!"

At this moment, Lin Yang felt extremely repulsed by Mr. Ex, thinking that everything was caused by the person behind him.

"Then calm yourself down. I'll be leaving now." Seeing that she was coughing badly, Mr. Ex stopped saying anything that might upset her. He turned to the maid and whispered, "Keep a close eye on Miss Lin. If anything happens, you will be held responsible."

"Yes!" the maid replied, bowing her head.

The iron gate closed again, shutting out all outside disturbances.

"Cough cough cough..." Lin Yang clutched her aching chest and coughed weakly.

My temples hurt from coughing.

Suddenly everything went black again, and she thought she had fainted because she was too weak.

But then we found ourselves in the consciousness space again.

"Host, congratulations, you have completed your first revenge mission." The system's familiar voice rang out.

Lin Yang was puzzled.

Wasn't she always locked up in the dungeon? How did she suddenly complete the tasks assigned by the system?

Could it be that Ex is making decisions on his own...?

Lin Yang gritted her teeth angrily, and her suspicions quickly fell on Mr. Ex.

What exactly is he trying to do?
