"Mom, brother!" After leaving the operating room, Ming Jiayi secretly took off her mask, sunglasses, hat, and scarf and threw them into the trash can. Then she ran to the door of the operating room.
Unexpectedly, it happened just as Ming's father was being pushed out.
"Where did you go?" Ming Fengche asked, frowning.
“I…I…” Ming Jiayi raised her eyebrows, then put on a particularly sad expression and said in a wronged tone, “I was scared, so I stayed at the entrance of another operating room.”
"where?"
“It’s right behind there… a small passage…” Ming Jiayi had a bitter face, like a little sister who had just been bullied and hadn’t fully emerged from the shadows yet.
"Alright, alright, you two siblings, stop talking and come over here to help push your dad to the ICU ward."
“Okay.” Ming Jiayi and Ming Fengche followed, gently applying force with their hands that were supporting the bed.
[Hi~ Little cutie, hello there! I'm Xiaoru, the system customer service representative who's both beautiful and intelligent.]
The system's cute and sweet loli voice suddenly rang in Ming Jiayi's mind, causing her to noticeably pause in pushing the bed.
Ming Jiayi: "Why are you online in the middle of the night?"
[Host, my little darling, your father Ming Yiran's surgery is complete, so can you put this matter behind you now? Your mission progress has been severely delayed. If it continues at this pace, the time it takes for me to return to the real world will be extended.]
"What do you mean? Extension?"
Yes, if you were a little slow to complete the first level, but were able to catch up later, then there's no problem.
However, if you consistently complete tasks at this pace, the system will consider you to be slacking off. The consequence of slacking off is that your return time will be reduced.
Ming Jiayi twitched her lips. "So, you mean I could have gone back to ten minutes before the surgery failed, but because of my slacking off, I can only go back to nine minutes before the surgery failed?"
[Bingo! You're right, little cutie! That's exactly what it means. But 9 minutes is impossible, we always take half and half!]
The system's voice became cheerful, making the already somewhat shrill loli voice sound a bit "harsh".
Ming Jiayi tightened her other free hand, suddenly feeling a strong urge to beat up the system customer service.
Knowing that her time was going to be cut, the system's customer service was actually quite happy!
Five minutes!?
Yes, if our little cutie is repeatedly penalized for slacking off, the first time it will be 5 minutes left, the second time 2.5 minutes, the third time 1.25 minutes, and so on.
Ming Jiayi puffed out her cheeks, then rubbed her forehead, feeling a little tired.
What are the criteria for determining passive resistance to work?
There are no standards; the system can make a judgment as it sees fit.
Ming Jiayi: "!!!" This is outrageous! Is this system a child?! So capricious!
[Don't be angry, little cutie~ Getting angry will make you old and ugly. By the way, host, you only have seven days left to complete your first mission, so keep it up!]
"Didn't they say there were no standards?! Why are there only seven days left?! Could this be a random number too?!" Ming Jiayi shouted in her mind, almost exploding her brain.
But Xiaoru didn't reply to her again.
It seems to have disappeared again...
