Bai Xiaofei slept in the room for nearly an afternoon.
When I woke up, it was already dark outside.
He frowned and looked around, then turned his back and looked out the window.
Seeing that there was no one in the room, Bai Xiaofei started muttering to himself.
[Book God! What on earth is going on? How come after you took over my body, I have no memory at all? ]
The God of Books smiled gently.
[That's because your small body can't hold too much of my spiritual power! Anyway, you're fine, just take a good rest for a while, but I've used up too much spiritual power this time, so I may not be able to do it again. When the time comes, I will hand over the power to the system, and it will help you collect the recovery value.]
After the Book God said this, he did not say anything else.
Bai Xiaofei didn't know yet that because the Book God's soul was parasitic on his body, it was not only Bai Xiaofei's spiritual power that was consumed, but also the Book God's.
Once the Book God operates improperly, everything will be reduced to ashes.
That situation is really hard to imagine.
So now, there is a very important reason why he no longer actively controls Bai Xiaofei -
It was also because he now had more important things that needed Bai Xiaofei to do. If he were to be wiped out because of such a small reason, it would be a waste of his efforts in parasitizing Bai Xiaofei.
Taking a break now is also a way to adjust my state of mind.
Bai Xiaofei nodded, then stretched his muscles and called out to the system in his heart.
[System! In this situation, how can I continue to gain recovery points? ]
[Host, please wait! The system is receiving everything that has happened to the host's body recently! Once the task is discovered, it will be mentioned to the host. Please don't panic! ]
That's fine!
Bai Xiaofei didn't say anything more. After making sure that there was no other problem with his body, he stood up and walked out.
At the same time, Ximen Mako was walking towards them.
After recovering his spiritual power, Ximen Mako's entire condition was obviously different.
Her little face was flushed red, and the moment she saw Bai Xiaofei's door open, she immediately raised her hands and waved wildly with joy.
"Mr. Bai! You are finally awake. If you hadn't woken up, I would have thought that something had taken away your soul."
"ah?"
Ximen Zhenzi's words made Bai Xiaofei suddenly freeze in place. He looked up in confusion.
Have they discovered that something is wrong with them?
Bai Xiaofei swallowed nervously.
"What do you mean?"
Just as he was about to speak, he heard Ximen Zhenzi waving his hands and laughing, "It's okay, it's okay. I just heard from the Great Elder that your state was very different when you released Linhe. The Great Elder even complained that maybe... there were other souls in your body, because your expression was really different at that time!"
"But I don't think that's the case. How could you be possessed when you're so powerful?"
Ximen Mako stared at Bai Xiaofei with the eyes of a little fangirl.
Bai Xiaofei looked away guiltily.
Just at this moment, Zhang Xiaoxiao called via video.
Bai Xiaofei took a quick look and picked up the phone immediately.
At the same time, Ximen Mako's face was also revealed in the video.
"Hey! Miss Zhang, how's your filming going? If you plan to come back, you can tell me and I can ask the driver at home to pick you up."
"I have already told the Great Elder that everything you said to me, the Great Elder respects you, so he asked me to listen to you carefully."
Ximen Mako smiled and nodded, then looked at Bai Xiaofei next to him with a serious look.
"Xiao Fei, Yan Zi told me the results of their investigation. I will go back after I finish filming my scenes in two days! They found out that there may be other reasons for Zhao Ming's death, and it was definitely not suicide. There was a third party at the scene at the time. But he was not sure whether his suspicion was true or false, so he told me..."
"Captain Yan means... that third party might be the same as us?"
Zhang Xiaoxiao in the video nodded.
"Besides, she is the only one in the entire police station whose spiritual energy has been revived, so..."
Zhang Xiaoxiao's expression was particularly serious and solemn, and she didn't dare to speak carelessly.
You can only tell your thoughts truthfully after thinking for a moment.
"She was the only one who felt that the scene gave her the feeling that it was evil. Of course, I didn't dare to think too much. I could only ask her to protect the scene with all her strength. Then when we go to the scene, we can also follow the current situation to find out who that person is, so..."
Bai Xiaofei instantly understood what Zhang Xiaoxiao meant and nodded, "I understand. Then do as you say. I will cooperate with you then."
Zhang Xiaoxiao nodded.
The video call was hung up, and Ximen Mako, who was standing next to him, looked a little at a loss.
The smile on Bai Xiaofei's face had not yet faded, but when he turned around, he was met with Ximen Zhenzi's somewhat sad expression.
"What's wrong with you?"
"Mr. Bai, Miss Zhang doesn't want to chat with me. Is it because you told people outside about our relationship that she is unhappy?"
Ximen Mako naturally knew that she looked a little awkward now, but this was also her true feelings in her heart.
She wanted to be friends with someone she liked, why was it so difficult?
And in the future, the three of them may have to live under the same roof.
Bai Xiaofei just came back to his senses when he saw Ximen Zhenzi's melancholy look. He instantly felt something was wrong and immediately said, "Don't think too much. Xiaoxiao may not mean that. He ignored you because... he just didn't notice you. I'll tell him in person next time I have a chance!"
Ximen Mako didn't say anything, just looked at him, and after a moment, she put on a smile and left the room silently.
Bai Xiaofei also felt helpless. He had no way to control Zhang Xiaoxiao's emotions towards her. He could only say that since Zhang Xiaoxiao herself had proposed the system of three wives and four concubines...
Ximen Mako could only bear it.
Otherwise, she would get all the benefits, which would be really unfair to Zhang Xiaoxiao.
And if it is true that love comes first, then Ximen Mako is the one who comes later, not the one who comes first.
Bai Xiaofei shook his head.
—
Two days passed in the blink of an eye.
Under Ximen Mako's arrangement, Zhang Xiaoxiao was picked up as soon as she left the crew.
She went all the way back to the Simon family.
As soon as she got off the car, she saw Ximen Mako, with a slightly bulging belly, waving at her with open arms.
Zhang Xiaoxiao inexplicably felt that the belly was really eye-catching, and even felt a little regretful. She regretted why she agreed to Ximen Zhenzi.
But after all, we have known each other for so long, it is impossible for me to just stand by and watch him die, right?
Zhang Xiaoxiao exhaled a breath, forced a smile, and walked towards Bai Xiaofei.
But before he could say hello to Bai Xiaofei, the person who came towards him was the amiable Ximen Zhenzi.
"Ms. Zhang, welcome home."
