Chapter 3 turns out to be a subsystem...



"The main system from back then has been given away by Xiao Yan, who is obsessed with love, and my points have been reset to zero."

"Later they turned against each other. In order to evade the main system's tracking, I also turned off the built-in Fetion communication channel. As for where the main system is, you can guess without me telling you, right?"

Xiao Zhixing smiled and touched the tip of his tongue to his cheek.

As expected, she wouldn't get her goal so easily; no wonder this thing is so weak.

"Okay, so what are your plans for the future? We're on someone else's turf now, and we could be discovered at any time."

She suppressed her anger and examined the mass of things in her mind, weighing and quantifying it.

Since its answer was fairly honest and roughly the same as the information I scanned, should I leave it alone for now?

Should we lock them up first? Maybe they'll be useful later?

The 186-point system, completely unaware that its host intended to dismantle it, resigned itself to its fate, saying:

"I don't know what to do either, but Xiao Yan has arranged the way for you."

"Once you're in Shengjing, you're Xiao Yuanshan's daughter. If the main system discovers and devours me, your survival will be entirely up to fate."

At this moment, Xue Mei came in to check as usual, and Xiao Zhixing stopped communicating with the system and closed his eyes to sleep.

"Dao Zhan" has been quietly launched.

The system made two crackling sounds at score 186:

"Oh dear, what's going on? I'm going to sleep for a while again. Take care of yourself, host. Hmm? That's strange, why is my energy level sometimes low and sometimes high? It was full just now!"

After muttering to itself, it went into hibernation.

Xiao Zhixing thought to himself, "This system is so stupid, I'll keep it for now. Who knows, it might be useful when I face the main system later."

She continued practicing the exercises, roughly made plans for the future, and then instantly fell into a deep sleep.

The next morning, she woke up as soon as the maids in the outer room moved.

After washing up early in the morning, I practiced boxing in the yard.

The original owner had been back in the manor for less than a year, so these changes did not surprise the maids.

They probably thought she was pretending to be weak to take advantage of others.

This time, Qi Mengshu forced him to reveal his abilities in order to protect himself.

Hongmei served her with a look of satisfaction, while Xuemei reported the latest news from the West Courtyard:

"He caught a cold over there, had a fever in the middle of the night, and was up all night. He only calmed down this morning. Serves him right!"

Xiao Zhixing ate his meal on time, nodded to indicate that he understood, and looked at Hongmei, "When will Steward Xiao arrive? Do I have to go and invite him personally?"

It's almost 8 o'clock now.

Xuemei stammered, "The head steward... was busy with the commotion in the west courtyard last night..."

Hongmei, afraid that she would be angry, quickly said:

"Steward Luo is already waiting outside, ready to obey the princess's orders at any time."

I understand. The head steward is so busy with that that he's planning to neglect things here.

Xiao Zhixing's expression remained unchanged as he pondered:

“Hongmei, I remember when Father left, he told me to use the guards in the manor. Also, your parents and your father are old men who followed him.”

The two looked at each other. Was the princess finally ready to see everyone?

Hongmei hurriedly replied, "Yes, Princess, we were all personally arranged for you by the Prince. My father is Xiao Bei, the leader of the guards, and my mother is in charge of purchasing in the main kitchen."

Xuemei's voice was clear and cheerful, "My father is the second steward, and my mother is in charge of purchasing for the servants in the mansion and the storeroom in your courtyard."

The original owner's life was truly baffling.

These are some key figures, yet they didn't even think of getting close to them.

These people were clearly helpers specially arranged by Xiao Yuanshan to prevent her from being mistreated upon returning to the mansion.

After Xiao Zhixing finished his meal, he was about to meet with the second steward, Luo Ercai, when Qingzhu rushed in to report:

"It's terrible, Princess! Madam Meng is coming this way with her people, and they look very aggressive."

Xiao Zhixing looked at his bangs combed back, revealing his true appearance. The face in the bronze mirror resembled his real appearance by about 90%.

She tossed her simple high ponytail, which was tied with a jade crown, and paired it with a black and red outfit. She nodded in satisfaction before walking out with her hands behind her back at a leisurely pace.
