"So you gave me the props because I'm in the novice protection period?"
[That’s right.]
"Am I still in the novice protection period?" Ji Xinghe asked tremblingly while sitting in the back seat of the luxury car that came to pick him up.
He didn't know how he got on the car without any resistance, because he was distracted communicating with the system. It was like someone did an experiment: if a person is on the phone, no matter what you give them, they will take it.
Then the seemingly kind old butler pushed him into the car while he was talking on the phone with the system.
[The novice protection period is 24 hours after the main mission begins. The host has passed the novice protection period.]
"I knew it..."
"One last question. Does this identity of mine really exist, or did you, the system, fabricate it out of thin air through some method I'm not aware of?"
After receiving the host's request, the system screened out traders who met the requirements and died on the same day. The traders agreed to trade with the system.
The transaction is as follows: the system takes away his identity and at the same time fulfills one of his wishes.
Seeing the system's answer, Ji Xinghe suddenly didn't know what to say. Finally, he said in a somewhat strange tone: "Tong'er, sometimes I feel that you might be the father I have never met."
Although this matter has now become a misunderstanding, after digesting the system's answer, Ji Xinghe inexplicably felt like he was being doted on by his biological father.
This feeling, inexplicably, isn't it bad?
[The system does not have reproductive functions, nor is it equipped with a love system.]
Summary: It is impossible for it to give birth to a son as old as Ji Xinghe.
"Pfft." Ji Xinghe couldn't help laughing. "Okay, okay, I get it. Interracial love won't work out."
Ji Xinghe's smile caused the old butler sitting in the passenger seat to turn his head and look back. Then he saw the second young master he had just met today, with a smile on his face and a very happy look.
The old housekeeper thought that he was like this because he had found his biological parents, and he couldn't help but feel a sense of pity in his heart.
Family members know their own family affairs. When he was at the police station, he heard people there talk about this child. This child had a miserable life, but he also had great expectations for his family.
Because according to regulations, the police could not tell others about Ji Xinghe's affairs without his consent. After calling Ji Xinghe, they said to the Ji couple in a complicated tone that this was a poor child, and a very simple child who longed for family warmth.
If they are really Ji Xinghe's parents, I hope they can treat Ji Xinghe well. He is too ignorant of this world.
The old butler, who had never heard Ji Xinghe's version of "The Canary of the Rich Boss", actually didn't quite understand what the female police officer with a look of pity meant by ignorance, but from their few words, he could feel that this should be a child who was loved by others.
Otherwise, how could so many people in the police station speak up for him after just a single encounter?
What a pity.
The old housekeeper sighed. The Ji family's situation was destined to not meet the child's expectations for a family.
I don’t know if such a simple child who shows his emotions on his face can adapt to life in the Ji family.
The Ji family, as well as the young masters and young ladies outside the master's family, are not easy to deal with.
However, it was not his turn as the butler to comment on these matters. Realizing what he was thinking, the old butler calmed down and stopped thinking about other things.
"System, you said that the real young master of the Ji family who you traded with is dead. How did he die?" No one spoke along the way. Ji Xinghe, who was a little carsick and couldn't play with his mobile phone in the car, was silent for a while, and then he pestered the system to start chatting again.
[Frozen to death.] The system's voice was cold and motionless.
"Frozen to death?" Ji Xinghe was a little bit unbelievable. In today's society, even children in orphanages rarely freeze to death. How could that person actually freeze to death?
"So what is his wish? Can you tell me?"
The system didn't think there was anything unspeakable. So it briefly recounted the transaction: [He wanted to be reborn, but I refused. Finally, his wish was to dream. In the dream, he wouldn't know he was dreaming, and he could get what he wanted.]
"Dream?" Ji Xinghe murmured in his heart. "Then is it possible that what I am doing now is just a dream? When I wake up from the dream, I still haven't been reborn and can't do anything."
[Dreams are divided into shallow and deep dreams. Dreams woven by the system are an exception, known as eternal dreams. To awaken someone in eternal dreams, the only way is through mental stimulation, namely electric shock. The system can provide awakening services for the host.]
Ji Xinghe, who refused to think about philosophy and literature only for a moment, twitched his lips and said, "No, no. I was just joking. System, why are you taking it so seriously?"
【oh. 】
For some reason, Ji Xinghe felt like he was being pranked. But he had no evidence.
In the end, Ji Xinghe decided to go to the Ji family. After all, after the system transformation, his current body was indeed the child of the Ji couple in everyone's cognition. It was quite a coincidence that they all had the same surname.
"Mr. Ji and Mrs. Ji, are they usually busy?"
Thinking of the couple who left in a hurry without even waiting for the paternity test report, Ji Xinghe asked.
To be honest, he didn't have a very good impression of these two people. When they looked at Ji Xinghe, Ji Xinghe always felt that there was a bit of scrutiny and condescension in their eyes.
It seemed as if they were evaluating whether Ji Xinghe was qualified to be their son. Before the paternity test came out, apart from the initial greeting, they hardly said a word to Ji Xinghe.
It was as if they were afraid that if the test results came out and Ji Xinghe had no blood relationship with them, he would stick to them.
Although they always had smiles on their faces and looked very approachable, Ji Xinghe, who had seen many people like them since childhood in an orphanage, could see the arrogance hidden under their smiles at a glance.
In the past, Ji Xinghe would avoid such people whenever possible.
As if afraid that Ji Xinghe might have some grudges about what just happened, the old housekeeper seemed not to hear the young man behind him addressing his biological parents in a strange way, and began to explain: "There was a sudden problem at the company, and the master must go over to deal with it. As for the mistress..."
The old housekeeper glanced back at Ji Xinghe and continued, "The eldest lady has something very important to deal with."
After that, he explained, "After receiving the call, the master and the mistress were very happy to find the second young master, and they specifically told me to take good care of him. Second young master, you can call me Butler Feng, or Uncle Feng."
Ji Xinghe had no ill feelings towards the old man in front of him, so he nodded and said, "Uncle Feng, can I go back after I finish my meal?"
"Go back?" Butler Feng was momentarily unresponsive, then spoke with a hint of surprise, "Second Young Master, are you talking about the house you rented? How could the Ji family allow you to continue living there? Now that you're back, it's natural for you to live with the Master and the Mistress, the Eldest Miss, and the Young Master at the Ji family."
Ji Xinghe didn't know how to refute this and chose to keep quiet.
Next, Butler Feng took Ji Xinghe to buy some clothes and daily necessities, and also took Ji Xinghe to the club to get a hairstyle.
Ji Xinghe actually understood the old butler's good intentions.
Isn't it because they are afraid that he is a child who has never seen anything, lives a hard life, and wears shabby clothes. If he is not packaged up, he will suddenly step into a world that is incompatible with him, just like a little beggar who accidentally entered a noble banquet, and his self-esteem will be hurt.
Two hours later
Faced with several stylists coming from all directions trying to strip him naked from head to toe, Ji Xinghe was deeply moved and chose to refuse. He vowed to defend his face to the death and would not let those people touch his mask in the slightest.
"Mr. Ji won't let us touch him." Inside the club, the stylist said helplessly to the old butler who was sitting on the sofa waiting.
Butler Feng frowned, stood up and went into the room with the visitor.
Before I even entered, I heard the child yelling, "I'm telling you, don't touch me. My mask and I live and die together. You'll regret it if you take it off! And don't take off my clothes! I'll put them on myself, and you all get out!"
The old butler pushed the door open and walked in. As soon as he entered the room, he saw Ji Xinghe standing out from the crowd. He stood on a chair and looked down at everyone, refusing to let anyone touch him no matter what.
This made the stylists around who were used to seeing rich people feel both amused and helpless.
Those who know know that they are styling the young master, while those who don’t think they are doing something bad.
The old butler raised his eyebrows and silently removed the shy label that he had attached to Ji Xinghe.
Quite naughty.
The author has something to say: The main attack has been decided, it is confirmed to be the system. The system will have an identity later.
The main reason is that Xiao Xingxing's appearance is too flawed. I can't imagine that any normal person could resist the temptation. However, if in life, your partner is attracted to you and devoted to you just because of your appearance, but can't see the shining points of your personality, it is also quite sad.
So it's settled, the top is the system. From now on, he can help Little Star kick those perverts.
Very good, very good.
