After waiting for a week, Leng Yue still hadn't seen the show she wanted to watch. Yu Shao Chen also suddenly disappeared from her life, leaving Leng Yue feeling quite regretful.
Despite her regret, Leng Yue didn't have much energy to dwell on it. She was busy participating in a biological research project at school, conducting experiments with Professor Li, who taught them microbiology.
Leng Yue was only a junior and wouldn't normally be qualified to join the project team. However, Professor Li admired her for her outstanding professional skills and qualities and made an exception for her. Although she was only a regular lab assistant, it was still a rare honor.
Huang Shaohu was stunned, staring blankly at Leng Yue: "Didn't you say you didn't like experiments? How come you've become an experiment fanatic now?"
Leng Yue laughed, "Child, you're still too naive. Don't you know that I'm all about loving what I do? I'm a professional when it comes to studying. If I'm going to do something, I'll do it to the best of my ability. Understand?"
Huang Shaohu was completely fooled by Leng Yue and nodded dumbly, "I never expected you to be such a serious girl!"
"Yes, you should study hard too, and don't let down the major you foolishly chose back then," Leng Yue said earnestly, sounding like someone who had been through it all.
As Huang Shaohu fell into deep thought, Leng Yue knew she had successfully fooled him. At this point, she certainly couldn't say, "Oh dear, I forgot my original intention, but then I remembered and resolved to work hard." People would think she was crazy! But now that she had thrown out the topic, wasn't it a perfect ending?
Before Leng Yue could even gloat, Huang Shaohu spoke up, "Back then, I wanted to study computer science, but the school wouldn't accept me. I was transferred here."
Leng Yue glanced at Huang Shaohu, "Take care! I'm going to chase my dreams now!" Then, humming "We're different, different..." she left with an air of indifference.
Because experiments always involve observation and recording, Leng Yue is always very busy, so busy that she neglects to eat and sleep, and has no time to spend with Qian Chen. Therefore, Leng Yue's previous idea of watching a play was just a thought; not only is there no play to watch now, but even if there were, she wouldn't have time to watch it!
With Leng Yue like this, Ling had to do the tasks alone. She was so angry that she complained to Qian Chen, "Is there any host like this? How can she make me, the system, do her own tasks? She's really shameless!"
Qianchen was also helpless. Looking at the wall clock, the broken hand pointing to 9, he sighed, "Don't even mention it. Look at her, a junior in college, she's busier than me, the general manager! She can't even come home for meals, and I never see her on dates. Isn't she afraid I'll run off with someone else!"
"What? You're going to run away? That won't do!" Ling stopped complaining. "You can't dump Yueyue. If anyone's going to break up, it'll be Yueyue dumping you!"
Qian Chen's face darkened: "What kind of logic is this? Only your host can dump me, but I can't dump him? You're too domineering!"
"Be domineering if you want, but you can't let Yueyue be sad!" Unlike before, Ling actually withstood the pressure and refused to give an inch to Qianchen.
"You can't just touch Yueyue's heartstrings and then irresponsibly leave? That's wrong, that's scumbag behavior, you know?" Ling said very seriously. "Yueyue is a very insecure child, you can't hurt her like this. If you dare to do anything to betray her, I... I will definitely fight you to the death!"
Qianchen didn't expect that her casual remark would elicit such a strong reaction from Lingqi. After a moment of silence, she solemnly assured him, "Don't worry, since I said I would be her support, I won't go back on my word."
Zero was still uneasy. "Really? You really won't go back on your word?"
Qian Chen smiled too. He had always thought that the host and the system could only have a relationship of mutual benefit, but now he saw that they could also become friends. "Don't worry, even the best marriages have their disagreements, and even the closest lovers can't be together all the time. Only those who can withstand these tests and stay together can become the most perfect couple. I've known this for a long time, and I will try my best to do so. I was just joking with you just now, don't take it seriously."
There was no dissatisfaction. "You can't make jokes, because if you make too many, they'll become real."
Qianchen laughed again, "You're like an old scholar, not cute at all."
“I’m serious. There’s a saying that ‘a small theft leads to a great one,’ meaning all bad things accumulate from small beginnings,” Zero said earnestly. “If you’re thinking of making a joke like that now, it means you’ve already had that thought in your mind. It might not be very obvious, but it will grow stronger over time. And eventually, you’ll actually do it!”
Qian Chan chuckled again, but still earnestly stated, "Don't worry, I'll be more careful in the future. Actually, I'm happy that Yueyue has things she wants to do. It's good for people like us that she's willing to try new things."
Always traveling, always drifting without a fixed abode, the human soul easily becomes weary. But if, like Leng Yue, one can find new things to like and try in different worlds, that is wonderful.
Of course, Qianchen, like Lengyue, still has many things to try and learn. But what will he do when they become so powerful that they no longer need to learn any skills?
“But this mission can’t be left unfinished forever!” Zero returned to the original question. “I’m the one who’s watching the target in her place, but she can’t just do nothing. What if, what if headquarters finds out? They’ll definitely deduct her work hours!”
"Work hours? Isn't this time supposed to be the original owner's lifelong replacement?" Qianchen asked, puzzled.
Zero was a little irritated. "In principle, that's correct, but... but isn't headquarters still undergoing rectification recently? Many regulations have been changed again. Now we're just waiting for the final ruling! But, it's precisely in times like these that we need to be extra careful!"
Qianchen nodded in agreement, "That's certainly how it should be."
"You can talk to Yueyue. Once you tell her, she'll understand the seriousness of the matter and will take action." Qianchen knew that Leng Yue wasn't the kind of person who acted without considering the consequences.
"Actually... I can understand Yueyue." Ling hesitated for a moment. "This matter is a bit troublesome. The other party has suddenly stopped doing anything, and we don't know where to start!"
"So you've run into trouble," Qianchen said, understanding immediately. "With a hacker like you, who's practically invincible, how could you not be able to handle things? Honestly, you have resources but don't even know how to use them!"
Ling Shun climbed up the pole, "How do I do this? What should I do? Please enlighten me, sir!"
Qianchen didn't hold back and analyzed it with Ling step by step, "First do this... then do this... and finally, do this again... understand?"
Zero nodded repeatedly, constantly flattering Qian Chen, "Boss, it's a shame you're not doing missions!"
Qianchen smiled, "Can I still spend as much time with Yueyue as I do now while I'm on missions?"
"No, in principle, mission takers cannot come from the same world," Zero replied.
"Never mind then, I'm just suited to this kind of carefree life!" Qianchen said, stretching. "Alright, it's ten o'clock, time to pick up my wife!"
