Chapter 146 The Movie Emperor's Little Cat Darling 30
It's quite troublesome to think about, but there's no other way.
In today's society, traces are left wherever you go. Taking Su Yao to a remote place would only make things more obvious after the incident. It would be better to just have a regular meeting in the city center.
Alas, in other worlds where the order is not yet fully stable, she wouldn't need to worry about these things at all.
Su Yao and Yun Zhen met at a private club. The environment was quiet and there was very little surveillance, with only a few cameras in the public areas.
Yun Zhen gave Su Yao a deep look.
"W-What's wrong?"
Su Yao smiled awkwardly, a hint of panic and guilt flashing involuntarily in her eyes.
Seeing this, Gu Huaiye felt a sense of suspicion and instinctively felt that something was wrong with this woman.
He gripped Yunzhen's hand tightly, becoming subtly wary.
Yunzhen shook her head. "It's nothing, I just think the environment here is quite nice."
"Really? I also think the environment here is very nice; I chose it intentionally."
Su Yao forced a laugh in agreement, her whole demeanor revealing her unease.
Yun Zhen shook her head inwardly. Hadn't they already made a decision? Why was she still so flustered and nervous?
The strategy system eyed Yun Zhen with covetous intent, and said impatiently:
[Host, let Gu Huaiye leave. After he leaves, I'll use the item on Yun Zhen. By then, her affection for you will be almost at its maximum, and you'll be able to win her over quickly.]
Su Yao was resolute, constantly telling herself: she was forced into this situation; she had no other choice but to do so for her own life.
"Yunzhen, I have something I want to say to you. Could you ask Teacher Gu to leave first?"
Gu Huaiye narrowed his eyes, staring intently at Su Yao with a sharp gaze.
"If you want to say it directly, then say that there are no secrets between Zhenzhen and me."
What does this woman want to do to Zhenzhen if she tries to get him away?
What on earth is she planning?!
In the background of the strategy system, Gu Huaiye's favorability was reduced by several hundred points again, but it was too lazy to announce it anymore, and Su Yao did not realize the trick.
Yun Zhen smiled and said, "Yes, we all know each other, there's no need to be so formal."
Originally, she didn't plan to keep Gu Huaiye at the scene, not wanting him to know too much, but since the strategy system wanted Gu Huaiye to leave, she decided not to let it have its way.
Let's figure out why it drove Gu Huaiye away first.
"Alright then..."
Meeting Yun Zhen's smiling face, Su Yao was dizzy and subconsciously about to agree when, at the crucial moment, the system shouted in her mind.
[Su Yao!]
Su Yao woke up with a start and quickly lowered her eyes, focusing her gaze on the table in front of her.
Yunzhen drawled out her words, coquettishly pouting, "Please? Let Huaiye stay. You know we're deeply in love and don't want to be apart."
These sticky words sounded a bit fake and pretentious, but they moved Gu Huaiye to tears.
He turned to look at Yun Zhen, his eyes filled with tenderness, with a hint of tears welling up.
Yunzhen uttered mushy words, but in reality, she had no romantic intentions whatsoever. She even tried to manipulate the favorability rating, deducting five points from it.
Make Su Yao understand that she is reluctant to separate from Gu Huaiye without a legitimate reason, and if she forcibly kicks Gu Huaiye out, she will lose even more favorability points.
On the other hand, it also forces her to cling to the system, making the system give her a reason to drive Gu Huaiye away. Otherwise, for the sake of this precarious goodwill, she will not persist any longer.
Su Yao indeed became anxious and hurriedly asked the system:
[System, why do you want Gu Huaiye to leave? Can't he stay?]
She remained skeptical of the so-called items from the system; every bit of favorability Yunzhen showed her was incredibly important and precious to her.
The strategy system grew increasingly impatient with Su Yao, but had no choice but to forcefully suppress its urgency and explain:
[Using items also consumes energy. I've already wasted too much energy trying to help you offset the penalty for failing to win over Gu Huaiye. Every additional person here adds to the energy drain. If the item fails to work, you'll have nowhere to turn for help.]
This was, of course, meant to deceive Su Yao. The truth was that it would appear later to communicate with Yun Zhen, but the existence of the system must not be known to anyone other than the host.
If noticed by the other indigenous people, especially those with great fortune favored by Heaven, they might attract the attention of the world's consciousness and be eliminated.
Even if it doesn't attract the attention of the world's consciousness, it is very likely to attract the attention of local forces, who will then capture the host it parasitizes for research.
Especially now that it has little energy left, it's barely able to conceal its presence, so it's even less willing to take the risk.
As for Su Yao, after binding with Yun Zhen, before completely leaving her, it will accept her soul.
It never imagined that Su Yao would reject it.
After all, its previous hosts all happily agreed to the binding, regarding it as a serendipitous encounter.
