Chapter 312 Unknown System

Yu Zhuo secretly paid attention to Zhi Lan's expression. Zhi Lan rarely showed any expression on his face. Most of the time, he had a faint smile on his face that was hard to spot, as if he was wearing a mask.

"Take a rest and have dinner. I made a medicinal soup for you." Zhi Lan looked at Yu Zhuo with empty eyes. "You are not very old, and I don't know what you like, so I put some sugar in it. I hope you like it."

Yuzhuo lay motionless on the bed. He looked at Zhilan for a while, then shifted his gaze to the door.

The dark, silvery system has disappeared.

Yu Zhuo lowered his eyelashes and said, "Okay."

After speaking a few words to Yu Zhuo, Zhi Lan did not stop. He stood up and walked forward slowly. The robe was wide, and the dragon tail behind him made a rustling sound when he walked.

"I haven't asked you yet, what's your name?" He suddenly stopped at the door and turned his head.

Yu Zhuo was silent for a moment: "Backwards."

This was the name the main system gave him when he was first born.

"…Suhui?" Zhi Lan was a little surprised. He tilted his eyes and said, "What a coincidence. I have a friend with the same name."

"Really? That's quite a coincidence." Yu Zhuo deliberately added a hint of surprise in his tone, "What does he look like? Can I get to know him?"

"He won't like you. He's a bad-tempered guy." Zhi Lan's face showed some helplessness. "Forget it... Let's not talk about him. You should get some rest early."

After he finished speaking, he closed the door and left Yuzhuo alone inside.

【Why do you want to take him in? 】

Just as Xi Lan turned around and walked downstairs, the silver system hiding in the corner quietly floated to his side. The mechanical voice was calm, as if it was just a routine question.

Zhi Lan had anticipated this situation. He touched the handrail of the stairs beside him and walked slowly and carefully step by step.

"He's injured, what's wrong with me taking him in?" Zhi Lan said, "Besides, he's also a dragon, I can't just ignore him."

【snort.】

The silver system snorted coldly.

【Then why do you say bad things about me? 】

Zhi Lan frowned slightly, as if wondering: "When did I say anything bad about you?"

[I heard you said I had a bad temper and didn't let him play with me.]

"Oh...you were still eavesdropping?"

【……】

The smile on Zhi Lan's face deepened a little, and he stretched out his hand in the direction of the sound. Seeing this, the silver system paused and dodged his palm so that he would not touch it.

Zhi Lan stopped walking, holding the handrail of the stairs with one hand, and the other hand was still hanging empty in the air.

"Look, you won't even let me touch you, and you still say you're easy to get along with?"

The silver system floated in the air. He held the data card on his body tightly and watched Zhi Lan continue to speak.

[I said it a long time ago, I am different from you, I am not a dragon. ]

【Please keep your distance from me. 】

Zhi Lan pretended not to hear anything. He held out his hand, and continued to hold it in the air in the same position as before: "Touch it."

The silver system remained unmoved.

"Come on, touch it."

After a brief silence of a minute or two, the silver system adjusted and finalized its programming settings.

Its original shape was just a small sphere, with a cold and hard mechanical appearance. After the program was finalized, it was surrounded by a layer of soft light, with a yellowish ripple.

It raised the ball, glanced at Zhi Lan, and then floated into his hands.

[If you were not my host, I would never agree to your rude request. ]

It said reluctantly.

Zhi Lan kneaded the surface of the silver system with his five fingers. The touch of his palm was delicate and pleasant. It felt like the soft body of some harmless little animal.

"I want to touch you because I like you." Zhi Lan rubbed the silver system and held it in his arms, "You are like a little sun, so warm..."

The silver system shuddered and said nothing.

He just quietly relaxed his body and adjusted the softness of his body.

"Are all your systems like this?" Xi Lan continued to walk down the stairs. He rubbed the head of the silver system with his fingertips and asked casually.

The system slightly lifts the ball.

【What are they like? 】

"Pretentious."

Silver Ball snorted and continued to lie in his arms.

【Then don’t touch me. 】

"I was just kidding you." Zhi Lan looked ahead and smiled slightly, "But you never seemed to tell me...what kind of system you are and what you are doing here."

The light of the silver system gradually dimmed.

[…You want to know? ]

"There's no way I can know since you don't want to tell me." Zhi Lan sighed.

The silver system stopped in Zhi Lan's arms. He held it, and the light on its body flickered.

【I……】

"I see. You are a companion system." Zhi Lan suddenly said, "You feel sorry for me because I am always alone, so you come here to accompany me."

The silver system was hesitant to speak. When it heard Zhi Lan's words, it immediately became unpleasant.

[I'm not pitying you, I have other tasks to do! ]

Zhi Lan smiled: "For example?"

[For example, if I want to collect...I, I won't tell you! ]

The silver system suddenly became angry, breaking free from Zhi Lan's embrace and suddenly flying into the sky. The data on it swirled around in a mess, silently revealing something unusual.

Xi Lan raised her head and turned her pupils towards the direction of the silver system based on her feeling.

But it had already flown out of the window.

Xi Lan frowned slightly. This seemed to be a forbidden area between them. As long as anything related to the system was mentioned, the silver ball would be stimulated and run away quickly.

Zhi Lan walked down again, his steps unchanged, and it took him nearly four or five minutes to reach the first floor of the castle.

He walked to the dining table. The red tablecloth at the bottom was worn and had many cracks. Xi Lan took the plates of cakes to the side and put some soup in a small bowl on the chair next to him.

"You've been following me for a long time. Come and eat with me." Zhi Lan said, and sat down on a chair on the other side.

A few seconds later, Yu Zhuo walked out from the corner of the stairs. He touched the tip of his nose, and walked to the dining table while observing Zhi Lan's expression.

"Please." Zhi Lan simply extended his hand and made a courtesy gesture.

Yu Zhuo pulled open the chair, his expression slightly stiff: "Thank you."

"You're welcome." Zhi Lan fiddled with the porridge in his bowl, "Are you feeling better?"

Yu Zhuo said, "I just took some medicine and I feel much better now."

"Hmm." Zhi Lan was a little absent-minded. He crushed the porridge in the bowl and looked towards Yu Zhuo's direction. "Did you hear that just now?"

Yu Zhuo paused, and Chi Lan sensed something for some reason and slowly narrowed his eyes.

"Did you hear Suhui talking just now?" he asked again.
