All I heard was her infuriating voice, uttering words that were just as infuriating.
"I'm not that demanding. Considering we've known each other, here's what we'll do: find a way to deprive Lu Sisi of the spiritual spring and give it to me, and that will cover my room fee."
What do you think?
Lu Huaijiao's tone conveyed a sense of understanding and empathy.
998 vomited blood directly.
This was the second time Lu Huaijiao had said such words.
(That is, the matter of wanting Lu Sisi's spiritual spring).
The first time, 998 didn't take it to heart, but this time, 998 didn't want to take it to heart.
It even felt that Lu Huaijiao had some problems.
'That's something given to her by Heaven; I can't control it.'
"I see?"
Lu Huaijiao sounded a little disappointed, but it didn't matter; she quickly recovered.
After all, Lu Huaijiao's ability to regulate her mindset is one of her proudest qualities.
'In that case, you'd better find a new host and leave me. I don't keep idle people here.'
Even a system isn't allowed to shirk its responsibilities.
998: ...
I never expected this.
I never imagined that one day I would be so despised by a mere human being.
It wanted to protest and tried to reason with Lu Huaijiao, making her understand that having it around was entirely beneficial.
Unfortunately, Lu Huaijiao wouldn't listen at all.
Not only did they not listen, they also gave 998 two options.
One option is to find a way to get Lu Sisi's spiritual spring; the other is to get rid of her mind—she doesn't keep idle people around.
'I am a system, not an idle person. I don't eat, drink, or need anything from you. My existence does you no harm.'
998 is making its last stand.
Lu Huaijiao responded with an "oh".
"So you think you can just stay here for free? Don't you know the saying, 'There's no such thing as a free lunch'? You're residing in my mind without paying rent; you're just trying to take advantage of me."
Only Lu Huaijiao would take advantage of others; there is absolutely no possibility of anyone else taking advantage of Lu Huaijiao.
She won't allow that to happen.
Especially since the other party is a system that cannot be seen or touched, and can only be heard.
She'll charge even more.
998 found it unbelievable—no, it should be said that it found Lu Huaijiao utterly unreasonable. But it had no other choice, because Lu Huaijiao had only given it two paths.
First, forcibly remove it from Lu Huaijiao's mind.
Second, find a way to get rid of Lu Sisi's spiritual spring.
Even if I can't take it from her, I can't let her have it.
What Lu Huaijiao disliked most was that she was living a miserable life while the other person was living a good life and even had some kind of spiritual spring.
Wouldn't that make her seem really clueless?
998: ...
It feels a bit duller!
Because Lu Huaijiao was chosen as the host!
Faced with the threat of having to choose between two options, 998 had no choice but to choose the second option in order to protect itself.
"I'll give you three days. Three days is plenty of time for you to find a solution." She added, "Am I being understanding enough? I've given you so much time."
998, haha.
I don't think she gives me that much free time.
But it had no choice but to do it.
998 resignedly went to work, and only then did a smile appear on Lu Huaijiao's face.
Although the chances of 998 finding a solution were slim, it was better to have tried than to do nothing. That's why Lu Huaijiao could finally smile at this moment.
Gu Changzheng, who had been watching her, paused for a moment when he saw Lu Huaijiao's smile.
His wife had been spacing out earlier, and now she's suddenly smiling. What's going on? And that smile... it's like the triumphant smile of someone who's just schemed against someone...
Could it be that his wife is plotting against someone else again?
Gu Changzheng inexplicably felt a chill.
Fortunately, his wife probably won't scheme against him, because she's usually very straightforward with him and wouldn't bother with anything like that...
It seems that as long as it's his wife, he would be willing to jump into a fire pit even if it meant doing it for her.
Although it's a bit tragic to think about, isn't this a good thing?
After all, not everyone can find someone for whom they are willing to give their life.
Thinking about it that way, he seems quite lucky?
This couple is not only good at comforting themselves, but Gu Changzheng is also no less capable than her.
This is probably what they mean by "birds of a feather flock together".
This is absolutely true.
Gu Changqing and Xu Honglian are the same kind of people; they are not from the same family.
The two of them publicly broke off their relationship, escalating to a point where the damage was irreparable.
However, perhaps he never intended to salvage the relationship. Gu Changqing was determined to divorce Xu Honglian.
Sure enough, not long after Lu Huaijiao and the others returned home, they heard Xu Honglian crying and the Xu family cursing from the neighboring courtyard.
Lu Huaijiao looked at Gu Changzheng beside her, her eyes questioning him about what was going on.
Gu Changzheng thought for a moment and said, "The Xu family has come to pack Xu Honglian's clothes."
"Oh, so this divorce is definitely happening?"
