"This...this is how you repay, repay a debt of gratitude."
After Fu Yu finished speaking, she secretly bit her tongue.
Although she had been in this world for some time, she still hadn't gotten used to the original owner's stuttering problem.
She had considered repairing the original owner's physical ailments, but the system ruthlessly rejected her idea.
"Sorry, host, you do not currently have permission to modify the original owner's habits."
Habit?
It's not an illness?
The original owner grew up in an orphanage and had an inferiority complex and a timid personality.
Even after working hard to save enough money to study abroad, I still feel stupid and weak, and subconsciously try to please everyone.
Fu Yu sighed.
The system pulled out a golden letter from behind its back.
"Host, would you like to accept this world's hidden side quest? The reward is 500 million! 500 million!"
Fu Yu accepted the system's sycophantic smile with disdain.
A progress bar appeared beside him.
"Please increase the original owner's favorability value. When the favorability value reaches 100, the stuttering habit can be overcome."
That's very simple.
"Chief, should I not worry about the male lead's 'darkening' level? I think this time the male lead's combat power is quite high, and his emotions are also a bit..."
Moody...
The system waved a small white flag.
"The Cyber System does not save truly evil people. The System reminds you that the male protagonist of this world is truly lawless, ruthless, and vicious. The host must pay attention to his physical and mental safety."
Cosimo's calloused hands caressed her neck, and sensing that Fu Yu's expression was somewhat detached, he subconsciously grasped Fu Yu's neck.
At the same time, the pectoral muscles beneath the suit fabric pressed tightly against Fu Yu, rising and falling slightly with his breathing.
It's strange, he's not a lustful person, but every time he runs into Fu Yu...
My body feels like it's burning with fire, and the fire just keeps getting stronger.
Only by getting close to Fu Yu can one feel a little coolness.
"This is the first time I've ever repaid a debt of gratitude."
"You don't like this method?"
Fu Yu lowered her eyes and looked at Cosimo's hand, where the veins were bulging. "You just... pinch... pinch... your benefactor."
"Feel sorry."
Cosimo slowly released her hand, but just as Fu Yu was about to leave, he grabbed her neck again and held her tightly in his arms.
He couldn't bear to see her go too far away from him.
Ideally, the distance would always remain this close, or perhaps even closer, much closer.
"Would you feel more comfortable this way?"
Fu Yu finally understood.
Cosimo's thought process is indeed a bit abnormal.
“Since…I…am your benefactor…you…should…give me…what I want.”
Upon hearing this, Cosimo raised an eyebrow. "What do you want?"
"money."
Fu Yu's straightforwardness successfully amused Cosimo.
"I'm sorry, baby, I don't want to give you money right now. All I can give you is a job."
"Of course, the monthly salary is quite high."
Fu Yu pursed her lips and replied without hesitation, "What...work?"
"My personal assistant."
Cosimo's idea was actually very simple: he had feelings for Fu Yu, so Fu Yu had to stay by his side and never leave him.
This technique originated from his father's teachings.
In the spring of 1988, my mother, who worked for the Suzhou-Hangzhou Pingtan Troupe, came to Sicily with an investment promotion team.
At that time, my father had just taken over the troubled gang.
In turbulent times, street brawls were commonplace.
The father was ambushed by his mortal enemy and accidentally stumbled into the hotel where his mother was staying.
His mother was kind-hearted; she not only helped him heal his wounds but also drove away his mortal enemies.
He even risked being implicated by the police department to hide his father.
The father fell in love at first sight with this seemingly delicate but strong and brave Eastern woman.
But he knew that his mother would soon leave Sicily and return to China.
He had to find a way to keep her in Sicily, to keep her there forever.
So he used the excuse that he urgently needed a Chinese translator to keep his mother by his side.
I thought I could win my mother's heart over time.
Unexpectedly, my mother had a fiancé in China, and the two had a very good relationship. No matter what methods my father used to seduce my mother, she remained unmoved.
In a fit of anger, the father placed his mother under house arrest in Sicily and forced her to marry and have children.
At first, the mother refused to comply, hating the father, the regimental commander who helped the father deceive her, and even the newborn Cosimo.
But time will dispel all hatred.
When her mother passed away, she was wearing the sapphire ring her father had used to propose to her.
Her tombstone is engraved with her father's surname.
Her last words were...
"It seems that, like most Chinese women, I am good at treating shackles as my final destination."
Cosimo was only 6 years old when his mother passed away and did not understand Chinese.
He didn't understand the meaning of those words.
The father explained that there is a word in Italian called Corteggiamento.
It means to hunt for love.
Love is not something you can beg for, wait for, or attract; there is no such thing as destiny.
Love requires hunting, scheming, and fighting.
Whoever is stronger will have this sweet love.
Influenced by his father, Cosimo naturally believed in this theory of plunder and extortion.
If Fu Yu dares to run away, he wouldn't mind following his father's example.
He would choose a softer rope to avoid chafing Fu Yu's slender wrists and ankles.
"I accept."
"But, but I still have to go to school. I'm about to graduate... I can't... neglect my studies."
Although she needed to win over Cosimo, Fu Yu still felt it was best not to get too entangled with this man.
Just follow the storyline.
