Chapter 2: Joining forces with the system to bury the baby's chest
The system rejects your insults and turns on blocking mode, pretending to be deaf and dumb.
Jiang Chen was so angry that he fell backwards. The system's backstab caught him off guard.
[Forget it, it's just a serious illness. It's worth it to be able to see my cub.]
Jiang Chen recalled the plot of the original novel, calmed down, and waited for Lu Chiyuan's anger.
However, the thunder he imagined did not come, and Lu Chiyuan raised his hand to signal Scarface to let him go.
Jiang Chen stood up, rubbing his aching arm, looking a little confused. Did he escape a disaster?
Lu Chiyuan looked at Scarface and said, "Chen Jiu, are you sure you have checked all the rooms carefully?"
Chen Jiu said: "We checked it. It was the young lady's room. We checked it several times."
"Really?" Lu Chiyuan asked back, looking at Jiang Chen calmly, "What do you think?"
Jiang Chen, who was controlled by the plot, wanted to cry but had no tears. He said uncontrollably that he didn't know, but he was madly complaining in his heart: [Baby, don't believe him, he is a traitor, he has been bribed by Shen Zhiyi a long time ago. Even the secret compartment where Shen Zhiyi hid was made by him for Shen Zhiyi. ]
Lu Chiyuan's face turned cold and he looked at Chen Jiu with a sharp gaze.
Chen Jiu is the security chief of the villa and also the first person to work with Lu Chiyuan. He can be regarded as a veteran around Lu Chiyuan.
Lu Chiyuan trusted him very much and entrusted all the affairs around him to him. But now Jiang Chen's inner voice was telling Lu Chiyuan that this person had betrayed him.
On one side was Xuanhu's voice, and on the other side were his subordinates with whom he had worked for many years. Lu Chiyuan did not trust either side.
He stood up and walked to Jiang Chen, grabbed Jiang Chen's arm, looked at his innocent face, and said, "Come with me."
Jiang Chen was puzzled and was dragged upstairs by him in a daze.
Chen Jiu, who was standing by, saw that the situation was not good and immediately chased after him.
Jiang Chen jogged two steps to catch up with Lu Chiyuan, and they went from being dragged to walking side by side. He followed Lu Chiyuan around the long corridor and stopped in front of a pink door.
In this villa full of cold colors, this pink door is like another style of painting, which is out of tune with everything around it.
Lu Chiyuan stood at the door, his hand on the door handle. He only needed to hold it and turn it gently, and the door would open, and the answer he wanted would appear before his eyes.
But at this moment, an inexplicable force stopped him from going into it. His energy to rush upstairs disappeared as he stopped walking, and he felt an unprecedented fatigue.
He looked at Jiang Chen and asked casually, "Where will Shen Zhiyi go?"
Jiang Chen has learned to play the role of a fool who knows nothing and looks at Lu Chiyuan with a silly smile on his face.
[Where else can a love-crazed young lady go? Of course, she goes to her boyfriend and elopes with him. ]
[Although she was finally found by Zizi, he lost a big business order because of her. Damn it, seeing Zizi lose money hurts more than me losing money.]
Jiang Chen was heartbroken and only regretted that he couldn't personally go out and find Shen Zhiyi out of the room.
Lu Chiyuan's eyebrows were throbbing wildly, and all the unstable factors that prevented him gradually dissipated as if they could not withstand his inner disgust and resistance after he knew that he would have to clean up the mess for Shen Zhiyi again.
Lu Chiyuan turned the handle, and with a click, the door opened, and the invisible power that enveloped him disappeared.
Chen Jiu, who was following behind, had a gloomy expression on his face, but he quickly calmed down. He hurried into the house and raised his voice, "Lu..."
Before he finished speaking, Lu Chiyuan glanced at him, and Chen Jiu's voice was stuck in his throat. He didn't dare to think about it anymore, and glanced at the closet obscurely, praying in his heart that Lu Chiyuan was just taking a look and not discovering anything.
Jiang Chen walked around the room and realized that this was the cloakroom where Shen Zhiyi hid in the original novel.
[I didn't notice it when I was reading, but now I'm standing here and I realize that in such hot weather, the secret compartment is not ventilated. How stuffy must it be? She really worked hard to get out.]
Jiang Chen couldn't help but admire Shen Zhiyi's perseverance: [I don't know why Zizi suddenly wants to come up. If I can delay the time, will Shen Zhiyi be unable to bear it and jump out? ]
Jiang Chen looked at Lu Chiyuan who was nearby and found that Lu Chiyuan was also staring at him, his slightly blue eyes were deep and charming.
Jiang Chen's heart skipped a beat. He was immersed in the beauty when he suddenly heard Lu Chiyuan's voice: "Doesn't your head hurt?"
"Ah?" Jiang Chen touched the back of his injured head. Blood was already flowing down his neck, soaking his white shirt.
Perhaps it took time for the souls of the book to fit in, and his pain came and went. After Lu Chiyuan's reminder, he realized that his heart was pounding and his legs were weak. His eyes went dark, he stumbled, and fell straight to the ground.
The expected pain did not come. Lu Chiyuan caught Jiang Chen who had fallen, picked him up and put him on the sofa in the cloakroom. He said to Chen Jiu, "Bring the medicine box over here."
Chen Jiu did not move. He felt that this was a great opportunity and said, "Brother Lu, Xiao Jiang has lost a lot of blood. It is not convenient here. Let's take him outside."
Lu Chiyuan was unmoved and said coldly: "Medical box!"
Jiang Chen felt dizzy and wanted to vomit. He wanted Lu Chiyuan to stay for a while longer, but he didn't say that he wanted to make him suffer!
The sequelae of blood loss made people feel nauseous and vomiting. Jiang Chen opened his eyes in a daze and saw Chen Jiu glaring at him fiercely before leaving.
Jiang Chen: [Who are you? I don’t think you’re too harsh.]
Jiang Chen muttered to himself, and his consciousness gradually sank.
Lu Chiyuan stared at his face with a deep gaze. The light and shadow from the side hid half of his expression, making it difficult to see clearly.
"Ding Dong, system 302 has been turned on and is being connected."
"Host confirms, the system is binding, and the intelligent image customization is being transferred to you. Please select the image."
"A little friendly reminder, the system image will accompany the host throughout the entire mission, so choose carefully!"
A sweet and soft voice sounded in Jiang Chen's mind. Jiang Chen opened his eyes and his consciousness floated in a dark space. In front of him was a computer-sized holographic display screen with several small animal images waiting for selection.
Jiang Chen was stunned for a moment, then realized that this was the true face of the system. Unlike the previous impression of a dragging back, the voice of the one in front of Jiang Chen now sounded gentle and soft.
Jiang Chen suddenly became excited and glanced at the screen: "Cat."
"Host selected, system image generated."
The sweet voice sounded again, and the holographic display screen turned into starlight, which gathered into a silver-shining rural cat in the darkness. It jumped nimbly in the darkness, circled around Jiang Chen, and after confirming Jiang Chen's breath, it jumped onto Jiang Chen's shoulder.
The transformed cat was weightless. It licked its paws dignifiedly, and its voice changed from that of a sweet little girl to that of a young boy: "Hello, host. Nice to meet you. My name is Snowball."
Jiang Chen raised his hand, grabbed Snowball's fate by the scruff of the neck, and brought it to his eyes, smiling evilly, "I'm not good! I want to complain. Why did you block me when I needed you just now?"
Snowball was so scared that his ears popped out and his eyes widened. "It's unfair, host. I just got to work. It was the main system that was executing the transmission mission just now. It has nothing to do with me."
Jiang Chen was half-believing and half-doubting: "Didn't you force me to follow the plot?"
Snowball shook his head quickly and explained, "If the host is referring to triggering a forced plot, it may be that the main system is protecting the host to prevent the host from offending the heroine as soon as he shows up and causing hatred. The host has just arrived in this world and his luck is unstable. If he goes head-on with the son of luck, he will suffer a great loss."
Jiang Chen thought about it and it made sense.
Considering Shen Zhiyi's petty mind, she knew that if he revealed her hiding place, she might be bullied.
But Jiang Chen's inner injustice could not be calmed down by what he said. He let go of the snowball, looked around the dark surroundings, and said, "Shouldn't you explain to me now why I was transmigrated into a book? And that strategy mission? The sound of electricity was hissing all the time, and I didn't hear it clearly."
Snowball shook his head and twitched his ears. Hearing this, he said in confusion: "Mission, what mission? I am the melon-eating system. Missions are the business of the strategy system and have nothing to do with me. Host, have you forgotten the request to travel around the universe and always be the first to eat melons?"
Jiang Chen: “???”
Snowball: “…”
Snowball: "Host, please wait a moment. I'll check."
The information gap between the two sides made Snowball keenly aware that something was wrong. This familiar feeling of confusion reminded it of the drastic jump in the main system when it entered the space, and its heart skipped a beat.
Soon, Snowball let out a mournful cry. As expected, the main system failed again and it had bound to the wrong host.
Snowball wanted to cry but had no tears. He looked at Jiang Chen with his ears drooping and said aggrievedly: "Host, if I say that I am just an ordinary melon-eating system, will you still love me?"
Jiang Chen sneered: "What do you think?"
Snowball immediately knelt down and hugged Jiang Chen's ankles: "Meow Meow is very good. Meow Meow has the latest upgraded gossip system, which can gossip about anyone in this world. Meow Meow is a good cat who can do all nine things, except that he can't make strategy."
The silver cat hugged its legs and cried bitterly. Jiang Chen's cold heart didn't last even a second before it was shattered.
He came into the book inexplicably, and although he was very happy to see Lu Chiyuan, after a brief moment of joy, he was then confused.
This world looks familiar, but actually everything is strange.
Until you figure out what's going on, it's nice to have a pet around who can gossip.
Moreover, as a system, Snowball is not completely useless, Jiang Chen still needs it.
"I forgive you." Jiang Chen said generously, "Let me return to my body first."
The dark environment is depressing, Jiang Chen doesn't like it.
Snowball shook his tail and said happily, "I understand."
As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Chen felt a strong sense of weightlessness. His consciousness returned to his body, and he gradually felt his heartbeat and body temperature.
The snowball did not disappear, it was connected to Jiang Chen's consciousness.
Jiang Chen felt someone bandaging his wound. The movements were very gentle, and the body that was leaning towards him had a unique scent of grass and trees, like a touch of fresh green in the clear sky after the rain, which made people think of vibrant vitality.
Jiang Chen thought, it should be Lu Chiyuan.
[The baby is so close, and the baby smells so good. 】
Lu Chiyuan paused while wrapping gauze around Jiang Chen and looked down at his face.
Jiang Chen lay there with his eyes closed, looking normal, but he didn't know that his red ears had betrayed him.
Jiang Chen hesitated whether to wake up or not, when he suddenly heard a thud outside and a hoarse voice coughing.
[The heroine can't hold it back anymore, hahaha! ]
Jiang Chen realized it was Shen Zhiyi, and opened his eyes curiously, wanting to join in the fun.
As a result, when he raised his eyes, Shen Zhiyi didn't see him, but met Lu Chiyuan's eyes instead.
Lu Chiyuan was very close to him. He had taken off his suit jacket and untied his tie at some point, leaving only the shirt underneath.
Maybe it was because of the hot weather, the top buttons of his shirt were unbuttoned, and when he leaned forward, his collar opened, revealing a large area of his chest. His solid muscles, smooth lines, and wheat-colored skin were a masterpiece of meticulous craftsmanship, simply perfect!
Jiang Chen's eyes moved slightly downwards, and he saw everything clearly. His heart was pounding, and his brain was buzzing, as if a bunch of fireworks had exploded.
He propped himself up in a somewhat embarrassed manner and tried to dodge, his nose felt hot and a warm current flowed down.
Lu Chiyuan raised his eyebrows and handed over the unused gauze in his hand.
Jiang Chen took it and covered his nose to stop the nosebleed, feeling too embarrassed to face anyone.
[Wow, wow, I want to bury myself in my baby’s chest. ]
Lu Chiyuan: “…”
Lu Chiyuan stood up silently, buttoned up his shirt, looked at Shen Zhiyi who was surprised, and said coldly: "Are you willing to come out?"
