Chapter 160 These souls call themselves mission takers
After finishing her conversation with Qin Shu, An Ruoruo hung up the phone with some regret.
An Ruoruo: "Baby said she likes my face now and won't let me get plastic surgery."
Her tone revealed a hint of superiority and boastfulness, "But I'll soon be able to change my name to Qin Mo."
Wen Yao breathed a sigh of relief; thankfully, one of them was more rational.
Since Qin Shu was about to arrive from Country D, Wen Yao and her husband decided to stay an extra day.
In the afternoon, Qin Shu arrived at the hospital with a cold expression but hurried steps. Seeing the two beauties embracing intimately, Wen Yao and Fu Jinzhi tactfully left the room.
An Ruoruo's body had not yet fully recovered, and she needed to sleep for more than ten hours a day. Soon, she could no longer resist the drowsiness and collapsed into Qin Shu's arms.
Qin Shuzong's icy, hard eyes softened for once.
She gently placed An Ruoruo back on the bed, watched her quietly for a while, and then went to the corridor to greet Wen Yao and Fu Jinzhi.
Wen Yao had some questions that she had been holding back for a long time, but she never had the chance to ask them. Now she finally couldn't hold back anymore.
She sat on a bench in the corridor, her fingers supporting her chin, looking up at Qin Shu like a well-behaved kitten.
Wen Yao: "Qin Shu, you clearly wanted to see Ruoruo, so why are you only coming now?"
When they paid their respects to An Ruoruo before, Qin Shu's ghostly appearance left a deep impression on Wen Yao.
Therefore, as soon as An Ruoruo returned to China, Wen Yao asked Fu Jinzhi to pass the message to Qin Shu.
For some reason, Qin Shu never looked for An Ruoruo.
Even if you're very busy with work, you shouldn't react so calmly.
Qin Shu was wearing a snow-white shirt today, her hair was loosely tied into a low ponytail, and she wore rimless glasses on her nose, looking casual and aloof.
Her gaze towards Wen Yao was neither cold nor warm, but her reply was unusually patient:
"The one before wasn't Ruoruo."
"At least the soul isn't."
Wen Yao's breath hitched, her hands trembled involuntarily, and a layer of cold sweat broke out on her back.
Wen Yao: "8848, what's going on?"
How could Qin Shu, a native, reveal such a shocking truth?
8848: [Oh, you're asking me? I'm surprised too!]
8848 is as incompetent as ever.
Wen Yao forced a smile: "Don't scare me. It should just be a split second personality, right? Why do you make it sound like you're possessed by a ghost?"
A strange smile appeared on Qin Shu's face. "No, no one knows An Ruoruo better than me."
She twirled a string of wooden beads on her wrist. "You're not wrong to say it's possession by a ghost, but these spirits call themselves mission takers."
Qin Shu: "This phenomenon is not an isolated case; it is all recorded in state secret archives. I heard about it when I was a child, hiding in my grandfather's study."
Qin Shu's grandfather was a high-ranking official in H country, the kind who had the opportunity to elect the highest leader and wielded extremely high authority.
Wen Yao felt as if an electric current had shot from the top of her head to her toes, leaving her body numb.
Qin Shu looked as if he were possessed. "It's such a pity. The information provided by the classified files of various countries is limited. Behind them is probably a world far beyond our technological level or even dimensions."
Sensing that Wen Yao was not in a good mood, Fu Jinzhi held her slightly cold hand firmly in his palm, as if protecting her whole body.
Wen Yao quickly regained her composure, grasped Fu Jinzhi's hand in return, and met Qin Shu's gaze again:
Even if An Ruoruo isn't the real person, are you really going to give up on her completely?
"I won't." The madness on Qin Shu's face faded, but a deeper emotion was hidden in his eyes. "How could I possibly give up on Ruoruo?"
Qin Shu: "The D Country Tess Research Institute has the most thorough research on these extraterrestrial visitors and can already detect some abnormal fluctuations."
“I joined their research group, and one day we will drive out these shameless imposters.”
Qin Shu looked out the window, his voice cold: "If the research fails, I will personally execute the imposter."
No one can replace her.
Qin Shu learned of An Ruoruo's every move the moment she returned to China.
But her excitement was quickly dampened: that was definitely not her lover.
After a period of observation and research, Qin Shu could basically determine that this was the so-called mission taker.
An ordinary person would probably feel despair and resentment, but Qin Shu was a woman of action—she went to the Tesla Research Institute.
Unexpectedly, the mission taker disappeared so quickly, and An Ruoruo herself was not harmed.
A complex look flashed in Qin Shu's eyes as he looked at Wen Yao. Why bother to delve deeper?
The ending was good, wasn't it?
8848: [How terrifying, host, this world is in complete chaos!]
Wen Yao: "..."
Very well, her fear has now completely dissipated, and she even finds it somewhat amusing that 8848 is even more surprised and panicked than she is.
"What, you're about to become the Heavenly Dao's Lord 8848, are you still afraid of the little humans under your command?" Wen Yao teased.
8848's mechanical voice angrily exclaimed: "[This world's consciousness is utterly incompetent; how can it allow stowaways to pierce it like a sieve?]"
No wonder the plot is all messed up, with these random female leads and "white moonlight" characters appearing out of nowhere!
For no apparent reason, the female lead is the "white moonlight" (idealized love interest)?
Wen Yao pondered the meaning behind 8848's words, her eyes slightly narrowed.
On the return flight, Wen Yao put on an eye mask and covered herself with a blanket, pretending to be about to catch up on sleep, but in reality, she was mentally questioning 8848.
Wen Yao: "You didn't have enough authority before, but now you can finally speak up. What exactly is the original novel about?"
"Looking back, it was strange of you to mention the contents of the book."
8848: [My permissions are probably high enough, wait for me to try.]
After a few crisp buzzing sounds, the 8848's mechanical voice chimed, "[It can really talk now!]"
8848: [This little world wasn't originally a romance world, and it has absolutely nothing to do with melodrama.]
[It was originally just a simple world of overpowered protagonists, with the male lead Fu Jinzhi's career path as the main storyline, gradually leading him out of H country, conquering Y continent, heading to the Northern Hemisphere, and finally reaching the top of the world.]
[No romance, a pure male protagonist overpowered protagonist masterpiece!]
8848 was indignant: "This was my coming-of-age gift, a carefully chosen world of overpowered protagonists!"
But just before I graduated, when I was about to be qualified to accept the world, a global consciousness awakened here.
[It completely ruined my dream!]
"[Haven't I been destroyed by you?]" A strange yet familiar voice echoed in Wen Yao's mind.
Wen Yao clenched her fists involuntarily. This was An Rourou?
No, it should be called world consciousness.
World consciousness: [Ah, why did Heaven create both Zhou Yu and Zhuge Liang?]
[Now that I've awakened my consciousness, why should I refrain from competing and letting those who come after me surpass me?]
[If I don't seize the male protagonist's destiny, I'll forever be a puppet of the Heavenly Dao, manipulated by the system headquarters. I simply want to change my own fate!]
8848: [Your way of awakening is to allow stowaways to freely enter and leave the world, destroying the world's barrier and stealing the male protagonist's luck.]
Don't you know this will cause the world to collapse at an alarming rate?!
