Habits are hard to break.
Fang Shan gently held Wei Sushen's face in his hands. "That being said, a good habit will soon be ruined if it's not repeated for a few days."
Wei Sushen said in an equally gentle tone, "A bad habit is probably difficult to change throughout your life. Even if you quit it in the short term, as long as there are some signs of it, you can recover."
“…”
They looked at each other in silence. Neither of them was the type to reveal their true emotions easily. If they expressed their true feelings, one would shed tears and the other would surely be overjoyed.
Fang Shan changed the subject: "What did the host decide to take away?"
Wei Sushen looked at him: "Can you leave something behind instead?"
Fang Shan smiled and narrowed his eyes: "Even if I become a ghost, I will follow you."
After a few pleasantries, they tacitly stopped discussing the topic. Wei Sushen simply asked, "What is valuable?"
He walked away from Fang Shan, gazing out the window at the plants and trees, still unable to think of anything useful to take away. After a long pause, Wei Sushen asked, "You can't cultivate telekinesis in the real world, right?"
Fang Shan nodded: "That sculpture is quite valuable."
Wei Sushen didn't think about this and guessed that there was little hope of taking him away.
Fang Shan then asked, "Bald, would you consider it?"
Wei Sushen turned his head slightly: "You mean the crystal ball?"
Fang Shan: "The crystal ball is used to test the talents of Imperial College students, but compared to a sculpture, its value is much less."
Wei Sushen: "If I take the crystal ball away, what detection talent will I use in the future?"
Fang Shan chuckled, "When did you become so worrying?"
His smile faded, and he said seriously, "The world will automatically repair itself after we leave, let alone a mere crystal ball." At this point, his brows furrowed slightly, "But it contains the telekinesis left by the first dean. I'm not sure if we can take it with us."
After saying this, he put his hands together.
Wei Sushen: "What are you doing?"
"Pray." Fang Shan looked up at the sky devoutly: "Dear God, I am your most lovely child. Please bless me and make my wish come true."
Suddenly, dark clouds rolled in the sky.
Wei Sushen had already stepped back a few steps and said solemnly, "Remember to go to the rooftop next time you make a wish?"
Fang Shan: "Why?"
Wei Sushen: "There is a lightning rod there."
As if to confirm his words, lightning suddenly appeared behind the clouds.
Fang Shan pretended to whimper a few times and ran to Wei Sushen: "I'm being disliked."
Wei Sushen didn't know how to comfort him, so he could only say, "This isn't something we've known for a long time."
Fang Shan sighed and said, "Let's go talk to the crystal ball first and ask for its advice."
Wei Sushen was slightly surprised: "Do you still need to ask the person involved what he thinks?"
Fang Shan shook his head. Could this man have been a bully in his previous life?
They said they were communicating with the crystal ball together, but in reality it was Fang Shan who was talking. Wei Sushen believed that he did not have the ability to understand what a sphere was saying.
Throughout the whole process, Fang Shan seemed to be talking to himself.
"If I take you to another world, would you agree?"
"We're not crazy, and we don't want to kill you."
"Oh, by the way, I may not be able to take you away successfully. I have selected a set of exercises in advance. Although I can't cultivate anything, it can help you strengthen your body in the other world."
Wei Sushen, who had been silent until now, could not help but ask, "Kung Fu?"
Fang Shan nodded. "Actually, at first I just wanted you to keep the crystal ball as a spare tire. After all, it can only be used as a mascot if you take it back."
For example, if you occasionally dislike someone, you can use the power of the crystal ball to give them a nightmare. Apart from that, it has basically no other use.
Wei Sushen glanced at the crystal ball. A bright light burst out from it, and he felt very dissatisfied at first sight.
Even if it's a crystal ball, I don't want to be a spare tire.
Wei Sushen suddenly felt a little sympathy for it.
Fang Shan talked for a long time, and finally said to Wei Sushen: "It said it is willing."
Wei Sushen was quite skeptical: "Really?"
Fang Shan looked focused and nodded heavily.
Wei Sushen didn't say much until he was on his way back to the dormitory, when he suddenly said, "666."
Having not heard it for a long time, Fang Shan was stunned for a moment before realizing that someone was calling him.
Wei Sushen: "Every time you lie, you habitually don't blink."
Fang Shan: "Is that so?"
Wei Sushen nodded slightly.
Fang Shan scratched the back of his head and acted shy. "Thank goodness the host reminded me. I'll definitely pay attention next time."
“…”
At the end of the month, it was the flower season, and the vast expanses of bright red flowers seemed to be the only romance in Imperial College.
Fang Shan looked at the beautiful scenery and said, "Doesn't it look like a farewell for us?"
Wei Sushen glanced at him and said, "It's just the normal cycle of plants."
Fang Shan deeply believes that the host should be brainwashed again, and what he has done now is far from enough.
When will the CEO brain turn into a love brain?
Wei Sushen had his usual cold expression on his face: "The Heavenly Ranking has been updated. There's no need to stay any longer. I want to go back before tonight."
Fang Shan: "So urgent?"
Wei Sushen wanted to swallow his saliva when he saw him now, but he forced himself to suppress the urge and did not tell the truth. Once he was idle, the system would have all kinds of strange ideas.
Mission accomplished, return in time to ensure safety.
Fang Shan seemed to see through his idea and sneered in his heart, thinking that it was too early to be reassured.
Wei Sushen also saw what the other party was thinking, but he was not nervous. After all, there was a System 333 in the real world to help distract him.
Fang Shan set the departure time at 8 o'clock in the evening, which he said was auspicious.
Wei Sushen had no objection and prepared to go back with the crystal ball that Fang Shan said meant he agreed to go with them.
With a quarter of an hour left, the crystal ball slipped out as if to escape, but Fang Shan quickly grabbed it back. Initially, Wei Sushen, out of sympathy, was prepared to let it go, but later discovered that the crystal ball would hide in the most obvious place whenever it tried to escape.
This truly proves what Fang Shan said: one says one thing but does another.
Fang Shan: "Do you want to experience life and death one last time?"
Wei Sushen didn't want to ask what was between life and death, but Fang Shan had already taken the initiative to explain: "You hold me and jump down from the rooftop, and put your clothes back on the second before hitting the ground."
Wei Sushen: "I choose the kind of reality that can be reached as soon as I open my eyes."
Fang Shan kept muttering that it was boring, but he still followed his choice and returned to the world in the most stable way.

choke.
The smoke was so thick that it was hard to even cough. Fortunately, the smoke had a scent of incense, so it was not so choking that it made people unable to breathe.
The moment Wei Sushen opened his eyes, they were smoked into rabbit-like eyes. He quickly covered Fang Shan's eyes with his hands and stared at the corner of the bed with a murderous look: "What are you doing?"
System 333 was burning incense when he suddenly heard a familiar voice and was overjoyed: "Great! You're back alive."
This mission took so long that Wei Sushen almost forgot that if anything happened to them, System 333, which was trapped in this small place by Fang Shan, would be buried with them.
"Let me out now." System 333's gaze passed directly over Wei Sushen and looked at Fang Shan behind him.
Fang Shan stretched his arms and legs and stood up from the bed, his eyes showing a hint of surprise: "You actually carry so much incense with you."
System 333 scoffed: "What do you know?"
Fang Shan really didn't understand. He had always believed that man could conquer nature. However, ever since he'd been experiencing bad luck for a while, to the point of nearly being struck by lightning, he suddenly felt that occasionally burning incense and praying to Buddha was a good habit.
"Pedantic."
He agreed in his heart but was stubborn outwardly. Fang Shan would never admit that he was jealous of a child who had never enjoyed the love of God's father.
System 333 didn't notice his little mood and was about to make a few more sarcastic remarks when he suddenly saw a glowing crystal ball on the bed and wondered, "Is this the reward you brought back from the mission?"
Fang Shan nodded.
System 333 looked at him with a look that said, "Is there something wrong with you?" "Why did you bring a bald guy back?"
Fang Shan ignored him. Wei Sushen, who was watching from the side, confirmed once again that there were actually similarities between the systems, for example, the ability to make people angry to death.
"War off evil spirits."
System 333 didn't care about his thoughts and asked the most concerned question: "When can we leave?"
Ever since the nightmare appeared, he has been in a state of shock.
Fang Shan did not give an immediate answer, but looked at Wei Sushen. After the latter nodded slightly, Fang Shan said, "Tomorrow."
Hearing this, System 333 breathed a sigh of relief. He was worried that if he stayed any longer, something might happen again.
However, what Fang Shan said was rarely credible. That night, he kicked System 333 awake and told it to return immediately.
"Leave now?" System 333 was sad and angry. Even if they wanted to leave, they had to at least wait until dawn.
Fang Shan: "I always feel like someone is watching me from the dark."
System 333 had dark circles under his eyes. "Did you check it out?"
Fang Shan: "It's normal to get nothing."
He dragged Wei Sushen around the hotel entrance a few times but didn't find anything suspicious.
System 333 howled to the heavens, "Then what are you doing?"
Fang Shan didn't answer and looked at him coldly. System 333 had no choice but to get up. Without even putting on his coat, he held his breath and got on the overnight bus with them to leave.
Fang Shan remained silent and stoic throughout the journey. System 333 had been tempted to throw a tantrum, but then he didn't dare. However, this did help him clear up some confusion... There was a reason why System 666 had survived so safely until now; the slightest sign of trouble could make him so alert.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look at Wei Sushen again. After making sure that he didn't see any dissatisfaction on this person's face, he cursed in his heart, saying that they were birds of the same feather.
Wei Sushen didn't notice System 333's mental activity; to be more precise, he wasn't paying any attention. He calculated the time and realized it would be almost evening when he got home, so he sent Jiang Meiling a message in advance.
·
Wei family.
Jiang Meiling couldn't help but smile when she saw the message sent by her son. She just dialed the number, saw her husband, and hung up the phone.
Wei Ye had just finished showering and shook his head when he saw her actions: "You know, if one spouse behaves like this, it's likely to indicate a new love."
Jiang Meiling was very calm: "It's your son. He said he wanted to come back early."
Wei Ye frowned slightly, and after a moment his expression became more serious than before.
Jiang Meiling raised her eyebrows and said, "Could it be that in your heart, the return of my son is more terrifying than my having a new love?"
Wei Ye shook his head and turned his back.
Jiang Meiling could see what he was thinking. With a smile on her face, she immediately sent a message to Wei Sushen:
Come back by plane.
After posting, I glanced at my husband and sent another one:
The guardian angel misses you.
The author has something to say: Wei Ye’s inner thoughts: The enemy will arrive at the battlefield in twenty-three hours and fifty-two minutes.
Jiang Meiling: ...
