Xu Wanshao's consciousness was becoming hazy.

When she was suddenly fed a mouthful of extremely bitter medicine, her whole face scrunched up.

She pushed the person in front of her wildly, crying, "No...please..."

Du Yu seemed not to hear her, tilted his head back and took a sip, then pinched her chin and kissed her.

The medicine was fed into her mouth; it was bitter, astringent, and had an earthy smell.

Her throat throbbed with uncontrollable swallowing, the bitter taste shooting straight to her head, forcing her to the point that tears welled up in her eyes.

How could Zhu You and the others not comfort her and make her drink such bitter medicine?

After taking the medicine, she wrapped herself in animal skin and refused to leave "Zhuyou" no matter how much he called from behind.

She was in so much pain; she needed them to comfort her before she felt better.

Du Yu really didn't have much talent for chivalry, and seeing her like this, he thought she was still resisting his approach.

He took a deep breath, suppressing his agitation, and pulled the animal skin up for her.

As he left, Chao Yebai left a message saying, "Take good care of her," and then hurriedly departed.

Ye Bai didn't care where he went or what he did.

I was finally released, and I had so many things I wanted to do, but now...

He sat back down on the edge of the bed and tentatively placed his hand on the little female's face.

Yes, I was hugged.

It felt like a feather had brushed against his heart, making him feel a little itchy, and causing the corners of his mouth to involuntarily turn up a few pixels.

*

When Xu Wan opened her eyes, she was not fully conscious.

The arms in her arms were strong and powerful. She thought it was Zhu You accompanying her, so she subconsciously hugged him tighter and rubbed against him affectionately.

"Candlelight Ghost..."

The other person didn't respond, and the arm in his arms didn't have a cool body temperature.

Realizing something was wrong, she looked up and met a pair of amber eyes.

"woke up."

Startled, she released her grip and instinctively backed away.

She forgot that this wasn't a cave; there was nothing behind her, and she leaned back as she knelt on the edge of the bed.

"what……"

Her wrist was grabbed and pulled forward, causing her to fall into Ye Bai's arms.

The tip of my nose bumped into your hard chest, and tears welled up instantly.

Ye Bai frowned and raised his hand to wipe away the wetness at the corner of her eye with his fingertips.

"Why are you crying?"

She turned her head away, asking, "Where is this?"

"Dark Night City."

My sluggish brain finally started working again. Yes, Dark Night City.

She was brought back by Du Yu, who flew so fast that the wind made her catch a cold.

"Where's Wataru?"

"Something's up."

"What is it?"

"have no idea."

He's not Bai Ye, so what Du Yu does has nothing to do with him.

Xu Wan was furious and it was hard not to think of conspiracy theories.

Did Du Yu deliberately find someone like this to prevent her from talking to males?

"What's your name?"

"...Ye Bai."

In fact, he had already said it once while she was unconscious.

It seems she didn't hear me, so I'll say it again.

To avoid trouble, regardless of whether he or Bai Ye controlled this body, they all referred to themselves as Bai Ye.

But for some reason, he didn't want to face her under the name Bai Ye.

This was the first time he had ever said his name in front of others.

Du Yu doesn't count; he discovered it himself.

"How long did I sleep?"

"Three days."

Xu Wan took a deep breath. "Could you say more?"

He answered whatever she asked.

He should at least give her a brief introduction, explaining what Dark Night City is like, why he's here, and what his relationship with Du Yu is, so she can gather more information.

Ye Bai's language system was never comprehensive; after all, when he was needed, all he had to do was kill people.

The little female's words caused his already limited language system to crash.

He frowned and thought for a long time, then asked, "For example?"

Xu Wan laughed angrily, pulled her hand away, and lay down with her back to him.

"I want to see Wataru."

"no."

Why?

"He has something to do."

The Central Beast City is about to hold another prayer ceremony.

At this time of year, the conflict between Beast City and Dark Night City intensifies.

The city of Dark Night is teeming with vicious orcs, and Du Yu has always maintained the strength of a fourth-tier orc.

Many people are eyeing the position of city lord and want to take advantage of his busy schedule to scheme against him.

Therefore, before the crisis is resolved, he cannot come to see the little female, and she cannot be discovered by anyone.

Otherwise, the young females will become targets of attack from all sides.

Xu Wan felt her head, which had just recovered from a fever, start to ache again.

"I need to speak with Du Yu."

"Find me."

Ye Bai responded quickly, as if he had prepared those words long ago.

Xu Wan opened her mouth, then closed it again.

...Forget it, there's nothing to say to someone who never utters more than three words in a single sentence.

She closed her eyes and lay back down. "I'm hungry."

"Um."

Once the footsteps faded into the distance, Xu Wan quietly breathed a sigh of relief, her consciousness sinking into the system space.

"System..."

Before she could even finish calling out his name, she froze on the spot.

The light ball we used to toss around is gone? And there's a huge... man lying on the ground?

She tentatively took two steps forward and gently nudged his calf with her toes.

Why is there no movement?

She tilted her head to look at the little blue flower that was babbling beside her, and squatted down to touch its petals.

"Sweetie, who is this person?"

The little blue flower shook its head, as if trying to organize its thoughts.

"Chief...Chief..."

"The Commander? You're saying this person is the Commander?"

Xu Wan felt that the phrase "it's hard to explain" was not enough to describe her expression at that moment.

She turned her head to look at the man lying on the ground.

Even with his eyes closed, there was a hint of lazy nonchalance in his expression.

It does, surprisingly, fit her impression of the system as anthropomorphic.

She reached out with disdain and pulled her hand away from the base of the small orchid, saying, "You're crushing our precious flower."

Seeing that he still didn't move, she simply reached out and touched his face again.

There's no way around it, he really is good-looking.

She could touch him a few more times while he was still asleep without being noticed.

She completely forgot why she had come in in the first place.

Squatting on the ground, he rubbed and pinched the system's face, having a great time, unaware that the man's fingers curled up.

After she had had enough fun, she withdrew her hand.

"Tsk, she's quite good-looking."

If we don't confront her in the opposite lane, and we increase the drop rate of treasure chests and give her more backdoors, then that would be the most perfect system.

Just as she was about to get up, her wrist was suddenly grabbed and a force pulled her down.

She lay sprawled on the system.

When I looked up, I met a pair of weary eyes that held a hint of helplessness.

"Xu Wan, have you forgotten that I can hear your thoughts?"

Seeing that she was stunned, he raised his hand and gently brushed the tip of her nose.

"You're practically throwing abacus beads at my face! You might as well let me be a turtle in a wishing well, huh?"

And the most perfect system—if he could really do everything, she wouldn't be in this state now.

Xu Wan tried to push him away in a flustered manner, but he held her even tighter.

"What? You want to run away after you're done playing?"

His tone carried a lazy smile, "Xu Wan, aren't you prepared to take responsibility?"
