『Host, get ready. One kick and we can wrap it up.』 006 said cheerfully in Shu Xian’s ear.
『Hmph, watch big bro perform~』 Shu Xian replied to 006 in his mind.
He watched the figure coming down from upstairs.
Shu Xian stepped forward with a mocking smile. “Yo, isn’t this my fifty-something dad’s illegitimate child from outside the family?”
“After a wash, you do look human enough, but that still won’t wash away the filthy smell on you.”
Seeing that Li Wu had no reaction, Shu Xian frowned in displeasure. What kind of reaction is that? If you’re this indifferent, how am I supposed to find a reason to kick you?
Not even a little sensible.
But this protagonist shou is actually pretty handsome. He had neat short hair, skin pale to the point of looking sickly, deep brows and eyes, and a charisma in his pupils that was impossible to resist. This suit only made him look even more noble and elegant.
『That’s so annoying. I want a face like that too.』 Shu Xian complained in his mind.
『Host, you already look great. You’re no worse than him.』 006 hurried to comfort him. Its host was the most handsome~
『Hmph, of course!』
“I’ll warn you right now: don’t think that just because you’re back, this house belongs to you.” Shu Xian said to Li Wu and kicked him.
That kick nearly made Shu Xian cry. Was Li Wu’s leg really that solid? Rock hard.
He forced through the pain and went upstairs. Damn, his leg was definitely bruised.
Li Wu watched the retreating figure go upstairs. The boy was only in his early twenties, with outstanding looks and striking features. Anyone who saw him would not be able to help liking him.
But this was exactly the kind of boy who could say something so chilling with such a gentle expression.
Heh, in this life he did not have the energy to bother with such a tiny ant.
He would never again become an object for those men to fight over. They did not love him. They only wanted to compete and show off their strength.
How laughable.
Back in his room, Shu Xian took off his socks. There was a bruise on the top of his foot. Damn it, how could a weak shou have such hard legs? It was completely inconsistent with the novel.
『Oh my, big bro, your foot has turned blue.』 006 squawked in his mind.
『Report it as a workplace injury and give me some compensation.』 He took the chance to ask 006. Actually, this body was just too weak. Even a light touch would make the skin turn red.
『Then I’ll give big bro an invincible buff as compensation, valid for one hour.』
『Okay, I’ll call you when I need it.』 Hehe, something worth 1,000 points for free. Shu Xian happily rubbed the back of his foot, and it seemed to hurt less.
『Big bro, does it hurt less now?』 I spoil my own big bro~
『Yeah, not bad. If you threw in a bit more, it would probably be healed.』 Shu Xian pretended not to care.
『No can do, big bro. If I break the rules, I’ll be punished. Big bro, just do the tasks properly, and there will be lots of rewards later.』
That’s right, Shu Xian was dead. Before dying, he had been bound to 006.
All he had to do was complete the task of supplementing the novel’s plot and make the story complete.
Later on, he could choose a task world to live in, and he would also be given a villa and a reward of 200 million.
In his previous life, Shu Xian had no family. From the time he could understand things, he had been in an orphanage. After the dean raised him to adulthood, he went out into society to struggle.
He wanted to earn a lot, a lot of money to repay the dean, but he never expected that day and night overtime work would cause him to die of overwork.
Before binding with 006, Shu Xian asked 006 to advance one reward of 100 million and anonymously transfer it to the orphanage dean’s name.
006 agreed too.
Although he could no longer return to that world, Shu Xian felt relieved knowing that the dean would receive that money.
His current task was to trip up the protagonist shou, Li Wu. Once the four men who liked him appeared and the five of them got together, Shu Xian could log off.
Actually, Li Wu was not the original owner’s father’s child. He was the child of a much more famous declining aristocratic family. Shu Xian’s father had searched for a long time before he finally found him.
Only when Li Wu turned nineteen would Shu Xian’s father hand over the property entrusted to him by Li Wu’s father.
But strangely enough, the timeline was off.
In the original novel, Li Wu was not brought back until he was twenty. Now Li Wu was only eighteen. Why had he been brought back so much earlier?
『006, are you sure there’s nothing wrong with the current plot? The protagonist shou came back this early.』 Shu Xian could not help asking.
『Don’t worry, big bro. The scan shows no problems.』 006 scanned the plot again before answering.
No problem was fine.
『Then, have the four pursuers shown up yet?』 The four rich and powerful men would each meet the protagonist shou where he worked.
『The backend scan says not yet.』 006 said after checking.
『They haven’t shown up? How did the meeting time change too?』 By this point, they should all have begun pursuing Li Wu on their own, but the four of them still did not know the others existed.
『Big bro, a delay like this is normal. I once had a host whose task was to fall in love, but the characters in the plot did not show up until he was fifty.』
『That’s ridiculous… This is just a romance so absurd it makes people laugh their heads off.』 He was starting to doubt how reliable this system was.
What if the four men never showed up? Would he have to keep waiting forever?
『Don’t worry, big bro. They will show up. The fifty-year case was just a probability event.』 Seeing Shu Xian’s confusion, 006 comforted him.
『Fine, then. If you screw me over, I’ll file a complaint against you.』 Hmph.
『Boo hoo, host, you’re so heartless. If you complain, I’ll be taken back and you won’t be able to see me anymore, boo hoo.』 The little virtual person in the brain chip bounced up and down.
『Enough, I was just teasing you.』
Only then did 006 stop looking so pitiful.
Shu Xian’s parents were busy with the company’s business year-round and hardly ever came home. Now there were only Shu Xian and Li Wu in the villa.
The maid cooked the food, cleaned up, and left.
After lunch, Shu Xian sprawled on the sofa, playing on his phone.
When Li Wu came downstairs, he saw that person wearing a white cashmere sweater. The sweater was loose-fitting, and as he lay on his side, his delicate collarbone was exposed.
Paired with black shorts, his long legs rested on the sofa armrest. From Li Wu’s angle, he could even see the pale skin of the man’s thigh and that small…
Li Wu’s deep eyes darkened, and he walked toward the dining room.
After finishing his meal, Li Wu was somewhat surprised. In his previous life, Shu Xian had never let him have a single proper meal. He would either deliberately pick a fight or look for a chance to harm him.
Could Shu Xian also be reincarnated?
At that thought, a flash of chill passed through his eyes, and his whole body suddenly burst with strong killing intent.
No one could stop him in this life…
Before long, Li Wu’s eyes returned to their cold, distant look.
He walked toward Shu Xian.
Since Shu Xian had no task, he did not want to pay him any mind and remained relaxed on the sofa.
Li Wu just stood there quietly, looking at Shu Xian.
Shu Xian roared in his heart. Are you sick? Don’t make me slap you. I don’t want to go to work!
“What, you want to sit?” Shu Xian said as he pulled back his long legs.
Li Wu actually sat down!?
Are you crazy? There are sofas on both sides, and you have to sit on mine?
“Oh, you’re trying to butter me up?” Shu Xian said with a mocking expression, placing his long legs on Li Wu’s legs and saying, “Give brother a leg rub, and brother will have your back from now on.”
