Two seconds later, the system splattered against the opposite wall with a *pat*, then slowly slid to the floor. Its small expression was incredibly aggrieved.
Seeing this, A Wan placed one hand on her hip and the other on the table, laughing heartily, "Hahaha! Serves you right!"
She hadn't swallowed the food in her mouth yet, and with this laugh, she sprayed Mei Li opposite her with a face full of rice.
Mei Li: ...
┻(╬▔皿▔)╯
Mei Li's face darkened. The next second, A Wan, who was still laughing, was also kicked against the wall...
Wei Ge Lin and Han Chen, who were standing by, instinctively swallowed. As Mei Li's gaze fell upon them, they both shivered and stood frozen, not daring to move.
Mei Li: ...What are those expressions?
The two smiled awkwardly and said in unison, "Haha! Nothing, nothing!"
Mei Li withdrew her gaze and walked into her bedroom with a dark face. With a bang, the door was shut, and the living room fell into deathly silence.
Wei Ge Lin and Han Chen exchanged glances and sat in their chairs without speaking.
The system looked at A Wan beside it and said huffily, "Hmph! It's all your fault! Host... Host Great God is angry now! You're finished!"
A Wan: ...
A Wan's expression was sheepish. She raised a hand to rub her nose, then floated to her own room and closed the door to cultivate. She was still a long way from the Ghost King realm...
The next morning, as dawn was just breaking, Wei Ge Lin dragged a very reluctant Han Chen away from Mei Li's house. Before leaving, Wei Ge Lin looked at Mei Li, wanting to say something but stopping. Finally, he spoke, "Miss Lin, I will truthfully convey your suggestion to my father. Also, thank you, Miss Lin."
Mei Li, still groggy from waking up, nodded with a dark expression and said nothing. After the two left, she slammed the door shut and went back to sleep...
At noon, at the dining table, Mei Li was eating lunch with elegant movements. When she looked up, she met the system's timid gaze.
Mei Li: ...What is it?
The system thought for a moment, then spoke while holding a shield, "Host Great God, isn't it time to advance our mission progress bar? For reading."
Mei Li was silent for a moment, then nodded faintly. What other missions were there?
"Take good care of the original host's mother, and the ghost in the room." Seeing Mei Li ask, the system eagerly brought up the mission panel, its little hoof swiping across it, it said.
Mei Li frowned upon hearing this and asked, "Where is the original host's mother now?"
The system checked and replied, "Host Great God, the original host's mother is abroad on business and will return next week."
Mei Li nodded faintly, then put down her chopsticks and walked towards A Wan's room...
She suddenly remembered that today was an important plot point. The demonic Taoist in the original plot seemed to appear today.
With a creak, the door was pushed open. In the pitch-black room with no light, A Wan was meditating on the bed. Suddenly, Mei Li frowned, her gaze swept over, and she saw a faint trace of black energy emanating from A Wan's forehead.
Mei Li was expressionless.
This guy is amazing! He can even go into qi deviation!
Mei Li walked forward and firmly patted A Wan's back with a palm infused with powerful spiritual energy. A Wan coughed up a mouthful of blood, closed her eyes, and lay on the bed, on the verge of death. Her entire soul had become faint and ethereal, utterly pathetic.
