Though agitated, she picked up the small booklet from the ground and began the cultivation journey of a wandering spirit. It wasn't by choice; she had no way to resist. That little girl was truly strange, and she couldn't win. She also knew that the little girl would definitely keep her word, so she had no other option but to cultivate with immense displeasure.
The next morning, while Ming Li was still asleep, she faintly heard the doorbell. Ming Li frowned, sealed her hearing, and continued sleeping.
Outside, the System, who was busily preparing breakfast in the kitchen, also heard the doorbell. It glanced at the eggs frying in the pan, then at the door, hesitated, and said to Ah Wan beside it, "You open the door. If this doorbell keeps ringing..." The System paused, remembering its host's fiery temper, then looked at Ah Wan and continued, "The consequences will be unimaginable!"
Ah Wan, who had been glumly flipping through the booklet, stopped what she was doing. She glanced at the System and instinctively went to open the door.
*Creak*
The door opened, revealing Wei Gelin and Han Chen outside: ...
Han Chen was once again startled into a comical expression, nearly fainting again.
Wei Gelin, having been a spirit himself, quickly regained his composure. He nodded politely to Ah Wan, who was hovering three feet off the ground, "Hello, we're looking for... Qing Li."
Ah Wan frowned. Qing Li? Why did they have to call her so intimately?! She was unhappy! Very unhappy! She had never called the little girl that!
"There's no one named Qing Li here."
Ah Wan said with a somewhat displeased tone and was about to close the door.
Wei Gelin froze and quickly blocked the closing door, saying, "Wait."
Ah Wan frowned. "What is it?"
Wei Gelin paused and said, "We're looking for Lin Qing Li."
When Ming Li opened her room door with her hair in a bird's nest, she saw two young men sitting in the living room. They looked somewhat familiar.
Ming Li narrowed her eyes. Once she clearly saw who they were, she almost wanted to kill the System for the third time. She shot a cold glance at the System and Ah Wan, then slammed the room door shut with a bang.
When the door opened again, the perfect, formidable figure emerged once more.
"What are you doing here again?"
...
An hour later, a large vehicle parked downstairs from Ming Li's residence. A team of staff carried two large boxes into Ming Li's home.
Beside them, Wei Gelin secretly glanced at Ming Li's profile, his earlobes quickly flushing red. He quickly averted his gaze, coughed lightly to cover his actions, and said, "Thank you, Miss Lin, for agreeing to help our company test this game."
Ming Li's expression was blank. "As long as the money is right."
Wei Gelin: ...
Wei Gelin was momentarily speechless, his thousands of words instantly swallowed back.
Han Chen, on the other hand, was somewhat excited. It was his first time playing a game with the formidable figure, and he was quite thrilled!
Once the game pods were installed, the three of them lay inside and began a new round of the horror game.
This game was a horror title that Wei Gelin's company had developed previously and was looking for someone to endorse. Now that they had met Ming Li, Wei Gelin had an idea.
Back in the System space, the System asked, "Host, are we going to stream today? We haven't streamed yet."
