Yes.
...
Qin Yu was utterly confused when she heard the news. Why would Consort Ling want to see me? Are we that close?
Lan Yi: ...
Lan Yi paused before speaking, "Consort, Consort Ling is your half-sister... "
Qin Yu: ...Oh, I forgot.
He truly forgot, as he wasn't Shangguan Ming Li.
Lan Yi: Consort, His Highness wants you in the front hall.
Alright, let's go.
Meanwhile.
Qin Ruxue was leisurely sipping tea in the reception hall of Prince Yu's mansion, at least that's how it appeared on the surface.
Qin Ruxue: Why did you ask me to come here?
Strategy System: Host, this is a mission assigned by the main system, just follow it.
Qin Ruxue: ...
Just as Qin Ruxue was about to say something more to the system, a man walked in through the door, instantly stunning her.
Seeing Qin Ruxue staring at him, unblinking, Ming Li frowned almost imperceptibly and said, "Why is Consort Ling staring at this king? Does she want to give the male lead a cuckold?"
This idea is good.
At this moment, an electronic voice sounded in Qin Ruxue's mind: Random mission: Conquer Qin Yu.
Qin Ruxue: ...What did you say!
The Strategy System patiently repeated, "Random mission: Conquer Qin Yu. Upon reaching 100% favorability with Qin Yu, you will receive 40 points."
Qin Ruxue: Didn't you tell me to get rid of him? Why am I supposed to conquer him now?
Strategy System: This is a mission from the main system, this system does not know.
Ming Li, who had heard the conversation between Qin Ruxue and the Strategy System clearly, said: ...Is its main system the same as your main system? Why does it feel like there's a familiar aura about it.
The system scanned and nodded affirmatively, "No, Host Great. I just scanned it and found that the Strategy System is a second-hand system, placed in the plane by someone to absorb the plane's fortune."
Ming Li raised an eyebrow, "Absorb the plane's fortune?"
The system nodded its little head, "Yes, Host Great."
Qin Ruxue stood up from her seat, a flash of astonishment in her eyes, and subconsciously said, "Prince Yu."
Ming Li: "What business does Consort Ling have with this king?"
Qin Ruxue: "I came to see my sister. No, actually, I came to conquer you."
As soon as Qin Ruxue finished speaking, a pleasant female voice sounded from the doorway, "Oh? What business does Consort Ling have with this consort?"
Qin Ruxue: ...This is the legendary 'speak of the devil and he shall appear'? One really shouldn't mention Cao Cao casually.
Qin Ruxue's face immediately broke into a smile, and she walked towards Qin Yu, about to take her hand, "Sister, I..."
Qin Yu took a step back, evading Qin Ruxue's outstretched hand, "What business does Consort Ling have with this consort?"
The smile on Qin Ruxue's lips stiffened, and she instantly put on a sorrowful expression, intentionally or unintentionally glancing at Ming Li, and began her performance, "Sister, I..."
Before Qin Ruxue could finish speaking, she was interrupted by Lan Yi, who walked in from outside the door, "Consort, the National Master has arrived."
Ming Li raised an eyebrow, cast a faint glance at Qin Ruxue, and a playful curve appeared at the corner of his lips.
Yo! Everyone's here, we can gather around and play mahjong.
