162 THE SYSTEM HAS BEEN UPDATED
Normally, Bai Chen would only need fifteen to twenty minutes to finish his breakfast. Whether it was in his previous life or in this new world, he was not a slow eater, and he didn’t even care about the rule that he had to chew his food thirty-two times or something before he swallowed it down into his stomach.
Bai Chen was always quick to finish his food, but it took him even more than an hour before he finally finished all the dishes on the table. The fact that all of his dishes were vegetables was one thing, but the way he continued to chat with Zhu Ge at breakfast was another.
The two had just stopped chatting when Bai Chen finally relented by saying that he was going to marry Zhu Ge. Not only did Zhu Ge seem pleased with his decision, and even the system excitedly congratulated him before saying that he didn’t have to worry about being OOC anymore.
Bai Chen could be himself after completing his mission, and that was probably the only good thing that happened to him today. He could even whistle happily as he walked from the garden pavilion to the Jing Pavilion, and he didn’t even care how Zhu Ge followed behind him like a puppy.
‘What puppy? He’s just a horny dog,’ Bai Chen corrected himself as he glanced at the red-robed man.
The hare from the Red Pavilion was indeed very impudent. Not only did he want to be by Bai Chen’s side forever, but he also forced Bai Chen to marry him.
Unfortunately, Bai Chen could only say yes for the sake of his mission, and now he thought about how he could get rid of Zhu Ge after this.
“Where are you going, ChenChen? Do you have any plans today?” Zhu Ge even dared to ask about his agenda even though the man’s status was that of a mere servant.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtYes, Bai Chen still saw the taller man as his servant even after what had happened between them, and he didn’t plan to change his opinion any time soon.
.....
“I want to sleep in the Jing Pavilion all day,” Bai Chen lazily answered the question.
He was indeed lazy because his body was still tired, and that was his original plan when he returned to his palace.
“That’s a good idea,” Zhu Ge nodded as he replied. “I will accompany you to rest in the Jing Pavilion.”
Bai Chen’s steps immediately came to a halt upon hearing Zhu Ge’s bold statement, even Zhu Ge almost bumped into him due to the sudden brake.
Turning his body, he had to look up as he replied to the taller man, “Why do you want to accompany me to the Jing Pavilion? If you are tired, you can rest in your room. You don’t need to work immediately if you are still exhausted after your journey from the Wu Li Empire.”
Bai Chen could understand that Zhu Ge was still tired because the distance between the two empires couldn’t be said to be close, and that was why he wanted to tolerate that man today.
Unfortunately, Zhu Ge was still an ungrateful brat as he replied, “Why should I go to my room when I can join you in your pavilion? I will be your husband, and it’s normal for us to share a room.”
Bai Chen’s face turned red after hearing the man’s confident statement. Yes, he did say that he would marry Zhu Ge, but he was only doing that for the sake of his mission. He was only aiming for the reward, and he even planned to throw away Zhu Ge after this.
{DING!
AN INDICATION OF RULE VIOLATION WAS DETECTED!
-50 POINTS FOR THE HOST
CURRENT POINTS: 200}
Bai Chen almost gasped in surprise when he received the notification from the system. It wasn’t just a notification, but the system notified him that his points had been deducted.
Feeling furious in his heart, the brown-haired Prince immediately questioned the system, ‘Why have my points been deducted, sys? I didn’t even do anything against the rules!’
Bai Chen still remembered the rules that Bai Lang had stated when they only met about a month ago, and he was sure he hadn’t done anything that broke the rules. As such, he planned to fight for his 50 precious points while waiting for the system’s response.
{THE HOST HAS AGREED TO DATE THE CHARACTER ‘ZHU GE,’ BUT THE HOST THEN PLANNED TO DITCH ‘ZHU GE.’ THAT’S A FORM OF RULE VIOLATION, AND THAT’S WHY THE SYSTEM DEDUCTED THE HOST’S POINTS}
The reason spoken by the system was a kind of nonsense in Bai Chen’s ears. Zhu Ge didn’t even agree to be his lover, and the man wanted to be his husband instead. However, the system still saw the two of them as lovers, and Bai Chen was even punished when he planned to dump his ‘lover.’
Bai Chen couldn’t help it, but the system just did whatever it wanted to do without thinking about his sanity, and he would indeed go crazy if he needed to deal with the system for a long time.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm‘So, you really have updated yourself, huh? Now you even have some new rules I can’t break?’ Bai Chen asked the system again when he remembered how the system even gave him a success ratio when he was about to confess to Zhu Ge.
He did see the difference, but he didn’t care because he didn’t expect that the update would affect him so much. However, now that he realized that the system had become more troublesome after the update, he was quite annoyed by it.
{YES, HOST. THE SYSTEM’S CREATOR HAS PERFORMED AN UPDATE, AND NOW THE SYSTEM WILL BE MORE FLEXIBLE REGARDING THE RULES THAT CAN’T BE BROKEN BY THE HOST}
Bai Chen clenched his fists, but before he could snap at the system, someone suddenly wrapped his fists in his warm hands, and Bai Chen finally realized that he was still with Zhu Ge now.
“What’s wrong? You won’t let me sleep with you in your pavilion?” The man wearing the red hanfu asked him while tilting his head, and Bai Chen felt like strangling the man to death right now.
Bai Chen did plan to throw Zhu Ge away, but after losing his precious fifty points, he wouldn’t dare to do anything that could trigger the stingy system again.
“Nothing,” replied the Prince. “You want to accompany me to my pavilion, right? Let’s go. I’m very tired right now, and I just want to lie down on my bed.”
Bai Chen was indeed exhausted because he couldn’t even sleep last night, so he started walking away from the black-haired man without waiting for the man to respond.
Zhu Ge, on the other hand, smiled to himself before bringing his feet to follow the Prince. Just like a docile puppy, he once again walked behind the white-robed Prince, and the Prince didn’t ask him to walk by his side either.
The two of them continued walking toward the Jing Pavilion, and it didn’t take long for them to finally reach the pavilion. Bai Chen was too tired, so he immediately positioned himself on the bed while Zhu Ge stood not far from the bed.
Bai Chen had started to close his eyes, but then the corner of Zhu Ge’s eyes caught something interesting in the room. Raising his eyebrows in amusement, he then opened his mouth and whispered to himself, “It’s good that you keep Wu Jiang close to you, Bai Chen.”
