Quick Travel: Destiny for Thirty Lifetimes

Not long after they had lunch, Kang Ci finally rested. He was placed on the bed in a guest room on the first floor. When he woke up, there was no one in the room.

At this time in the hall, Meng Qingjie took a deck of cards and insisted on dragging Lian Qingyang and Jiang Yuchen to play Landlord. The three of them played four rounds. Meng Qingjie called the landlord three times, and he lost all three rounds without exception. In one round, Lian Qingyang was the landlord, and he and Jiang Yuchen were unable to win.

He had four thin sticky notes of different colors stuck to his face, and he was touching cards with one hand and grabbing cards with the other, while he kept shouting, "I want to be the landlord. If I can't be the landlord, I'll just rob. Anyway, I can't win no matter what I do."

Although they were arguing anxiously, his expression was very excited. It was obvious that he did not take the loss seriously. He was just having fun. The spiritual thread wrapped around him was very restless, and it wanted to play this card for him.

The four people on the other side thought that Landlord was too low-level, so they played Mahjong online on their mobile phones.

The scene was very chaotic for a while. Kang Ci walked to the door and stood there holding it, watching the two groups playing intensely with a gloomy look in his eyes.

Xiao Jia and the others were closer to Kang Ci. After a game, he put down his phone and looked up to see Kang Ci. Kang Ci was looking at Lian Qingyang, wondering what he was thinking.

Xiao Jia was the first to stand up and call out to him, "Brother Ci, how are you feeling? We left some food for you, eat some first."

The other three also stood up when they heard the noise. Xiaoyi and Xiaobing went to the kitchen to serve the meal, while Xiaojia and Xiaoding went over to support him.

Noticing the gazes of Lian Qingyang and Jiang Yuchen, he raised his hand and gently brushed away their outstretched hands, smiling weakly: "I'm not that weak yet, I can just walk on my own. You guys can go about your business. Thank you for sending me to the room earlier."

Xiao Jia waved his hand, indicating that it was nothing: "Brother Ci, you saved our lives, and we didn't do anything. Go eat now."

Lian Qingyang then stood up and walked over, looking at Kang Ci with concern: "Is Xiaoci okay?"

Kang Ci raised the corner of his mouth and was about to answer when he heard a cold snort and the system sound rang out.

[Jiang Yuchen's favorability level is -5, and the current favorability level is -30.]

Kang Ci's smile froze. What's going on with Jiang Yuchen?

[Based on the plot and the reality, Jiang Yuchen probably doesn't like people who are too weak. He lowers his favorability when you appear weak.]

He was just about to suppress his smile, straighten his back and act nonchalant when he heard the system announcement.

[Lian Qingyang's favorability increased by 10, and the current favorability is 18.]

Kang Ci: ...

Based on the plot and the reality, Lian Qingyang seems to really like the delicate and frail Little White Flower. His affection level increases when you act weak.

Kang Ci gritted his teeth and squeezed out a sentence: "Brother Qing, I'm fine, just a little hungry. I'll go eat first." He simply bypassed the two of them and went to eat first. If he didn't eat, he would really lie on the ground.

[I think the last two words are quite accurate. I am actually a monkey, right?]

The system spoke calmly after a while.

[According to the information I've consulted, the host isn't a monkey, but rather shares a common ancestor with monkeys, evolving from ancient primates. This can be traced back to...]

[Shut up, you are the monkey, I mean they are making fun of me!!]

Lian Qingyang couldn't hold it in any longer. He rubbed his face. When Jiang Yuchen saw him, he asked, "What's wrong? Does your face feel uncomfortable?"

Lian Qingyang frowned and shook his head: "I'm a little sleepy, I'm going to take a nap first."

Meng Qingjie had been watching the excitement, but when it ended, he felt bored. He didn't even force Qingyang to play cards when he didn't want to. He put away his cards and said to the two of them, "I'm going to rest too. Captain and Qingge, you should rest well too."

Bian Chao closed his eyes slightly and carefully felt the scene in the hall. When he used his mental power to scan the three people outside the door, he felt that something was wrong with Kang Ci's mental power, so he focused on attacking him.

When Kang Ci stood in front of Lian Qingyang, Meng Qingjie was also beside him. His originally quiet mind suddenly became agitated. Bian Chao used his mental power to scan and found that Kang Ci's mental power was fluctuating strangely. Before he could analyze it carefully, Meng Qingjie went upstairs.

No, Meng Qingjie went up to the third floor, walked to his door, and then there was a knock on the door.

Meng Qingjie knocked three times and pushed the door open. Seeing Bian Chao's eyes open, he closed the door, took a few steps forward, and suddenly stopped. His face was full of excitement. "I knew you were awake. Let me tell you, you have no idea how good I was when we were playing Landlord just now..."

Although Lian Qingyang seemed approachable, he actually didn't like people chattering around him. Meng Qingjie was once beaten with a rattan stick by him, and he stopped chattering in his ear since then.

Not to mention Jiang Yuchen, who barely said a word and barely listened, so he didn't want to get into trouble.

As for Kang Ci and his friends A, B, C, and D, Meng Qingjie was not willing to interact with anyone except Xiao Bing.

So the task of listening fell on the new team member Bian Chao. Bian Chao tilted his head and listened to his gesticulating description. He really didn't feel annoyed, and even the corners of his mouth rose a little unconsciously.

More spiritual threads began to wrap around Meng Qingjie dependently, without any aggressiveness. Instead, it made Meng Qingjie feel that the person in front of him was getting closer and closer, and his liking for Bian Chao was growing.

There were quite a few rooms on the first floor, and the four people, A, B, C, and D, shared two rooms each, so the remaining rooms were more than enough for the three of them. Seeing Meng Qingjie going up to the third floor under the pretext of resting, Lian Qingyang said something to Kang Ci and was about to find a room on the first floor to rest for a while. As a result, Jiang Yuchen grabbed his wrist without saying a word and took him up to the second floor.

"What's wrong?" Lian Qingyang obediently let Jiang Yuchen pull him into a guest room on the second floor.

Jiang Yuchen stared at Lian Qingyang gravely for a while before he slumped his shoulders and gently rested his head on Lian Qingyang's shoulder. He said dejectedly, "You always call me by my full name, and you call others by names that are very intimate. He is so weak that he can't protect you."

Lian Qingyang looked confused: "Huh?"

The head leaning on his shoulder swayed slowly from side to side, and the hair swept back and forth on his neck, causing him to shrink his neck and stretch out his hands to push the person and beg for mercy: "Then can I call you Xiao Chen? Brother Xiao Chen?"

Jiang Yuchen's body stiffened. He looked up at Lian Qingyang and then went to the bathroom.

Lian Qingyang leaned against the door, shuddering as he recalled Jiang Yuchen's gaze on him. "I didn't do anything." His gaze, hiss.

Xiaojiu's voice rang out in his mind at the right moment: "After all, he's still a strong and energetic college student. He's at an age where he gets easily excited. It's normal."

Before they entered the villa, Xiaojiu went to explore the surrounding area. It felt that there might be mutant animals nearby, so it went to look for them first.

I guess he has time to pay attention to him now that he is back. Lian Qingyang sighed: You are the system and I am the system. It feels like you can do the task independently of me.

Xiaojiu didn't enter the villa. He drove the creatures he had caught to the backyard, then lay down like a big boss and raised his head. "That won't do. The master won't be tempted by me. When are we going to leave? I'll give you some toys."

Lian Qingyang walked to the bed and sat down, then lay down with his head tilted back, listening to the sound of water in the bathroom. He yawned and replied slowly: If nothing unexpected happens, let's do it tomorrow.
