Ten diligent days: the fields are still

Yuan Lai walked a little further away, stood under the Metasequoia tree, and looked towards his former boyhood home.

The three rooms, the kitchen, and the multi-purpose room were completely destroyed, their appearance unclear. However, the flowers in the flowerbeds were still in full bloom, the swings and fences had been cleaned with red envelopes, and the lotus flowers in the pond were growing wildly, covering the entire surface.

Hongbao took a broom and swept the debris on the ground to the side of the road, then led the puppies to the pond. He sat alone on the swing with a group of puppies at his feet.

"Stop running around!"

Once things change, people are no longer the same.

The warm wind blew, the weeds swayed, revealing a trace of the former bustling scene.

"Hey, look, there's a handsome guy sitting there! Who is he?"

"He's holding a dog. Is he Haohao's friend?"

"Are we going up there?"

"No, no, we'll just take two photos here."

"Well, come over there. The light is just right now. I'm sure I'll take a beautiful picture of you."

Yuan Lai heard the girl's voice and came out from behind the tree, scaring the two of them.

"Oh my god, you walk without making any sound."

Yuan Lai asked, "There's no one here, why are you still taking pictures?"

A girl looked at Yuan Lai warily, "Who cares? What are you doing? I can take pictures whenever I want."

Yuan Lai took out his phone and put on a kind smile. "I also came here to take pictures after watching the show, but I can't take good pictures myself, so I'd like you to take one for me."

"Oh, you're a fan too! Why didn't you say so? We are too, but we've been following the show since the beginning. Which episode did you see?"

Yuan Lai thought about it and randomly said an issue, "It should be the twenty-fifth issue."

"The twenty-fifth issue, that's when we got our business license."

A girl came over and took Yuan Lai's phone to take a photo for her. "It doesn't matter if you joined the show late. We don't have much else but a lot of material. You still have a lot to see! But we have something to tell you. The post-production editing can be messy sometimes, and it might make you feel uncomfortable, but everyone here is very nice."

Yuan Lai nodded, "I remember it."

The girl took a few nice photos for Yuan Lai, then pulled out a small blue luggage tag from her pocket and handed it to her. "Nice to meet you. This is a souvenir for you. We customized it online ourselves, it's not worth much."

"Thank you."

Yuan Lai lifted up the luggage tag and placed it on the same surface as the dusty doorplate on the wall.

One big, one small, complement each other.

"No. 58 Houdoumen, goodbye."

After returning to school, Yuan Lai hid the luggage tag in the outermost layer of the suitcase, then climbed onto the bed and glanced at Lin Tingting's empty chat box.

It’s different when you’re a boss. You’re so busy all day that you don’t even have time to chat.

Looking down were various group chats. Yuan Lai saw that Ren He had sent her an emoticon package expressing tiredness in the morning.

Yuan Lai replied, "How is Wu Jiahe doing?"

Ren He quickly replied, "Everything is going according to plan."

Yuan Lai asked again, "Do you still have time to chat with people?"

Ren He replied, "Ah, so boring! I'm so bored!"

"That's right. I've been pretty bored lately. The entertainment industry has been pretty quiet lately, with no gossip. My boss hasn't given us any assignments, so this part-time job seems like a non-starter."

Ren He replied, "How about you turn on the video and I'll show you my work environment."

"Sure, sure." Yuan Lai also wanted to see what the world in the book was like.

When the video opened, Yuan Lai saw Ren He soaking in the bathtub with his upper body exposed, with nothing around him.

"You..." It's hard not to say it was intentional.

Yuan Lai was about to hang up the phone.

Ren He's anxious voice came over, "Don't hang up, don't hang up, I'm wearing clothes!"

In order to prove himself, Ren He walked out of the bathtub and spun around to show himself.

She was indeed wearing clothes, but the color was flesh-colored, making it seem as if she was not wearing any.

Yuan Lai closed his eyes, hoping it was just an illusion. "Why are you dressed like this?"

Ren He sat back in the bathtub, feeling quite helpless. "I can't help it. Wu Jiahe chose this. She likes taking baths, so I ended up like this."

Yuan Lai saw a hazy fog behind Ren He in the shaky video, as if there was a curtain between them. "What system did you bind Wu Jiahe to? How did she become one with the Word Spirit?"

Ren He fixed his phone at the front of the bathtub, then reached out and swiped it from behind, and the background gradually became clear.

The second brother, wearing a floral shirt, was dancing in the live broadcast room when Wu Jiahe walked in with a plate of stir-fried bitter melon. "Luke, it's time to eat."

The second brother brought the bitter melon over and showed it to the camera, "Hey babies, next I'm going to challenge myself to eat bitter melon!"

The second brother closed his eyes, picked up a large piece of bitter melon with chopsticks and put it into his mouth. He chewed it for a long time, and from the initial wrinkles, he gradually began to enjoy it. "Xiao Wu, I didn't expect your cooking skills are quite good. This bitter melon doesn't taste bitter at all!"

Wu Jiahe seemed disappointed when he heard this comment. He closed the door and returned to the kitchen. Looking at the various seasonings and ingredients on the table, he looked up at the sky and said, "System, system, where did you put them? I've almost made a full banquet, and my second brother gave it all positive reviews. When will I pass the test?"

Ren He's mechanical voice then rang out, "Hello, host. Since you've already failed N times, you will be subject to a taste penalty for the next week. If you receive a negative review, the time will be reduced accordingly."

"Ahhh!" Wu Jiahe collapsed, "It's too hard! It's so hard for me! I don't want to be a chef!"

Yuan Lai watched for a long time. Wu Jiahe had been researching various dark dishes in the kitchen, including but not limited to stewing mango and lamb intestines together, frying durian and peppercorns together, stir-frying ginger slices, dragon fruit and fish head together, etc.

"Is it still possible to enter this kitchen?"

Ren He moved the camera of his phone to his face. "She is connected to the food system. She is a natural born chef. Her golden finger means she has unlimited fresh ingredients and a variety of seasonings."

“But the task is to get a bad review, otherwise it will rebound on you.”

"As for the word spirit, it is originally the living being of fallen words, and this book is it."

Yuan Lai tried hard to understand what Ren He meant, which was that Ren He used the word spirit as a carrier to reconstruct the world in Wu Jiahe's book, allowing Wu Jiahe to find hope of life while passing the test and being saved.

If it weren't for Wu Jiahe's experience, if he hadn't lost the will to live, he wouldn't have been in a coma in the hospital for so long.

But this system is too different.

The skills mastered are contrary to the tasks to be completed. Is this something a human can do?

Yuan Lai questioned, "Is it really that difficult? When will we be able to pass it?"

Ren He felt wronged. "There is no free lunch in the world. I wanted to save her life. This little effort is nothing."

Well, the power is in his hands, he can do whatever he wants, and she has no right to interfere. Yuan Lai couldn't help but worry for Wu Jiahe.
