I just broke up with my boyfriend and then I transmigrated into the world of "The Lost Tomb&quo

"Calming incense? What's in it?" Xie Yuhua asked. This calming incense must contain other ingredients; its effects are almost comparable to sleeping potion. The child is already having nightmares, and this could be harmful to his health in the long run.

"Nothing special, just ordinary calming and sleep aids, like agarwood, lavender, frankincense, and camphor wood powder," Ling Xiao replied. Actually, there's nothing wrong with burning calming incense normally. The problem is when it's paired with the calming tea that Jieyuhua drinks at night, which he also gave her. Neither of them is anything special when used alone, but when used together, they make people sleep so deeply that they can't even notice it.

"Don't use this fragrance anymore, it's bad for your health," Jieyuhua advised.

Ling Xiao nodded and said cooperatively, "If you don't like it, you don't have to use it anymore."

That's how obedient they were.

—A phone vibrated.

Ling Xiao glanced at the number and pressed the answer button. As soon as the call connected, an anxious voice came from the other end: "Sir, the system core has been cracked, but..."

"Speak." Ling Xiao showed no emotion upon hearing the news, but still gently gestured for the researcher to finish speaking.

"Sir, next to you..." The researcher stopped halfway through his sentence, his meaning clear: he wanted Ling Xiao to go somewhere where no one was around.

Ling Xiao glanced at Xie Yuhua, who was quietly drinking coffee and reading the newspaper on the sofa. Her slippers slapped against her feet as she moved, looking very comfortable.

Ling Xiao smiled gently and instructed, "It's alright, go ahead and say it."

The researcher, having received the signal, continued: "From the data we deciphered, we know that 07 had two missions. One was the mission 07 mentioned, which was to find the villain and bind him to the villain, prevent him from turning evil, and help him become a good person. However, for some reason, this mission failed from the very beginning."

Normally, a system that fails a task should be directly recycled or destroyed. The fact that this task bar has remained grayed out suggests that 07 is likely bound to the wrong host, causing the task to fail. Because it cannot be unbound from the wrong host by external force, 07 has not been recycled.

"And the second one?" Ling Xiao paused, his hand holding the spoon still, as if he had finally become interested.

"The second task is..." The researcher hesitated, unsure how to describe it, but fearing he would keep his master waiting too long, he finally mustered his courage and said, "The second task wasn't issued long ago, it was released about a month ago, it's... to take the master back... to work on the new system..."

"Okay, I understand. Is there anything else?" Ling Xiao replied, taking a sip of porridge.

The assistant, oblivious to Ling Xiao's emotional shift, continued, "There's also the experiment on the project. We've already extracted the original solution from your blood and prepared it, but when we injected it into the test subjects as you instructed, all three subjects died without exception."

We can't arrest any more members of the Wang family in the short term; the continuous disappearances will cause unnecessary trouble..."

"Okay," Ling Xiao said and hung up the phone.

Seeing that Ling Xiao had turned off his phone, Xie Yuhua put down her newspaper and asked, "Who were you talking to? You talked for so long."

"Is my darling jealous?" Ling Xiao got up, walked to the sofa, sat down, and put his arm around Xie Yuhua's shoulder as he asked.

Hearing his sudden change in address, Jieyuhua quickly took a sip of coffee to cover his blushing cheeks.

"The researchers in the lab were just giving me a report." Ling Xiao smiled at Xie Yuhua, then casually leaned his head on her shoulder and asked, "Any interesting news today?"

When Jieyuhua heard Lingxiao ask about the news in the newspaper, she also wanted Lingxiao to help her with her opinion. So she said in a more formal tone, "It is said that a new company has just been established, but it is engaged in scientific and technological research and development. This is a good opportunity, but we don't know if it will be successful."

"We really should focus on developing our current technology."
