That night, Ling Xiao had a dream; he dreamt of Qin Feng.

In his dream, Qin Feng was begging for his forgiveness: "I'm sorry, Ling Xiao, please forgive me!"

Ling Xiao was furious upon hearing this: "Forgive you? Forgive you for what? Forgive you for toying with my youth, for playing with my feelings? Or forgive you for abandoning me and marrying someone else?"

Qin Feng hugged him tightly, as if trying to meld him into his very bones: "I have no choice. Her father's company can help me a lot, so I can only ask you to make do for now. Once my company goes public, I'll divorce her and marry you, okay? You stay in this world for now. That woman is crazy; she could find you at any time. I'm afraid she might do something to you..."

Ling Xiao pushed him away, looked up at him in surprise, and said in a trembling voice, "Did you bring me here? Qin Feng, what have you done to me?"

Qin Feng hugged Ling Xiao again and said, "I just want to protect you, really, you have to believe me!"

"Your methods are really sophisticated, Qin Feng. Did you create that system too?" Ling Xiao chuckled to himself, amused that he had fallen in love with something.

"Yes," Qin Feng replied.

"No wonder it's so strange. This broken system cares whether I drink or not, and makes me suffer for ten days if I fall in love. Qin Feng, your lover's methods are still as ruthless as ever!"

"I may be awful, but what can I do when I love you so much? You said you were afraid of pain, and for seven whole years, I never touched you. But I can't bear every day without you by my side. Do you know how I've been living these past few days?"

"You don't touch me, so you love me? What kind of logic is that? I don't want to know how you've lived these past few days, I only know how I've lived these past few days! Qin Feng, I've been living a life worse than death!" Ling Xiao said through gritted teeth.

"Qin Feng, let's end this here! Please let me go back, okay? I'm begging you, I just want a peaceful life. This place isn't for me. I'm afraid of those bugs, and those electric shocks and blood-related things. It really hurts. Qin Feng, please let me go, okay?"

Qin Feng grabbed Ling Xiao by the neck, looking at him with a sinister expression: "Do you know how much effort I put into bringing you into this world? Do you know how much I've sacrificed over the past five years? Between us, only I have the right to give up; you have no choice at all!"

"Just stay in this world and wait for me to marry you. If that crazy woman finds you, I can't protect you!" With that, Qin Feng disappeared from Ling Xiao's dream.

Ling Xiao woke up with a start. He ran to the bathroom and saw the palm print on his neck. He didn't know how Qin Feng had done it. He felt like he had never understood Qin Feng. He suddenly remembered that Qin Feng had always been like this. He would do anything to get what he wanted.

[Host, are you happy to see me today?]

'Are you Qin Feng?'

It's me, but not entirely. Sometimes when I'm not around, that's the system that's actually set up for you.

'No wonder'

Why are you suddenly deciding to confront me?

"You're treating that fat guy differently now, and I'm jealous!"

'Isn't my attitude towards Wu Xie even different?'

[This is different; Fatty Wang and Fatty Sun look too alike.]

'Didn't you set this up?'

What are you thinking? I don't have that kind of power; this is the real world of Tomb Raider Chronicles.

'what? '

[I discovered this world by accident. For the past five years, I've been researching how to enter it, but the technology is still immature. I can only add a little bit to your health. I can't add a lot at once, otherwise you'll be discovered by the Heavenly Dao, and then we'll all be finished. Moreover, if you don't want to be rejected by this world, you must have a bloodline...]

"So you planned to marry Miss Cheng five years ago?"

Yes, but I must make sure you are safe.

'Then tell me, what is safety in your eyes? Is it only safety if you don't die?'

【…】

"Qin Feng, all I want is to live happily, do you understand?"

To prevent that woman from finding you, I've deleted all your information from this world...

'Where are my parents? Where's Fatty? What did you do to them?'

Are you still thinking about that fat guy?

Don't worry, they are safe. You just need to wait for me to marry you.

[That’s right]

Starting today, the system will no longer assign you tasks. It will only give you some skills and health points as support. To stay alive, you must stay close to the main character.

Also, from now on, I'll be the only one talking to you like this.

Are you happy, my darling?

You really disgust me.

Haha, you're so cute like this! It's so hard not to kiss you!

'abnormal'

Okay, baby, I have something to do, I have to go now. Oh, I forgot to tell you, I love you even more with red hair.

Looking at himself in the mirror, Ling Xiao muttered, "Making solemn vows without considering the consequences, and not considering the consequences, so what?"

Ling Xiao walked out of the bathroom and found the three of them waiting for him outside the door.

"Do you guys need to use the restroom?" Ling Xiao asked the three of them blankly.

Do the main characters always go to the bathroom together? He couldn't help but wonder.

"Who's inside?" the young man asked.

"Who's there?" Ling Xiao turned his head to look at the bathroom. Could there be a ghost in there?

"Xiao, who choked you? Tell Fatty, and I'll teach him a lesson!" Fatty said with heartache when he saw the choking marks on Ling Xiao's neck.

"You mean this? I made it myself. I might have eaten something unclean today, and I felt like throwing up but couldn't. I pushed too hard, don't worry," Ling Xiao patted the fat man's shoulder.

Just as Wu Xie was about to say something, Ling Xiao deliberately yawned and said, "I'm so sleepy, let's go to sleep," and then walked towards the hospital bed.

As the four lay down to sleep, Ling Xiao said to Wu Xie, "My little Third Master, let me leave the hospital tomorrow! I've found a way to prolong my life; staying here is just a waste of time."

"Really? You've found a way to prolong your life? What is it?" Wu Xie asked, and the fat man and the young man seemed to want to know as well.

"Heavenly secrets cannot be revealed," Ling Xiao said mysteriously.

However, the three of them remembered what the young man had said earlier, so they all kept quiet about the matter.

Wu Xie looked at Xiao Ge, who nodded. So Wu Xie said, "You can be discharged, but you have to come back to Wu Shan Ju with me."

Ling Xiao thought about it and, since he had nowhere else to stay anyway, agreed.

The next day, the four of them set off together for Wushan Residence. When they arrived, Wu Sansheng was also at Wushan Residence.

"Third uncle, why are you here?"

"There's something I need to tell you," Wu Sansheng said to Wuxie.

Ling Xiao glanced at Wu Sansheng, then at the young man, and said, "Perhaps, Uncle Wu is here to see the silk scroll."

The young man looked at Ling Xiao and understood what Ling Xiao meant.

"Haha, Brother Ling is really clever!" Wu Sansheng laughed.

"I wonder how Pan Zi is doing?" Ling Xiao asked, seemingly concerned.

“Panzi is going home to recover from this injury. But Brother Ling, I heard your injury is quite serious, it seems…” Wu Sansheng was interrupted by Ling Xiao before he could finish speaking.

Don't worry, I'll outlive you.

"Haha, then I can rest assured." Wu Sansheng was not annoyed and gestured for Wuxie to take out the silk book.

Ling Xiao turned his head slightly and found that Xiao Ge was no longer there. He then turned back and smiled slightly at Wu Xie, saying, "This silk scroll is not on your nephew."

Wu Sansheng knew, of course, that the silk scroll was on the fat man, but he was just thinking of having his nephew ask the fat man to take it out. To put it bluntly, he was using Wu Xie as a pawn, but Ling Xiao was not going to give him that opportunity.

"If you want to see the silk scroll, you'll have to ask Fatty for it! Right, Fatty?" Ling Xiao's words were quite strange. Why would Wu Sansheng possibly ask Fatty for the silk scroll?

Wu Sansheng understood what Ling Xiao meant and said to the fat man, "Brother Fatty, could you please take out that silk scroll for a look?"

The fat man didn't mince words and took it out: "Let me make this clear beforehand, this treasure is mine! You can't take it away!"

"Just for a look," Wu Sansheng said with a smile as he accepted the gift.
