[After the system update, the following new system rule is issued: After the host completes the two worlds of the debt repayment time travel mission, the system will take a 30% cut of the profits from all subsequent mission worlds as a handling fee and operating cost.]

[I know, I agree, let's move on to the next step.] Gu Xixi couldn't wait. Shen Qingyan had already waived that 30% for her, so she had already made a huge profit.

She feels much more at ease now that the deductions are deducted.

[Okay, after the system update, in addition to the previously available worlds for quest travel, two more worlds have been added where you can travel with a supermarket to complete quests: a 2D game world (random) and a vampire world.]

[The next two rounds of debt repayment world missions will be conducted consecutively. Only after completing the missions can you return to the modern world. Please select two worlds where you can travel with your supermarket to complete the missions.]

Gu Xixi quickly racked her brains, adding the Qin Shi Huang era (which she hadn't done the missions for yet), the virtual world, the Barbie world, the wasteland world, and the random world, making a total of 7.

Wasteland is too bleak, so it's out of the question. Virtual worlds are too mentally taxing, and using them for debt repayment tasks would be too painful. So her preferred worlds are Barbie World, the ancient era, or random worlds.

Gu Xixi nodded: [Okay, then let's set the system nickname to "System Bro." I still prefer that. So, System Bro, if I choose a random world, is it possible that I might bump into other system mission takers in a certain dimension?]

[The system nickname "Tongzi Ge" has been set and is now active. The random world is randomly generated by the system and cannot be confirmed, but this possibility cannot be ruled out.] The system's voice was extremely cold, exactly the same as Gu Tingchen's.

But what it said touched her heart...

[Alright, then I'll choose between the ancestral era and the random world. I can decide which one to go to first before I travel through time, since they're all connected, so the order doesn't make much difference.]

[Yes, the system will provide you with background information on both worlds in four days. After four days, please be sure to choose the order in which you can take the supermarket with you to complete missions. Once chosen, it cannot be changed.]

"Understood, you can go now." Gu Xixi snapped out of her daze and realized that her mother couldn't stay still. While she was in a daze, she had started tidying up the room.

The sudden onslaught of memories of death caused Gu Xixi to instinctively get out of bed to tidy up herself, afraid of being nagged and spanked by her mother. However, she only realized halfway there that her mother was now happily tidying up for her.

There was a feeling that she had finally found something to contribute... Gu Xixi chuckled, rushed behind her mother and hugged her, her voice becoming increasingly affectionate.

"Mom, whose hardworking and brave mom is this? I love you so much, Mom!

"Alright, stop joking around. I'll get down to business with you once you're done with your work." Gu's mother was very happy, but she pretended to be serious and pushed Gu Xixi back to sit down. "Be serious."

Mrs. Gu glanced at the door, and not hearing any voices from across the hall, she asked anxiously, "You've already decided on Shen Qingyan? Well, that's obvious, he really is a good guy, and we have no objections, after all, this is your first relationship..."

"I just want to ask, sigh, Mom is worried about you two. As your own mother, all I can say is don't get too involved, always leave yourself some room for maneuver. Your future looks good right now, even if Shen Qingyan doesn't come back... you'll still have the strength to live a good life, do you understand?"

The more Gu's mother thought about it, the more confused she became. It was easy to persuade someone to talk about it, but she knew how difficult it was to actually do it, especially with first love.

She liked Shen Qingyan, but she loved her daughter even more.

Therefore, I must plan for my daughter in everything I do.

“Mom, I understand what you mean, I really understand. People are always themselves. A woman’s infatuation is something that cannot be explained, but a man’s infatuation can be explained. I know what I’m doing.”

Gu Xixi hugged her mother and snuggled against her.

"And I believe in Shen Qingyan. He survived such a difficult time. It was just three years in the strange world."

He definitely can.

She became increasingly uneasy as she spoke; the existence of a world of strange and supernatural beings was actually more dangerous than Shen Qingyan's missions over the past few thousand years...

She couldn't say for sure either.

"Okay, okay, it's good that you remember." Gu's mother didn't want to say more, but the stone that had just been put down in her heart was lifted up again, stuck in her throat, making her feel uncomfortable.

She was anxious.

"Mom, I really will do my best, and I love you and our country very much, so don't worry. If you have nothing to do, go to the study and sit down to read. The system has just been successfully updated, and I have some new information to report."

“I never thought you’d become a workaholic one day. Perfect timing, Mom has something to report to you.” Mrs. Gu got up, and the mother and daughter headed straight for the small study in the bedroom.

Gu Xixi sent the situation to Chu Feng via text message. After receiving Chu Feng's reply, Gu's mother began to report.

“Our supermarkets have already opened in two provinces and cities. We originally planned to expand further next year, since your dad and I simply couldn't manage to run them all ourselves… But a few days ago, we were invited to a meeting by the leaders of Tong City, who said they would provide us with a convenient procedure process…”

"Your dad and I really can't refuse. We'll probably be so busy we won't have a moment to breathe. If you need anything, just call us. Our supermarket is the foundation of our family business."

“Okay, Mom, that’s what I was thinking too. You’re all too busy… why don’t you hire more people and train your own core team?”

……

Half an hour later, there was a knock on Gu Xixi's door, and the mother and daughter came to their senses.

"Please come in," Gu Xixi called out. The door was pushed open by Gu's father, who looked puzzled. "What are you two doing in there? What have you been talking about for so long?"

“Xiao Yan and I are tired of waiting. Xiao Yan has already washed up, but his hair is still messy. Xi Xi, you can take him shopping tomorrow to buy other clothes for all seasons, personal items, and get a haircut while you’re at it. I’m tired, Nana, let’s go back and rest.”

Mr. Gu clasped his hands together and kept bowing, and Ms. Chen Anna, Mrs. Gu, then smiled and followed him out.

Gu Xixi accompanied them out, watched them leave, and then looked back at Shen Qingyan across the hall, "My system update was successful. The mission world that allows you to travel with a supermarket has added a random world. Maybe I'll run into you."

"Before you feel yourself being pulled into the instance, be sure to say you want to eat fish, that way I'll know. If you suddenly disappear..."

"Okay, it's time for your training. Get some rest. I'm going to familiarize myself with this world. It's in the villa area." Shen Qingyan walked downstairs, but turned back after a few steps.
