Quick Transmigration: Passerby A Gets Entangled with the Male Lead

Although Jiang Youbai was occasionally exchanging a few words with others, his gaze never left He Zhiyao.

When he caught a glimpse of He Zhiyao's delicate face flushed with pink, his heart skipped a beat. He quickly called over a waiter and asked him to bring a refreshing glass of juice.

"Are you alright?" Jiang Youbai gently handed the juice to He Zhiyao and asked with concern.

He Zhiyao gently shook her head, but her eyes seemed somewhat unfocused, as if veiled by a thin layer of mist.

Seeing this, Jiang Youbai understood that He Zhiyao was probably not good at drinking.

So, he smiled and said to everyone, "Have a good time, everyone. All expenses today will be on my tab!" As soon as he finished speaking, he took He Zhiyao's hand and led her away from the noisy private room.

After stepping out of the private room, He Zhiyao took a deep breath and thought to herself: I am definitely fine, my body is just a little out of control, but my mind is perfectly clear!

Thinking of this, she turned her head slightly, blinked her big eyes at Jiang Youbai, and asked softly, "Are we really leaving so soon?"

In Jiang Youbai's eyes, He Zhiyao was incredibly cute and adorable at this moment.

He couldn't help but cough twice to cover up his inner turmoil, and then replied gently, "That's right! I said I'd only stay for a short while, and I meant it. Didn't I say that?"

Upon hearing this, He Zhiyao's face blossomed into a radiant smile, as beautiful and captivating as a spring flower.

Without hesitation, she gave Jiang Youbai a thumbs up and praised, "Yes, that's great!"

Seeing this, Jiang Youbai smiled and reached out to support the still slightly swaying He Zhiyao.

As He Zhiyao and Jiang Youbai passed through the spacious and bright hall, a crisp notification sound suddenly rang in her mind:

[Ding-dong~ Side quest issued: Protect Gu Qing from disfigurement. Quest points: 100.]

The sudden sound startled He Zhiyao slightly, and she involuntarily murmured, "Side quest..."

Her voice was so soft, like a breeze rustling through leaves, that it was almost imperceptible.

However, at that moment, Jiang Youbai, who was standing to the side, stepped forward, trying to hear what He Zhiyao was muttering, but there was no sound.

Meanwhile, deep within He Zhiyao's mind, System 686 was anxiously pacing back and forth, urgently shouting: [Host, host, you can't say it, you absolutely can't say it!]

Hearing the system's warning in her mind, He Zhiyao asked, full of doubt, "Why can't I say?"

Before she could finish speaking, a warm and strong arm gently wrapped around her shoulder. Jiang Youbai asked tenderly and with concern, "What can't you say?"

He Zhiyao looked up at Jiang Youbai's handsome face, her lips slightly parted, about to answer him, but she only managed to utter two words—"That's right~"—before she suddenly heard the system burst into tears in her mind.

Annoyed by the system's antics, He Zhiyao snapped impatiently at the system in her mind, "Shut up!"

This roar not only silenced the system instantly, but also startled Jiang Youbai, who was standing right next to it. He pursed his lips slightly, thinking that he had only asked casually and hadn't said anything!

Her host was always someone who could drink a thousand cups without getting drunk; her alcohol tolerance was extraordinary! But who would have thought that after arriving in this world, she would get so drunk that she passed out after just one cup of wine?

System 686 spoke cautiously: "Host, look at that person standing about ninety degrees in front of you. As long as he's not disfigured, your mission will be considered a complete success."

He Zhiyao listened to the system's words and looked in that direction in a daze. She immediately saw Gu Qing standing to the side talking to someone.

She was thinking that she had to hurry over and protect Gu Qing, so she struggled to take a step forward.

However, she couldn't move when she tried to take a step.

It turned out that Jiang Youbai had held her tightly, making it impossible for her to move at all.

"Let me go!" He Zhiyao twisted her body and said in a coquettish voice.

Jiang Youbai couldn't figure out what He Zhiyao was trying to do for a moment. Seeing her resisting so fiercely, he loosened his grip a little.

Unexpectedly, once she let go, He Zhiyao, like a roly-poly toy that had lost its balance, wobbled and stumbled to the side.

He Zhiyao kept muttering, "Side quest... protect him..."

Jiang Youbai's attention was originally focused on He Zhiyao, but when she saw the direction He Zhiyao was walking, she realized that Gu Qing was over there.

He disregarded everything else and rushed forward to support He Zhiyao, trying to hear clearly what she was muttering.

When Jiang Youbai heard He Zhiyao repeatedly mentioning the mission and the need to protect Gu Qing, a ruthless glint flashed in the depths of her eyes.

Jiang Youbai reached out and grabbed He Zhiyao's slender wrist tightly, determined not to let her leave so easily again.

The system was completely dumbfounded and at a loss.

Why is it happening like that?

Why was the side quest released at this particular time?

Why does it insist on telling the host Gu Qing's location?

Isn't this just asking for trouble?

The more it thought about it, the more it felt incredibly stupid, and it wanted to slap itself a few times.

If the male protagonist becomes aware of the mission, causing him to awaken his consciousness, that would be a huge problem.

At that time, I'm afraid my pitiful points won't be enough to cover the losses!

Thinking of this, it glanced at its few remaining points with a heavy heart, feeling heartbroken. It couldn't help but reach out and gently stroke the numbers, as if they were priceless treasures.

Just then, He Zhiyao glared impatiently at Jiang Youbai and shouted, "What are you doing?! Let me go!"

She still has a mission to complete!

By the way, what is her mission?

He Zhiyao's mind was a complete mess.

Protect Gu Qing.

Gu Qing.

Where is Gu Qing?

Jiang Youbai didn't want to argue with the drunk He Zhiyao, and just told him not to even think about letting her go to Gu Qing's place.

"We should go home now," Jiang Youbai said softly with a smile, but there was no smile in her eyes.

At the same time, he subtly led He Zhiyao away from Gu Qing.

"Oh, okay, let's go home then." He Zhiyao nodded dazedly and followed Jiang Youbai a few steps forward.

But then, as if suddenly remembering something, she abruptly stopped and shouted, "No! I can't go home now, I have to go protect him!"
