  Ning Shu pulled Li Xinze as she ran through campus. She kept running until she reached the dormitory, where she stopped, panting and bent over, hands pressing down on her knees.

  Li Xinze sprawled out on the ground, his chest fiercely heaving up and down.

  After a long while, Li Xinze’s breathing became even again and he got up from the ground. He looked at Ning Shu and said, “You did that on purpose. You clearly knew that people were following you, but you still insisted on walking.”


  “You didn’t believe me, so I wanted to let you experience it,” said Ning Shu bluntly.

  “If you still have any doubts, you can just tell me frankly. There won’t be any misunderstandings if we talk it out, right?” said Ning Shu sincerely. “I really didn’t do anything unforgivable to you that night.”


  Li Xinze: …


  Why did he always feel so helpless when it came to her?

  “I wasn’t trying to argue about that. It was just that it was so late. It’s not safe for you to be alone at night. If anything happens, you should just tell me. Don’t recklessly do stuff like this yourself,” said Li Xinze.

  Ning Shu immediately said, “It’s fine as long as you don’t have any misunderstandings. In the future, I’ll tell you about everything. Oh, right. You said you knew Boss Long. How do you want to deal with this matter?”


  “Naturally, I’ll go find Boss Long. Boss Long has a collaboration with my company. There’s a TV show that we’re making together.” Li Xinze’s expression was serious as he said, “We can’t just let this go.”


  “Long Shuangshuang’s dad also makes movies and TV shows?” Ning Shu was a little curious.

  “Shooting movies is the fastest way to launder money. There’s also lots of money to be made. Now, the higher-ups’ policies are strict, so many people are starting to go aboveground and whitewash themselves. If they just keep fighting and killing, they’ll be targeted by the higher-ups,” said Li Xinze.

  Ning Shu nodded. “Then, I’ll leave this matter to you. I’m very scared from being followed every day.”


  Li Xinze asked a bit doubtfully, “When did you start to be able to run so fast? Even I couldn’t keep up with you.”


  “It’s the perseverance that comes with a strong will to survive, you understand? It’s the strength that erupts when there’s danger,” said Ning Shu seriously.

  “Since I’m all sweaty, I’ll be going up now.” Ning Shu wiped her sweat as she said to Li Xinze, “You should also go back.”


  Li Xinze nodded and drove away.

  Ning Shu turned and went upstairs. When she arrived at the dormitory, 2333’s voice rang in her mind. “Ning Shu, try to think of a way to get near Yang Yuhui.”


  “Why?”


  “Yang Yuhui’s destiny is about to be exhausted. His system is about to leave him and select a new host,” said 2333. “I want to completely destroy this system now.”


  This was the first time Ning Shu had heard 2333 speak so domineeringly.

  “Does this kind of system hurt the plane?” asked Ning Shu.

  “Of course. This is a type of defective plane that has no way of forming a space with its own laws. By giving all kinds of benefits and conveniences to its host, it makes this world’s laws heap more luck onto its host and through this process steal the fortune and laws of this world.”


  “It’s like a parasite.”


  Ning Shu nodded. Alright, now she was going to find Yang Yuhui and completely destroy that system. That was the real solution to this problem.

  “All I have to do is get close to Yang Yuhui?” asked Ning Shu.

  “No, you have to wait for the system to try to break away from the host before I can take the opportunity to attack his data,” said 2333. “If I attack the system directly, its host will die.”


  “Isn’t it fine even if Yang Yuhui dies?” said Ning Shu.

  2333 said angrily, “I’m just a system. If I cause the death of someone from the task world, I’ll be erased, regardless of whether that person deserved to die or not.”


  “The reason why there are so many restrictions is because we are afraid that the task taker will use their system to do things that are harmful to the plane.”


  Ning Shu comforted 2333, “It’s okay. I won’t be relying on you anyways, so you don’t have to worry about being erased.”


  2333: Scram, scram, scram…
