Chapter 45 System Upgrade
Jiang Linlin stormed back into the room and saw Xie Guodong lying on the bed like a dead fish, completely unconcerned about her. She was furious and for the first time spoke to him harshly: "You flirted with Qin Yingxue, and it was Qin Dajiang who broke your nose?"
Xie Guodong lay on the bed pretending to be dead.
He knew he was in the wrong, and Jiang Linlin had only been married a few days ago; he hadn't gotten tired of her yet and didn't want the two of them to have a falling out.
"Xie Guodong, your silence means you agree. If you're still so devoted to Qin Yingxue, why did you marry me in the first place?" Jiang Linlin became even angrier when he ignored her, and her voice rose a few decibels.
Xie Guodong remained silent, his eyes closed as if he were dead.
Jiang Linlin felt her heart sink when she saw his attitude.
She turned her back to him in a huff, secretly calling out to the system: "System...System, are you there?"
She realized that men are unreliable and that in the end, she had to rely on herself.
"Commander is here." A familiar mechanical voice came through.
Jiang Linlin felt tears welling up in her eyes. She asked excitedly, "Where did you go just now? I was facing off against Qin Yingxue, but you weren't there."
"Host, I'm sorry, the system just went to upgrade."
"The system can be upgraded?" Jiang Linlin's eyes lit up. "System, will you be even more powerful after the upgrade?"
"Yes." The system took the opportunity to encourage, "As long as the host completes more tasks to accumulate points, making the host as beautiful as a flower and stunningly beautiful, immortality is not a dream."
"System, you're amazing!" Jiang Linlin was immediately eager to try it after hearing that it could grant her immortality and make her more beautiful. "I want to become even more beautiful, even more beautiful than Qin Yingxue. How many points do I need?"
"." The system spat out a string of cold numbers.
"One million?" Jiang Linlin looked at the system as if it had gone mad. "Are you kidding me? Killing Li Jianhong only gives 500 points, but killing that bastard Zhou Xiafei and her bastard child will cost me 10,000 points. System, are you doing this on purpose? And making me accumulate one million points is something I could never do in ten lifetimes..."
"Host, there is a side quest. There will be a points reward upon completion. Will you accept it?" The system asked after a long silence.
"What kind of mission? It's not going to be another one costing tens or hundreds of dollars, is it?" Jiang Linlin asked with a look of disdain.
"The Qin family's impression of the host has collapsed. If the host can gain the Qin family's forgiveness and goodwill within seven days, the host will receive a points reward," the system said matter-of-factly.
"How much?" Jiang Linlin immediately perked up. "One hundred thousand? Didn't you specify two extra zeros?"
The system is silent.
Jiang Linlin's mood instantly brightened: "Isn't it just getting the Qin family to forgive me? No problem, I can get it done in three days, not seven."
The system was somewhat worried about Jiang Linlin's overconfidence, but still dutifully said, "If the host can complete it within three days, the system will reward you with another 20% of the points."
"System, it's settled then," Jiang Linlin said happily.
"But if the host fails to complete the task within the stipulated seven days, there will be penalties! Not only will points be deducted, but the host will also be struck by lightning..."
Before the system could finish speaking, Jiang Linlin interrupted in a relaxed tone: "Alright, stop nagging. I will definitely complete the task."
Jiang Linlin was in a better mood and stopped caring about Xie Guodong. She took off her clothes, got into bed, and took the initiative to get closer to Xie Guodong...
Although Xie Guodong didn't want to pay attention to Jiang Linlin, he couldn't resist her body, and the two quickly became entangled, their passion igniting and becoming uncontrollable...
As soon as Qin Yingxue approached, she heard indescribable sounds, each one louder than the last. Her face darkened, and she could only turn around and go back inside.
She didn't want to see two pale, fleshy bodies that would offend her eyes, and she certainly didn't want to throw up her dinner.
Jiang Linlin is still in this mood, so she probably won't be leaving anytime soon.
We'll find another opportunity tomorrow.
Just as Qin Yingxue was about to turn around, she saw Qin Dajiang standing not far away.
Qin Yingxue raised her eyebrows, a look of surprise on her face.
Qin Dajiang walked towards her: "Can't sleep? Want to chat?"
"Okay!" Qin Yingxue also had something to say to Qin Dajiang, so she readily nodded.
The two of them naturally walked side by side out of the yard and arrived at the new foundation next door.
In just a few days, the new house has taken shape, with the basic framework already completed.
"I never expected Dad to approve three plots of land. I was planning to finish building the new house before you got married." Qin Dajiang looked at the new house in front of him, feeling joy but mostly regret.
"I'll come back when the new house is built!" Qin Yingxue promised with a smile.
Qin Dajiang's eyes lit up, and he said to Qin Yingxue with a solemn expression, "It's a deal!"
"A word is settled!"
The atmosphere between the two immediately became closer, and Qin Dajiang seized the opportunity to say, "Yingxue, I know Jiang Linlin is a bit unreasonable. I don't know what happened when she returned to the Jiang family. She wasn't like this before..."
Qin Yingxue scoffed inwardly: "So she's been reborn, huh? She thinks she's got a special advantage, that she's got the upper hand, that she's God's favorite daughter, so of course she's arrogant and conceited."
"But our Qin family will not let her run wild. I will personally send her back as soon as it is light tomorrow!" Qin Dajiang said to Qin Yingxue with a serious expression.
"Second brother, can you tell me about what happened between Jiang Linlin and Song Yanchuan?"
Based on what she saw in her dream and in reality, Qin Yingxue knew that Jiang Linlin would not let the matter rest.
Why does Jiang Linlin hate herself so much?
Was it resentment and jealousy towards Song Yanchuan? Or was there another purpose?
"Yingxue, don't listen to what others are saying. Song Yanchuan has no romantic feelings for Jiang Linlin," Qin Dajiang quickly said.
"How did you know, Second Brother?" Qin Yingxue asked Qin Dajiang with a smile.
“Jiang Linlin used to follow us around and pester Song Yanchuan, but Song Yanchuan would never pay attention to her. Later, she joined the army, and Song Yanchuan rarely came back, so there was no possibility between them.” Qin Dajiang frowned as he said this, as if he remembered something. “Jiang Linlin did find out Song Yanchuan’s address from Aunt Song and wrote a few letters, but Song Yanchuan never replied to a single one.”
"How do you know Song Yanchuan hasn't replied?" Qin Yingxue asked curiously.
Qin Dajiang blushed slightly, his tone tinged with embarrassment: "Song Yanchuan came back once before. He came back to ask me to break off the engagement with our family. At that time, I was misled by Jiang Linlin. She proudly said a few times that Song Yanchuan had replied to her letter. I always thought that Song Yanchuan and Jiang Linlin were in love and dating."
After hearing this, Song Yanchuan immediately ordered me to bring Jiang Linlin in for a face-to-face confrontation. Jiang Linlin had no choice but to confess that the so-called reply was fabricated. "The engagement could have been dissolved, but Song Yanchuan received a last-minute notice and left in the middle of the night, which delayed things. Later, your and Jiang Linlin's true identities were exposed, and you know what happened afterward..."
