"How's the food I cooked?" Xia Lin deliberately asked this even though he had clearly seen Qi Shang eating quickly and a lot. Qi Shang gave him a cold look, then nodded. "It's okay."
If it weren't for the two extra points of affection value, Xia Lin would have thought Qi Shang was just perfunctorily complimenting him! Xia Lin found Qi Shang, this villainous big shot, extremely strange. After getting along for several days, all Xia Lin saw was just an ordinary, somewhat withdrawn and hard - to - approach teenager.
However, Xia Lin believed there must be a reason for Qi Shang to be a villainous big shot. The system couldn't be wrong, could it? But to Xia Lin's great surprise, this time the system really made a mistake.
【Host! Host! It's bad! I've transported you to the wrong time!】
"What? The wrong time? What do you mean? System, explain clearly. I'm a bit confused now!"
【I'm sorry, host. Originally, I was supposed to transport you to a time ten years later. By then, Qi Shang would already be a world - famous top - tier killer with countless lives on his hands, and his darkness value would reach 81. But right now, although Qi Shang has also done many wrong things because of his Speech Spirit ability, his darkness value is only 65.】
It was even possible to transport to the wrong time? Xia Lin was learning about this kind of strange operation for the first time. But the system then told him that after consulting the main system, the solution was for Xia Lin to "make the best of the situation" and stay in this time to complete the task. After all, the task target was still the same person.
【It's just that since the task target's darkness value is only in the sixties, this time your task duration as the host is only two years.】
Two years was indeed shorter than the time he had spent in the previous worlds. Xia Lin sighed. "I understand. Although the darkness value has decreased, the time has also shortened. My task is still not easy."
However, this kid was only seventeen years old now. Who could have imagined that he would become a top - tier killer ten years later? And then there was the Speech Spirit ability. After the system introduced it to him, Xia Lin was extremely curious. In short, this ability could be summarized as "making wishes come true". But depending on one's own strength, the level of wishes that could be fulfilled also varied.
Xia Lin was eager to know how powerful Qi Shang's ability was. But he also clearly understood that he was supposed to be unaware of Qi Shang's special ability. Oh well, he hoped Qi Shang would use the Speech Spirit ability soon so that he could naturally ask Qi Shang related questions.
One day, while taking a shower, Xia Lin was lost in thought, thinking about many things, about Qi Shang, about himself, and about how to decline the invitation from a few classmates to go singing and meet some pretty girls.
Probably because he was so inattentive while taking a shower, Xia Lin didn't notice that when he turned around to turn off the shower, he slipped and landed hard on his butt on the floor. The tile floor was very hard, and Xia Lin only felt a sharp pain in his butt.
He didn't know if he had broken any bones, but he must have fallen quite hard. There must be a large bruise.
With great difficulty, he wrapped a towel around himself and limped out of the bathroom. Qi Shang, who was coming downstairs for a drink, saw him and asked curiously, "What happened to you?"
Xia Lin felt a bit embarrassed. "I just slipped... It's no big deal." In fact, it hurt a lot, but boys cared about their pride. Especially since Xia Lin's relationship with Qi Shang wasn't very close yet. Mainly because Qi Shang was really hard to approach. No wonder he would become a killer in the future.
Sure enough, Qi Shang looked at Xia Lin with a contemptuous look. "You even manage to slip while taking a shower?"
