Lin Shen watched his somewhat aggressive retreating figure and finally understood that "he" meant Qin Yu.
He hurriedly nodded and replied, "Oh, okay. I understand."
Lin Shen scratched his head. Although he said he understood, his mind was a complete muddle.
Hadn't the CEO said it was just a slightly adorable pet?
Then what did this mean now?
And he had even praised him so admiringly just now, saying, "As expected of the CEO—he knows when to pick things up and when to let them go."
Although Lin Shen felt somewhat contemptuous of the CEO for going back on his word, he didn't dare say anything to his face.
Su Qiao didn't know when she had fallen asleep. Perhaps Qin Yu had been too much of an eyesore, and she had fallen asleep while pretending.
When she woke up again, it was nearly dusk.
Host, host, you finally woke up.
The moment 444 saw her eyelashes tremble, it knew she was about to wake up and called out excitedly.
"What is it?" Su Qiao was still not fully awake and asked reflexively.
444 had been extremely excited, but apparently remembered something and suddenly froze.
It stammered, "Uh? Nothing. I was just saying hello."
It was better not to mention this. Otherwise, its host might start killing people again at any moment.
After Su Qiao had fallen asleep, that terrifying man, Qin Mohan, had come in.
First, he had darkened his face, crumpled the note Qin Yu had left on the bedside table into a ball, and thrown it into the trash can.
Then he had fetched a basin of water and wiped her hands again and again, finger by finger, without even overlooking her fingernails.
444 had wanted nothing more than to cover its face.
As expected of the moody major antagonist. Such strange behavior truly wasn't something an ordinary mortal could understand.
But...
Why did it feel so shy?
Su Qiao opened her eyes groggily and immediately saw the man sitting in the single-seat sofa by the window, reading documents.
The setting sun shone on the man, who was wearing only a deep-blue shirt, as though draping him in a layer of golden light.
His already dazzling features appeared even more sharply defined.
This was the first time Su Qiao had seriously examined the man face-to-face.
He had an upright bearing and was probably over 1.8 meters tall.
He had swordlike brows and bright eyes, a high nose bridge, and slightly thin but beautifully shaped lips. His complexion was a healthy bronze.
Combined with his somewhat gloomy and icy air, he made people instinctively hold their breath.
He clearly wasn't a simple man. No wonder Little Four seemed somewhat afraid of him.
"Little Four, what does 'major antagonist' mean?"
The male lead and female lead had the highest Luck Value in this world. Apart from them, only the major antagonist could stand against them.
If you wanted to complete your mission quickly, fulfill the Original Avatar's wish, and dispel the resentment of the Original Avatar, you had to borrow his Luck Value.
Moreover, if he died, this plane might collapse. No one knew what the ending would be then.
Even if the plane didn't collapse, with your Cannon Fodder Fate's Luck Value, you definitely wouldn't be able to defeat the male lead and the others without his help.
"So he can't die?"
Su Qiao narrowed her eyes as she looked at the man resting with his eyes closed.
She hadn't expected this man to be so important.
444 nodded vigorously, utterly certain.
That's right. Not only could he not die, you also had to stop him from destroying the world after he went dark.
"Weren't you saying that completing the Original Avatar's wish and dispelling her resentment counted as completing the mission?"
Why did Su Qiao feel like she had fallen into a huge pit?
And the kind she couldn't climb out of?
444 blinked.
But if this plane collapsed or was destroyed before you completed the mission, wouldn't that count as a failure?
That made sense too.
Su Qiao closed her eyes again. "Then what should I do now?"
What should she do?
444 was somewhat bewildered too.
Fortunately, to ensure that it could complete its mission smoothly and be an excellent system, it had recently not only studied all kinds of knowledge about this world but also read quite a few novels.
