To Fang Jueyu, this was indeed a huge test. He didn't even know how many times he recited the Heart Sutra in his mind before he finally fell asleep. Guo Xinyu also only fell asleep after hearing Fang Jueyu's calm and even breathing.
With the first rays of morning light, Fang Jueyu opened his eyes and suddenly felt something in his hand. He quickly let go. When did his sleep posture become so poor?
Luckily, Guo Xinyu hadn't woken up yet. Otherwise, Fang Jueyu would definitely have had a fresh red slap mark on his face!
"Ah, I feel like my body has been emptied!" Fang Jueyu sighed. He could control his body and thoughts but could not stop his natural reactions. A whole night in sage mode was indeed a bit hard to endure.
"What is that?" Guo Xinyu, gradually waking, suddenly felt something poking into her back. She quickly realized what it was and instantly snapped out of her sleepy state.
"You... pervert!" Guo Xinyu quickly grabbed the blanket and wrapped herself tightly.
"You've already slept together, what's all this talk about being a pervert?" Fang Jueyu muttered softly.
"You were the one afraid of the dark and insisted on sleeping here with me last night. How did I become the pervert?" Fang Jueyu shamelessly said, completely forgetting what he did when he woke up.
"I don't care! You are a stinking pervert!" Looking at Fang Jueyu's embarrassed look, Guo Xinyu couldn't help but feel inexplicably happy.
"I didn't do anything all night. I'm less than a beast, and now you're calling me a pervert. It's too hard for me," Fang Jueyu said, feigning grievance.
"Mua!" Guo Xinyu swiftly kissed him on the cheek, "It's a reward for your excellent behavior last night!"
"Just that little bit?" Fang Jueyu said unsatisfied. He had endured a whole night, "No way, I need to collect more interest!"
Fang Jueyu quickly pulled Guo Xinyu into his arms, intending to start the morning with a deep kiss.
"Buzz buzz buzz!" Just then, the sound of a phone suddenly rang, and the two immediately snapped back to their senses like startled fawns.
"That's... that's my phone." Guo Xinyu pointed to her phone by her pillow.
Fang Jueyu had a look of disbelief. The call didn't come early or late, but just right at this very moment. If he found out who it was, he would've torn them to pieces!
"Guo Xinyu, where the hell were you last night? You didn't reply to the group messages or answer your phone! We almost called the police!" A slightly fierce female voice came from the phone.
"We finished the movie too late last night, and the school was locked down, so we couldn't go back." Guo Xinyu sneaked a glance at Fang Jueyu, who was sulking, and then patted his somewhat matted hair.
"Then where did you go last night? Did you guys stay in a hotel? Guo Xinyu! Can you use your brain? It's easy to be deceived! Come on, did he do anything to you last night?"
"Oh stop! What are you talking about? We didn't stay outside!"
"Phew, that's good!" Xiaoling heaved a sigh of relief.
"I stayed at his place last night."
"What? You were at his house?" Guo Xinyu's latter words made Xiaoling explode. Wasn't this like walking into a lion's den? With Guo Xinyu's personality, wouldn't she have been eaten up entirely?
"Don't worry, we didn't do anything last night. He respects me a lot," Guo Xinyu explained.
"He just called me a pervert!" Fang Jueyu muttered discontentedly.
"That's good!" Guo Xinyu's words were convincing; she wouldn't lie, "How about this, next time, bring your boyfriend, and let's have a meal together so the girls can check him out!"
"No need for next time. How about tonight?" Fang Jueyu moved right next to Guo Xinyu and said.
"Oh my, Xinyu, he's there with you?"
"Y-yeah," Guo Xinyu rolled her eyes at Fang Jueyu, "What are you doing!"
"What's the matter? Everyone will meet eventually anyway. Tonight, I'll bribe your roommates early on so they'll give us more opportunities in the future!"
"Hahaha, Xinyu, your boyfriend knows how to play the game!"
It's said that when a girl is in love, she can support a whole dorm, and when she's having a hard time in love, she needs the entire dorm's help; sisters are there to sell out!
"Alright, it's settled then. Tonight at 5:30, we'll wait for you at the school gate. Handsome, make sure you return our Xinyu safe and sound!"
"Promise to return her to you in one piece!" Fang Jueyu laughed.
"Why did you so readily agree?" Guo Xinyu pouted, "Don't you know, my roommates can eat a lot, and they could make you poor!"
"What's up? We've only been together for a day, and you're already thinking about saving me money?" Fang Jueyu teased, brushing against her nose.
"Stop it! If you keep brushing, my nose will collapse!" Guo Xinyu feigned anger.
"My roommates aren't easy to fool! They'll definitely give you a hard time!"
"Not likely? Even your parents didn't make life hard for me!" Fang Jueyu said, "Oh right, I should find a time to officially visit Uncle Guo and them."
As for Guo Xinyu's roommates, Fang Jueyu really didn't see a big issue, having a nice meal, giving some gifts, wouldn't they be happy to sell out for glory?
"Thank you!" Guo Xinyu leaned into Fang Jueyu's chest voluntarily; the warmth made her feel at ease.
"No thank-yous between us." Fang Jueyu suddenly revealed a sly smile, "But how are you going to compensate me for what happened just now?"
"Hmm?" Guo Xinyu looked puzzled.
"Heh heh!" Fang Jueyu once again pounced on her, and the room instantly turned into a scene of romance...
In the end, Fang Jueyu still didn't manage to do anything. To calm down, he could only head to the bathroom for a refreshing cold shower.
"Xiao Yi, why haven't I completed my mission yet? Didn't you say that getting Xinyu counts as completing the mission? Where's my reward?" Fang Jueyu suddenly recalled this matter.
"Master, it's not considered complete yet. You two have to do 'that' for the task to be officially completed!"
"What?" Fang Jueyu was so close to cursing. He had already gotten Guo Xinyu, and now there was a condition added? This intelligent system must be a rogue system!
"Manners, this can't be blamed on me. This was your father's decision. Until you obtain Level One permission, the previous owner's orders always have priority."
"Alright, Fang Huai, you win this time!" Fang Jueyu said viciously. It seemed the road ahead was still long!
"Achoo!" On a planet tens of thousands of light-years from Earth, Fang Huai sneezed suddenly.
"What happened?" Cao Lan asked.
"Nothing, probably my son is missing me," Fang Huai replied, "Our parents' trace disappeared on this planet. There must be something nearby. Let's search more thoroughly."
