Fan Yanshu also wanted to leave!
Although he had spent all the points he had earned in his previous world to buy an artifact.
There had been a problem with the delivery of the artifact.
While this made him very angry.
That was not the most important thing.
Right now, the most important thing for him was his own life!
If he couldn’t even save his own life, what else was there to say?
No matter how precious the points were, one needed to be alive to use them!
In fact, he had wanted to leave even before the System spoke up.
But the key point was that the choice was not in his hands now.
It was Shi Yaoguang who wouldn’t let him go!
He looked at Shi Yaoguang, eting her clear eyes, and felt a chill in his heart, "Tell the truth, what exactly do you want to do?"
"It’s not about what I want to do, it’s about you."
Shi Yaoguang said, blinking her eyes, her beautiful gaze carrying a seductive charm.
At this mont, he no longer thought of Shi Yaoguang as just a woman who relied on n.
All the labels he had previously used to define her, he had torn down himself.
Rely on n?
What a joke!
Could a woman who knew about the existence of the System on his person and could make the System’s artifact delivery fail be soone who rose to power by relying on n?
That’s right.
Fan Yanshu’s mind was already spinning.
He had figured out why the System’s artifact delivery had failed.
It could only be Shi Yaoguang, it had to be her doing.
Just thinking that Shi Yaoguang was behind this made him feel utterly cold inside.
If Shi Yaoguang knew what he was planning to do, she certainly wouldn’t let him off easily.
"System, can I give up Fan Yanshu’s body?"
System: "I’m sorry, Host, your soul cannot leave this body for now."
Although Fan Yanshu had already known the answer, he still felt so disappointnt.
As he was thinking, he heard Shi Yaoguang say, "Don’t be in such a hurry to run. Isn’t there anything that can’t be discussed properly? If you run now, you won’t gain any advantages, will you?"
Fan Yanshu saw that she even knew he wanted to run, which confird his suspicions.
He decided to confront the issue head-on, "Tell clearly, what exactly do you want to do!"
"What can I make you do?" Shi Yaoguang looked at him as if he were a clueless child, "Isn’t the System’s artifact sothing you bought yourself at a high price?"
"Didn’t your parents ever tell you not to be careless with money?"
Fan Yanshu: "..."
He didn’t quite understand why Shi Yaoguang was suddenly talking about this.
Weren’t they discussing his fate? Why did she suddenly switch to lecture mode?
As he wondered, he heard Shi Yaoguang say, "I won’t make things difficult for you."
"As long as you— listen to Mommy."
Fan Yanshu was still confused, "What do you an, listen to Mommy?"
"When you were little, your mother must have told you that wasting is shaful, right?"
Fan Yanshu nodded subconsciously.
At the sa ti, his mind was in turmoil.
Was Shi Yaoguang suggesting...
He should...
Use the artifact?
Just the thought of it made Fan Yanshu’s eyes split with rage, his pupils trembling.
"Shi Yaoguang, are you doing this on purpose?"
"On purpose?" Shi Yaoguang’s face was full of confusion, "What did I do on purpose?"
Fan Yanshu gnashed his teeth, "You’re deliberately humiliating !"
"Oh dear, how could you call it humiliation? But then again, do you always think I’m humiliating you? If you really think so, I can’t do anything about it. Even though I’ve never actually humiliated you, if you’re so sensitive, that’s not my fault, is it?"
Listening to her using such a shaless tone and rattling off for so long, his face darkened even more.
"Dare you say you don’t want to use the prop on ?"
Shi Yaoguang nodded, and before he could breathe a sigh of relief, she said, "I dare say, the prop is indeed for you. Is there anything wrong with that?"
Fan Yanshu: "..."
"The gift you prepared for , I don’t want it, so I’m returning it to its original owner. Is there anything wrong with that?"
Shi Yaoguang continued to press.
Theoretically, there was indeed nothing wrong with that.
But the re thought of the System prop’s effects made Fan Yanshu panic.
He couldn’t help but ask the System in his mind, "System, if Shi Yaoguang uses the prop on , can you help remove its effects?"
The System remained silent.
Even though Fan Yanshu already had his answer, he still couldn’t help but wishfully inquire, "System?"
The System finally stopped playing dead, but the answer it gave was not what Fan Yanshu wanted.
"I’m sorry, host."
"System props cannot have their effects removed."
If the effects of props could just be removed easily, they wouldn’t be offered at such high prices.
Having received a firm answer from the System, Fan Yanshu felt his heart turn cold.
The way he looked at Shi Yaoguang was tinged with anger.
"You don’t need to look at like that."
Shi Yaoguang shrugged her shoulders, "I’m not deliberately targeting you, and I hope you understand that."
Fan Yanshu ground his teeth, "You’re lying with your eyes wide open!"
Shi Yaoguang candidly admitted, "Maybe this is what they call catching the unguarded off-guard."
"I thought, when you asked out, it was to give a gift."
Shi Yaoguang hinted, "I didn’t quite like your gift, so I just gave it back to you."
"But to save you from embarrassnt, I didn’t directly say I didn’t want your gift. I rely used it on you instead. You don’t need to thank too much."
Fan Yanshu: "..."
He was truly at a loss for words with this woman.
How could she maintain such an innocent expression while saying those things!
Doesn’t she feel the slightest bit embarrassed!
Shi Yaoguang certainly didn’t feel embarrassed.
In fact, the only one who couldn’t stand it was Fan Yanshu.
Fan Yanshu, finally unable to restrain himself at her shaless expression, burst out angrily, "Shi Yaoguang, I’ll give you one last chance. Just agree to let go, and I’ll forgive you!"
"What?" Shi Yaoguang dug at her ear, "Sorry, I didn’t catch that. Please say it again!"
Fan Yanshu took a deep breath and forced a smile, "Miss Shi, I was wrong before, please let off just this once, okay?"
"Let you off once?"
Shi Yaoguang shook her head, "I’ve given you more than one chance already. If you think none of them counted as part of my plan for you, then there’s nothing I can do."
Fan Yanshu looked skeptical, "When have you ever given a chance?"
Shi Yaoguang shrugged her shoulders, "Every ti you sched against ."
"When you sched against , I led you on, hoping you would turn over a new leaf, but you just refuse to repent."
"I, too, am at my wit’s end. I trust that you’ll understand, right?"
Fan Yanshu clenched his teeth, "Impossible!"
"Then let’s just drop it."
Shi Yaoguang wore an expression of regret, "I was actually thinking of helping you find a better candidate. Since you don’t need my help, I’ll be leaving now."
Fan Yanshu didn’t believe for a second that, knowing what he planned to do to her, Shi Yaoguang could just leave as if nothing was the matter.
Unexpectedly, Shi Yaoguang really did just walk away as if nothing was the matter.
Without a hint of reluctance.
