There were both familiar and new notifications that appeared in Li Yang's vision on his way ho and though he was familiar with the terms, qi being intangible and essence as sothing more physical, it was still strange to see it written on a screen. In the end, even the System would end up quantifying what had happened between him and Bo Lifen. But it had proven what he had tried to ignore while such things were happening and had muted the notifications.
Gods were watching like so old man in a red suit checking if kids were 'naughty' or 'nice'. Or perhaps there was a better way to term it, but he opted not to and only took note of their assessnt.

He sighed and glanced into thin air and spoke quietly, "You were there the entire ti?"
A distortion in the air appeared and revealed the small fluffy creature. It floated beside him and gave a nonchalant shrug, "Doubt you'd do anything knowing that you have viewers—didn't expect you were an exhibitionist."
"I'm not," he said.
"You could have done it in the comforts of a house and a bed—and yet you do it behind a tree. If that's not an exhibition then I don't know what is." the Panda rolled its eyes and motioned vaguely at the CEO. "But hey, nice dick."
"Thank you." Li Yang didn't miss a beat in the reply.
"Gah—that nonchalance is killing ." the Panda groaned, and shook its head. "Guess it did help your mood eh?"
"I guess I can understand why my brother enjoys this." Li Yang arrived back at his house and took note of the absence of his Liang's car, the man was still out. He entered his abode and glanced at the wall where Bo Lifen rested earlier. He stepped past the hallway and onto the kitchen table where he had left his suitcase and the canister of the Blossoming Spirit Tea.
"Well, that's probably already a lot to admit for you." the Panda muttered to itself. "I guess you're going to make another drink eh?"
"Is there any strange side effect if I were to consu multiple types of drinks with varying ingredients?" Li Yang wondered. The Black Ocean Pearl Tea's effects were worth drinking in his opinion—regardless of cultivation, the drink seed capable of increasing longevity. Except there was a need to drink vast quantities. He would have to ask Bo Lifen how she obtained them.
The creature snorted behind him, "As expected for a greedy man like you to want to drink everything you can get your hands on—there's probably so benefits and drawbacks to mixing, but you should focus on actually getting your spiritual roots to open, useless sponge."
"Your choices in nicknas are strange." He would point out as he prepared another batch of hot tea for himself. Li Yang glanced at his watch and sighed inwardly—the short romp hadn't exactly been in his schedule but it wasn't sothing he would complain about.
"I'm just pointing out what I can see." the Panda jabbed its paw in the air. "Unlocking Qi Condensation and not having the capacity to refine and absorb it for your spiritual roots, what a waste. Heck, it made you susceptible to danger."
"Indeed."
The man was really not the best in small conversation and a silence would erge as he prepared his tea, leaving both of them in silent contemplation of their circumstances.

"This had cost around 1000 charm points, the sample and then three additional cans of the Divine Energizer Drink." Li Yang placed the fifth teacup down on his dining table and weighed the costs. In front of him was the Panda chewing and grinding one of the bamboo stalks. "I suppose it is better than waiting until I reached 5000 charm points."
"Che!" the creature spat at him, "You're supposed to be buying items for you to consu and strengthen yourself—not to trade with other people."
Li Yang raised his brows, "Surely other people with Systems would take a similar route if they found another alternative source." He could at least surmise that there would be other people with Systems as well if there was a rampant source of system novels in the market. Or perhaps the gods had made a System due to man's desire?
"Hah, I guess—but not everyone's going to do it." the Panda narrowed its beady eyes at him. "You should feel lucky that everything's based on entertainnt otherwise those who refuse to heed the System and Originator will face bigger and severe punishnts."
The CEO took in the information with so silence, the information was new but not entirely useful. If anything, it only made him realize sothing. "... You say that losing the company is a mild form of threat?"
"So people lose their families over this—and yet, your life is just going to end up upside down if you had refused it. There are System Holders that die and have a countdown… while you get a vacation leave for half-assing the Date the Secretary Quest?" the Panda made a face. "You're one lucky bastard! Anybody else would be doing quests and collecting girls with no tomorrow. I bet your brother would have aced this System."
"Then you could have given it to him, right?"
"Well that's…" the Panda stared at the CEO with a frown. "Obviously it'd be a waste! Who the heck changes the main star of the show after a couple of episodes? I thought you're supposed to be a businessman."
