Lex's purpose in giving out quests to River and Pearl was twofold - and no, it wasn't because he was getting sentintal and missing his system. That was totally absurd.
The first reason was because over this period of ti he'd basically figured out their personalities to a certain extent. They were both ambitionless hobodies who wanted to cultivate, live a comfortable life and overco their difficulties. Such personalities weren't too bad - at least they wouldn't develop strong yet random tendencies or go off on revenge arcs.
Heck, even with strong motivations for revenge, they hadn't thought about it. If Lex were in Pearl's shoes, he would have already been planning how to make Baron Nester regret ever being born, and then discover who was the mastermind behind him.
Instead, the two of them were content to simply survive and not get found out. With such personalities, they were suitable to act on his behalf without triggering any kind of unnecessary trouble. He had to say, without the influence of the system causing him problems on every turn, life was quite easy. Heck, he hadn't even gotten involved with any of the major local conspiracies going on.
