Chapter 513: Chapter 257: Big Brother Has Also Become One of the System’s Task Targets

[Ah, it’s bad, it’s bad~]

In the night, a thunderous sound suddenly came from Duke Ning Mansion. Of course, besides Lady Yun who had just woken up, and the sibling pair, no one else could hear it.

Lady Yun, who was already looking pale and worried, immediately tensed up upon hearing the exclamation. Even Yun Wanyao, who was feeding her, couldn’t help but tremble, almost spilling the porridge from the spoon.

Bad again?

What has happened again?

The three of them blinked, and all turned their heads to look at the small child on the short couch by the window.

Just about to ask, Yun Wanye’s gaze swept across the busy maids inside, and he coughed, swallowing the words that were at the tip of his tongue, waving his hand to dismiss them all.

"You all can go now. I and the eldest lady will take care of things here."

"Yes."

The maids dared not object, immediately following the order and leaving. Yun Wanye rose, locked the door, then quickly walked to the short couch and sat next to Yun Wanqing.

"Little sister, what’s the matter??"

He reached out to hook Yun Wanqing’s small finger, gently pulling it.

The subtle action immediately brought Yun Wanqing back to her senses. She raised her eyes, meeting his gaze filled with inquiry and exploration.

[Oh, what can it be? Big brother has also become one of the system’s task targets.]

What???

Upon hearing this, Lady Yun and the siblings both widened their eyes, their faces full of disbelief.

Yun Wanyao put down the bowl and spoon, looking at her in utter shock.

"How come, how did big brother suddenly become one of the system’s task targets? Little sister, what exactly happened?"

"Yes, what exactly happened? Little sister, quickly tell us."

Yun Wanye was very impatient.

Little sister had mentioned earlier that big brother had the fate of being a destined cannon fodder. If he became a system task target, even self-preservation might be difficult, let alone helping father resolve the crisis.

Seeing that everyone was very anxious, Yun Wanqing didn’t beat around the bush, directly getting to the point.

[It’s like this, when Su Qianxue was chasing Mo Yuanhao, she accidentally lost track of him midway~]

[While complaining to the system, big brother, who had the same destination, caught up from behind.]

[According to the system, when a character with ties to Su Qianxue appears on the same map, the system will automatically issue a prompt.]

[So, as Su Qianxue’s former fiancé and one of the characters with important ties to her, when they were within ten miles, big brother was automatically monitored by the system.]

[Su Qianxue possibly hasn’t inherited the memory of the original character, she only watched all the original storylines, knowing the existence and information of all characters, but not knowing their appearance, looks, etc.]

[Therefore, she is very curious about big brother, the former fiancé~]

[Another reason is that it’s getting dark, and she doesn’t quite dare to spend the night alone in the wild outskirts, so she planned to approach big brother and team up with him.]

[Before she transmigrated, when big brother’s legs were not yet healed, the original character detested big brother in every way, sticking to Mo Yuanhao and disgracing big brother.]

[Su Qianxue fears big brother holds a grudge against her, taking the opportunity to retaliate, so she used a tool to change her appearance and hide her identity.]

[Big brother originally ignored Su Qianxue, but as night fell, if they were to camp overnight in the forest, they’d definitely have to face each other.]

[Cang Yan proactively talked with Su Qianxue, and Su Qianxue successfully met big brother.]

[Upon seeing big brother, she became infatuated and asked the system if she could change the male lead, wanting to set big brother as the male lead, which is originally just bragging, but who knew it accidentally triggered the system’s alert mode.]

[Probably the system determined that big brother threatened the male lead’s position, and to protect the storyline, it automatically triggered a task, letting Su Qianxue repair big brother’s storyline, leading big brother to the fate of the storyline.]

[...]

Yun Wanyao: "..."

Yun Wanye: "..."

The siblings absolutely did not expect such a task to be triggered so frivolously, just because Su Qianxue casually said she wanted to swap the male lead, the system hurriedly issued a task.

Indeed, cannon fodders have a thin fate, encountering the female lead guarantees misfortune.

This Su Qianxue, truly is a troublemaker!!!

"Wha, what?"

Did Mo Yuanhao and Su Qianxue also head to Dingbei Pass?

And there Su Qianxue had this encounter with Chen’er halfway, triggering a system task against Chen’er due to her?

Lady Yun’s eyes darkened, almost fainting again.

After waking up, her head remained muddled, her reactions naturally very sluggish. It wasn’t until now that she sorted out the details of the situation.

Thinking about Yun Wanchen’s current predicament, she wished she could grow wings and fly to Yun Wanchen’s side immediately.

"Oh, mother stop being anxious, careful you don’t faint again..."

Though Yun Wanyao also worries about Yun Wanchen, upon seeing Lady Yun’s expression, could only hold her to comfort her.

"How could I not be anxious, this Su Qianxue has the system and tools at hand, changed her appearance, hid her identity, Chen’er encountered a weak woman on the road, he would surely drop his guard, what if she indeed harms him?"

"Chen’er’s legs were only just healed with great effort."

Lady Yun was close to tears with anxiety.

She doesn’t care whether Su Qianxue is being forced by a system task; she only knows, if Su Qianxue indeed completes the task, Yun Wanchen will be severely harmed.

Repairing the storyline, leading to the fate of the storyline, wouldn’t that mean turning Yun Wanchen into a disabled person?

Yun Wanchen’s legs took significant effort and endured countless sufferings, besides the opportunity with Ningning.

To experience it again may not guarantee healing, Chen’er certainly couldn’t endure it.

[Mother is right, when big brother left, we didn’t yet know that Su Qianxue and Mo Yuanhao were also going to Dingbei Pass.]

[Therefore, this Su Qianxue, is completely unexpected for big brother.]

[Now, encountering her, what happens between her and big brother is unclear, but certainly, once Su Qianxue begins her task, big brother will surely gain nothing.]

[The female lead’s halo is very influential on the supporting characters.]

Although a new female lead has intruded, capturing Su Qianxue’s fortune, Su Qianxue is ultimately the chosen protagonist, and with the system’s assistance, the female lead halo remains strong.

What Yun Wanqing said is equivalent to adding fuel to the fire.

Lady Yun, already anxious, was even more urgent.

Suddenly, as if she thought of something, she looked sharply at Yun Wanye, her eyes bursting with hopeful light, as if seeing a lifeline.

"No, we can’t sit by idly, right, Ye’er, quickly take Lu Wu to pursue Chen’er, you must catch up to Chen’er as soon as possible, absolutely nothing can happen to Chen’er..."

Upon hearing this, Yun Wanye hesitated slightly.

It’s not that he didn’t want to agree, it’s just that, big brother already left a day ago, if he pursued now, could he still make it?
