Chapter 31: 31. Cooperation
Chapter 31: 31. Cooperation
Song Yan Ning walked and pondered whether or not to give up on the task, but eventually, she decided to complete it. Regardless of success or failure, she wanted to give it a try, as she was never one to easily give up.
She stopped walking and turned toward the Ling Family home.
Qin Yushen walked into the living room and saw Zhou Qiqi sitting on the couch, gazing affectionately at Ling Yu opposite her. He already knew that Song Yanxue’s task had failed, and her consciousness had left the task. Because of his points, the system deducted a portion again.

Song Yanxue was his partner, and as long as he didn’t set permissions, she could use his points to save herself. Of course, his willingness to use points to protect Song Yanxue was also because of the relationship between the Qin and Song families, and their mothers. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have wanted to carry a burden.
Ling Yu, massaging his temples with a headache, looked at Zhou Qiqi with a wry smile, “Listen to me, it’s really impossible between us.” He was still a child; how could he accept a grown woman’s confession? How was this task not setting him up? It was practically a trap for this innocent young man!
“Brother Yichen, it’s okay if you don’t like me now—I can wait for you. Just take a good look at me. Don’t you think I’m better than Mumu? Don’t worry, I’ll definitely be a good wife in the future.” Zhou Qiqi stood up and shyly twirled in front of Ling Yu. She had dressed up specially today.
Ling Yu rolled his eyes speechlessly and saw Qin Yushen walking in, “Brother, where’s Mumu?”
“She’s gone back,” Qin Yushen replied indifferently, heading upstairs. He felt that she wouldn’t give up just like that; he was generally very accurate about people.
At that moment, footsteps came from the entrance.
The three of them turned to look simultaneously.
“Mumu.” Ling Yu saw Song Yan Ning walking in, his face immediately lit up with surprise, and he stood up to greet her. He thought she had abandoned him.
Song Yan Ning smiled and nodded at Ling Yu, then turned to Qin Yushen who was approaching, “I have something to tell you.”
Qin Yushen’s thin lips curved slightly, and he nodded, “Let’s talk in the study.”
“Mhm.” Song Yan Ning nodded and followed Qin Yushen.
“Mumu,” Ling Yu called out to Song Yan Ning. He really didn’t want to be with Zhou Qiqi; that woman was too scary, particularly the way she looked at him, which gave him goosebumps.
“I’ll be right back.” Song Yan Ning patted Ling Yu on the shoulder and followed Qin Yushen.
When Song Yan Ning entered the study, Qin Yushen closed the door and looked at her, “I thought you would give up on the task.” He was right; she wasn’t the type to give up easily.
Song Yan Ning smiled, “Why would I give up?” Even if she wasn’t the last one out now, she didn’t want to leave without trying. Besides, her current self was just a strand of her consciousness. She wasn’t scared of him; once she was out, she would definitely keep her distance from him. He gave her a dangerous feeling.
Qin Yushen’s smile widened, and he sat down on the sofa, picking up the teapot from the table and pouring tea for both of them. He pointed to the sofa, “Sit down and let’s talk.”
Song Yan Ning didn’t hesitate, sitting opposite Qin Yushen and taking the tea he offered, “I hope we can cooperate and complete this task together.” It was impossible for him to fall in love with her; he wasn’t someone easily controlled. Only, she wondered if the system would recognize their cooperation.
Qin Yushen took a sip of his tea and slowly said, “We can, but you have to agree to one condition.”
Song Yan Ning frowned, “What condition?”
“After the task is completed, team up with me.” Qin Yushen looked at her. He was very interested in her, especially in her real identity. Maybe she, like him, had also come from that place.
Song Yan Ning sipped her tea, “Deal, but I have a condition too.”
“Go ahead.” Qin Yushen nodded with interest, his phoenix eyes glittering like polished agate, irresistibly captivating.
“It’s fine to team up, but you have to find me first.” Song Yan Ning had a sly smile in her eyes. There were quite a few people participating in this task, and she doubted he could find her among them all.
“Fine.” Qin Yushen nodded with a confident smile. He was certain he could find her; her eyes were unique.
Song Yan Ning raised her teacup, “Here’s to our successful cooperation.”
“To a successful cooperation!” Qin Yushen clinked his cup with Song Yan Ning, a hint of anticipation in his eyes. Teaming up with her on a task would definitely be interesting.
Seeing Song Yan Ning coming down from upstairs, Ling Yu quickly walked toward her, “Mumu.” He was still uncertain whether to stay and complete the task or to quit. In any case, he was sure he couldn’t win her over.
Song Yan Ning smiled slightly, “I’ve already spoken with Ling Yiran; it’s for you to decide.” She and Ling Yiran were now partners, and Ling Yiran could decide how to complete the task. Thus, she didn’t necessarily have to make Ling Yiran fall in love with her according to the task’s settings. They could simply find the Crystal Stone together.
“Alright.” Ling Yu nodded. Since she had decided to go with Ling Yiran, there was no point in him staying here.
Zhou Qiqi saw how close Song Yan Ning and Ling Yu were and bit her lip before briskly walking up to Song Yan Ning, “Mumu, if you don’t like Brother Yichen, stop messing with him. I don’t want to see him hurt because of you.”
Song Yan Ning couldn’t help but laugh, playfully blinking at Ling Yu, “I’m off; you enjoy yourself.” There was still some time before the task ended. Whether he stayed or left depended on him.
Ling Yu gave Song Yan Ning a flat look. Thankfully, he wasn’t really Ling Yichen; otherwise, he would be depressed to death.
“I’ll wait for your triumphant return then.” Ling Yu patted Song Yan Ning on the shoulder, then left the system with a thought. He had someone behind him for sure, so even if he left now, he wouldn’t be eliminated.
