Chapter 168: After Modification: Chapter 168 - Teammates Like Pigs

"Fourth Brother, how about this one?"

"It’s fine."

"And this one?"

"Not bad. Sit properly inside, be careful not to fall."

"Oh."

With a pouting mouth, Bi Xia obediently sat on the handle of the cart, playing with the pendant while her eyes wandered to the young man picking items to the side.

Unintentionally or not, Bi Xia suddenly noticed that the young man was also wearing a hooded short-sleeve shirt today. Bi Xia’s was gray, and the young man’s was black. The dark pants highlighted his long legs, with one hand in his pocket and the other lightly stretched out, carefully examining a can from the shelf.

Tilting her head slightly, Bi Xia clicked her tongue lightly. Wearing a suit made him look mature, but without it, he seemed younger. No matter what he wore, he pulled it off well, each outfit having its own flavor. How come all the good things went to Fourth Brother?

[Mainly because of his face,] 007 suddenly interjected.

’Eh,’ Bi Xia casually picked up items in the cart, ’What made you pop up? The sun rising in the west?’

[Hehe,] 007 chuckled smugly, [Soon, this system will be able to appear openly anytime!]

Bi Xia raised an eyebrow, ’What, getting an upgrade?’

[Exactly! I’ve been diligently absorbing the shared experiences from the affection points, and I just compiled a list of tasks during your recent live stream without you noticing. Now the experience points are pouring in, I’m ecstatic!]

’So, the experience points are sufficient now?’

[Yes.]

’What a pity,’ Bi Xia shook her head regretfully.

[Why?] 007 was puzzled.

Bi Xia glanced at Qin Zhan’s back, ’I won’t be able to enjoy moments of peace without you anymore. In the future, when Fourth Brother and I go on dates, you’ll be the third wheel. What a shame~’

007: ... Heartbreak!

[Haha,] 007 rolled its eyes, [Wait until you tell him you’re a girl before you talk about dating.]

’What’s the rush? Didn’t you hear? Fourth Brother wants to figure it out on his own. I also want to see his expression the day he finds out I’m a girl.’

[Be careful if he falls for you as a guy! If that happens, you’ll have to turn him back straight!]

’Thanks for the reminder,’ Bi Xia’s red lips curled into a confident smile, ’Don’t worry, with Fourth Brother’s personality, he wouldn’t care if I’m a guy or a girl. As long as I’m Bi Xia, he’ll like me.’

’And I’m the type to pursue what I like. If he then feels I deceived him and gets angry, I’ll tie him up and force him to accept it. Then, based on the principle that once I’ve had him, I’ll take responsibility for him, I’ll hold him tight. How’s that? Aren’t we a perfect match.’

[Haha,] 007 forced a smile, [I just think you two are both freaks. You can harm each other, at least the world will be more peaceful.]

[Also, I’ve noticed you’re becoming less like the naive, innocent person you used to be. And you even know about forced relationships now...]

’Oh, that,’ Bi Xia blinked, ’I asked Sister Luo and Zhao Wenxin for some romance drama resources. They’re pretty good. I’d recommend them to you if you have time. Much more interesting than the White Snake legend.’

[Huh?]

’Like the "I love you but you don’t love me, so I tie you up and make sure you’re all mine" type of plots. Clapping during arguments is just too explosive,’ Bi Xia shrugged, ’But a bit too melodramatic.’

007: ... What kind of dramas are they recommending?!

Suddenly, Bi Xia’s body stiffened, feeling a piercing noise in her nerves. Propping herself up on the handle with one hand, she clutched her head with the other, closed her eyes tightly, and let out a muffled groan.

’007, what’s happening?’

[Oh no!] 007 exclaimed, [I was so busy bickering with you, I forgot the important thing!]

[I just initiated the upgrade. I popped out to tell you. Quickly find a secluded place. There’s five minutes left for preparation. During the upgrade, all system items will be temporarily inactive.]

[In other words, the gender hiding device will be ineffective then!]

"Dammit!" Hearing 007’s words, Bi Xia cursed, "You’re really a pig teammate! Next time, can you tell me before upgrading, or let me choose the time!"

Taking a deep breath to endure the pain in her head, Bi Xia glanced at Qin Zhan who was still picking items, then jumped off the shopping cart. She asked 007 to locate the supermarket restroom and quickly headed there.

[Three minutes left.]

"I’ll remember this, 007!" Biting her teeth, Bi Xia ran to the restroom as fast as she could.
