Mr. President Dotes On His Wife Crazily-Chapter 22
Chapter 22 You Are the Human, and So Are All Your Family Members
Lan Xiao was overwhelmed by mixed emotions. She was dumbfounded, shocked, in disbelief, and pleasantly surprised. It took her tens of seconds to come back to her senses.
Then, she became so happy that the tone of her voice changed.
She screamed sharply, “This is God’s kindness on me. Isn’t it like pennies from the heaven? This is more surprising and terrifying than winning a grand prize.”
“Miss Lan, don’t get too excited. Please maintain your noble demeanor. Please hurry up and click to accept the task. I have been idle for hundreds of years. I am super bored already. Finally, I can get a chance to do something serious,” the system prompted coldly.
“Puff!” However, Lan Xiao couldn’t help laughing, wondering if the system was a human or a robot.
After all, how could a system say such emotional words?
“Miss Lan... ”
Lan Xiao felt that the system sounded like it was gnashing its teeth.
She didn’t dare to mess with the system anymore, so she clicked the Quest Level 1.
“What do I need to do to finish this quest? What special features can I use now?” Lao Xiao rubbed her hands, and couldn’t wait to set out.
“In Quest Level 1, your task is to have physical contact with Wen Muchu. That includes holding hands, winking, and hugging intimately. The function value is composed of affection values. The more contact you make, the higher the affection value and the function value will be. Right now, you have the special ability to sense the light spots in a stone when you touch it. The brighter the light spots, the better the stone’s quality is,” explained the system. 𝑓𝑟eℯ𝒘𝗲𝑏n𝑜𝚟𝙚𝒍.𝒄o𝐦
“That’s all?” Lan Xiao asked, sounding frustrated.
“That’s all,” the system replied.
Lan Xiao felt like she was going crazy. “How can this be a quest? How can you call it a special ability? Other people’s tasks include doing good deeds, planting, eating, and cultivating martial arts. But for me, to put it bluntly, I only have to start and keep a relationship? While others are busy doing a lot of serious business, my only task is to love a man. As for the special ability you have mentioned, it is even weirder. While others can heal wounds and grow rare herbs, I can only sense the light spots of a stone? System, are you kidding me?”
The system was silent for about ten seconds.
It didn’t say anything until Lan Xiao was about to lose her temper.
“You are just being shortsighted,” it said.
Lan Xiao got so angry that she gasped and clenched her fists, itching to hit the system. “System, come out!”
“The Lan family is the No. 1 jeweler in Ling City. Your company has been running for a hundred years, and your family has been relying on jade for generations. Do you know that your great great great grandfather had relied on a stone to bring the Lan family to its current state of affairs? To be able to identify the jade quality in the gambling stones, you need to have a clairvoyant ability. Now, how can you dislike such a powerful ability? Do you also know that the Lan family is between hammer and anvil now?” the system said.
“The heyday of your family has already passed. And with the help of some villains, it continues to gradually decline. With the special ability that you have, you can do a lot of things. Shortsighted girl, are you sure you don’t want it? What’s more, you just need to get in touch with Wen Muchu to increase the affection value. It’s a good deal for you, isn’t it? You have gotten yourself such a lucky deal. Are you sure you don’t want it?” the system continued.
“You are the daughter of the owner of No. 1 jeweler, but you don’t know jade at all. Others laughed at you because you have once recognized the top-grade emerald jadeite as a glassy type jadeite. Do you want to be a laughingstock for the rest of your life? Think about dignity, reputation, and family glory. Are you sure you don’t want them?” added the hard-hitting system relentlessly.
The system was right. Lan Xiao had once mistaken an emerald jadeite for a plastic jadeite. Obviously, she knew nothing about this gemstone. She was simply an idiot in this field. 𝘧𝗿ee𝚠𝙚𝙗𝑛o𝚟𝐞l.𝐜૦𝗺
But was it proper to attack and ridicule her so mercilessly?
Her expression froze. She asked anxiously, “Are you really a system and not a human?”
“You are the human, and so are all your family members!” replied the system at once.
