The System's cheerful voice traveled into her ears. "Yo! Did the host miss me? "
Jiang Pengji said mercilessly, "No. Without you, I don't know how peaceful my ears would be."
After the System's upgrade, it seemed to have become more humane and thick-skinned. It wasn't like before, when it would whine when it was choked.
After the upgrade, the System understood that it was its host, and they couldn't be separated. No matter how much Jiang Pengji disliked it, she needed it. As an omnipotent System, it could fulfill all of its host's ambitions and wishes.
Jiang Pengji dealt with Qiguan Rang while she asked the System, "You said you needed 12 hours to upgrade, but why do I feel like you've been upgrading for almost 24 hours? I thought I'd have to stream today as usual. "
The System said evasively, "The estimation of the upgrade time was wrong, so it took more time than expected."
Jiang Pengji laughed in her heart, but she didn't continue to ask about it. Instead, she asked something else.
"You said you've upgraded once. You can't be as useless as before, right?" Jiang Pengji never hid her disdain for the System. The System had been sad many times because of it. "Tell me about it. If you're still as useless as before, I think you should upgrade again. Time isn't a problem. You can upgrade as long as you want."
Being ridiculed so mercilessly by her, the System became unhappy again.
The System said proudly, "You ignored me yesterday, but you might not be able to reach me today!"
Listening to the System's tone, Jiang Pengji seemed to be able to imitate its proud expression.
"Oh? Tell me about it? I want to know to what extent a useless System can be upgraded. "
The System suppressed its urge to explode. It pretended to cough twice and cleared its throat. "Then the host should listen carefully. In order to provide a more complete and convenient service for the host, the upgrade added a humanized emotion section. This will make it easier for us to communicate. To increase the host's popularity as a streamer and increase the viewability of the stream, the real-time task section has also been added. "
"The real-time task section?"
Jiang Pengji frowned in her heart, but she didn't show any signs of abnormality.
The System said excitedly, "The System will analyze the people and things that the Host has experienced in real time and issue temporary missions from time to time to guide the Host to integrate into this era more perfectly. When the Host completes the missions perfectly, the Host will receive additional rewards."
Jiang Pengji went straight to the point and asked, "Can I refuse such a mission?"
The System quickly replied, "No, this is a mission automatically added to the mission list. Completing it will only bring benefits to the Host."
Jiang Pengji sneered in her heart. There would be no harm in completing the task, but what if she refused to complete it or failed the task?
Jiang Pengji was disgusted from the bottom of her heart when someone else's will was forced upon her.
The System became more capricious. It sensitively discovered that Jiang Pengji was not enthusiastic about this matter. She even rejected and hated it.
It said carefully, "The host seems to be very unwilling to do this kind of task."
"Why should I be willing to do a task that is forced upon me? What if the mission's contents conflict with my own wishes? What if I refuse to go on the mission? Or will the mission fail? " Jiang Pengji asked a few questions in a row. The System had no time to answer. "I don't care about the rewards for completing the mission. Who allowed you to make such a decision on your own?"
The System was speechless. Then, its voice became more forceful. "I hope that the Host will not be capricious. This is the most correct and most beneficial outcome after countless calculations. As your System, I will only be good if you are good. I hope you can understand this. "
Jiang Pengji snorted coldly. "You can give me the mission if you want. It's my business whether I do it or not."
The System lowered its voice and said seriously, "Host, please do not be capricious. Completing the mission will make your future path smoother. This is the conclusion I came up with after countless calculations. I hope that you will not disappoint my good intentions. Real-time triggered missions are mainly for the Host's benefit. They will not harm you … "
Jiang Pengji dragged her voice. "I — WILL — NOT — DO — IT!"
The System was silent for a while and said earnestly, "If the Host insists on being capricious, you will regret it. You must know that benefits and risks coexist. There will be generous rewards for completing the mission. If you fail the mission or don't do it, you will have to bear the consequences of failing the mission. "
Jiang Pengji's thin lips curved. She lowered her eyes to hide the faint killing intent brewing in them.
The System's words caused her to rebel. She said it angrily.
"I'll bear the consequences. Do you think that I, Jiang Pengji, will be threatened?"
It was useless for the System to be anxious. Jiang Pengji had completely developed a rebellious mentality.
The more it looked forward to it, the more she was unwilling to do it.
In the end, the System could only say angrily, "My good intentions have been turned against me. Host, you will suffer greatly if you do this."
It thought that Jiang Pengji would be wild with joy, so the System took the liberty of downloading and upgrading the real-time triggered mission section to help the Host reach the peak of her life. It remembered that many Systems did the same thing. The Host's eyes went wide when she saw the mission reward.
The Host, on the other hand, was basically a donkey. She had a stubborn temper, but her reaction was so intense and determined.
Jiang Pengji only replied with one sentence.
"I'm tired today. I don't feel like streaming for now. Be quiet if there's nothing else. I have a headache."
The System wanted to use both carrot and stick on her to force her to submit?
Haha, the System did not seem to realize Jiang Pengji's true temperament.
Even her former teacher would not be able to do that, let alone a System of unknown origin, purpose, and behavior.
Qiguan Rang noticed that Jiang Pengji's face was a little pale.
"Are you not feeling well?"
Jiang Pengji answered weakly without opening her eyes.
"The ride is too bumpy. I have a headache."
She did have a headache. After the System upgrade, it was more annoying than she had expected.
Was the ride very bumpy?
Qiguan Rang was stunned. Could he say that compared to Master Cao's carriage, the Liu residence's carriage was much more stable?
The two of them were silent the whole way until the carriage stopped in front of the Liu's. It was already past dinner time.
Liu She and Wei Yuan were chatting happily. When they saw Jiang Pengji return with Qiguan Rang, they were both happy.
After exchanging some pleasantries, Wei Yuan stood up and said goodbye to Liu She.
Since they had achieved their goal, there was no need to stay in the Liu's house any longer.
Liu She stood up and saw them off. Jiang Pengji returned to her courtyard. She did not even change her clothes. She rolled onto the bed and fell asleep.
Before she could get sleepy, Nongqin's frightened voice came from outside the door.
"Langjun, the guest from the outer court is here to see you."
Jiang Pengji lifted her blanket and her face darkened.
