Ruling the Historical Romance Novel as the Female Supporting Character-Chapter 58: The Gullible System
[Why can’t you do it? If you try your best, you can definitely do it!] 666 was both angry and anxious, desperately trying to persuade her.
However, Su Yijia remained unmoved. Instead, she let out a weak hum and said, "You system makes it sound so simple! These old professors are all national-level figures. Even my uncle Xia wouldn’t know the name of this old professor, let alone where he is right now. Even if he did know, do you think he would make such a basic mistake and tell me information that I shouldn’t know? Do you expect me to trace those outsiders and catch them red-handed, just as they’re about to do something bad? Do you think I’m too capable, or do you think these professionally trained people are beneath me?"
[It’s precisely because it’s difficult that there are such great rewards!] 666 continued to argue, sticking to its point.
Su Yijia couldn’t be bothered to argue with it anymore. She simply sat down on a reclining chair next to Qin Kaize, swinging leisurely.
They had extended an extension cord from the room, and the electric fan was placed next to them, blowing cool air. In front of the electric fan, there was a wooden stool with a large block of ice on it. The fan’s breeze blew over a basin, bringing refreshing coolness that made people almost fall asleep.
[Host! Host?] 666 saw that she had no intention of responding and weakly called out.
After calling a few times without any response, it felt like a choking sensation in its voice.
[Fine! I’ll give you a hint. Alright?] 666 said with some reluctance.
However, Su Yijia still didn’t respond.
666’s voice was full of grievances as it continued.
[Aren’t you being a bit too much? This mission still requires you to make some effort on your own to consider it accomplished. Otherwise, wouldn’t you just be given a golden finger for free?]
"What do you mean ’given to me for free’? Do I have to find a reason to go out? I can’t beat those people, and I also have to figure out how to persuade Gao Huabin to bring some people with me. Not only do I have to come up with a reason to go to the location of the old professor, but I also have to avoid being detected by outsiders. When the outsiders take action against the old professor and rescue him, only then will my mission be considered complete. You’re just giving me a detailed address and denying all my efforts. You guys are even more ruthless than a loan shark." Su Yijia complained.
thought about her words and realized that she had a point. It chuckled awkwardly and quickly provided Su Yijia with the detailed address of the old professor.
Looking at the additional line of text on the prompt panel, Su Yijia’s long eyelashes trembled slightly. It seemed that this system had much more authority than she had initially imagined, and it was quite easy to persuade.
Sitting up straight, she waved to Gao Huabin with a reluctant expression. "Sister-in-law, can you come here for a moment?"
Gao Huabin put down the dishes he was washing and hurried over. "What’s the matter, sister-in-law?"
"I need to go out for something. How about you accompany me and bring a few more people for safety?" Su Yijia didn’t hide her intentions and directly stated her purpose.
Gao Huabin was startled and quickly shook his head. "No, absolutely not! Our leader specifically instructed that for at least the next five days, you cannot go out, sister-in-law."
"But I have many things to do! I promised my eldest uncle that I would go to the supply and marketing cooperative with him today and hand over my work to him. If I don’t go, their family might be turned upside down. And two days ago, I ordered some medicine from the pharmacy. Due to those people, the pharmacy closed early. I need some special medicine, not the ordinary kind. These are rare and precious items, and I really need them to be effective. If someone else buys them before me, I don’t know when I’ll have a chance to get them again. Also, I need to go to the countryside to pick an old hen. Since Kaize has a 30-year-old ginseng, it’s perfect for making chicken soup. It’s the best nourishment at this time."
