177: I'm going back.

Manager Wang, along with a group of waiters, respectfully saw them off.

"Miss Nan, you are now an SSS-level member of our Zhou's Jewelry. Please visit us often in the future!"

Nan Zhisui was still feeling a bit dazed.

She had indeed collected a lot of pearls from the seabed. If each one sold for hundreds of thousands or even a million, then she... wouldn't she be filthy rich!

(Manifesting wealth!)

...Mother Nan's mind was also in a bit of a trance.

Suddenly, 18 million had appeared in her bank account.

18 million! Not 1,800, but with so many zeros after it. She had counted them eight times before confirming the income!

Could they buy a villa just like that?

Nan Zhisui said from beside her, "Mom, buy a villa. Don't worry about the money. If it's not enough, there's more. We still have plenty of pearls and coral."

"There's coral too?"

"Yes."

"And there are still many of those large pearls?"

"Mm, they were all given to me by your sons-in-law. We could even use the large pearls for interior decoration."

Mother Nan was lightheaded from the massive wealth. She said dizzily, "Then I'll buy a huge house. Each of my seven sons-in-law must have a room."

"After all, your brother Nan Zhinian grew up with you, so we'll leave a guest bedroom for him too."

"The two of us will take a room on the first floor. You need a room, and the Cubs need rooms too..."

...Father Nan and Mother Nan were enjoying taking care of the Cubs more and more. Today, they took the Cubs to the amusement park again.

Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, two days had passed. There wasn't much time left.

Nan Zhisui began taking her younger brother to purchase supplies.

Nan Zhinian had good connections and helped her find a factory that manufactured fireworks.

Nan Zhisui purchased spring thunder, various fireworks, potassium nitrate, sulfur, and smoke bombs at a high price.

"Sis, are you planning to make explosives?"

While looking up how to make explosives, Nan Zhisui replied, "That's right."

Nan Zhinian: "..."

"Then you'd better keep them well-stored in that space of yours. Whatever you do, don't take them out here. After all, that's a serious crime."

Nan Zhisui let out a chuckle. "Okay."

Nan Zhinian asked, "Sis, is there anything else I can help with?"

After hesitating for a moment, Nan Zhisui pulled her chair closer to Nan Zhinian and asked, "Zhinian, do you know how to deal with a System?"

"Deal with a System?"

Nan Zhisui nodded.

Nan Zhinian's eyes lit up. He said, "Wait for me to make a few calls. I have a few buddies who are interested in this stuff!"

Before long, several young and handsome college boys appeared before Nan Zhisui!

She sliced fruit for her brother's classmates, and they all politely called her "Sister."

"Zhinian's sister, how are you so beautiful!"

"Nan Zhinian, you have such a beautiful sister and you actually hid her from your brothers? Are we even friends?!"

Nan Zhinian was very arrogant: "You guys have no chance. My sister not only has a husband, she even has children!"

"Ah??!! How can this be??!!" There was a chorus of wails.

Nan Zhisui was amused by her brother's classmates. After a while, the room full of young people began their discussion about the System.

"Sister, is that System of yours an intelligent System?"

Nan Zhisui thought about it and replied, "It can think. It feels like it has logic and intelligence."

"It assigns tasks and threatens people."

"If tasks aren't completed, it punishes you. It can also provide task supplies, and sometimes there are rewards after a task is finished."

Yi Lei: "Sounds like playing a game?"

Nan Zhinian rubbed his chin and asked, "Sis, if it's a game... does it have bugs? Have you tried exploiting bugs?"

Nan Zhisui blinked.

Bugs? That actually provided a line of thought worth considering.

The young college students continued to chime in one after another.

"If it's intelligent, I actually have an idea, though I don't know if I should say it," Yu Taiyu said.

Tan Chen said, "Just say it."

"As far as the AI I know goes, none of them can distinguish right from wrong."

"So, flooding it with a massive amount of junk information is also a powerful way to attack it."

"When it doesn't know which piece of information is correct, it can't make a judgment."

"Even if it does make a judgment, it's very likely to be a faulty execution plan."

The college boys' minds were indeed very active.

Nan Zhisui's eyes lit up again.

Tan Chen said, "Zhinian's sister, actually, if it's a System like a game where you complete tasks..."

"As a player, besides the bugs Nan Zhinian mentioned, there are two other ways to attack the System."

Nan Zhisui asked excitedly, "Which two?"

"Information overload and..."

Tan Chen said seriously, "Creating rule conflicts."

...Nan Zhinian's classmates chatted for a good while before heading home.

That night, Father Nan, Mother Nan, and Nan Zhisui went to sleep with the Cubs.

However, Nan Zhinian was still using his computer to look up information. The meticulous younger brother was preparing some things for his sister... Just like that, the happy time flew by, and three days passed in the blink of an eye.

On the last day, Father Nan and Mother Nan woke up especially early.

Mother Nan and Father Nan worked together to prepare a lavish breakfast.

The Cubs happily ate the breakfast made by their grandparents.

Nan Zhisui ate a sandwich and drank milk while busy serving plates and taking care of the Cubs.

After a lively breakfast, Mother Nan pulled Nan Zhisui into the bedroom.

Mother Nan let out two long sighs before saying, "Sui Sui, tell Mom the truth. Since you're back this time, are you leaving today? Don't lie to me, the Cubs already told your dad and me."

At the mention of leaving, Nan Zhisui's heart tightened.

She couldn't bear it; she didn't want to leave either.

Seeing Nan Zhisui's low spirits, Mother Nan pulled her daughter into her arms. "Sigh..."

That motherly sigh contained so much reluctance and heartache.

"Sui Sui, don't be sad. In that world, you are the head of the household. It's time for you to do what you must do."

"Mom..."

"Don't worry about your father and me. Your brother Nan Zhinian is still at home."

"You've been so good to him and doted on him for so many years; it's only right that he does your part too."

"Besides, your father and I have our pensions. We can take care of ourselves."

Mother Nan held Nan Zhisui's shoulders and looked at her grown daughter. Tears still welled up as she choked out, "It's just... if you're unhappy in that world, Mom has no way to help or protect you... Mom is so worried..."

"Mom!"

Nan Zhisui hugged Mother Nan tightly. Mother Nan wiped her tears and said, "Mom shouldn't be so sentimental, I shouldn't make you cry."

Nan Zhisui shook her head.

"Can you come back again in the future?"

Nan Zhisui looked up and said seriously, "I definitely can."

"Next time I come back, I'll bring your handsome sons-in-law for you to see!"

Mother Nan held back her tears and said, "The Cubs said you have a space to store things. Your father and I bought a lot of stuff yesterday. Take it all with you. You love durian the most, so I bought several for you."

"A girl must change her underwear frequently. I bought many sets for you."

"They don't have sanitary pads over there; it must be inconvenient when your period comes. I bought several boxes for you. Take them all. And..."

With every word Mother Nan spoke, Nan Zhisui's reluctance grew.

"You must take good care of yourself, okay?"

Nan Zhisui's tears finally fell... Father Nan and Mother Nan had indeed bought an enormous amount of things, and Nan Zhisui packed everything away.

Nan Zhinian had been working at his computer from yesterday until today, his eyes rimmed with dark circles.

He quickly unplugged two hard drives and handed the computer and the drives to Nan Zhisui.

"Sis, these two hard drives—one contains a program from a friend of mine, you know the kind. He said it's pretty powerful. Breaking a System should be no problem. I don't know if he was bragging."

"The other hard drive is filled with a lot of junk data I pulled from the internet. I don't know if you'll need it, but take it all anyway."

Nan Zhisui gave her brother a heavy hug. "Thank you, Zhinian."

Nan Zhinian also hugged Nan Zhisui tightly. "Sis, if you can come back in the future, you must. I'll make a lot of money and buy a manor for you and my brothers-in-law!"

"Why buy a manor?"

"To live in, of course. There are so many people in our family; a villa would be too cramped. We need a manor!"

"You have ambition." As she spoke, Nan Zhisui broke into a smile through her tears.

Nan Zhinian touched her face. "It's good that you're smiling. Sis, are you leaving today?"

"You know too?"

"Mm-hmm, my good nephews told me everything."

Nan Zhisui nodded helplessly and gently.

Nan Zhinian hugged Nan Zhisui again. "Sister, I'll miss you. Really."

Mother Nan said, "There's still time. Sui Sui, send all the photos from your side to our family group of four, and then let's take some more photos together!"

"Okay!"

While sending photos of her beast husbands and Cubs in the Beast World to the group, Nan Zhisui looked at the pictures and reviewed her journey so far.

Looking back now, she had actually traveled such a long, long way.

Nan Zhinian set up the phone stand, and after setting the timer, he rushed into the middle of the group.

Everyone gestured together: "Cheese!"

...Finally, it was time for the return journey. The Cubs quickly stood together with Nan Zhisui.

Mother Nan leaned into Father Nan's arms, sobbing uncontrollably. Father Nan and Nan Zhinian were waving goodbye to Nan Zhisui.

Nan Zhinian, who had been happily preparing things for his sister, finally realized at the moment of her departure that she was really leaving.

"Zhinian, help me take good care of Mom and Dad!"

Since the beast god could send her back once, she would definitely have another chance to return!

She firmly believed she would be able to come back again!

"Sis!!!!!!!!" Nan Zhinian chased after her, only to see a burst of white light flare up beneath Nan Zhisui's feet, and everyone vanished.

"Sis!!! Don't go!!"

Belatedly, Nan Zhinian began to wail, unable to stop... As the white light flared, a question suddenly occurred to Nan Zhisui.

"Last time I crossed over, I stayed on Earth for five days, and five years passed in the Beast World."

"This time we stayed on Earth for three days. Will three years have passed in the Beast World?"

Star Mom didn't lie to everyone. The Earth plot was written relatively quickly, with many parts summarized, and it shouldn't be boring!

...Actually, I did originally think that 3 days would be 3 years.

But later, as I was writing, I felt there was no need to write it that way.

I still want to keep the tone a bit lighter.

So, 3 days is 3 days!

...The battle for mating rights is about to begin!!

Let's get competitive!
