260: Chapter 260: The System's "Romance Strategy Module"

In his surprise, Qian Mo was still the first to speak after finishing his sentence, "I'm sorry, I have a very important private matter to attend to this time, so I won't be able to accompany you..."

"It's fine, I'm actually in a similar situation..." Seeing his sincere apology, Xing Yaoyan felt a bit embarrassed. "Let's make plans for next time when we are both free..."

Since they both happened to be busy, they could just let this matter slide, and it wasn't anyone's fault. Qian Mo's apologetic attitude actually made her feel a bit uneasy...

"By the way..." Just then, Qian Mo suddenly spoke up again, "Xiao Yan... Youfeng City has been a bit unsettled lately..."

Xing Yaoyan understood. With his meticulous mind, he had long known about her desire for revenge, and this was his way of warning her...

But what of it? He couldn't control her anyway. Besides, the information obtained from Crystal Coin this time indicated that the period of the operation would be the absolute best time for revenge. She absolutely couldn't miss it, otherwise she would have to wait forever...

Still, on the surface, she smiled and agreed, "Alright, thanks for the warning. I won't take any risks. Although what needs to be paid back must be paid back, I've waited this long, so I won't rush things."

Hearing this, Qian Mo seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and nodded quickly.

At the same time, looking at the beautifully smiling girl, he suddenly couldn't help but reach out to hold her hands.

The girl didn't dodge; instead, she simply placed her hands into his.

This action actually made Qian Mo hesitate. It was completely different from what he had expected.

"Coward... why is it that every time I take the initiative, you get scared~"

Xing Yaoyan's voice trailed off with a playful lilt, a teasing smile on her face. She wasn't shy at all, looking exactly like someone teasing a pure, innocent young virgin.

[Ding! Host, don't wimp out! She's teasing you like this, why don't you just go all-in and show her what you're made of!]

Seeing his host still hesitating, the System was the first to lose patience, immediately cheering Qian Mo on in his ear.

"I..."

It was one thing to be teased by Xiao Yan, but even the System looked down on him. How could he endure this?

Steeling his heart, Qian Mo hesitated no longer and immediately grabbed her outstretched hand.

"Mmh~"

He didn't control his strength well, and combined with the passive trait of the Star Body that suppressed the opponent's strength, this action caused Xing Yaoyan to let out a soft, pained gasp.

"Sorry... I got a bit excited..."

"It's fine... I... I feel pretty good..."

?

Looking at her unusually flushed, pretty face partially hidden under the shadow of her bangs, a huge question mark rose in Qian Mo's mind:

What does she mean by "I feel pretty good"...

What he didn't know was that Xing Yaoyan was currently experiencing a strange sensation: in the past, she was always the one suppressing others, but now, only in Qian Mo's hands did she experience the feeling of being suppressed... To be honest, this novel experience... was incredibly addictive to her...

"Xiao Yan? Are you really okay..."

Qian Mo's voice rang out again.

Xing Yaoyan looked up, and what met her eyes was the youth's concerned face.

He seemed to have said a lot, as if he was relieved to finally see her react.

"I..." Xing Yaoyan felt her cheeks burning like fire, as if they were about to be fully cooked.

"Oh... let go quickly. I have to leave in a moment. If you hold me like this, I can't leave at all..."

In her emotional state, Xing Yaoyan spoke a bit haltingly, her tone even carrying a hint of pleading. She was a completely different person from her usual assertive self.

Qian Mo hurriedly and obediently let go of her hand, taking a well-behaved step back.

However, what he didn't notice was that after his honest retreat, a hidden look of regret flashed in the girl's eyes.

[Ding! Host, you're too useless! Xing Yaoyan's words just now weren't firm at all; she was clearly playing hard to get! How could you be so obedient!]

[Ding! To help the host get a taste... bah, to help the host face his own heart, this System is specially launching the "love strategy module". Every time you contact your current lover "Xing Yaoyan", a random time-limited quest will be triggered, and you must choose at least one to complete. PS: There will be punishments if the chosen quest is not completed!]

"No! Wait, this..."

Before Qian Mo could finish speaking, the System's voice suddenly rang out again: [Detecting the physiological state of the host and his lover Xing Yaoyan, random quest generating...]

"Holy crap!"

Qian Mo cried out in surprise, which startled the White-haired girl in front of him.

Before Xing Yaoyan could react, the youth in front of her suddenly retreated several steps, instantly putting a large distance between them.

[Ding! The state of the two does not match intimate behavior, quest generation stopped... Host, you are truly useless...]

Whether it was Qian Mo's illusion or not, he actually detected a tone of exasperation from the System's voice, as if it was disappointed in his lack of initiative.

"Young Miss Xing Yan... I also have some things to do immediately, so I'll leave first!" Because they were far apart, Qian Mo still used the alias Xing Yaoyan was disguised under.

Looking at his disheveled state as he fled in panic, after her initial surprise, Xing Yaoyan slowly revealed a smile that showed she had expected this.

She knew Qian Mo and what kind of person he was.

Although he was still timid and hesitant when it came to relationships, that forceful grip just now was still a big step forward...

Of course, she also liked his cowardly, easily bullied appearance...

"What are you looking at? Don't you have your own things to do?"

Xing Yaoyan returned to her familiar state, sweeping her gaze over the surrounding onlookers with an overwhelming aura, forcing everyone to hold their breath and quickly disperse.

After doing this, Xing Yaoyan paid them no more attention, instead using "Swap" to arrive in a hidden room.

Quickly changing into the white robes of a Star Cult Priest, Xing Yaoyan looked down at her palm. Following the Star Cult's special method of channeling power, she slowly infused the Breath of the Abyss from her spiritual sea into her golden Power Of Will.

Perhaps because she had previously tried and succeeded in the Arena of the Kingdom of Myriad Demons under a stroke of Opportunity, even though this was only her first official attempt, she still completed it flawlessly.

"But isn't it said that power infused with the Breath of the Abyss is very disgusting? Why don't I feel that way at all? Instead, it feels quite refreshing..." Xing Yaoyan shook her head in confusion.

"Knock, knock!"

Suddenly, a hurried knocking came from outside the door.
