Chapter 34: Forced to Complete the Mission

Unfortunately, An Yu was inexplicably pestered by some random guy who kept asking this and that, preventing her from focusing on her phone.

So no matter what messages Ning Dongli sent, An Yu couldn’t reply.

Just a short while ago…

Right after sending a message to Ning Dongli to switch games, An Yu suddenly noticed a light screen flickering in front of her, invisible to others.

【Survival Mission: Critical plot detected. Survival mission automatically triggered.】

【The heroine is about to gain full recognition from the An family parents, which will inevitably threaten the host’s safety. Host must obtain the An family parents’ recognition without completely enraging the heroine, achieving a balance of power.】

An Yu: …?

Why did the system suddenly assign a mission? And…

So many requirements—no enraging An Qing, yet still needing to balance power.

An Yu read carefully, nodded expressionlessly, seeming to be seriously considering it.

After confirming multiple times, An Yu lowered her head again and fiddled with her phone.

Not doing it. Didn’t want the An family parents’ recognition.

Besides, the system didn’t mention any penalty, so there was no penalty. 

Even if there were, she wouldn’t do it, but none was better.

【……】

Seeing An Yu’s reaction, the system felt a wave of speechlessness.

But no matter how speechless, there was one thing it still had to say.

【Host, this is a system-auto-triggered mission. Though there’s no penalty for not doing it, it is still recommended that the host complete it.】

The implication: this wasn’t issued by me, but something that appears when the plot reaches this point.

Still, the system hoped An Yu would do the mission. 

Even without penalty, failing a survival mission could put the host in a very bad position.

“Mmm, not doing it.”

An Yu softly responded, continuing to fiddle with her phone.

And An Yu’s reaction didn’t surprise the system at all. 

The one who would do it wouldn’t be An Yu.

What could the system do? 

It had chosen this host; it had to spoil her.

It could only wait to spank her hard later and make her stop slacking!

But just as An Yu wanted to continue gaming, someone interrupted her.

“Hello, you’re An Yu from the An family, right?”

Hearing someone call her, An Yu subconsciously looked up.

It was a stranger, a man with a sinister look who clearly didn’t seem like a good person.

An Yu frowned. 

She didn’t want to deal with strange men, waved her hand, and prepared to leave the spot.

It was a shame; she had finally found this hard-to-notice corner.

But a sudden sound made An Yu stop in her tracks.

【Obtained recognition from An family parents. Successfully achieved balance of power. Survival mission completed.】

【Rewards settling…】

An Yu: ?

System: ?

What did it mean by mission completed? 

What did it mean by successfully balancing power? 

She, An Yu, hadn’t done anything—this was slander!

Subconsciously looking toward the stage, the reborn heroine An Qing was staring at her. 

Beneath that perfect smile was unconcealed menace.

“Ugh.”

Where was the completion? 

The heroine looked super angry! 

But she really hadn’t provoked An Qing!

Now the system had no penalty, but An Qing was about to give one!

And why?

Could playing a game really upset her? So unreasonable!

【Host!】

A somewhat excited voice from the system suddenly rang in her mind.

An Yu was puzzled. What now?

【Host, that’s Chen Yu!】

After being tortured by An Yu’s gaming screen, the system felt it was going blind. 

But seeing Chen Yu suddenly woke it up.

How did this guy come straight to her?

And… more absurd than Chen Yu’s mysterious appearance—how was someone who shouldn’t even be at this banquet showing up early?

Because it had been slacking with An Yu, the system hadn’t paid attention to who was present.

Now that it looked…

Over there, the man standing beside An Qing, constantly glancing this way—wasn’t that the male lead Chen Guang?!

What in the world was going on?

Why were the male and female leads gathered so quickly?

And its host was clearly slacking—how did she suddenly become the center of attention?

The system had only slacked off a little, watched An Yu game a bit—how did the sky seem to collapse in the blink of an eye?

No wonder the survival mission completed so suddenly. 

The balance of power wasn’t between An Yu and An Qing, but between Chen Guang and Chen Yu.

Now Chen Yu was openly approaching An Yu…

In the eyes of the An family parents, it was as if Chen Yu had chosen An Yu, while Chen Guang had chosen An Qing.

After all, though Chen Guang was the male lead, others didn’t know that. 

To them, both were Chen family young masters—equally prestigious.

At the same time, An Yu also felt the sky collapsing. 

She clearly heard the name the system shouted.

Chen Yu—suspected loli-con, and the male lead’s older brother.

No wonder An Qing was angry; she thought An Yu was stealing her spotlight!

An Yu didn’t understand. Why did this guy suddenly come to her? 

Did loli-cons have loli radar? 

Could they find her even in a corner?

Loli-cons were terrifying. 

She had to run!

An Yu’s tiny body trembled slightly as she prepared to flee.

Meanwhile, right beside her, Chen Yu—completely unaware of An Yu’s abnormality—awkwardly scratched the back of his head.

He had acted on impulse and come over, but he really cared too much.

So today he had to ask.

“An Yu, can you tell me—which of you and An Qing is the older sister?”

An Yu halted her step, looked up at Chen Yu expressionlessly, her amber eyes filled with shock.

What kind of question was that?

Incomprehensible.

“Me.”

Though confused, if it was just this small matter, An Yu could answer.

From the system, she knew she was slightly older than An Qing.

After answering, An Yu took advantage of Chen Yu’s daze and instantly ran far away, hiding in another corner.

Whether he was a loli-con or not, run first.

Chen Yu, having received the answer, looked serious, brows tightly furrowed, hand covering his mouth.

To others, it seemed he was deep in thought.

In reality, Chen Yu was just holding back his excited heart.

Oh my god…

Cold loli older sister and possessive teenage younger sister… this was a perfect match!

Did anyone understand this contrast and forbidden allure?

This ultimate combination set Chen Yu’s yuri soul ablaze!

All along, Chen Yu had a secret even his closest confidants didn’t know.

From way back, he had no interest in romance. No matter who pursued him, he only found it boring.

Until…

Chen Yu accidentally came across a yuri doujinshi.

From then on, he opened the door to a new world. Only then did he realize—he wasn’t uninterested in romance.

He was only uninterested in romance happening to himself.

Because… he wasn’t a beautiful girl!

Ever since, Chen Yu believed that true beautiful romance should only happen between beautiful girls and beautiful girls!
