QWTBWASIFOC Chapter 67

Having escaped the clutches of the doctor, Gu Changli lay listlessly on the now-clean hospital bed, expressionlessly swallowing the detox pill provided by System 143.
This body had been poisoned twice, killing two people!
The debts of Noah and Lin Qingning could wait; he would deal with the mastermind after leaving the hospital.
For now, he should focus on recovering!
System 143 slumped on the soft sofa, munching on small biscuits and happily watching cartoons.
“Little Grey is so cute, I kind of want to change my skin~”
The system, sporting a calico cat skin, opened the system store and stared longingly at the various expensive skins.
Its initial 500 points were long gone.
As for the points earned from the previous two missions, it had saved up a little, totaling a little over two thousand, but that was far from enough to buy a new skin.
It seemed it could only look, not buy.
If its host completed the two missions in this world, it might be able to give it a try!
System 143 immediately sat up, startled from its near-death experience.
Rubbing its cat paws together, it said ingratiatingly, “[My kind and beautiful boss host, when are we going to start doing missions?]”
“[If you have any instructions, just ask!]”
The cat system, green with envy for points and skins, patted its chest and said heroically, “[I guarantee I’ll be responsive and do what I say. If I can’t do it myself, I’ll pull in outside help to make it work.]”
Gu Changli raised an eyebrow. “There’s no need for that.”
“Noah’s request isn’t difficult. Just go to school and become the strongest mecha pilot in the Empire. As for Lin Qingning’s wish, that’s easy too.”
“I’ve probably narrowed down the range of the culprit. I just need to investigate carefully to identify the person and then take revenge. Cultivating is just something I’ll do along the way.”
Mecha technology in one hand, Taoist magic in the other.
His future life would surely be lively, with technology and metaphysics combined in one person.
Hearing the host’s words, System 143 felt useless and lay back down, continuing to munch on its biscuits.
“[Okay, call me anytime if you need anything!]”
Lying on the hospital bed, Gu Changli glanced at the lazy and pleasure-loving cat system, feeling that he probably wouldn’t need it.
This system was even lazier than his White Tiger disciple!
At least the disciple he had trained in the Canglan World only liked to avoid work and pass it on to others, but he was capable of handling those tasks.
Here, Immortal Lord Yuhua had something to say.
‘Master, I’m not very capable either. I also need a super-competent Master to take on the work. I also want to lie in my palace and eat and drink.’
Unfortunately, Immortal Lord Yuhua couldn’t convince Gu Changli and could only take office miserably.
‘Ahhh! Who even likes working!’
Withdrawing his gaze, Gu Changli closed his heavy eyelids, pulled the slipping blanket over himself, and went to sleep first. Everything could wait until he woke up.
Far away on the Imperial Capital Star, Zhou Xiuran received the news from his subordinates that his precious son was hospitalized and almost couldn’t hold back his tears.
“I told you to take good care of him, but you actually took him to the hospital!”
“My baby, Daddy is coming right away!”
This Second Prince, who had been widowed for thirteen years, felt heartbroken at the thought of his precious son suffering outside. The sadness in his heart couldn’t be stopped.
“Wuwuwu, baby, wait for Daddy!”
Zhou Xiuran took a private starship to the pleasant and beautiful planet of Kerankosi overnight, his mind filled with various thoughts.
My poor child, father and son meet but do not know each other.
Who told his son to lose his memory! Not only did he not recognize his old father, but he also didn’t remember anyone he knew, and he even had a hint of autism.
Even the purple eyes that represented the royal identity had changed, directly from violet to black, and his mental strength had plummeted from SS-level to A-level.
The lively and cheerful only child had become decadent and gloomy.
That was the only child he and his wife had, and also the precious son at the tip of his heart.
He had taken his son to see many doctors and had taken a lot of medicine, but nothing worked. The most terrible thing was that his son had suicidal thoughts and world-weary ideas.
Helpless, he could only send his son out of the Imperial Capital Star to live in a peaceful environment.
Fortunately, this method was indeed effective.
His son had a change in the new environment, but gradually fell in love with the mecha pilot industry, and he naturally supported his son, so he changed his identity and went through the admission procedures.
Now that the child had finally graduated from middle school and was about to enter the Seville Military Academy on the Imperial Capital Star, he was only one step away from seeing him every day.
But there was an accident in the middle, and his son was sick!
Damn it!! Were all the people I arranged around my son eating dry rice!
Which bastard dared to attack my baby?
The more he thought about it, the angrier Zhou Xiuran became, and his face sank at a visible speed. His fingers clenched tightly, and the names of all his political enemies flashed through his mind quickly.
Mu Chuan, Zhou Yiran, Zhou Moran…
Could it be that an enemy discovered the baby’s location? Or did his elder brother and third younger sister have itchy skin and were courting death? Or did his imperial father think life was too peaceful?
The Second Prince’s guards, who were traveling with him, had their hair standing on end and stood stiffly in place.
They weren’t afraid of the Second Prince’s jokes and glib tongue, but they were afraid of the Second Prince’s sudden silence.
If the Second Prince was quiet, he must be up to no good.
Either the people around him would be unlucky, or his opponents would be unlucky. No matter which side was unlucky, they, as guards, would be repeatedly tortured by the Second Prince.
When it came to the ability to cause trouble, the Second Prince was definitely in first place.
Zhou Xiuran, who was being complained about by his own people, didn’t care whether his son’s illness had anything to do with his elder brother and third younger sister, and very directly put the blame on them.
“Elder brother! Third younger sister! You two jinxes!”
“My baby is so well-behaved and cute, it must be because you, as elders, have no compassion, which is why my baby ended up in the hospital.”
A certain guard reminded him, “Your Highness, Shen Tan sent a message saying that the little prince is fine for the time being, and they are looking for the cause of the little prince’s unconsciousness.”
Zhou Xiuran lazily raised his eyes. “Fine for the time being? Where is my baby fine!”
“He’s unconscious and in the hospital, so he must have suffered outside.”
As he spoke, he showed a ‘kind’ and pleasant expression, and said with a smile, “Go blow up the third younger sister’s fish pond for me, and send the third younger sister a green hat, and then have Ji Kai set the house on fire when the elder brother and third younger sister’s husband are getting into bed to add to the fun.”
A certain guard brother: “…Yes!”
Sob sob sob, if he had known this earlier, he shouldn’t have come out with the Second Prince today!
He didn’t dare to imagine how lively tomorrow would be!
Zhou Xiuran curled the corners of his mouth, “Aren’t you leaving yet? Are you waiting for me to personally send you over there!”
“I’m leaving right away.” The guard brother, who was miserably disliked, left with a bitter face and took the aircraft stored on the starship to return to the Imperial Capital Star to cause trouble.
Wuwuwu, his life was so hard!
Zhou Xiuran retracted his gaze upon seeing this, and the murderous aura in his eyes returned to concern for his son. He paced back and forth anxiously.
“Baby, you must be well!”
“Even if you don’t remember Daddy, even if you don’t recognize me, you must not have an accident!”
“After your mother died, you’re all I have left.”
