Chapter 9 Yan Mo

The system analyzed the data comparison of Xia Yue completing the task personally and in collaboration with the state.

[Host, you're right. When should we turn in?] The system, after analyzing the data, found that the probability of completing the task in collaboration with the state was higher.

"You'll have to let me find someone to introduce us. After all, you're pretty important. If you were discovered by someone with ill intentions, I'd be in danger." Xia Yue hesitated for a while before saying this.

[Hurry up then, and don't lie to me anymore.] The system understood but still worried that Xia Yue was stalling.

"Okay, I'll see if I know anyone in the higher-ups.' Xia Yue nodded.

She then picked up her phone, checking her social media groups of classmates from childhood to adulthood, or elder contacts, while thinking.

After an hour of scrolling, she noticed a name in her high school classmates' group, her eyes immediately lit up.

"Him. I just don't know if he'll accept my friend request." Xia Yue said, a hint of uncertainty in her voice as she sent him a friend request.

[Who is this?] The system popped up and asked.

"His name is Yan Mo. His family is one of the top ones in Kyoto, wealthy and influential. Crucially, he's also handsome. Many of our female classmates and some male ones idolized him. A lot of people liked him.

Back then, I also liked looking at his photos; he was the face of so many of my book's main characters." Xia Yue laughed as she said this to the system.

[So why contact him?] The system asked.

"I recall someone in our high school group mentioning that he got into a military academy. Given his family background and his abilities, his current status should be quite notable. He's upright, a good person, so he should be able to help. But he doesn't really like chatting with strangers, so I'm a bit nervous about this sudden friend request. I don't have any other way to contact him." Xia Yue explained, feeling a bit uncertain.

[Should I help you find his number?] The system offered.

"You can do that? You can hack the internet?" Xia Yue asked.

[Yes, my system is much more advanced than your current internet. I can find it as long as I'm online.]

"Oh, let's wait a bit. If he doesn't agree by tonight, then you can look for it." Xia Yue felt that would be a bit of an invasion of privacy, so she decided to hold off.

[Alright, Xia Yue]

Meanwhile, Yan Mo was convalescing at home, looking a bit decadent as he sat on his room terrace, gazing off into the distance.

When he heard his phone notification, he picked it up and saw a friend request.

Yuexia Touxian: Hello, senior Yan Mo, I'm your junior from high school, Xia Yue, I have a very, very important matter to discuss with you, related to the state. I hope you can accept it.

Yan Mo looked at the reason for the request, and furrowed his brow, uncertain about whether to accept. He'd previously had girls send similar requests only to confess to him.

As he was about to accept the request after several minutes of contemplating, a doctor knocked on the door and entered. He sighed and put down the phone. The doctor was here to conduct his regular health checks and help with his recovery. He didn't want to retire.

The checkup and recovery exercise took two hours.

Meanwhile, Xia Yue was leisurely having snacks and watching TV.

Only the system was anxious, many times it wanted to directly give Xia Yue Yan Mo's contact number and tell her to call him directly.
