Chapter19

Trapped in a world full of code, in front of him was a huge computer screen. Xu Bin shouted in dissatisfaction, "What a mess! There is no flaw in it. How can it be considered a failure?"

The system's cold voice sounded, "Because Shen Ru Yu didn't see how you performed the oral sex. Because your wife had her back turned, she didn't see the specifics either, nor did she witness the scene of oral sex and swallowing. This flaw is considered a failure."

"If you're not satisfied… I can give you another chance to complete it!"

Xu Bin was taken aback for a moment, then thought for a while and sneered, "I believe in your judgment, but let's be reasonable."

"The system is the most objective and fair!"

Xu Bin immediately raised his eyebrows and said, "I believe you wouldn't intentionally play with me, but according to the literal meaning, I definitely completed the task. If there is a flaw, it's because the task wasn't specific enough when it was assigned."

"Not specific enough?"

"Performing oral sex and swallowing in front of my mother-in-law, isn't that making her witness her daughter being subjected to oral sex and swallowing…"

Xu Bin felt unsatisfied but also found a loophole. He eagerly said, "System, I'm not trying to nitpick, but I completed the task according to your literal meaning. If you had mentioned the difficulty earlier, I'm afraid I would have given up."

There was a long silence, and Xu Bin anxiously awaited a response.

The wait felt like an eternity. If he had cigarettes, he would have smoked half a pack by now.

"Chinese is vast and profound, and the universe despises this kind of hidden language system…"

After a long time, the system's voice resounded again, "Let's compromise!"

"I've already completed the task, how can you go back on your word?"

Xu Bin stubbornly said.

The system's rigid voice turned cold, "Or do you want the task to be data-oriented, and each time it becomes more rigorous?"

Previous tasks were relatively vague and simple. If it became more rigorous, such as counting the number of thrusts to make his wife climax or increasing the mother-in-law's goodwill by 1%, it would be even more demanding. This was far more terrifying than playing word games.

Xu Bin suddenly felt a chill and trembled. He realized that both he and the system were in an uncomfortable period of adjustment.

Xu Bin was afraid of losing this companion, and the system was also afraid of losing its host. It would probably take a long time before it could be activated again.

A long period of silence followed, and suddenly the door was opened. Shen Ru Yu, who had finished playing cards, came back.

She was in a good mood because she had won both games, even though they were small stakes. She was thrilled to have won a thousand yuan. But when she saw Xu Bin smoking in the living room, she was immediately stunned.

In the past, she wouldn't allow Xu Bin to do such things, but now she felt that she had been a bit too harsh.

Xu Bin, wearing only his underwear and smoking, looked unhappy. This was the first time she had seen him like this. In the past, Shen Ru Yu would have immediately scolded him, but now she was more concerned and curious.

"Son-in-law, what's wrong with you?"

Forgetting about the events of the evening, Shen Ru Yu walked over and asked, feeling a mix of curiosity and unease.

Xu Bin had come out of the room and was feeling frustrated from his interrupted conversation with the system. He was annoyed by the previous fear of his mother-in-law's strictness.

Wearing only underwear in the living room, smoking a cigarette, and looking at her, Xu Bin thought for a moment and took a deep breath, saying, "There's something going on. Mom, please keep your voice down and don't disturb Nan Nan. She has to work tomorrow."

"Oh, I see!"

Shen Ru Yu went back to her room to change and just as she put on her clothes, she started feeling annoyed.

What was this rascal pretending to do today? After doing such a thing in the evening, he had the audacity to give me an attitude when I came back. Who is he trying to show his face to?

The more she thought about it, the angrier Shen Ru Yu became. Pushing open the door, she wanted to come over and scold him, but she suddenly sensed that something was off.

It was too quiet in the living room, the TV was off, and when she opened the door, her son-in-law wasn't playing with his phone either. This wasn't normal.
