Chapter 2 - 1.2

[Nowadays, everyone is striving to become the protagonist. Cannon fodders should stay as cannon fodders either follow the plot or dies!] System 069 complained aggrievedly, [But those pests were dissatisfied with their roles and choose to counterattack, and what do you think happened? Of course, they will be eliminated by the world's consciousness. They are simply no match for the protagonist's aura.]

Lian Zhinan nodded lightly.

System 069 was taken back for a while, in fact, this is only his first host, and he has no experience about the past host. But according to his seniors, he had to frighten the host he had bind to became obedient, but this doesn't look right? Sure enough, his host was the best.

[This is your first mission. It's not too difficult, as long as you listened to me, I can guarantee you would definitely complete the mission!]

"Okay."

System 069 wasn't really used of a silent companion. Back in the System Academy, his peers would talk so much even during class.

In result… This short period of time, it is really not used to it!

[But we need to take care of your appearance first. Drink the medicine that I brought you.]

Thinking about his host's appearance, 069 could only sigh in silent. He was just a fresh graduate when his mother forced him to work immediately, his grades and abilities were only built for the cannon fodder department but there are so many applicants, however, who wouldn't think that the company was facing a disaster, and of course, he would be accepted instantly. He was excited and flew in the world consciousness to find a suitable host to bind to, he was fortunate to found one. It's just that…

In his field of vision, he could see the young man sitting comfortably. His smooth and shiny hair dropped down, faintly covering his eyebrow, underneath those were a pair of shiny eyes, framed by his long eyelashes. His nose was cute and small, and his lips as if it were kissed by the gods. His host's appearance was definitely the best among he had seen, his state of shock was greater when his host's soul completely materialize for the first time.

069 was even conflicted for a while, shouldn't he transfer him to the protagonist department? But he was already bind to him, and the unbinding cost a fortune for a poor system like him. Luckily, there are free camouflage potions for a beginner like him. Although, it was a pity to cover that kind of face…

"I already drank it."

[Good, ancestor how about—What!]

System 069 was dumbfounded. He looked at his host again and was bewildered for a while.

"I already drank it. When you gave it to me, I drank it immediately." The soft voice wouldn't lie.

069 went silent. He stared at him and inspect the differences. The camouflage potions didn't take effect? Or is there a problem with the potion? How come his host look the same?

[Ancestor, don't lie to me. Did you really drink it?]

"Yes. In fact, I drink four."

069, "…." Is his host's beauty so great that even a highly potions couldn't cover it?

Lian Zhinan patted the plump system who was currently crying a river, trying to comfort it. Nonetheless, system 069 was a dedicated system and instantly recovered from its grief, besides, there are only few scenes for his host to act, they could leave afterwards.

System 069 was energetic again and flew towards the front, [You are now going to take your first mission, are you ready?]

Lian Zhinan nodded calmly.

System 069 transferred the plot to him.

This is a typical modern drama. The protagonist Yan Shen was kidnapped when he was a baby. The Yan family couldn't take the blow too light and immediately hired a couple of experts to find their lost son. The kidnapper couldn't bear to kill an innocent child and brought him to a remote village.

He was found by an ordinary couple who were both interfile and was adopted by then. He lives a normal life with a loving family, while his biological parents were devastated for a couple of years. At young, Yan Shen already showcased his talent in acting, but since his current parents couldn't afford to send him to an Entertainment School, Yan Shen buried his dream into his heart.

Luckily, a talent scout recognized his talent and was immediately scouted. At first, Yan Shen experience many hardship and difficulties but when he found out about his identity, everything changed.

And Lian Zhinan's current body wasn't even mentioned in the plot but he had the same name as his which was very strange. He was the young brother who stayed abroad of Lian Chen, the current president of Lian Industry. At this point, Yan Shen was already recognized by his family and Lian Chen went to prison.

Lian Chen was blinded by his love for his girlfriend and followed her every whim. So, when his girlfriend was offended by Yan Shen, she instantly commanded Lian Chen to dragged him out in the circle. Lian Chen used all means to surpassed Yan Shen. His mistakes, since Yan Shen was discovered by the adopted son of Yan Family and was also his friend.

Anger by the mere truth, Yan Li operated several means to dragged Lian Chen down, including his girlfriend. Friendship was gone, and only pure anger was visible.

Lian Chen's identity changed overnight, his company went downhill. His father couldn't take it too lightly and died of a heart attack.

Lian Zhinan's character had no contact with the main characters, he just needs to act as a depressed younger brother who was unable to afford the sudden lost of his father and brother. It was only a small role, and the system believed that it was easy.

Howbeit, he still felt something's strange. With his host's current appearance, it shouldn't affect the plot, right?

Yes. Yes. That's right. 069 nodded in satisfaction. They don't really need to meet the characters and just wait until the completion time was full.

"Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to the B city."

Both Lian Zhinan and the system were slightly stunned by the announcement. They even forgot that they are currently in the plane and on their way to the city.

The system proudly reminded his dedicated host, [Now, remember. You need to act as your character, OOC is very prohibited.]

"How do I act?" Lian Zhinan asked innocently.

069 thought for a while. There is no specific description of the character of Lian Zhinan, depressed, sad and autistic? The system was confused for a second.

[Ancestor, you are now a depressed and a weak child. You cannot bear the death of your father, just act like a depressed teenager!]

Depressed? Lian Zhinan pursed his lips. For him, he doesn't really understand emotions, he just followed his own instinct. He had no memories since he met the system, so, he had no specifically experience about this.

The young man was already pale, wearing a black sweater made his skin whiter. The contrast between the color was very eye-catching, as if the most cold jade in the morning hall. His character's body was weak and fragile, a slight movement would make his body ache, he was squeamish and after Lian Zhinan wore it, it became more coquettish.

System 069 swallowed hard. Damn. The visual impact was very great, even him, an asexual object actually produces evil thoughts towards his host.

There are only few passengers boarding, hence, Lian Zhinan was the only one sitting in the back. After the plane properly landed off, few passengers took their luggage and Lian Zhinan abruptly stood up.

His face then came to their sight. The young man was beautiful, the age between seventeen and nineteen was fresh in their eyes. His eyelashes trembled as if experiencing some pain and the end of his eyes were reddish. Weak, fragile and pitiful. How come they didn't notice this beautiful child?

"Young man, are you okay?" An old lady couldn't hide her concern.

Lian Zhinan looked at her and nodded lightly. But it seems like several onlookers were still worried about him and asked if he boarded alone. With the help of the system, of course, Lian Zhinan successfully avoided their concerns.

[….] Although, his host's appearance now looks miserable, it was far from what he expected. 069 cleared his throat and went back to his professionalism, [Your older brother's friend should fetch you right now, remember to act well.]

"Okay."

Assistant Gu was already irritated. He stared at the various passengers and couldn't see the one he was looking for. Why did Director Chu asked him to fetch someone? And that someone was actually the young brother of his boss's convicted friend?

He was waiting here for a long time, and he was now very annoyed. After he was done with this work, he would enjoy himself with delicacies. He glanced at the passenger again and noticed a figure not far from him. It wasn't him who noticed it, all the people were eyeing that figure.

Assistant Gu swallowed his nonexistent saliva and was dumbfounded for a while. He looked at the teenager again and discovered the familiar appearance. He glanced at his phone and back to the teenager. But before he could gather his thoughts, the teenager was already at his front.

"Are you brother Chu?" The weak yet sweet voice was tantalizing in his ears.

He couldn't give a response for a second and just stared at the teenager. The latter seems to realized his abnormality and tilted his head, asked again.

"Are you brother Chu? My older brother's friend?"

Assistant Gu finally gathered all his thoughts and smiled nicely. Damn. He couldn't believe the difference between the photo and the actual person was so great that he lost his cool. He loosened his tie uncomfortably and went back to his work mode.

"Hi, are you Lian Zhinan?"

The youth nodded, few strands of hair fell down on his forehead, making his face smaller. Assistant Gu felt hotter in an instant.

"I'm Director Chu's assistant, you can call me Assistant Gu…" Or brother Gu, he wanted to add that, but it would only looked inappropriate since they just met. "Director Chu was very busy and couldn't fetch the young master."

Lian Zhinan was confused. In the plot, Chu Yan, one of the male supporting actor was the one who fetch him and leave him in the mansion for himself. With the symptoms of depression, Lian Zhinan committed suicide in several months he stayed there, so, how can he complete the plot without Chu Yan?

Assistant Gu's voice sounded again, "Young master Lian should be tired, right? Director Chu prepared a place for you to stay."

Hearing this, Lian Zhinan nodded calmly. It's still within the plot line; therefore, he doesn't need to worry for the time being.

Assistant Gu picked up his small luggage and lead the way. Lian Zhinan followed behind.

The car that Assistant Gu was driving was the company's car, he felt embarrassed for a moment. Damn. If he had known, he shouldn't pick this ugly car and went with his luxurious car. But for Lian Zhinan all things were just the same, whether cars, things, or person. He sat in the back seat and didn't talk.
