Leng Mei's eyes narrowed with suspicion as she confronted Zhang Wei. "Do you even know what nonsensical gibberish you're spouting?" she demanded, her voice laced with annoyance.
Zhang Wei let out a soft chuckle before turning to the System, his mind racing with possibilities.
'Hey, is there any way to remotely control Leng Yan?' he asked, his voice low and conspiratorial.
[... Like some kind of robot?]
Zhang Wei's eyes lit up with excitement as he nodded eagerly. 'Yes,' he whispered to himself, a grin spreading across his face.
[That would be 20 points for one-time use, host], the System interjected, its voice ringing through Zhang Wei's mind.
Zhang Wei's face twisted in frustration at the steep price, but he knew he had no other choice.
He didn't want to wake up Leng Yan, but he needed to control her body remotely.
But why doesn't he want to wake her up?
Zhang Wei couldn't bear to let Leng Yan know that she was being used as a pawn against Leng Mei just yet.
