Chapter 26


098: "... Who gives a patient as a gift?" The host's taste is indeed unique.


Ling Chunann pretended not to hear 098's question, parked the car in the hospital parking lot, adjusted his hat, and walked straight upstairs.


Zhang Ye lived in a regular ward. Ling Chunann didn't greet him first this time. When he entered, he saw Zhang Ye having a conversation with a woman, and the atmosphere seemed warm.


"Zhang Ye, how's your health?" Ling Chunann knocked on the door, walked in, placed the fruit basket next to the bed, and then asked curiously, "Is this your sister-in-law?"


"Oh, Ah Nan?" Zhang Ye's expression stiffened a bit. "Why are you here?" Then he waved to the woman, "Quick, go make some tea."


The woman had an ordinary appearance, but she had a friendly expression. She smiled at Ling Chunann and left.


"Why is this guy so shameless? He already has a wife..." 098 was surprised. In the plot, there was no mention of Ling Chunann's personal life, not even his manager. Yet, he had a wife and still developed such feelings for the host, even going as far as imprisoning him.


098 felt more sympathy for Ling Chunann now.


Ling Chunann nonchalantly sat down in front of the manager's bed, "Your sister-in-law seems nice."


Zhang Ye's gaze shifted a bit. He forced a smile, "Ah Nan, why are you here?" Then he gestured to the woman, "Quick, go make some tea."


The woman, despite having an ordinary appearance, smiled at Ling Chunann and left.


"Why is this person so despicable? Having a wife and still..." 098 was astonished. In the storyline, information about Ling Chunann was only described indirectly, and there was no mention of his manager. Yet, he already had a wife and still developed such feelings for the host, even going so far as to imprison him.


After sitting down as if nothing happened, Ling Chunann said casually, "Your sister-in-law seems nice."


Zhang Ye's gaze shifted, and he forced a smile, "Ah Nan, why are you here? I'll be discharged the day after tomorrow; there's no need for a special visit."


"It's okay; I've been without a manager recently, and it's a bit inconvenient. I thought since you're almost recovered, I'd drop by. Feeling a bit guilty for not coming earlier." Seeing that the other party didn't want to dwell on the topic of the woman, Ling Chunann considerately changed the subject, "You'll be back to work in a few days. I've sent the details of my recent work progress to your email. But to help you better understand the content of my next project, I've specifically found some similar movies for you to watch when you get back home."


Zhang Ye took the stack of DVDs with a smile. However, his expression changed to surprise when he saw the top cover, featuring a gaping mouth and the title "Horror Cannibal."


Even after leaving the hospital, 098 was still pondering the manager's shocked expression upon receiving the gift. "Host, are you really planning to take on that kind of movie for your next project?"


It quickly scanned the plot, but there was no similar script.


"I've already accepted it. Didn't you see?" Ling Chunann leisurely drove. "098, as my system, you're paying too little attention to me. I'm a bit disappointed."


Although Ling Chunann said this expressionlessly, 098 still felt a bit guilty. "I'm sorry, host. It's 098's fault."


Then, 098 specifically checked the script for Ling Chunann's recent project. It suddenly realized it wasn't entirely to blame. When Ling Chunann received the script, he only glanced at the title and the seemingly normal plot at the beginning before accepting it. Who could have predicted the content to be so brutal...


From the initial scenes, the script portrayed a skilled surgeon saving lives. However, as it progressed, it depicted a handsome doctor inviting a beautiful girl home. During a seemingly normal coffee pouring, the coffee accidentally spilled on the girl. Days later, her family posted missing person notices everywhere, and the doctor walked by expressionless.


098 instinctively skipped the seemingly non-bloody scenes, even those with artistically elegant murder scenes, adding another layer of fear for Ling Chunann. "Host, didn't you ever consider rejecting this film? Was it because of this movie that you eventually turned against yourself?"


"No." Ling Chunann shook his head. "Although the tone of the film is warm, the protagonist is an extremely dark and repressed lunatic. The worldview is too twisted, and I'm a normal person. I can't portray it well." After a pause, Ling Chunann added, "At least I was normal back then. Unfortunately..." He chuckled, "I really wanted to play it now, but it seems I don't have the time."


"Host..." 098 wanted to console the host, but it didn't know where to start. Then it heard Ling Chunann speak again.


"098, I'm hungry."


098 instantly became alert. Chu Yunge is leaving for three days!


Two days later, Chu Yunge appeared at the door. 098 seemed to see a savior and no longer complained about the frequent car rides.


"Baby, you've lost weight." Chu Yunge embraced Ling Chunann, placed him on the sofa, and looked at him with a hint of concern. "Haven't been eating well?"


"I'm hungry." Ling Chunann looked a bit aggrieved.


However, this time, Chu Yunge didn't immediately roll up his sleeves. He released Ling Chunann, checked the fridge, and found the heap of food he prepared before leaving untouched. His expression immediately changed, and he walked back, flipped Ling Chunann over, and slapped his buttocks with a loud sound.


Ling Chunann: "..."


098: "..." Despite the host looking pitiful, it felt like laughing.


"How is it that, even without memories, you react the same when angry?" On the third day, Ling Chunann finally got out of bed with support.


"Maybe because our souls are connected," 098 replied.


Ling Chunann nodded and, casually putting on some clothes, was about to go downstairs. 098 was surprised, "Host, aren't you going to wear more?"


With a slight smirk, Ling Chunann rolled up his sleeves, "I've covered what needs to be covered. No outsiders at home, what's there to be afraid of?"


Ling Chunann, 1.78 meters tall, and Chu Yunge, 1.93 meters tall. Chu Yunge's clothes on Ling Chunann naturally extended a lot. Ling Chunann casually lifted the sleeves and went downstairs.


Looking at Ling Chunann with only two buttons fastened, revealing a skin covered in hickeys and similarly marked thighs, 098 remained silent. Host, not wearing anything would be better than this.


Chu Yunge was busy in the kitchen. His movements were elegant and skilled. Although using an ordinary knife, in his hands, it seemed like a work of art. His face showed no expression, but his eyes were full of tenderness.


Ling Chunann leaned against the kitchen door, "He's really handsome."


098: "


According to human aesthetics, indeed."


"Baby?" Chu Yunge noticed Ling Chunann at this time. His gaze paused at his chest for a moment, then fell on his feet. "Why aren't you wearing shoes?"


"I came to watch you cook." Ling Chunann pointed at the pot. "It's about to burn."


Chu Yunge turned off the heat, washed his hands, and turned to lift Ling Chunann from the floor. Sensing that he seemed to be wearing nothing underneath, Chu Yunge's movements slightly stiffened. He cleared his throat and said, "Baby, wait for me outside."


Ling Chunann wrapped his arms around Chu Yunge's neck and rubbed against his already hardened part. He whispered in his ear, "Brother, I'm hungry..."


098: "..." 098 felt that the host was acting a bit unusual. Although he used to be lively, he never acted so... passionately.


This time, Ling Chunann stayed in bed for three full days.


On this day, when Ling Chunann woke up, Chu Yunge was getting dressed. His muscular figure was perfect, and as he put on his clothes, Ling Chunann looked a bit dazed.


"Baby, did I wake you up?" Chu Yunge leaned down and kissed Ling Chunann on the lips. "I need to go to the company. I'll probably be back by noon. You go back to sleep for a while."


Ling Chunann blinked, then obediently nodded. Chu Yunge chuckled lowly, kissed his forehead again, stood up, put on a suit jacket, and walked out.


Hearing the footsteps outside fading away, Ling Chunann's eyes no longer showed the confusion from earlier. He looked calm and got up slowly from the bed.


Half an hour later, Ling Chunann stood in front of the mirror, smiling at his reflection, "098, am I handsome?"


098: "Host, what are you planning to do?"


Ling Chunann pondered for a moment, buttoning the top button of his shirt to conceal the faint traces of hickeys underneath. He then answered slowly, "To complete a mission, guaranteeing its completion within three days."


Though it might seem somewhat against the rules for a system to say so, 098 still reminded, "Host, there are still four months until the mission deadline."


"I know." Ling Chunann smiled, taking out a watch from the drawer and putting it on. "Aren't your systems supposed to hope for the host to complete the mission as soon as possible?"


098 remained silent.


Whether intentional or not, Ling Chunann subconsciously chose to wear the same clothes he wore on the day he was imprisoned in his past life, with the same watch.


Arriving at the talent agency, he coincidentally encountered Yang Qingya, whom he hadn't seen in a long time. She had signed with the same company as Ling Chunann two months ago, and now she looked radiant, elegant, and beautiful. The admiration in her eyes towards Ling Chunann still lingered, but it had transformed into the kind of admiration one has for an idol. She warmly greeted him, "Ah Nan, Xiaochen has been missing you lately. Come to our house sometime; I'll cook a feast for you."


"Sure, I've never had a chance to taste your cooking. I'll definitely come another day." Ling Chunann replied with a smile. "I miss Xiaochen too."


After the friendly conversation, the two parted ways. Ling Chunann went straight to the top floor.


In fact, the talent agency had called him several times during this period, subtly suggesting the idea of assigning a new manager for him. However, he had managed to suppress that idea each time.


Today, he came to welcome back his returning manager. In his words, after all, they had been partners for ten years, and it was only appropriate to be more formal.


When Ling Chunann arrived, the office was occupied only by the company manager, Zhang Ye. Initially maintaining a stern expression, the fifty-year-old CEO turned friendly when he saw Ling Chunann. "Xiao Ling is here; take a seat."


Zhang Ye's face was filled with a smile, seemingly pleased that Ling Chunann came personally to witness his return to the company.


After a brief conversation with the CEO, Ling Chunann left the office with his manager. As usual, he handed over the car keys to him.
