Chapter 52: "Twin Tail"
Lai Jiayi hurriedly scrolled through the lowest-ranked mission, Rank E.
'Ah, the same rank as my rank! This will be suitable for me.' Lai Jiayi rubbed her chin gently.
'Let's see what kind of mission they provided.'
"Hmm, picking up trash around Zhao Yang's apartment...watering plants around his house…" Lai Jiayi mumbled to herself as she raised one of her eyebrows.
"Help this man carry his bag...giving candy? Make him nod, tying his shoelace...handshake?" The girl continued, yet her voice became weaker the more she read the list.
This…
Lai Jiayi was speechless.
'To think that the mission looks like a servant job...no wonder it's ranked E!'
"Hmmm...one mission only needed one mission energy.." Lai Jiayi squinted. "But the points given are also only 10 points for each mission, ah!" the girl protested to herself.
'Surely no one will choose this kind of mission, but with my job as a cleaning service...these missions are what suit me the most!'
"Hhh, I don't have any other chance to interact with Zhao Yang after all." Lai Jiayi sighed.
"Damn it."
The girl reluctantly decided which mission to do, and after that, Lai Jiayi suddenly asked, "Yaya, I'll reserve the candy and nod mission, how is it?"
'Just in case someone did the mission first, I better reserve it now. '
Yaya, who was working on the plan they planned, stopped for a bit. He logged out from the system and answered Lai Jiayi, "Those two are mission ranked E, quack. Are you sure, quack?"
"Eh, you look like you don't agree?"
"Well, I want you to do a rather good mission with a lot of points, quack. Doing the Rank E mission is just a waste of time, quack…" Yaya frowned.
"It's okay, for now, I can only afford to do these missions. In the future, however, after I get more chances to interact…"
Lai Jiayi bit her lips before continuing, "I'll surely choose a C or D rank mission."
'I'm at the bottom of the ladder now, so it's not good to jump the stairs. Let's take it slow, starting from a baby step.'
Seeing Yaya was still not convinced, Lai Jiayi spoke again, "Everything needs a process. We shouldn't be impatient, okay?"
"...alright quack, then I'll reserve it for you, for tomorrow, right quack?" Yaya knew he couldn't change Lai Jiayi's mind, so he immediately agreed.
The duck then hurriedly reserved the mission for tomorrow morning.
"The due date of the mission will be 9 a.m, so if you didn't accomplish the mission, quack…" Yaya trailed off, "Your points will be deducted as the penalty, quack."
"Mn, I know." Lai Jiayi casually nodded.
Right after Yaya reserved the mission, Lai Jiayi's phone buzzed, and a message popped out again on her phone screen.
DING!
[Player Jia reserved candy and nod mission, rank E! Finish the task before tomorrow, 9 a.m]
"Ok, done." Lai Jiayi nodded in satisfaction, seeing that she reserved the mission successfully.
'Now, I only need to think of a good way to apologize. Mere words alone won't be enough to leave a good impression…'
"I have to do something that Zhao Yang won't expect. Maybe something like…" Lai Jiayi mumbled while thinking hard, and her eyes suddenly light up when an idea came to her mind.
'! This is it! This can be used!'
With a good mood, the girl prepared her apology plan well while waiting for Yaya to finish his work.
Three hours later, Yaya finished making the plan they had staged.
"It's ready, quack! I can control it anytime tomorrow, quack. Just give me the signal quack~ " Yaya nudged Lai Jiayi's elbow with his beak after he did his job.
The AI then lay on the bed, looking exhausted. He had just worked hard after all, and now his system overheated.
He had to rest.
"Mn, good work. Rest well, " Lai Jiayi knew about this. Thus, she immediately carried Yaya to her pillow and let him sleep there.
The girl then studied on her own even though she didn't go to college now.
'Tomorrow...the apology plan will start! I mustn't make any mistake this time. Can't let the barometer drop to minus!'
Wednesday, 7 a.m
"Zhao Yang will go to work at 8 a.m. We have to wait here, " Lai Jiayi told Yaya as she mopped the floor around the elevator.
"Okay, quack."
"I have done the other place as well, so let's wait here, around the elevator." Lai Jiayi pointed at the old elevator behind her.
'I have to 'coincidentally' want to use the elevator when Zhao Yang came, that's why I have to stand by here!'
Yaya nodded briefly before saying, "You will miss the morning class then, quack?" He knew Lai Jiayi's college schedule, so he couldn't help but ask.
"Yeah, but it's fine. As long as that guy forgives me, it's worth it sacrificing my morning class…"
Lai Jiayi subconsciously tightened her fist as she answered.
'Since I sacrificed my precious class, I have to make sure this plan went well!'
Just as the two were chatting while waiting for the target to appear, Yaya suddenly noticed a young girl with a blue-white sailor uniform approached the elevator where they were standing.
The girl had her hair tied in twin-tail, looking like a character from anime or something.
That lavender-colored hair was eye-catching, and the black cat AI hanging around her neck made her even more memorable.
!
"Jia, it's that twin-tail girl, quack! She's coming this way, quack!!" Yaya told Lai Jiayi as he saw the girl get even closer to their place.
In no time, the twin-tail girl would meet face-to-face with Lai Jiayi.
It means...both would discover the other party as a player!
Hearing this, Lai Jiayi didn't budge from her place. In fact, she even purposely lingered around as she said,
"It's okay. I also want to meet her and get her data lit up on my phone."
'My job is a lowly one, after all, there's no way this girl will consider me as a threat, right?'
Little did she know that even the smallest thing could be seen as a threat to other players.
Never let down your guard!
