Join the ServerAfter some deliberation, they finally settled on which masks to wear.
Bai Mengze chose the white cat mask, while Ji Wenyan opted for the black cat mask.
As for whether wearing masks on the street would attract more attention… Ji Wenyan figured that compared to the muscular men cosplaying as sexy girls or old men in bikinis, he and Bai Mengze were just wearing masks—no big deal.
Now, when they walked back and forth on the street, they no longer had to worry about prying eyes or talent scouts trying to chat them up. It was incredibly comfortable!
After that, they visited quite a few places, watching street performances and looking at the small trinkets on display. It was quite entertaining.
The streets were bustling with people, and the lively atmosphere lifted their spirits.
“Ji Wenyan, you look really handsome in that black cat mask!”
“You look adorable too! But we’ve been walking for a while—let’s find a place to rest!”
As they spoke, Ji Wenyan spotted a bench up ahead and quickly led Bai Mengze over.
Thankfully, they had already seen most of the area, so now they could finally take a break!
After sitting down, Ji Wenyan felt absolutely blissful… When they were walking, he hadn’t realized it, but as they kept going, he started to get tired.
What could he do? His stamina was pathetic…
Yet seeing Bai Mengze so happy, Ji Wenyan couldn’t bring himself to call it quits. He could only grit his teeth and push on.
Because of her parents’ car accident, Bai Mengze probably hadn’t gone shopping like this in a long time.
So, let her unwind!
“Flitting away, yet unable to stay together, this is the love you want, I can’t…”
Just as Ji Wenyan sat down, a song suddenly came from next to him.
Curious, he looked over and saw a young man earnestly strumming a guitar and singing, surrounded by a crowd of people taking photos and videos with their phones.
To be fair, he sang quite well.
“He sings really well… Ji Wenyan, can you sing?”
“Uh…”
Bai Mengze, who was sitting beside him, also withdrew her gaze and turned to Ji Wenyan, throwing him a question he didn’t know how to answer.
Ji Wenyan had a deep understanding of singing.
Not just him, but his parents had vivid memories as well, and they had given him very honest evaluations.
For example, if he sang again, the wolves would come.
Or, his singing sounded like an old monk chanting scriptures—pretty impressive.
Things like that seriously damaged Ji Wenyan’s desire to sing. When he tried to hide and sing alone, passersby would cover their ears in pain…
Recalling those bitter experiences, and seeing Bai Mengze’s expectant look, Ji Wenyan hesitated but finally decided to tell the truth.
He was tone-deaf…
[Random Task: Sing to Bai Mengze and earn her sincere praise. Reward: 1000 Star Source Points, 10 Vitality Points. Failure: Decrease Bai Mengze’s intimacy by 10 points.]
Just as Ji Wenyan was about to speak, he received a task notification from the system.
What the heck?! What kind of nonsense is this?!
Why is there a penalty for failure?!
Decrease intimacy by 10 points? That would clear it out completely!!!
In an instant, three questions popped up in his mind.
Given the current situation, Ji Wenyan strongly suspected… that the system wanted to change hosts, which was why it gave him such a difficult task.
If he could sing well, would he have hesitated for so long?!!!
Now it was telling him to sing directly—not only would it scare Bai Mengze, but he was worried someone would film him and post it online, making him the latest street comedy sensation.
[System, are you trying to kill me? You must be, otherwise why would you give me such an impossible task?!]
[System: Host, don’t sell yourself short. Believe in yourself!]
[That’s exactly why I don’t believe in myself!!!]
[System: After testing, the host’s singing ability is 0.7 points. The Star Source Mall now has a ‘Super Discount Buy One Get One Free’ event. The host can spend 2000 Star Source Points to exchange for the Master-Level Singing Skill, plus a free parallel world song sheet!]
[…]
[System: Friendly reminder: the host can continue to owe Star Source Points, as long as they are repaid before the 20th of next month!]
While complaining to the system, hearing about the mall’s discount event again made Ji Wenyan smell a rat.
Although he had completed quite a few tasks recently, his current Star Source Points were zero, and he already owed the system 1000 points.
If he exchanged for this singing skill, even with the 1000 points from the task reward, his debt would increase to 2000 Star Source Points!!!
Why was he getting deeper in debt?
[System: This event is very cost-effective. Don’t miss it! The host must seize the opportunity!]
[Are you sure I won’t infringe on copyright by singing this song?]
[System: No. These are songs from parallel worlds transported by the system. The host can just say it’s self-composed—no problem at all… In exchange, the singer of this song will receive system support, gaining a boost of good luck for a period of time.]
[Alright, exchange now!]
[System: Given that the host has purchased skills frequently recently, this skill will be infused painlessly for free. Welcome to come again next time~]
[…]
Ji Wenyan didn’t want to say anything more.
This black-hearted merchant of a system was too shady!
But he had no choice but to exchange… He didn’t want to risk the intimacy being cleared.
[System: Parallel world song exchange successful! Now transporting… Song title: ‘Xiao Chou’ (Drown the Sorrows). Singer: Mao Buyi. Composer: Mao Buyi. Lyricist: Mao Buyi. Arranger: Zhao Zhao.]
Then, as he felt the skill infusion succeed, a melody immediately appeared in his mind without him even asking.
A song he had never heard before, very beautiful.
This singer named Mao Buyi was incredibly talented!
He handled all the lyrics and composition himself!
After playing through once, Ji Wenyan had the song deeply memorized. At the same time, information like the song title and composer appeared, letting him know this was the parallel world song the system had mentioned.
A parallel universe refers to other universes that split off from a certain universe, existing parallel to the original—both similar and different… The same goes for parallel worlds.
Ji Wenyan wasn’t surprised that parallel worlds existed. After all, even the system was here… Not to mention parallel worlds; even if a god suddenly popped up one day, he wouldn’t be shocked.
What mattered now was singing to Bai Mengze!
“Ji Wenyan, you don’t have to force yourself. I was just asking casually.”
Seeing that Ji Wenyan had been silent for a long time, his face deep in thought, Bai Mengze felt she had said the wrong thing.
Maybe Ji Wenyan wasn’t good at singing…
Though he was amazing, he couldn’t do everything.
But even if he couldn’t sing well, that was fine! She could sing instead!
“No, I was just thinking about what song to sing.”
“Are you really going to sing?”
“Yeah, no one can stop me today. Even if it’s a cappella, I’ll sing very well!”
Since he had already exchanged for the skill, Ji Wenyan felt it would be a huge loss if he didn’t sing today.
So, without waiting for Bai Mengze to say anything more, he activated the Master-Level Singing Skill and began humming softly.
The moment he opened his mouth, his voice was clear, melodious, and captivating, immediately making Bai Mengze’s eyes go wide.
