Lai Jiayi gritted her teeth again and shouted to Yaya in her mind, [What are you doing, ah?! Why didn\'t you tell me Tianjin is back– wait. You should have prevented her from going up!!]

Lai Jiayi\'s sudden rant just threw Yaya out of his mind. The duck looked at Zhao Yun as they made jelly.

[What do you mean, quack? Tianjin is back, quack?? I didn\'t see her, quack! I was distracting Zhao Yun, remember??] Yaya panicked. The duck urged Lai Jiayi.

[Tell me what\'s going on, quack? Did something happen– ]

[Yeah. Tianjin came back earlier than I expected, and she came back before Zhao Yang could wipe my tears!! It...it was so close!! He was about to, yet– ]

Lai Jiayi slowly inhaled and tried to calm her heart because once she got too worked out, her fever would worsen!

[In summary, I failed the mission.] Lai Jiayi squeezed her eyes tightly. [And it\'s all because of Tianjin!]

Yaya gasped. The duck was about to curse Tianjin when the person suddenly popped out behind him.

"What are you two doing?" Tianjin crossed her wings and stared at the two people occupying the simple kitchen. The swan glared at Yaya as she observed the duck.

\'So young master is gone because of this duck? What did he do to my young master??\'

Yaya almost choked on his saliva.

\'Since when she is here?! Wtf– I didn\'t even feel her presence!\'

Yaya broke in a cold sweat. His body froze from head to toe, but he still tried to move. Yaya hurriedly turned around and smiled sheepishly.

"I\'m just asking young master Zhao to help me make jelly, quack."

\'Though we don\'t have any real progress so far.\'

"Jelly?" Tianjin squinted her eyes when Zhao Yun turned around. The boy was wearing a pink apron with a futuristic pattern on it. Zhao Yun flashed an innocent smile at Tianjin.

"Tianjin! Look, look, we are making jelly, but somehow we always fail." Zhao Yun dragged Tianjin and showed her the jelly they tried to make.

Since both Zhao Yun and Yaya never cooked, they didn\'t know how to make a jelly. Even after they found out the tutorial on the internet, it was useless.

Nobody created a jelly by hand anymore. They just used a machine for that. In fact, cooks nowadays were also rare.

An average family used a machine to create foods for them. Only the riches got chefs and a cook to make food for them.

"Jelly…" Tianjin stared at the black jiggly thing in front of her and frowned. "Why don\'t you put the receipt in the cooking machine? This house got one, right?"

Tianjin pointed at a small metal box not far from their place. One only needed to supply the ingredients and input the receipt. The machine would be the one doing the cooking.

"Uh...that is quite an old model. I don\'t know how to use that." Zhao Yun shrugged.

\'It\'s not like I\'m knowledgeable enough about old things.\'

"Ugh…" Tianjin groaned and sighed. "Fine, I\'ll help you guys." The swan immediately searched about the cooking machine model and how to operate it.

Once she found the information, the swan patiently taught Zhao Yun and Yaya how to use the machine. This made her stay in the kitchen for a long time.

Tianjin and the others were immersed in making jelly for a few minutes until Lai Jiayi called Yaya again in her mind.

[Where are you? Do you hear me? I said we failed the mission!!] Lai Jiayi felt her head was going to split apart.

Her fever didn\'t get better with all these problems she got.

[Ah, ah, yes, quack. We failed the mission.] Yaya nodded. He peeked at Tianjin and Zhao Yun before slowly distancing himself from the two of them.

[Then what to do now, quack? What\'s the punishment– ]

TING! [Player Lai failed the mission \'Get Zhao Yang to wipe your tears.\' Please get ready for your punishment.]

[Your punishment: drug Zhao Yang with aphrodisiac before he goes home. Warning ⚠️. Not doing the penalty will result in instant elimination.]

Right after the notification sounded, Lai Jiayi and Yaya had a blank look on their face. Despite the two of them not meeting face-to-face, they still had the same reaction.

What? Drugging Zhao Yang?

Lai Jiayi almost fainted. The girl\'s face was still facing Zhao Yang, and because of that, she couldn\'t show any reaction on her face aside from the blank look. Welp, she didn\'t even open her eyes to have that blank look.

\'Aphrodisiac? That thing used to arouse someone and is the number one most popular item to use in romance novels?\'

[....there must be an error, quack. The game system can\'t be this indecent, quack.] Yaya tried to deny the punishment.

How...the heck we can drug that guy? Not to mention drugging him with aphrodisiac before he goes home?

Isn\'t that asking to be killed? Once Zhao Yang knew about it, game over.

No!!

[Yaya...can we ask the system to change the punishment…] Lai Jiayi was on the edge of crying for the third time. Her eyelids were hot, and tears would stream out anytime.

\'There\'s no fcking way I can do this penalty! But, if I don\'t do it, I\'ll get instant elimination. If I do it, the barometer might touch minus, and I\'ll be eliminated too!!\'

Walking forward, hitting the wall. Going back...fell to the hole.

That\'s right. It was a dead end.

Lai Jiayi could feel her soul just leave her body. The girl\'s forehead became even hotter than before, and when Lai Jiayi felt the world was ending…

Something cold touched her forehead.
