Although what he said was true, not an excuse, there really was a feeling of making Sakuragi Hitomi feel wronged because of it.

Now that things had come to this, he had no other choice but to quickly call back Meow and then think of a way to solve Bai Yi’s matter.

"Beep beep..."

At this moment, An Le’s phone rang.

She glanced down, and her expression immediately changed.

"...What’s wrong?"

Noticing her unusual demeanor, Yan Huan immediately asked.

"It’s a call from my dad..."

"Uncle?"

Seeing Yan Huan’s confusion, Sakuragi Hitomi remembered that Yan Huan still didn’t know about An Le’s situation being discovered by her father after being taken by Ye Shiyu.

Therefore, she had to explain it to Yan Huan on An Le’s behalf.

"It’s okay, Dad doesn’t know what I’ve been up to all this time... but I might need to go home for a bit..."

"It’s alright... and Aunt Tong, over there."

"Ah, I need to go see them too..."

Tong Yingying rubbed her temples and also checked her phone.

Seeing they all had matters to attend to, Sakuragi Hitomi smiled slightly, 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

"Then you all go ahead, I’ll stay here with the President..."

"I don’t really have anything going on, feels like I could be discharged soon..."

"Still, you need to rest well..."

Even though that was said, Sakuragi Hitomi still got up, placed the medical record on Yan Huan’s bedside cabinet, and softly said,

"I’ll go send them off, and take care of the payments and stuff. I’ll be back in a bit, President..."

"Alright."

Before him, Sakuragi Hitomi and An Le, along with Tong Yingying, left, the door to the ward closed, leaving Yan Huan alone.

As the atmosphere suddenly quieted down, Yan Huan furrowed his brows and began to think.

Hiss...

Wait a minute, since I didn’t die before...

What about my revival count?!

As he kept thinking, Yan Huan suddenly found a blind spot.

With a thought, a golden stream of light appeared before him, forming a phantom interface.

[Note: Before the fragments are repaid, the weekly modifier lottery ability will be locked]

[But you can still open the Demon Shop and use other abilities previously obtained]

"...What, this is so sneaky?!"

Seeing this, Yan Huan was dumbstruck.

It seemed that even though Bai Yi changed the fact of his own past death, he couldn’t change the things already consumed in his modifier?!

But the problem is, where am I going to get so many fragments?

"..."

Remember, before Meow said that fragments would only drop when the host does not actively have the awareness of dropping fragments.

And now, aside from Bai Yi’s modifier, everything has quieted down, there’s no opportunity to gather fragments...

"Oh wait... back when Ye Shiyu abandoned the modifier to stop the Evil God descending, weren’t there a lot of fragments dropped? Wonder if they’re still in the company building..."

Recalling the scene at that time, Yan Huan felt hopeful and planned to check when he returned to the company later.

"Demon Shop..."

With this thought, Yan Huan didn’t remain idle, and with a thought, a misty fog appeared in front of him.

The fog pulled his consciousness downward into a familiar dark sea.

"Splash..."

[Ding!]

[Crab Coin +1]

Just as he entered here, Yan Huan felt a glow fly from his body, transforming into vital stock next to him.

Indeed, the Crab Coins brought back from there can be accumulated.

Oh, if only I’d brought more back then...

"Open Crab Coin Store."

Although thinking that, at the time Yan Huan really couldn’t carry more.

That single Crab Medicine was as big as a real crab, holding four of them, it was already the limit to bring back one additional Crab Coin.

[Crab Coin Store]

[Congratulations on completing all tasks for the previous month]

[The tasks have now been updated]

[More items have appeared in the shop, please take a closer look]

Hmm...

Previously completed two tasks, earning 10 Crab Medicines, plus one brought back, making a total of 11.

At most, you can earn 10 in a month, and including the enhanced Crab Medicine Store, the World Modulator only needs 30!

Thinking so, Yan Huan thoughtfully stroked his chin.

Let’s first take a look at this month’s tasks...

[Crab Coin Tasks, will refresh once a month, and a maximum of 10 Crab Coins can be earned each month]

[Task One]

[You have known Aria for so long, yet nothing has happened, it’s time for the relationship to go further!]

[Please, under the premise of Aria’s consent, engage in a relationship with her]

[Reward: 5 Crab Coins]

[Task Two]

[Ye Shiyu and other girls are still incompatible like fire and water, how can this go on?]

[Please attempt to mend Ye Shiyu’s relationship with other girls, enabling them to accept Ye Shiyu]

[Evaluation standard, others’ favorability towards Ye Shiyu should reach above 50%]

[Below are their current favorability towards Ye Shiyu]

[Sakuragi Hitomi: 23%]

[An Le: -100%]

[Aria: 0%]

[Tong Yingying: 2%]

[Bai Yi: 62% (Achieved)]

Looking at the first task, Yan Huan blinked.

He rubbed his temples in slight frustration, at a loss for words.

He really likes Aria, but precisely because of that, he couldn’t bear to destroy her innocence with desire.

If Aria desired it, he would of course be very willing.

But evidently, Aria was still naive, having much to learn and know, so Yan Huan always felt it wasn’t the right time.

Now, with the Crab Coin Store suddenly putting up this task, Yan Huan found himself in a dilemma.

Because he knew that if he really asked, Aria likely...

wouldn’t refuse.

"..."

In such a difficult contemplation, Yan Huan couldn’t help but turn his attention to the second task.

For some reason, he felt that this task seemed more acceptable...

Even though it was evidently harder than the first.

"Bai Yi and Ye Shiyu really have a good relationship..."

Looking at the last line of Bai Yi’s favorability, Yan Huan couldn’t help but smile wryly.

However, gazing at Bai Yi’s name displayed, the smile on Yan Huan’s face inevitably faded bit by bit.

He sat on the dark reef, casually picking up a pink crab crawling on the ground, and began to doodle on the ground,

"Bai Yi..."

He wrote down Bai Yi’s name.

But in his mind, he couldn’t recall more details about Bai Yi.
