After a week, Jiang Long finally got back the results from a well trusted doctor. Usually, it would take a matter of minutes due to the advancement of technology ,but it took longer to find a doctor who could be trusted not to spread the information later on.

Jiang Long skimmed through to the end of the report where it showed the results and paused. It turned out that Bai Wei was right, he was allergic to peaches.

Not only that, but Bai Wei also knew knowledge that no one else in the world knew. It seemed that Bai Wei was not lying, he had awakened as a profit.

[Ding! Target's favorability has raised 17 points. Target's favorability is now 5]

[Yay!! We are finally out of the negatives!!!]

The three celebrated inside Bai Wei's mind scape, confetti poured from the sky on the hardware and system.The hardware was infected by the systems happiness and joined the system's awkward dancing.

All of this celebration ended when someone knocked on the door.

Jiang Long waited for a moment before hearing a quiet "come in" and felt his heart sink as he entered the room.

Bai Wei sat looking out the window quietly. He had stayed in his room for several days now, only coming out to eat occasionally. His snow-white skin had now become a deathly pale color and there were deep bags under his eyes. The allergy incident had reminded Bai Wei that he was now not in the future anymore. Jiang Long no longer trusted himself like he did in the past.

Bai Wei looked at himself with surprise and joy for a while before he remembered and moved his eyes to the ground. Jiang Long felt his heart soften into a puddle at the sight of this. His own suspicion and repulsion are what caused Bai Wei to become like this.

All of Jiang Long's suppressed emotions over the past week came flooding back to him and his favorability soared.

[ Ding! Target's Favorability has risen 10 points and is now 15]

Jiang Long stood at the door awkwardly for a moment while thinking of what to say. Bai Wei sensed his apprehension and gestured to himself to sit in the chair opposite him.

Jiang Long sat down looking at his feet for a moment before saying "The report came back. What you said is true."

Bai Wei's eyes lit up with recognition and he looked at Jiang Long's eyes before replying "Yeah...".

Jiang Long suddenly stood up in front of Bai Wei, made a ninety-degree bow ,and said "I am truly grateful for your actions until now"

In response Jiang Long heard a small lighthearted giggle. He looked up to see a Bai Wei who was bathed in sunlight. His eyes squinted and rippled with laughter as his pearly teeth were shown from behind his bright red lips. Jiang Long thought that he had never seen a person as beautiful as Bai Wei was now.

[Ding! Target's favorability has risen 10 points and is now 25]

Bai Wei: he is so young and simple~

" Don't worry about it. We are ..." Bai Wei said smiling before trailing off at the end remembering that this is not the Jiang Long that he has been with for so many years.

"What were we?" Jiang Long asked.

Bai Wei looked slightly melancholy for a moment thinking of the past that now had never happened before answering " We were trusted allies, beloved rivals, and.... friends."

Bai Wei's eyes had a tangible sadness as he said the last part but Jiang Long was too wrapped up in the premise of having a trusted friend to notice.

Jiang Long jumped out of his chair to hug Bai Wei into his arms and said, "We can still be friends!!"

Bai Wei who was fully engulfed in the taller man's embrace: Is this a new posture for making friends?

...

Jiang Long was ecstatic to have a trusted friend. Over the next few days, he treated Bai Wei like a small child protecting their first toy. He dragged Bai Wei to do everything with him, the two might as well have been joined at the hip. Bai Wei was happy to oblige Jiang Long's possessiveness and seemed to be simply happy to be in the other's presence.

However, this was only how Bai Wei seemed on the outside. On the inside he was getting bored of this two-person world. He looked at the favorability that hadn't rose since it shot up to thirty-five and sighed. According to the hardware, Bai Wei was currently Jiang Long's highest favorability (even Jia Jinjiang only had a favorability of 20), but a favorability of 35 was not going to complete the mission.

Bai Wei silently started making plans to move onto the next step. The system who could see the host's plans from within his mind scape silently lit a candle for the male lead.

As such, one beautiful morning when both Bai Wei and Jiang Long were eating breakfast together and watching the news as it quietly played in the background. This was one small habit along with many others that the two had developed during their cohabitation.

The two continued to silently watch the news for a while until a report about a small-time theft in a bank in the middle of a downtown area near the residence was shown. Seeing the person on the screen who was evading police on a motorcycle at high speed, Bai Wei's hand that was clinching his fork loosened and the utensil fell to the ground with a loud clang.

Jiang Long looked at the horror-stricken Bai Wei as he gathered his thoughts before looking back at himself.

"Th-the Zerg are about to invade. We need to prepare for war"

The system in Bai Wei's mind that knows that this war was not supposed to happen for another three years but was sped up due to Bai Wei's inciting sighed and lit another candle for the man. The hardware however laughed at Jiang Long's face as it contorted after hearing this news. It silently took a photo to show to its friends back in the system space.
