I really don't want to take shortcuts anymore

The random mission mode does sound unreliable, but it is still quite exciting if you can get the recipe you want.

After all, compared to the roulette lottery with an extremely low probability of winning, the new features of the 1.4 version of the system sound more likely to be realized sooner.

The only thing you need to worry about is whether the system will propose some strange tasks that are beyond human power, which will make you exhausted and still end up with nothing.

"System, can you explain in detail what kind of tasks are released in this random task mode?"

"As an outstanding system in a high-dimensional plane, all tasks issued by this system will perfectly match the host's identity and ability. There will be no tasks that will destroy the host's personality, exceed the host's overall strength, or violate justice."

This sounds pretty good. Luo Qianhuai was relieved and asked, "If I agree to open the random task system, what tasks do I need to complete to obtain the papermaking technique?"

"Ding! Received the host's request to activate the random task system. The request was approved. The random task system has been activated and is connecting to the host's wishes..."

Luo Qianhuai: "... Wait a minute, system, I just asked first, I didn't say to open it now!"

The system didn't know whether it really didn't understand or was just pretending to be confused, and ignored her opinion:

"Ding, docking completed. We are testing the technological gap between the current technological development status and papermaking technology... Ding, measurement completed, the gap value is less than 10%, and the mission mode is determined to be simple."

"Drawing the random tasks required for papermaking...Drawing completed. This task is a continuous task, with a total of 3 tasks. It will be issued at a time that this system deems appropriate. Please check it carefully and complete it within the specified time limit!"

"Friendly reminder: The host must complete all tasks and have a comprehensive score of 80 or above to obtain the papermaking formula. Failure or voluntary abandonment of any task will be regarded as a complete abandonment of the formula. The corresponding formula will be deleted from the reward catalog of this system and cannot be obtained by opening the random task system again!"

In other words, there is only one chance. If you fail, you will never be able to obtain the papermaking technique again, no matter whether it is through the lottery or the random task system.

Therefore, these three random tasks must be completed no matter what.

I don’t know what the right time will be. I hope I won’t do something weird in front of everyone.

While I was daydreaming, Xing Xuan came back with a large bucket of hot water.

"Madam, the water is ready, please take a bath." She tested the water temperature, sprinkled flower petals of various colors in the wooden tub, and led Luo Qianhuai into the bath.

After a comfortable bath, Xing Xuan was twisting her hair when the lights and sounds in the outer courtyard gradually dimmed. Not long after, Master Mo opened the door.

Xing Xuan looked at Luo Qianhuai and saw her nod slightly, so she smiled and saluted the two of them, ran out briskly, and considerately closed the door from the outside.

"Yinyin." Mr. Mo smelled of alcohol, his eyes tilted upwards, his cheeks were tinged with peach, and he walked towards Luo Qianhuai step by step: "I'm back."

"Yeah." Although Luo Qianhuai had lived two lives, this was her first time getting married. Her heartbeat began to quicken, and she didn't know what to say or do for a moment.

Master Mo's gaze fell directly on her face, and the only remaining clarity gradually faded away, and little by little turned into pure darkness, with no end in sight.

He stood in front of Luo Qianhuai, slowly leaned towards her, and opened his arms to embrace her.

"Yin Yin." He sighed with satisfaction: "I have finally waited for this day. I always felt like I was dreaming."

"I think so too." Luo Qianhuai agreed quietly. The man in front of her was her husband, the one she would spend her life with.

She took a deep breath and snuggled quietly in his arms, listening to each other's heartbeats getting faster and faster, and her heart gradually calmed down.

In a daze, she felt the other person's hand gently stroking her long hair, and then she heard a very subtle "click" sound.

Luo Qianhuai looked up in surprise, and saw Master Mo holding two strands of hair, tying them together with a gold and red silk ribbon, and then putting them into a brocade bag.

"We will share the same pillow and grow old together, holding hands." He stuffed the brocade bag under the pillow, then took Luo Qianhuai's hand.

"Yin Yin, it's late at night, and we should go to bed." Master Mo leaned close to her ear and spoke softly.

"You reek of alcohol... go wash yourself first." Luo Qianhuai couldn't control his fluttering heart and made up an excuse: "By the way, that water is what I just used. Call Xing Xuan in to change it."

Mr. Mo lowered his head, sniffed his sleeves, and stood up obediently: "No need, how could I dislike Yin Yin... Madam, please wait a moment, your husband will be back soon."

Young Master Mo went to the bathroom at the back, and Luo Qianhuai was not idle either. She put down the tent for all the children and grandchildren, put away all the longans, dates, peanuts, and lotus seeds on the big red wedding quilt, and then went in by herself, pretending to take a nap.

When in Rome, do as the Romans do. Although this body was still young in the previous life, it is old enough to get married in this era, not to mention her mental age, which is not really that of a fifteen-year-old girl. She knows what is about to happen.

The footsteps came all the way from the bathroom at the back and stopped in front of the couch.

Suddenly, the couch became heavy, and the quilt was lifted, revealing a person in a red silk robe. She closed her eyes tightly and seemed to have fallen asleep.

Mr. Mo then lay down on his side and put his arms around her waist from behind.

"Yin Yin." He called her softly, "From today on, I will... have a home again."

Seeing his true feelings expressed so sincerely, Luo Qianhuai felt embarrassed to pretend to be asleep anymore.

"Yeah." She said softly, "We have an agreement. As long as you can do it, I will never let you down."

".......Yin Yin is indeed different. She can say such depressing words at this time." Master Mo breathed behind her ear, bringing a tingling sensation.

His hands gradually became less and less honest, and his breathing became heavier.

"Don't be afraid." He comforted her, allowing her stiff body to gradually relax.

Luo Qianhuai originally thought that what would happen next would be a natural and smooth process, but unexpectedly something went wrong.

The first ray of blue light appeared in the sky, and the gloomy night was driven away silently.

Luo Qianhuai opened her eyes drowsily and saw the bright red curtain above her head. The memories of last night flooded back into her mind like a tide.

There was no one beside him, Luo Qianhuai sat up, feeling extremely sore all over.

But compared with the discomfort in her body, the regret and shame in her heart made it even more difficult for her to accept.

"System, you've really screwed me!" Luo Qianhuai covered his face with his hands, fell back on the pillow weakly, and wailed in his head.
