Chapter 962 - Petty Boss

n
nDing!
nCongratulations on completing all main missions, host.
nAs per usual, would the host like to receive his rewards now?'
n(^_^)
nEh?
nLandon, who was busy trying to claw-grab a teddy bear for Lucy, suddenly froze in shock.
nTalk about timing.
nBro, can't you see that we're trying to have a moment here?
n
"What's wrong?
"
nLucy, who was already holding another teddy bear won by Landon, looked at him in confusion.
nLandon's lips twitched as he smiled back at her warmly:
"it's nothing. Just felt a shiver down my spine. It's probably nothing.
"
nWithout doubting his words, she gently tapped his back worriedly, hoping that he wasn't sick or didn't catch some flu or something.
nSpeaking of which, ever since they got to Baymard, Landon had never gotten sick before.
nEven in the coldest of times, she had never seen him sniffle.
nNo matter how many warm clothes they wore, once one stepped out for a bit to do things like shovelling snow or even going stopping into their cars, the cold would undoubtedly hit them.
nOf course, it might not be detrimental, but one would least sniffle a bit here and there.
nBut she had never seen Landon do so.
nIt was as if his immune system was a pro at fighting back these common things.
n.
nWell, she didn't think it was anything weird because she had also heard of several others who had never been sick, caught any runny noses, plus and so on.
nEven some of her colleagues never got sick.
nSome were just stronger than others, and that was just a fact.
nOf course, she had classified Landon as one of these people.
nBut what if she was wrong?
nNow, she couldn't help but worry a bit after he felt a shiver down his spine.
nCould it be that his immune system was now collapsing after all the hard work it had done over the years?
nWhat should she do?
nLucy secretly kept this incident in her heart and decided that tomorrow, she would invite the royal doctor to take a good look at him.
nBut she knew that if she told Landon, he would brush it off as nothing.
nOver the years, she had also noticed something with most men.
nA majority of them didn't go for checkups as regularly as women did.
nShe went every 3 months for an around checkup because if something dared to show up, she could easily remove it when it was still at its early stage.
nBut she realized that most men were different.
nUnless they were terribly sick or at the edge of death, they wouldn't go to the hospital.
nIn fact, one might have to drag them to get regular checkups.
nThey just liked brushing it off as if it were nothing.
nShe truly felt like if they did it more often, they would've noticed and saved themselves many times before it got to a critical stage.
nSo tomorrow, she had to kidnap him and force him to go for a checkup.
nYes. That was for the best.
nAfter all, she was doing this for his own good.
n.
nMeanwhile, Landon didn't know that his so-called excuse had motivated Lucy to kidnap him tomorrow.
nWell, at least he didn't say he was thinking about work or something.
nImagine being on a date and saying that?
nWhich girl wouldn't be annoyed?
nIt would seem as if she was so boring that you had to think about work instead.
nThe duo continued their mini-date, playing games, winning prizes and also getting food too.
nTime passed by quickly, and before they knew it, it was already time to go home.
nThey dropped all kids at their residences and went back to the palace.
nLandon stayed with Lucy after dinner for a bit before going back to his room.
nJumping on his bed, he still had a very sweet smile on his face, thinking of all the prizes he won that made Lucy happy.
nSigh... Who made her so cute?
n
n
nNext year, they'll be getting married.
nMeaning soon, she would be able to move into his wing and not stay so far away from him.
nSoon, they would share the many walk-in closets here, as well as the bed.
nLandon was very much looking forward to waking up to her gorgeous face every morning.
nHe smiled broadly while rolling on the bed restlessly before pushing thoughts of her at the back of his mind.
nAlright.
nIt was time to look at his rewards.
n.
nOh?
nThis system is truly shocked that the host needs something from it.
nAfter abandoning this system for an entire day, this system thought that the host could become omnipotent without its help.
nBut now, it seems that this host is just so-so.
n'_'
nLandon raised his hands in defeat.
nArgue with the system?
nNo way.
nHe had been doing that for the last few years, and he had never won once.
nNot a single time.
nOf course, he still grumbled about its pettiness in his heart.
nAs for him abandoning the system, who wouldn't?
nDuring the day, there was no time for him to focus on the system.
nThere was always someone beside him, and he started teaching Lucy how to play and win many games.
nSo he fully concentrated on passing all his gaming knowledge without any distractions.
nPlus, couldn't the system see that he was on a date?
nSigh... What did he expect from a being that didn't understand love?
nIt was probably an old crow that had been single for ages.
nLandon rolled his eyes heavenwards at the system's pettiness.
n.
n'Oh almighty system, I wouldn't dare abandon you. Now, can you show me my mission status and rewards?'
nIt's good that you know that this system is an Almighty one.
nWith that, a pop-up screen instantly appeared before Landon's eyes.
