"Oh, I smiled earlier?" Feihung smiled at Silver. "Who would have thought?"

[...I thought you were a professional!]

"I am!" Feihung sighed and started to dress for the day. "It's just that...it's been a long time since I've seen someone like her..."

[!!!]

"Don't be an idiot! She's Awake! Awake!" Feihung reached over and flipped the floating pyramid. "Looked it up if you don't know that term."

[Didididi! "Awake"--being aware of a past life or has been transmigrated into another world. Usually, a host is unaware of the contract due to some systems stay ignorant or ghost systems (systems who are there but do not reveal themselves to their hosts)...etc. How do you know that Cheng Hua is Awake?]

"I'm the boss," Feihung whispered, "Cheng Hua is also her old name. I've met her once...in her original world a long time ago." Feihung smiled, "I was her...hehe, she's definitely different, but her soul is the same as always."

[her soul?]

"Yes. I can see a person's soul," Feihung blinked, his dark eyes suddenly lit up into an electric blue and the air started to feel prickly. Even Silver started to buzz from the strange atmosphere.
"[Systems also have souls, but it's functions are slightly different from inhabitants of worlds. Silver systems have a soul resembling a silver coin. Cheng Hua's soul is a dark green goo coating a white pearl.]"

[Please stop, that's freaky and it hurts.] Silver shook harder. He could feel his faces starting to rip.

Feihung blink and the room was back to normal. If Silver could release a sigh of relief, he would. So, Silver sighed in relief.

"Sorry, Silver. I didn't know connecting to my office would affect you this much." Feihung frowned in worry. "When we complete this world, I want to check on Gisan."

[Yes, Boss.]

As Feihung was about to step out the door, Xiao She came in. The two almost colliding, sending the boy to stumble back. Thankfully, he caught himself before falling over.

"Young master!"

"Xiao She," Feihung nodded as the boy greeted him. "We'll be visiting a few shops in the capital."

"Yes, sir. This servant shall call the guards!" Before anyone else could speak, Xiao She zoomed off into the distance.

[Kids are so troublesome, Boss.]

"Not Xiao She, he and his twin sister are very strong." As Feihung walked at the entrance of the estate, five guards all came out following Xiao She. The men looked serious yet anxious, especially in front of the wooden block called Cheng Feihung. "The twins are definitely trained in martial arts."

"Let's go--"

"Second older brother! Wait for me!"

Feihung quicken his pace. The guards tried to follow as the young miss behind them continued to call them out.

Cheng Feiyen yelled, "if you guards don't stop, I'm going to tell Daddy to punish you!"

"You're dismissed," Feihung announced to the guards and pulled Xiao She through the door.

"What?! Young Master those guards are specially trained and could protect Young Master from... uh... at least ten men!"

Feihung didn't listen as he pulled out a veiled hat and continued to walk. Soon, he integrated into the crowds, unseen by many. Xiao She cried in his heart as he rushed to dig him out.
