A Failure's hopeful Journey

You Xi Wang could not believe it when he heard Petra's voice. His heart was beating quick. Since he did not react for a few seconds Petra spoke again, "Xi Wang, are you asleep already?" this time her silky voice contained hints of confusion. 

The teenager was aroused, and he stood up from the couch in excitement. He restrained his emotions and spoke, "Petra, are you sure?" the calmness in his voice contradicted the excitement in his eyes. 

Petra inside the room gulped a mouthful of saliva, and with a flushed face, she said, "Yes, if you don't mind you can come inside. We are girlfriend boyfriend after all."

You Xi Wang nodded and walked up to the room. He pushed the slightly open door and saw Petra lying on the bed, covered with a thin quilt, highlighting her curves perfectly. If not for his image, he would have howled like a wolf. The room was simply decorated with two lamps by the headrest of the bed. The bed was made from wood and the headrest was decorated with jade leaves. Petra looked like a fragile porcelain doll as she laid on the king-size bed. 

You Xi Wang came up and laid down by her side. He said nothing because he could say nothing. At this moment his heart was beating so fast that he felt a little dizzy. He was unaware that Petra on the other side of the bed was going through the same sensation. She was even shivering slightly. You Xi Wang calmed down and he noticed the situation. He turned on his side as he laid. Now he was facing Petra's back. He spoke, "Petra, look at me." his voice was firm and domineering.

Petra turned on her side slowly. Her reaction was subconscious as she found herself unable to reject You Xi Wang. She turned and coincidently, their eyes locked with each other. The two did not speak but kept looking each other in the eye. Petra calmed down and the pace of her breath matched that of You Xi Wang. The two were lost in each other's eyes. After some time they noticed this and let out a smile. the smile turned into a burst of hearty laughter. Petra spoke, "That was so embarrassing."

You Xi Wang shifted a little closer to Petra. His action was noticed by the girl, and she also did not shy away and shifted a little closer to him. Their hands touched, then their fingers crossed. They laid in the bed holding hands. Petra closed her eyes, and she wanted to kiss him but You Xi Wang said, "Petra if we took another step then I might lose control. I love you, but the Yang essence in my body is useful to me. Only after I turn eighteen can I cross the bridge of celibacy."

Petra opened her eyes, and she smiled, "I forgot you were only sixteen. Also, I might have kicked you out if you did something like that. I am not ready now. Our relationship is still going too fast."

You Xi Wang nodded and said, "Yes, but that may be because of my charm. You have been smitten by me?"

Petra snorted and said, "Humph, I am sure that you are surely smitten by yourself, Young Master. You are so narcissistic. How come I did not see it earlier?"

You Xi Wang spoke, "Do you think I am a liar, Petra?" his expression was that of surprise, voice filled with anguish. Petra thought he took her joke seriously. She hurriedly held his hand with both of her hands and said, "I was joking, Xi Wang. Please."

You Xi Wang looked at her and said, "I was also joking Petra." a sly smirk appeared on his lips while his eyes brimmed with mischief. Petra was surprised, but before she could express her dissatisfaction. You Xi Wang attack her smooth belly with his fingers and tickled her. The room was filled with laughter and begging sounds of Petra. After ten minutes, Petra laid with her head using You Xi Wang's shoulder as a pillow and You Xi Wang held her waist in his hand. The two people talked a little and then fell asleep unknowingly.

...

The next Morning, XiaoAi's voice rang up, "Sister Petra, wake up. It's morning."

Petra was a light sleeper, and she woke up after one call from XiaoAi. She replied in a groggy voice, "I am up, XiaoAi. Please make two cups of coffee and also 4 slices of honey toast." 

XiaoAi replied, "Command accepted."

XiaoAi had a direct uplink with some equipment in the kitchen, such as the coffee machine and the toaster. Petra noticed that You Xi Wang was still sleeping and did not disturb him. She stood up and rushed to the bathroom to freshen up and get ready for the office. You Xi Wang felt her actions but kept laying down because he could only use the bathroom after Petra is done. Their relationship was not something like he had with Emily and Susan. 

He suddenly stood up and used his Holo-phone and called Emily. The call connected, Emily's smiling face appeared in front of him. You Xi Wang spoke with a smile, "Hello beautiful lady."

Emily replied, "Hello handsome." she giggled after this.

You Xi Wang spoke, "Someone is getting bolder, eh."

Emily replied, "Yes, sister Susan's teachings are very useful to me." her voice was filled with pride, as if Susan's corruption was a good thing for her. You Xi Wang helplessly shook his head and said, "Emily, please select a nice suit from the wardrobe for me, please. I have a press address to attend today. tell Uncle Robert to drive you to the venue."

Emily nodded and replied, "I will get it done Young Master." she would reject nothing You Xi Wang had asked for. She had walked towards his room when he has just spoken the first sentence. You Xi Wang just watched her move through the corridors and did not disconnect the call. 

[How long are you going to play the lover boy? I know that they all love you a lot and you are a love depraved person and you appreciate it, but guess it is time for you to complete the first task. System task is being issued:

You are to exercise revenge on the Colt family, duration six months. The task is mandatory and must be completed. The faster you complete the task, the better the reward. The punishment will be me taking possession of your body.]

You Xi Wang felt like he was hit by a bolt of lightning. He spoke, 'What the fuck did you say? I have system tasks? How come you never issued one earlier? You told me the punishment, but what about the reward?'

The system replied, [The system tasks are issued depending on the system's mood. In the past, I did not feel like it so I did not issue any tasks. Now that I see you indulging in the pleasure of the flesh, I feel like it is too bad to be stuck inside you. I want to go out and have some fun. As for the rewards. The reward is definitely your freedom. I won't possess you.] the tone used was as if nothing has happened, but this information shattered You Xi Wang's mind to pieces. 

You Xi Wang asked again, 'Hey are you not an entity sourced by me? How can you just come out and possess me on a whim?'

The system spoke in an annoyed tone, [Did you forget that the source of my existence is your outburst of negative emotions? I am a dark entity living inside you. The day I want it, I can make you turn to the dark side. But your stupid vows have made that impossible otherwise I this body would be destroyed by the heavenly lightning.]

You Xi Wang sat up in the bed, his back was covered with cold sweat. His breathing was ragged. He was scared. He did not expect the system to be a dark entity. His brain started working at a high speed. He wanted to think of a solution to this problem.

Petra was done freshening up and came out of the bathroom. She saw You Xi Wang sitting up on the bed with sweat on his forehead. His expression was horrified. Petra was worried that something had happened. She came to his side and asked, "Xi Wang, what happened? Are you okay? Tell me, what happened? Please don't scare me. Xi Wang, love, are you listening to me?" the girl was scared to see him not replying to her, and he did not even react to her. 

She held his shoulders and shook his body. You Xi Wang was brought back from his train of thoughts. He realized Petra has been asking him something and when he saw the worried expression on her face, he felt guilty. He raised his hand and cupped her jade face in his palm. He said, "Nothing sweetheart, I just had a nightmare and was lost in the afterthoughts."

Petra sighed with relief. She pushed back his hand and said, "Go take a bath, you are sweating too much. We will be late if you did not hurry."

You Xi Wang nodded. He got up from the bed and walked to the bathroom. He was about to enter when he heard Petra say, "You can leave your used clothes inside the washer. I will clean them with mine. Okay?" her face was covered by two red clouds. 

You Xi Wang absent-mindedly replied, "Okay." he entered the bathroom after leaving these words behind him. Petra sensed this peculiarity and asked again after You Xi Wang comes out of the bathroom. 

Inside the bathroom, You Xi Wang had just started the water shower when the system spoke up again, [Oh, master, I want to tell you something.]

You Xi Wang was scared and asked, 'What?'

The system said, [Xi Wang, I was joking don't take it seriously.] the voice was just like how Petra spoke last night just with a manly pitch.

You Xi Wang froze in the spot. He cursed inside, 'Fuckkkkk, fuck you. Bitch, I was so scared. Motherfucker I would kill you.@@##@*&$^*&$*^%&^#%$(*&#)(*)^@$@#!' the cursing continued for a long time and the system kept on laughing. It took pleasure when he sensed You Xi Wang's pain.
