"If I remember correctly, as long as Yu Fei and Xi Anran got together and live a happy ending, the mission is over?"
008 affirms Xi Sheng's query.
"Then, does it depend whether or not they may be satisfied or not?"
008:"As I've said, the results only matters the most."
It doesn't matter whether the leads are satisfied about their relationship or they were forced, so long as the end meets the original trajectory's requirements, any methods will do.
Xi Sheng nodded with delight:"Then, is there a time restriction?"
008:"There is, approximately one week. If the host exceeds the given time, rewards reduction will be implemented as a punishment."
"What? And you just told me now?"
008 closed his eyes and scratch his head:"Forgot..."
Xi Sheng thinks that 008 is messing with her and actually has no motive to inform her.
008 sighs and defends himself that he truly forgot, but his real self thinks:Why should I let you know?
Xi Sheng offers the system a compelled smile. It looks like this week is going to be troublesome. How annoying.
....
Xi Sheng chatted with the System for the time being until she returned from the reality from being called by Xi Anran.
"Sis, why don't you go home for a while? I think there's something wrong with the clan," Xi Anran said worriedly.
Its already four in the afternoon, and yet the sky is already dark. The weather forecast said that its going to be a fine sunny day but all she could think was that weather forecasters cannot be trusted anymore. Apparently, there is possibility of snowstorm.
When she heard Xi Anran's question, she can't help to find it quite weird.
Xi parents? Well, to tell you the truth my dearest little brother, they won't appear....unless you can speed the time and transport us into the future of one week. In short, Xi parents will only appear to comfort you after your future predicament. Quite harsh, but true.

"Mom and Dad is in constant strife within the clan. They will appear next week. The conflict is within the older generation, youngsters like us have no business with it. So you better not stress yourself about it, just continue to recuperate."
Xi Sheng left Xi Anran pouting. When she opened the door, several bodyguards were stationed there. Their presence made Xi Sheng raised her eyebrow.
Xi Sheng:"Oh. I remember that these guys exist."
She swept her eyes onto them. None of the guards' faces were familiar to her memory.
"Where's Captain Seven and his team?"
A tall man with fine features and build saluted to her:"Reporting to young miss, Captain Seven's team were called back by the clan."
Xi Sheng:"When they were transported?"
"Yesterday."
"When did your team arrived? What's your name?"
"Reporting, this one's given name is Five andCaptain Seven's junior associate. We arrived today at exactly eleven in the morning."
Xi Sheng nodded at him:"Continue to patrol and guard."
When Xi Sheng left, the man named Five took his phone and dialed someone.
After conversing with the new 'captain,' Xi Sheng cannot help but to sigh in annoyance.
It looks like the trouble has started.
....
In a blink of an eye, three days have already passed. Her schedule only includes:Take care of Xi Anran, visit Yu Fei and observe Mu Ziyu.
In these three days, Xi Sheng abolished a huge number of mental asylums that Yu Zhan owns. While she didn't feel any movements from him, Xi Sheng is a hundred-percent sure that it's only a matter of time before he moves.
(Ding! 2 messages received from Mom and Yu)
Xi Sheng expected Yu Zhan to move, but from Xi parents? A message from them is enough to shock her.
Xi Sheng open the message from Mom:Dear, come to our house ASAP.
Well, asking her to meet them up is quite...weird. Or maybe, the system is just too useless or he caught some virus that the data he gave to her is full of bugs.
008:"Hey! That's below the belt! Me, the great and all-powerful system caught a virus? Heh, if you say that I am useless, then no one will claim to be the greatest!"
Xi Sheng retorted back:"You mean, that if you claim to be the greatest, then no one will declares to be an idiot."
008:"..." Are you saying that I'm not idiot?
Xi Sheng then opened Yu Zhan's messgae:"My house, 4pm."
First thing come to her mind is the word, TRAP.
Feeling that this is his movement, will Xi Sheng go?
She replied him:"Okay."
Of course, Xi Sheng, this dumb human, will go even if she knew that is a trap.
008 was speechless:"If you say you're a genius, the word 'fool' will lose its meaning."
Xi Sheng shrug:"Atleast, I'm unique."
008:"250[1] Sheng."
Xi Sheng went to see Xi Anran but found him asleep. She hugged him and placed a small note to his hand.
Xi Sheng whispered to his ear:"This will probably our last meeting, yet you're sleeping. You're kind of a nerd and simpleton, but I don't hate you. Please live well."
A tear escaped from her eyes.
"Your sister really loves you." And so, I hope that you also help me accomplish my mission by marrying Yu Fei.
008 dumbstruck:"You're using the true owner's emotions in the wrong way."
Xi Sheng didn't bother visiting Yu Fei and Mu Ziyu, they will meet again anyway.
She drove into their house and was given and stack of document before being driven away by the butlers. In the end, she didn't meet the Xi parents.
008:"I don't have a bug. I told you."
Xi Sheng rolled her eyes.
Who cares whether you have a bug or not? It does not matter.
008"..." Just wait. Hmp.
There are still two hours before her met up with Yu Zhan. So, she stayed up in her car and read the documents inside.
There is a word 'MISSING' written in red at the top of the paper. When she opened it, the first thing she saw was a picture of bodyguards. To be specific, it was a picture of Seven and his team.
Furthermore, when she looked at Seven's fingers, her body freezed.
They were missing since four days ago and Seven, the head of the guards, was wearing a golden ring engraved with the number '7' on it.
That ring.... She can't even be more familiar with it.
.....
[1] 250- means 'half-insane' or 'idiot'. The story is basically that in ancient China, coins were strung together in stacks of 1000. It was considered modest and politely self-deprecating for scholars to refer to themselves as "half a stack"—in other words, "500." Half of 500 is, of course, 250, so 二百五 (èr bǎi wǔ) came to refer to someone who's so dumb they aren't even half a stack.
