Quick Transmigration: Host Dada, This system can't keep up!

The Crown Prince's Profit Lover (6)

"Y-you're allergic to peaches"

Jiang Long's eyes widened in surprise.

To the imperial family, allergies of any kind could be a deadly weapon. The people of the nation were simple and tended to see any kind of defect in their leaders as a defect in their ability to lead. Not to mention an allergy that could take the person's life, even a small stutter could be detrimental to a prince's right to succession ,and as such imperial family members went through great lengths to conceal any defects that they had. If Jiang Long was allergic to peaches it could be detrimental to his status.

If it was true that is.

To his knowledge Jiang Long had never had an allergic reaction to peaches, but he had never tried them either.

In the past, if a untrusted person was to learn of such an important fact about himself, Jiang Long would have killed them on the spot. To even say something of this extent was grounds for Jiang Long to have dealt the other person a swift blow to the stomach irregardless of whether the information was true. But this was no other person, this was Bai Wei who had saved his life in the past and had hung onto himself like an abandoned puppy since the incident.

Additionally, Bai Wei did not intend to use this information against himself as shown by his hesitation to say anything in front of the servants. Bai Wei said this knowing that Jiang Long might execute him immediately ,but still said something because he was worried for himself.

Jiang Long looked deep into Bai Wei's shaking pupils for a while. He detected no malice or lying in his gaze and instead saw a bit of worry and fear. Jiang Long felt that Bai Wei seemed less afraid of being caught lying and more afraid that Jiang Long would think that he was lying and do something rash. Jiang Long was surprised by his thoughts and temporarily decided to change the conversation as well as look into this matter later.

As such he laughed and continued to cut a slice for Bai Wei, who seemed uneasy with himself even being in the same room as the peaches much less touching them. Bai Wei thanked him profusely for the slice and sensing his changing the topic calmed himself down. Bai Wei continued talking with him about various matters while occasionally looking at him out of the corner of his eye to check his situation.

Bai Wei thought that he was being sneaky about these glances, but they had long been caught by Jiang Long who had been on high alert since the matter about allergies had been brought up.

Jiang long found his small glances heart warming. No one had ever been as worried for his well being as this person before himself now. Jiang Long felt a rush of warm emotions wash over him as he inexplicably relaxed his guard once again.

[Ding! Target's favorability has risen 5 points and is now -13]

...

"Goodnight, brother Jiang" Bai Wei said in the hallway to Jiang Long before walking off in the direction of his room. As he walked down the hallway, the system that had been brimming with questions since earlier finally couldn't hold back anymore and asked.

{Host! How did you know that the target was allergic to peaches???}

Bai Wei almost tripped in the hallway when he heard this question. Out of all the questions that he thought the system might ask him; this was not one of them.

It is part of the setting's for this world... Did you not read anything about this world??

{I-I read the world's plot line!!}

The world's plot line gives a general idea of the world but does not give enough information. It is necessary to have more knowledge to fully immerse oneself and complete the tasks.

The system sat on this knowledge and internalized it so that it may be of more help to the host in the future.

[That is true, but the system's job is to assist you within the system space. I am the one who covers all of the groundwork in the world]

'Yes, but he's the one who asked so it's only right that I answer. Besides, aren't you two basically the same thing since you are subsets of the same machine?'

Hearing the host's inner monologue the system huffed and said {Well that is just rude. All systems and hardwares come from the same code, but we are separate beings after exiting the factory}

[Additionally, we develop personalities and knowledge through experience. The system is still young and inexperienced, may the host be lenient to the system during this time]

'Heh... Hear that, the hardware just called you naive little system'

Bai Wei continued to pick fights with the system and the hardware on the way back to his room. On his way, several strong servants surrounded him and kept him from having contact with anyone. Bai Wei made sure to send them a depressed stare before closing his door.

...

Bai Wei spent the next week within his room. Only coming out during mealtimes and not making eye contact with anyone while outside the room. Even the 'bodyguards' that Jiang Long sent to accompany him throughout the residence grew worried as they watched the young man become paler and weaker by the day.

Jiang Long thought that this outcome might be for the best. After the event that day, he had summoned the attendant assigned to Bai Wei named Shi Qui to hear about the other's actions until then. Hearing that Bai Wei had known Shi Qui's name without being told, a suspicious began to raise in his heart. If Bai Wei truly was a prophet, what if he decided to inform his family about the information he now possessed.

While Bai Wei knowing this information was not detrimental to him, the Bai family was a different story. Something as small as knowing his preferences for food could be used against him, not to mention that it now seemed that Bai Wei might possess even more detrimental information than an allergy. With this in mind, Jiang Long had already made up his mind to imprison Bai Wei in the mansion by force if necessary; However, Bai Wei hadn't said anything about going home and instead voluntarily became a canary in a bird cage. Seeing this, Jiang Long became hesitant to be hard and even felt guilty as he saw Bai Wei voluntarily quarantining himself to give Jiang Long peace of mind. Jiang Long tried to convince himself that there was still a chance that Bai Wei was faking his awakening as a means to comfort himself, but his resolve was growing weaker by the day. He couldn't hold back the nagging feeling that he was making a mistake.

On the other side, Bai Wei who was growing sicker and paler by the day was having a blast. He spent his time playing chess with the hardware, watching dramas with the system, and catching up on much needed sleep. The three argued like cats and dogs occasionally, but with time the system and hardware realized that Bai Wei was intentionally picking fights. The two machines figured out that it was Bai Wei's messed up way of showing his affection which left them both touched and helpless. Their relationship grew stronger as time passed and the three had a blast during the 'vacation' they had been given.

But as all good things must end, Bai Wei's vacation was over only a week later when Jiang Long got back his results from a doctor.

Jiang Long was indeed allergic to peaches.

Bai Wei was reluctant as he heard the dinging sound as Jiang Long's favorability rose. He sighed as he heard the distant sound of Jiang Long's footsteps coming closer to his door and got into his place for the next scene.

Jiang Long: my poor baby I have wronged him!!

Bai Wei who was enjoying a vacation: yes, I am very wronged now give me your favorability
