11 Red

"Yeah, maybe that's the case." The two parents agreed.

After this, they got more worried than before.

.....

After a few dozen more tries, he finally upgraded his Appearance. The same notification popped up, saying that changes would take effect overnight.

Of course! How terrifying would it be if one saw someone's face morphing right in front of them? The person in question would be deemed a demon!

Being deemed a demon was only in ancient times. Now, one would be turned into a lab rat, being experimented on by scientists day and night! He might even be dissected!

Neither wanting to get dissected nor deemed to be a demon, Zhou Lei found this feature of System to be convenient.

'It would be depressing if this feature acted up... Wait, stop setting up flags!'

And thus, in the future, it was almost confirmed that this feature would, indeed, act up.

.....

Zhou Jiahao, his wife, and their daughter.

The three of them were in some room other than Zhou Lei's. It would be insensitive to talk about him in the same room! What they didn't know was that the walls between rooms were thin.

After all, they had picked the room right next to Zhou Lei's. It would be weird if he couldn't hear their supposedly secret conversation.

In the room, the three were brainstorming about what they could do with Zhou Lei's sickness. This sickness was apparently a fever, but that couldn't be more wrong!

The temperature for fevers were, at most, 41 degrees. Zhou Lei's 'fever' was 6 degrees higher than that! A 6-degree discrepancy may not seem like much, but they knew better.

"Hey, do we just... leave him to die?" Zhou Jiahao asked with worry.

"No, you idiot!" Zhou Xiang punched her husband in the face.

Meanwhile, Zhou Zhenya sat in silence as she watched her two parents' fight escalating, from insulting to punching.

Zhou Lei could hear their whole conversation.

"Ai, it's not good to lie..."

He felt guilty, as he was the one that caused turmoil between his parents. Of course, this 'turmoil' was just temporary, but he caused it anyway, so he felt like he had to take responsibility for it.

With his body back to the normal temperature, he stood up and walked towards the room beside his. He barged in.

"I'm okay!"

.....

Zhou Lei's b.u.t.t was red. He would regret this decision for days to come.
