"Fle..."

Ye Qiu called out to Fle telepathically.

But Fle didn't respond.

"Fle?"

Ye Qiu asked again, but Fle still didn't answer. Just as Ye Qiu was about to inquire for the third time, Fle's voice, somewhat lazy, rang out: "What do you want?"

"Hmm?"

Hearing this voice, clearly different from before, not an electronic tone, Ye Qiu was taken aback.

At this moment, Fle's voice wasn't just non-electronic; it was filled with a hint of seductive allure amidst the laziness.

Just hearing the voice and associating it, one would think of an enticing woman speaking.

"A woman's voice?"

Ye Qiu wondered, then asked, "Fle, are you female?"

Ye Qiu had always been highly curious about Fle.

The Car God System inside his body was developed by Fle, and when his Intelligence Attribute was upgraded to Level 5, he had seen scenes beyond Earth, knowing that Fle wasn't from Earth.

And upon subsequent inquiries, Fle neither confirmed nor denied this.

Thus, Ye Qiu was even more curious about Fle's identity.

Simultaneously, Ye Qiu also harbored deep curiosity about Fle's gender.

Because Fle was inside his body, if it were a man, it would be fine; seeing some things when he was sleeping or using the bathroom would be no big deal.

If it were a woman inside his body, then wouldn't he be completely seen when sleeping or using the bathroom?

Hence, Ye Qiu had always been eager to upgrade the system to Level 3.

However, upgrading the system to Level 3 required finding the Energy Crystal Chip left behind when Fle arrived on Earth.

Now, one piece had been found, upgrading the system to Level 2. For Fle to manifest a form, the system needed to be upgraded to Level 3.

He must find another Energy Crystal Chip for this.

So Ye Qiu had always kept the quest to find the Energy Crystal Chip in mind, and just when he was trying to get some answers from Fle, he unexpectedly heard Fle's alluring female voice, leaving him puzzled for a moment.

But after his questioning, Fle remained silent.

Fle felt a bit regretful and self-reproachful: "Ah, how did I get so drowsy and accidentally reveal my original voice?"

Listening to Ye Qiu's constant urging from outside, Fle covered it up with an electronic tone again, saying, "Why call me? I can change my voice at any time."

Saying this, Fle continued to change between several voices repeatedly.

"Got it?" Fle asked.

Ye Qiu was somewhat skeptical but still curious and said, "Is there any lead on the Energy Crystal Chip?"

Ye Qiu didn't hold much hope, but what Fle said next made Ye Qiu very happy.

"I thought there wouldn't be any in Shangjing, but after you returned to Shangjing, I detected Energy Crystal Chip fluctuations in the area, which is strange. When I first arrived on Earth, I remembered clearly the locations where the nine Energy Crystal Chips were distributed, and there was none in Shangjing... What's going on?"

Ye Qiu didn't pay attention to Fle's latter words but was delighted to hear that there was an Energy Crystal Chip in Shangjing. He was also eagerly awaiting Fle's detection of the chip's location.

Once he obtained the next Energy Crystal Chip, he'd be able to upgrade the Car God System to Level 3, not only enabling Fle to manifest a form but also bringing about the birth of a Talent Skill.

Suppressing the anticipation in his heart, Ye Qiu remembered the reason for seeking Fle and asked: "Fle, I want to ask, after my body has been strengthened by the system, besides internal changes, will there also be changes to my skin on the surface?"

"Of course..."

Fle said.

Ye Qiu was momentarily stunned and then asked urgently, "What do you mean?"

Fle replied, "While the system enhances your body's strength and constitution, it also helps expel impurities from your body, naturally improving your skin."

"I see. Then, if there were any birthmarks on the skin, would they also disappear?" Ye Qiu asked.

Fle said, "Obviously..."

Ye Qiu was stunned and didn't catch what Fle said next. He just felt his brain buzzing.

"Did I originally have a birthmark on my body?"

"Am I actually a descendant of the Ye Family? Could I be the missing third son?"

"Was my original birthmark erased by the system's body enhancement?"

A series of questions emerged in Ye Qiu's mind, causing him a headache.

Although he wasn't certain whether he originally had a birthmark, he felt a bit lost at this moment.

If there was one, and it was erased by the system, then wouldn't that make him the missing third son of the Ye Family?

Even though he didn't care whether he was a member of the Ye Family, missing out due to a mistake and not recognizing them would lead to a lifetime of regret.

Moreover, when Ye Qiu was young, he indeed never saw his grandfather, nor did Ye Xiong ever mention his grandparents.

"Could it really be true?" Ye Qiu looked at the old man and then thought to himself: "Looks like I'll have to ask Dad when I go home."

The old man seemed to notice something strange about Ye Qiu's expression and asked, "What's wrong, young man?"

Ye Qiu suspected that the old man in front of him might be his grandfather, so he spoke more boldly, finding the old man kind and feeling somewhat excited: "Oh, it's nothing, sir."

"Really nothing?"

The old man looked at Ye Qiu.

Ye Qiu wanted to explain his situation but hesitantly kept silent.

He couldn't disclose anything about the system to anyone. Telling the old man now would make it difficult to explain the missing birthmark.

If, in the end, it seemed to the Ye Family that he wanted to capitalize on their influence, it would be troublesome.

Ye Qiu nodded, "I'm fine, sir."

The old man looked deeply at Ye Qiu, then waved his hand, his gaze flickering for a moment before he said, "Don't call me sir anymore; just call me grandpa."

"Yes, grandpa..."

Ye Qiu blurted out and was taken aback after saying it. The old man was also surprised.

The old man then laughed heartily, looking at Ye Qiu with satisfaction. He said, "Good, good, good, you're a fine young man, I like you a lot..."

Thinking a bit, the old man said, "Though Xiu Juan has confirmed you're not a descendant of the Ye Family, you're a clever young chap, and I, the old man, like you. So how about considering you as my god-grandson? It's fitting since we both have the surname Ye. What do you think?"

Ye Qiu was stunned, then kneeled in front of the old man, kowtowing: "Grandpa above."

"Ha-ha, good, good, good..."

The old man looked at the kneeling Ye Qiu with satisfaction, not feeling that Ye Qiu was trying to flatter and take advantage because of the Ye Family's power.

Having lived through so much and experienced so much of the world, he could naturally see through people at a glance.

Furthermore, he had thoroughly reviewed Ye Qiu's information, so he was very satisfied with Ye Qiu's current performance.

"Genuine, neither servile nor overbearing."

That was the old man's evaluation of Ye Qiu.

He then waved for Ye Qiu to stand up, looking at the young man he had initially thought was his grandson, and sighed: "Though you're not my biological grandson, henceforth, I'll treat you as one. From now on, whether in Shangjing or Huaxia, if there's anything, just tell your god-grandpa. You're always welcome at the Ye Family, treat it like your own home."
