"Gui Gui, I feel like you've been really perfunctory with me lately."

After more than a month of inquiries with the sect leader and senior brother, Mingmei and her group finally received definite information.

In two days, her parents will really be back.

Satisfied with the answer, Mingmei returned to her room, but then remembered that Guigui's temper had been like a powder keg lately, so she complained.

"Is there?" Gui Gui asked this question with a particularly resentful tone.

"Yes~ I shared with you that I found out about Mu Chen, and this is your attitude?" Mingmei didn't believe that Guigui couldn't tell. "You're just being perfunctory with me. Your tone is full of impatience."

Gui Gui, as if she had been holding back for a long time, finally couldn't bear it any longer and said, "Host, do you know how many times you've said that already?"

"Huh?" The blank look on Mingmei's face made Guigui even angrier.

You said this to me a month ago, you said it half a month ago, you said it three days ago, you said it the day before yesterday and yesterday, and you still say it today...

Even the ghost felt that it wasn't its host that had entered some kind of escape horror game, but rather itself!

Every few days, it would see Mingmei and Mu Chen, recognize each other, and share their surprise or joy with her. Then, the next day, she would forget everything.

All memories related to Mu Chen.

Then it was just a constant repetition.

Although Gui Gui had seen that senior named "Dai Mei" post on the forum about her host encountering a lunatic who almost caused the whole world to collapse.

It even gathered a crowd to watch, wanting to see who it was!

After that, Mu Chen and his host have been together until now. It has also learned some information from other places, and it can't help but praise the other party's tenacious character as truly rare.

It's only been two or three months and it's already going crazy.

The other person persisted for several years, patiently recreating the scene of their first meeting with Mingmei each time.

Then, the host was gone.

Anyone would go crazy in this situation.

Mei Jiu had been missing Ming Yi and the others terribly lately. Last month, after hearing rumors that her parents were coming back (though the news wasn't even true), she couldn't hold back for several days and decided to sneak off the mountain. (cascoo.net)

As a result, Qi Tianqing happened to be there and brought her along. From then on, she was always by Qi Tianqing's side, so she never saw the well-behaved and bright Mei Mei or the mischievous Mei Jiu again.

Mingmei agreed to go down the mountain to pick up Meijiu every evening, and during this time, the probability of her meeting with Mu Chen alone increased.

Each time felt like the first time they met. Later, she realized through Mu Chen's subtle actions that the person in front of her was not Xie Chen, but Mu Chen.

She was always happy when she came back.

She said she had seen Mu Chen and that he was safe, but then she worried that his condition might be dangerous.

Watching Mingmei experience this scene repeatedly is really getting to Guigui's mind.

Between her and Mu Chen, one of them has to go crazy.

[Host, I seriously suspect the game's mechanics are seriously ill.]

Although her words sounded like she was cursing, Guigui was genuinely worried about her host.

What's with all this talk about fate? Why do you have to pick on one person to forget?

These past few days, Gui Gui has felt worried and anxious every time she hears Ming Mei say the same things.

It felt it was completely useless in this round, having offered absolutely no help.

"So, I've repeated this many times today?"

Mingmei calmed down in response to Guigui's sudden anger. She sat there, took a deep breath, thought carefully, and asked, "Have I really experienced this kind of thing many times?"

Yes. No.

When Mingmei asked, Guigui, like a diary, gave Mingmei a series of dates, each one a date when she met Mu Chen.

Although GuiGui's video recording function has been disabled, it is still an artificial intelligence, not an idiot.

[On March 1st, the host and Mu Chen recognized each other for the first time and made an agreement to meet every three days for snacks and to exchange information on their next meeting.]

On March 3rd, the host and Mu Chen recognized each other for the second time and made an agreement to meet every three days to enjoy some snacks and exchange information.

…

[On March 29th, the host and Mu Chen recognized each other for the fifteenth time and agreed to meet every three days to enjoy some snacks and exchange information.]

...

On April 4th, during a spontaneous trip down the mountain, she unexpectedly encountered Mu Chen. The two recognized each other and agreed to meet again sometime to chat.

On April 5th, while picking up Mei Jiu from the mountain, I ran into Mu Chen. The two recognized each other and agreed to meet again sometime.

On April 6th, while picking up Mei Jiu from the mountain, I ran into Mu Chen. The two recognized each other and agreed to meet again sometime.

On April 7th, while descending the mountain to pick up Mei Jiu, I ran into Mu Chen. The two recognized each other and agreed to meet again sometime.

...

[On April 18th, which is today, you went down the mountain to pick up Mei Jiu and ran into Mu Chen. The two recognized each other and agreed to meet and chat another time.]

The same thing kept repeating itself, but Mingmei had no recollection of it at all. Every night before bed, Guigui would listen to Mingmei talk about it, and then, with a blink of an eye, she would remember everything from the previous day except for Mu Chen.

Even ghosts get anxious when they see this!

It had told its host about this quite a few times, but each time the host would immediately and calmly analyze her own problems, then discuss them with it, and eventually fall asleep while discussing them.
