"Hi~ Host, are you alright?"

The system cautiously asked Xia Shizhao, whose face was pale. She answered with her eyes closed, "Still alive."

"Um·····"

After hesitating for a moment, the system finally spoke up and explained to her:

"I have something to tell you, it's just... it's just... you have to stay in this space for four years, and your identity will be a 14-year-old beta who lost his parents at a relatively well-off family and grew up alone. But you're not a real beta; you're a beta who hides his omega identity to protect himself. Because when you leave, you'll still be in your original body. When you leave, you'll only be 16 years old. Then you can study hard in high school for two years and take the exam to get into the university you want."

"that's all?"

"Yes, this is an identity I made up for you. On a remote and underdeveloped little planet with beautiful scenery, you can stay here... Although your poison has been cured, there are still some aftereffects..."

The system seemed a little guilty as it spoke.

Xia Shizhao looked obviously out of sorts; his eyes were darting around, his body was trembling from time to time, and he was constantly anxiously clenching his palms.

She pressed her hand down, took a deep breath, and said with a determined look in her eyes, "Okay, I can accept being reborn every four years."

"Okay, I'll set up a suitable study environment for you. Consider this my way of making it up to you. You can close your eyes and rest for a while. I'll give you a surprise in a few hours."

Xia Shizhao looked at the bouncy little white ball that flew out in front of him and poked it in surprise, "Are you a system?"

Yes~

Her eyes narrowed slightly.

The system had a bad feeling. Taking two steps back was too late. Xia Shizhao squeezed the soft white ball with a satisfied look on his face and relaxed. "Just like a slime, let me squeeze it for a while."

"Waaah~ No, stop pinching me~"

"How come you suddenly have a physical form?"

"Because of our negligence, you were pulled into a spacetime rift. The controller told me to take good care of you, and as an exception, they gave me a physical form."

"Control unit?"

"To put it another way, the gods you humans talk about."

"Alright, go get me a room first, I need to rest."

Okay~

I rested my chin on my hand and watched as the little white ball was pieced together, creating a familiar room.

Looking at the room, which was exactly the same as in his previous life, Xia Shizhao was stunned. He walked in with some disbelief and exclaimed, "Amazing!"

"Of course! You get some rest, and we'll build you a luxurious villa tomorrow! You can even move there to where you want to live!"

The little white ball bounced and darted about playfully, giving Xia Shizhao a headache.

She pursed her lips and suppressed it. "I'm going to rest. You can turn off my senses. I'll wake up on my own when I'm well-rested."

"Okay, you can rest now. Would you like a bedtime story?"

The system asked cautiously.

Xia Shizhao smiled faintly and gave it a light tap on the head. "No need. I can handle it myself. Just remember to get me a big study, a studio, and a training room."

"Okay, everything is fine. I can provide you with whatever else you need and try my best to meet your needs."

"This is really great, a treasure bag!"

Xia Shizhao smiled and pinched its round cheeks, looking at its tiny eyes with a strange sense of amusement. "Also, make your squinty eyes bigger, otherwise you'll look like a thief."

He laughed out loud with pleasure, then turned and closed the door.

The system, left bewildered and full of question marks, looked in the mirror in disbelief. It was white and round like a steamed bun, but definitely not a thief! It looked like a thief! It had chosen the appearance to make her laugh, and she actually said it looked like a thief. That was too much!

Waaaaah, the little white ball's heart shattered in an instant.

But it still obediently changed its appearance, transforming itself into a Samoyed.

This is one of the most popular appearances predicted by the system's big data. It nodded in satisfaction, thinking that humans couldn't find fault with it now.

It even wants to touch its own soft fur.

If Xia Shizhao were outside right now, she would see a Samoyed huffing and puffing as it builds a house and furnishes it for her.

They were extremely busy.

At this moment, the fire at the Xia family's residence was extinguished.

After dismissing her subordinates, Ye Qiuling looked at the room, which was still relatively intact, and found the original diary in Xia Shizhao's storage room, casually flipping through a few pages.

Ye Qiuling clenched her slender fingers tighter and tighter, covering her face with her arm, and lay dejectedly on the hanging basket where Xia Shizhao used to sit, her hand holding the diary hanging limply at her side.

clatter--

The diary fell to the ground.

On a scattered page are a girl's rambling thoughts.

"Ouch, you pervert, you bit my lip. You wouldn't take the medicine I was giving you, you just ate my saliva instead. No, I need to be more careful next time. She's too aggressive, I almost strangled her to death. I'll strangle her back sooner or later."

A line of small print next to it reads: "So what if I hold a grudge?"

"Good heavens, the female lead almost died! I was so scared, I thought we had to start over. Thank goodness she didn't die... she was saved. I'm practically a miracle doctor."

"Ye Qiuling! I hate you! You actually hit me! I'll get my revenge someday. Oh well, I can't beat you, so I'll just stay away."

"Ugh, they're always fighting. Are these people crazy? But I've improved a lot, and I have far fewer injuries. But you still have to give me the medicine. It must have tasted bitter. I did it on purpose. But since your injuries weren't serious this time, I'll make you a strawberry-flavored one as a reward."

"They are pure carnivores and don't like to eat vegetables and fruits, but that's normal for them to grow."

"You owe me 500,000. It cost a lot of money to make medicine for you. I'm already poor, sob sob. Remember to pay me back when you have the money. I can't even afford adaptive clothes, I haven't even worn them yet."

"I bought her a new optical computer. If she doesn't want it, fine, I'll use it myself."

"Oh ho, you finally wrote me a note. But what are you doubting? What do you have to offer me? Stop pointing fingers."

After that line of text, there was a chibi-style figure rolling its eyes.

"A perfectly normal person has to have a mouth, but as long as they like small cakes, that's fine."

Ye Qiuling clenched the note in her palm. It read, "Who are you? Why are you helping me? Anyway, thank you, I really like the little cake."

That was my reply to that little sun emoji back then.

The diary also contained many little notes in which she replied, which were the daily exchanges between the two girls in secret.

But how could Little Sun be Xia Shizhao...?

"I know, but I don't know if you can find me. Maybe she'll be dead by the time you find her."

How could this be? The handwriting is completely different from her handwriting in her previous life. Could it be that she really isn't her?

Thinking of this, Ye Qiuling felt a tightness in her chest. She sat up, somewhat bewildered, wondering why she suddenly had memories of her past life. That's why she ran away early in this life and avoided a lot of harm. But thinking back carefully, Xia Shizhao's reaction when she first came to the Xia family was different from her previous life. In her previous life, she was splashed with ice water and went back to her room soaking wet. Because there was no heating in the storage room, she caught a cold.

If Xia Shizhao hadn't suddenly fainted, and the nanny hadn't exaggerated the situation, she wouldn't have been forced to kneel by Xia's parents.

She didn't have to come out that day because it was raining, but she not only chased away the nanny who had humiliated her, but even hoped that she would give in and take her inside. At that time, she was stubborn and pushed her, sending herself to the solitary confinement room.

And that day in the cafeteria, she instinctively slapped her hand away. Mu and Zhan were very angry at the time, and logically, she should have faced a lot of trouble afterward. But unexpectedly, nothing happened, and even those connected to them didn't lay a hand on her...

Therefore, what she said about being forced might be true.

Thinking of the look in her eyes when she jumped off the cliff and her emaciated body from the torment, Ye Qiuling felt regret.

She pinched his palm until it was stained with bright red blood, which dripped onto the ground from the back of his hand.

She lay on the hanging basket like a wooden statue for a long time. After having someone put away Xia Shizhao's things, she put the diary into the storage device, looked up at the dark sky, blood spilled from the corner of her mouth, wiped it away indifferently, stood up and left the messy Xia family home in a dejected manner.

He wandered the streets like a lost soul, letting the heavy rain soak him.

Like a helpless little animal.

After walking around for an unknown amount of time, Ye Qiuling returned to the base.

"Fu Ziran..."

Upon hearing Ye Qiuling's voice, Fu Ziran froze. Feeling guilty, she hesitated to turn around and didn't even notice the weakness in Ye Qiuling's voice. She took a deep breath, prepared herself mentally, closed her eyes, and turned around with a look of grim determination.

Thump—

"Holy crap! You little devil!!!"

She had just opened her eyes when she saw Ye Qiuling standing at her door. She lost her balance and collapsed to the ground with a thud. She quickly knelt down to check on her.

I smelled a faint scent of blood, touched her wet clothes, and felt a light red liquid in my hand.

Her body temperature is still a bit high.

I have a fever, and my wound is infected?

He stood up, ran to the table, grabbed a pair of scissors, and immediately cut open the clothes on her shoulder. Sure enough, the bandage was covered in blood, and the wound had reopened.

Troublesome. Fu Ziran frowned slightly. Even an SSS-level alpha wouldn't be able to heal from a wound caused by a special weapon in a short time. She had rushed out again after being bandaged yesterday without even taking a sip of medicine, showing no concern for the injury. Now look what happened, it had finally torn open. Seeing her disheveled appearance, Fu Ziran sighed and dutifully went to change her bandages. She really had a troublesome person to deal with.

But getting caught in the rain and getting injured shouldn't cause a fever.

She instructed someone to take Ye Qiuling to her studio and give her a full-body scan.

The spiritual body was attacked and damaged?

The person who could injure Ye Qiuling is probably of similar or even stronger spiritual ability than her. This level of injury isn't very serious; it's like a normal person stabbing themselves with a knife. It will heal with some rest, it just takes a little time.

He glanced at Ye Qiuling, thinking, "Now she can stay at the base obediently, right? She really thinks of herself as an indestructible tool, running around aimlessly every day."

After placing the person in the treatment pod, she lay down on the bed next to her and drifted off to sleep. She was exhausted from the day.

When she woke up, she found herself swollen like a steamed bun, her whole body was swollen. She didn't dare to take her medicine, saving it to pretend to be pitiful. As a result, Ye Qiuling ran away and disappeared for a whole day. All that pain was for nothing.
