And I, having survived for millions of years, am a solitary, unremarkable red spider lily NPC.

Day after day, as a cheat code, helping each protagonist complete their life's journey—I've had enough of that kind of life.

Being able to experience my own life on this page that I created is actually quite nice.

Whether it exists forever or not, she doesn't care. Her only biggest regret now is probably that she didn't write this page as a cultivation story back then.

In that case, perhaps Father and my brothers could live on this page forever.

"077, what are you thinking about now? Do you remember what you just promised me? Complete the mission properly!"

Seeing Helian Si lost in his own world again, Fo Lian was filled with disappointment and frustration. A golden lotus flower shone brightly in front of Helian Si and roared back and forth.

"Got it, I'll complete the mission well. Alright, it's getting late, turn off your phone, I'm going to sleep too."

After saying that, Helian Si yawned, pulled the blanket over himself, turned over and closed his eyes.

Fo Lian was furious. Whose life was this anyway? It was like the emperor wasn't worried, but the eunuch was. Ugh, what eunuch? She was going to be a popular lotus flower who would marry and have children in the future!

Unfortunately, seeing Helian Si's retreating figure, Folian had no choice but to compromise in the end.

"Alright, I'll believe you for now."

After saying that, Folian also turned off the phone with a "click".

Helian Si opened his eyes, looked at the spot where Fo Lian had just been floating, and smiled. What a sentimental fellow.

only……

"This time, I'm afraid I can only disappoint you, you bastard. Thank you."

Thank you for caring about me and for being reluctant to let me go. But how painful it would be for someone to live alone with beautiful memories, while all the people in those memories have passed away.

The next day.

The Imperial Academy, nestled along the lakeside where willows sway gently in the breeze, their branches brushing the water.

A man in a long, silver-white robe, like an immortal descending to earth, and a graceful woman in a pink gauze dress stood together under a willow tree.

Not far from the two, under the bushes, hid two figures, a man and a woman. The woman's eyes were shining as she watched the two under the willow tree.

"Your Highness, this is the teacher's private matter. Is it... not appropriate for us to eavesdrop like this?"

The man speaking was Gu Haozhi, the son of the Minister of War. He was handsome and one of Helian Si's many suitors.

"Shh, we're just listening in for a little while. Besides, we were here first, so it doesn't count as eavesdropping, understand?"

Helian Si turned her face, made a shushing gesture with her slender hand, and winked at Gu Haozhi with her beautiful peach blossom eyes, looking extremely playful.

"Thump thump thump—"

With the person he liked so close to him, smiling playfully at him, Gu Haozhi felt his heart beating even faster.

He nodded firmly to Helian Si. The Third Prince wasn't here today, so he had finally gotten a chance to get close to the Princess.

We must not upset Her Highness over such a trivial matter. Any problems can be dealt with later.

Helian Si smiled, her beautiful peach blossom eyes crinkling, and patted Gu Haozhi's shoulder with satisfaction. "That's more like it! How can you not read gossip that's been handed to you?"

The two turned their heads and looked at the two people under the willow tree through the gaps in the lush leaves, their ears perked up.

“Brother Jinghua, Zijing likes you. I’ve liked you since I was thirteen, and my feelings for you have never changed. Brother Jinghua, don’t you understand my heart?”

Helian Si: "!" Wow, this is a huge bombshell!
