Chapter 75: One-third of the Emotional Module is Deactivated

Go back? Qi Shaoyou's heart suddenly ached, and she couldn't quite control her expression.

Seeing the hesitant expression on her face, Liang Man tightened her grip on Qi Shaoyou's hand.

"Isn't it good? Isn't it good to go back with Sister Manman?" Liang Man tried to bring the two of them closer together.

Qi Shaoyou pursed his lips and leaned towards the wall.

"You can't do this; being photographed like this will hurt you a lot."

Liang Man originally wanted to persuade Qi Shao to let Fang Yuan take care of everything, but she swallowed the words back.

"It's okay, as long as we get home."

Ever since Qi Shaoyou left, Liang Man has always felt that the house is empty, and her heart is empty too.

She's won countless awards, walked the red carpet countless times, and is utterly tired of the applause...

For a long time, she didn't know what to do next.

Fang Yuan repeatedly mentioned that when Qi Shaoyou was around, her own difference made Liang Man a little suspicious.

Did she really live such a real life? Was she ever that happy?

However, these were not the real reasons why Liang Man dropped everything to find Qi Shaoyou.

The real reason that made Liang Man unable to not come was that she was suffering every single moment she couldn't see Qi Shaoyou.

She also found the reason absurd and strange. However, the pain etched into her heart was real.

She had no choice, no options. As she succumbed to the pain in her heart, she realized she couldn't find Qi Shaoyou.

In that instant, a tremendous panic swept over Liang Man. Before she could feel love and happiness, pain and fear overwhelmed her heart.

Qi Shaoyou was unaware of these things; she only heard the word "home" and couldn't help but recall what had happened in another world.

There is a place in that world that I remember very clearly. Once, my master and I were seriously injured while fighting against a demon. The two of us hid in a dilapidated thatched hut.

With an uncertain future and a dilapidated thatched hut, Qi Shaoyou had not yet regained her memory and thought she was going to die.

She was so frightened that she kept hiding in her master's arms, tears streaming down her face.

"Master, I want to go home..."

"Can we go home...?" The young Qi Shaoyou kept burrowing into Liang Man's arms, their once white clothes now covered in blood.

"Don't worry, we'll be home soon."

"At home, it is Shaoyou and his teacher; here, it is also Shaoyou and his teacher. It doesn't matter where we are."

"As long as we are the same, this place can be our home too, right?"

"Shaoyou, we're home now."

Despite the excruciating pain, Master still reached out and gently stroked Qi Shaoyou's head, softly comforting him.

The heart, filled with fear and unease, calmed down thanks to Master's comforting words. The originally cold night gradually warmed up because of Master's repeated assurances that everything was alright.

After that, in Qi Shaoyou's heart, home would no longer be a place to live, but a place for two people.

"Bang bang."

"Bang bang."

"Bang bang."

Qi Shaoyou listened to her own unusual heartbeat and felt something loosening.

No! You can't! Qi Shaoyou tried hard not to look at the other person's face, but he couldn't help but think of Sister Manman's appearance.

Her long hair, usually flowing, was now styled into an updo, adorned with scattered flower petals and pearls. Manman's look today resembled that of a flower fairy descended to earth, but to Qi Shaoyou, it was more like that of his master from another world.

In the dreamlike realm, she once made a flower wreath for her master. At that moment, her master seemed like a celestial maiden descending to earth, and Qi Shaoyou's heart pounded even harder once more.

Oh no, Qi Shaoyou felt he was about to lose control of his emotions.

If she can't suppress it, will she also be unable to suppress the deletion of Sister Manman's memories?

Thinking of this possibility, Qi Shaoyou made up his mind.

"I won't go back. Sister Manman, you probably haven't met someone like me. Vain and materialistic..."

Qi Shaoyou wanted to fabricate more charges against himself, but before he could finish speaking, Liang Man covered his mouth.

"You can't talk about yourself like that, Qi Shaoyou!" Hearing this, Liang Man felt not disgust but anger.

"No one in this world can belittle you like that! Not even yourself."

Liang Man's tone turned fierce, and Qi Shaoyou's heartbeat grew louder. His heart was pounding; Qi Shaoyou knew all too well that she was falling for him.

After mentally preparing himself, Qi Shaoyou took out his phone with his other hand.

Qi Shaoyou took a picture of the two of them, despite Liang Man's puzzled look.

Then Qi Shaoyou removed Liang Man's hand and said to Liang Man while holding up the photo.

“Give me the money, or I’ll sell this photo to paparazzi. I don’t think I’m belittling myself; this is just who I am.”

"I'm just stating the facts. I may be awful, but I can take responsibility for the terrible things I've done."

"How much do you really know about me? Liang Man, we haven't known each other for very long, and my mother has never mentioned you to me."

"You don't understand me, you could even say you don't know me at all."

Disappointment, there was definitely disappointment in her eyes...

Qi Shaoyou's heart ached; she desperately needed to get out of there as soon as possible. Her emotions began to fluctuate; if this continued, her emotional module would definitely activate.

The heartbeat was no longer accompanied by a loud sound; it had begun to carry pain.

"Okay, I'll give it to you." Qi Shaoyou was stunned as soon as Liang Man's voice came out.

Her eyes were filled with disbelief; she didn't think she was important enough for Sister Manman to abandon her principles.

"You say you're vain, right?"

"You said you're materialistic, is that right?"

Liang Man pulled him directly into her arms, holding Qi Shaoyou's hand tightly.

"I'm all the trending topics today, you should stay by my side!"

"Satisfying your vanity and your materialism is no problem. As long as you stay by my side!"

Liang Man conceded defeat, admitting that she had lost to Qi Shaoyou. However, she really didn't want to hear Qi Shaoyou say those things about her anymore.

"I don't care if your mother has mentioned me or why you're staying by my side. Since I have everything you want, you should stay by my side."

"Isn't this the choice that best serves your interests?"

Qi Shaoyou's heart was racing; she could no longer avoid Sister Manman's eyes.

How should I describe these eyes? They are as vast as the deep sea.

Qi Shaoyou suddenly remembered a time when she and her master were walking on the beach.

On the beach late at night, accompanied by the starlight, a gentle sea breeze occasionally drifted by. At that time, her master held her hand and said, "Come home with me. Since you have entered the demonic path, let's find a place in the human world to hide and live."

The master, who always took the well-being of all people as his responsibility, had his first and only selfish thought for the sake of his disciple.

How could he not be moved? He couldn't control his feelings then, and he still can't at this moment.

Her originally white hair suddenly turned black by about a third.

Qi Shaoyou felt a sudden pang of pain in her heart. She looked at her long hair and tears fell without warning.

"No, you can't do this!"

"I can't love you..."

"No, no, change back, change back! I didn't love you!" Qi Shaoyou saw panic on Liang Man's face, and her eyes were filled with uncontrollable grief as she looked at Sister Manman.

"No... I don't want to die with love in my heart..."

Qi Shaoyou seemed to be struggling to breathe, and Liang Man felt a pang of heartache from the moment she started crying.

"You...you love me..."

The first time Liang Man said this, there was no doubt in her tone. When she spoke, it was as if she felt she was saying a truth as profound as the rising and setting of the sun and moon.

Qi Shaoyou shook her head as tears streamed down her face, then she thought of something even more terrifying.

If that's the case, is there a problem with the deletion of Sister Manman's memories?

So, will we get married?

An unexpected question made Liang Man release Qi Shaoyou's hand.

"Do you want to get married? Can you give me some time to sort things out?" Liang Man was somewhat at a loss about what to do with all this.

She didn't refuse, she just said she wanted to get her hair done...

Thankfully, Sister Manman's memory hasn't returned yet. A stroke of luck amidst misfortune, Qi Shaoyou suppressed the surging love in his heart.

How annoying! It's easier and more effortless for love to hurt someone than for hate.

"No, I have no intention of getting married."

"I'm too young, I act on impulse." Qi Shaoyou wiped away his tears fiercely.

"I just want to go out and have fun. Here's my plane ticket."

Qi Shaoyou showed Liang Man his plane ticket, pretending to be relaxed.

"Sister Manman, don't worry about me. I'll come back as soon as I've had my fun."

Qi Shaoyou said with a smile, but his eyes were full of sadness.

Hearing this made Liang Man feel even worse than when she heard Qi Shaoyou belittle herself. She hugged Qi Shaoyou and gently patted her back.

"Can't you wait for Sister Manman? Can't Sister Manman go with you?"

The gentle voice almost made Qi Shaoyou, who had managed to suppress his tears, burst forth.

She tried to suppress the sadness in her throat and pretended to be happy, saying, "Actually, when I said those things before, I just felt that you were too controlling of me, Sister Manman."

"If I'm a little bad, you won't care about me anymore."

"I've already made plans with my friends, so I can't skip it."

"Maybe next time..."

"Maybe next time..."

Qi Shaoyou felt waves of heartache. She knew there would be no next time and no future, but she still had to make one up.

Thankfully, thankfully, Sister Manman doesn't love her yet. Right now, she's just a strange child, and Sister Manman won't wait for her for the rest of her life.

How annoying, the restrictions on the emotion module had to be loosened at this crucial moment.

Qi Shaoyou felt like she was dying from the pain; her love had turned into blades, ravaging her. She smelled the faint scent of jasmine, her heart breaking.

"Okay, then next time. I'll definitely go with you, okay?"

"I won't be so strict with you anymore."

"Share anything fun with Sister Manman!"

Liang Man held the girl in her arms, and tears suddenly streamed down her face. She didn't understand, but she was truly heartbroken.

Because they were so close, she could smell Qi Shaoyou's pheromones. The usually faint scent of alcohol had now turned bitter.

Just by smelling it, Liang Man could tell how unhappy Qi Shaoyou was.

After embracing for a while, Qi Shaoyou slowly released Liang Man. Heaven knows how reluctant she was to let go of her lover, but she had to.

Not only does she have to release her, she also has to leave this place as soon as possible.

Just as Qi Shaoyou was about to say that he needed to board the plane, Fang Yuan walked in.

"The last flight was cancelled. Shaoyou, was that your flight? It seems there was a malfunction. Here's the QR code for a refund, I took a picture of it for you."

Fang Yuan was wearing a brown suit and sunglasses, which was different from her usual appearance.

"Sleeping at the airport isn't a good idea either. I found a five-star hotel next door that has rooms available, so I'll try to find a different place to sleep."

Fang Yuan didn't care whether the plane had stopped or not; every single word above was a lie she had told Qi Shaoyou.

She had just received a call from Chen Ping, who wanted to help her trick Qi Shaoyou into staying here.

After thinking for three seconds, Fang Yuan decisively joined the camp.

"It's okay, I can take the high-speed rail." Qi Shaoyou took a deep breath and looked up at his phone.

Chenping didn't even send him a message? Qi Shaoyou scanned Fang Yuan's QR code, and the next second his plane ticket money was refunded.

"I saw that flight is to Yunnan, and there are no high-speed rail tickets left at this time." Chen Ping showed Qi Shaoyou the interface of the ticketing software.

"How about we rest for a night before we go out to play?" Liang Man took a tissue to wipe Qi Shaoyou's tears, and then took a new tissue to wipe her own tears.

"Please don't be in such a hurry to leave, okay?"

"How about we chat for another night with Sister Manman?"

Liang Man's voice was soft, and Qi Shaoyou knew that leaving now was the best option.

But love softened her heart, and she couldn't leave. Her heart didn't want to leave Sister Manman, her master.

"Okay, but I have to leave tomorrow morning." Qi Shaoyou looked at Liang Man's face with lingering affection and couldn't help but stop in his tracks.

Congratulations, Ms. Qi, your trip is ruined again! [Okay]
