Chapter 188 I Didn’t Meet You
The girl's voice echoed in my ears.
Pei Yanchuan was not surprised at all, because he knew Cici would definitely be able to sense it.
He slowly hooked the girl's fingers together, his eyes lowered: "Ci Ci, after you told me those things, I had a dream that night."
Yang Cici looked up at him and asked, "Did you dream about the first time we were together?"
The man shook his head, lowered his head and rubbed the girl's face, and whispered: "Ci Ci, I didn't meet you in that dream, and... there was no Li Xuanmeng."
The unexpected answer left Yang Cici stunned.
But then she realized something, clutched the fabric beneath her, her eyes flickered, and she slowly pursed her lips.
The man's voice was hoarse, just like the night outside the window, vague and uncertain.
"In my dreams, I can't count how many times I've returned to China, but every time I return, I meet some strange people who look a lot like Li Xuanmeng."
Their origins were unknown, and each of them approached him and tried to please him with obvious motives.
Some people even used special methods on him.
Pei Yanchuan hated this kind of approach with a purpose, just like his father, who was nice to him only for other reasons.
In fact, if there were no mission, they would not pay attention to him at all, let alone be so nice to him.
He doesn't want to be a tool for others to achieve their goals.
He didn't like them, he even hated those people.
He didn't understand why, why he had to endure all this, why fate chose him.
He just gave a cold warning at first, but no one cared. So, Pei Yanchuan killed everyone who approached him.
He knew that these people had unknown origins and killing them would not have any impact, not to mention that he himself had no plans to live any longer.
After he has taken revenge on those people, he will commit suicide.
Anyway, he has no desire for this world anymore.
When saying these words, Pei Yanchuan's tone and eyes were unusually calm, as if he was narrating an insignificant matter.
His life and his memories can be reset at will.
What he spent his life doing meant nothing to them, it was just a measure of the progress of the mission.
Yang Cici's eyes were red and her clenched fists were shaking slightly.
The man's warm hand slowly wrapped around her hand.
He bent down and kissed the back of her hand, his eyes curved as he chuckled softly, "Ci Ci, you are the only exception. The first time we were together was actually the first time you appeared."
In so many dreams, the repetitive lives have made Pei Yanchuan unable to tell how many lives he has experienced.
Until that life comes.
His life, which was like a stagnant pool, had a new character.
He gently wiped away the tears from the corners of the girl's eyes with his fingertips and kissed those beautiful eyes.
"Ci Ci, don't you want to know how I fell in love with you in my first life? Actually, I saw your photo on Yu Si's phone."
It was the same scene at that time. Yu Si went out to answer a call. The screen was not locked and the girl's photo popped up instantly.
Pei Yanchuan noticed it out of the corner of his eye. It was just a casual glance at first, but he himself didn't expect that he couldn't take his eyes off it anymore.
Yang Cici wiped her tears, her eyes red as a little rabbit, and said in a muffled voice: "Really? How did you know me just by looking at me?"
"Really." Pei Yanchuan smiled and lowered his head to rub her face, "Because I asked Yu Si."
That day, after Da Yusi came back, he sat on the sofa, raised his chin, and casually reminded him, "Your phone screen is not turned off. Someone sent you a message."
Yu Si subconsciously opened it and took a look.
Taking advantage of this gap, Pei Yanchuan glanced at the photo again.
His gaze lingered for several seconds, then he lowered his eyes and twirled his fingertips.
"Is this your sister?"
How could Yu Si have imagined that someone would fall in love with her at first sight? Upon hearing this, he replied, "No, this is my sister's classmate."
Pei Yanchuan nodded without saying anything, his fingertips tapping the armrest from time to time, his eyes thoughtful.
Not long after, Yang Cici's personal information and photos appeared on the man's desk.
This was the first time in all his life that Pei Yanchuan returned to his country for a different purpose.
It was also the first time that changes occurred in his life.
But how could he know at that time that all this would only be temporary.
Pei Yanchuan buried his face in the girl's neck and slowly closed his eyes.
"Ci Ci, in my second life, I knew Li Xuanmeng was at home. Is this the gift you left for me? I like it very much."
If these attackers turned into Ci Ci, he would have no complaints, because his lover was different from those people.
"So, is it okay to just keep it this way? Cici, once we return home, you'll have to complete the same missions as those raiders. That's too tiring. Can we just not do anything?"
He can choose not to do those things, he doesn't want anything, he can let go of all the hatred.
Just like this, they stayed abroad with Cici for the rest of their lives, with no other conquerors and no one else disturbing them.
Yang Cici hugged the man's neck, her eyes trembling slightly, and her breathing trembling uncontrollably.
"Pei Yanchuan... let me ask you a question." Her voice was very soft, "Except for this life, why was your condition so serious that you needed to go abroad in other periods?"
The man was slightly stunned, and the strength he held on her tightened instantly, but his eyes were a little dazed.
"because……"
Because...what?
He doesn't remember.
He lowered his head in a daze and murmured, "Ci Ci... I took too many medicines, and I can't remember much of what happened before."
Yang Cici's eyes were sore, and she hugged the man's neck and sobbed, her voice trembling, "No, Pei Yanchuan, it's not that you can't remember, it's me, it's me who made you go abroad."
What she dreamed about that night was not a dream at all, but her lost memories.
No matter which life he lived in, Pei Yanchuan would never make friends with other people during high school. He would never be hurt by his friends. She was the only friend he had.
She is the tool used by this world to repeatedly hurt Pei Yanchuan.
The world allowed her to provoke Pei Yanchuan and then erased all traces of her. After all, she was just a cannon fodder and was not important at all.
As for Pei Yanchuan, all he had to do was erase his memory under the pretext of medication.
Until the world realized that it could no longer control Pei Yanchuan, it found her again and tried to use her identity as his ex-girlfriend to temporarily calm Pei Yanchuan's emotions.
No wonder the system deleted her storyline in the first place, because her storyline didn't exist in the first place and was added temporarily.
Even though she guessed this result, Yang Cici still couldn't accept it.
Pei Yanchuan was also stunned when he heard this.
The cold tear marks on her shoulder made his heart shrink. He raised his hand and slowly stroked the girl's hair. He lowered his head and kissed the top of her head, whispering to her in comfort: "It's okay... Cici... It's okay. It's okay if it's you..."
Yang Cici hugged his neck tightly, slowly raised her head, and stared at him with red eyes.
"Pei Yanchuan, we can stay here, but we must go back in the end."
They want to return to normal life.
No one else knew what happened that night except the two of them.
But as time passed, the system felt miserable watching the progress bar that hadn't moved.
[Host! What should I do if the plot isn't moving?! And my yandere level isn't going down either! I can't complete this mission!]
Yang Cici calmly comforted it: "Everything will work out in the end, don't worry."
"Really? Host, why did you resign? Are you no longer close to the hero? And you're easily irritating him by doing this."
This is called playing hard to get.
Hearing Yang Cici's confident tone, the small system felt a little strange, but still believed her.
Until he saw the girl being knocked unconscious and taken to the manor.
system:【……】
Is this really okay?
Seeing the girl lying on the bed playing with her cell phone and not doing anything, it couldn't help but make a sound after a few days.
[Host, Pei Yanchuan created a scene outside where you pretended to be dead in a car accident. Now Yu Si doesn't even know you're locked up here. Don't you want to do something?]
"What are you doing?" Yang Cici put down her phone and closed her eyes. "I'm doing it. I've been with Pei Yanchuan the whole time, and his yandere value hasn't increased."
The system choked.
【But the male protagonist really doesn’t plan to go abroad. 】
"That means I succeeded and even surpassed the ex-girlfriend plot."
【What about your other side quests? 】
"Just leave it there."
[…Don’t you want to complete the mission? ]
Hearing this, Yang Cici slowly opened her eyes: "What mission?"
[A quest to capture Pei Yanchuan.]
“Isn’t that what I’m doing?”
【……】
┭┮﹏┭┮Wuwuwu, we’re back again.
Noticing the system's silence, Yang Cici sat up from the bed.
In fact, she didn't intend to target this small system.
Although this system is indeed not very reliable, it initially allowed her to return to Pei Yanchuan's childhood, and it seemed that this system actually knew nothing about her.
"system."
【Host, I am here. 】
"Can I talk to your main system?"
【……】
The system was silent for a moment, then asked weakly: [Why? What do you want to talk about?]
"Talk about something that can speed up the progress of our mission."
Upon hearing this, the system did not respond, as if it was considering it.
After a moment, he said, "I can help you apply, but the main system may not approve it."
"good."
After the system left, the door opened and a man in a suit walked in. He bent down and kissed the corner of the girl's mouth, "Have you made up your mind?"
Yang Cici blinked and whispered, "If they don't agree, then let's wait until they agree."
Pei Yanchuan chuckled and picked him up, "It's all up to you."
Yang Cici put her arms around his neck and bit his chin. "No matter what, I won't chase anyone. You have to chase me."
"Okay." The man lowered his head and kissed her face, whispering, "If you catch her, can we get married? Cici."
Yang Cici looked at him eagerly, then smiled and kissed him on the lips.
"Sure, boyfriend."
-
The system quickly responded.
[Host, the main system says yes.]
Yang Cici was not surprised by this result. The main system had done so many things to her, and she had transformed from a cannon fodder into a conqueror.
In fact, she didn't need to say anything, the main system would soon notice something was wrong and come to find her.
She asked the system: [When can we chat?]
As soon as he finished speaking, an even colder and more formulaic mechanical voice sounded.
Right now.
This is a completely different meaning from the system. Just by hearing it, one can feel the indifference of officialdom.
She paused, then smiled and said, "So you are the main system?"
[Yang Cici, you are deliberately delaying the progress of the mission.]
The main system is worthy of being the main system, it saw the clues at a glance.
Yang Cici did not refute, but asked: "Am I violating the rules by doing this?"
【……】
In fact, it does not violate the regulations, because there are only two possible results of the task.
One success and one failure.
No one has ever deliberately delayed the progress of a task like Yang Cici.
"Why? It won't do any good for you if you keep delaying it."
"Then what good will it be if I complete it?" Yang Cici said calmly, "Can you let Pei Yanchuan and I be together peacefully?"
If they could stay together peacefully, the main system would not have proposed the option of starting over, and would even deliberately erase Pei Yanchuan's memory.
Because it knew that once bound, Yang Cici's mission would be completed directly in the second life.
She slowly raised her eyes, "Maybe after I complete the mission, you can continue to erase my memory, while Pei Yanchuan's condition is not so serious, and then send other people to attack him again."
It was they who stimulated Pei Yanchuan's illness.
They were the ones who failed to complete the task and wanted Pei Yanchuan's condition to improve.
Upon hearing this, the main system was silent for a while. The cold mechanical voice made it impossible to tell the tone, but it was extremely certain.
[…You’ve recovered your memory.]
"Yes." Yang Cici did not hide it, "Pei Yanchuan has also recovered his memory."
"So you're going to erase our memories and start over again?"
The main system didn't respond, but instead said, "As expected, erasing memories too many times can cause trouble."
This is a disguised admission.
Yang Cici twitched her lips. "Is this interesting? Your goal is to provoke Pei Yanchuan, and then ask me to calm him down?"
The main system fell silent.
[This is his fate, Yang Cici. Your mission is to provoke Pei Yanchuan and make him hate you.]
But who would have thought that Yang Cici was also a person with a mental disorder.
What was originally planned as a fake friendship has now turned into a matchmaking session between two abnormal people.
In order to maintain the normal plot, this cannon fodder cannot be kept.
But Pei Yanchuan was also stubborn, and so many attackers had ended up in failure.
[Yang Cici, if I had detected from the beginning that you could hear the system's thoughts, I wouldn't have kept you.]
As soon as the cold words came out, the cruel true face of the main system was instantly revealed.
[Only the conqueror can complete the strategy. As cannon fodder, you should return to your place. The hero's life is different from yours.]
Yang Cici was not afraid, but smiled and said, "Okay, you reclaim my system, continue to erase the memories of Pei Yanchuan and me, and then send other attackers."
"System, do you want to try? Let's see whether the probability of you succeeding as the capturer is higher, or whether the probability of me and Pei Yanchuan being together and recovering our memories is higher."
[You don't have to threaten me. I have plenty of ways to prevent you two from meeting.]
Yang Cici nodded: "Okay, then come on. I won't be sad about this kind of thing even though I have no memories. Only you are silently worrying about the unfinished tasks and even resorting to using me."
[…You should thank me. Without me, you would never have met Pei Yanchuan.]
"Thank you."
【……】
Feeling the silence of the system, Yang Cici knew it was almost time. She lowered her head, took a deep breath, and softened her tone.
"Master System, can't you let Pei Yanchuan go? Why must he be chosen as the male protagonist? If you let him go, he will also let your attacker go. Isn't that good?"
Let go?
The main system let out a very discordant cold laugh and changed the subject.
"Of course, Yang Cici, aren't you sure he likes you? But if he hadn't met you in high school and his condition had returned to normal, do you think he would still like you?"
[Without the protagonist's unique experience, Pei Yanchuan will return to being a normal man. Isn't that why you liked him in the first place? Once he returns to normal and becomes an ordinary man, he will make friends and have his own social circle. At that time, will you still believe in his love?]
In an instant, Yang Cici was stunned.
