I could have chosen to continue my life with someone else, but because of her—the Cheshire Cat—Isn't that the reason I was tied down so tightly?
Chu Shangli certainly knew that it was not the Cheshire Cat's fault - it was more like she relied too much on the save and load system, which eventually backfired.
However, Chu Shangli seemed to be more sympathetic to the Cheshire Cat's mother who hated her for being bound than to the completely innocent Cheshire Cat.
"You seem to understand my former master better. She was clearly not a good woman or mother..."
"If you say so—do you think I am a good woman?"
"Who knows—but, if it's what I saw before, it seems to be quite consistent with the general theory, even though he looks like a fool. Yet, he still tries hard to show his foolish kindness..."
"Foolish kindness..." Chu Shangli pulled the corner of his mouth: "It's really a new word."
"Hmm—but I think it's still quite suitable. Although I felt that you might understand her, I didn't expect you to understand her to this extent. I should say that this unexpected surprise has brought an unexpected surprise—"
After a pause, the system asked, "How is it? Do you want to stay longer? Or..."
"I don't know. I think I should think about this problem carefully—" Chu Shangli pressed his hand to his forehead: "What if I stay here for too long and can't get out? If I'm trapped here with you, I'll feel like I'm at a disadvantage for some reason—so I should at least try more possibilities before making a decision."
“…”
There came a laugh beside my ears, as if the conspiracy had succeeded, as if the wish had been fulfilled.
In fact, if you think about it carefully, there is no essential difference between these two feelings. It mainly depends on how you view the system. If you regard the system as an innocent helper, then you probably get what you want.
If we view the system as another way to induce ourselves to achieve our ulterior motives, we can describe it as a conspiracy that succeeded.
What is the difference between the two?
Chu Shangli turned off the system while thinking.
She discovered that the space where time stood still was indeed perfect for thinking.
If I can use this ability properly, it will probably bring me a lot of benefits.
"Sorry, sorry—" Tan Xing clasped his hands together: "My topic is probably very boring, or it should be difficult for Luo Dongxia to understand—so..."
"Not really." Chu Shangli shook his head: "You seem to underestimate me a little bit. What do you think of me? Although I am not a 'vegetarian', I do know a little bit about me. I am more worried that you are afraid of being persecuted by me and dare not tell the truth."
Chu Shangli deliberately used a cold smile.
Tan Xing's heart was pounding and he swallowed.
"Haha, that's true—I don't have any other areas where I can show off my superiority, except when it comes to misery and distortion—so I unconsciously ignore the misery of those around me. I just don't want to admit the fact that I can't win even in such trivial matters."
"You are quite amazing to be able to feel superior even when you are miserable." Chu Shangli laughed lightly.
Tan Xing's eyes turned elsewhere——
It was obvious that he wanted to say something, but in the end he was overwhelmed by reality.
