Chapter 21: Eating melon progress 21%
"She's with me."
Gu Yanzhi comes from the future.
In his previous life, he was with Su Lan.
When he was twenty-six, his liking for her turned into a madly growing love.
On his twenty-seventh birthday, he was about to confess his love to her, but instead he received twenty-seven birthday gifts from her.
On his 28th birthday, he invited everyone on his list of enemies to his private yacht for a birthday party, intending to catch them all in one fell swoop. However, he never expected that he would end up at the bottom of the sea as well...
He died, but before he died, he hadn't found all his enemies, and he even implicated his girlfriend...
That night, he was reborn.
He went back to his twenty-third birthday.
This time, he decided to make a new choice.
Fight alone and never implicate anyone.
He took over the company's business and entered the mixed entertainment industry alone to become a star, just to find the murderer.
In this life, he learned to act.
No matter how shaken he is inside, he can still act like an innocent idol who has never experienced the world.
Just those clear eyes are enough to deceive many people.
Slowly, he deceived himself.
He no longer thought about what to eat or what he wanted each day, nor did he consider his own desires except revenge.
Even his feelings were pushed under the water again and again...
Unfortunately, in this life, he was bound to the intelligence system.
As long as he had a thought, the system would tell him Su Lan's movements.
In this way, if he wants to suppress his longing, he needs willpower far beyond that of an ordinary person.
Human willpower is limited, like a bowl of water, it will eventually run out.
He would try not to think about her or look at her.
In the middle of the night when his willpower was weak, he would toss and turn in bed, unable to fall asleep...
Especially when he knew she was in danger, he couldn't care less about anything else and would definitely rush over to see her first...
The first time I saw her in my life was three years ago.
At that time, she was still a sloth.
She was hanging upside down on a tree branch, sleeping soundly with a smile on her lips, unaware of the harpy eagle in the tree next door drooling over her.
The gray-black hornbill eagle was about the same size as a human. After locking onto its target, it flapped its wings and aimed its sharp claws straight at Su Lan's neck.
At this moment, he loaded the arrow, drew the bow, and shot an arrow through the horn eagle's feathers.
Perhaps the sound of the harpy eagle flapping its wings was too loud, waking up Su Lan who was sleeping in the tree.
Su Lan opened her eyes dazedly.
Gu Yanzhi hid behind a tree and saw her blinking her eyes, her gaze wandering, then slowly closing them and continuing to sleep...
For three whole years, he had been protecting her in the dark.
No matter if he was filming a commercial, a movie, or even on the podium, as long as he knew she was in danger, he would leave immediately to protect her...
It was not until the day before the filming of "Survival on Desert Island" that he knew Su Lan was coming. He postponed the dinner with the president of a high-end luxury brand, changed his flight, and returned from Milan early.
As soon as he landed, he didn't even bother to adjust to the jet lag and ran straight to the island where Su Lan was.
Although he had intelligence and knew that Su Lan was on the island, he did not have the specific location, only the relative direction.
He refreshed the intelligence system over and over again, searched almost the entire island, and finally found Su Lan on a eucalyptus tree.
She fell asleep.
He didn't disturb her, but just stood under the tree, watching her quietly, watching her transform from a sloth into a human...
He leaned forward and tried to cover her lips.
He clenched his fists and held back the last centimeter.
He couldn't make any more mistakes in this life.
He put on her indigo coat and waited quietly until her eyelids fluttered slightly, indicating she was about to wake up. Only then did he leave...
After walking a few steps, he fell into the grass behind the tree.
This is a side effect of his intelligence system.
The farther the information is from, the more difficult it is and the greater the mental drain on him. After frequent use, he will become weak.
In order to find Su Lan this time, he started using the intelligence system since Milan, and refreshed it frequently after returning, so that after he fell to the ground, he did not have the strength to stand up.
He lay alone on the grass, enduring the weakness, fatigue, and excruciating pain in his internal organs...
He was in so much pain and so weak that he was unable to return to the set until the filming of "Cast Away" was over.
After he recovered, he went directly to Beta Island. He recorded the show's post-interviews separately.
Tonight, he also spent a lot of time using the intelligence system, refreshing the information again and again, before he found Su Lan as soon as possible.
Plus, I just went into the water to save her.
He fell into weakness again.
When you are weak, your willpower is also the weakest.
He couldn't help but hug Su Lan in his arms.
He told himself that this was the last time.
He indulged himself and locked her tightly in his arms.
I hope time will go slower, slower...
Then, he felt a warm current rising up in his body.
His weakness eased.
It seemed that being near her would lessen his weakness and pain.
He confirmed with the system that as long as he was close to her, his weakness would be alleviated...
This is a pleasant surprise.
He let himself indulge and continued to hold her.
It wasn't until he heard Su Lan's baby-like cry of "wa wa" that he slowly came back to his senses...
Su Lan began to slap him with her hands, trying to push him away, and was even a little anxious.
[This physical strength replenishes too quickly.]
If you don't let her go, she'll turn back into a human in no time.
【She doesn’t have any clothes yet, how can this be possible? 】
But no one else can hear the sloth's inner voice.
Gu Yanzhi still held her, showing no sign of letting go...
Su Lan had no other choice, so she called out the melon-eating system: "Go to his consciousness space and help me pass on a message, saying that he can't hug me anymore, otherwise he will break a bone."
The small system nodded, and disappeared with a whoosh, going to Gu Yanzhi's consciousness space, and said, "You can't hug me anymore, or I'll break your bones!"
After hearing this, Gu Yanzhi's intelligence system was so frightened that it staggered and hurried over to report the news and repeated it.
In the consciousness space, Gu Yanzhi was in a daze on the top of the mountain. After hearing what the system said, he was a little surprised.
It turns out that Su Lan's personality is like this in private, and she is quite different from the one he interacts with...
Is it because she met him that she became so considerate and gentle?
Gu Yanzhi felt a little secretly happy in his heart, and pressed it down again, saying softly, "Let her go."
After hearing this, his intelligence system felt more confident and put his hands on his hips towards Su Lan's small system at the foot of the mountain.
"Come up if you dare!"
Su Lan's small system returned to Su Lan's consciousness space with a "whoosh" sound, and he was so angry that he said, "That's too much. He actually said, come up and hit me if you dare!"
After hearing this, Su Lan was stunned.
Tonight was the first time she saw the man in front of her, and she didn't even know his name.
She just thought that he immediately jumped into the water to save her and lent her his clothes, and thought he was a warm man.
Why do you talk so meanly?
It seriously doesn't match his appearance...
Su Lan suppressed her surprise and asked in a low voice: "Are you sure this is what he said?"
The small system was stunned for a moment, then continued, "I'm sure, every word is correct..."
Su Lan was helpless, "Then you say, I have something to do, send me back."
As soon as he started rowing, he naturally had no hands to hold her...
The small system then went and said to Gu Yanzhi's intelligence system, "If you don't send us back, do you think I dare to hit you?"
The intelligence system trembled as it returned to Gu Yanzhi's side and whispered, "She said that if I didn't send them back, she would beat me to death... It's so scary..."
Gu Yanzhi: “…”
This is so different from the Su Lan he knows.
He vaguely felt something was wrong...
In the end, Gu Yanzhi let go of her hand, followed her wishes, and sent her back.
The sea breeze smells salty.
Su Lan's head was exposed and felt a little cold.
Gu Yanzhi didn't say anything, lifted his black coat and wrapped her in it.
Su Lan gave him a silly smile.
No matter what, he is my lifesaver.
It's worth her smiling cutely.
The boat swayed as it headed towards Alpha Island, with waves surging beneath it.
Halfway through the walk, I heard the production crew searching for someone by the water.
Director: "Su Lan!"
Photography: "Su Lan, where are you?"
Xia Youran: "Don't be so depressed..."
Su Lan: “…”
She was almost human again.
As a result, everyone was guarding her on the shore.
There is a photographer carrying a camera.
And there are drones flying around...
Isn't this a gift you're sending back?
It is absolutely impossible for her to transform into a human in public...
Su Lan tugged at the man's sleeve and pointed across.
What I mean is, I'm not going back, I'm going over there.
This time the man understood quickly.
Just lift the paddle and paddle in the opposite direction.
Su Lan saw that the program crew was looking for her and Xia Youran was also worried about her. She couldn't bear it and looked back.
But her clothes and cell phone were hidden underwater, and there was no way to notify them now...
At this time, the man opposite took out the program crew's mobile phone and typed a line of words.
[Su Lan is with me, no need to look for her.]
director:!
Assistant Director: !!
The entire program team: !!!
They even clicked on their profile pictures to confirm again...
Su Lan is actually with Gu Yanzhi.
Which one together?
Is this the kind of togetherness they wanted?
How is that possible?
Gu Yanzhi's reputation in the circle is notoriously strange.
Often disappearing inexplicably...
He disappeared during filming, commercials, and even at an awards ceremony, which immediately became a hot topic...
Even so, there are still so many fans who firmly support him and uphold him...
Every time Gu Yanzhi left suddenly, he never gave himself an excuse, but just apologized.
But his fans will come out to help him explain.
He suddenly left the filming because of an allergic reaction to food.
The sudden departure from the commercial shoot was due to patriotism, and everything was a matter of the foreign brand's stance.
Even the reason he left the moving ceremony temporarily was to take care of his sick agent...
But where did Gu Yanzhi really go, and why did he disappear for several days? No one knew...
A weirdo like Gu Yanzhi always keeps to himself and has no one of the opposite sex around him.
All staff are men.
He actually said he was with Su Lan!
It really exploded!
*
On the other side, the wooden boat docked at Beta Island.
It was Su Lan's first time to visit Beta Island. She discovered that it wasn't far from Alpha Island. If she paddled quickly, she could get there in fifteen minutes...
She glanced at the physical strength value in the system space and it was almost full.
As soon as she got ashore, she ran away on her own.
Unfortunately, the sloth ran incredibly slowly. After only a few steps, the man grabbed its waist and took it with him.
Su Lan kept screaming "Wow wow".
Put me down.
[Ding, stamina is being rapidly recharged...]
Su Lan: ...
Please, don’t recharge anymore, my energy is about to burst.
Help! She's finished...
She called the system to pass the message to the other party.
The small system received the news, but before it could go over, it heard an earthquake in the consciousness space.
It turned out that Gu Yanzhi threw Su Lan to the ground with a "bang"...
The author has something to say:
Happy eating, bowing for the 21st time, and adding a timeline:
Su Lan: In 2020, she was pushed off a boat and died. She turned into a sloth for three years and turned back into a human in 2023 (Chapter 1). She hasn't started a relationship with the male protagonist yet, so she doesn't know what the future holds...
Gu Yanzhi:
In the first life, in 2023 (age 26), he pursued Su Lan. They were together in 2024 (age 27). He knew Su Lan's secret (turning into a sloth and having an outward-thinking heart), and he enjoyed this new way of dating... In 2025 (age 28), he died after taking revenge at his birthday party...
In the second life, he returned to 2020 (23 years old), secretly guarded for 3 years, and reunited with Su Lan in "Survival on Deserted Island" in 2023. He was pretending not to know her, was emotionally unstable, and was going crazy because he couldn't get the love he wanted.
