Xia Che had a vague feeling that his task was not as simple as it seemed on the surface.
He had a nightmare a while ago, and Xia Che was still shaken and couldn't recover for a long time after waking up the next day.
In his dream, Xia Che had already completed two tasks from the system. He thought it was the end, but it was actually the beginning...
The system issued a third task.
Let him marry all the female leads!
And then continue to stay in the world of comics...
lifetime.
emmm...
Well, how should I put it?
This nightmare really hit Xia Che hard. It wasn't that the dream was particularly terrifying or that Xia Che was particularly unwilling to have it. In fact, there were quite a few perks in the dream, such as some things that couldn't be shown on screen, and the female leads taking the initiative...
Xia Che seemed to be enjoying it.
The reason he was so devastated was that he instantly realized in his dream that the system probably never intended for him to return to the real world in the first place.
This is what Xia Che is truly afraid of.
If there was no hope of going back in the first place, he would have accepted it long ago.
What people fear most is having hope, only to find, after all their efforts, that the hope was false.
What's even more damning is that lousy system. It only said one sentence and issued a task when I first transmigrated into it, and then it was like it was dead, never to be heard again.
Xia Che had thought about it before. He had read those online novels and comics with systems. When a soul transmigrates to another world, there must be a system pushing it behind the scenes.
Without exception, all these works allow users to communicate with their system. Even if the system isn't very human-like, at least it will respond when the host calls upon it.
When will it be my turn?
Forget about getting any benefits from the system, Xia Che didn't even get a chance to ask the other party to come out and say a word!
This hands-off approach, as if the system never cared whether he lived or died, or whether he could complete the mission, was the root cause of why Xia Che felt this dream was a nightmare.
Xia Che lay on the sofa, his head resting on his arm. Although his mind was full of thoughts, not much time had passed.
"Really...?"
Upon hearing this, Chu Yuying saw that Xia Che insisted and didn't dare to persuade him any further. She muttered something under her breath, her expression still somewhat suspicious.
Honestly...
I'm not preventing him from sleeping in the bed, why are you making such a fuss?
She still couldn't get over it.
"Hey! This is your last chance. If you want to sleep in the bed, I can pretend I don't know."
With a straw in her mouth and a yogurt in her hand, Chu Yuying asked, feigning nonchalance but clearly showing her concern.
The only response she received was Xia Che's hand, which reached out from under the covers, waving in the air before being pulled back in.
"You damn blondie, you're impotent!"
Chu Yuying was furious. She had already hinted at it... no, she had made it explicit!
It's been so clearly stated, don't you understand?
Dog brain?
Chu Yuying was so angry she almost cried out, but the thought that had just crossed her mind made her regret it.
Xia Che had better not realize his own hint; he had better be stupid!
Please, please don't say it's impotence...
I've heard that this thing is terrifyingly damaging to relationships between couples.
"I've given you so many chances, and you still can't seize them, you damn blondie, you blind bear!"
Chu Yuying angrily finished her yogurt, turned off the light, threw it in the trash can, rolled over into bed, wrapped herself in the blanket, and still felt a tightness in her chest.
I was extremely angry.
"Women's minds are so strange..."
Listening to Chu Yuying tossing and turning on the bed, making noises on purpose, and grumbling indignantly, Xia Che felt confused and couldn't understand what Chu Yuying was angry about.
Forget it, he won't dwell on things he can't figure out.
After reviewing the plan in his mind again, Xia Che decided to go to sleep.
"Old dog..."
Xia Che stared silently at the ceiling, where slivers of light filtered through the curtains, casting dappled patterns on the surface. A hint of coldness flickered in his dark eyes.
Xia Che was determined not to let this kind of scum get away with it.
Xia Che will not show mercy to those who profit by deceiving others' attachment to their loved ones. This time, it has nothing to do with the female leads; it is his own decision to do it, not for anyone else, but only for the pain in Xia Che's heart.
The pain of losing a loved one.
Letting out a deep breath, Xia Che slowly closed his eyes. He was already tired, and he would probably fall asleep soon.
"Hey, you little blondie."
Suddenly, Chu Yuying's clear voice woke Xia Che, who was about to drift off to sleep.
"what?"
Xia Che replied irritably.
Damn it, I'll fall asleep in a little while.
He felt that another two or three minutes would be enough.
Xia Che was really sleepy after a long day.
Why are you sounding so impatient?
Chu Yuying was still angry, and when she heard Xia Che's impatient voice, her eyebrows immediately rose.
Did I come to your room late at night just to see you sleeping on the sofa?
It's clearly your problem, yet you're acting all high and mighty?
"Big sister, I was almost asleep when you suddenly woke me up. Can't I even be a little irritable?"
Xia Che sighed, his head aching terribly.
If there are similar situations in the future where we need to discuss things, Xia Che vowed that he would choose a different time and never pick the late night again.
Even if there's really no other choice, it has to be in the living room!
This is so annoying!
"Oh...so you mean it's my fault for disturbing your sleep?"
Chu Yuying responded absentmindedly, then turned her back to Xia Che. Where Xia Che couldn't see, Chu Yuying's expression was somewhat forlorn.
"No, I was just startled and didn't control my tone."
Xia Che thought for a moment. Chu Yuying hadn't done anything wrong. She was probably a little nervous because it was her first time sleeping in the same room with a man. He realized he shouldn't have been so harsh with her. So he said calmly, "I was wrong just now. I'm sorry."
"So you called me... is there something you need?"
Xia Che asked.
"Huh? The dignified leader of Weiyang is actually apologizing to a lowly commoner like me? What an honor!"
Chu Yuying's words were always sarcastic and sarcastic, which was already a natural instinct for this little devil. Xia Che didn't find it strange and just smiled helplessly.
"Actually, it's nothing... It just feels like this scene reminds me of the night you celebrated my birthday with me. It was also late at night then, but according to the time, we're still outside right now, and we even witnessed the candy rain. Most people might not even see that once in their lifetime, and we actually witnessed it all from the Ferris wheel. Aren't we so lucky?"
Chu Yuying turned to the side, looking at the dappled light and shadow appearing on the dark ceiling, and murmured.
