Lan Qingyue waited in front of the railing for five minutes, her heart pounding, but the system still wouldn't budge. It kept saying the same thing: "The task is already bound and cannot be unbound."
Okay, she lost, she compromised, and she still cried out to the heavens, "This is too hard for me."
In the novels she read, the systems were always the kind that were abused to the point of liver pain by their masters. How come her system is such a domineering and infuriating one? It's too difficult, too difficult.
If I had known, I wouldn't have written Chu Chu as so infuriating.
Now that things have come to this, she can't go back. But there's one thing she's very curious about: why was she chosen by the system?
"Hey, why did you choose me? There are so many people in this world, why did you have to pick me, this laid-back homebody? Do you know that what you're doing is really unfair?"
"My lady, because Chu Chu's ending was too tragic, her resentment has been growing and cannot be dispelled for a long time. Her resentment has activated the system of this virtual world, which is me. When I was activated, the resentment bound you and me together. The one who tied the knot must untie it. Only when you eliminate Chu Chu's resentment will the relationship between you and me automatically break down, and only then will you have a chance to return to the real world."
"Is it that complicated?" Lan Qingyue clicked her tongue in amazement. She was just a Buddhist-like, inconspicuous nobody who wrote novels because she loved them. And what novel wouldn't have one or two villainous female supporting characters?
The character "Chu Chu" was meant to be a contrast. The name "Chu Chu" easily evokes the image of someone "pitiful and helpless." The idea is that beneath this pitiful exterior lies a wicked nature, creating a huge contrast. This is exactly the effect Lan Qing wanted. Who knew that it would cause Chu Chu to harbor so much resentment, making Lan Qing, the humble author, end up shooting himself in the foot? It really hurts.
"My lady, your main task is to eliminate Chu Chu's resentment, bring her back to the right path, and make her an upright person. At the same time, you will also have corresponding tasks."
The system's clear and organized task arrangement seems to be the most frequently mentioned aspect of this system.
When Lan Qingyue heard the system casually announce the mission, he thought, "I might as well jump off here." Immediately, everything went black, his body leaned back, and he landed on his back with a "fu" as he accidentally "jumped off the building."
The expected agonizing pain didn't come; instead, she felt an unprecedented sense of euphoria. Could this be what it felt like to float into heaven? It didn't seem so bad, but she felt guilty towards her parents. "Your daughter is unfilial! I'll be filial to you in the next life!"
"My lord, we've arrived." A familiar voice suddenly rang in his ears, cold and emotionless. Wasn't this the annoying system from that "pseudo-domineering CEO"? Could it be that this mindless and heartless flame would also go to heaven?
Just as Lan Qingyue was lost in thought, the sweet aroma of fruit made her open her eyes. She wasn't in heaven at all; she was clearly in the living room of a mansion, sitting on a soft sofa. In front of her was a round coffee table laden with snacks and fruit, all of which Lan Qingyue had ordered online a few days ago. There was a staircase not far away, from which she could see the second floor. Turning around, she saw a full-length mirror, with vibrant colors outside.
Isn't this the villa left behind by the original owner?
"My lady, we've arrived home."
