He Nian lied, her neck stiff: "Then you saved my life, but because A-Yun wouldn't let me see you, I've never had a chance to repay you."
He Nian silently apologized in her heart: I'm sorry, A-Yun.
Jiang Yihuan could tell at a glance that He Nian was lying. She wondered what He Nian was thinking during those few seconds of pause.
Ye Qi scratched her head and said, "I told you I really didn't know."
Ye Qi assumed that the person who saved He Nian's life was someone else named Ye Qi.
She didn't want to take credit for it.
Jiang Yihuan looked at Ye Qi's silly expression, sighed inwardly, and finally patted Ye Qi's head: "I know."
Shangguan Li scoffed coldly and pointed angrily at He Nian: "So what? Anyway, in this second life, I will never let you deceive Brother Yun again!"
He Nian shook her head: "I've never understood why I always manage to spill red wine on Ye Jingyan."
So it was you who was behind all this!
Shangguan Li's face turned pale. "Hmph, you have the nerve to talk back to me? Don't you enjoy splashing red wine on him too? Otherwise, why do you always believe me when I say I'm going to do part-time work somewhere!"
He Nian shook her head in disappointment: "I thought you were different in this life than you were in the last."
Shangguan Li scoffed, "System, oh system, is this the kind, virtuous, and beautiful female protagonist you were talking about? It's hilarious! This is just plain stupid! Even after being reborn, she's still this stupid!"
The system, enraged, yelled, "You're the one who's cunning!! How dare you accuse the female lead!"
"Hmph, as long as I'm around, I'll never let you, you slut, seduce Brother Yun!"
He Nian shook her head: "It's no use."
“Ah Yun and I never want to go through hardship again in this life, so we got together a long time ago.”
Upon hearing this, Shangguan Li was stunned: "Wh...what?"
"No way! No way! You must be lying to me! Yun-gege and I are the best couple!"
"How dare you steal my Yun-gege!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Qi scratched her head, feeling an itch that made her head itch as if it was about to grow a brain.
So it turns out that the male and female leads and the female supporting character were all reborn.
Goodness.
Only her older brother is missing.
However, she was 100% certain that her older brother had not been reborn, because he looked so stupid that he didn't seem like someone who had been reborn.
He Nian looked at her sympathetically: "Take a look at the news. In this lifetime, we will never let the Shangguan family harm anyone again."
Upon hearing this, Shangguan Li took out her phone with a complicated expression. The moment she saw the overwhelming scandals of the Shangguan family online, she collapsed to the ground, utterly dejected.
"impossible……"
"Why……"
"Why can't I beat you even if I start over?!"
"System! Give me the items! I want to start over!"
The system asked, bewildered, "Huh? The main storyline has been brought forward?"
Seeing the system's dazed look, Shangguan Li wanted nothing more than to smash it to pieces. She roared in a high-pitched voice:
"System! I'm bound to you! You won't get away with this even if I die! Give me the items now!"
Shangguan Li's pupils contracted sharply, her expression one of madness, her voice trembling with excitement: "Yes! That's right! I still have the system! I can't possibly lose!"
She and the system are teammates in the same boat. Without her, the system would also perish. Doesn't the system have to listen to whatever she says?
She hasn't lost yet!
She, Shangguan Li, cannot lose!
"System! I want to redeem! I want to redeem the 'Love at First Sight' item!"
She originally planned to surprise Yun-ge on his birthday and give him her heartfelt gift.
But now that shameless He Nian has taken it upon herself to seduce Brother Yun ahead of time!
She must turn the tide quickly!
All I have to do is use love at first sight to make Brother Yun fall in love with me!
However.
The system, however, spoke with its icy, zero-degree mouth, uttering words of -18 degrees Celsius:
"What kind of dream are you having! Bah! You big bad devil who deceived the innocent system! I was so naive and gullible to believe you! I've already completed the mission ahead of schedule! The main system has allowed me to say goodbye to you!"
"Hmph! Next time I'll be more careful and not get involved with a scoundrel like you!"
"drop--"
"System disconnecting—"
"System successfully disconnected—"
Upon hearing this, Shangguan Li screamed in despair, "System?"
"system!"
"system!!"
"ah!!!!!"
Shangguan Li grabbed her hair in a heart-wrenching scream, looking like a mentally unstable shrew, cursing the system in a breakdown.
Jiang Yihuan watched as Shangguan Li yelled and screamed like a madwoman, thinking it would set a bad example for the child, and pulled Ye Qi away.
Seeing Shangguan Li's state, He Nian said dejectedly in a low voice, "I thought we could become friends."
He Nian eventually left.
In the empty, drafty abandoned building, only Shangguan Li remained, frantically shouting for the system to return.
After Jiang Yihuan took a taxi to send Ye Qi home, she then left in He Nian's direction.
She always felt that He Nian was hiding something, and if she was lucky, she would find out how Ye Qi, who was only mentioned briefly in the plot, died.
When Ye Qi got home, it was already midnight.
The living room lights were on, but she didn't find it a problem at all, since the living room lights were on all day.
Just as she was about to walk towards the elevator, she suddenly heard a familiar voice: "Coming back so late?"
Ye Qi turned around abruptly and saw her eldest brother sitting on the sofa.
She blinked innocently, trying to get away with it.
But Ye Jingyan wasn't buying it and told her to come over.
Ye Qi had no choice but to go over.
As soon as she sat down, Ye Jingyan pushed a small cake that had been sitting on the table for a long time toward Ye Qi.
