His diary
When Lu Yin woke up from the system again, a system notification sounded in his ear: "User Lan Yi has been detected with fluctuations in life energy. It is recommended to activate the 'Memory Rewind' protocol - by completing the specified tasks, the hidden truth can be unlocked."
"Please check the diary trigger."
On the system interface, a flashing diary icon reads: "Task 1: Open the diary page to gain 30% favorability."
Lu Yin's fingers trembled slightly. She remembered that two years ago, Lan Yi had written here: "I argued with Lu Yin today. She said I've changed. But I just wanted to spend more time with her..." Now, this diary had become a thorn in her heart. She took a deep breath, opened the diary, and saw only one line of hastily written words: "Not going home tonight. Don't wait for me." Below it was a blurry photo—a picture of Lan Yi and a strange woman in front of a hotel, the woman's hand on his shoulder.
The system notification suddenly turned cold: "User Lan Yi has been detected to have engaged in persistent emotional betrayal. His favorability rating has decreased by 20%, and his health points have decreased by 10%."
Lu Yin's pupils contracted sharply. At the time, she thought she was just being paranoid, but now she felt that the long hair was like a knife, piercing her trust.
Lu Yin gritted her teeth and clicked confirm. The data space cracked open, and she found herself standing at the door of an apartment. A woman's laughter came from the crack in the door, mingling with Lan Yi's voice. She pushed open the door and saw Lan Yi sitting on the sofa with a strange woman. The woman's hand was on his shoulder, and a half-empty glass of red wine sat on the coffee table.
"You're back?" Lan Yi looked up, a hint of panic on his face. "This is Xiao Ya, my colleague."
Tears welled up in Lu Yin's eyes instantly. She suddenly remembered that last week at the amusement park, Lan Yi had secretly used his phone to contact a number, which she had mistaken for a work number. A system notification sounded: "Memory recall complete. 40% favorability gained, but Lan Yi's health points decreased by 15%."
Next, the system displayed a series of diary pages from June 2019 to March 2020, each page recording Lan Yi's dates with different women. Lu Yin's fingers trembled on the screen. She suddenly realized that the change two years ago wasn't ALS, but Lan Yi's betrayal. The system notification sounded again: "User Lan Yi has been detected to have engaged in persistent emotional infidelity. His favorability rating has dropped to 40%, and his health has dropped to 30%."
When Lu Yin woke up from the system again, she found herself standing in front of a mirror in her apartment. Her face was pale, and the dark circles under her eyes resembled two bruised feathers. The system notification sounded again:
"User Lan Yi has been detected to have engaged in persistent emotional infidelity."
Favorability dropped to 40%.
Lan Yi's health has dropped to 30%.
Lu Yin's pupils suddenly contracted. She suddenly remembered that last week at the restaurant, Lan Yi had secretly used his mobile phone to contact a number, which she had assumed was a work number.
"That despicable Lan Yi should have died young, or at least it would have been better. He played me like this; he deserved to be abandoned like this, no doubt about it!" Lu Yin grew angrier the more she thought about it, so she decided not to reconcile.
The truth behind the diary is not just a trade of favorability and life points, but also a redefinition of love by Lu Yin and Lan Yi—here, she is determined to complete the mission, and moreover, she cannot become his lover.
