Chapter 24: After being chased by the male lead, I passed the civil service exam (Bonus Chapter)
Xu Zhixia was so frightened that she sat on the sofa, staring blankly at her reflection.
Xu Zhixia's expression was apologetic: "I'm sorry, I've tried my best, but I still can't do it."
Looking at her haggard face, Xu Zhixia felt a mix of emotions: "You must have had a tough time these past few years?"
The other person was also stunned: "I'm used to it. Every struggle is fruitless. The same scenario has repeated itself so many times. No matter what I do, I can't get rid of it."
"The plot even forces me to accept him, accept those two children, and accept becoming Mrs. Gu."
Xu Zhixia clutched her chest, feeling an overwhelming bitterness.
She is really suffering.
Perhaps because it was her body, Xu Zhixia could sense her emotions.
How can I help you?
"you tell me."
[Xu Zhixia] looked at her: "In this world, I have lost count of how many times I have repeated this plot: the death of my parents, the humiliation I have suffered, being trampled on by that bitch time and time again. I am not reconciled."
Why did I have to be the female lead in this tragic novel?
[Xu Zhixia] The reflection of her image flowed with blood and tears.
"As I repeatedly followed the plot, I suddenly realized that I didn't know whether it was my future self or my past self who had broken free from the constraints of the plot."
[Xu Zhixia] reached out and begged, wanting to hold Xu Zhixia's hand: "Help me, help me."
Looking at the ethereal shadow, Xu Zhixia suddenly understood why she had appeared in this world.
It was to save himself from dire straits.
"Don't worry, I'll save myself."
The reflection disappeared before her eyes, turning into a gentle breeze that brushed against her.
Xu Zhixia looked up and touched her face, realizing that she had been crying.
As she disappeared, Xu Zhixia suddenly saw the tragic life of [Xu Zhixia], a life of running away, a life inescapable of escaping the tragic life of a "tortured heroine".
Was it he who saved my entire life?
【Hello Xu Zhixia, I am the system of Heaven's Path.】 The system was just thrown into the plot by Ji Huaizhi.
He was in a bad mood, and his tone was somewhat cold and harsh.
Xu Zhixia looked up and immediately got up from the sofa: "Who's talking?"
The system, realizing it had startled her, let out a guilty "Zzzzt": "No need to look anymore, I'm in your head."
Xu Zhixia spun around in place, frantically touching her head: "Come out!"
[Don't be nervous, I'm here to deliver something to you.] The system reassured: [The Heavenly Dao has seen your female protagonist's life repeated time and time again, yet you were able to awaken in dire straits, proving the strength of your soul.]
The Heavenly Dao admires you, so it sent me to deliver something to you.
Xu Zhixia blinked, somewhat bewildered.
[Reach out your hand.]
Xu Zhixia did as the system instructed.
A silver knife suddenly appeared in his hand. It was exquisite and had runes that he couldn't understand.
"This is the Soul-Shattering Blade; it can sever all shackles." The system explained to her, "If you use this blade to kill Gu Moyuan, your soul will be free and you will no longer be controlled by the plot."
Xu Zhixia's eyes lit up: "Really?"
【Um. 】
Holding the knife, Xu Zhixia felt a surge of excitement, her mind filled with only the five words: "Kill Gu Moyuan."
[Xu Zhixia.]
Xu Zhixia was surprised to hear the system call her so formally. It seemed like they were very familiar with each other.
Everything is going well; your loved one is waiting for you in another world.
Hearing his words, Xu Zhixia thought of Ji Huaizhi's face, and felt much calmer as she gripped the cold hilt of the knife.
Yes, Huaizhi is still waiting for me.
Xu Zhixia wasn't stupid. She remembered that Xu Zhixia said she had broken free from the plot. If there was anything different, it was Huaizhi, who saved her.
Now, she also wants to save another version of herself.

Ji Huaizhi opened his eyes, sat up, and looked at the woman on the bed: "Did you give her the things?"
Yes, host.
"Once this life ends, she will never repeat the tragic storyline of a heroine in a tragic novel, right?"
[Yes, host. The Soul-Shattering Blade will also cause Gu Moyuan's soul to be completely destroyed, and the last bit of luck he possesses will return to you.]
Ji Huaizhi looked down at Xu Zhixia, whose face looked sickly.
He reached out and touched her cheek: "Give her that bit of luck."
The system suddenly became agitated: [Host, what are you saying? The plot is so biased towards Gu Moyuan because of your luck! Do you know that even your tiny bit of luck can make her...]
"Then how come my luck is tied to Gu Moyuan?"
Ji Huaizhi asked calmly.
The system nervously hissed: "[This... is... well, it's that...]"
Seeing that he couldn't come up with a clear answer, Ji Huaizhi didn't press him for one: "Since Gu Moyuan didn't affect me much before, what's wrong with giving her the rest?"
The system made another buzzing sound:
[Yes, host.]
Ji Huaizhi bent down and kissed Xu Zhixia's forehead.
Xu Zhixia had her servants prepare a candlelight dinner on the other side, and the servants looked at her with disdain upon hearing it.
The lady was indeed pretending to be crazy to attract the young master's attention. Look, she's fine now, isn't she?
When Gu Mo came down, his eyes were full of mockery: "Now you know fear? Let me tell you, even if you try to please Dad, it's useless. I will still make Dad divorce you!"
Xu Zhixia looked at the child; his features were just like a miniature version of Gu Moyuan.
Just looking at him makes me feel disgusted.
"roll!"
"You! You actually..."
Thinking that this was the child she had borne for Gu Moyuan, Xu Zhixia felt no pity for him: "You don't want me to be your mother, but little do you know that I didn't want to give birth to you at all!"
"If I weren't forced to, I would have strangled you the moment you were born."
Hearing Xu Zhixia's words, something inside Gu Mo seemed to collapse: "You're lying!"
"What lie am I telling?" Xu Zhixia pushed him away: "Your birth was not expected. I was forced to give birth to you. To me, you are just the son of my enemy."
"Why are you crying?" Xu Zhixia sneered. "Didn't you call me a bitch? Didn't you despise me?"
What are you sad about?
Gu Mo roared through her tears, "I'm not sad!"
"I'm going to make Dad divorce you! I want Secretary Li to be my mom, and a big star to be my mom! I don't want an ugly monster like you to be my mom!"
Gu Mo pushed her away and ran upstairs again.
He won't be sad.
Xu Zhixia started laughing and then started crying; she didn't want to cry.
Wiping away her tears, she lamented, "Why are you so sad? Those two children were born because you were forced to."
Gu Moyuan looked impatient when he received Xu Zhixia's call.
After throwing the phone away, I wanted to continue what I hadn't finished with Secretary Li in the office, but I was suddenly pushed away.
"Aren't you going to answer the phone? What if something happens?"
"I won't answer. I used to find her interesting, but now just seeing her makes me feel nauseous." Gu Moyuan said, eagerly lowering his head.
A mocking glint flashed in Secretary Li's eyes: "Answer it. I remember Madam has never called you on her own initiative. She's probably calling because she needs something."
Gu Moyuan tried to accept it but was teased and pushed away by the woman.
Losing all interest, he got up, his face dark, and picked up his phone: "Hello?"
"Come home for dinner tonight." Xu Zhixia's voice was no different from usual.
But it's strange that I would call him first.
"I have something to do tonight, so you'll have to eat by yourself." Gu Moyuan looked at Secretary Li and told her that he would be having seafood with her tonight.
"No, come back to eat. I haven't been feeling well all day. Aren't you going to come back to see me?" Xu Zhixia said, suppressing her nausea.
"If you feel unwell, see your family doctor." Gu Moyuan was about to refuse when Secretary Li handed him his phone.
The screen reads: Go back home, you can eat the seafood tomorrow.
Gu Moyuan swallowed the rest of his words: "Okay, I'll be home at 7:30."
He hung up the phone decisively after finishing the call.
Secretary Li stood up and smoothed out his shirt: "Mr. Gu, don't be angry. Family comes first."
Gu Moyuan grabbed her wrist and pulled it away: "Go down."
Secretary Li withdrew her hand, her expression unchanged: "Yes, President Gu."
When I went out in high heels, my colleagues pointed and whispered about me.
I finally relaxed when I got back to my office and wiped my neck with a wet wipe in disgust.
After hanging up the phone, Xu Zhixia told the maid to finish cooking and leave, and then went upstairs to her bedroom to prepare herself mentally.
As soon as she went upstairs, she saw the little girl, who looked at her sadly biting her lip: "Were the things you said to your brother said in anger or were they the truth?"
Xu Zhixia had no interest in arguing with the child and turned around to go straight back to her room.
Before going in, he said, "I need to talk to your father tonight, so stay in your rooms and don't come out."
"The servants will bring your meals up."
After closing the door, the child went back with his head down.
Gu Mo stood behind the door: "I told you not to talk to that crazy woman."
"Mom seems to hate us even more now."
