After waking up, Liu Shen watched the wedding scene being broadcast live and silently took a sip of wine.
The spicy and pungent liquid burned me like a fire as it went down my throat.
He murmured, "Why, why couldn't you wait for me?"
He chuckled softly after saying that: "You clearly promised to help me out, but you went back on your word halfway through. Do I mean that little to you?"
Unfortunately, all of this was just him talking to himself; no one could answer him.
The bride on the screen was wearing a beautiful dress. Liu Shen knew that the dress must have been designed by her, but sadly, the person wearing it was no longer her. Liu Shen sighed, and then made no further moves.
Not to mention Lu Qingyan, even that person's aura vanished without a trace. He originally had a chance to leave, but now, with his strength not fully recovered, he felt trapped inside, only able to grow old with the passing years.
He still lamented, why hadn't he encountered such a thing?
Was all of this the result of that person's meticulous planning? The light in his eyes dimmed instantly. Sure enough, no matter how much time passed, he would still be defeated. That person's strength was superior to his own.
The only consolation is that I remember everything now. I truly hope that I'll have this opportunity to remember everything again in the future.
Oh well, it's just a lifetime, not that long for him.
He took another sip of wine, his usually cool expression turning dazed. He drank a few more glasses and soon fell asleep.
When Lu Qingyan returned to the system space once again, the familiar mechanical voice still echoed in her ears.
"Congratulations, Master, mission completion rate 70%, 800 points earned for this mission." The mechanical voice made Lu Qingyan overjoyed, but the mission completion rate made her somewhat less happy.

Main Quest: Revenge!
Looking at the name, Lu Qingyan knew what kind of world this was. Then, looking at the names of the male and female protagonists, Lu Qingyan knew that this background was definitely not in modern times.
For a moment, she was afraid of what she would encounter in that world. A ghost, that's a ghost! She just didn't know who this ghost was.
Although I'm still a little scared, I have to step forward when it matters. The mission has already been chosen, and there's absolutely no room for regret.
After the familiar dizziness, Lu Qingyan found herself floating on the roof.
Yes, it was floating; this scene almost scared her so much that she fell off the roof.
So... am I that ghost? Lu Qingyan realized this a beat too late, and wished she could bang her head on the ground.
Sure enough, Lu Qingyan flicked her sleeves and felt like she had floated quite a distance. Now she really wanted to go out for a stroll and eat some delicious food. But the truth was that she couldn't go too far from here, and it seemed that ghosts couldn't eat.
Alas, what a tragedy of life!
