"If I dropped my fan, I'd pick it up myself if I wanted it. Do I need someone else to pick it up for me? I threw it away because I didn't want it anymore. Are you just being a busybody and picking it up for me?"
Gu Qinyao was so angry at the person in front of her.
Murong Lie had already made a small name for himself in her world.
With so many cheat codes, there are hardly any missions that can't be completed.
Everyone was watching Murong Lie's behavior.
Many people even like his eccentric personality.
Gu Qinyao really wanted to tell them to come and work in her place.
This person completely ruined all the romantic words she had in mind.
Judging from the way they're talking now, they're about to fight, so Gu Qinyao won't have a chance to pretend to be a fairy.
"Young master, you look somewhat familiar—"
Gu Qinyao deliberately ignored Murong Lie's words and tried to start another topic.
This is really defying common sense.
Murong Lie had been dreaming about that hazy figure for so long; he should have memorized it perfectly.
In order to evoke his memories, Gu Qinyao even wore similar clothes and had a similar hairstyle.
Murong Lie's eyes looked so unfamiliar.
Gu Qinyao was almost certain that this person didn't know her at all.
So all that money she spent to make him dream about it turned out to be a waste of time?
Murong Lie indicated that it was not a wasted effort.
He is now trying to break free from the negative influence of his dreams.
If we want to mitigate the impact, the first thing we must do is learn not to care.
Many people can't let go of their worries because they care too much.
Murong Lie did not believe that the woman in his dream was the root of his abnormality.
He had always disliked that woman, so how could he possibly...
Murong Lie always believed that it was an evil spirit.
Since it's impossible to completely drive them away, you should subconsciously try to downplay their presence.
What's more, he has Jiang Tian by his side now.
Although Jiang Tian seemed a bit dazed every day, as if she were not on the same page as others, at least he didn't find her annoying.
In a sense, she was still somewhat useful...
"What do you mean you look familiar? Do I even know you? Is it a mistake that I'm handsome?"
Murong Lie found it extremely boring.
What's the difference between this woman and the other women he'd met before?
It's just a waste of his time, isn't it?
"They're gone."
Murong Lie called out to Jiang Tian, then bypassed Gu Qinyao and left quite calmly.
Jiang Tian followed behind him, looking respectful and obedient, just like a good servant.
In Murong Lie's mind, he didn't intend to punish Gu Qinyao, so she should be grateful.
If someone else had stopped him out of nowhere, he would have had them arrested and imprisoned.
What Murong Lie didn't know was that the reason he wasn't so angry when someone stopped him, and even left on his own, was because Gu Qinyao used her cheat ability.
Gu Qinyao was truly terrified.
She never imagined that one day she would be so unlucky as to have to take on the task twice.
After restarting this world, Gu Qinyao bought herself a cheat code—to minimize the negative impact and malice of the mission objectives.
In other words, it would offset the damage that Murong Lie would cause her.
This time, it was this cheat code that came into play.
In fact, Gu Qinyao had bought items to increase Murong Lie's favorability, but later found that she had spent a lot of money and they had no effect on him at all.
Gu Qinyao was already very fortunate to have a cheat ability that could offset the negative effects.
Murong Lie didn't throw her in jail, nor did he drag her out without even asking her any questions, unlike in her previous life. She was truly moved.
It's at least different from my previous life.
But what good is saving yourself? Gu Qinyao looked at the mission panel and saw that the progress was 0, and she felt like crying.
Murong Lie had no idea that the person he had just met was the one who had helped him regain his life.
He simply turned to Jiang Tian and asked, "Did you have fun today?"
"I'm so happy! It's been so long since I've been out and about. I haven't been out since I entered the palace. I'm really happy."
Jiang Tian was a good servant girl, very good at knowing how to be pragmatic.
He was stopped by that strange woman just now, and she didn't say a word. Anyone who didn't know better would think she was just watching a show.
"Jiang Tian, should I remind you of your responsibilities?"
Murong Lie asked her in a cold voice.
“I am your personal maid,” Jiang Tian replied fluently.
"Since you know you're my personal maid, how can I trust you if there's danger in the future? When that woman ran over just now, you didn't even stop her; you were practically cracking sunflower seeds on her. Are you that interested in me being flirted with by other people?"
As he spoke, Murong Lie began to feel a little aggrieved.
She finally managed to get out and have some fun, but she got harassed by someone, and her travel companion ignored her completely. How could she be so heartless?
“Your Highness, you are exaggerating. I don’t understand you, which is why I didn’t know whether I should step forward and reprimand you.”
"Don't understand? What don't you understand?"
Murong Lie felt that this person was really strange.
"Because the person who stopped you was an absolute beauty, so incredibly beautiful. I thought you would be moved by such a beautiful woman."
"I'm really sorry," Murong Lie snorted coldly. He didn't have much of a sense of beauty or ugliness by nature; as long as something was pleasing to the eye, that was enough.
"You think you can just refuse to help me so you can get yourself thrown in jail sooner and fulfill your birthday wish?"
"No, I haven't chosen where to be buried yet. I don't want to be like the other palace maids, dying as if their dignity has been extinguished, just rolled up in straw and that's it. I'm a very particular person. I always have to make arrangements for what happens after I die. Since I have the means, I will definitely fight for it. Your Highness, please rest assured, I will not act rashly at the moment."
Murong Lie realized that she was really serious.
"...You're really particular."
Jiang Tian nodded seriously: "When I was alive, I was a slave and could not even get the freedom I wanted. When my time comes, I have to find a good place for myself."
Murong Lie remained silent.
He could only say that he couldn't win an argument with her.
He couldn't argue with someone who was indifferent to life and death.
He couldn't argue with him, but someone could help him deal with Jiang Tian.
Upon learning that the Empress wanted to see her, Jiang Tian remained remarkably calm.
"Then come with me," the head palace maid beside the Empress said to Jiang Tian with a smile.
Jiang Tian nodded and followed.
They soon arrived at the palace where the Empress resided.
After Jiang Tian finished performing the grand ceremony, she finally met the Empress.
The mother and son do look very alike.
The Empress was also somewhat curious about Jiang Tian.
She had chosen so many back then, but her son wasn't happy with any of them. How could this one be suitable?
This palace maid didn't seem to have anything special about her.
"I have summoned you here. Do you know why?"
