Chapter 79: Bai Yueguang's Rebirth (16)

Shen Ci's lips curled up slowly and she answered him, "Of course you like me."

"So, do you accept my confession?" Pei Yu asked.

Shen Ci showed a playful expression on his face: "It depends on your performance."

"Then I'll assume we're together." Pei Yu said.

"I want to eat sweet and sour pork ribs." Shen Ci suddenly said.

Pei Yu smiled gently: "I'm a decent cook. I'll cook for you tonight."

"Yes." Shen Ci responded.

After Pei Yu left, Shen Ci called up the system: "Where's number one?"

[Here...] A weak mechanical male voice sounded.

"Hello, Number One." Shen Ci greeted it.

[Who are you? ] Number One asked with some caution.

"I, the actor who plays the vicious female supporting role." Shen Ci answered it.

【Who plays the vicious female supporting role? 】

“In short, your heroine doesn’t want to wake up, so I will take her place, perform her part, and help the plot of this world flow.” Shen Ci explained.

[Don't want to wake up?] Number One was stunned, [Yeah, after going through such painful torture, how can I be willing to wake up... Do you want to help Number Two circulate? You can't help it circulate!]

"Don't worry, I am a rebellious person and will not help it circulate," said Shen Ci.

【and you……】

"Do you want to continue flowing?" Shen Ci asked it.

【I……】

"If I'm not mistaken, you and number two should be mutually exclusive, right? In order to circulate itself, it wants to kill your heroine and hero, right?"

【How do you know? 】

"Part of it was told to me by your mistress, and part of it was my own guess based on the circumstances. Number Two came to see me."

【Have you been looking for me?】

"Well, it was yesterday. Actually, it came to find you."

Number One suddenly fell silent.

Shen Ci sighed, "It looks very angry. What did you do?"

Number One was silent for a long time, and Shen Ci was not in a hurry, waiting for it to speak.

After a long while, it finally spoke: [It killed Ziyi, so I used my power to help Ayu and killed Banshi.]

"Then it has to expend its energy to turn back time? No wonder it is so angry. It is very weak now. Even Banshi's heroine halo is of no use." Shen Ci raised his eyebrows and said.

【That’s better than me.】 said No.1.

"Why do you suppress Pei Yu's memory?" Shen Ci asked it.

[It wasn't me who suppressed it, it was No. 2 who suppressed it. Ayu was forced to kill Ziyi. After Ziyi's death, he was in great pain every day. Now time has gone back, so I just let it go and didn't restore Ayu's memory.] No. 1 said.

"But you restored Jing Ziyi's memory." Shen Ci said.

【Yes.】 Number One responded.

"Let Pei Yu continue to lose her memory and let Jing Ziyi recover her memory... In fact, besides being afraid of Pei Yu's pain, you also want to try and see if they can get back together, right? Unfortunately, after Jing Ziyi had that painful memory, he was not willing to wake up at all."

【I……】

"Do you want Jing Ziyi to wake up?" Shen Ci asked suddenly.

Number One was a little anxious: [Can you wake Ziyi up? ]

"Of course, as you and No. 2 evolve, she will wake up naturally." Shen Ci said.

【Evolution?】

"Away from the plot, it's evolution."

[But this is a novel world, and the plot is more important than anything else.] Number One shook his head.

"But here, it's still the world, everything is possible." Shen Ci pursed his lips and said, "In fact, not only Jing Ziyi but also Pei Yu don't want to wake up."

[Isn't Ayu awake...? ]

"Do you think he looks like Pei Yu?"

Does it look like that?

Not really...

So, she is no longer Ayu?

"Jing Ziyi is in pain, and so is Pei Yu. That's murder."

Except for a truly mentally ill person, who would feel comfortable killing someone? Not to mention that in the plot of No. 1, Pei Yu loved Jing Ziyi very much.

I watched helplessly as I hurt the person I loved the most. I wanted to save her, but I couldn't...

Finally one day, he really killed his lover.

"Have you ever thought that it wasn't you who helped him kill Banshi with your power, but his resistance in despair that made him go against the plot."

【I……】

"I was once like him, controlled by the plot and lost my love, but did I do anything wrong? I didn't do anything, just because I am a vicious female supporting role?"

When she talked about the past, her voice trembled. Shen Ci took a deep breath and said to the system, "Let it go."

【Host……】

"Let it go. It has no intention of cooperating and we can't force it," Shen Ci said.

[Okay.] The system said weakly.

Shen Ci said to No. 1: "I'll give you some time to think about it. If you want to cooperate, come find me."

Number One did not answer and was thrown out by the system.

After the system finished throwing, it put its hands on its hips and prepared to get angry.

Shen Ci spoke before it got angry, "I don't think it's unreasonable. Try to reason with it. If it refuses, we can use force."

[Okay, okay.] The system thought for a moment and hummed, [But, host, what's going on with Pei Yu?]

Shen Ci coughed and said, "It's just made up."

[It's just a fabrication, can it be believed?] The system is suspicious.

Shen Ci said seriously: "Maybe its IQ is not as high as yours."

【Dog host! 】

"Well, don't you want to know about my past?" Shen Ci asked, changing the subject.

The system hesitated: [This is a very sad thing, and I don't want to hurt the host. ]

"Tong, you are so sensible." Shen Ci praised it.

[It’s just so-so.] The system said arrogantly.

"Actually, it's not something that can't be mentioned." Shen Ci said.

[Then tell me about it? ] The system asked curiously.

"Do you know that kind of group pet novel?" Shen Ci asked it.

[Same as the previous world? ]

"Well, my experience is very similar to hers. When I entered that world, I even doubted whether your system did it on purpose."

[I guarantee that the system did not do this on purpose.]

"Then I'll just believe it for now."

"There were two girls, one was the daughter of the richest man, and the other was the daughter of a poor family. They happened to be born in the same hospital and were taken away by mistake. Eighteen years later, the richest man finally found out that his daughter was taken away by mistake. He wanted to take his biological daughter back, but he couldn't bear to give up the child of the poor family, so he raised both of them together."

[The richest man's child, is it you? ]

"Well, you know, I have three brothers. On the first day I was taken back, they gave me a warning and locked me in the basement of the Shen family villa. They told me not to dream of them accepting me, and not to dream of becoming the daughter of the Shen family. I am not worthy of it."

【them……】

"They doted on Shen Jiani in every way. She needed to be fed and carried when she went downstairs. She looked weak all the time, which made everyone think that I had bullied her again. Because of her, I once hated people. Men and women, no matter what they looked like, I hated them and was disgusted by them. They were a bunch of brainless people who were played around by a fool."
