Chapter 318 I Believe in You
Let me tell you how Si Linglong feels now.
It was the same feeling she had just heard from Helian Yue that he could read people's minds.
It's not the feeling of being fooled, but the feeling of auditory hallucination.
She really thought she was hallucinating.
"S-system?"
[Which system? Is it the one I know? Or is there some ancient homonym I haven't heard of? ? ]
Si Linglong's heart was filled with all kinds of questions at this moment.
This was the first time Helian Yue imitated her serious deceptive way of speaking, and he didn't feel guilty at all.
"Yeah." Helian Yue frowned slightly, which made him look solemn and gloomy.
"Perhaps my beloved concubine finds this a little absurd. In fact, I still find it absurd, so I have never been able to explain it to you. But I can indeed hear something called a system constantly talking to me in my mind."
Si Linglong opened her mouth, too surprised to speak.
[It’s actually a living system… Where did it come from? Could it be that the previous system also bound two people at once?! ]
If Si Linglong's system was online at this moment, it would definitely explain it with a mechanical tone.
No, it is a system with integrity, that is why it is not tied to two people at once.
Especially since this person is a villain.
This villain is lying!
But even if it was explained, Helian Yue was not worried.
According to the information about the system he had read from Si Linglong, he quickly pieced together another system for himself.
"The system told me that this is actually a world in a storybook, and all my actions must follow the plot in the storybook. Otherwise... the people around me will suffer the consequences of violating the plot."
Si Linglong's eyes widened.
[Yes! This is it! I have one too!! We, we have the same one! ]
An emotionless system: No, you are not the same, I am unique.
Helian Yue looked at Si Linglong's reaction and then supplemented his settings.
"I didn't believe it at first, until that night... after I clearly rejected Shen Rongrong's entry into the palace, I watched you fall down in front of me, and even Doctor Yu couldn't diagnose the specific reason. I realized that Shen Rongrong's entry into the palace was the plot arranged in the storybook. Unless I accept this plot, you will continue to suffer."
Helian Yue paused for a moment and continued, "I have never been forced to do anything for others, but if the price of refusing to do anything is to make my beloved concubine suffer, I cannot accept it."
Although the previous part about the system is false, this is true.
He never cared about having another decoration in the harem, but he cared about her.
Si Linglong was completely stunned when she heard this.
She had thought of so many reasons, but she had never thought of this possibility.
【He actually did it... for me.】
No one knew better than her how she felt at that time. She thought she had endured the [punishment] of the system but was "betrayed" by him. However, she never thought that he had never betrayed her. He just compromised with the system for her...
Si Linglong's eyes turned red. She opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but she didn't know how to start.
Then, Helian Yue seemed to sigh and smiled bitterly at himself.
"I know that this reason is too absurd. It is just a lie I made up. My beloved concubine should not believe it."
As Helian Yue spoke, he lowered his eyes slightly, giving people a sense of inexplicable helplessness.
Si Linglong's heart suddenly tightened when she heard this. Almost without hesitation, she grasped Helian Yue's hand. Her white and slender palm tried to wrap around the slender palm with distinct knuckles.
Si Linglong's eyes were red as she held Helian Yue's hand tightly for a long while, her voice slightly hoarse.
"I believe it."
"Ayue, I believe you."
