Chapter 208 001
Shen Yuling slowly opened her eyes, her fingertips tightly clenched the quilt, her knuckles turning white from the force.
The surging memories in her mind made her chest feel stuffy and she could hardly breathe.
The first time she completed a mission was to find Ye Lan Ze, and thus she stepped into Quan Minghe's world.
But she didn't expect that Ye Lanze died, and it was because of her that he died.
But everything she suffered was a conspiracy planned by Ye Lanze's parents, and even her parents' deaths were caused by the Ye family.
Gratitude and hatred intertwined into an invisible net that bound her tightly, and she even lost her heart because of a mission.
I have betrayed Quan Minghe's sincerity again.
Regardless of whether Kwon Myung-hyuk later marries a concubine and has children, or falls in love with someone else, his original sincerity cannot be denied.
Chen Yangxi returns to the modern era, forgets everything, and starts a new life. This may be the best ending for the two of them.
But for the sake of the original owner, Xitong pulled her back into this world, causing her to become entangled with Quan Minghe again.
She is no longer the young girl who was just beginning to fall in love.
After years of working in the entertainment industry, she has long seen through people's hearts, let alone an emperor like Kwon Myung-hyuk?
How could she be sincere again?
Even if all her memories were restored, there were too many people and things between her and Kwon Myung-hyuk, and they could never go back to the way they were before.
Since it was impossible for them to meet, she could wish Quan Minghe a good life, after all, he had treated her sincerely.
But she couldn't be with Kwon Myeong-hyuk, who already had concubines, children, and a dictatorial personality.
Shen Yangxi was only nineteen years old when he was on the mission, and Shen Yuling, who came through for the second time, was twenty-six years old.
Compared to love, she desires freedom more.
Shen Yuling's expression gradually returned to calm. She reached out to take the medicine bowl brought by Xitong and drank the pregnancy-stabilizing medicine in one gulp.
The bitter medicine slid down her throat, as if suppressing the bitterness in her heart.
Xitong stood aside. As a system, she shouldn't have too many emotions, but she couldn't help but feel sorry for Shen Yuling.
In modern times, Shen Yuling lost her loving parents. She finally got the protection and love of Ye Lanze, but he suddenly disappeared.
After completing the 001 mission, she discovered that Ye Lanze was the son of the murderer of her parents.
What kind of mood is this?
Xitong as a system cannot feel.
Shen Yuling came to ancient times and completed Quan Minghe's mission as Bai Yueguang. She fell in love with the young emperor for the first time, but in the end she was unable to be with him.
Back in the modern era, she chose to forget everything and worked hard in the entertainment industry alone, growing into the free and independent, strong and sober Shen Yuling.
Afterwards, for the sake of the original host, Xitong made a deal with Shen Yuling again without the knowledge of 001, bringing her back to this world and allowing her to meet Quan Minghe again.
She had clearly gotten the answer, but was once again drawn into the vortex of fate.
Shen Yuling had three wishes, and one of them was even used for the original owner.
Xitong sometimes felt that her heart was terribly cold, as if she could turn a blind eye to any kindness a man showed her.
But sometimes I feel that she is soft-hearted. Except for Liu Jingyi and Liu Shihan, she always has more kindness towards women.
Xitong looked at her belly, hesitated for a moment, and finally said: "Host, I'm sorry... 001 and I took advantage of you. But..."
She paused, her voice as light as a sigh, "001 is one of the most advanced systems. It brought you back to this world, and it must not be for no reason. Although I don't know the reason, you... must not fall into the memories of the past."
"I don't want to see you sad."
Xitong's voice lowered, with a hint of indescribable guilt and pity.
Shen Yuling raised her eyes, her gaze was as calm as water, but with a hint of alienation and indifference.
She gently put down the medicine bowl, a faint smile on the corner of her lips, as if she saw through everything, but was unwilling to say anything.
"Xitong,"
She spoke softly, "I am no longer the Chen Yangxi of the past. The memories of the past are nothing but passing clouds to me. I will no longer be trapped by anyone or anything."
Xitong looked at her in a daze, feeling an inexplicable sourness in her heart.
She knew that Shen Yuling's heart had long been hardened by the years, but even so, she still hoped that she could find her own freedom and peace.
Shen Yuling smiled, with a hint of relief in her eyes.
Nineteen-year-old Chen Yangxi couldn't bear those heavy memories and chose to forget them.
But now Shen Yuling has long been indifferent to love.
She may have had the ability to love in the past, but now she only has the energy to love herself and can no longer give her heart to others.
"Even though I have already found the answer I want most, I still have two wishes to fulfill during this mission."
Shen Yuling spoke in a carefree tone, as if she was talking about an insignificant matter, "I have been working for almost two years and earned two wishes. It's worth it. I am not sad."
Before he finished speaking, a cheerful voice suddenly sounded in his mind, with a bit of pride: "As expected of the host I chose, you are really free and easy!"
Shen Yuling heard the familiar voice, and the corners of her mouth twitched slightly, with a hint of sarcasm in her tone: "001, I thought you wouldn't show up again, are you afraid of being embarrassed to see me?"
It would have been fine if she just completed the mission for 001, but she also tricked Xitong into completing the mission.
001 paused for a moment, then said in a flattering tone: "Master Host, I am doing everything for your own good."
Shen Yuling was calm and collected, raised her eyebrows slightly, and waited for 001 to quibble.
"When you completed the mission, you were sad for Quan Minghe, and also suffered for Ye Lanze's kindness and hatred. If you were allowed to stay in that world at that time, I believe you and Quan Minghe would have the best ending."
At that time, Shen Yuling lost her family and Ye Lanze, the only person who loved her in modern times. If she stayed in Gan Dynasty, Quan Minghe would give her all his love and heal all her pain.
"Unfortunately, I had no reason to let you stay in the first place."
The deal between 001 and Shen Yuling was just to find someone, so it was impossible to keep her from another world in Quan Minghe's world.
Shen Yuling's expression did not change, but unfortunately there was no if.
001 continued: "It wasn't until Xitong found me that I felt the time was right."
001's voice gradually became serious. "You are in the modern world. All your loved ones have passed away. Even if you lost your memory and started over, you have never fallen in love with another person."
"The person you love and the person you want to find are both in Ganchao. So, I told Xitong that you can fulfill her former host's wish."
"As long as you complete the task, I can grant you three wishes. Whether you want to stay or not, it's a win-win for you."
Shen Yuling's brows turned cold.
Yes, how could she lose? As long as she didn't care about deceiving Ye Jinshu and didn't care about hurting Quan Minghe's heart, she would return to the modern era. These two wishes would allow her to live a carefree life.
The system has no emotions, but Shen Yuling is not a machine.
She is calculating, but that doesn't mean she has no heart at all.
Shen Yuling didn't want to discuss sincerity with the system, so she asked, "Who am I looking for?"
001 sighed and said, "Ye Lanze. He was reincarnated as Ye Jinshu in this world."
When mentioning Ye Jinshu, 001's tone was filled with regret, "He is the one who fell in love with you in both lives. Unfortunately, you didn't love him in either life."
No matter whether Shen Yuling is with Quan Minghe or Ye Jinshu in the end, 001 feels that she will be happy.
So when the opportunity arose, Shen Yuling was brought back to this world.
But what 001 didn't know was that a few years later, Shen Yuling no longer believed in love and no longer had the ability to love. Feelings were dispensable to her, and even feelings became a hindrance to her.
001 said so much, but Shen Yuling just kept her head down and remained silent.
So what if Ye Jinshu is the reincarnation of Ye Lanze?
Ye Jinshu is Ye Jinshu, she would not confuse the two.
"Host, what are you thinking about?"
Shen Yuling shook her head. 001 didn’t understand the complex emotions of humans at all.
Then he asked curiously, "When I was Shen Yangxi and hadn't died yet, I seemed to be brought to this world by Xitong. Was there two of me in this world at that time?"
Why does it feel a bit scary when I think about it?
001's voice suddenly became unfathomable: "No, it's not the same world."
"Quan Minghe is in a world of male-oriented novels, while Feng Moheng and Shen Yuling are in another world of romantic novels."
001 paused and continued to explain, "Two worlds are two time and space."
"It's like you at different times have arrived at different time and space."
"When Chen Yangxi died and you met Quan Minghe again, the two worlds merged together."
"There is only one you in every world."
Shen Yuling nodded. So that's it.
