Chapter 3



◎[Pei Ji's current favorability towards you is: -99]◎

Encountered an unexpected situation, the system also got stuck: [Unknown error... System detection...]

An Jiu sat on the ground in a daze, looking at the man in white in front of the dilapidated temple, his mind in a mess.

This shouldn’t happen. There is no such plot in the book. How could a mysterious person suddenly appear?

The man in white seemed to be stunned as well, standing there for a long time without moving.

An Jiu couldn't figure out the other party's intention. It was obvious that the man in white was not an ordinary person. It would be easy for him to kill a weak woman like her. She didn't dare to make a sound. She huddled in the corner of the ruined temple as quietly as a chicken, staring at the man in white without blinking.

The man in white moved his feet and took a step forward. He raised his hand.

An Jiu's mind raced, and he quickly pretended to be panicked, his face pale and his voice trembling, "Are you here to save me?"

In fact, there was no need to pretend. She was really afraid that the man in white would kill her. In the world of martial arts, killing people is a common practice.

Moreover, An Jiu could vaguely feel that the man in white behind the silver mask looked at her with an extremely cold gaze, without any warmth at all.

This person seemed to have a grudge against her. Was he here to seek revenge?

What enemies could Miss Anjiu have?

An Jiu was thinking nervously, and the next moment he was surprised to find that the aura of the man in white suddenly changed.

Just after she finished speaking, the man in white paused and slowly lowered his raised hand.

"Well," the man in white spoke slowly. His voice was gentle, completely different from the frightening aura emanating from him. It was as soft as water. "I was passing by here and saw a villain trying to humiliate the girl. I acted hastily..."

He seemed to be speaking slowly, and as the words came out, his temperament became calmer.

However, in just two sentences, this person transformed from a ferocious beast that was ready to devour its prey into a gentle and harmless young man.

The strong sense of danger that An Jiu had just felt disappeared completely, as if it was just an illusion. The man in front of her was obviously gentle and upright. Even though she couldn't see his face clearly, just hearing his voice made her feel that he was a gentleman like the bright moon and the fresh breeze.

If it were an ordinary person, he might have been deceived.

But Anjiu didn't believe it.

Even though she was kidnapped by the flower thief, An Jiu always remained calm. She clearly remembered the look in the eyes of the man in white when he first appeared, which was freezing cold.

There must be something wrong with this man in white, he definitely knows her!

At this moment, an electronic voice sounded in Anjiu's mind: [The system has detected a target, do you want to enable the favorability? ]

Anjiu: pupil, hole, earth, earthquake.

The man in white walked towards her step by step, his voice soft and caring: "Don't be afraid, girl, the villain has been subdued by me..."

An Jiu couldn't help but step back, as if there was a flood or a beast ahead. Then, she stopped again under the suspicious gaze of the man in white.

With tears in her eyes, she lowered her head and said in a trembling voice, "I, I'm a little scared."

The man in white walked up to her and kicked the flower thief lying on the ground, whose life or death was unknown, far away. Then he sat down not too far from An Jiu and said softly, "Don't be afraid, I will be here with you, young lady. It's late at night, and it's raining and windy outside. It's inconvenient to walk. Someone will come tomorrow morning, and you will be safe then."

An Jiu responded in a muffled voice, buried his face in his knees, and curled up in the corner, looking extremely frightened.

The man in white didn't care. It would be strange if a weak young lady wasn't afraid when encountering such a thing.

The girl was thin and slender, and she looked like a wounded kitten with her arms folded.

Her whole body was shaking imperceptibly, as if she was trying hard to suppress something. Maybe she was crying?

The man in white glanced over and spoke softly and soothingly, but his eyes were cold as ice.

"Don't worry, I'm here, nothing will happen..."

Little did he know that what An Jiu was trying hard to suppress was not crying, but the uncontrollable horror on her face.

"System, who do you say he is? Is this Pei Ji? How could Pei Ji stand up! Aren't his legs crippled?"

"Get out of here, you crappy system!!! How can I conquer you with this!!! Just let me die!!!"

An Jiu screamed inwardly, but the crappy system remained calm, repeating in a cold electronic voice: [Detected the target, do you want to enable the favorability? ]

An Jiu was going crazy. The useless system remained indifferent no matter how she poked it. She had no choice but to pinch her nose and said, "Open it quickly."

[Ding——The target of the strategy, Pei Ji, currently has a favorable impression of you of: -99. ]

Although he had been prepared, An Jiu still wished he could die on the spot.

Fortunately, she has a very good psychological quality and has experienced such an incredible thing as time travel, so she has become a little numb now.

The stimulation was too great, but An Jiu calmed down very quickly.

Her thoughts raced, taking in the plot of the book and the current situation in her brain. Countless clues came together as she unraveled them. After a quick brainstorm, An Jiu came to a horrifying conclusion.

Whether it is right or not, she still needs to confirm it.

She poked the system in her mind: "System, come out, I have something to ask you."

[Host, please ask. 】

An Jiu: "Do you know Pei Ji's date of birth?"

The system froze for a while before slowly reporting a string of dates.

Hearing the familiar date, An Jiu completely understood what was going on.

She has the memories of her original body, and the birth date of her original body in her memory is exactly the same as Pei Ji's.

The two of them were born on the same day of the same month of the same year!

Just this one clue is like a line that connects everything together.

An Jiu took a deep breath and asked again: "Why is Pei Ji here?"

This time the system responded quickly: [According to system detection, the plot of this world has experienced an unknown deviation. ]

An Jiu sneered: "Unknown offset?"

She was smart enough to guess where the problem was.

Pei Ji had never seen her before, so why did he have a 99% favorable impression of her the moment they met? It was as if he had known her for a long time.

Even though the plot hasn't started yet, Pei Ji can walk freely and even has martial arts skills.

All the evidence points in one direction: Pei Ji is reborn.

Since people have experienced traveling through books, rebirth is naturally not surprising.

An Jiu was very calm, even calmer than when she first crossed over, because she found that she seemed to have found a way to complete the task.

All problems are not a problem as long as there is a solution. This has always been Anjiu's life principle.

An Jiu silently curled his lips and asked, "System, do you know why Pei Ji came here?"

Without waiting for the system to answer, she chuckled and added, "Because I am his antidote."

An Jiu didn’t know when Pei Ji was reborn, but she guessed it should be not long ago because the footsteps of the man in white were very obvious when he walked over just now.

There is a rule in martial arts novels that the better the martial arts skills of the person, the lighter and silenter his steps are.

An Jiu slowly calmed down his thoughts and began to sort out his ideas.

For some unknown reason, Pei Ji was reborn.

In his previous life, Pei Ji had already obtained the secret manual of magical skills and probably knew it by heart. That's why he has only now healed his broken tendons and can start practicing martial arts again.

Now Pei Ji only has the deadly poison left in his body. In order to detoxify it, he will do everything he can.

The reason why he rushed to the ruined temple was probably because he was worried that the flower thief would take An Jiu's virginity.

Pei Ji was sensitive and suspicious, so he habitually kept everything in his own hands. Even if An Jiu was safe and sound in the plot, he would come over to check in person to make sure everything was on track.

He probably wanted to knock her out, but she discovered his tracks.

Afterwards, An Jiu's reaction made him change his mind.

The book says that to use the Gu Insect Twins, the woman must be willing. How can one make a woman willing to endure pain and sacrifice her life for him?

An Jiu said with certainty: "He wants to play a love game with me. He wants me to fall in love with him."

[If he uses the love poison on you, you will fall in love with him, so why bother? ]

This system, which was dull when doing serious work, has become very sensitive now.

An Jiu narrowed his eyes and smiled meaningfully: "Have you forgotten? He used the love poison on Lin Qingyan, but it lost its effect. Do you think he will be traumatized?"

system:【……】

"Okay, I don't have to worry about my safety from now on. Not only will he not let me die, he will also do everything he can to protect me." An Jiu licked the corner of her lips. In the darkness, her beautiful eyes were full of interest. "Since he wants to play with me, then I will play with him. Let's see who wins and who loses in the end."

Should I say it or not? She really likes this challenging game.

The shivering girl slowly stopped trembling, and seemed to have finally come back to her senses from her fright.

She carefully raised her face from her arms. In the deep night, her features could not be seen clearly. Only her tearful eyes reflected a light from somewhere, clear as water.

"My benefactor, I have no way of repaying you for saving my life today... I wonder where you live and what your name is. I will definitely come to visit you someday."

The girl's voice was soft, perhaps because she had just cried, and she choked with sobs while speaking.

She is timid and cute, and she attracts people's sympathy.

The man in white paused. He turned his back to the temple gate, his entire face hidden in the darkness. He was also wearing a mask, so no expression could be seen.

She just vaguely felt that he seemed to be sizing her up.

After a moment, the man said calmly, "I am just a wanderer, and the world is my home. I just did a little favor today, so you don't need to thank me. As for my name...you can call me Feiyi, young lady."

Fei Yi, isn’t that Pei?

An Jiu lowered his eyes, and before he could respond, he heard a system prompt: [Pei Ji's favorability towards you -1, currently -100. ]

An Jiu: "???"

Ok, got it.

The big villain doesn't like the pitiful little white rabbit.

After this, An Jiu could no longer pretend to be delicate.

She had been so nice before in order to save her life. Now that she knew she would not die for a while, Pei Ji had to pretend to coax her. At least before he found her twin, she would be alive and well. An Jiu felt relieved immediately.

As soon as I relax my mind, I feel cold all over.

This dilapidated temple had no shelter on all sides. It was early spring and there was a thunderstorm outside. From time to time, the wind blew in, bringing with it a gust of cold moisture from the spring night.

"Well," Anjiu sniffed, touched his cold arm, raised his chin habitually, and unconsciously added a bit of commanding tone, "Feiyi, I'm a little cold, can you please light a fire?"

Both An Jiu and his original body An Jiu were used to being served, so when they spoke, it always felt like they were giving orders.

The book said that Pei Ji hated An Jiu's spoiled daughter temper. Sure enough, as soon as she finished speaking, the system prompted that her favorability had dropped a little.

An Jiu was puzzled: "System, there is a -101 for this favorability? Isn't there a bottom line?"

[The maximum score for favorability is 100, and there is no limit on negative scores. 】

An Jiu was too tired to complain.

But don't think Pei Ji likes her. On the surface, he said in a gentle tone: "It is my negligence, but I didn't bring a fire-making kit. If the girl is cold, you might as well put on my outer robe."

Seeing the man taking off his outer robe, An Jiu suddenly felt secretly happy even though she clearly hated him to death in her heart but she had to pretend to be gentle and considerate.

What do you call this? This is the song of the liberated serfs!

Instead of conquering the second male lead, why not let the second male lead conquer her!
