Chapter 338: A Turn of Events
As the original heroine of this mission world, although Zhou Wanrou has lost the protection of luck, the system has said before that once Zhou Wanrou dies, her mission will be completed.
After the mission was over, Su Lingyu was not worried about whether she could continue to stay in this mission world.
She and the system had already studied this matter a long time ago, and it was possible.
However, the system may not be able to stay.
She was used to the system's company and was really reluctant to leave.
[Xiao Tongzi, you submitted an application to the Mastermind before, saying that you would always accompany me in this mission world. Did the Mastermind reply to your letter? ]
[Why is the main brain's processing speed so slow this time? 】
[When it comes to business, things get slow! ]
The system quickly comforted him, saying in a baby voice: [Host, don't worry, I'll take a look first.]
Su Lingyu suppressed his anxiety and said, "Yes."
At the same time, she was thinking of countermeasures in her mind.
If the mastermind did not respond for the time being, she would at least assure Zhou Wanrou that everything was "normal" to buy time.
Huo Yan heard the conversation between one person and one system. His sword-like brows were furrowed, and his calm phoenix eyes were filled with some thoughts. He soon came up with a solution.
Just now the system said that Zhou Wanrou had a sudden illness and could not survive tonight on her own. Does this mean that as long as someone intervenes and sends her to the hospital in time, Zhou Wanrou's life can be saved and she can continue to live as a "tool man"?
Regarding Zhou Wanrou's position, everyone who knew the situation, including Huo Yan, had the same opinion: She could suffer, but she had to live, and Su Lingyu could not be affected in the slightest because of her.
Huo Yan was just about to get up, planning to use the excuse that he had official business to take care of and contact the heavy prison as soon as possible to ask them to check on Zhou Wanrou's condition, when he heard Su Lingyu's voice again.
Su Lingyu also thought of the key to the problem: [Xiao Tongzi, I have a solution! ]
[You just said that Zhou Wanrou can't make it through tonight on her own... Does that mean that if I give her a rejuvenation pill, she will be able to make it through this time?]
[Can you even live peacefully until the end of your life? ]
Huo Yan stopped when he was about to stand up.
Give Zhou Wanrou the rejuvenation elixir so that she can live to the end of her life?
For ordinary people, dying of old age is a blessing, but for Zhou Wanrou, who is imprisoned in a heavy prison, doing heavy physical labor every day, and being bullied and squeezed out by other female prisoners... I'm afraid she would rather die?
The system said in a baby voice: [Wow! ]
[Oh yeah, why didn't I think of that? The host is really smart! ]
[But do we really need to use the rejuvenation pill? Using the rejuvenation pill on Zhou Wanrou is really a bargain for her...]
Su Lingyu didn't know, but there was no other way but to make do with a temporary solution.
She didn't want to take any risks until she was sure the system would survive.
Anyway, Zhou Wanrou would not be able to get any good out of her life and would just suffer. Thinking about it this way, it didn't seem to matter.
But at this moment, the system suddenly said: [Host, the main brain has replied to me! ]
Su Lingyu immediately asked: [How is it? ]
[What did the Mastermind say? Can you stay after the mission is over?]
The system's baby voice is full of joy: [Yes! ]
[The Mastermind gave me special approval! ]
Su Lingyu was overjoyed: [Really?]
[That means, no matter what Zhou Wanrou's fate is in the future, it will not affect us, right? ]
The system said happily: [That’s right! ]
Su Lingyu was completely relieved: [That's good.]
【Finally I feel relieved. 】
[When I think about the possibility of parting with you, I feel very uncomfortable. I even want Zhou Wanrou to live a better life.]
[But now, it doesn't matter. There's no need to give her the rejuvenation pill! ]
Su Lingyu breathed a sigh of relief, feeling as if a burden had been let go.
The system let out a happy laugh and said in a baby voice: [That’s right, the host and I will never be separated again! ]
Su Lingyu pursed her lips and smiled without refutation.
When she closes her eyes in this world, the system will leave and will no longer accompany her back to the real world. But for her, this lifelong fate is also fulfilled.
She is very content.
…
heavy prison.
In a solitary prison, Zhou Wanrou lay on the cold ground with a pale face, gasping for breath. The abnormal twitching of her limbs made her look crazy.
Her hair was disheveled and she struggled to raise her hands to brush her tangled weed-like hair, revealing a pair of confused and doubtful eyes. She tried hard to look through the narrow window of the prison at the world outside.
She just had a dream...
She dreamed that she was the heroine of a romance novel.
In the dream, she was cautious and took every step carefully, and finally broke up Su Lingyu and Huo Yan, and begged Huo Yan, who had no feelings at all, to marry her.
Although Huo Yan told her that he would only give her the identity of Mrs. Huo and they would never have a real husband-wife relationship for the rest of their lives, she didn't think it mattered.
What she wanted originally was just the identity of the headmaster's wife.
Although her marriage with Huo Yan existed in name only, who knew? Because she was good at putting on a show, to the outside world, they were even a model couple.
This dream came to an abrupt end when she felt the happiest.
Then, she woke up.
Comparing reality and dreams, Zhou Wanrou couldn't help feeling dazed.
Is this world really created by a novel?
She was originally the heroine of this novel world and should have had a life that everyone envied. But because of the arrival of the tasker Su Lingyu, her luck was taken away and she fell to this point?
Why is Gu Yanying so lucky? He was originally a villain who was destined to die a miserable death. Why was he able to avoid death just because Su Lingyu treated him differently?
However, was the dream she just had real or an illusion?
...Countless thoughts filled Zhou Wanrou's mind, and she gritted her teeth in hatred.
Looking back on her life, she hated her incompetent father and her watery mother, but if the dream was true, the person she hated the most was Su Lingyu!
If it weren’t for Su Lingyu, she would be the glamorous and beautiful team leader’s wife!
Even if her marriage to Huo Yan was fake, so what?
She only needs the glory and wealth that Huo Yan can give her. As for other happiness, there are naturally other men who can give it to her... There is never a shortage of charming men around her!
It’s all Su Lingyu, it’s all her!
If she had the chance, she would definitely kill him...
"Puff!" A mouthful of blood spurted out of Zhou Wanrou's mouth.
The thoughts in my mind came to an abrupt halt, and all the malicious thoughts fell silent.
Before she died, her last thought was just three words: unwilling.
But no matter how unwilling I am, this life has come to an end.
The smoke completely cleared.
…
Su Lingyu was the first to learn about Zhou Wanrou's death through the system.
However, the system also said another message.
[Host, I didn't expect that Zhou Wanrou's death had no impact on us, but it had something to do with Gu Yanying.]
