When Sheng Xingzhou was infected with corpse poison and lost consciousness, Sang Jiyue had a conversation with System Qisi. At that time, she was wondering why Qisi couldn't send Sheng Xingzhou home.
After all, he was already considered a dead man at that time.
At that time she had already realized that this world belonged to her, but not to Sheng Xingzhou.
Qi Si told her at the time that Sheng Xingzhou could only go home if they all had a happy ending.
At that time, Sang Jiyue was dismissive.
She is the villain in the story of Sang Huai and Yin Qiao. If they have a happy ending, then she will definitely not be able to have a happy ending.
The so-called happy ending for everyone simply meant that she had to make concessions.
Later, after being reborn again, Sang Jiyue communicated with Qisi again and got the same answer. At that time, she knew that Qisi had finally succeeded and she would indeed give in.
Sheng Xingzhou's journey to another world began with her and should end with her.
Sang Jiyue has told countless lies in her short life, but this time she will not go back on her word.
Because Sheng Xingzhou must go home.
The moment Sang Jiyue finished speaking, Qi Si's voice came into Sheng Xingzhou's mind. He ignored it, strode towards Sang Jiyue and pulled her to his side.
He seemed a little angry: "What you told me yesterday was just a prelude to everything today?"
"If I really didn't come back until the afternoon, would you really follow Sang Huai and leave?"
Sang Jiyue was calm: "This is the best ending."
"Ayue, you never need to put yourself in a difficult position. This is the reason why I came here." Sheng Xingzhou looked at Sang Huai, unable to hide his hostility.
Sang Jiyue frowned slightly: "Sheng Xingzhou, please stop interfering in my affairs. I don't want to..."
As she spoke, her voice paused slightly.
"Don't you want to lose me?" He seemed to laugh, then turned to Sang Huai and said, "Did you really think you weren't dead? Weren't you bitten by zombies into a pile of rotten flesh and barely alive?"
He was unable to return to Sang Jiyue's side, and Sang Huai would never appear in front of Sang Jiyue again. Without Sang Huai, Sang Jiyue would never be able to grow up healthy and safe.
As soon as Sheng Xingzhou finished speaking, everyone's eyes fell on him, especially Sang Jiyue. She was so surprised that she seemed as if she didn't recognize Sheng Xingzhou anymore.
Sheng Xingzhou met her clear, dark eyes and said calmly, "You shouldn't be the only ones who have that memory."
The moment he saw Yin Qiao, the supernatural power fluctuations on her body also affected Sheng Xingzhou. He, who was already involved in the game, also woke up.
He also understood that the "hypothesis" Sang Jiyue mentioned yesterday was a fact that had already happened.
Sang Jiyue and Yin Qiao were dissatisfied with the final outcome and started over again.
But Sheng Xingzhou felt that it was already a very good ending. He thought that he had completed the mission he came here for, and that was the most perfect ending.
Although he did not go home, he fell into eternal sleep at that moment.
Sang Jiyue didn't understand. She really didn't understand: "If you know, why don't you go home? Do you really want to die?"
"Ayue, don't you also know your ending? You didn't back down, so why should I?" Sheng Xingzhou didn't seem to care. He said, "My death is better than yours."
Sang Jiyue's face darkened completely.
Yin Qiao listened to their conversation and seemed to understand something. She looked at Sheng Xingzhou with a scrutinizing gaze and said, "Ayue, can I talk to Senior Sheng? I understand your thoughts."
Sang Jiyue didn't say anything, but she looked very angry and completely ignored Sheng Xingzhou.
Sheng Xingzhou stood still, looking at Sang Huai vigilantly.
Sang Huai snorted and kicked the dagger at his feet away. His eyes fell on Yin Qiao with a calm expression, as if there was no aggression at all.
Sang Jiyue turned around and went into the house.
Sang Huai nodded slightly to Yin Qiao and followed him into the house.
Just as Sheng Xingzhou was about to catch up with Sang Jiyue, Yin Qiao suddenly asked, "Senior Sheng Xingzhou, did you also meet Qi Si?"
Sheng Xingzhou: “…”
He put his raised foot down again.
"Sure enough..." Yin Qiao murmured. The clues from the past and what Sang Jiyue had just said about "going home" were connected at this moment. She guessed Sheng Xingzhou's origins.
Yin Qiao glanced up at the building not far away and saw Sang Jiyue lying on the railing of the terrace, staring at them without blinking.
Her gaze stayed on Sheng Xingzhou. After noticing Yin Qiao's gaze, she looked at Yin Qiao again and nodded with a firm expression.
Sang Jiyue asked Yin Qiao to persuade Sheng Xingzhou to leave.
She will also fulfill her promises and concessions.
This is the only thing Yin Qiao wants after resetting time and space countless times.
A dazed look appeared on Yin Qiao's pale face. She whispered, "Do you know our original story?"
In their original story, Sang Jiyue was a complete villain. She died in the seventh year of the apocalypse and was eaten by wild beasts.
Their story ended perfectly with Sang Jiyue's death. They seemed to have achieved a happy ending, but Yin Qiao thought of Sang Jiyue in countless midnight dreams.
They are good friends who grew up together and are also comrades struggling to survive in the apocalypse.
Later, because of Sang Huai, she and they fell apart.
At that time, Yin Qiao hated Sang Jiyue. She hated that Sang Jiyue only wanted to destroy her life all the time, and she hated that Sang Jiyue had such great hostility towards Sang Huai.
But after Sang Jiyue's death, Yin Qiao thought of Sang Jiyue more than once. This time she finally realized Sang Jiyue's pain and helplessness.
Endless guilt enveloped Yin Qiao. She couldn't step on Sang Jiyue's blood and tears to get the so-called happy ending, so she used her awakened time ability for the first time and reset time and space.
That was the first week.
The second round begins, and they return to the starting point. Yin Qiao has not yet awakened his superpowers, and has no memory of the first round. But this time, Sang Jiyue, who should have died in the beast's mouth, survived.
At that time, Yin Qiao also separated from Sang Huai and left their base. Three years later, Sang Jiyue came back and died together with the person she cared about in the most decisive way.
In desperation, Yin Qiao used his time ability for the second time.
Then comes their third week.
Because Sang Jiyue and Jiang Wangxi were too close to her at that time, they woke up first.
In the third round, the only variable was Sheng Xingzhou who was dragged over by Qisi.
Everything is different now. Sang Jiyue is no longer obsessed with being entangled with Sang Huai. She has chosen another life.
If only this were the end.
But Sang Huai later remembered everything. He also remembered that in the first round, they should have had a happy ending, but everything was ruined by Sang Jiyue.
Even Yin Qiao had to use her supernatural powers again and again for this, completely overdrawing her body, and all this was because of Sang Jiyue.
Sang Huai wanted to kill her.
In the end, he failed to achieve his wish and died together with Sheng Xingzhou.
In desperation, Yin Qiao used his supernatural power for the last time and ushered in their fourth round.
All of them woke up and knew what would happen to them if they insisted on going their own way.
At this time, Sang Jiyue chose to give in.
Sang Jiyue’s request is very simple. She just wants Sheng Xingzhou to leave, and she can fulfill the so-called perfect ending.
"This is the best outcome for all of us..." Yin Qiao's pale lips opened slightly, and his voice was very soft: "Compared to hatred, Ah Yue has something she wants to protect more. Sheng Xingzhou, it's time for you to go home."
Compared to death, leaving is the best ending.
…
Qi Si came to this world when Yin Qiao used her superpowers to restart time and space for the first time. Because Yin Qiao's behavior was too crazy, she gave up her happy ending just for a villain in her life, which caused countless incidents later.
Yin Qiao has only one goal, which is to change Sang Jiyue's fate.
Qi Si tried to stop it but to no avail, and could only watch the second round begin, watching Yin Qiao save Sang Jiyue, who was supposed to die, from the beast's mouth.
Qi Si wanted to make peace between Sang Jiyue and Sang Huai so that Yin Qiao could also reconcile with Sang Huai, but Sang Jiyue was too rebellious and even found him and crushed him.
Later, Qi Si didn't dare to provoke Sang Jiyue anymore. He listened to the advice of his predecessors and brought Sheng Xingzhou from another world, hoping to change Sang Jiyue's fate.
The results are gratifying. Sang Jiyue is finally about to let go of her hatred, but Sheng Xingzhou seems to have inherited Sang Jiyue's hatred and still wants to die with Sang Huai.
However, as long as Sang Jiyue is firm enough, Sheng Xingzhou will not be able to cause much trouble. So Qi Si took advantage of the time when Yin Qiao was persuading Sheng Xingzhou to communicate with Sang Jiyue and told her everything without reservation.
"You'd better really let go of your hatred, otherwise Yin Qiao will definitely not be able to withstand another restart of time and space."
Sang Jiyue lowered her eyes and said nothing.
After Qi Si finished speaking, he logged off and went to prepare to send Sheng Xingzhou away.
Suddenly, footsteps were heard behind him, and Sang Jiyue knew it was Sang Huai without turning around.
Sang Huai's eyes were always on Yin Qiao. He said, "If it's for Qiao Qiao, I can spare you."
"Yeah." Sang Jiyue responded listlessly. Her voice was soft, but it sounded cold and heartless. "Thank you, brother. We can still be like before."
Sang Huai frowned, a hint of annoyance flashed across his eyes, but in the end he said nothing.
Downstairs, Yin Qiao and Sheng Xingzhou had finished their conversation. Sheng Xingzhou looked up and saw Sang Jiyue lying on the terrace railing.
Their eyes met in mid-air.
Sang Jiyue saw the confusion in his eyes, but she didn't know what he was confused about. It was obvious that he knew everything now.
Sheng Xingzhou’s thoughts used to be easy to guess, not at all like they are now.
After a brief eye contact, Sheng Xingzhou went upstairs, while Sang Huai went downstairs to find Yin Qiao.
Sang Jiyue sat in the rocking chair on the terrace, watching Sheng Xingzhou walking towards her. For the first time in her life, she felt a little at a loss, not knowing what to say to him.
Maybe I should say goodbye to him.
Unexpectedly, Sheng Xingzhou squatted down in front of her and asked her, "Why?"
Sang Jiyue looked at him in confusion.
She thought Sheng Xingzhou would say goodbye to her directly.
"You want to make peace with Sang Huai, why do I have to leave?"
Sang Jiyue was stunned for a moment, then lowered her eyes and said almost heartlessly, "Because I want you to go home, and I don't want Qiao Qiao to use her supernatural powers again. Otherwise, Sang Huai and I will fight to the death."
It’s because of Sheng Xingzhou and also because of Yin Qiao.
Sang Jiyue didn't dare to gamble on the future. She had already lost Sheng Xingzhou once. If he stayed here any longer, no one could predict what would happen in the future. She couldn't tolerate it happening again.
Besides, this place doesn't belong to him.
"Don't you want me to stay?" Sheng Xingzhou looked into her clear, dark eyes, feeling frustrated. "If you didn't want me to stay, why did you ask me that question in the first place?"
When this matter was mentioned, Sang Jiyue's expression changed slightly: "You didn't answer me."
"Ayue, I'm sorry I didn't answer you right away. If I had promised you that I wouldn't leave, that would have been truly irresponsible. I've been thinking about this seriously, and later I wanted to tell you the answer—" He stared at Sang Jiyue and said word by word, "But you've already made the decision for me, so there's no need to listen to my answer, right?"
Sang Jiyue said after a long while: "I know, but why are you asking?"
Sheng Xingzhou just continued with his own words: "But you have to listen, I will not abandon you. Whether I go or stay, my choice is you."
"Because I like you."
"I like you very much."
He said, "So, I won't leave. Whether you want revenge or not, I won't leave."
Sang Jiyue didn't expect Sheng Xingzhou to be so stubborn. Yin Qiao had clearly told him everything, and her fate had changed. What reason did he have to stay?
"You have to go home, this place doesn't belong to you!" Sang Jiyue's expression was firm: "There is no need for you to stay here anymore!"
"Ayue, I know you won't want to leave me." Sheng Xingzhou held her cold fingers and said softly, "I also know that you want me to leave because you're not sure what the future will be like. You're afraid that I'll leave you again... But Ayue, you don't have to worry about that. I cherish the time we spend together, and what you're afraid of won't happen again."
Of course, unless Sang Huai wants to hurt Sang Jiyue again.
He would do anything for her.
Although there is no need to say this, it is his choice and not Sang Jiyue's burden.
"Since you understand everything, why don't you want to leave?!" Sang Jiyue's emotions began to waver. She pulled her hand away, stood up, and glared at Sheng Xingzhou: "I know you like me and treat me well, but Sheng Xingzhou, I've also said that all gifts in this world come at a price."
"You didn't ask for a price from me, but how can I just accept your kindness without saying a word?"
"You don't need to use these shackles to restrain yourself." Sheng Xingzhou held her shoulders and told her word by word: "You don't have to feel burdened. This is my choice. I like you, so I can do whatever I want."
"Admirers should be inferior to you."
"Didn't you do well in the past, Ayue?"
"I can't do that anymore!" Sang Jiyue said word by word, "I can't do that!"
Because her feelings towards Sheng Xingzhou had changed, she could no longer accept all his kindness as she did before.
"What's wrong with that, you..."
Sang Jiyue interrupted Sheng Xingzhou sharply, "If that's the case, why can't you treat this all as a journey to another world, or a game, like before? As long as you can change my fate, even if you pass the level, why can't you maintain this mentality? Why do you still want to stay here?"
This was indeed Sheng Xingzhou's initial mentality.
He was speechless for a moment.
"Sheng Xingzhou, if I'm not mistaken, in your world, you have a wealthy family and live in a peaceful world. You don't need to rush around all day like you do here. You can definitely have a better life."
"Your home is much better than here. You have to go home. You have to go home."
Sang Jiyue repeated over and over again: "I have no home anymore, but you still have one. You must go home."
The warm words brought back some bad memories for Sang Jiyue. She couldn't help but rub her eyes hard, until they turned red and tears filled the corners of her eyes. Her emotions were obviously broken.
"Did you hear that?" Her voice trembled uncontrollably. The violent emotional fluctuations made the dense pain in her body more obvious, and she could hardly stand.
Sang Jiyue was in a very bad state. Sheng Xingzhou opened his mouth several times but was unable to say anything to refute her.
Sang Jiyue didn't hear Sheng Xingzhou's rebuttal, and she gradually calmed down.
In Sheng Xingzhou's silence, Sang Jiyue stood on tiptoe and took the initiative to touch his lips, leaving a trace of cold wetness: "Go away."
Sheng Xingzhou didn't say anything. He held her down and turned the contact that was about to break apart into a long kiss.
Sang Jiyue tensed her body, raised and lowered her hands several times, but ultimately failed to push him away.
She also wanted to leave something behind.
For example, the throbbing at this moment.
