The atmosphere fell into silence, the moonlight poured onto the lake and also shone onto Shen Zhuo's clear glass eyes.
When Yu Xingwu met those eyes, she thought a lot.
The system was afraid that Yu Xingwu’s character would collapse, and if that happened, all the previous performances would be in vain!
Not only is the acting in vain, but if you say you don't like the villain, not only will you be punished, but how will you earn points next time?!
Without any points, he is destined to be ranked last in performance!
A gentleman can be killed but not humiliated. If he has no achievements, it is better to let him die!
Moreover, the plot direction of the host and Yu Zheng severing their father-daughter relationship has to be driven by the villain, which is simply killing two birds with one stone in terms of mission points. The host can't let down at such a critical moment!
So, he brainwashed himself first, and then brainwashed Yu Xingwu in all aspects.
"Host, listen to what this system says. Even if you agree to remarry the villain, it's nothing! Everything will just go back to the time before the marriage was broken off! Besides, Yu Zheng may not agree!"
"Besides, no matter what, the host has to maintain his persona and lick his ass, so there is actually no difference between canceling the engagement and not canceling the engagement! You have to chase after him anyway!"
"Even if the host agrees to renew the engagement with him now, nothing will change! The host can just continue to lick him as before. Does it make any difference?"
"The only difference is that the villain is probably attracted to the host, but whether he is attracted or not, doesn't the host have to lick him?"
"There is another possibility that is less likely. The villain is vindictive and hates Yu Zheng because he was severely injured and forced by him."
"The more Yu Zheng didn't want him to be with you, the more he wanted to be with you, so he put on a fake and real show. Of course, judging from the fact that he carved the jade pendant himself, this possibility is still very small."
"But for the host's consideration, this system should let the host know all the possibilities! The meat can be eaten, but the host's heart cannot be lost. We still have to complete the mission and go back!"
"In short, I just want to tell the host that even if I agree to remarry, it will only be a return to the past. The host doesn't need to worry too much! I don't want the host to like him!"
"Next, the host just needs to continue pretending to like him and lick him as before! At most, we can just pretend to be in a relationship!"
System: Hehe, this system is really smart! This way the host will have no worries! As for whether the villain treats her as a real lover or a fake lover, he has no control over it.
If the villain really likes the host, then he should use his abilities to make the host, who has no romantic instincts and is allergic to romance, fall in love with him!
If there is an extremely low probability that the villain is acting, then it would be better for both of them to act separately and pursue their own goals.
Yu Xingwu was stunned and couldn't find any words to refute the system.
Just as the system said, even if she and Shen Zhuo re-engaged, it would just be a return to the time before the broken engagement, and it seemed that there was no difference from before the broken engagement.
As for the extremely small possibility mentioned by the system, she also thought about it.
If Shen Zhuo is really playing her, the reason is not only to play her in reverse using the same method, but also to go against Yu Zheng.
Yu Zheng broke his ribs and forced him to cancel the engagement, so he stayed with her. This was indeed the most effective way to take revenge on Yu Zheng and make him angry to death.
She actually hoped that he didn't really like her, but was acting like this just to go against Yu Zheng, which was consistent with his vengeful character.
Thinking of this, and looking at the exquisite and charming face in front of her, she suddenly remembered a saying - the more beautiful something is, the more poisonous it is.
She is not a love-brained woman and she cannot develop a love-brained woman, otherwise her mother would not always force her to go on blind dates and would burn incense and pray for her to develop a love-brained woman.
Shen Zhuo is good-looking, and his appearance suits her aesthetic standards as a beauty lover. He is also very seductive now, and she also wants to scream.
But she would not ignore the tiny possibility just because she saw the jade pendant he carved and felt his strong heartbeat.
Whether he really likes her or he wants revenge because Yu Zheng beat him and forced him to break off the engagement, her only choice is to maintain her persona, for the sake of points, for the mission, and for returning home.
As for losing her heart, sorry, even her own mom said she didn’t have that. She’s probably only suitable to be a single dog and support other people’s CPs.
So, the system's bad idea is not a bad idea.
By the time she replies that she likes him and agrees to renew the engagement with him and go back to the time before the cancellation of the engagement, I'm afraid her points will be maxed out.
Yu Zheng wanted her to get engaged to Mo Jia, but she chose to propose to renegotiate the engagement with Shen Zhuo at this time. Yu Zheng would probably be furious, and she could just use this as an opportunity to have a falling out with Yu Zheng.
Otherwise, even though she insulted Yu Yuefu so much today, Yu Zheng didn't scold her. The task of severing the relationship would be difficult to accomplish.
Well, it's another day of working hard for missions and points, and also to keep my character intact.
But she still wanted to explain it to him secretly without destroying her character - whether he was attracted to her or was just pretending to be her, they would not be able to stay together for long.
He was so smart that he could tell that she didn't really like him. He would also be able to hear the meaning behind her words and know that even if they re-engaged, she would still be pretending to be him.
"Brother, I like you, so how can I pretend you've never been here? But I'm afraid my love won't last long."
"If my liking for you is fake, and if one day I no longer like you, please don't blame me."
[Don't strike me with lightning! I'm talking about what if, what if! I'm not ruining my character! ]
System: "... Points +200! The host knows how to take advantage of loopholes..."
Shen Zhuo lowered his eyes, he already knew that she didn't like him, so how could they last long? It was all his wishful thinking and self-deception, so how could he blame her.
The only thing to blame is that he failed to make her like him.
"If one day you tell me in person that you don't like me anymore, you can leave."
Once she says she doesn't like him, she will be punished by heavenly thunder. That will be the time when she makes up her mind to abandon him. Even if he wants to keep her, how can he do that?
How can fake love last long?
But he was very happy that she could say that she liked him and was willing to continue acting with him.
Yu Xingwu didn't expect Shen Zhuo to be so easy to talk to, and she could tell that he must have understood the meaning of her words.
It also meant that their relationship had returned to what it was before, only this time, there was no marriage certificate, no engagement token, only the dragon and phoenix jade pendant that he had personally carved.
As for her, she just needs to continue to be his bootlicker as before. Everything is just as the system said, nothing has changed.
The only difference is that he might really be attracted to her.
But don't panic, no matter if she is really moved or just acting, in the next plot, she will do evil things to make everyone tired of her and eventually leave here.
Yu Xingwu gathered her thoughts, switched to dog-licking mode in a second, and gave Shen Zhuo a sweet smile: "Brother, let's go back then? After class tomorrow, I'll go tell my dad that I want to renegotiate my engagement with you!"
