Chapter 156 Qin Yan's Story
Chapter 156 Qin Yan's Story
Qiao Xiao's emotions would be greatly reduced by the strategy system. Once again, she regained her emotions, but this time she was not so indifferent. However, she only shed a single tear, a tear without any emotion.
"Are we going to finish the storyline again? Let's get started."
System: "No, host. We have completed two-thirds of the fragment collection and the world has been largely restored. We do not need to complete the story in the fairy tale world."
Qiao Xiao: "Really?" Her eyes were dark, clearly she hadn't yet processed what had just happened.
System: "But host, there is one more player to conquer while completing the storyline."
Qiao Xiao: "Qin Yan?"
System: "Yes, host, Qin Yan's current favorability rating is 40. Warning: Qin Yan has a dual personality. Please be careful, as his life may be in danger at any time."
Qiao Xiao sneered: "Haven't I experienced enough? Why do you have to make things harder for me?"
System: "Host, are you tired?"
Qiao Xiao: "Tired? Why should I be tired? I'm not the one who's emotionally invested. At most, I just feel bored, bored that they're wasting their emotions on a block of wood."
After all, even if she went through so much, it only added up to four or five years. How could she have so many feelings? It's not like it's a lifetime.
Their story will never become a long one.
System: "Host..."
Qiao Xiao: "You don't need to say anything more... I only have one question: how do you handle the scene where Qin Yan mistakenly thought I had superpowers and appeared in his house out of nowhere?"
System: "The plot is ambiguous, Qin Yan won't ask."
Qiao Xiao: "Very good, this is the last fragment. It's time to put some emotion into it."
Upon hearing this, someone in front of the screen instantly shrank back.
System: "Feelings?"
Qiao Xiao: "Yes, I should put some emotion into it, otherwise it feels like I'm just keeping a pure heart for someone, but in my memory, there is no such person."
At the central command post, the commander overheard the entire conversation and said calmly, "Xiaoxiao is angry with me. She's sulking."
Although he said that, he still felt a little uneasy inside. His clenched fists betrayed his anxiety, which was the most obvious emotion revealed on his cold and stern face.
But then, he suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, "This... is for the best..."
When Qiao Xiao opened her eyes, she saw a familiar scene—her original apartment, but there were no other tenants; she was all alone.
"Good place."
System: "Host, the plot has now progressed to the point where you have successfully XX'd Lin Feng and then brought Qin Yan back to your apartment. Qin Yan is currently still an unregistered resident."
"What needs to be done?"
System: "The plot unfolds as follows: After Qin Yan loses his memory, his relationship with Lin Feng grows closer over time. During a major event (Lin Feng is also present), Qin Yan regains his memory and offers a million as a reward. However, she is not satisfied and recklessly harms Qin Yan's fiancée, who is involved in his business dealings. In the end, she dies tragically."
"How am I supposed to win him over with this storyline? Unless his love is cheap, and even 100% favorability isn't enough to sway him into marrying someone who's advantageous to him, then he's really something else," she chuckled softly.
System: "Host, Qin Yan has a dual personality. You only need to win over the one you know."
Qiao Xiao: "Okay, I understand."
As soon as she closed her eyes, she was back in the room, looking at the familiar scene as if she had never been there before.
Qiao Xiao: "Qin Yan has amnesia, but what about that part of her memory?"
System: “No.”
"How is he supposed to live? How can I help him?"
She pushed open the door and saw a large figure sitting on the sofa. His hair was a little messy and disheveled, and his back gave off an indescribable sense of fragility.
"Qin Yan?" she asked tentatively.
Upon hearing her voice, the man slowly turned his head and replied in a hoarse voice, "Yes."
His eyes were lifeless, like the pupils of an animal after it has been slaughtered.
Qiao Xiao: "Stay by my side, and I will help you solve all your problems."
Qin Yan's face was ashen, and he looked at her with trembling eyes, nodding slightly.
She walked up to him, keeping a distance between them, and said softly, "Shall I take you to see a doctor?"
Qin Yan asked in a hoarse voice, "Doctor?" His eyes flashed with a cold light. "I'm not sick, why should I see a doctor?"
He grabbed her by the neck with one hand, his eyes turning cold. "I am not Qin Yan!"
Qiao Xiao was once again overwhelmed by a feeling of suffocation. She stared indifferently at Qin Yan, thinking, "I was too hasty."
Seeing Qiao Xiao calmly accept her death without struggling, Qin Yan felt a chill run down his spine, as if he were in the dead of winter. His slender, bony hands suddenly lost all strength, and his sharp eyes narrowed sharply, as if he realized what he had done.
At this moment, Qiao Xiaoniang choked and collapsed to the ground, "Being strangled to death... Ugh... That was really awful..."
Qin Yan's legs gradually lost their support, and he slid off the edge of the sofa to the floor. Then he bent his knees and knelt down in an almost humble posture.
His body pressed against the ground as he crawled rapidly toward Qiao Xiao. His hands trembled in mid-air, and he kept repeating those words, his voice filled with deep regret: "I'm sorry... I'm sorry..."
Qiao Xiao slowly sat up, rubbing her neck which was red from being pinched, and looked at Qin Yan with a hint of inquiry in her eyes. "Then who exactly is he? Qin Yan! Who is he? Why is he in your body?" she asked knowingly.
Qin Yan lowered his head, not daring to look Qiao Xiao in the eye. "My dark side comes out whenever he suffers great pain or stimulation."
Qiao Xiao raised an eyebrow slightly, "Then why did he hurt me?"
Upon hearing this, Qin Yan's eyes turned crazed again. He looked at her with a cold smile, "You seem to be trying to control him and sow discord between us. I will not let you succeed." His voice was unusually calm and ruthless.
Qiao Xiao's eyes followed the man's change, and she questioned, "Control? Are you afraid you can't control him, huh? You're crazy!"
Qin Yan suddenly looked up. "Are you threatening me?"
Qiao Xiao suddenly laughed, "Threaten you? Do you think I need to? I just want Qin Yan to get better as soon as possible."
Qin Yan was clearly stunned for a moment, and the madness on his face gradually faded.
Qiao Xiao continued, "No matter which side of him you are, our goal is to ensure he lives a good life. If you keep losing control like this, it will be difficult to maintain balance between you two."
He retorted, "You'd tell him to live a good life? Only you would say that. Fine, I'll let you stay a few more days and see what changes that cripple will undergo because of your influence?"
The system suddenly spoke up: "Host, this is a good opportunity to change his feelings towards you."
Qiao Xiao coldly replied, "He's not him. Now we need to find a way to get Qin Yan to appear, instead of this madman."
Qin Yan stared at Qiao Xiao's hostile gaze, only to see her ask, "When are you going to disappear?"
Qin Yan: "Aren't you hurtful to talk like that?"
Qiao Xiao retorted, "Are you even human? You don't even have an independent body."
Qin Yan's face darkened horribly upon hearing Qiao Xiao's words. Just then, Qin Yan's body suddenly began to tremble violently, as if he were engaged in a fierce internal struggle.
After a moment, Qin Yan's expression softened. He looked at Qiao Xiao with a confused expression and asked weakly, "Are you alright?"
Qiao Xiao was secretly delighted; it seemed Qin Yan had returned. She replied gently, "It's nothing, you were just feeling a little unwell."
Qin Yan looked at the red mark on Qiao Xiao's neck and seemed to guess something. He lowered his head in guilt.
At that very moment, a system notification sounded: "Host, Qin Yan's favorability towards you has increased to 50."
Qiao Xiao smiled slightly; things were finally making some progress.
