"You just ran away like that?"
"What? This isn't what you wanted? Let's go to the next world."
Qingyu's return to the system space was too sudden. The system was watching videos one second, and the next second she appeared in the space, casually picking up the sunflower seeds that the system had spent a fortune on and starting to crack them open...
The system was truly caught off guard. It had already accepted that Qingyu was just lazing around in that world, but it never expected that this thing would actually come back on its own.
After a long pause, with the sound of sunflower seeds popping incessantly in my ears, the system suddenly reacted, mechanically pulling out an enormous machine...
Qingyu paused in her eating of melon seeds, raising an eyebrow slightly. "Is this the malicious detection device you made?"
The system puffed out its chest, a smirk playing on its lips. "Let's see your settlement this time!"
As he spoke, the machine began to whir and spin, and one of the men stared intently at it—
[Ding—The malicious settlement in this world is indicated as—]
Congratulations! You got a zero!
Qingyu: “…”
system:"……"
An awkward silence filled the space. Qingyu, who was the first to react, smiled and said, "Your... machine is quite amusing."
The system, its entire sphere glowing red, snorted and said fiercely, "What are you laughing at? Look at your malice level, zero! Instead of laughing here, think about whether you've put in any effort!"
"I tried my best, but unfortunately I'm too charming..."
Qingyu smiled brightly. She wondered if it was just the system's imagination, but her face seemed to be getting even more rosy...
It scratched its head. "Do you know that malice is equivalent to your health? Without it, your body will become weaker and weaker."
That's why the system is so frustrated. As Goddess Baiyun said, either collect malicious data or find another way...
None of them have been accomplished yet!
"Who said that?" Qingyu's bright eyes flickered a few times. After coming out of the small world, she felt extremely comfortable and did not feel the "weakness" that the system had mentioned.
The system, with a bitter expression, remained silent and began to examine Qingyu's body. It was somewhat surprised to find that the latter's physical condition was actually quite good.
Then he cheered, "Your body is still going strong? You can probably last another world! You'd better follow the plot well in the next world!"
Then, taking advantage of this time, he could try to curry favor with System 250 and ask if there were any other solutions...
Speaking of plot holes, 250 is its predecessor...
"I understand." Qingyu smiled and obediently agreed, and then the next second, she was transported to a new world.
--------------
The auspicious time has arrived, and the magnificent hall shines with glory.
Today is Gu Qingyu's wedding day. The entire Gu family mansion is decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, and is filled with joy.
In her boudoir, Qingyu, dressed in a magnificent wedding gown and wearing a phoenix crown, with a face as beautiful as a peach blossom, looked at her reflection in the bronze mirror and couldn't help but tease herself.
"System, am I getting married right away? Does that mean I'm going to be stuck with a stinky man?"
With a rather disdainful tone, the system muttered, "What are you worried about? I'll give you the plot, you'll see."
Qingyu smoothed her hair. A group of maids surrounded her, busy dressing her up.
In an instant, a vast amount of memories flooded into her mind. Fortunately, Qingyu had already gotten used to it in the previous world, so she accepted it without changing her expression.
The original owner, Gu Qingyu, was the legitimate daughter of the Gu family. Unlike the previous world, the original owner did not have such a complicated background and had always been the apple of the Gu family's eye.
However, this was before the original owner got married. After getting married today, the original owner's lifelong sorrow began.
Xu Qi, the son of the Great General Who Protects the Nation, is already famous at a young age. He is the dream husband of countless young ladies and is today's groom.
At this point, Qingyu initially thought the male lead was this person, but as she read on, she was shocked again and again.
The male lead is actually Xu Qi's father, Xu Yushu?
Looking at their ages, Qingyu instantly understood. Xu Qi was merely Xu Yushu's adopted son, while the latter was the true General Who Protects the Nation, whose wealth and honor were all earned through the war years ago.
The female lead is Li Mingbao, the legitimate daughter of the Grand Tutor's family, who has been reborn.
"Rebirth? Does that mean you know the plot just like me?" Qingyu was hearing about rebirth for the first time and couldn't help but hesitate.
The reborn female protagonist is essentially a vengeful goddess. If she has any grudges, wouldn't she just have to stand there and take the beating?
"We originally sent you here to stand there and take the beating. Have you forgotten that we're the villainous female supporting characters, and we're bound to do all sorts of bad things?"
The system, as expected, saw Qingyu stroke her jade-like face and sigh, "I'm afraid of damaging my beautiful appearance."
System: "...If you keep being narcissistic, next time I'll find you an ugly monster."
Qingyu paused for a moment, then smiled at herself in the mirror. Her beauty, enough to topple kingdoms, blossomed like a flower, stunning the maids beside her.
After realizing what had happened, none of them dared to look up at anyone.
I feel like the young lady looks even prettier now.
"Okay, system, I won't do anything reckless." Qingyu coaxed the system in a sweet voice, and seeing the little ball turn red again, she was satisfied and continued watching the plot.
However, when she saw that the female lead had seduced Xu Qi in advance and then married Xu Yushu, even the thick-skinned Qingyu was a little confused.
"So this is... a case of father and son being involved together?"
After casually flipping through the female lead's memories of her previous life, Qingyu raised an eyebrow. It turned out that in her first life, the female lead loved someone she couldn't have and felt betrayed by Xu Qi. In this second life, she came directly to seek revenge.
Tsk, she really is a vengeful goddess.
Just as I finished reading this, I heard the matchmaker's laughter from outside, "The auspicious time has arrived, bride, come with me!"
The maidservant beside Qingyu quickly covered Qingyu's head with a red veil. Qingyu pulled off the veil, looked up, and asked, "Where is my mother?"
The maidservant looked flustered for a moment, then managed to explain, "Madam went to the front hall to entertain other guests."
This reason...
Qingyu stroked the red cloth in her hand; it was made of high-quality fabric, which showed the Gu family's care.
Since she dotes on her daughter so much, it's impossible that Gu's mother wouldn't come on her wedding day. But thinking about how Gu's mother was bedridden later in the story, Qingyu had a bad feeling.
Unfortunately, the time was not right, so she could only suppress her doubts and, with the help of her maid, slowly walk out of her boudoir.
At that time, Gu's father was already waiting outside the door. Qingyu's view was blocked, so she could not see Gu's father's expression. However, the original owner had deep feelings for her father. Just by getting close, Qingyu subconsciously reddened her eyes.
But when Gu's father saw his daughter, so beautiful and charming, she was getting married...
Overwhelmed with mixed feelings, I remained silent for a long time.
Finally, he could only say in a hoarse voice, "If you suffer any injustice in the future, come back..."
Qingyu pursed her red lips, feeling only bitterness at the corners of her mouth. After a long while, she nodded slightly.
Father Gu looked at the matchmaker beside him, who understood and quickly led Qingyu to the main hall.
The lobby was bustling with guests.
The groom, dressed in a red wedding suit, was handsome and dashing. Since the Gu family had no men, the Xu family, in order to show their importance to this marriage, sent Xu Qi to personally pick him up.
As Xu Qi stood there, surrounded by laughter and congratulations, he alone looked somewhat forced.
When he saw the matchmaker helping the person out, Xu Qi tensed up, pursed his lips tightly, and stepped forward with a serious expression.
"Qingyu, I've come to pick you up."
The cheerful, slightly deep male voice was exceptionally pleasant to hear, but Qingyu remained completely unmoved and didn't even offer a reply.
Xu Qi didn't think much of it and nodded slightly to signal the matchmaker to continue the next step of the process.
So, surrounded by the crowd, Qingyu walked out of the hall with Xu Qi.
At this moment, a bridal sedan chair had already been prepared outside. With the help of her maid, Qingyu sat in the sedan chair.
The groom, Xu Qi, rode a tall horse and led the wedding procession in a grand procession toward the bridal chamber.
Along the way, the air was filled with the sounds of gongs and drums, and the crackling of firecrackers, creating a lively and festive atmosphere.
People along the way stopped to watch, and there was a lot of discussion and excitement on both sides.
"The General's Mansion values the Gu family so much? Wasn't the Gu family supposed to be just commoners?"
"What do you know? Rumor has it that the Gu family saved the groom's life; isn't this repaying them with his body? Haha!"
"Don't you dare say anything out of the ordinary, or you'll lose your head!"
…………
The murmurs were quite loud, and the people in the group were more or less uncomfortable. Apart from Xu Qi on horseback, they seemed not to hear anything, and did not even turn around or smile once.
When the wedding procession finally arrived at the bridal chamber, Xu Qi finally managed a smile and stiffly approached the sedan chair.
Qingyu also received her first mission—
"Should I let Xu Qi carry me inside?"
Qingyu frowned slightly, somewhat dissatisfied.
