"........."
Wang Yiyi's expression turned stiff, her eyes filled with terror as she looked at Qin Luo, who had walked up to her and was now regarding her as if she were some pitiful joke.
In an instant.
A sense of humiliation she hadn’t felt in years resurfaced in her heart.
For some reason, she still mustered the courage to scream, as if driven by frustration, regret, and sheer desperation: "Don’t look at me like that!"
"I want to live a normal life like everyone else!"
"I want to have friends too!"
"I want to fall in love! I want to wear beautiful new clothes!"
"But... but..."
Wang Yiyi's eyes gradually reddened, and her voice softened.
Drip, drip.
Tears streamed down her face as she lowered her head, choking back sobs: "But why does everyone bully me! Humiliate me! Even slander me!"
"Even my best friend wouldn’t believe me!"
As her words trailed off, Qin Luo slowly crouched down, his calm voice reaching Wang Yiyi’s ears: "So, because you’ve been drenched by the rain, you want to ruin someone else’s umbrella too?"
"You and I have no grudge between us, yet you tried to destroy me the same way those people did back then, didn’t you?"
Thud!
In that moment, Wang Yiyi’s heart clenched tightly. She stared at Qin Luo, tears streaming down her face, her mind blank.
The next second, she wailed: "I became like this because everyone was targeting me!!"
"If I had a normal family! A normal environment!"
"How could I have turned out like this!"
"Are you saying it’s all my fault?!?"
Before she could finish—
Slap!!
"Ugh—!"
Qin Luo slapped her across the face.
"Pathetic."
He smirked: "If it’s not your fault, then whose fault is it? Mine?"
"I don’t care how you ended up like this. If someone spreads rumors about me, I’ll deal with them directly!"
Little puppy! Time to clean up!
[Detected that the owner of the "Divine Charm System" has been mentally shattered by the master!! The Charm System is about to flee!]
[Using the master’s words!]
[Hmph! Trying to escape?!]
[...]
[...]
[Wuwu, don’t be like this, I’m just a poor little system... My name is Mei Mei... Can the new master treat me kindly... I really like masters who pamper Mei Mei...]
Qin Luo: ?
Did the system just gain sentience???
[(*^▽^*) Reporting to the master, it has been captured.]
[Special reward issued: Charm Eyes (Can charm others into becoming your puppets. The higher their affection, the higher the success rate.) Note: Failure will result in backlash!]
As the Divine Charm System was forcibly removed, Wang Yiyi’s appearance rapidly changed, becoming far less cute than before.
She curled up on the cold ground, covering her face, her mind completely blank.
I... was hit?
All these years...
Even before I got the system, I’ve never been hit!!
And... my power... it’s gone...
How could this...
Qin Luo didn’t care about her feelings. He snapped his fingers.
Snap!
The domain dissipated.
The people of Jiangcheng blinked, already accustomed to such scenes.
He looked up at the bright moonlight, took a deep breath, and smiled.
Three, two, one... appear!
"Qin Luo!"
Su Muwan rushed to the scene in a panic.
She nervously glanced at Qin Luo, then looked in surprise at the unknown woman lying on the ground, covering her face and muttering to herself.
"Qin Luo, are you okay?"
"You weren’t charmed into becoming a mindless puppet, were you?"
Su Muwan hurriedly ran up to Qin Luo, touching him here and there.
Finally, she breathed a sigh of relief.
Qin Luo, on the other hand, looked at her with amusement: "Miss, are you a puppy? The show’s already over and you’re just showing up now."
"Hmph! What do you know? I was helping you out big time at home!"
The "puppy" reference was to the law enforcement officers in Detective Conan who always arrived after the case was solved.
Su Muwan rolled her eyes and grabbed Qin Luo’s wrist. She looked around suspiciously—the place was a mess, as if a fierce battle had taken place.
"Qin Luo, where’s that little wench from headquarters? Did she try any dirty tricks on you?"
Little wench? Miss?
Wang Yiyi understood. She secretly glared at Su Muwan, her eyes growing increasingly venomous.
All of this!!
It’s all that wench’s doing, isn’t it!!
Damn it!
As expected of a Transcender! So cruel-hearted!
Wang Yiyi’s resentment burned fiercely. This time! I won’t let it end like this!
"When I find that little wench who spread rumors about you, I’ll make sure to cripple her and throw her into the ocean for the sharks!"
Wang Yiyi: !!
Qin Luo thought for a moment, then glanced at the shivering figure on the ground.
He smiled: "It’s already over. I believe she’ll turn over a new leaf."
"That’s good. By the way, Qin Luo, I made dinner for you."
"Oh? That’s rare. Does the young lady even know how to cook? It’s not just tomato chips, plain chips, or cucumber chips, is it?"
"Hehe!! You guessed it!"
"And as a reward for guessing correctly, I’ll allow you to feed me with your fingers!"
"?? That sounds a bit weird."
".........."
The two walked off into the distance.
Meanwhile, the venom in Wang Yiyi’s eyes gradually faded as she listened to the natural conversation between Qin Luo and Su Muwan. It turned to calmness, then to complexity.
She withdrew her gaze from Qin Luo and Su Muwan.
Pursing her lips, her eyes filled with unwillingness.
Su Muwan didn’t even suspect that Qin Luo might have done those things?
Why...
Why can you trust each other so completely?
Wang Yiyi clenched her teeth.
Thud!
She punched the ground.
I know I changed the moment I got the system.
But even so...
I... I also...
I long for all of this too.....
I think... it’s time to let go....
Swish!
After Qin Luo and Su Muwan left, a figure appeared beside Wang Yiyi. His face was covered, and two katana hung at his waist.
Wang Yiyi glanced at him, then looked away: "What? Here to laugh at me?"
"Not at all."
The man tossed a bank card at her and said coldly: "You’re no longer a Transcender, so you’ve been dismissed."
"This is your severance pay."
Wang Yiyi: "........"
Dammit!!
Qin Luo!! Su Muwan!!
I’ll never forgive you!
Never!!
