Chapter 2 - Host… you're the one that's very strange! (2)

The TV's volume was a bit too loud. Yue Xia got up and was about to get the remote control, but she suddenly felt a restraining force on her wrist, and her body uncontrollably fell backwards.

Yue Xia: "?!"

She suddenly had a bad and ridiculous premonition. She lowered her head to look. A handcuff tied her fair-skinned wrist to the bedpost. It was shiny and heavy. It definitely wasn't a toy.

Yue Xia: "..."

WTH?! So that's why he left like that! And he had definitely locked the door from the outside! No matter what, he shouldn't imprison her! What's going on?!

And yet, the system didn't give her time to breathe.

[The White Moonlight and the Red Rose's final score is 6.8. Common comments are: "accidentally read something unpleasant", "too melodramatic", "everyone's IQ has plummeted", "abusing the body and mind". From a developmental perspective, some of the plots are indeed inappropriate.]

[As a variable in the world, the host needs to advance the plot and polish the novel's setting. Please keep in mind that it's our joint responsibility to improve the quality of this novel.]

Yue Xia couldn't believe it. "It managed to get a final score of 6.8?"

By the end of the novel, such a large protagonist group couldn't put together a full set of organs. She even suspected that the author thought people were born with two kidneys for the sake of digging one out. What kind of readers would have such eccentric delusions about the human anatomy to be able to read this novel to the end?

The system's cold mechanical voice continued: [According to your character's settings, you're obsessed with Shi Qingyin almost to the point of insanity. To avoid the melodramatic plot of Jiang Shuyao miscarrying, and then miscarrying again, and again, the first novice task is released.]

Yue Xia held her breath.

[Go to the engagement party, cause trouble, and snatch the protagonist.]

Yue Xia: "?"

Did she mishear?

The system: [Time to begin.]

"I don't understand," Yue Xia said, "If the purpose is to stop the white moonlight and him from getting married, there are plenty of ways to do that without me appearing at their engagement party. Why do I have to go there and snatch someone?"

The system: [Host, please complete the task.]

Yue Xia: "Look at this handcuff. I don't dare to think about what will happen to me if I dare to go there."

[The handcuff has been unlocked. Please complete the task, host.]

Yue Xia lied down like a salted fish, absolutely resolute. "'m not going, no matter what you say."

"Zi". A painful current passed through her arm. She trembled. "?"

[Detected negative attitude. Punishment procedure initiated.] The system seriously said: [Please complete the task.]

"Do you think that threat will work on me?" Yue Xia bravely scoffed and resolutely said, "Keep going if you have the guts. If I'm scared, it'll count as me losing."

"Zi". The current increased by a lot. Even her butt hurt from the electrical shock.

The system: [Please complete the task.]

Yue Xia: "..."

"A capable woman can be flexible." Yue Xia mumbled, rolled out of bed, rubbed her butt, and began to assess which leg would break if she jumped from the balcony to the lawn. She didn't forget to bare her teeth and say, "System, you'll regret this."

The system pretended to not hear. After all, this was the system's first time meeting Yue Xia. It didn't know that Yue Xia would always be able to accomplish what she said.

***

Fifteen minutes later, Yue Xia, who was wearing a mask, stood outside the engagement party venue.

It had to be said that Shi Qingyin was really down-to-earth. She had been wondering how she would be able to find and slip her way into a wealthy family's engagement party. As a result, she didn't even need to look for the venue. Shi Qingyin and Jiang Shuyao's names were grandly displayed on a banner at the entrance of a hotel. He reduced a five-star hotel to an urban-rural boundary zone.

There were people rushing around. It was very lively.

"System," Yue Xia cautiously stood in the corner. Yue Qing must have already noticed that she was missing. "I don't have an invitation. How do I get in?"

The system's answer was succinct. "The same way you came out of your home."

Yue Xia: "..."

She recalled what had happened earlier when she entrusted her safety to the system. It was like acting out a martial arts scene. With the breeze blowing on her face, she swung from the fourth floor balcony to the lawn with a rope made of bedsheets. She hopped over a wall and nimbly judged over the fence. For the first time in her life, she felt like Tarzan.

The surveillance cameras faithfully recorded the whole process of her ape-like escape. Yue Xia didn't dare to imagine Yue Qing's expression when he saw the recording. It would probably be quite the marvelous sight.

There were many photos of the couple at the front of the venue. Yue Xia didn't carefully look at them along the way.

The system was finally willing to explain and provided her supplementary information. [Snatching someone is the most effective, most powerful, and fastest measure. Jiang Shuyao had a soft and warm personality. She's as kind as a little white flower. She'll easily accede if Shi Qingyin provides an explanation.]

[However, if you appear at their engagement party, you won't need to say anything. Anyone with a discerning eye will understand. With Jiang Shuyao's degree in wanting purity in a relationship, she would never marry a person like Shi Qingyin.]

Yue Xia imagined that scene. The appearance of the substitute and the white moonlight at the same time, and an engagement party when all eyes were on them. It seemed to be an extremely embarrassing thing for everyone present…

Her toes were already working. It was almost time.

Yue Xia lowered her eyes. Her thoughts were a mystery. Her pupils slightly sparkled. Difficult to detect cunningness had suddenly emerged.

At this moment, her eyes fell on a photo of the couple.

Yue Xia: "..."

She was abruptly silent for a moment before asking, "System, are you serious?"

She wasn't surprised by Shi Qingyin's appearance. He looked like a typical early stage domineering CEO, who would easily get jealous and then press a woman against the wall to kiss. The woman nestled up to him was elegant, exquisite, and outstanding. She looked utterly pitiful. But that wasn't the point. She and Yue Xia looked completely different from head to toe.

How could he see her as a substitute?! At least be honest about cheating. Why put on the pretense of deep affection? What a scheming, rotten man.

[...] The system's mechanical voice sounded as if it was forcing itself to say. [Your earlobes look exactly the same.]

Yue Xia: "?"

Even in her dreams, she would never expect to hear such an innovative answer. She could only say, "System, you're so strange."

There was only silence from the system.

Yue Xia halted in place and thought for a moment. As if she had figured something out, she raised her head and confidently said, "System, I have a brand new idea. It's better than snatching someone. I can guarantee 100% that doing this will avoid the plot of the white moonlight's miscarriage."

The system was curious. [Oh? Please say.]

"Since I can jump from the fourth floor to the ground floor without alerting anyone and come out unscathed, then with such an inhuman physique," Yue Xia quietly said, "I can enter the hvac duct and assassinate Shi Qingyin. Won't that solve things once and for all?"

The system: [... ?]

Host… you're the one that's very strange!
