129. Chapter 129: You Are Nothing to Me

"Right! I thought of that too!"

Hearing Yan Yu mention the Heartthrob System, Luo Xixi said, "I also suspect that the Heartthrob System has someone backing it. My Tong'er originally tried to file an appeal to report the Heartthrob System for cheating, but the matter was directly blocked by its team leader. So that team leader must be in cahoots with the Heartthrob System; they might even be targeting my Tong'er!"

"It really is like that. Your system is no ordinary one either."

Yan Yu said gloomily.

"Not ordinary?" Luo Xixi was puzzled and said, "That can't be. Tong'er told me it's a Newborn System and this is its first time out on a mission. Among systems, it's just an obscure little rookie."

If it weren't for the fact that when she first arrived in this world, the Baby System cried even more miserably than she did, Luo Xixi wouldn't have had such a mental breakdown and just given up on everything.

"It is certainly not some obscure system..."

Yan Yu said meaningfully.

"What do you mean?"

Luo Xixi didn't understand again. She always felt that Yan Yu had many secrets. He even said he didn't have a system and didn't have any so-called missions, so how could he accomplish so many incredible things?

To return to the other side of the story.

Elsewhere.

Yan Yu suddenly brought Luo Xixi into his Small World. Sheng Tinglan was caught off guard and had no idea what had happened.

"Xixi! Xixi!!!"

Sheng Tinglan searched all around, but there was no sign of Luo Xixi at all.

She had been taken away suddenly.

No.

Not taken away.

She vanished!

Damn it!

How could that Qiyuan still possess such power? This is completely cheating!!

He had no choice but to unblock the Help You Reach the Peak of Life System from his filter list.

The Help You Reach the Peak of Life System, having reconnected with Sheng Tinglan, was about to be driven mad with anger. Its usually steady, mechanical voice carried obvious waves of fury, 【Host! This is a serious violation! You cannot unilaterally disconnect from the system, otherwise, it will cause the entire mission to fail completely! First warning! Please do not block your system!!】

But Sheng Tinglan couldn't care about that; he directly issued an order to the system: 【Luo Xixi is gone! That Yan Yu forcibly took her away! System, search for me right now and find Luo Xixi!!】

【...】

Although the Help You Reach the Peak of Life System was very angry, it also prioritized the mission. Hearing Sheng Tinglan say Luo Xixi was missing, it immediately activated search mode. However, after searching, it found no trace of Luo Xixi.

No results.

The system said to Sheng Tinglan, 【Host, I am very sorry, I cannot find Luo Xixi's whereabouts.】

【What did you say?!】

Sheng Tinglan was furious: 【Even you can't find her whereabouts? Where could Yan Yu have taken her? Could he have already taken her out of this world?】

The system replied, 【He should not have left this world yet, because if a Transmigrator leaves the Book World, it will be broadcast on the public screen. However, I have not found any relevant news yet, so they should still be here.】

【Then why can't you find her?】

【It might be the same as before; Yan Yu set up a shielding system to evade my search.】

【Then how can I find them?】

【You can purchase an item to activate Forced Access Mode, but it will cost 50 points.】

50 points was a significant amount, even for someone as point-rich as Sheng Tinglan. For someone like Luo Xixi who just gave up, she probably wouldn't even scrape together 10 points by the time the entire plot finished.

But for Sheng Tinglan right now, nothing was more important than Luo Xixi, so he said without hesitation: 【50 is 50, redeem it for me!】

【Received.】

The system purchased the item and said to Sheng Tinglan, 【The search requires time, please wait patiently, Host.】

【Make it as fast as possible!】

【Yes.】

Sheng Tinglan raked his hair in frustration. Because Luo Xixi was no longer here, he also walked quickly out of the teahouse.

And when Sheng Tinglan walked out the door, he saw a thin, frail figure standing right at the entrance. Who else could it be but Shiqing?

【...】

Seeing Shiqing, Sheng Tinglan paused.

At this moment, Shiqing's eyes were full of tears, and the rims of her eyes were mostly red. She looked incomparably sad and exceptionally distressed. Anyone who saw such a frail and aggrieved appearance would be unable to resist wanting to step forward to comfort her.

But Sheng Tinglan, who had already recognized Luo Xixi, had absolutely no need to deal with Shiqing anymore. His gaze was indifferent; he looked at Shiqing as if she were a stranger. He didn't even greet her and was about to leave directly.

!!!!

Seeing Sheng Tinglan's reaction, Shiqing's whole body stiffened. She thought that when the man saw her like this, he would at least feel a trace of pity and would at least explain to her why he did this. As it turned out, he didn't have the slightest reaction! Extremely heartless!

How could Shiqing accept this?

Her eyes turned red, and unwillingly, she ran up and grabbed Sheng Tinglan, gritting her teeth as she said, "Sheng Tinglan, why are you walking away? Shouldn't you give me an explanation for the current situation? Leaving me alone at the birthday banquet, what were you thinking? What do you want me to do alone?"

Sheng Tinglan coldly shook off Shiqing's hand: "I have nothing to say to you."

"Nothing to say to me?"

Hearing Sheng Tinglan say this, Shiqing's mental state almost shattered again.

She couldn't understand it at all. Clearly, everything was fine before; clearly, this man was the person in this world who was best to her. Wasn't he devoted entirely to her?

Why did he suddenly change?

No!

How could she let the man just walk away like this? What does this person take her, Shiqing, for?!

She is the heroine of this world!

She is the master of this world!!

No one should be able to defy her, absolutely not!

Luo Shiqing's expression began to turn frantic, her eyes somewhat bloodshot, as she grabbed the man's clothes once more and said hysterically, "Sheng Tinglan, what exactly is wrong with you? You were clearly helping me all along, so why have you changed ever since that bitch Luo Xixi came to assassinate you? Not only are you not looking for evidence to arrest her and bring her to justice, but tonight you even argued with Yan Yu over Luo Xixi. What exactly is your relationship?!"

"She is my lover."

Sheng Tinglan did not hide it at all, confessing directly in front of Luo Shiqing.

Upon hearing the word "lover" from Sheng Tinglan, Luo Shiqing was completely stunned; she took a few steps back with a look of shock and bewilderment, as if she could not believe her own ears.

"You, are you crazy? Luo Xixi is your lover?! Then what about me? Who am I to you?!"

Could it be that that bitch Luo Xixi used some kind of External Cheat on Sheng Tinglan, forcibly altering his mind? Otherwise, Luo Shiqing truly could not understand why Sheng Tinglan's attitude had undergone such a earth-shattering change.

A lover, at that!

Ridiculous!

Who was it that released the scandalous dirt on Luo Xixi back then, wanting to put her to death?

Has this man forgotten it all?!

Sheng Tinglan had always been cold to the point of cruelty toward those he did not care about; facing Luo Shiqing's questioning, he did not care in the least and said coldly, "To me, you are nothing. Do not pester me again in the future."

Having said that.

He stopped paying attention to Luo Shiqing and walked straight away.
