132. Chapter 132: Qiyuan, you don't like me, do you?

(⊙口⊙)！！！！

Although Luo Xixi had already anticipated that her Tong'er's identity was unusual, she never expected it to be unusual to this extent.

Good grief!

No more pretending, the cards are on the table: her Tong'er was originally from the highest level within the systems, a Chief System!

"Good heavens... seeing it act like a little moron all the time, I never thought its background was so grand... But with such a grand background, it still ended up becoming a Newborn System. I don't even know if I should say I'm lucky or unlucky..."

Luo Xixi pressed her head, struggling to digest this explosive amount of information, then glanced at Yan Yu and asked, "I just sorted things out; see if I'm right. You mentioned three Chief Systems just now: one is my Tong'er, one is the Chief System that helped you in secret and gave you power, and another is the Chief System that targets my Tong'er everywhere and even wanted to delete it. I suddenly have a melodramatic plot in mind—could there be some kind of romantic entanglement between systems involved here?"

After all, Tong'er had told her that the more advanced a system was, the more it would possess human nature in its thinking.

Once there is human nature, there will be selfish desires.

Hearing Luo Xixi's analysis, Yan Yu raised his eyebrows and said, "Although Mijia didn't explain the ins and outs to me in detail, I think you're right, Xixi!"

"Mijia?"

"That's the name of the Chief System that assisted me in secret. Low-level system names are all coded strings of letters and numbers, while high-level systems have their own names, and Chief Systems—the highest level—even more so."

"Oh, I see." Luo Xixi nodded and asked again, "What information did Mijia reveal to you?"

Yan Yu said, "He was once a Newborn System too, but he was very lucky and caught the eye of your Tong'er. Your Tong'er always valued him highly, helped him upgrade continuously, and in the end, even handed over its own data source to him. It was precisely because it gave away its most core data source that another Chief System found an opening and damaged it; otherwise, your Tong'er wouldn't have ended up becoming a Newborn System and meeting you."

After listening, Luo Xixi was a bit confused again. "When it comes down to it, Tong'er was backstabbed because it gave away its data source, right? That thing is very important to a system; in other words, it's equivalent to a human heart, isn't it? Why did Tong'er give such an important thing to Mijia?"

Could it be that even though it was once a Chief System, her Tong'er was still a little moron with a bad brain?

Hearing Luo Xixi ask this, Yan Yu blinked, revealing a look of ambiguous sentiment, and said, "Indeed, for a system to take out its own data source is no different from suicide. Systems naturally know the importance of the data source to them, so unless there are special circumstances, it's impossible to take it out."

"What kind of special circumstances?"

"Binding as life partners—in terms we can understand, that's marriage."

"What the hell?! Systems can get married? Do they have the 'tools' for it?"

Luo Xixi was shocked beyond measure.

Yan Yu: "..."

Sometimes he really wanted to say that this girl was truly capable of saying things that would shock the world.

He took a breath and patiently explained to Luo Xixi again, "I'm just using an analogy; it's equivalent to marriage! Of course, systems don't have 'tools'! After all, they are just a bunch of data when it comes down to it. However, perhaps the way the data is composed is different, so the attraction between systems is different. Anyway, your Tong'er just really liked Mijia, which is why it kept helping it upgrade and even wanted to bind as a life partner. And to bind as life partners, they need to take out their respective data sources to link them. It was because of this that your Tong'er was backstabbed."

"I get it!"

Luo Xixi clapped her hands, suddenly enlightened, and said, "That Mijia must be a spy sent by the hostile Chief System! He used a honey trap to bewitch my Tong'er, wanting to obtain Tong'er's data source to harm it!"

"You could say that."

Yan Yu shrugged and said, "After all, Mijia said he was born for your Tong'er; he was a system specifically manufactured to target its preferences. His mission was to obtain your Tong'er's data source and then hand it over to the hostile system."

"Heh..."

Luo Xixi gave a cold laugh, looking just like a mother-in-law eyeing a new son-in-law—no matter how she looked at him, he was an eyesore. She was suddenly full of malice toward Mijia and said, "Don't tell me that Mijia, after tricking my Tong'er out of its data source and handing it to the hostile Chief System, suddenly had a change of heart and wanted to save Tong'er, which is why he's secretly helping it now?"

Yan Yu blinked again.

Mijia hadn't explained this part so clearly to him, but he felt their Xixi had guessed correctly!

Seeing Yan Yu's reaction, Luo Xixi became even angrier. "Damn it! A late-coming deep affection is lighter than grass! It almost killed Tong'er, and only then did it think to save someone? What was it doing before? It didn't realize it earlier or later, but had to wait until Tong'er's data was destroyed to realize it actually quite liked Tong'er, right? Mijia is trash!!"

Seeing Luo Xixi's righteous indignation, Yan Yu patted her back to help her calm down and said, "This is their family business, why are you so angry? However, it is at least because of Mijia's change of heart that I gained this power and was able to see you again. So, to us, Mijia can be considered a benefactor, right? Don't be angry anymore."

Luo Xixi was furious when she heard this.

She nudged Yan Yu with her elbow, pushed him away, and said with disdain, "Get lost! A benefactor? Is there anyone who 'benefits' people like this? Didn't Mijia tell you to help Tong'er complete its mission smoothly? But look at you—you directly sabotaged my Tong'er and caused it to be taken away early. Can you have any sense of contract at all?"

Yan Yu said innocently, "I really wanted to respect the contract, but isn't this about you? This world is already a mess, with a bunch of Transmigrators, and the three of us even know each other's past-life identities. Can Shiqing not go crazy? Once the Headquarters discovers this, you will definitely be forcibly logged out and leave this world. The reason I agreed to help Mijia was to find you. If I helped him and caused you to disappear again, wouldn't I be putting the cart before the horse?"

Luo Xixi: "..."

That seems to make some sense...

But not much!

Luo Xixi's little face scrunched up, worried and stubborn, as she said, "I don't care. I can't just watch Tong'er get taken away and then watch it get destroyed."

"You won't be able to see it. It's being destroyed at Headquarters; where would you go to see it?"

Yan Yu said gloomily.

Upon hearing this, Luo Xixi was so angry her teeth itched, and she kicked Yan Yu with a side kick. "You have to argue with me to be happy, right?! Why are you so asking for a beating?"

Yan Yu took the kick without getting angry; instead, he smiled, looking just as cheeky and punchable as in his past life. But his expression suddenly turned serious, and he stared at Luo Xixi without blinking, saying, "I was wrong, okay? Anyway, as long as I can be with you, it's fine. As for who you want to help, as long as you're happy, I'll help you."

"Thump!"

Whether it was because Qiyuan's face in this life was so perfectly suited to Luo Xixi's aesthetic, or for some other reason, hearing the other party say this, Luo Xixi's heart suddenly skipped a beat.

A thought suddenly sprouted in Luo Xixi's mind.

She couldn't control herself and blurted out, "Qiyuan, you're doing so much for me—you don't like me, do you?"
