68. Chapter 68: Said I Wouldn't Get Attached, Yet I Fell In Anyway

#Luo Xixi Bullying Incident##Explosive#

An obscure marketing account suddenly released news that Luo Xixi had bullied classmates in the past, even attaching many photos of Luo Xixi from her student days, perming her hair, drinking, and entering adult clubs.

After this post was published, Luo Xixi, who had just become slightly popular due to a variety show, was immediately dragged into an even larger wave of discussion. The entire internet's opinion of Luo Xixi changed from the universally praised "little wilderness survival expert" to a universally reviled "delinquent girl" and "perpetrator."

【Host, this was all done by the male lead! It was the male lead who had people buy internet trolls because your popularity overshadowed the female lead, so he had his company's PR team smear you!】

After the Baby System investigated the truth, it immediately became indignant and said: 【This is completely wrong! Currently, the male lead's favorability toward the female lead is not enough for him to do so many things for her! Why would he persecute you like this? Could it be that the female lead and the others are using an External Cheat?】

Compared to the Baby System's indignation, Luo Xixi was much calmer.

Rather than saying this current trend is abnormal, it would be better to say this is the normal trajectory.

Luo Xixi never thought she could change her ending from the start; the reason she worked so hard to earn Starlight Value on the wilderness survival variety show was just to make her Baby System happy.

But Luo Xixi also had sufficient self-awareness. She knew very well that even if she worked hard, because she was merely Cannon Fodder, a single thought from the protagonists could reduce her efforts to ashes. Isn't this current situation proof of her point?

Because she didn't hold out hope from the beginning, Luo Xixi wasn't disappointed at all, nor was she very angry.

She even had the mood to comfort her Baby System, saying: 【Relax, Tong'er, according to the plot, I was supposed to be smeared online after the variety show anyway. Isn't this just the normal trajectory of the plot? Set your mind at ease. Didn't I tell you? The sooner you let go, the easier it is. Why are you still working so hard?】

【Host, are you not even a little bit unwilling?】

The Baby System said miserably: 【Clearly your Starlight Value had risen to 128 points, but now it's back to square one overnight.】

【Not at all! (⊙v⊙)】

Luo Xixi answered with a very good mindset.

Seeing this, the Baby System was a bit dumbfounded: 【Ah? Not even a little bit? (⊙_⊙?)】

【Not at all! (⊙v⊙)】

【...】

The Baby System's mindset collapsed a little, and it began to fall into self-doubt. Should it learn from its Host? As an AI, why is it now more anxious than the Host?

So envious of the Host's horizon-stable emotions. _(: з」∠)_

However.

The Baby System didn't know that although Luo Xixi said she didn't care at all, in reality, she still cared just a little bit.

She thought about her "black material" suddenly being posted online, causing a heated discussion across the entire internet. Now that the eldest brother and the other members of the Luo Family have seen those "black materials," what is their mood now?

Luo Xixi had said not to develop feelings for this group of NPCs.

If she always treated them as Cannon Fodder, then no matter how they treated her, she wouldn't care. But once she invested feelings, she would start to care about their thoughts.

For example, right now, Luo Xixi would think: if the eldest brother is affected by those "black materials," will he stop smiling at her as gently as before?

Will the hypocritical and tsundere third brother show her that look of hatred and disgust again, just like at the very beginning?

Will Mom and Dad also become cold?

Just thinking about it feels so annoying.

Luo Xixi lay on the bed, turned over, pressed the pillow against her head, and simply played the ostrich again, forcing herself not to think about what might happen later. Just let it be, whatever happens, happens.

At this moment, the happiest person was clearly Shiqing.

Happiness came too suddenly. Even though she had already returned home, she was still immersed in joy, unable to return to calm for a long time.

【Hahahaha... I really didn't expect it. That bitch Luo Xixi hasn't been arrogant for long, and now her Starlight Value has dropped directly to 0. She really deserves it! Wasn't she quite capable on the desert island? Flying and burrowing, I thought she was going to ascend to heaven! And the result? Isn't she back to square one overnight? And now her past black material has been exposed. I'm afraid the Luo Family will hate her to death now, hahaha...】

The Heartthrob System also didn't expect the scales of luck to tip in their favor so quickly, and the plot trend was steady and improving, singing all the way. Sure enough, it was too worried before!

【Host, this is all the male lead's credit. Thanks to him having people release Luo Xixi's black material, the situation could turn back in our favor. Moreover, I discovered that the male lead is especially biased toward you. Originally, according to the current Favorability Value the male lead has for you, it wasn't enough for him to do this much for you, but he still did it. This shows that he is now deeply captivated by your charm; for you, he can abandon any principle or bottom line.】

【Hahahaha~~~】

Hearing the Heartthrob System's analysis, Shiqing smiled even more brightly and said triumphantly: 【Isn't this a matter of course? I am the Heartthrob female lead. Isn't it normal for the male lead to love me so much that he loses his mind? It should be said that this is what fits the plot! So what if that damn Yan Yu helps Luo Xixi? As long as the male lead is on my side, I will always be invincible!】

【Yes, from now on, Host, you should focus on the male lead's route and capture the male lead. This way, our plot can be pushed to completion very quickly.】

【Got it~】

Shiqing agreed happily, then asked: 【Speaking of which, now that the bitch Luo Xixi's black material is flying all over the sky, how much has the Luo Family's Favorability Value toward her dropped? Tell me, let me be happy~】

A while ago, I don't know if it was a bug or if the other side was using an External Cheat, but the Luo Family acted like they were having a seizure; their Favorability Value toward Luo Xixi kept rising, and they even lowered their Favorability Value toward me! Now that Luo Xixi has had such big black material exposed, the Luo Family should finally start to loathe Luo Xixi, right?

Although for Shiqing now, the Luo Family are all just Cannon Fodder and no longer worth her attention.

But thinking about how the Cannon Fodder who should have revolved around her were treating another piece of Cannon Fodder with sincerity, Shiqing felt unhappy looking at it. She must see Luo Xixi and the Luo Family fall apart, and see this group of people end up with their family destroyed and lives ruined; otherwise, she won't be able to vent the hatred in her heart!

【Host, please wait a moment, I will check for you now.】

After the Heartthrob System checked the Baby System's Data Panel, it let out a sound of confusion, 【Huh?】

【What is it? System?】

Shiqing frowned.

The Heartthrob System replied: 【Host, the current Favorability Value the Luo Family has toward Luo Xixi is still remaining the same; there is no sign of it dropping.】

【What did you say!?】
