Feng Guang’s heartbeat quickened. After a long moment, she finally whispered, “Okay,” as though if she spoke any louder, it would shatter the beautiful scene before her.
She truly couldn’t understand—why… why did this man’s charm suddenly feel so overwhelming, so powerful that she could hardly control herself?
On the ride home, her mind kept circling back to that question. But then she’d recall the way Han Chen had stood by the hospital window, quietly smiling at her as she left, and her heart would pound even harder.
“System-kun… I think I’ve been won over.”
“Yeah, he didn’t even do anything, and you’re already conquered.”
Feng Guang held her face in her hands. “What do you mean he didn’t do anything? Didn’t you see how gently he smiled at me? Twice?”
The system suddenly remarked, “His charm really is undeniable.”
And for her, he did seem to have an irresistible pull. Yes, he had always been powerfully attractive to her—it was something ingrained in her bones, impossible to change.
In full girlish giddiness, Feng Guang sighed. “I used to think he was mean-spirited, but maybe I was wrong. Maybe that was just a protective shell… kind of like you, System-kun.”
“Like me?”
“Of course. You never show yourself to me. Other than your voice, I don’t know anything about you. And honestly, I don’t believe you have a body. Sometimes I wonder if you’re just a computer—or maybe just a string of code.”
“Your guesses… could all be true.”
“See? Another vague answer. I can’t even remember much about the very first time we met anymore, but I feel like you’ve changed since then. You sound more human now. When you talk to me, your voice actually has emotion—it’s not so cold anymore.”
“Is that so?”
“See! You even used a questioning tone just now.” Feng Guang laughed. “System-kun, have I ever told you that your voice is really nice?”
“No.”
“Well, now I have. So now you know.”
“Yes. Now I know.”
Then Feng Guang sighed. “But thinking about how, once I gather enough points and go back, you’ll disappear… I can’t help but feel a little reluctant. After all, we’ve been bound together for so long.”
“Reluctant… heh.”
Feng Guang sat up, wide-eyed. “System-kun, did you just laugh!?”
No wonder she was so shocked—because in all her memory, she had never once heard him laugh.
But then it was as if he had vanished, refusing to respond again.
“Ugh, seriously…” Feng Guang muttered. It was always like this. Whenever she tried to pry something out of him, he’d vanish. With a sigh, she forced herself to think about the real problem—how she was going to face her father.
Sure enough, when she got home, she was scolded again. Xia Chao wasn’t upset that she hadn’t gone to school—studying was optional for her anyway. Whether by Xia Chao or Wang Ci overseas, everything in her life would always be carefully arranged. No, what made him furious was that she hadn’t answered his calls all day.
She was grounded for the weekend. But then, after one phone call, Xia Chao suddenly changed his mind and said she could go out on Saturday and Sunday.
She didn’t need to guess who had called. What puzzled her was how Han Chen had managed to make her father change his mind so quickly. Still, Feng Guang didn’t forget her promise. On Saturday morning, she went to the flower shop and chose the best pot of baby’s breath she could find.
Not far from the shop, at a street corner, Mu Jin spotted her. She let out a surprised “Huh? Isn’t that our new classmate?”
“It’s her.”
The boy standing next to Mu Jin glanced toward the flower shop, then pulled something out of his backpack.
Mu Jin frowned. “Wait… is that the God of Wealth?”
“She dropped it by accident,” the boy said with a faint smile. “Perfect chance to give it back to her.”
