The moment I said, “I regret it,” time was forced to reload. But on the third reload, the System erased the wrong person, deleting the real “heroine.”
At one in the morning, I was sobbing over the tragedy novel Mr. Lu! No Regrets in Life until I could barely breathe, when the next moment I transmigrated into the heroine, Jiang Shuying. From the start, I was publicly dumped at my engagement banquet; in chapter two, I lost a kidney; in chapter three, I took the blame for a crime; and in chapter four, I was buried at sea. One hundred thousand miles of pure tragedy, with no escape.
I was bound to the “No Regrets” System: the moment I say “I regret it,” time reloads. After three reloads, I’ll be erased completely.
I thought this would be a simple escape scenario, but I soon discovered that every time I “defied fate,” the plot wrapped up in an even more horrifying way:
I bought critical illness insurance in advance, only for the kidney-loss scene to become “live heart extraction.”
I got a diving certificate to avoid being buried at sea, only to be locked in a vacuum fish tank instead.
I had the girl he adored sent to prison, but on the day she got out, she came to claim my life with my “biological” child.
Worst of all, Lu Zhinian, who was supposed to be cold and heartless, fell for me early in the third loop and whispered in his sleep every night, “This time, don’t leave me behind again.”
Before the fourth loop began, the System suddenly malfunctioned and displayed a red warning:
[Error! The original heroine, Jiang Shuying, has been erased. There is no script reference for the current world. Host must write your own ending.]
I stared at the unfamiliar face in the mirror. If I wasn’t Jiang Shuying, then who was I?
Lu Zhinian held the knife that had once cut his palm, pressed it to my throat, and smiled tenderly. “Darling, this is your 99th reload. Where do you think you can run this time?”
