My name is Xiang Xiaoyuan, and I transmigrated.
I transmigrated into the world of Lost You Forever and was bound to a conquest System called [Melting the Iceberg's Heart].
The System said my mission was to make the nine-lived Xiang Liu fall in love with me. If I failed, I would be trapped in this world forever, neither alive nor dead.
I laughed.
Who was Xiang Liu? The Great Wilderness's greatest iceberg, a military strategist for the Chenrong army, a nine-headed demon. He lived only for loyalty and gratitude, never leaving himself a way out. His heart was colder than the deepest sea and harder than black ice.
But I knew: he was the loneliest soul in this world.
He wasn't afraid of dying, because he had never believed he was worthy of love.
So I came.
When he refused to eat, I stood outside his tent all night under the lightning strikes and said, “It won't taste good once it's cold.” When he didn't ask my name, I waited seven days and seven nights for him to say those three syllables himself. When he was about to die on the battlefield, I used my own life to snatch him back from the hands of death.
When the System showed a 0% affection level, I didn't cry. I knew he wasn't heartless. He had simply never been truly loved.
Later, I kissed him for the first time while sharing breath beneath the sea. Later, he planted a love-binding parasite in me. Later, he took a fatal blow meant for me, risking his life to protect me.
And later still, I sent him down the path from which no one returned with my own hands, then knelt before fate and dragged him back.
The System asked me: Had I succeeded in winning him over?
I didn't know.
All I knew was that on the night before the decisive battle, he held my hand, said my name, and told me:
“No one in this world loves me. Now that you're here, that's enough.”
