[The calculating True Person Chu x the cold young Demon Venerable Li]
Chu Chu died on the thirty-seventh version of a proposal for a client.
When she opened her eyes again, she had transmigrated into a cultivation novel and been bound to the “Demon Venerable Conquest System.”
The System said: Conquer the young Demon Venerable Li Mo and change the tragic ending of the original story, or your soul will be destroyed.
Chu Chu rolled up her sleeves. “If I can handle clients, what's a Demon Venerable to me?”
At their first meeting, she returned Li Mo's jade pendant, smiling as harmlessly as could be.
Li Mo stared at her coldly. “You'd better really be that harmless.”
Later, she discovered that this Demon Venerable, ruthless and decisive in public, was the very definition of saying one thing and meaning another.
Later, she found half a jade pendant and was swept into a flood of memories from ten thousand years ago...
The woman in white turned around. Her face was exactly the same as Chu Chu's.
It turned out that she had written the System herself and designed the missions herself.
Her transmigration was a game of strategy spanning countless ages, devised by her. She was the one and only mastermind behind it all.
And the System's mission was: Make him fall in love with you again, help him break through the Heavenly Dao's seal, and evade the heavenly punishment. Once the mission is complete, you will disappear.
Chu Chu smiled, tears falling. “When I carved my love for him into my soul back then... I must have loved him very much.”
Li Mo embraced her from behind, his voice trembling. “You designed everything, except for one thing: I would love you earlier, more deeply, and more crazily than you loved me.”
She laughed through her tears. “This time, we'll live together.”
“What is your name?”
“Li, as in dawn, Mo, as in a strange road.”
“Put them together, and it means: At dawn, on a strange road, I met you.”
The young man clutched the broken jade tightly.
