My name is Xu Qin. Starting when I was seven, I was controlled by something called the System.
[Excerpt]
The boy I'd woken up looked at me sleepily, then moved over to make room for me with practiced ease. Before turning off the light, he even remembered to pat my head and say, as he always did, "Don't be scared."
Back then, that boy probably had no idea how long those words would sustain me. He carried me through my difficult childhood, my painful middle school years, and the endless loneliness of living in a foreign country.
Every road I traveled held his footsteps and his shadow.
[Highlights]
1. Couple: Yan Qin.
2. A self-indulgent short story, written entirely in first person, with a somewhat depressing later section.
3. The heroine is self-aware but controlled by the System. She has no choice but to date the male lead, but she likes Meng Yanchen.
4. The male lead may be portrayed negatively, so fans of his should click away. The heroine has been repressed by the System for so long that she will go mad later on. Click away if you can't accept that.
Theme: Let's watch the stars together.
