Upcoming Book: The Top Scorer Teaches Me Functions
Shuangwu agreed to marry.
The powerful families of Shengjing were astonished. Everyone knew the legitimate daughter of the Vice Censor-in-Chief was a beautiful flower with thorns, alluring and radiant, yet fiery-tempered.
She had once declared that she would rather shave her head and become a nun than marry a prince and live like a canary in the deep palace.
But Liu Shuangwu only lowered her eyes, hiding all her anguish behind her thick lashes.
In her previous life, defying the imperial decree brought disaster upon her parents and dragged her elder brother down with them. She herself ended up in the pleasure quarters, where she was abused and trampled on.
In this life...
Liu Shuangwu looked into her parents' eyes, full of concern, and felt her nose sting.
"Mother, I'll marry him."
*
With her wedding approaching, Liu Shuangwu went boating to clear her mind and rescued the top scorer, who had died in her previous life.
He had passed the imperial examinations as a young man and was famous throughout Shengjing. He also had a radiant, moonlit elegance and a face as beautiful as jade, yet he was always spouting ideas she couldn't understand.
Liu Shuangwu studied The Lessons for Women, and he tossed her a book:
- How to Recognize PUA
Liu Shuangwu worked hard to learn household management and accounting, and he patiently taught her a bunch of baffling symbols.
Wait, why does this little stool (pi) never come to an end?
*
Xu Qingnian was a discarded System. His mission was to help his Host study hard and become a pillar of the nation.
Even after taking human form, his code contained only learning and progress.
Until the day he saw Liu Shuangwu take another man's hand and walk step by step toward the wedding hall.
He heard the cold numbers struggle to grow warm flesh and blood, and beneath the ever-regular functions, a heartbeat stirred with love.
This time, beyond the endless sequence of numbers, was the phrase: I love you.
