The Story of Rejecting My White Moonlight: When the beloved I've secretly admired shows up at my doorstep, soaked to the skin, Chen Lin naturally chooses to take good care of her~ A slightly melodramatic story.

If you're interested, please add them to your reading list~

?? Zhao Wangfu is an undocumented person. To survive, she has put her body up as collateral and works as a System all year round, with hardly any breaks, diligently and without complaint. Her goal is simple: earn back her body and get a permanent position at the company.

Her chance comes soon enough: she is sent into an S-rank book as a System. Once the mission is complete, the mainframe will provide everything she needs.

?The original story is a melodramatic love triangle. What Zhao Wangfu finds most baffling is that the White Moonlight, Shen Yanzhi, is perfectly normal in the early chapters, then suddenly seems possessed after a certain chapter. She actively seduces the female lead, who is the gong, so the substitute female lead, who is the shou, will donate a kidney to her, and then she mysteriously dies after getting engaged.

Who could read this plot and not ask, "What is wrong with this story?"

But for the bonus, Zhao Wangfu grits her teeth, enters the world, and prepares to get to work, only to discover that the world's breakdown is even worse than she imagined.

The story hasn't even started yet, and the substitute female lead is still an innocent, clueless college student. There's still time to fix everything.

Before she can even feel relieved, Zhao Wangfu panics when she discovers that her bound Host is inexplicably the White Moonlight who goes most off the rails later in the original story: Shen Yanzhi.

Before she can even mourn, Zhao Wangfu makes another shocking discovery: if the mission isn't completed, her System will be erased too...

Believing that where there's life there's hope, Zhao Wangfu watches the woman sitting on the sofa, her beautiful blue eyes gazing wistfully out the window, and wonders how likely it is that threats and bribes will get her to cooperate.

Only after the story officially begins does Zhao Wangfu realize she was worrying for nothing! Shen Yanzhi, her Host, is incredibly cooperative!

At work, she rigorously follows the System's required schedule of six in the morning to eleven at night, and reports her whereabouts at all times, letting Zhao Wangfu know where she is and what she's doing. She even thoughtfully installs a tracker to keep the System safe.

In daily life, she takes care of all the System's food, clothing, and other needs, looking after her so attentively that Zhao Wangfu has nothing to worry about and can focus entirely on outsmarting the intruders.

What's more, the thoughtful Shen Yanzhi suggests that they shouldn't be apart for too long, for the sake of the mission. It would make passing information back and forth difficult.

Her earnestness moves Zhao Wangfu so much that she almost hands her the Best Host of the Year award on the spot!

Until one day, the System realizes her missions seem to be getting stranger and stranger.

Mission Three: After the System takes human form, she must hold her Host while they rest. This will help the Host rest better and work harder to complete the mission.

Mission Seven: Listen to the Host's brokenhearted thoughts late at night and offer appropriate comfort. Getting to know the Host deeply will help the story progress.

Mission Nineteen: The Host's affection must reach ?#% within a week. Affection levels won't affect the story's direction, but they will #--#-#((#-_)

Mission Twenty: Don't leave me, don't leave me, don't leave me, don't leave me, don't leave me…

Shen Yanzhi reaches out to gather Zhao Wangfu's loose hair. Looking down at her slow-witted lover with a half-smile, she says, "Baby, you're so clever. You figured it out just a tiny bit earlier than I expected."

??

Before her memories fully awakened, Shen Yanzhi already knew that she was nothing but an NPC in a story, an ordinary NPC who could never escape her destined death, no matter what she did.

All she could do was watch helplessly as everything unfolded as planned.

Just as Shen Yanzhi was thinking of ending it all herself and returning to a quiet life, she became bound to a noisy System.

Greedy, fond of petty tricks, hot-tempered, always insisting that a System could never make a mistake, but easy to placate.

The System's arrival brought her the hope of life, and brought her... love...

??

?Before Zhao Wangfu could even figure out what kind of relationship she had with her Host, she somehow sped through every single thing that couples are supposed to do.

When she finally comes to her senses, Zhao Wangfu touches the bite mark on her neck and curses Shen Yanzhi for being a dog. Then she ducks into her room, muttering to herself that this is wrong, all wrong.

"What's wrong?" Shen Yanzhi pulls her out of the closet, happily breathing in the scent on Zhao Wangfu that matches her own. She lowers her head and rubs her tall nose against Zhao Wangfu's now-plump cheek. "Baby... do you really not want this?"

Zhao Wangfu shrinks back a little, then nuzzles Shen Yanzhi ingratiatingly, blinking obediently. "I do, I do. But tonight, can we... not do it in front of the bathroom mirror? It's so weird..."

Reader's Guide:

A mindless, sweet romance! Not a standard System story!

Everything serves the romance!!!

Melted Snow Meets Song

Song Xi is a notorious troublemaker known throughout the surrounding towns and villages.

Rowdy, bad grades, rebellious to the core, always teasing cats and dogs, and occasionally getting into fights.

There aren't many things Song Xi finds funny in life, but one is when a classmate she happened to rescue recently earnestly promised to pay her medical expenses.

Even funnier, this classmate is a famous model student at No. 1 High School.

And the person she hates most: Zhu Yuchen.

Why does she hate Zhu Yuchen? Song Xi has plenty to say about that.

Song Xi hates the way her mother looks at her as if she's beyond saving whenever she brings up Zhu Yuchen, the dance prodigy.

Song Xi hates how her homeroom teacher is always telling her to learn from Zhu Yuchen and stop giving her a headache.

Song Xi also hates how dazzling Zhu Yuchen looks onstage. It's blinding.

In short, she hates everything about Zhu Yuchen.

So even when Zhu Yuchen starts clinging to her, Song Xi has just one thought: annoying. So annoying.

How can someone have so little sense of boundaries that she keeps asking me to help her choose music and choreograph dances?

How can someone have so little sense of boundaries that she asks whether I want to apply to D City University of Technology, just because it's a direct high-speed rail ride from A City Drama Academy?

How can someone say so casually, right before going onstage, "When I win this award, will you share the honor with me?"

In the end, Song Xi is so fed up with Zhu Yuchen pestering her that she unwillingly learns how to massage, researches all sorts of dance student care tips, applies to the annoying D University, and takes the hand of that irritating girl, which is always cold.

Zhu Yuchen has always thought Song Xi is an awkward person, like a little puppy.

She is always looking at Zhu Yuchen with a pitiful expression.

Sometimes Zhu Yuchen hears Song Xi asking about her, and some time later she sees that Song Xi has bought the same books as her, or a pen from the same brand, a notebook, or other little things.

Sometimes she even hears Song Xi lamenting that she can't be as outstanding as Zhu Yuchen.

Zhu Yuchen thinks, Song Xi, why can't you ever see me?

But that's all right. Melted snow reveals pines; melted snow reveals Song.

Bonus Scene:

The seventh year of their relationship.

With overtime and business trips one after another, Song Xi forgets their anniversary. By the time she finally remembers, more than half a month has passed since the date recorded on her phone.

Realizing what she's done, Song Xi feels guilty and doesn't dare go into the house.

But then she thinks that work has already worn her out. If Zhu Yuchen still cares about this, that's too much.

Come to think of it, Zhu Yuchen doesn't seem to check up on her as much as before. These days, she just asks like clockwork whether Song Xi has eaten, when she's going to bed, and whether she'll be home soon.

As Song Xi thinks about it, she starts to feel that she missed their anniversary and Zhu Yuchen didn't remind her or make a fuss. It sounds like the sign their coworker mentioned, when a couple has grown distant and is about to break up.

The more Song Xi thinks about it, the colder her back feels. She stands helplessly by the door, holding back tears.

Zhu Yuchen is so annoying, always caring about these meaningless holidays and insisting they have sentimental value.

On her way home, Song Xi did buy a little something to make up for it, but she feels that a last-minute gift is nowhere near good enough for the pampered young lady inside...

Twenty minutes later, Zhu Yuchen comes home from work and scoops up her lover, who is curled up in the stairwell, sobbing miserably.

"Song Xi..."

Zhu Yuchen is just about to ask what's wrong when Song Xi, hiccupping through her tears, says fiercely, "Zhu Yuchen, I really hate you. Missing our anniversary was my fault, but please don't break up with me, okay? Please don't break up with me."

Hearing that, Zhu Yuchen understands. This queen of wild fantasies has already imagined the two of them breaking up hundreds of times.

What can she do?

Naturally, she patiently explains why she didn't remind Song Xi about their anniversary this time, then takes advantage of her lover being dazed from crying to enjoy a little feast, makes her feel so good that her tears flow somewhere else, and lets her fully experience the boundless love she has for her. -v-
