Starting with a Breakup: Why Is the True Heiress My Possessive Ex? - Chapter 93
Xu Nian could faintly sense that she was ready to advance.
It was a strange sensation.
It felt as though an invisible restriction inside her had suddenly been lifted, leaving her entire body unusually relaxedâalmost more comfortable than spending an entire day being pampered by Su Qingya.
Ahem.
Perhaps her plan had succeeded, causing her Joy energy to surge once again and allowing her to break through the final barrier.
Once she realized what was happening, Xu Nian immediately told Su Qingya the good news.
Su Qingya was naturally delighted for her.
But the most important person to inform was Xiao Ge.
After all, Xu Nian would still need his assistance in obtaining a suitable two-star Joy core.
[Xiao Ge: You two really are monsters.]
[It hasn’t even been half a month since you became Fluxweavers, and you’re already both two-star.]
Leng Xiao sent over an emoji of an old man dribbling a basketball.
Xu Nian silently saved the emoji.
[Xiao Ge: Unfortunately, I haven’t prepared anything suitable for you yet. How about joining us on another mission? This time, stay on the front line and let me see what you can do. Then I’ll decide what kind of Joy core would suit you.]
[Xu Nian: Okay. Thank you, Captain.]
Xu Nian wasn’t particularly worried about the absorption process or the ritual.
The simulation had already shown that she could advance to two stars smoothly, without encountering any unexpected problems.
Still, she wasn’t going to become careless.
She needed to run a simulation every day to make sure her plan remained on track.
So…
It was time to check today’s mission.
[Today’s mission has been released: Appropriate couple games are also a way to cultivate feelings between couples. Please wear a sensual outfit and perform a dance in front of your girlfriend.]
“???”
MD Ă5!
Was this daily mission getting a little ridiculous?
Well…
That was simply how the system worked.
The missions were completely unpredictable.
Some were ridiculously easy.
Others were absurdly difficult.
A simple kiss one day could become a daring performance the next.
System! Can’t you keep the difficulty permanently at the level of a small kiss?
But what could Xu Nian do?
She had to complete it.
There was no turning back once the mission appeared.
And, more importantly…
She needed the simulation attempt.
So Xu Nian found an opportunity and changed into a particularly bold outfit.
Don’t ask why she had something like this.
She had borrowed the idea from those strange little comics and paired it with a long trench coat, covering herself completely.
Naturally, Xu Nian wasn’t going to walk straight up to Su Qingya like this.
Instead, she hid in her room and waited.
There was no way Su Qingya wouldn’t come looking for her.
Unless something unexpected happened, Su Qingya would always come find Xu Nian and stay by her side.
Sure enough…
Not long afterward, the door opened.
“Niannian, Mom is calling you downstairs.”
Su Qingya stopped.
The sight before her was clearly not what she had expected.
Xu Nian gave her an awkward, almost coy look.
“You… close the door first.”
“What about Mom?”
“Whatever she needs can wait.”
Su Qingya blinked in confusion.
But she obediently closed the door.
Xu Nian then checked the curtains, making sure they were completely shut, before quietly locking the door.
Then…
She removed the trench coat.
Such bold behavior naturally came with consequences.
Xu Nian was thoroughly teased for it.
Still…
At least the mission was completed.
After resting for a while, Xu Nian immediately began her simulation.
This simulation proceeded almost exactly like the previous one.
Other than an additional sequence where Xu Nian fought Fluxbeasts and gradually became stronger, very little had changed.
Lin Ye was still driven down the same path.
The dangerous phenomenon still spread across the entire city.
And Su Qingya still inexplicably developed an intense hostility toward Xu Nian, ultimately killing her before taking her own life.
Even having the clone act on behalf of the main body didn’t change the outcome.
The rewards were also relatively ordinary.
But…
Xu Nian noticed something.
The final part of the simulation didn’t seem to be targeting her.
She faintly sensed another possibility.
Hatred…
Hatred was also a pathway.
Why did this strange feeling resemble the ritual of someone cultivating the Hatred Path?
And a crisis capable of covering the entire city…
Could it really involve a Divine Realm Fluxweaver?
Perhaps tomorrow’s simulation would give her an opportunity to investigate this possibility and uncover some clues.
The good news was that Lin Ye would still be successfully transformed into a Fluxbeast.
That proved her current plan remained valid.
She could continue following it.
After today’s encounter with Lin Ye, Xu Nian had also gained a much deeper understanding of just how terrifying the Joy Path could be.
It could twist reality through drama itself.
It could turn laughter into a weapon.
And if a sufficiently powerful Joy Fluxweaver truly wanted to manipulate someone…
That person could become nothing more than a character in their performance.
The Joy Path can really stand up now.
After that, Xu Nian didn’t have much to do.
Her main body stayed with Su Qingya, waiting for the next monster-hunting mission.
Meanwhile, her clone continued working toward its goal of infiltrating Lin Ye’s inner circle.
Everything required patience.
And because of that…
Time passed surprisingly quickly.
Before Xu Nian knew it, another day had arrived.
She suddenly found herself pondering a philosophical question.
Have we actually lived through countless different days…
Or have we simply lived through the same day countless times?
Then Xu Nian remembered something.
Today’s mission had refreshed.
Perhaps that was enough to prove she was indeed moving through different days.
[Today’s mission has been released: Appropriate couple games are also a way to cultivate feelings between couples. Please wear a sensual outfit and perform a dance in front of your girlfriend.]
“???”
“No, bro!”
“Refresh it!”
Xu Nian stared at the mission.
Nothing happened.
“Why aren’t you refreshing?!”
What was the difference between this mission and yesterday’s?
At this rate…
Maybe she really was living through the same day over and over again.
And once again…
Xu Nian completed the mission.
And once again…
She was thoroughly embarrassed afterward.
When everything finally settled down, Xu Nian looked at Su Qingya with a slightly aggrieved expression.
“Qingya, next time, can I just dance while you watch?”
“Can you not make me pay such a heavy price every time?”
Su Qingya smiled.
“An endurance challenge?”
“That sounds interesting.”
“But since Niannian is deliberately tempting me like this…”
“How could I possibly resist?”
“If I could resist, then I’d hardly be worthy of calling myself a woman.”
Xu Nian was speechless.
She really hadn’t expected Su Qingya to say something like that.
Still…
There was technically nothing wrong with it.
Su Qingya was indeed a woman.
But then…
What about me?
Why do I always end up losing?
Never mind.
Simulation first.
[Ding~ Host has started a simulation.]
[Deducting one simulation attempt. Current remaining simulation attempts: 0.]
[Simulation beginning…]
[…]
[…]
Soon, a string of text appeared before Xu Nian.
She quickly skimmed through the first half.
It was almost identical to yesterday’s simulation.
Xu Nian initially relaxed.
Then her eyes focused on the final section.
That was the only part that had changed.
[You think things may end this way, but the sudden change catches you off guard. You realize that the subsequent crisis does not seem to originate from Lin Ye, but from something else. After all, the dangerous phenomenon covers the entire city, yet the sensation of suddenly appearing and then disappearing makes you wonder whether it is merely an illusion.]
[You faintly realize that this may be the leveling ritual of a Divine Realm Hatred-path Fluxweaver. Such a large-scale influence is unlikely to come from a Fluxbeast, especially since you have received no warning.]
[You are already prepared. Taking advantage of the brief moment before your girlfriend attacks you, you first confiscate her weapon and then pull her into a sudden kiss.]
