Chapter 194 Relief
The sun sets very quickly, and when the last ray of light disappears on the horizon, night falls. The hustle and bustle of the city gradually quiets down under the cover of night, and the lights come on and the neon lights flicker.

Tang Zhiyi looked at the fountain with a distracted gaze, Su Qinqin's last words lingering in his ears.

"When we first met."

When they first met, Su Qinqin had awakened the system and knew that she was the original heroine of this world, and that because of Tang Zhiyi's appearance, she had to compete with her for luck in order to get everything that belonged to her. But at that time, she did not notice anything unusual about Su Qinqin.

Tang Zhiyi's mind kept replaying every moment of her time with Su Qinqin. She didn't have much contact with her in this world. No, it's not that she didn't have much, but every time she showed up, Su Qinqin tried her best to reduce her presence. She had never even met the male protagonist Fu Linchuan who originally belonged to her. She had never even thought of competing for the fate of the female protagonist!
"But why?" Tang Zhiyi didn't understand, "You in this world don't even know me, why did you do this?"

When I opened my mouth again, my throat felt tight.

Su Qinqin was confused by the question and hesitated for a while before answering: "Because... Because I think that it was because of my appearance that your life was in crisis."

Tang Zhiyi was so angry at her self-righteousness that he laughed: "Before you met me, wasn't your life good?"

It was obviously my appearance that caused a crisis in her life.
"And, actually, I have met your male protagonist." Su Qinqin said again.

There was a hint of doubt in Tang Zhiyi's watery eyes.

"Soon after we first met, the man came to meet me."

Tang Zhiyi recalled the time when Fu Linchuan saw the surveillance footage of her meeting with Su Qinqin. That day, he asked her who Su Qinqin was. With his keenness, he immediately noticed that she was treating Su Qinqin differently, but she didn't give him an answer that day. Unexpectedly, he went to find her himself afterwards.

"Then he..." Tang Zhiyi was very worried that Fu Linchuan would hurt innocent people because of his strong possessiveness towards her.

Seeing what she was thinking, Su Qinqin shook her head.

"He didn't do anything to me, he just chatted with me for a while. He asked me what my relationship was, but at that time I didn't even know what my relationship was, so the conversation ended in nothing."

Tang Zhiyi breathed a sigh of relief.

"But I can feel that he loves you very much."

"He loves you very much, and you love him too. You two love each other and are the best couple. I shouldn't have separated you. He is your boyfriend, not mine."

Tang Zhiyi hesitated and said, "But you are the original heroine..."

Su Qinqin interrupted her: "Although the system told me that in the arranged story, he and I are a couple, but in my real life, he and I have no intersection."

"You are his mistress."

"You don't have to be bound by rules, and you don't have to worry about things that haven't happened. You deserve your happiness."

Su Qinqin's words were like a thunderbolt, suddenly appearing in Tang Zhiyi's mind, making her entanglement and guilt fade away a lot. The haze in Tang Zhiyi's heart was dispelled little by little.

She looked up at Su Qinqin, and as her vision became a little blurry, Su Qinqin suddenly approached and gave her a hug.

Her vision was completely blurred at that moment. From childhood to adulthood, she always disliked Su Qinqin for being stupid. Because in her opinion, Su Qinqin always used her self-righteous kindness to constantly tolerate this malicious world, without asking for results or rewards. Even if she found out that her kindness was taken advantage of, she would still continue to extend her kindness next time.

When she first met Su Qinqin in this world, because of the system's task, she always told herself that the Su Qinqin in this world was not the same person as the one who grew up with her. In order to make herself more ruthless and get what she wanted, she didn't pay too much attention to Su Qinqin's affairs, and tried her best to treat her as a stranger who had nothing to do with her. But even so, she still couldn't really do anything to Su Qinqin in this world. She didn't understand why before, but now, she understands.

Because the Su Qinqin in these two worlds is essentially the same person.

They were all full of kindness and tolerance, as if kindness was something that was engraved in their bones, or something that was taken for granted. Therefore, when they first met, even though Su Qinqin knew that the outcome between them was a life-and-death struggle, she never thought of hurting someone who she thought was innocent.

Even at the cost of his own death.

Tang Zhiyi leaned his head on Su Qinqin's thin shoulders and spoke softly: "You always say that I am a good person, but I selfishly wanted to stay in this world by hurting you. I did those things for fame, wealth and power, and to improve my own luck. I competed with you... How can I be considered a good person like this?"

Su Qinqin disagreed: "No, you are wrong."

She said gently: "In the days I saw you, you have been working hard to live your life. You fought desperately for what you wanted and loved. We can all see that you are a person who never gives up."

"You have a strong vitality."

Su Qinqin smiled behind the mask, as if she was looking at those flying pigeons, feeling that it was very beautiful, with yearning and envy.

Tang Zhiyi's nose felt a little sour for a moment. The petite and honest girl in front of him seemed to gradually overlap with the figure of the woman at the door of the welfare home.

Obviously, her original intention of working so hard to increase her luck was to allow them to survive together.
"There's nothing wrong with wanting to live. There's nothing wrong with wanting to stay in this world and be with your loved ones. There's nothing wrong with you composing music to fulfill your dreams. There's nothing wrong with you taking back the property that belongs to your mother."

"These are things you are qualified to do. You don't have to consider me at all. Besides, I know you don't want to hurt me, whether it was when we first met or when you wanted to change the system task midway."

“You are very kind.”

Tang Zhiyi smiled bitterly.

Having lived two lives, she never thought of herself as a good person, but the person in front of her always felt how sincere, kind and beautiful she was.

"Moreover, you found me. Now, at this moment, you still want to save me. You are doing everything you can to save a stranger. You are not only kind, but also great."

"Then," Tang Zhiyi asked, "what if I didn't come to see you today?"

Su Qinqin's tone remained unchanged: "I said, you are not wrong."

"how about you?

Su Qinqin looked into the distance: "This is my fate, I am willing to accept it."

Tang Zhiyi closed his eyes, then opened them again: "But I don't want to."
