"I agreed to the system's request."

"So, before I turned twenty, the system began training me, from smiling to posture, it wanted to turn me into the gentlest person."

Shi Guijia remained silent.

If there were still wine in the gourd, she would definitely get herself completely drunk.

Gentleness, she hates gentleness.

Ever since she awakened her memories from Zhi Zixun, she has hated Wenrou.

"...That's disgusting."

"Yes, it's a pity, I can't change back now."

She smiled helplessly.

“I’ve been like this ever since I met him, and I can’t change it.”

Face everyone with a gentle smile, but hide your sorrows deep inside.

“When I first met him, I was afraid of him and rejected him because he was a villain.”

"But in reality, I discovered that he wasn't what the system described."

"He also has a kind and warm-hearted side."

"If only I had been more resolute back then..."

If we had been more determined to handle the situation using our own methods, instead of blindly trusting the system, wouldn't the outcome have been different?

The girl named Zhi Zixun lowered her eyes, her flaxen bangs covering her forehead and hiding her sorrow.

"...Actually, I am also a weak person."

"If only, if only I could be a little more resolute..."

The boy took her to many places.

They went to Lingxue Peak to watch the sunrise, and also went to Tianquan Mountain Villa to soak in the hot springs. Finally, they came to the wishing pool at Shenlong Lake.

"Make a sincere wish here, and the dragon will bless the wisher."

The boy smiled and said, "Come on, let's make a wish together?"

The girl that year was preoccupied with her mission and did not notice the love hidden in the boy's words.

She stood nervously in front of the wishing well, closed her eyes, but what she was thinking about was the final step of the plan.

The boy stood beside her, his eyes closed in reverence.

What wish did the boy make back then?

The girl didn't know; all she could hear was the boy's heart beating very fast. Unlike her own gradually cooling heart, his heart was beating passionately.

The girl touched her heart, feeling the coldness spreading to her limbs.

So, I'm actually such a cold-hearted person?

The girl lowered her eyes; the threads of fate bound her tightly, tearing her heart apart piece by piece until only emptiness remained.

"my heart……"

The final moment arrived. Her soul stood in the sky, watching the boy's heart-wrenching anguish, her face expressionless.

The system surrounded her, celebrating her victory, but she looked up at the bright sun and felt her soul almost melting away.

"Young man, what wish did you make?" she murmured to herself.

Unfortunately, no one could answer her.

From their first meeting, she fell into a trap called deception, constantly using her gentle persona to influence the other person, ultimately leading them into the abyss.

What is this...?

Is this considered saving the world?

She regretted it, regretted her weakness. If she had firmly followed her plan, she might have been able to find a way to have the best of both worlds.

but……

There's no going back now.

"Your mission is complete. Come, tell me your wish. Anything is fine. I will arrange for you to be reincarnated into another world. Whether you are a little princess who is loved by your parents or an empress who rises against all odds, whatever identity you want and whatever life you want to experience is fine."

In a void world, the system asks the girl for her last wish.

The girl did not answer; she simply stood there, feeling the emotions in her heart gradually dissipate into nothingness.

"...Where am I?"

"Here? This is Taixu."

The girl learned that in Taixu, people do not have feelings.

Her love for the boy had vanished, leaving only the memories of the past, which formed regret and tormented her heart repeatedly.

"What... will happen to him?"

"Hmm... I guess he was disheartened, lost all his fighting spirit, and died alone and helpless in the end."

"...Is that so?"

That glorious young man died an ordinary death, and the culprit was himself.

"I...I want to go back."

"Huh?" The system was taken aback.

“I want to go back, to go back and be with him. To die alone and helpless is not the end for him.”

"A rare wish, are you sure you want to use it like this?" the system asked, puzzled. "Besides, he doesn't remember you anymore. Even if I reconstruct your original body and send it to that world, he might not recognize you."

"Even so, it doesn't matter. I want to go back and be with him, even if it means dying together. At least, I can't leave him alone."

The moment he made that realization, Taixu vanished.

The memories turned into color, and even though they were all false, the girl still chose to face them.

Whether it was to atone for her sins or because of a troubled conscience, the girl chose to go back.

If the boy doesn't remember her, she'll stay by his side again; at least, her presence will make him feel a little better.

Whether you hit her, scold her, or even kill her, she will accept it.

That was what she originally thought.

However, when she returned with her body restored, she saw snow falling incessantly from the sky, covering all life in the world, causing everything to wither and even the most beautiful flowers to rot.

She stood by Shenlong Lake, listening numbly to the discussions of those around her.

"died?"

"He's really dead. A sword pierced his heart, and then he fell into Shenlong Lake. Tsk tsk, that's tragic."

"He died without a complete corpse..."

"Why would a former royal hero commit suicide in such a humiliating way?"

"Who knows, it seems like she's gone mad?"

Crowds flocked to the site where the former hero had died.

The girl, who understood everything, neither ate nor drank, and sat by the lake, getting soaked in the snow for three days.

Snow turned her hair white, and she numbly looked to the side, then to the wishing well.

It was as if a figure was standing there, devoutly making a wish to the dragon.

"...What did you wish for?"

Tell me, what did you wish for?

Those who go to Taixu will gradually lose their emotions.

However, she is now feeling a certain kind of pain.

"What is this, revenge?"

She looked at the lake, parted her lips into a gentle smile.

"If this makes you feel better, I'll accept it."

Large, fluffy snowflakes danced in the air, adorning the silvery-white world.

From then on, there was no more such a boy in this world.

Yes, there was a girl named Zhi Zixun who silently waited by the lake.

--------------------

“Miss Shi Guijia, although I don’t know about your relationship with that person, I think you must be in a lot of pain right now.”

"But those who left are gone, while those who loved you are still by your side. At least, don't let those who love you down, okay?"

The girl smiled and handed Shi Guijia a bouquet of gardenias.

The white flowers, emitting a faint fragrance, are like eternal snow, never fading.

"...What an ugly flower."

"That's too much! I can't pretend I didn't hear that. Gardenias are so beautiful!"

"...After all, your name is related to this. Anyway, thank you for your kindness."

Shi Guijia complained, but her body still honestly accepted it.

Yang Luoyi had already made her wish at the wishing well and was running over quickly.

Upon seeing Zhi Zixun, she quickly hid behind her mother, watching her warily.

Zhi Zixun didn't care at all, and squatted down with a smile, taking out some candy: "Want some?"

Yang Luo looked up and saw Shi Guijia.

"...Why are you looking at me like that? You're all grown up now, you should be able to make your own judgments sometimes, right?"

"Well……"
