Qianjie remembered this little girl. She was innocent and carefree, and she taught him to carve puppets. She was full of hope for the future and wanted to go out and see the world, instead of being slowly assimilated by her surroundings and becoming a bird in a cage.
Alicia:?
"But the bride looks so happy!"
Qianjie did not continue speaking.
Because she was too obedient, she always accepted whatever came her way. In the process of making choices, she gave up her hobbies and dreams, and even had to smile as she closed the coffin for her childhood self.
Alicia squinted, her mind filled with endless fantasies about love, ready to meddle in other people's business.
"Alicia." Kevin sensed something was off: "You're not going to crash the wedding, are you?"
why not?
Alicia turned her head, her smile as bright as the spring sunshine. She was Alicia!
[The attempt to steal the bride failed miserably.]
Alicia considered every possibility, but she never expected that Qianjie had lied to her.
[In the end, at the home of the bride who was not yet married, she was pointed at and gossiped about from a moral high ground by both sets of parents and even bystanders!]
Even the beautiful Anna, the bride, only gently persuaded her, showing not a trace of reluctance.
She became the clown with color, while Kevin was the clown without color, although the two of them could indeed be a winning combination.
[A Thousand Calamities!!!]
After being driven out of the village at noon, Alicia puffed out her cheeks, while Qianjie remained sitting at the village entrance, breaking off new branches and carefully carving them.
Qi said, "This is incredibly embarrassing."
Kevin smiled wryly. If word of this incident got back to the Fire Moth, he would be laughed at for a year!
"It's pretty boring, isn't it?"
Qian Jie casually replied.
Throughout the day, Xiao's mood was not particularly high. He didn't swear, didn't use foul language, and didn't even shout "fight, fight, fight" all day long.
"I think that in other people's eyes, Kevin and I are pretty good enough to be the butt of jokes."
Er Ailisia's tone was low and gloomy. Now the two of them had become the laughing stock in the village, but she still had to stay here for the mission.
After all, it was all to stop the Honkai and kill the Herrscher; it was just a little mockery, so Alicia tolerated it!
Qianjie's carving skills were as bad as ever; he could only barely carve out a human figure.
From An Yu's perspective, the cutscene had just finished loading.
Looking at the house, which was decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations and covered with the character for "happiness," he thought for a moment and then pushed open the door to his older sister's room.
"sister?"
"I don't have any red envelopes for you right now."
Anna responded softly, a sweet smile on her face.
An Yu sat on the dressing table. Anna smiled helplessly at the sight. An Yu was still so disobedient. If her parents saw this, they would nag her for a long time.
This dressing table was specially ordered before the wedding.
"Interested in running away from the wedding?"
An Yu observed her surroundings and finally found a diary in the drawer. It was a bit old, with neat handwriting on it, recording the girl's earliest dreams.
Anna froze for a moment, just like when Alicia barged in before; her expression was somewhat subtle.
"Are you crazy?"
If An Yu's parents knew this, they would cripple her legs.
The invitations have already been sent out. If the bride runs away from the wedding, the parents will never be able to hold their heads high in the village again.
An Yu smiled and replied, "No?"
Anna frowned slightly when she saw that the child was disobedient: "Also, put down the book. I don't want to slap you on such a joyous occasion."

Volume 1: Chapter 107, Section 106: Little Wimpy Anna
[An Yu, of course, didn't put it down. Before Anna could exercise her authority as an older sister and implement bloodline suppression, he had already nimbly slipped out with the diary.]
He didn't dare wander off because he knew there were three bosses watching him from outside.
The diary is somewhat worn, with the edges of the pages even slightly curled. Aside from childhood dreams and complaints about parents, it mostly contains aspirations for life and small, everyday events.
I don't write in my diary every day; I usually only write a entry every few months.
In games, these kinds of diaries are generally called story items.
Anna gave up carving in elementary school, but she eventually taught the skill to the village's deity. The deity's carving skills were terrible, yet he always wore the mask Anna gave him.
Perhaps this is the unique gentleness of the gods; seven- or eight-year-old Anna harbors such kindness.
[She excelled academically in junior high school, but gave up painting on her parents' advice... An Yu quite agrees with this.]
[I didn't have many friends in high school, but when I came home, I always volunteered to help out. I was the best child in my parents' eyes.] Lu ×▲{
She wants to study abroad! She wants to see the world, to see poetry and distant places, and to experience the beauty described in textbooks.
So even though she had few friends, and even though she was constantly compared to other children at home, she never complained.
[The diary had been empty for a long time. An Yu couldn't find the diary she wrote when she was in college. In the last two pages that were stuck together, he carefully separated them and found the last sentence: "She has sacrificed so much for her family, it's time for her to..."]
Have you met your soulmate?
An Yu didn't know who Anna wanted to marry, but it certainly wasn't the person she was currently planning to marry.
Why, you ask?
Because this is simply the inevitable development of the plot!
If she really married the person she loved, why did Qianjie say in the previous cutscene that Anna wasn't doing it willingly?
This is the player's deductive reasoning skills!
Late at night, all the lights in the house were finally turned off. An Yu quietly pushed open Anna's bedroom door, her movements so light that she didn't even disturb Anna's deep sleep.
"I'm sorry, Anna."
In order to pass the level, he needs to find someone to attract attention, and Anna is the most suitable candidate.
Because she knows Qianjie, the delay is likely to be the longest. Moreover, Anna is a person of destiny, so even if the other party really has the memories of the dream, he will not be able to find his reversed entropy self.
He continued searching through the quest items, hoping to find something to awaken Anna's rebellious spirit, but suddenly a sound came from behind him, not a voice, but a suppressed sob.
nq:七◇★(一々↑潞※汣阾£安语持住呼吸。
There was no sound in the darkness. After a long while, An Yu slowly approached and found that Anna was indeed still asleep, but her face was streaked with tears. Could she be crying in her sleep?
"Sister Anna?" He gently nudged his older sister.
Perhaps because she has an older sister in real life, An Yu felt a little awkward calling Anna "Sister Anna".
But I adapted quickly.
"An Yu, I think you really deserve a slap!"
After being shoved awake, Anna remained bewildered in the dark room for a long time. When she could barely make out that it was An Yu by the light of the night outside the window, she gritted her teeth.
Let's run away from this wedding!
After An Yu finished speaking, she quickly retreated, easily dodging Anna's forceful slap.
"Who says you're one of us!"
Anna sat on the bed, her chest heaving with anger.
"But Anna doesn't like him at all!"
Anna didn't reply. After a moment of silence, she suddenly remembered that this brat was her younger brother, so she grabbed a pillow from the side and threw it at him forcefully.
An Yu caught it easily, and the pillow didn't hurt when it hit him. He thought about what he had to do and felt that if he were in reality, he would deserve to be hit by a brick a few times.
"And Anna, she's never made any choices for herself growing up, has she?"
“Sculpting, painting, even studying, school…”
Although there's not much to say about this, An Yu remembered that she had gone through the same thing before she transmigrated to the fourth time. ×肆“∩
"What's it to you, kid?"
Anna subconsciously softened her voice, not because she had calmed down, but because she was afraid that her parents would hear her and slap both of them.
Oh, she's getting married tomorrow, and she'll probably slap An Yu twice.
“Sister Anna…” An Yu handed over the pillow.
"If I listen to my parents again this time, I'll be losing control of my whole life."
Anna took the pillow and hugged it tightly to her chest, her fair arms gripping it with extra force.
In the darkness, An Yu couldn't see the girl's face clearly, but she could vaguely see some glistening in the girl's eyes. She didn't know if it was the lingering effect of crying in her dream or if her words had stirred up her emotions again.
His voice softened considerably: "Sister, you're still young. You always think you have plenty of time for yourself in the future, so it's okay to sacrifice a little for now."
"But have you ever thought that once you back down in marriage, you can never turn things around for the rest of your life?"
Marriage is truly terrifying. An Yu has a lot to say about this, especially after he started paying attention to this issue in college and researched relevant cases from those years.
"roll……"
Anna, who had been a coward at home her whole life, was finally able to stand up for herself when facing her younger brother.
Anna pursed her lips: "Sister Anna, I don't really understand the meaning of marriage, but... are you sure you want to spend the rest of your life with someone you don't like?"
Jiu slowly left the room.
[The next morning, Anna's eyes were red, and she glared at An Yu fiercely when she saw him.]
[The mother probably knew why; she comforted Anna: "He's the richest man in the village, and his family owns a factory. Marrying him won't be a bad deal for you."]
[This is something you're definitely not at a disadvantage in. You wouldn't say he's extremely ugly, but he's not particularly handsome either, just average. He probably won't be unfaithful after marriage.]
[Furthermore, people who look honest and reliable are often the ones best suited to spend their lives with.]
5. Anna's smile remained gentle. She nodded; she understood.
[Based solely on the data, this is indeed a very good choice.]
[This wedding even had a grand sedan chair carried by eight men!]
When it was time to get into the sedan chair, Anna lay on An Yu's back. According to custom, the younger brother was to help his older sister into the sedan chair.
An Yu had already keenly sensed that three unfriendly gazes were fixed on them.
Damn, so it really is a case of inheriting memories.
Why did it spawn on the boss's face this time?! Are we even allowed to play the game anymore?!
Why didn't you try to persuade me this time?
Anna, dressed in a phoenix coronet and embroidered robe, with a red veil covering her head, spoke softly.
"Decided?"
An Yu responded softly.
Snapped!
Anna gave a light slap, then remained silent, resting her head on her brother's shoulder.
The people around them didn't pay any attention. It's normal for siblings to bicker and fight. Besides, at this stage of carrying the sedan chair, it's possible for siblings to hug each other and cry.
An Yu walked steadily, and Anna watched through the gap under the red veil as she got closer and closer to the sedan chair.
The wedding proceeded as planned, but the seeds of resentment in Anna's heart grew ever larger, eventually turning into bitterness and resentment.
