Teacher Daxiang, let’s form a lifelong band!

"Lu Li, me too. My feelings won't change. I'll always be waiting for you until I meet someone I think is more worthy of my love than you." Nagasaki Suyo said to you with a smile.

[“Lu Li…” The shy Takamatsu Deng didn’t say anything like Shiina Riki and Nagasaki Motoyo. She just called out your name softly. She didn’t need to say much because her favorite penguin stuffed animal was right in your hand.]

【“Everyone.” You sighed.】

"Don't rush to give us an answer. We still have plenty of time. Think about it for a while."

[And so, this farce came to an end with Nagasaki Suyo's conclusion.]

[Nagasaki Suyo and the other two failed in their confession to you, and you also failed in your confession to Chihaya Aine.]

"Running away again, little pinkie."

"So this one was sent?"

Your confession did fail, but even if it did, life still has to go on. After this farce, because the band disbanded, the five of you haven't had a big reunion since.

[As time went by, the situations of the five of you became different. Naturally, each of the four girls was admitted to university, but they all went to completely different universities.]

Nagasaki Suyo is a student at Aoyama Gakuin, a private university in Minato-ku, Tokyo.

[Tōrō Takamatsu was admitted to Osaka University, while Tatsuki Shiina was admitted to Kyoto University with his outstanding performance.]

[The one who performed the best among the four was definitely Chihaya Aine, who already had excellent grades. As expected by everyone, Chihaya Aine naturally got into the University of Tokyo.]

[On the day Chihaya Aine received her acceptance letter from the University of Tokyo, you sent her a congratulatory message, but she didn't reply.]

[You think, this time, you probably haven't been able to win Chihaya Aine's favor. ]

【But you don’t regret it either.】

"Even if you didn't end up with Chihaya Aine, you still made enough effort in this simulation. At least you changed everyone, and you have no regrets."

Everyone in the band has been admitted to university, so you've naturally been busy too. Now that you no longer need to focus on the band, you've also started working hard for your own future.

[Perhaps to commemorate your unrequited love, you began to delve into literature and tried to write a collection of short and medium-length essays. You incorporated your love for Chihaya Aine into your works.]

【Skill: Literature activation.】

You already possess a solid literary foundation, and with your current inspiration, you quickly produced a truly outstanding collection of novellas. This collection of essays won you the Naoki Prize in the second half of that year.

The news of a new artist winning the Naoki Prize naturally caused a huge stir in society, and upon learning of your win, everyone in the band gathered together once again, a rare opportunity.

【"Congratulations."】

In a private room at a restaurant, the five members of the band, who hadn't been together for almost a year or two, reunited. Compared to their last gathering, they'd all changed a lot: in age, appearance, and conversation; time had left its mark on each of them.

[But no matter how you change, everyone still likes you, and you still like Chihaya Aine. ]

"Hypnosis app, awesome!"

"Can you get me one in real life? If you have one, I can use it on Shuang, the girl next to me, and I'll have it for life!"

At the dinner table, the five of you chatted and laughed, each of you talking about what had happened since entering college. As for your relationships, none of you mentioned them. It was as if they had never even existed.

[Of course, there's no way to continue talking about this matter.]

[The person you like doesn't like you, and the person who likes you isn't liked by you. This kind of emotional chain simply can't be connected, so naturally there's nothing to say.]

【“…”】

The meal ended without anything happening.

[After the dinner, the five of you said goodbye and prepared to leave. However, just as you were about to go home, someone finally stood up.]

“Is that enough?”

[The person who stood up was Nagasaki Suyo, and she blocked Chihaya Aine's way. ]

Nagasaki Motoyo looked at Chihaya Aine: "Anon, it's been almost two years since the last time. Isn't it time for you to give your answer?"

[The person Nagasaki Suyo asked was of course Chihaya Aine, because she knew that Chihaya Aine was the only chain that bound you. As long as Chihaya Aine didn't give an answer, you would just be hanging there forever.]

【“…”】

【"I......."】

......

"Anon, it's time for you to give your answer."

"Last time you ran away, everyone understood you, so we gave you enough time to be willful, but now, it's time for you to give an answer."

"..."

Chihaya Aine fell silent as she looked at the person who stopped her.

Of course she knew she had to give an answer.

But how would she give it?

"I......"

Raising her head, Chihaya Aine once again looked at the people in front of her. Just like last time, the same people were standing in front of her this time. Last time, she had been a deserter, and now, she actually still wanted to escape...

"You guy, do you still want to escape?"

At this moment, Shiina Riki spoke up: "If you like it, you like it. If you don't like it, you don't like it. It's been so long, and you still can't even say whether you like it or not?"

"..."

Chihaya Aine continued to remain silent.

What can she do?

"Anon-chan..." Takamatsu Deng also spoke, but Takamatsu Deng didn't say anything harsh. She just gently called Chihaya Aine's name.

"..."

"I understand."

Being watched by everyone, this time, Chihaya Aine knew that she couldn't escape.

So, she took a deep breath and walked in front of Lu Li.

"Feel sorry."

Chihaya Aine bent down.

"Lu Li, I'm sorry, I really still can't accept your confession."

"That's it."

Hearing Chihaya Aine's words, Lu Li was stunned at first, then he smiled bitterly: "Can you tell me the reason?"

reason?

There are too many reasons.

First of all, this was just a simulation, and I wasn't prepared.

"Because, you don't like it that much, right?"

"Don't you like it that much?" Lu Li asked back.

"Ah."

Yes, not that much, not that much.

"I see, thank you."

......

[This time, Chihaya Aine finally stopped evading you. She formally rejected your confession and apologized for her previous evasion.]

[Chihaya Aine is a good girl. You can't force her to like you. And compared to those human-like simulation experiences in the past, this is the most decent time you've been rejected. At the same time, it's also the one with the least regrets.]

[After being rejected, just like Chihaya Aine rejected you, you sincerely and solemnly apologized to Nagasaki Motoyo, Takamatsu Touma, and Shiina Riki and rejected them again.]

[You really tried your best this time, and you have no regrets. You did what you wanted to do. Although it wasn't the result you wanted, it's enough.]

[Not long after, you sent a message to everyone with a smile, and then you boarded a plane and left Japan. This was not an escape, but the beginning of your journey around the world as a writer.]

You've been to many places, such as the African savannah, Lake Thorning in Iceland, and Lake Te Anau in New Zealand.

[You've traveled all over the world. Of course, you'll encounter some minor troubles along the way, but these minor troubles are insignificant to you, because those who cause trouble for you will usually kneel down in front of you and beg you to stop bothering them.]

These wonderful journeys of yours have also become your experiences, and in the process, you have created countless classic literary works.

You have become a true literary master.

【….】

Many years later, on an ordinary morning, in a small hut in an unknown country, a local girl knocked on the door of the hut, bringing rich food as promised.

"Mr. Lu, I'm here to bring you breakfast."

The little girl knocked on the door many times, but no sound came from inside. Noticing no sound, she bravely pushed the door open. Then, she saw you, lying on the desk, smiling, as if you were asleep.

[Carefully walking to your side, the little girl saw the last words you left in this world.]

“I will always be gentle and sincere to those whose hearts are like water, both gentle and steady, both docile and strong, bendable but not broken.”

“Now I realize that the world is infinitely vast, full of hope and despair, opportunities and challenges. This world belongs to those who have the audacity and courage to pursue and explore.”

"One phase of my life ends tonight, and a new one begins tomorrow."

Jane Eyre

[End of simulation]

Open a reward~

I didn't want to open one originally, but many readers said that 4000 pages a day were not enough, so I decided to open one.

Everyone knows the author's character. Once the bounty is issued, it will definitely be paid back. So for the sake of health, I will open it for three days (PS: Due to everyone's excessive enthusiasm, it has been changed to one day!)

1 update is 2000 words.

150 monthly tickets plus 1 update.

1000 recommendation votes plus 1 update.

Blade 100 plus one more.

Reward 1 and get one more chapter.

There are no gold or silver treasure chests anyway. If there were, then calculate it as 5 silver and 15 gold.

We still encourage everyone to cast more free tickets and give fewer rewards. It is not easy for everyone to make money, so please spend the money on yourself.

Above~

------

Then let’s talk about something that everyone may be concerned about, which is the direction of the plot.

Let me just talk about it briefly here.

In one sentence: [The protagonist is the protagonist! ]

That's it, finally record the current data

7080 monthly tickets, 45634 recommendation tickets, 10.03 rewards, 1426 blades

(I will also count the votes you cast from midnight to this morning into the reward, so you can rest assured.)

The bounty has been shortened to one day!

I originally thought that after three days of the entire bounty, I would only be able to produce less than 10 chapters.

As a result, after a few hours, I just counted and found that I owed 12 chapters.

The reward has been temporarily changed to end at 12 noon tonight, which means it is shortened from three days to one day.

I really can't pay it back any more.

that's all.
