System: My worldview has collapsed, please let me be quiet

System 005: But host, don’t you want a new phone?

Jiang Meiling: No.

System 005: That’s a phone that can access TikTok. What if I can also see your real-world scenes on TikTok?

Jiang Meiling: What? I can still see the scenes in the real world?

System 005: Yes, host, don't you want to know what your reputation is like in school after you acted bravely? And why did Zhou Yian want to strangle you to death?

Jiang Meiling thought about it and realized that if she had a mobile phone that could access the real world, she would be able to get the answer to why Zhou Yian strangled her neck more quickly.

Jiang Meiling: Okay, I’ll go back and complete the task.

So, while Jiang Shangyi was still urging Jiang Meiling to get in the car, Jiang Meiling refused.

"Dad, my cousin is alone in the hospital and needs someone to take care of him. I'd better stay."

"Ah? Then you should get more rest."

Dao Minghang looked at Jiang Meiling from inside the car and nodded deeply, "Good child, when Ah Si recovers, I will give you whatever you want!"

After saying that, Jiang Shangyi drove home.

Jiang Meiling shook her head and said, "Uncle, I want a tablet, can you buy it for me?" Forget it. In this day and age, it's good enough to have a mobile phone with a camera clasp.

Jiang Meiling skipped back to the ward.

Daomingsi was just about to go to sleep at this moment, but Jiang Meiling pulled him up.

"Hey, what are you doing? I want to sleep!"

"Don't sleep, you keep talking all the time. Let me ask you, do you know my father's last name is Jiang?"

Daoming Si nodded, "Yes, your father's last name is Jiang, so you are Jiang Bi."

The corners of Jiang Meiling's mouth twitched. What a Jiang Bi...

"Forget it, just stay here!" She turned away angrily.

System 005: Host, you still have a mission.

Jiang Meiling: No, I want to go find Jiang Beichen. What a stupid task! I might as well go and match him up with the long-distance running champion.

System 005: Host...are you giving up the mission voluntarily?

Jiang Meiling: Yes, I don’t want to do this task anymore.

System 005: Well then... the host has voluntarily given up the mission, so there are no more missions now.

System 002: Now transmitting a new instance of the map to the host, transmitting——

When Jiang Meiling woke up again, she found that she was no longer in the ward.

On a sunny afternoon, long-distance running champion Que Linlin was training in the park as usual.

She ran lightly with vigorous steps, her sportswear soaked with sweat, but her eyes were full of determination and persistence.

The young painter Jiang Beichen came to the park with his drawing board to look for creative inspiration.

He strolled along the tree-lined path, admiring the beautiful scenery around him and conceiving beautiful pictures in his mind.

Just then, Que Linlin ran past Jiang Beichen. Her dashing figure and confident smile instantly attracted Jiang Beichen's attention.

Jiang Beichen stopped involuntarily and looked at Que Linlin's back. An inexplicable urge surged in his heart. He wanted to record this moment with a paintbrush.

After running a lap, Que Linlin stopped to rest and happened to see Jiang Beichen standing not far away and staring at her.

She walked up to him and asked curiously, "Why are you looking at me?"

Jiang Beichen scratched his head a little embarrassedly, "You look so handsome when you run, I want to paint it with a brush."

After hearing this, Que Linlin laughed, "Really? Then you must be able to draw me well."

Jiang Beichen said confidently, "Don't worry, I will do my best."

So, Jiang Beichen found a suitable angle, set up the drawing board, and began to paint seriously.

Que Linlin watched quietly from the side. Looking at Jiang Beichen's focused expression, she developed a slight liking for this young painter.

After a while, Jiang Beichen finished the painting. He handed the drawing board to Que Linlin and asked, "Take a look. How is the painting?"

Que Linlin took the drawing board and saw that the picture of herself was so vivid that she seemed to be running out of the painting. She said in surprise, "Wow, it's so well drawn, I like it very much."

Jiang Beichen smiled happily after hearing this, "As long as you like it, I'm worried that I won't draw it well."

Just like that, long-distance running champion Que Linlin and young painter Jiang Beichen met on this beautiful afternoon, and their story began from then on.

Jiang Meiling secretly hid behind a big tree, staring at the two people intently.

I secretly sighed in my heart, this couple looks so sweet!

At this moment, three words appeared in front of Jiang Meiling.

Three years later--

eh?

This script also has a fast progress?

Three years later, Jiang Meiling found herself standing at the gate of Nanwu No. 1 Middle School!

She was still wearing Nanwu's school uniform and carrying a schoolbag on her back.

The point is, it seems like she just transferred to this school and reported in today?

So, this script returns to her previous storyline?

but……

Since she was already standing at the school gate, it meant that she had already met Daoming Si...

Jiang Meiling: 002, do I still need to conquer Zhou Yian now?

System 002: Host, this is definitely not necessary. In the main storyline, you have already completed the mission. Now you are just following the original plot. However, your focus now should be on Jiang Beichen and Que Linlin.

Jiang Meiling: Oh, so, if I see Zhou Yian throwing a confession letter later, I won’t have to force him to meet Lin Kexin.

System 002: Yes, host!

Jiang Meiling: So where is Jiang Beichen now?

System 002: Jiang Beichen was originally scheduled to appear only when he met you and invited you to do so, but now it is a side story, so he has returned home early.

System 002: But I have to remind the host, three years ago Jiang Beichen drew a picture for Que Linlin, but then the two separated before saying goodbye. When they met again three years later, they could no longer remember each other.

System 002: The reason why Jiang Beichen came to you with the portrait was because his impression of Que Linlin was already very vague, so he mistakenly took you as the girl he had drawn before.

Jiang Meiling: So, I am actually a stand-in?

System 002: Well, you can understand it that way.

Jiang Meiling: I finally understand why the heroine is a person who is good at moral, intellectual, physical, aesthetic and labor work.

It turns out that it is used as a substitute!

Jiang Meiling: What about Que Linlin, where is she now?

System 002: Que Linlin was originally doing daily training in the national long-distance running team, but because she recently entered a rebellious period, she has now... escaped from the training camp. After her parents found out, they were also looking for her.

Jiang Meiling: So what? Where is she hiding now?

System 002: Host, I don’t know this either.
