Day .

Tao Li has already arranged the wedding venue, and all that's left is for Gong Cheng and Tao Zhi to confirm if there's anything that needs to be changed.

Tao Zhi lay lazily in the quilt, with one foot sticking out to kick Gong Cheng who was standing by the bed.

"Honey, please go. I really don't want to go. My waist hurts so much now and I really don't want to move. I believe in Xiaocheng's vision." Tao Zhi said coquettishly.

"Are you really not going? Otherwise, I won't go either and will stay at home with you today." Gong Cheng said gently.

Tao Zhi twisted his face and kicked Gong Cheng a few times in a coquettish manner.

"Don't waste your time. If you have time, tell me whether you want to go or not. I can make a round trip."

"Tomorrow is our wedding, so please take it seriously. Or do you not love me anymore and don't care how our wedding goes?" Tao Zhi said angrily, puffing out his cheeks.

Gong Cheng had no choice but to bend down and kiss Tao Zhi on the forehead.

"Then you just rest at home and wait for me to come back. I will bring you your favorite peach cakes when I come back." Gong Cheng said gently.

"Okay, husband~" Tao Zhi said with blinking eyes.

Gong Cheng left the room and closed the door.

Tao Zhi looked at the empty ceiling and counted in his mind. He stopped when he counted enough for Gong Cheng to leave the villa.

At this moment, there was no longer the love in Tao Zhi's eyes that he had when Gong Cheng was here just now. Only the unsuppressible struggle and pain remained.

Tao Zhi bit his lips for a long time and finally spoke.

"Fanfan, come out." Tao Zhi said.

"I'm here. How can I be of service to the host?" Fanfan said.

"Fanfan, tell me, where is Tao Zhi?" Tao Zhi asked.

"You are Tao Zhi."

"The character of Tao Zhi is no different from any other character you have seen. They are just a piece of text sketched by the author from beginning to end."

"Tao Zhi does not exist anywhere other than these words, nor does he exist as a separate individual from this novel."

"It is your arrival that makes the image of Tao Zhi three-dimensional, but this does not change the fact that he is just a piece of text."

"And the meaning of your existence is to use the basic setting of Tao Zhi's text to fill in and polish the gaps in the plot, improve and promote the development of the main line, and finally bring about the predetermined HE ending." Fanfan said.

It was this paragraph again, and it was exactly the same as the last answer. It was like a fixed answer that had been set long ago. Once the question was triggered, it would pop up mechanically.

"Why did the original text Tao Zhi deliberately destroy his own reputation?" Tao Zhi asked.

"Because in the original text, Tao Zhi is set as a perverted scumbag, and a bad reputation is just a basic setting for him. Tao Zhi destroying his own reputation is a behavior that fits the character's image." Fanfan said.

The answer is irrelevant and the boundary of the question is deliberately blurred. Tao Zhi thought.

"Am I Tao Zhi?" Tao Zhi asked.

"The host's name is Tao Zhi, of course you are Tao Zhi. Besides you, there are many cannon fodders in the world whose names are also Tao Zhi. They are all Tao Zhi." Fanfan said.

Playing dumb, Tao Zhi felt a chill in his heart.

Fanfan can answer questions irrelevantly, play dumb, or even deliberately conceal some content to mislead, but it cannot lie to targeted questions with fixed answers.

Tao Zhi took a deep breath and spoke.

"Have I already been in this world before I was twenty-eight years old and had no memories?" Tao Zhi asked.

"Yes." Fanfan replied.

"Have I ever organized eight people to play mahjong together?" Tao Zhi asked.

"Yes." Fanfan replied.

"Except for the time I paid someone to act out a play to ruin my reputation, have I ever done the same thing before?"

"Yes."

"Have I ever liked Xu Yanze?"

"Yes."

"Do I have a puncture?" Tao Zhi asked.

"Yes." Fanfan replied.

"I am Tao Zhi." Tao Zhi said numbly.

"Yes."

"The host's name is Tao Zhi, of course you are Tao Zhi. Besides you, there are many cannon fodders in the world whose names are also Tao Zhi. They are all Tao Zhi." Fanfan said.

Tao Zhi suddenly laughed out loud.

What an idiot I am.

From the very beginning when I asked where the original owner Tao Zhi was, Fanfan had already told me the answer.

"You are Tao Zhi." it said.

"You erased my memory before I was 28 years old." Tao Zhi said.

"No, I did not erase any of the host's memories. Instead, I sealed and stored the relevant memories at the host's request, and the host himself asked me to conceal the truth as much as possible." Fanfan explained.

Tao Zhi was silent for a long time.

Fanfan said this the last time we were at the villa. This was not the first time he had blocked his memory.

"Besides the time at the villa when I asked you to seal your memory, when was the last time I asked you to seal your memory before that?" Tao Zhi asked.

"After the second world line announced the failure of the mission." Fanfan gave the answer.

Tao Zhi was shocked when he heard this. His eyes widened and tears welled up in his eyes. He was stunned for a long time and felt so excited that he couldn't breathe.

What does the second world line mean?

Does the existence of the second imply the existence of the first?

Is this the third one that I am in now? Or is it more?

Didn't it say that if the mission fails, the world line will be frozen? Didn't it say that I will be wiped out in this world? Why can I continue to travel through other world lines?

Yes, it said it.

It says "obliterated in this world".

That is to say, it is erased in the current world.

As for not informing you that you will be thrown into the next world line to perform your mission again after being wiped out, this is its usual trick.

If you don't ask, it won't speak.

So the so-called task is actually a cycle.

As long as he failed in his mission again and again, he would be trapped in this dream, unable to return to reality, and unable to see his mother.

The failed world lines that you have experienced will be annihilated before your eyes again and again, and you will have to watch everyone you are familiar with being frozen and their lives coming to a standstill.

Then reunite with them in a whole new world line.

But are they still the same as they are in my memory?

They have lost all their memories of me, and they have fixed their minds on the original setting at the beginning. In their eyes, I am just the scumbag Tao Zhi who is good at writing, not the Tao Zhi who cried and laughed with me.

"Which world line am I in now?" Tao Zhi asked in a hoarse voice.

"The third world line." Fanfan replied.

This means that before this, I had failed twice.

My relatives, friends, and lover have died twice because of my incompetence.

"Fanfan, give me back all my memories of the first two world lines." Tao Zhi said.

"The host applies for memory restoration. Friendly reminder, the memory capacity is too large, forced restoration will cause extreme pain to the host, partial restoration is recommended." Fanfan said.

"All of them." Tao Zhi replied.

"Okay, memory permissions have been opened for the host. Please listen to the host's message before restoring memory."

"The truth is crueler than lies. Stop making yourself look even more ridiculous." Fanfan said.

"Host, please confirm whether to restore your memory." Fanfan said.

"Confirmed." Tao Zhi closed his eyes.
