The unscrupulous system forced me to frantically test the small black room

Under the guidance of the system, Tao Zhi went to the club and brought back Gong Cheng, the protagonist who appeared for the first time.

Xu Yanze on the stairs and Tao Zhi below the stairs stared at each other for a long time.

Tao Zhi pulled Gong Cheng up the stairs, and when they passed by Xu Yanze, his arm was grabbed.

"Tao Zhi, don't do this to me."

Xu Yanze's voice was trembling, and the hurt in his eyes could not be concealed.

"Don't bother me." Tao Zhi replied.

Tao Zhi lowered his eyes and pulled his hand out, then put his arm on Gong Cheng's shoulder and took Gong Cheng into the room.

Xu Yanze stood outside the door all night.

After the first time, there was a second time. Tao Zhi brought Gong Cheng back again. Without even looking at Xu Yanze, he pulled Gong Cheng into the room and then ordered the housekeeper to bring in the filming equipment.

The third time, Tao Zhi took the initiative to find Xu Yanze.

"I'm supporting him. Now I need you to give up the room next to mine. I'll ask the housekeeper to clean up another room for you to stay in temporarily. When you find a place to live, you can move out." Tao Zhi said indifferently.

Xu Yanze and Tao Zhi had their first hysterical argument, and Xu Yanze lost control and pressed Tao Zhi against the wall.

"What's wrong with you? Why are you doing this? Why are you suddenly doing this to me?"

"Tao Zhi, did I do something wrong? Was there something I didn't do well enough?" Xu Yanze collapsed.

Tao Zhi endured the pain in his heart and held back his tears.

"You didn't do anything wrong. You are the perfect Xu Yanze. There is nothing wrong with you."

"It's just that I don't love you anymore."

"I, Tao Zhi, am a person who gets bored easily. You no longer interest me, so I found a new playmate," said Tao Zhi.

"Tao Zhi, I can pretend that nothing happened, as long as we are still the same as before..."

"Xu Yanze!" Tao Zhi roared.

"Is it fun for you to make yourself so humble?"

"We are all adults, why do you take it so seriously?" Tao Zhi said coldly.

"Ten years, ten years. How can I give it up?"

Xu Yanze's questioning and begging with a broken face were met with Tao Zhi expressing his disgust and impatience with harsh words.

Finally, he ordered the bodyguard to drive Xu Yanze out of the villa and threw the little rascal out with the leash.

The next time they met was in the hospital. Xu Yanze's depression, which had not recurred since he returned to China, had recurred. His left hand was bitten and bleeding, with the bone visible. If he had been sent to the hospital later, he would have died.

At this time, Xu Yanze was still in a coma, and the ventilator was making a regular dripping sound.

Tao Zhi stayed by Xu Yanze's bedside for three days, crying over and over again, looking utterly haggard.

It was not until Tao Zhi vaguely saw Xu Yanze's eyelashes trembling that he knew he was about to wake up. He excitedly went to call a doctor, but Xu Yanze grabbed his wrist.

The hand that Xu Yanze grabbed Tao Zhi's was an injured hand. With this action, the wound immediately broke open and blood oozed out.

Xu Yanze was still unconscious and could only vaguely see the outline of the person in front of him. He instinctively wanted to grab him.

Tao Zhi turned around with red eyes and saw Xu Yanze, whose eyes were dull and whose lips were trembling as he tried to speak.

Xu Yanze's throat was so dry and hoarse that he couldn't make any sound.

But Tao Zhi could still see the shape of his mouth through his cracked lips.

He said.

"Tao Zhi, don't leave me."

Tao Zhi's emotions were surging. He suppressed his tears and grabbed Xu Yanze's hospital gown.

"Xu Yanze!"

"Can't you live without me?"

"Don't let me look down on you."

Tao Zhi left with a cold face, but after leaving the ward he could no longer maintain his disguise and cried outside the door with his hands covering his mouth.

I regret.

I regret that I knew from the beginning that we were destined to be separated one day, but I still selfishly provoked you and coveted you.

If it happens again, I won’t go to the airport to see you that day, nor will I tell you my feelings again.

It is always better to miss it at the beginning than to lose it after having it.

Tao Zhi continued to devote himself to the task, perfectly replicating the Tao Zhi in the original text who bullied Gong Cheng without any mercy.

Occasionally, when Tao Zhi was struggling with his thoughts, he would have the selfish thought, "Why not let this false dream be buried along with my own willfulness?"

After all, my mother no longer exists in reality.

But everything here is so good, how can I have the right to be willful?

The mission cannot fail, absolutely cannot fail, Tao Zhi muttered to himself.

Thirty-one years old.

Gong Cheng failed to graduate from college, and then learned that his mother did not live long.

Gong Cheng received Mr. Gu's invitation letter and accepted it with a desperate mood. With the help of Xu Yanze, he got rid of Tao Zhi and was taken to the United States.

Xu Yanze thought that his act of helping Gong Cheng escape would anger Tao Zhi and would draw Tao Zhi's attention to him for the first time in a long time.

But Tao Zhi looked like he had expected it and didn't care.

Xu Yanze didn't understand.

Don't you love him?

Didn't you abandon me for him?

Why he left doesn't matter to you.

Tao Zhi went back to the entertainment venue to scan his face, reporting in regularly like clocking in for work, and Xu Yanze would wait until he had had enough fun before coming forward to support him.

After helping Tao Zhi out of the crowd's sight, the drunken Tao Zhi would drop his disguise and return to a sober state, then wave Xu Yanze's hand away with pretended disgust.

But there were times when Tao Zhi was really drunk and he would cling to Xu Yanze's back and refuse to get off, so Xu Yanze would carry him to the garage.

Tao Zhi cried and laughed at times, and was quiet for a while when he was tired. When they arrived in front of the car, Xu Yanze put Tao Zhi down, helped him sit in the passenger seat and fastened his seat belt.

Xu Yanze was about to close the door, but Tao Zhi stretched out his hand to block the door and took something out of his pocket.

Tao Zhi took out a rose that had been crushed. Almost half of its petals had fallen off, but it was still bright red and eye-catching.

Tao Zhi smiled and held the flowers in his hand in front of Xu Yanze. In a trance, he saw his smiling face holding a rose in the snow outside the window that year.

He said.

"Xu Yanze, happy birthday."

Xu Yanze suddenly realized.

He still loves me.

At the age of 33, Gong Cheng and Gu Dongnan returned to China.

Tao Zhi pounced on him as if he was injected with chicken blood, and kept harassing Gong Cheng. When his love was not accepted, he began to humiliate him, and again and again helped Gong Cheng recall his unbearable past years.

Tao Zhi conscientiously plays the role of a qualified villain, and occasionally plays the role of a stumbling block in the careers of the two protagonists.

After repeated verification, Xu Yanze also discovered one thing: Tao Zhi's approach to Gong Cheng did not seem to be out of courtship, but an attempt to anger Gong Cheng.

On Gong Cheng's birthday, Tao Zhi confessed his love to Gong Cheng in public. Just as the original plot went, his confession was rejected, Tao Zhi broke down, verbally humiliated Gong Cheng, and fought with him, ruining his reputation.

There was just a small incident. The fight was supposed to be about Tao Zhi attacking Gong Cheng and Gu Dongnan coming to help, but it turned into a fight between Gu Dongnan and Xu Yanze.

Tao didn't take such a trivial matter to heart.

What Xu Yanze did would not cause any waves, Tao Zhi thought.

But after that, every plan of Tao Zhi to make Gong Cheng revenge on him was hindered. It can be said that the mission progressed with difficulty, and just ruining his reputation was never achieved.

Time was running out, Tao Zhi panicked, and he decided to kidnap Gong Cheng once and for all. However, when he woke up, he found that it was himself who was locked up, and it was Xu Yanze who pushed the door open.

"Xu Yanze? Why are you locking me up? Are you crazy?" Tao Zhi frowned.

"You want to kidnap Gong Cheng, then become a kidnapper, and be sent to prison by Gong Cheng himself, right?" Xu Yanze said in a gentle voice.

"How do you know..." Tao Zhi looked surprised.

"I have been thinking about what you are doing for a long time, but I still can't understand your purpose."

"You constantly provoke Gong Cheng and Gu Dongnan, showing a negative presence in front of them, and sometimes your acting is really deliberate and poor."

"Tao Zhi, can you tell me your purpose?"

"You obviously don't love him, but why do you always stay around Gong Cheng? You don't care about the cost, your reputation, and now you don't even care about your father's company."

"What on earth have you been doing all this time?"

"Can you tell me?" Xu Yanze asked.

Tao Zhi did not tell Xu Yanze the answer, but only hysterically abused and humiliated him, demanding that Xu Yanze let him go.

Xu Yanze had no choice but to hold her in his arms and coax her gently as before.

"It doesn't matter if you don't want to say it."

"As long as you stay by my side, I don't care about anything else."

"Tao Zhi, I will be someone who can protect you as I promised at the beginning."

"I won't let anyone hurt you, not even Gong Cheng." Xu Yanze said gently.

The first world line ultimately declared a mission failure due to Xu Yanze's obstruction.
