Zhang Xiaoxiao asked the system in her mind, "Is there no other way to complete the task besides marrying him?"
[There is no other way besides marrying him.]
"But what if I marry him and he doesn't like me?"
[Don't worry, he won't like anyone.]
"Why?"
[Because he is the villain.]
"......"
Zhang Xiaoxiao felt a bit anxious, "System, what if I end up falling in love with him after I marry him?"
[That won't happen, don't worry. He only has feelings for his family; he won't develop feelings for anyone else.]
"Really?"
[Really, I promise you.]
Zhang Xiaoxiao: "......"
Seeing that it couldn't persuade Zhang Xiaoxiao, the system began to soothe her with side quests.
[How about this, host? To help you complete your task better, I will give you some side quests. As long as you complete them, I will send you back immediately and grant you one wish.]
"Is that true?"
[Of course it's true. When have I ever lied to you?]
Zhang Xiaoxiao hesitated a bit, "Well... okay then."
[Great, now let's start with the first side quest.]
"Wait a minute." Zhang Xiaoxiao interrupted it, "What is the content of the task?"
[The task is... to make the villain have feelings for you.]
"......"
Zhang Xiaoxiao: "System, are you messing with me?"
[No, how could I dare to mess with you? You are my host!]
"Then why would you make me do such a task?"
[This is a side quest, not a main quest. If you complete it, you will receive rewards and be able to go back. If you don't want to complete it, that's fine too.]
"Can I go back by myself now?"
[No.]
"Why not?"
[Because your soul is bound to me. Unless I disappear, you can only stay in this world.]
"......"
Zhang Xiaoxiao didn't want to say anything anymore; she felt like the system was threatening her.
[Host, please don't be angry. I'm not intentionally keeping you from going back; it's just that it wouldn't help you to return now since you don't have a physical body. You would still be stuck in my space.]
"Can't I go home?"
[Your physical body has already been cremated; you can't go back.]
"......"
Zhang Xiaoxiao felt sad for a second but then perked up, saying, "It's fine. Anyway, I'm already dead, so there's no point in going back. I'll just stay here."
[It's great that you can think that way.]
Zhang Xiaoxiao: "......"
After her mental communication with the system ended, her consciousness returned to reality.
She remembered Liu Guangcai's initial coldness towards her and then recalled his caring and tenderness a month later.
She couldn't help but laugh out loud.
[Host, what are you laughing at?]
"I'm laughing at you."
[What's so funny about me?]
"You wouldn't understand; kids shouldn't ask so many questions."
[......]
The system was frustrated with Zhang Xiaoxiao but felt helpless.
At that moment, there was a sudden knock on the door from outside.
Zhang Xiaoxiao sat up and asked, "Who is it?"
"It's me, Li Xiumei."
Zhang Xiaoxiao was taken aback for a moment before realizing that Li Xiumei had come to visit.
She slowly got out of bed and slowly went to open the door.
As soon as the door opened, Li Xiumei angrily asked, "Zhang Xiaoxiao, did you spread rumors about me in the village?"
"What rumors did I spread?" Zhang Xiaoxiao looked at her in confusion.
"You said I am not my parents' biological daughter."
"......"
Zhang Xiaoxiao then remembered that there seemed to be a part like this in the original text.
In the original story, Li Xiumei's background was revealed, and everyone in the village knew about it, which created a rift between the male lead and Li Xiumei.
This plot was instigated by the female antagonist, who liked the male lead but knew he liked Li Xiumei, so she deliberately spread rumors about Li Xiumei to break them apart.
However, now that Zhang Xiaoxiao had become the female antagonist, she did not like the male lead and did not want to break him and Li Xiumei apart.
"Speak up! Did you spread the rumors or not?" Li Xiumei said in exasperation.
Zhang Xiaoxiao looked at her and replied, "I didn't spread any rumors about you."
"If you didn't spread rumors, then how do people in the village know about this?"
"How would I know?"
"You don't know? Then who does?"
"Why don't you ask the village chief? I'm leaving." Zhang Xiaoxiao said as she attempted to close the door.
Li Xiumei blocked the door with her hand, "You can't leave; you need to clarify this."
"I already said it wasn't me; believe it or not."
"If it wasn't you, then who could it be?"
"If you ask me, who should I ask?"
"You......" Li Xiumei was furious; seeing Zhang Xiaoxiao's indifferent expression only fueled her anger further.
She couldn't understand why Zhang Xiaoxiao would spread rumors about her when they had no grievances against each other.
She wanted to confront her but found herself at a loss for words upon seeing her.
Noticing Li Xiumei's silence, Zhang Xiaoxiao said, "Do you have anything else? If not, I'm closing the door."
Li Xiumei remained silent.
Zhang Xiaoxiao shook her head and closed the door.
