Chapter 239 NPC Gu Yan Loses Control
[Please note that the crisis surrounding NPC Zhao Meihua has been resolved, the danger level has been reduced to zero, and NPC Zhao Meihua has been sent back to prison.]
Su Qi almost choked on her coffee when she heard the system's notification.
"Who did it?"
Su Qi immediately thought of Shen Chaohuai. Besides him, she couldn't think of anyone else who would be so ruthless.
[An investigation revealed that NPC Gu Yan orchestrated this incident, but the impact of the incident has no effect on NPC Gu Yan.]
The system's investigations became increasingly accurate, but Su Qi grew more and more worried.
"Feifei, can you investigate the impact of this event on other NPCs?"
[Hmm! Feifei's privileges have probably increased since her master's status rose last time.]
The person who created me was so thoughtful; they even upgraded me... I'm so touched.
"Now, I need to find Gu Yan. I want to know why she did this."
Last time, Gu Yan helped Zheng Ran with her actions. I thought Gu Yan had a change of heart and was on her side, but I didn't expect her to go against me.
……
Unable to get the door opened at the Gu family's old house, Su Qi had no choice but to call Gu Xing: "Is your sister home?"
Gu Xing covered his mouth and whispered, "Yes, but if you're here to see her, forget it. She's in a bad mood right now."
"What are you angry about?"
“My sister has been acting strangely lately, sometimes laughing and sometimes crying, she seems a bit mentally unstable.”
"Since when?"
“It was probably after Mr. Zheng’s accident,” Gu Xing paused, “Don’t tell me I told you these things.”
"Gu Xing, can I ask you a question?" Su Qi thought for a moment, and finally decided to be honest with him.
"You said."
"If your sister and I had a fight and became sworn enemies, whose side would you take?"
That's a bit strange, especially considering the current relationship between Gu Xing and Su Qi.
Gu Xing smiled faintly after hearing this: "Is it necessary to take sides?"
Su Qi thought for a moment: "We don't have to take sides."
"If you two are arguing, I choose not to get involved, because the intervention of a third party will only make things worse."
"You're quite experienced..."
"After all, that's how it's always been."
After a pause, Gu Xing suddenly remembered something: "By the way, are you still being invited to those WeChat groups that were forming small cliques within the industry?"
Su Qi asked, "You went back again?"
Gu Xing shook his head: "If you need, I can send you the group number."
"I just suddenly remembered that when the industry was targeting you before, everyone was discussing methods in the group. You can find some clues by going in."
Su Qi missed this opportunity last time because Gu Xing told her not to go in, but now his change in attitude has confused her.
"You clearly remembered last time..."
"Last time it was because Zheng Ran was still inside, but now they are a disorganized mess. If I'm not mistaken, the conflicts that have accumulated over the years have already erupted in that group."
"Could you please send me the group number?"
After hanging up the phone, which lasted nearly five minutes, Su Qi sensed someone behind her.
"Come out." Her expression tightened, and she turned around to see a short-haired woman in a red dress.
"Long time no see," Gu Yan whispered in her ear, "You're only this close to my brother, why do you need to call him?"
"Su Qi, why are you wearing leather pants again? Female celebrities should dress better like me..."
Gu Yan's voice was deep and husky, with a hint of terror hidden beneath her smile.
"Should I follow your example and grow my hair short to ear length?" Su Qi raised an eyebrow.
"So you already knew." Gu Yan's smile faded.
"I thought your advice to me at first was genuinely out of concern for my status, but I never imagined it was a pre-arranged charade."
"To get revenge on Zheng Ran, to make me look like you to disgust him, I know why you helped me, but what about Zhao Meihua?"
“I took her in out of kindness, and it did not affect your interests.”
Gu Yan's expression hardened: "Su Qi! Don't be so clever! I went through so much trouble to get them in, why did you take her in!"
Su Qi's pupils dilated slightly, incredulous: "Isn't she your cousin? Why are you..."
Before she could finish speaking, Gu Yan grabbed her shoulders excitedly: "I hate them. They refused to help my family when things went wrong, but then they pretended to take me in when I was desperate..."
"You're incredibly kind-hearted. She was treated like that by the Shen family, yet you still took her in..."
Gu Yan took out a knife from her purse, her bloodshot eyes filled with hatred: "Since the pawn won't obey, then kill it..."
Su Qi reached out to block in front of him, and with his other hand quickly grabbed Gu Yan's hand holding the knife, twisting Gu Yan's arms to subdue her.
A deep blue current surged from his fingertips, traveling to Gu Yan's brain.
[Rollback has been initiated for you.]
You have entered the memory sea of NPC Gu Yan.
Su Qi returned to the time when she first entered the Shen family and met Gu Yan after her rebirth.
After Su Qi was put in solitary confinement, Gu Yan once called Shen Qingyue to her room for a private talk.
“Qingyue, you don’t need to hold back. You are the real heiress, while Su Qi is just an adopted daughter.”
"That aunt was just speaking up for Su Qi..."
"If I don't put on a show in front of her, how will she trust me?"
The scene shifts, and Su Qi, following the operation of the rollback system, finds herself in a situation where her adoptive parents are about to lock her up.
It turns out that Gu Yan had discussed with Shen Tiancheng and Zhao Meihua how to deal with Su Qi a long time ago, and the house arrest was also Gu Yan's idea.
Su Qi was no longer surprised to see this. Gu Yan and Zheng Ran could still be together for five years. It's true that two people can't sleep in the same bed. When one side is tricked into breaking down, the other goes crazy and disgusts the other.
The rollback took us back to an earlier point in time.
[Master, this is Gu Yan's sea of memories from when Shen Yu appeared.]
She sat opposite Shen Tiancheng and Zhao Meihua: "Let me be frank, in a family like ours, it would be morally damaging for a girl to show her face in public."
"Then... does my cousin have any tricks up her sleeve?"
Gu Yan curled her lips: "Build a cellar under the villa."
Shen Tiancheng and Zhao Meihua immediately understood, but hesitated to make a decision to lock Shen Yu up.
until……
Gu Yan seized the opportunity when Shen Yu's original body was sealed away, and made Shen Yu look foolish in front of Shen Tiancheng and Zhao Meihua, finally managing to lock her up.
Su Qi never imagined that Gu Yan was the instigator of the whole thing.
The subsequent rewinds came one after another, and she no longer wanted to watch them. Even when she was targeted by various celebrities during her time on the dating reality show, Gu Yan was always there to interfere.
She stirred up conflict between Su Qi and various other people, then disappeared without a trace afterward. She was treacherous, cunning, and two-faced, even deceiving Su Qi.
She really thought that teaming up against Zheng Ran was helping her, but in reality, Gu Yan just wanted to use her to take revenge.
[Rollback complete.]
Back at the scene, Su Qi took the knife from Gu Yan's hand, and she was unable to struggle.
But Gu Yan looked at Su Qi as if she had something under control: "I see clearly. You think you can erase my memory? You think you can do whatever you want just because you have the ability? Let me tell you, I'm watching with my eyes wide open."
A powerful NPC can indeed break free from the limitations of their master's abilities, but this awakening did not bring her any benefits.
[Master, you can't be soft-hearted and leave any future trouble. She already knows your secret.]
"Gu Yan, what exactly do you hate? Why do you have to interfere in the life and death of everyone around you?"
