Chapter 205 Keep working hard
"We'll talk about this later. Time is running out. The goddess above is carrying out massive reforms, and she might catch us anytime soon!" The child impatiently slammed his hand on the table.
Mitsuha knew the situation was getting worse. Even the blank space hadn't fared well against the goddess, so what about those of them who were hiding...?
They might die even faster.
"I will do my best," Mitsuha said in a deep voice, gripping the object in her hand tightly, her eyes flashing.
--------------
Qingyu thought she would return to the system space after disappearing, but unexpectedly she entered a white passage in the blink of an eye. Before she could figure out what was going on, the scene changed, and the next moment, she found herself in an ancient alley.
Qingyu looked around at the antique buildings, but her heart was not greatly stirred.
She looked down at herself—
Hmm, she was dressed in a pink ruqun (a type of traditional Chinese dress), an ancient costume, and her head also seemed to be decorated. Noticing something was wrong with her face, she touched it with her bare hand and found that she was wearing a mask again.
He couldn't help but frown, wanting to take off the mask.
At this moment, a delicate woman ran towards her crying, followed by a group of fierce-looking servants.
The woman was also wearing a mask, which had no special shape, except that the character "柳" (willow) was engraved on it.
Before Qingyu could figure out what to do, the woman saw Qingyu and hid behind her as if she had grasped a lifeline.
"Qingyu! Help me! They've kidnapped me, and I'll lose all my points!"
Points? What are those? Isn't this the ancient world?
Before she could process the memories, Qingyu didn't know how to deal with them. She stared intently at the group of people in front of her, her watery eyes particularly captivating. Even the servants were stunned into silence.
Meanwhile, the internet was in an uproar.
"Such beautiful eyes..."
"Yes, although this woman is a bit vicious, at least she has pretty eyes. I just don't know if she's ugly or not?"
"Definitely ugly! What's the use of having pretty eyes if you're so brainless..."
……
The internet was buzzing with excitement, but in the shadows, Gu Qiwen felt a strange unease creeping into his heart. He was also momentarily stunned by those eyes and couldn't react for a moment.
Seeing the insults on the screen, he instinctively felt uneasy, rubbed his temples, and ultimately decided not to help.
Never mind, the purpose of bringing this woman here was simply to highlight the other celebrities.
Everyone watched in silence.
The servants were still very professional. After a moment of distraction, the leader shouted, "Young lady, don't meddle in other people's business. This girl is a runaway maid from our household."
"Qingyu! Aren't you rich? Help me!" the woman behind her called out in a coquettish voice, but Qingyu could still clearly hear the arrogant and self-righteous tone in her voice.
Although she didn't understand the situation, Qingyu calmly broke free from the woman's grasp and stepped aside, saying, "Fine, you can arrest me."
Everyone: "..."
Is this person really going to give up entirely? Have they completely abandoned any semblance of a kind image?
The woman was also stunned, her disbelief turning into ecstasy.
Oh dear, with Qingyu as a comparison, people online will definitely praise her and belittle Qingyu!
She suppressed the upward curve of her lips and continued running backwards, feigning panic.
After exchanging bewildered glances, the servants finally gave chase.
With no one left in the alley, Qingyu finally had time to process the memories.
This world... is a dating reality show world; in short, the original owner is currently filming a reality show.
No wonder it's both period drama and points-based system.
However... since both the male and female leads are celebrities, and everyone already knows what they look like, is it really necessary for them to wear masks?
Qingyu didn't understand, but she respected it.
The original owner, Cao Qingyu, was a newcomer who had just debuted. She was so new that she didn't have a single fan, a single photo, or even any popularity. She was just an ordinary homebody!
The reason she got the opportunity to appear on a variety show was because she won a prize in a lottery. She thought it was fake, but who knew she actually won and actually needed to appear on a variety show.
The original owner initially chose to refuse to show up, but later she saw her idol, Murong Han, and this was the only opportunity to get close to her idol!
The original owner didn't want to give up!
However, she clearly underestimated human nature and the malice of everyone.
Qingyu clenched her fingers, feeling rather uneasy, because of the memories that followed...
In most cases, the original owner of the body suffered rejection and disgust from everyone, partly because the original owner did not socialize for a long time and had problems with interpersonal skills.
Another reason is that she is just a stepping stone, a stepping stone for everyone to gain traffic, and no one cares about her thoughts.
They hoped the original owner would be embarrassed, thus highlighting the goodness of others.
In the end, the original owner had nothing but a bad reputation.
Qingyu's current timeline has only just begun, but the original owner has already incurred people's dislike.
The current situation is an ancient role-playing game. Each person has two hundred cash, which is equivalent to two hundred taels of silver in ancient times. The role they play must develop according to the plot to earn points.
For example, the woman just now is Mu Ran, a supporting female character in the story. Her role is a maid who is being chased and needs to pay money to save herself, which is why she asks Qing Yu for help.
Qingyu's identity is that of a courtesan.
It's quite ironic, considering the original owner was rumored to be unattractive, yet she still became a courtesan.
Compared to Mu Ran, who had spent all his money early on, the original owner was always cautious and kept to himself, so he didn't spend much at all.
Besides resolving a customer harassment issue, she now has 180 taels left, which means she has the fewest points.
Why isn't she moving? Is she paralyzed with fear?
"The person upstairs is talking nonsense. Our Mu Ran didn't scare her!"
"Ah, Murong Han is so handsome~"
……
The screen remained lively, and Qingyu used the system's perspective to see everything clearly.
He could also see everyone's disgust for him.
If she were to remove her mask now, she would surely turn the tide and completely overturn her image.
However, Qingyu felt that the time was not yet right.
Since everyone in the story has completely manipulated the original owner, then...
Now that the hunters have changed, I wonder if they will accept it?
Qingyu chuckled, composed herself, and slowly headed out of the alley.
The original owner didn't come out today just for fun; she was arranged to meet a rich young man and thus climb the social ladder.
Frankly speaking, this arrangement itself is problematic; it's nothing more than repeatedly rubbing the original owner's self-esteem into the ground.
But Qingyu is not afraid.
Thinking about the upcoming plot, Qingyu slowed her pace. Just as she stepped out of the alley, she heard a commotion.
Not far away, a "frightened" horse was galloping wildly on the road, and pedestrians were scrambling to avoid it.
A young man in red was riding on horseback. Although his face was not clearly visible, his demeanor was spirited and full of vigor.
As soon as Qingyu appeared, the boy rode his horse straight towards her location.
