The other party was dumbfounded but Gu Jianan had already walked out wearing his clothes and sunglasses, as he came to Ye Chen’s side.

The muscles throughout his entire body were tense, exhibiting obvious nervousness.

Ye Chen raised her hand and pulled on his hand. Gu Jianan paused a bit. Ye Chen patted the back of his hand and said lightly, “Don’t be afraid.”

Gu Jianan didn’t say anything. With this person here, in a flash, he was actually not afraid anymore.

He felt like this person had a kind of magical power. Every time it was her that pulled him out. The first time, she pulled him along as he ran out of his house. She opened up a whole new world for him and told him that, turns out he could still live like this.

The second time she pulled him out, he still had blood in his palm, but she didn’t care. She supported his almost paralyzed body as she calmly and reliably told him, “Don’t be afraid.”

He didn’t know why he trusted her, and he didn’t know why he felt like she wouldn’t betray him. He was dragged back by her to her house. He took a shower, and then laid on the bed, his entire body was shaking. He could remember Zhang Shan’s appearance covered with blood, and the feeling of the knife piercing the flesh as soon as he closed his eyes.

He was so frightened that he couldn’t speak. Ye Chen brought milk as she walked in, and saw him trembling on the bed.

She walked over and helped him up.

“Drink some milk.” Gu Jianan brought it over and gulped it down. Ye Chen saw that he was still trembling so she leaned over, patting him on the back, and comforted him.

But Gu Jianan still couldn’t stop shaking, he was too scared.

This was the first time he had killed someone. Even if he felt that he had already planned it well enough, he was still afraid. Ye Chen thought for a bit before she simply leaned over and hugged him.

When the warmth poured into his body, Gu Jianan was bewildered and finally stopped shaking. He leaned his chin onto Ye Chen’s shoulder,and felt this person gently stroke his back over and over as she slowly said, “Don’t be afraid, I’m here.”

“I killed someone…”

“It’s alright,” Ye Chen comforted him, “Don’t be afraid. They are bad people. It’s okay.”

“Host, I feel like you’ve deviated from your teachings?” The system clicked its tongue, “You should tell him that he should not kill.”

“They are already dead.” Ye Chen did not respond back to the system, instead she spoke to Gu Jianan, “Jianan, they are not good people. They are very bad. You are wrong in killing them, but since they are already dead, then don’t think too much about it.”

“I killed someone…” Gu Jianan closed his eyes and finally voiced out his fear and worry, “Are you going to, will you not want me anymore…”

Ye Chen froze for a moment, as a sharp pain pierced her heart.

This teenager really caused one to feel sorry for him.

She probably would never know the type of joy and happiness he felt when she handed him that note at the window and when she ran out of the alley while she dragged him.

But it was because he had gotten it before, that’s why he was too afraid to lose it.

Gu Jianan knew very clearly that he could no longer go back to how it was in the past. He could only act like a drowning man, clutching the last life-saving straw; even if this straw didn’t understand exactly how important she really was.

But even if Ye Chen didn’t understand the extent of her importance, she knew about his dependence.

She originally came to this world just for him.

So she hugged him and said softly, “Jianan, I will not abandon you.”

“I came to this world just to meet you.”

Gu Jianan didn’t speak, he couldn’t hold back anymore, yowling and crying out loud.

His tears fell on Ye Chen’s shoulders. Suddenly the system notified, “The monitored blackening value is rapidly decreasing.”

“80%……70%……60%……20%……10%……9%……”

“80%…70%…60%…20%…10%…9%…”

“3%……2%……1%!”

“3%…2%…1%!”

The system exclaimed, “It’s actually only 1%! Host, you are too good.”

“Although this task failed, but having exceedingly completed the task of reducing the blackening value, the main system has decided to reward you 10 points.”

“Please accept the next stage’s task.”

“Task 1: Protect the villain’s three views, let the villain smoothly grow up, and reduce the blackening value to 0.”

“Task 2: Plan ahead, stop the villains from falling in love with Ye Min, and stop Ye Min from falling in love with Zhou Yucheng.”

“Please accept the tasks.”
