Chapter 70 Unable to Respond
Bai Li hurriedly entered her room and locked the door tightly behind her.
This is bad! This is extremely bad!
Back in her room, Shirakawa frantically reflected on her actions.
Reflect on which step you went wrong.
Although I knew I would eventually crash and burn, I didn't expect it to happen so quickly!
After all, favorability is not something that can be controlled by one's own subjective will, and it is difficult to guarantee that everyone's favorability can be maintained at the level they want.
It's one thing for Ying Xiangyang to be here, but why is Jingye also here...?
Jingye was even more excessive than Ying Xiangyang, exceeding the limit and almost reaching the 80-point mark of favorability.
This was completely different from what Bai Li had expected—safely gaining favor points.
Bai Li guessed that it meant she hadn't gotten an A.
In that situation, if I had succeeded and taken that crucial step, Jingye's favorability rating might have soared to over 80 points, and it would have been possible for the two of us to become lovers.
But people should at least not, and should not...
I guess I'm still in a superior-subordinate relationship with Jingye.
This is so taboo!
Bai Li couldn't help but recall Jing Ye's appearance again.
A restrained expression, a lingering gaze, and tears sliding down one's cheek.
That feeling of a top-tier man being moved and infatuated with you.
A secret, unspoken, intense emotion.
It's so beautiful it's dizzying.
Bai Li unconsciously placed her hand on her chest, trying to calm her wildly beating heart.
Beauty can be a trap!
This is a test for veteran cadres!
mean!
That's despicable!
Heaven knows how much effort Bai Li, who has never been in a relationship and has always had a tendency to be a bit of a fangirl, had to put in to convince herself to stay calm.
But Xiao Hao was still backstage laughing heartily, constantly making fun of himself:
"Haha, you're just scaring yourself~"
"How can one find a way to have it all, to be true to both the Buddha and the beloved!"
When I think of you, you're at the ends of the earth; when I think of you, you're right before my eyes; when I think of you, you're in my mind; when I think of you, you're in my heart.
In the end, she even started singing, successfully interrupting Bai Li's chaotic thoughts.
"Xiao Hao!" Bai Li's forehead veins throbbed, and for the first time, she regretted letting it use the 6G internet.
Xiao Hao was puzzled: "The favorability rating is already 79 points! We're just a little bit away from having the first person with a favorability rating of 80 points! That was clearly a perfect opportunity!"
Bai Li took a deep breath and said slowly, "Because I don't want to hurt him."
Bai Li is not as carefree as Xiao Hao.
The importance of favorability ratings is self-evident.
It is closely related to Xiao Hao's upgrade, and even more closely linked to the lottery of the Wanxiang Wheel.
Even the slightest mistake can have unbearable consequences.
Once Jingye and Jingye cross that forbidden line and become intimate lovers, the balance of their emotions will inevitably be severely disrupted.
Her goal is not just to gain Jingye's favor, but to win over more people.
If she accepts Jingye's feelings and establishes a close romantic relationship, how can she feel at ease pursuing the affections of other people?
Furthermore, if emotions get out of control during this process, causing the situation to spiral out of control again, what a heavy blow that would be for Jingye.
She couldn't imagine it.
If one acts impulsively out of romantic feelings, it will not only ruin Xiao Hao's progress but also hurt Jing Ye.
Emotion and reason clashed fiercely, but in the end, reason prevailed.
Xiao Hao sighed in disappointment: "Alright, then host, would you like to view Shi Shui's memory fragments?"
Xiao Hao reminded her that Bai Li had just obtained Shi Shui's character card as well.
Although she wasn't in the mood, Shirai still flipped through the card album to take a look.
Shi Shui's character card also appeared in the card album, located as the third card in the album.
Shi Shui's card design is also highly distinctive.
The background of the card is a meadow by a stream in the early morning, with water in the center of the picture, and behind it is a vast blue sky and white clouds, with fluffy clouds that change into various shapes.
The boy wore a loose white cotton short-sleeved shirt. A gentle breeze blew by, causing the hem of his shirt to sway softly, and a few strands of hair on his forehead to flutter in the wind.
The boy had fair skin and clear, bright eyes. He tilted his head slightly, a faint smile playing on his lips. He gently held a light blue paper airplane in one hand. The airplane's wings were almost transparent in the sunlight and swayed naturally in the breeze, its graceful form suggesting it was about to take flight at any moment.
If this were a game with a magical theme, then this card would definitely be of the wind attribute!
The entire card design is dynamic and refreshing.
Bai Li recalled their first meeting; the boy's eyes were filled with confusion and unease, but now they radiated a sunny smile. Despite the many difficulties he had faced, Shi Shui still retained his precious youthful spirit.
Although she is still very thin, her eyes now show more love and anticipation for life.
Not bad, not bad. Bai Li couldn't help but feel a sense of relief, as she felt that this card had boundless vitality and energy.
—A boy like the wind.
For some reason, the lyrics suddenly started playing in my head:
"Whether it is the wind that moves or the flag that moves, is the cycle of reincarnation any different?"
Bai Li almost sang it out loud.
Oh no, I finally caught Xiao Hao's bad habit of starting to sing all the time!
Bai Li quickly banished the lyrics from her mind and turned her attention to the details on the back of the card.

—No wonder he's a top student.
After reading Shi Shui's detailed introduction, Bai Li could roughly understand why Shi Shui was able to become the top scholar in the imperial examination back then.
What did that sentence say?
It's something that every homeroom teacher talks about all the time.
Xiao Hao immediately answered, "Learning relies on initiative!"
"Ah, right!" Bai Li smiled knowingly; that was exactly what she wanted to say.
Shi Shui's learning ability showed Bai Li endless potential, making her feel even more that her decision to send Shi Shui back to school was absolutely right. Such a promising talent should be nurtured and trained!
After looking at Shi Shui's character cards, Bai Li gently put them back into the card album.
Upon seeing this, Xiao Hao let out a puzzled "Huh?" and reminded him, "Host, you haven't looked at the memory fragments yet."
Bai Li shook her head, her voice tinged with weariness: "Let's not watch it for now."
One reason is that I'm not in the mood to watch it.
Another reason is that Shirai was a little scared.
To be honest, one of the reasons why Jingye almost lost control tonight was because she had seen Jingye's memory fragments.
It was precisely because she knew that Jingye had undergone inhumanly rigorous training that she felt so sorry for him.
Seeing him blame himself for not being able to control his tears, Bai Li simply couldn't ignore his behavior.
Reviewing memory fragments is like establishing a deeper emotional connection. It can help you understand the root causes behind their personality and behavior, and help you gain more goodwill.
However, excessive understanding may make one more susceptible to emotional entanglement, making it difficult to extricate oneself and potentially leading to a loss of control of the situation.
Ultimately, it is a double-edged sword.
