The system forced me to brush his resentment points.

This guy is insane!!!

Before I could even process what happened, he grabbed my waist again and leaped into the air. This time, it was even more thrilling, because he wouldn’t let me cling to his neck.

The wind whistled past my ears, occasionally slapping a few leaves onto my face. I didn’t dare open my eyes.

“Still don’t want your eyes?” Valerius suddenly spoke again, making me jump.

I opened my eyes and saw we were at an inn. He walked right in, and I quickly followed.

He ordered two dishes: one cabbage and one… green vegetable!

I swear…

Seriously, dude, do you have to be so cheap?

“It’s not me being cheap. You’re not doing any work, why should you eat well?” He looked at me, a smirk playing on his lips.

How did he know what I was thinking again? He was definitely cheap, and he was trying to justify it.

“Detecting an increase in the villain’s hatred points. Currently at 70%.”

Hearing the system’s electronic voice, I was even more speechless. Why were the hatred points randomly increasing? Did he want me to eat a full meal before I died? But first, let me actually *eat* a full meal. This wouldn’t even fill a tooth cavity, it’s a joke!

I still ate the bowl of rice. Lying in bed in the middle of the night, I recalled the plot.

I remembered the original villainess died tonight. So now that I haven’t died, will it change the story?

“Host, the main plot will not change. Other details are unknown.”

The system’s sudden voice startled me. I immediately asked, “You mean Valerius will still die by suicide, just like in the original book?”

When I first read the book, I was surprised that Valerius ended up committing suicide.

“Unknown. The main plot revolves around the male and female leads’ romance. Valerius is merely a supporting character.”

My mind raced. I suddenly remembered that something was supposed to happen tonight.

I pulled on my shoes and socks and bolted out the door.

When I opened Valerius’s room door, the candle was still burning, but no one was inside. I whispered, “Valerius?”

No one answered. Had the story shifted? I was about to turn away when suddenly, the back of my head throbbed.
