VBNWDW - Chapter 149

Chapter 149

The first lesson for every executor is to stand beneath the transparent monument that towers like a skyscraper, looking up at the great executors who have contributed to the stability of the planes, and resting their gaze for a long time on the number one position.

That is an excellent executor who has experienced countless Quick Transmigration missions. That string of innumerable points is her medal.

Some admire, some envy, yet no one dares to think of surpassing her. After all, looking at that string of points, one really can't even muster the thought of chasing. But these people did not include Luo Yueqing.

The first moment she saw that string of numbers, she made that person her target.

This was not unrealistic arrogance, but stemmed from confidence in herself. In fact, she was indeed extremely excellent. In just a few hundred years, she surpassed more than half of her seniors, firmly fixing her name in the front row.

But even so, she was still very far from that person—so far that it seemed separated by a galaxy, impossible to cross no matter how hard she tried.

Although she hadn't forgotten this notion, Luo Yueqing also understood the difficulty involved. This made her very curious: what kind of figure was that person?

She spent ten thousand points to buy all of the other party's data. Apart from the title "001", there were only mission records from tens of thousands of small worlds.

Luo Yueqing almost laughed in anger, secretly muttering that this person really valued their privacy.

Personal data on the System could be hidden by spending points. For example, many people would make many laughable mistakes during their first missions, worthy of being black history on their life résumé. Thus, they used points to hide them to avoid being seen by others.

There were also height, weight, and appearance. Some wanted to hide them, while others wished they could bold and highlight "184". The System didn't care about the rest; as long as the points were sufficient, anything could be realized.

However, someone like 001 who only had a title was extremely rare. At least, Luo Yueqing had only seen that one so far.

Surprisingly, however, the other party hadn't hidden their initial mission data.

Luo Yueqing didn't hesitate for a second. She clicked in immediately, and then it was one after another, three days and three nights without sleep or rest.

Finally, she collapsed into her soft bed, lamenting from the bottom of her heart. Truly worthy of being the person regarded as the perfect teaching example. Precise to the millimeter. Every choice seemed deeply considered, like a robot that would absolutely never make a mistake.

But she couldn't be a robot, or rather, even a robot couldn't compare to her.

This is also why the System chooses them instead of deploying countless simulated humans. Because every target to be contacted is a living, breathing human with their own thoughts and ideas, it is difficult for a machine to truly simulate and successfully complete the mission.

The advantage of an executor lies in being human, yet their defeat also lies in being human. After all, being human means having emotions and one's own thoughts, which can affect subsequent missions. Quite a few people fail missions because of emotions.

001, however, was somewhere between the two, taking the essence of both for herself. She had the decisiveness of a robot, yet she also made target characters willing to submit, regarding her as a close friend or teacher, and heeding her advice.

This made her increasingly curious about what kind of person the other party actually was.

Although the other party asked the System to conceal information, it couldn't stop other people's little tricks.

Luo Yueqing spent a few extra points and obtained 001's subsequent itinerary. Whenever the other party appeared in the center, Luo Yueqing would "happen" to arrive.

Separated by a short distance, Luo Yueqing was surrounded by the crowd, quietly sizing up the other party out of the corner of her eye.

Waist-length black hair, rare pale gray-blue eyes, and the coldness surrounding her body were this person's most striking trademarks.

This fit Luo Yueqing's imagination of her very well, especially those facial contours exquisite to the millimeter, like a white jade beauty carved by a master craftsman.

It made people unable to restrain themselves from rushing over time and again, looking over there through the crowd.

She didn't know when she lost control, but Luo Yueqing began to be unsatisfied with such a distance.

She secretly approached her, deliberately moving her Bio-pod next to the other party's, hoping for the moment when they would coincidentally finish a mission and exit the pods together.

However, this situation was extremely rare. After all, the Quick Transmigration worlds and mission types the two chose were different. Fortunately, Luo Yueqing "died" relatively quickly each time, so she could lie in the Bio-pod and wait for the faint sound from next door.

Thus, through Luo Yueqing's efforts, the two finally stood face-to-face once.

The usually confident and proud person had shifting eyes, setting off small fireworks in her heart, exploding into the sky in a series. The carefully designed dialogue couldn't be spoken. In the end, she could only watch helplessly as the other party left, squeezing out a sentence: "She's actually taller than me."

It happened that a friend came up and looked at the other party's retreating figure with Luo Yueqing, laughing, "Why was your mission so slow this time? According to the past, you should have finished in the morning."

Before Luo Yueqing could explain, she continued, "Isn't that person very cold? In all these years, I haven't seen her greet anyone. She's always alone."

Only when the other party's figure disappeared into the distance did Luo Yueqing come back to her senses, muttering to herself, "Then how can I make her notice me?"

The friend scratched her head. Even after racking her brains, she could only come up with: "Probably someone who can threaten her ranking? She's so strong; she probably only likes the strong."

"Is that so..." Luo Yueqing was thoughtful.

That friend lowered her hand and was just about to ask Luo Yueqing to leave, only to see this person crawl into the Bio-pod once again. She was actually starting a mission again.

"Hey... are you crazy?" The friend's eyes widened, but she could only watch the Bio-pod activate once more.

Time passed, and years flew by.

Luo Yueqing's ranking rose continuously, stepping on the heads of excellent seniors until she reached second place. Her speed was so fast and her ability so strong that even the System, which had always been devoid of emotion, broke precedent to praise her and award her an unprecedented badge.

That day, she stood on the podium and looked down. A dense crowd filled the center, casting many gazes, but the one she wanted was not there.

Her friend said that since a few years ago, the other party rarely participated in such activities. The first-place trophy would be delivered to her room proactively.

The friend revealed an "of course" expression. After all, anyone would get tired of receiving trophies for so many years. Piling these things together could fill a room; she had long been too lazy to participate in such events.

Luo Yueqing was silent for a long time. She was depressed for several days, not taking missions but staying in her room, watching the other party's mission videos over and over again.

Life returned to calm. Even if she didn't deliberately approach, the two had countless opportunities to brush past each other. But it was just a fleeting moment; her peripheral vision lingered for a long time, then quietly withdrew without a trace.

Until two people accidentally travelled to the same world. Luo Yueqing was the White Moonlight who should have left early; she was the gentle and respectful Civil Minister.

Perhaps unwillingness was at work, but many actions exceeded their original boundaries.

Luo Yueqing couldn't help but approach her, holding her sleeve and following behind her.

She wanted her to hold her in her arms, and when looking up at the fireworks on the city wall, she saved her peripheral vision for the other party.

Luo Yueqing called her Teacher and accompanied her for decades, thinking this was enough. Until the other party fell ill in her arms did she suddenly realize her regret.

She should have pulled her into her embrace, kissed her chattering lips when the other party was teaching seriously, and pressed the other party onto the desk when she stayed up late handling government affairs.

But she did nothing, pretending to be a good student who admired her teacher, until white hair grew at both their temples, wasting more than half a lifetime.

So when Luo Yueqing returned to the center and opened the Bio-pod, her first reaction was to find 001 and make it clear to her. But she learned the news that she was being punished by the System, and a bold idea emerged.

Luo Yueqing came to the world where she was being punished. She had the System seal her memories, discarded her timidity, exchanged it for her once unrestrained and proud self, and boldly approached her.

"I will apply to the System for marriage in a while. Will you agree?"

The voice fell, pulling Luo Yueqing back to reality. Her eyes widened suddenly, and she stuttered in fright: "Wh-what are you saying!"

The hands gripping the blanket were full of sweat, soaking the fluff.

Luo Yueqing had many things she wanted to say. Fireworks were secretly going off in her heart, exploding continuously in her limbs and bones, making it impossible to speak a complete sentence. Her mind was left blank, blurting out answers on instinct alone.

Fortunately, the other party didn't mind, tilting her head up to kiss her lips.

It felt the same as she had imagined—ice-cold like the person herself, carrying the scent of mint toothpaste and the milky smell of having just bathed, drilling into Luo Yueqing's lips and teeth together.

It was like soaking in hot water, covered by steaming mist. She didn't know what she was thinking at all. All assumptions were voided, leaving only a ringing in her ears—the lingering aftereffects of exploding fireworks.

She heard the other party asking over and over: "Are you willing?"

"Will you agree?"

Luo Yueqing didn't answer. In the end, it wasn't clear who fell down first. The two lay in the soft carpet, just like before. Their breathing gradually became messy. Luo Yueqing pressed onto the other party and "fiercely" bit her lip.

She voiced all her previous dissatisfaction: "You blockhead, dummy, big idiot. I stood right in front of you, and you didn't even look at me."

"You didn't come to the ceremony either. Is being first place so amazing? Can first place just ignore second place?"

"Do you know how hard it is to stay motionless in the Bio-pod! Yet you just turned your head and left!"

The other party sincerely admitted to each mistake and pulled Luo Yueqing's hand downwards. Her previous experience was already rich enough; the dull block of wood was starting to get enlightened, knowing what kind of pleasing was most effective.

Sure enough, that person's heart softened. Her cursing grievances were attracted by something else and then completely thrown to the back of her mind.

The next month, the Plane Maintenance Organization was in an uproar.

"What! That person actively applied for marriage? And the System agreed?"

"I heard that person proposed personally! She begged for several days before the other party relented."

Two executors looked shocked, standing frozen in place for a long time without moving.

"Hot sale, hot sale! For just one point, a mere one point, you can know the two or three things that have to be said between Boss 001 and God Luo. Second place bravely chases love, actually making the first-place Boss bow down!" Someone walked past the two holding a small booklet, shouting continuously.

"Why did crying come from the Luo family in the middle of the night?"

"The villa has been uninhabited for many days, and the rooms have gathered dust. Yet the long-missing Boss 001 calmly appeared in God Luo's home. According to reliable news provided by God Luo's good friend, that day she saw Boss 001 climbing up from the sofa with disheveled clothes, holding her waist..."

The two executors looked at each other, stepped forward resolutely, and roared together: "I want a copy!"
