Chapter 290 - 10.31
James Grind felt that he might have been playing with fire here. He thought Huang Shu wouldn’t have any romantic interest in him in this cycle. Because he didn’t initiate any conversation besides that one time at the charity party.
[For real, though, how could Huang Shu suddenly have any romantic interest in me? We literally only talked once, and I’m not even friendly at that time.]
[Pupa: Hold on, let me download an extra file. This world is really too complicated.]
Pupa downloaded an extra file and then checked the extra background. Then it replied to Yunyu.
[Pupa: Hmm... based on extra world background. Huang Shu and James Grind was a lover in the previous cycle. In some cycle, James Grind did not receive the mission to kill Long Zhen, like when the spy/assassin before you, Pan Ming, was stuck as a romantic partner with Long Zhen. In that kind of cycle, James Grind would get entangled with Huang Shu instead. And it seems that Huang Shu and James Grind were a perfect match.]
[Pupa: So in those worlds when Long Zhen didn’t meet James Grind, Huang Shu would fill James Grind’s chrysanthemum instead. And they live happily in peace, even more than Long Zhen and James Grind.]
[So that is why Huang Shu seems to be entangled with James Grind even in that cycle when we do not know the true mission of this world and Long Zhen’s identity as transmigrator.]
[It is pitiful, though. James Grid and Huang Shu were supposed to be real lovebirds. But because Long Zhen is here, they become separated by fate.]
Pupa continued to read the world background about Huang Shu while Yunyu rambled inside his head nonstop. Then Pupa noticed something that also shocked itself as a system. Pupa glanced at clueless Yunyu and thought this wouldn’t be the best time because he might be too shocked.
James Grind gulped as his forehead started making cold sweat. He thought that Huang Shu would bring him to Huang Mansion or back to the city. But it seemed they only drove further and further from the city.
James Grind glanced at Huang Shu with anxiety in his eyes, "M—Master Huang, I really don’t have value for you to keep. It’s best for you to just drop me and leave. If you want to provoke Master Long Zhen, there are better ways than just taking me..."
