CHAPTER 372: CHAPTER 372: ILLUSION REALM (MO JIAO) PART 9

Just saw the Cannibal Flower with a domineering stance, asking a person in black with a hushed voice: "Is everything arranged?"

"Boss, everything is arranged," replied the person in black.

Upon hearing this, the Cannibal Flower smirked triumphantly: "Xiao President, oh Xiao President, let’s see how you escape my grasp this time."

"A dead Beast Husband, and you’re still so hung up on him?"

"And the radish he left behind! What’s so good about raising it!"

"Tonight, I’ll make you mine and sell off that damned radish too!"

The Cannibal Flower, overly confident while muttering to itself about its plans in the hallway, had no idea Mo Jiao had heard everything from the corner.

Mo Jiao stood silently for a moment.

In the end, he couldn’t help but enter the Star System Map.

Mo Jiao: @Xiao Jinsheng, where are you?

Xiao Jinsheng: In the bedroom~ Baby.

Mo Jiao: Someone’s planning to drug you.

Xiao Jinsheng: ??? Are you the one trying to drug me?

Xiao Jinsheng: You’ve been ignoring the group chats for so long, what script are you following this time?

Mo Jiao: Rebirth script, the blackened runaway Baihua reincarnated as a substitute Black Flower.

Xiao Jinsheng: ... Have you reincarnated to kill me for revenge?

Mo Jiao: No, I plan to become a substitute to make you fall in love with me again, then surprise you by revealing I’m the runaway Baihua.

Xiao Jinsheng: ???

Xiao Jinsheng: ... Sometimes, I really want to open the Illusion System’s mind to see what on earth it’s thinking.

Xiao Jinsheng: So who is trying to drug me?

Mo Jiao: The Cannibal Flower, I overheard it in the hallway.

Mo Jiao: The Cannibal Flower also plans to sell our radish kid.

Caicai: Sell me? That stupid flower better watch out, I’m going to bust it up right now!

Xiao Jinsheng: @Mo Jiao, since you’re the substitute, come to my room and find me.

Mo Jiao: Why don’t you come to find me?

Xiao Jinsheng: Makes sense, the mourning President Xiao, drinking in sorrow after losing his beloved husband, accidentally enters the room of a visiting Black Flower after being drugged by the Cannibal Flower.

Xiao Jinsheng: As the regretful president sees the Black Flower who looks just like the Baihua, he mistakenly thinks it’s his resurrected beloved, and under the influence of the drug and alcohol, he impulsively stays with Black Flower.

Xiao Jinsheng: Mo Baby, you really understand the plot, you even arrange things better than the Illusion System.

Mo Jiao stayed silent.

Only responded to Xiao Jinsheng with a question mark after a long pause.

Mo Jiao: I didn’t say a word more, this is all your own imagination.

But despite these words, Mo Jiao still followed the plot Xiao Jinsheng just made up, waiting in the guest room for Xiao Jinsheng.

Sure enough, the hallway was noisy with commotion.

The quiet guest room area could only catch glimpses of the moonlight falling through the floor-to-ceiling windows.

Just as Mo Jiao was growing impatient and about to inquire in the Star System Map about Xiao Jinsheng, he heard the sound of the door opening.

He turned and was met with Xiao Jinsheng, cheeks flushed and eyes glazed from drunkenness.

"Did you really drink?" Smelling the strong scent of alcohol, Mo Jiao frowned and asked.

"I didn’t drink." Xiao Jinsheng shut the door behind with one hand: "Alcohol doesn’t taste as good as juice. I just poured half a glass of wine on my clothes."

As she spoke, Xiao Jinsheng excitedly rushed forward.

Reaching out, she grabbed Mo Jiao’s head of snow-white long hair.

She asked, surprised: "Why did your hair change color?"

"Script," Mo Jiao obscurely replied to avoid getting shocked.

Of course, he wasn’t afraid of getting shocked.

He was concerned about breaking character and losing his already scarce Illusion Points.

"You... look like someone." Xiao Jinsheng, her fingers twirling Mo Jiao’s long hair, gazed at him with nostalgia.

Smelling the scent of wine on her clothes, she plunged directly into Mo Jiao’s embrace.

Her arms wrapped around his neck, she excitedly rubbed her face against his chest: "Mo Baihua, is that you, have you come back to see me?"

"Come back, I will never imprison you again."

"As long as you can come back, I’ll give you the freedom you want."

"As long as you can resurrect, I’ll give you all the Illusion Points you want, starting with a hundred billion, is that enough?"

"Sure," Mo Jiao immediately agreed: "Transfer me a billion first."

[Stop, stop, stop! Cut, cut, cut!]

The Illusion System appeared at a convenient time.

A black fog with flame-shaped smoke puffed from its head.

It was obviously furious.

[This time you are the resurrected dead Baihua, you’re dead, but your love for the dominator hasn’t died!]

[You love the dominating person, how can you be tempted by Illusion Points?]

"You’re sick," Mo Jiao confidently stated.

Before the Illusion System broke down, Mo Jiao began to explain: "I just resurrected after my death, right?"

[Right]

The Illusion System nodded.

"How did I die? I was angered to death by the dominator and the flirtatious genius," Mo Jiao continued.

[That’s... that’s right]

The Illusion System was still confused about what Mo Jiao was getting at.

"So that means, even if I loved, my heart was still filled with hatred right after resurrection," Mo Jiao explained further.

"Even if this body’s soul is me, isn’t my identity another?"

"At least in the dominator’s eye, the present Black Flower cannot be their already deceased Baihua."

"But the dominator still, under the influence of alcohol, got together with the Black Flower, even wanting the Black Flower to be a stand-in."

"Do I look like a masochist?"

"Answer me! Illusion System!"

[Then... then so what, the script is like this, you must act according to the script]

The Illusion System was stubborn, completely ignoring Mo Jiao’s analysis.

"Of course, I’ll act according to the script," Mo Jiao responded.

After all, as long as the dominator is Xiao Jinsheng, even if it’s the finale of the script, he would still end up happily with Xiao Jinsheng.

But that doesn’t mean he has to be controlled by the silly Illusion System.

"But how to act, and in what manner, as long as it doesn’t violate the character setting, is up to me to decide," Mo Jiao sneered: "Think wisely before pointing fingers at me."

[You! You’re too much!]

[Just act!]

[I warn you, if you act poorly, this time your Illusion Points will be deducted by three times]

"It’s breaking down, it’s breaking down," Xiao Jinsheng mocked as she snuggled into Mo Jiao’s embrace, stirring things up.

[Ah, ah, ah, ah —]

The Illusion System screamed in collapse: [I hate the two of you!]

Driving the Illusion System away in anger.

Mo Jiao continued on his own thoughts.

Xiao Jinsheng looked at him curiously: "How do you want to act?"

"Logically speaking, I should resent you for using me as a stand-in after just resurrecting," Mo Jiao explained while placing his palm on Xiao Jinsheng’s lower back for support.

As he faced Xiao Jinsheng’s drunken gaze that saw him as someone else.

Mo Jiao took the opportunity to hold down Xiao Jinsheng’s head, pushing her towards him for a kiss.

Kissing lightly along the corner of Xiao Jinsheng’s lips, he smiled and said, "Sometimes, hate lasts longer than love."

"I think I should reciprocate your drunkenness this time," Mo Jiao answered: "It fits my mindset of wanting revenge just after reincarnating."

"But you’re a love-minded person," Xiao Jinsheng chuckled: "While revenging, you ended up still with me in the end."

Mo Jiao remained silent.

The Illusion System lurking in the corner was equally silent.

It looked at its own script, filled with confusion: [Isn’t this right? In the end, no matter what they go through, the two protagonists end up together, it’s perfectly fine]

Before the Illusion System could figure it out, it found itself blocked by Xiao Jinsheng again.

The next day, Mo Jiao woke up in Xiao Jinsheng’s room.

However, Xiao Jinsheng was not there, instead the cotton doll belonging to Xiao Jinsheng was placed by the bed.

Mo Jiao reached out to take the doll and studied it.

Pinching the ears, and tugging at the hair.

Holding hands, and then gripping the feet.

Meanwhile, in the living room dealing with the Cannibal Flower, Xiao Jinsheng frowned in confusion.

She raised her hand to pinch her own ear, thinking the ear being touched was an illusion, yet she felt her hair being tugged a bit.

Just as she started suspecting she might be in another illusion within the Illusion, she felt something scratching her palm, and her ankle felt grabbed by a hand.

Xiao Jinsheng opened her eyes wide in fright.
