Even to this day, Mei Shu still remembers how terrifying the forest was that night, and she still recalls how warm the water felt on that day.

Chu Rui, with the unique vigor of youth, naturally became the brightest light in her dark period.

As she reached this part, Mei Shu’s eyes were filled with nostalgia and fondness.

Chu Rui brought her much more than just solace to her soul.

Without him, she might have been trapped in the mountains under the torment of Old Wang, never to reunite with her family again.

So even though Chu Rui did something unforgivable to Xiao He later on, Mei Shu could never truly blame him.

Perhaps the best ending for them was never to meet again, but when Chu Rui needed help, she was still willing to lend a helping hand.

The next screen showed what happened to Mei Shu after Zhao Yan took her back to the Mei family.

She couldn’t bear to see what her past self had gone through. Walking quickly to the last screen, she found only a blank space.

“You’ve finally arrived here, Master.”

The system’s voice echoed from above. At the same time, the surrounding computers shut down instantly, leaving only the screen in front of her still glowing, displaying synchronized text.

Mei Shu instinctively looked up, but there was only endless darkness overhead.

“Congratulations, Master, for completing all the tasks of the rebirth system.”

Mei Shu’s gaze returned to the screen. She tentatively asked, “Does completing all the tasks mean I can have a happy ending?”

“Yes, Master.”

The system’s mechanical voice sounded again.

[Master can choose to completely remove the binding with the system here.]

“I haven’t seen the endings of my brothers yet.” Mei Shu anxiously said, “Can you tell me if they will live their lives safely?”

“Master, human abilities have their limitations. They can only try to change the future within their capabilities, but ultimately, they are still walking on the path of destiny. For a normal human, there is no way to accurately predict the future. So, even if you have the system, trying to pry into others’ endings still requires a certain price.”

“Are you saying that if I want to know the endings of my brothers, 1 have to verify them myself, which also means I can’t unbind from you temporarily?” Mei Shu’s gaze became firm. “Then what are the conditions?”

“Master, the rebirth system has completed its mission. If you want to continue operating, you need to release new mainline tasks. Do you have any wishes that you must fulfill?”

Mei Shu calmed down, staring at the flashing text on the screen for a while until her vision became somewhat blurry. “Instead of asking me, why don’t you ask yourself if you have any reason to continue existing? There’s something I’ve never understood.”

“Master, please go ahead.”

“According to the initial prompt of the system, I should have died in that murder, but I survived smoothly, and Feng Wei became the one unable to change the outcome of death. 1 don’t understand what I did to change my fate, and why I couldn’t save Feng Wei as planned.”

“Master, she once harmed you. According to the script, she was the antagonist in your life.”

“Yes.” Mei Shu said with a desolate tone, “She did harm me, but I don’t want her death to be because of me. I don’t want to owe her.”

This time the system remained silent for a while before continuing with its mechanical voice.

“Master, your kindness is the true reason for pushing her towards death. And she is the key to changing your outcome of death. In other words, if she hadn’t been influenced and saved you, you would have died in the gunfight, and the rebirth system mission would have failed. You would never have another chance to come back.”

In other words, she and Feng Wei had already been destined from the beginning, and only one of them could survive.

From the moment they stepped onto the island, perhaps even earlier, Feng Wei had been influenced by her, unknowingly changing the future.

But sacrificing one life to prolong her own, was that really right?

“So, Master, a normal human being can never change their predetermined fate. If they insist on rewriting it, they will pay an equivalent price. Even so, do you still want to continue binding with the system to see the futures of others?”

Mei Shu was lost in thought for a long time. In this isolated space, she couldn’t hear a sound, and only the screen in front of her was silently urging her, waiting for her response.

“If…” Mei Shu finally spoke, realizing that her voice was hoarse, she swallowed saliva, and then said again, “If what I see is the death ending of my brothers, can I exchange it with my own life?”

The system seemed to have anticipated that she would ask this. The screen flickered a few times and slowly displayed a line of text.

“Your destiny has been rewritten.. Are you really sure you want to do this?”
