The truth about simulators

[You planned to talk to Mu Yue after your schedule ended—about your relationship, about everything.
Some things needed closure.
Mu Yue had done so much for you.
At the very least, she deserved a proper place in your life.]

“I thought the me in this simulator was going to ‘reform completely.’
Turns out I’m just making her my official wife?
So you’re not heartless… you just have a little conscience…”

“In real life, if Mu Yue agreed to be my girlfriend,
I’d be one hundred percent faithful! No cheating at all!”

Lin Yuxuan declared with full conviction.

The version of herself in this simulator was simply terrible!

How could she be so promiscuous?!

I’d never do that in real life!

[System: The simulator’s data is entirely based on real existing individuals.]

“You’ve got faulty data! This isn’t accurate!”

“Wait… I think I’m remembering something?”

Lin Yuxuan felt a fleeting memory brush past her mind.

For a transmigrator, memories were like a pile of unsorted files.
If you didn’t actively search for them, you’d never know they existed—
unlike normal people.

Ordinary people might forget things,
but those forgotten memories were still theirs.
Even if recalled later, it wouldn’t feel jarring.

But a transmigrator could only access the original owner’s memories by consciously retrieving them.

“About the original owner’s parents…
The events in the simulator—were they actually real?!”
Lin Yuxuan was stunned.
If her own mind couldn’t lie to her,
she’d have thought the simulator was just making up nonsense.

So the original body’s ‘Lin Yuxuan’ really did become an orphan by her own actions in real life?!

The details were off, but the people were real—
even the dance teacher mentioned in the simulation actually existed.

“So the simulator’s story isn’t just pulling things out of thin air—
it’s based on real events?!”

“No wonder the ‘me’ in the simulation is always so messed up—
it’s modeled after the original owner of this body!”

“Stupid system! Get out here and explain yourself!
If you don’t fix this, I’m done with this simulator!”

[System: We sincerely apologize, Host.
During the data scan, incorrect information was recorded.
However, please rest assured—these errors are like incorrect ID numbers in the simulation.
They’re just data.
The events in the simulator are still under your control.
The issue lies only in the suggested paths, which may not align with your preferences.]

“That’s not the point! The point is how you’re going to fix this!
No wonder the simulator felt so off—
you based the entire scenario on the original owner of this body?!
I don’t want someone else’s custom simulation!
Fix it now!”

[System: Yes, Host. Preparing to overwrite data…]

[Please choose carefully.
If you overwrite the simulator’s records with your current mental data,
you may alter the underlying logic.
All rewards you’ve earned so far will be revoked.]

“What?! That serious?!”

[These rewards are built upon the previous underlying logic.
We recommend a “soft overwrite.”
Each time you run a simulation, we’ll read your commands
and gradually replace old data with your current thought patterns.
This won’t damage the core logic, and your rewards will remain intact.]

“Alright, fine. Let’s do it that way.
Guess this is going to be a long-term project.”

[System: Thank you for your understanding.
As an apology, upon completion of this simulation,
we will provide you with an additional “World-Class Item” free of charge.]

“Now that’s more like it. Fine, let’s go with that…”

This was the first time the system had spoken to her so directly.

Clearly, the stupid system took this issue seriously—
and offered fair compensation.

Truthfully, she’d had this suspicion for a while.
She just hadn’t asked earlier.

But seriously—who would’ve thought the system would bind to the original soul of the body,
instead of the new owner like herself?

“By the way, stupid system—since I took over this body,
where did the original owner go?”

[This system does not know.]

“Huh?? But didn’t I only awaken the system after I took over?”

[No. Your situation is unrelated to me.
My sole duty is to serve the owner of this body.
And currently, you are my only master.]

“Oh. Okay then.”

Since she was here now, maybe the original “innocent little Lin Yuxuan”
had been sent back to her old world to be a corporate s*ave?

Hopefully, the one who inherited her body wouldn’t mind
that it was still a virgin male—just like she hadn’t minded that the body was still a virgin girl.

“Anyway, I was an orphan in my past life too.
She can do whatever.
She’s not the type to hurt anyone.
I didn’t have any wealth—just a mountain of loans:
credit cards, Huabei, Jiebei, mortgage, car loan…
I hope she remembers to pay them on time…”

“And I’ll just stay here and be a sweet, gentle, beautiful girl~”

Lin Yuxuan thought happily to herself.

“Continue the simulation.”

She just wanted to finish this run as quickly as possible—
because now she was really curious about what “World-Class Item” the stupid system had in store for her.

Sounded amazing. So exciting~

(P.S.: This plot point was planned from the beginning and was always meant to be in the main story.
The purpose of this section is mainly to clarify things—
to explain why the Lin Yuxuan in the simulator is so messed up,
and to clearly separate her from our current heroine.
Our heroine has never been that kind of villain.
You can rest easy from now on~)

[Simulation continues]

[You decided to return home after the show’s filming ended,
to apologize to Mu Yue properly.
At the very least, you needed her forgiveness.
You didn’t want to go any further down the wrong path.]

[But fate had other plans.
The private car carrying you and Rebecca crashed severely.]

[You spent a month in the hospital.
Rebecca was worse off—wrapped head to toe like a pink-haired mummy,
her legs suspended in bandages.]

[Upon hearing the news, Mu Yue rushed to the hospital,
caring for you for over a month.
The other patients in nearby beds were green with envy—
such a gentle, beautiful girl was every man’s dream.]

[For the first time, you realized—your Mu Yue had always been an angel by your side.
You just kept forgetting.]

[You confessed to her, promising never to be with any other girl again.]

[Mu Yue cried.
In her eyes, you had always been a rebellious child.
But now—finally—you had grown up.]

“Finally… a happy ending. Took long enough.”

[Meanwhile, Rebecca—her entire body wrapped in bandages—
wept bitterly upon hearing you’d confessed to another girl.
She’d never taste you again.
The thought tore her heart apart.
After all, during every music party, she was the one who spent the longest time tangled with you.]

“Ha ha ha, this pink-haired girl’s actually kind of fun.
Wonder who she is in real life…”
