The Otherworldly Journey of a Quick Transmigrator

When Hua Manlou asked her out at the door, Su Yuanyuan was speechless and didn't know how to refuse, but she couldn't deny that she was secretly pleased.

After all, someone as perfect as Hua Manlou likes her; who wouldn't be happy about that?

[Host, you can agree to his request; the company doesn't prevent employees from dating.]

[Shut up, I'm leaving. What will happen to him then?]

[Host, have you forgotten that after you leave, all traces of your existence will disappear, and he will forget you too.]

The system's words left Su Yuanyuan speechless, a breath stuck in her throat. Of course she hadn't forgotten, but she knew he would forget, which was why she was unwilling to accept it.

Even if she leaves, just thinking about the person who was so loving and affectionate with her a moment ago, she will forget herself and fall in love with someone else.

But she still retains the memories of the two of them, and every time she thinks about them, she feels terrible, so she has absolutely no desire to be in a relationship.

She admitted that she was despicable, preferring to make the other person sad rather than herself.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Hua, I'm not feeling well and don't want to go out."

Distracted by the system, Su Yuanyuan came to her senses. Since Hua Manlou hadn't explicitly said he liked her, she could only politely decline.

Upon hearing her words, Hua Manlou's smile vanished, and he asked with a worried expression.

"Miss Su, what's wrong? Should we call a doctor?"

"No need, I am a doctor myself, it's nothing serious, I just need to rest."

Su Yuanyuan kept her eyes fixed on the ground. It was the first time such an outstanding person had liked her, and she really couldn't bear to refuse.

She knew Hua Manlou was a smart man; if she refused him twice, he would surely know.

Sure enough, he remained silent for a while. Su Yuanyuan seemed to hear him sigh, and then he spoke in a gentle tone.

"I apologize for disturbing you, Miss Su. You should go and rest now. I'll head back first."

After saying that, he turned and went back to his room. Su Yuanyuan secretly watched his back and really wanted to slap herself twice. Serves you right for being so pretentious and letting go of such a good man.

[System, let's leave tomorrow.]

【Oh? But the data hasn't been collected yet.】

Su Yuanyuan rolled her eyes, closed the door, and sat back on the bed.

I meant, let's leave the Hundred Flowers Pavilion and wander around other places.

[...Host, you're such a coward.]

【…】

Su Yuanyuan was speechless. She snorted and stopped talking to the system. How annoying! Doesn't the system know that you shouldn't expose someone's shortcomings?

She didn't have much to pack; most of it consisted of the little trinkets Hua Manlou had given her.

Su Yuanyuan hesitated for a moment, but still put them into her space. She really liked them.

The next morning, as soon as the city gates opened, Su Yuanyuan was the first to leave the city. She walked westward without stopping until noon, without even seeing a trace of a town.

After finding a tea stall to sit down and rest, Su Yuanyuan complained to the system in her mind about how terrible the transportation was in ancient times and how difficult the roads were to travel.

You can buy a horse and ride it.

Of course I know riding a horse is easy, but I can't ride, and I came out in a hurry, so I didn't have time to buy one.

"...I didn't ask you to run; even riding slowly is faster than walking."

Su Yuanyuan thought it made sense; she would buy one when they got to the city.

Just as she was resting, a carriage passed by the tea stall, and Su Yuanyuan kept watching it until it disappeared into the distance.

[System, what do you think about me buying a horse-drawn carriage?]

[Host, you're just an ordinary citizen right now, you're not qualified to buy a carriage. The horse isn't the issue, the carriage itself is not one you can ride in.]

Su Yuanyuan clicked her tongue lightly. Why were there so many rules in ancient times? Even buying a carriage was subject to restrictions.

After resting for a while, she started walking again on her own two legs.

Su Yuanyuan had no specific destination, so she just kept walking along the official road, staying in towns or villages for a few days whenever she reached one.

Just when her legs were about to give out, she finally bought a docile horse that wouldn't kick up at the drop of a hat.

[Host, where are we going?]

[Just wandering around! Wherever it leads, that's where it goes.]

Su Yuanyuan changed her posture. Riding a horse did not tire her legs, but riding for a long time made her thighs ache terribly. In the future, if there were any ancient worlds, she would definitely not travel far.

So where are you going now?

The system persisted in pressing her for answers. She had no idea where she was going, but she had heard people say that this road seemed to lead to Chang'an.

It should be Chang'an.

Su Yuanyuan rode her horse slowly and finally entered Chang'an before the city gates closed. She then randomly found an inn to stay at.

She asked the waiter to bring several buckets of hot water so she could wash herself quickly and apply medicine to her thighs, as they would hurt for a long time if she touched them while walking.

Su Yuanyuan didn't want to leave anymore; she planned to stay for a few days until her leg injury healed.

For the next two days, she stayed in her room and wouldn't even get out of bed unless absolutely necessary.

When she was finally able to go out, she overheard people talking about the showdown between Ximen Chuixue and Ye Gucheng. Su Yuanyuan overheard this while she was eating.

Rumors circulated that Ye Gucheng had been poisoned by the cinnabar of the eldest son of the Tang Clan, Ximen Chuixue had disappeared, and Lu Xiaofeng was still extremely busy.

Su Yuanyuan shook her head inwardly; being a chivalrous hero must be really tiring.

After staying a few more days, her leg injury was completely healed, and she decided to continue wandering around.

As a result, he ran into Hua Manlou when he went downstairs. He was talking to the shopkeeper, and when he heard the sound of people coming downstairs, he looked over.

He smiled broadly and said confidently, "Miss Su, what a coincidence, you're here too."

Su Yuanyuan was so embarrassed that she dug her toes into the ground, as if she had been caught doing something wrong. She had only been gone for a few days, so Hua Manlou must not have come with her, right?

"What brings you here, Young Master Hua?"

"I came to inspect my family's property, but I didn't expect to run into Miss Su."

Su Yuanyuan was speechless. Seeing that he didn't mention her leaving without saying goodbye, Su Yuanyuan wouldn't bring it up herself either.

"Then you go ahead with your work, I'll be going now."

As she was about to leave, Hua Manlou stepped aside, blocking her way, and spoke with a smile.

"I'm finished here too, Miss Su. Where are you going? I'll give you a ride."

Su Yuanyuan felt a sense of powerlessness. She really wanted to say, "Hurry up and confess your feelings, so I can reject you."

Unfortunately, Hua Manlou just wouldn't make it clear; he wanted to maintain an ambiguous relationship with Hua Manlou.

[System, has Hua Manlou crashed? He doesn't seem like a gentle person at all now.]

[…Host, shouldn't you look for the reason within yourself?]

[What nonsense are you talking about? What did I do?]

[Has a pure and innocent heart been trampled upon?]

"You may leave now."

She looked at Hua Manlou with some helplessness, not knowing how to refuse, so she simply decided to give up, since Hua Manlou wouldn't remember anything after she left.

He nodded immediately, "I have no goal, I'll just go wherever I end up."

"Then why don't I go with you, young lady? It's too dangerous for you to go alone."

Looking at Hua Manlou's handsome face so close to hers, Su Yuanyuan once again despised herself for being so pretentious.
