(Male lead's point of view)
Fate is unpredictable.
Similarly it is said that love is never long-lasting.
But my love for you is eternal,
Believe me or not, it definitely is.
I know that my sin is unforgivable,
I know that your heart is already broken into a thousand pieces.
You pure tears of are already shed,
Your desperate please are still heard from afar,
And your crimson blood still covers my hands.
Swayed by the words of others, I destroyed your whole life and heart,
But I now know the truth is not what it really seemed to be,
It was all a lie,
It was a lie that caused your death,
No-no....it was because of me, it was caused by my foolishness.
But forgive my selfishness, I unwilling to let go of you
Even after death.....
And if only after death I can find you, then I am willing to die and search for you
A boy in white robes stood in peak of the mountain, his whole body stained with crimson blood, his eye were full of sorrow and loneliness. He held a silver dagger in his hands, it was the same dagger she gifted to him and....the same dagger he killed her with. He closed his eyes and with the sword, he stabbed his heart.
He wanted to repay her but he knew that he never can't.
Because the agony he caused her was unbearable
The pain of being killed by one's own loved one is more heart-wrenching
And his pain right now can't compare to a bit of her pain
He remembers that she once asked to smile for her but he never did
Today, he did exactly as she asked
...He gave his best smile....
Somewhere in that world, sitting by the river of forgetfulness, a drop of tear slipped down her cheek when she saw this.
I want to hate you but I can't.
I want to simple kill you...end you existence but I can't bear to.
I want end this hateful world, which has been so unfair to me but how can I?
How can I?
How can I since this world stores those beautiful memories of when we spent our time together?
If I we meet again, let us start from the beginning once more.
Let us love each other once more.
Let's face our fate together once more.
And...let's face the world together on our own.
Because, without you my life is nothing.

-She is FL, Yu Meng, while he is ML, Xuan Ye
(Author's Note:
This story is from the main world, where both FL and ML are from, this is not the world where FL was originally from before becoming a task-taker, but the world where everything including both FL and ML's story started from, however this is only the part of the whole story from the main world. This part of the story is related to the first bit in the beginning of chapter 16, you guys can check it out if you want to.)

When they finished eating, Yu Meng lazily leaned on the chair and said, "You seem to be an owner of a clothing shop and your talent in fashion designing is no less than of mine, so I am wiling to sponsor your brand."
Ning Qi seriously considered the plan and nodded.
She thought of the idea and improved Yu Meng's it in her own way, "Rather than a company, you can open a studio. What I mean is that, with your lazy attitude I am pretty sure you wouldn't bother taking care of the company." Denying the idea, Yu Meng exaggeratedly shook her head and acted dramatically, " It won't work, it won't work. This time, the Original FL opened a company and the ML also has business empire. If I open a studio, competing against her will take a lot of time, while if I openly go against her company with my own company, they will simply count it as business rivals, this way others won't think much about this.
And I already have my head designer with me."
"If you have already decided to this, then I won't say anything else," Ning Qi only sigh in defeat. Snorting softly, Yu Meng got up from chair as she spotted Huo Weisan in clean clothes that she gave him before and everything about him looked perfectly fine, he was no longer the same person who looked like a beggar.
Giving a Ning Qi a quick look, Yu Meng smiled, "Come with me, I will introduce you to my head designer." "Okay, I wonder what kind of genius the future-head-designer of your company is," Ning Qi curled the corner of her lips in amusement, as she and Yu Meng start to go towards Huo Weisan's direction.
When both of them reached where Huo Weisan was standing, Huo Weisan smiled, while a confused expression appeared on his face as his gaze stopped on Ning Qi. "This is my friend, Ning Qi. Ning Qi, this is also my friend." Yu Meng smirked and patted Ning Qi on the back as she introduced them to each other.
She didn't bother introducing Huo Weisan as her future-employee, because Ning Qi already knows about this.
Realizing that it was his boss's friend, Huo Weisan politely greeted Ning Qi, "Nice to meet you, Miss Ning." "It's also my pleasure to meet you, Mr Huo," Ning Qi graciously replied to his greetings. And then…..
Nothing.
There was just awkward silence, well at least for Ning Qi and Huo Weisan as Yu Meng was conversing with her system. Yu Meng expected them to get along with each other, but she didn't know that they expected her start the conversation.
Yu Meng: Rather than sponsor shall I invest in Ning Qi's brand?
Xue Yun: Uhh…that, I suggest you to invest first because if you sponsor it, you won't have any advantage, so you will be just wasting your energy.
Yu Meng: True enough.
Xue Yun: Host, what are you going to do about Huo Weisan? I mean where is he going to live, and I don't think so he can afford to rent a house in his current state. So, are you going to ask for Ning Qi's help, it will be a lot easier for you.
Yu Meng: I will help him rent a house and when he gets his salary, I will deduct the amount of money I gave him. As for requiring Ning Qi's help to rent a house….Xue Yun, I am not that lazy, okay?
Furthermore, I should complete the tasks to get more experience and maybe because of the things I normally do, I might get to do some hidden and side missions and if I am too lucky like my information says, I might even get another main mission.
Xue Yun: Okay host but you should first…..
Yu Meng: I should what first?
Xue Yun: You should first go outside first and resolve the awkward situation between Ning Qi and Huo Weisan first. There is too much silence between them so quickly go.
Xue Yun couldn't bear to watch it anymore, she couldn't help but doubt her host's IQ again but soon discerned the problem here. 'Looks like my host's need to buy something from the system mall but another problem is that, will my host be generous enough to buy it?'
Yu Meng: Oopsy daisy, I though they could at least start a small conversation with each other
"Ahh, I forgot to tell you…that Ning Qi is also fashion designer and opened her own brand. Her designs are also very good, better than yours what I should say, so if you have spare time in the future, try to learn something from her," Waving her hand dramatically and then naughtily smiled at Huo Weisan when she mentioned that Ning Qi's skills were much better than him.
