As Zhang Wei approached the entrance, he couldn't help but notice a small garden filled with colorful flowers and a small swinging chair in the corner. It was the perfect spot for anyone seeking solace and tranquility.
As he drew closer, he saw a girl sitting in the chair, her back facing him. Her long white hair hung down to her waist, glowing in the evening light. He felt a strange aura emanating from her, something he had never experienced before. For a few moments, he stood there, observing her from a distance.
Finally, he decided to approach her.
To his surprise, the system spoke up with concern, [Host, don't approach her.]
"Why?" asked Zhang Wei.
Without mincing her words, the system lady replied, [She is trouble.]
Zhang Wei couldn't help but think, 'Women, in itself, are trouble. What's wrong with her being trouble?'
However, he knew that the system meant something else entirely. 'But she looks quite innocent to me,' added Zhang Wei.
The system warned him, [Host, you don't understand. That girl will only bring misfortune to you. Can't you see she is sitting alone there while other children are ignoring her presence as if she didn't exist?]
Zhang Wei nodded, realizing that the system was right. He had noticed that the other children seemed to ignore her, but it wasn't enough to stop him from approaching her.
The system grew irritated, 'Why is host so troublesome?'
Immediately it issued a mission.
==========
Mission alert!
Burn this orphanage down and step on the path of being a true villain.
The host will be granted temporary ability to complete this mission.
Reward: Body Cleansing Pill X1
===========
Upon receiving the sudden notification, Zhang Wei furrowed his brows in annoyance. He knew that the mission was issued forcefully by the system, and he couldn't shake off his curiosity about the girl in the garden.
'System, if you want me to stop, provide me with a proper explanation and stop issuing these strange missions,' he demanded, frustration evident in his voice. 'Why would I need a mission to burn down an orphanage? If you really want me to cause destruction, tell me to burn down a mall or something with thousands of people.'
Ignoring Zhang Wei's suggestion, the system reiterated its warning. [Host that girl is the one you must avoid at all costs. She might endanger your life.]
Zhang Wei fell silent for a moment, trying to make sense of the system's dramatic warning. Was his life really at risk because of a little girl? He didn't understand why the system was being so overbearing.
Even if the girl will bring trouble on him, what's the worst that will happen... Death?
Do he care about dying... It isn't the worst thing that can happen to him.
Ignoring the system's repeated warnings, Zhang Wei continued to approach the girl. The system continued to shout in his mind, but he paid no attention to it. Eventually, the system gave up trying to persuade him.
No amount of threats would work against Zhang Wei. He was determined to do what he wanted, even if it meant putting his own life in danger.
As he approached the girl, the ethereal aura around her intensified, filling Zhang Wei with a sense of calm. He was in awe of her beauty as he got a closer look at her. Her long white hair cascaded down her back, framing her delicate features.
When she turned to face him, he was struck by the clarity of her sky-blue eyes and the soft pink of her lips. She looked like an angel, and he couldn't help but stare in admiration.
However, his admiration was short-lived as he noticed the fear in her eyes. It was as if she had been through a lot, and Zhang Wei couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness in his chest.
He couldn't understand why he felt that way. Perhaps it was because of her otherworldly appearance? They say that people often feel sad when they see others in pain – that's empathy.
It was a sad reality, but one that Zhang Wei rarely experienced. In this girl's case, he was stunned by her appearance and the emotions it brought out in him. Was it just her appearance, or was there something more?
Ignoring the ripples in his heart, he decided to focus on his steps and move forward.
From her defensive posture, it was clear that she was the type of girl who didn't speak much and easily got scared.
He approached her cautiously, trying not to startle her, and offered her a small smile. "Hello," he said softly. "What's your name?"
He decided to put his innocent-looking face to his advantage, and it worked for a second.
As the girl blinked her eyes and glanced at him, she then looked down and shrank her body again, maintaining her distance from him.
[See! She doesn't like you, host! Now leave her alone! Regardless, she only looks twelve to fourteen years old. Don't tell me you are interested in kids, host!]
Zhang Wei's brows twitched in annoyance. 'Fuck this!'
He directly caught her small hands and forced a smile. "Little nizi, what is your name?"
The little girl tried to take her hands away, but his grip was much stronger.
Facing Zhang Wei's aggressiveness, her face grew pale with fear.
Suddenly, an abrupt noise entered Zhang Wei's ears, causing him to turn his head.
"Hey, what are you doing!?" shouted an elderly woman from afar. From a distance, she had initially thought that Zhang Wei was a kind person, but now she was frustrated at his actions. Can't he see that the girl is fearful of him?
Zhang Wei cursed in his mind again, thinking that he should really burn down this orphanage. He left the little girl alone for a while and forced a smile while facing the elderly woman.
"How may I help you?" asked Zhang Wei with politeness. His reply caught the woman off-guard, leaving her wondering if she had identified the wrong person.
Meanwhile, the little girl lifted her face to secretly look at him. The elderly woman confirmed that it was the same man and became annoyed by his shamelessness.
"I am Guo Jiao, in charge of this orphanage. If this gentleman doesn't have any business here, please kindly leave," she said sternly.
She had originally thought about calling the police for the man bothering the child, but when she saw his branded clothes, she became a bit reluctant.
If she could get him to leave quietly, that would be so much better.
It could be said that the lady knew her work.
Zhang Wei sighed because people couldn't just leave him alone.
He was just curious and wanted to know the little girl's name. She was beautiful, far more beautiful than any woman he had ever seen, but combined with the system's warning and her age, he considered leaving after a casual acquaintance.
But this lady annoyed him.
When he saw little Nizi staring at him, he smiled; the former felt something uncomfortable and immediately avoided his gaze.
This little Nizi dug her own grave.
If she had politely told him her name, he would have left normally.
But now… hehe...
Smiling at the middle-aged lady, Zhang Wei spoke confidently, "I do have work here, Miss Guo. I want to take this little girl home with me. Is there a problem with that?"
The woman's eyes went wide with shock at his audacity. Even the system was taken aback by his boldness.
Guo Jian's face turned red with anger as she responded fiercely, "Are you insane? We don't hand over children to hungry wolves like you! Get away from here! This is not the type of orphanage you're looking for."
Once again, Zhang Wei was misunderstood. This woman was making assumptions without even confirming anything.
As if that weren't enough, Zhang Wei spotted a woman with purple hair coming from afar and raised an eyebrow in surprise. He couldn't help but glance back at the little girl, remembering the system's words about her being a sign of misfortune.
The woman approaching was Leng Yan, and Zhang Wei couldn't help but think she was stalking him. He sighed deeply, knowing that trouble was coming.
If that police officer knew about his actions here, she would definitely use this opportunity to handcuff him.
