I Bind with NP System After Being Abandoned by the 1V1 System - Chapter 33
In just a few minutes, she had managed to hit every one of Shen Yi’s sore spots.
“Leave. Don’t make me say it again.”
His calmness was terrifying to Jiang Zhi.
“No, I won’t leave unless you forgive me. You’re my master, you have to take responsibility for me.” She struggled, though lacking any real confidence.
Shen Yi let out a cold laugh, unable to resist a sarcastic remark: “Do you really need me to be responsible for you?”
With that, he pushed her toward the door without a second thought and shut it firmly behind her.
For the first time, Jiang Zhi felt completely at a loss, a deep sense of guilt gnawing at her, especially when it came to Shen Yi. It seemed she had truly let him down.
As if to rub salt in the wound, the system chimed in: “Friendly reminder, Miss Jiang Zhi. Your relationship with Shen Yi has downgraded to ‘Needs to Be Conquered’ status. To re-establish the relationship, you need to reach 100% affection and engage in intimate activity.”
Her complicated emotions left her no time to deal with the system’s reminders. Gathering her courage, she knocked on the door again.
“Master, are you okay? I’m sorry… Master, please don’t be mad at me. If you don’t like it, I’ll leave. But please don’t suppress yourself anymore. Find a new, obedient submissive who will be much better than me.”
This wasn’t just a play for sympathy; after seeing Shen Yi’s reaction, she suddenly realized a lot of things.
She had never asked any of them if they were okay with sharing her with other men. She was cheating and not taking responsibility for her actions, instead continuing to deceive more people.
If Xi Yu found out she was spending every day making excuses not to come home just to sleep with other men, he’d probably react the same way.
On the other side of the door, leaning against it, Shen Yi heard every word of her final plea.
The sadness, the struggle, the obsession—he clenched his fists, not knowing where to direct his anger.
That one time in the torture room with her that day had been the most satisfying experience of his life.
The climax, the release, the indulgence—he had allowed himself to do whatever he wanted with her. But his sense of morality and possessiveness wouldn’t let him tolerate her being with multiple men at the same time.
But why was she now, in her apology, making him feel so tortured?
After leaving Shen Yi’s place, Jiang Zhi didn’t go home immediately. She found a bench by the roadside and sat down, deep in thought.
The system, assuming she was worried, tried to comfort her: “Miss Jiang Zhi, don’t worry. I’ll notify you immediately if there’s a new high-quality target nearby. There’s still plenty of time left in the month.”
“No need,” she said firmly. “I’ve made up my mind. I can’t keep making mistakes.”
System: “Huh? What mistakes?”
“Cheating, lying, overindulgence—which one of those is not wrong?”
Her question nearly made the system malfunction. It stuttered for a moment before responding, “Isn’t that… how it should be?”
It was, after all, an NP system.
“Ahem, Miss Jiang Zhi, there’s no need to be upset over a temporary failure. Just use the same determination you showed with Meng Yun. Staying alive should be an easy task for you.”
Not understanding her remorse, the system could only offer advice from its own perspective.
“Does Meng Yun’s brain even compare to Shen Yi, Xi Yu, or Cheng Huai? Tell me, what would Xi Yu’s reaction be if he found out I was involved with four men at once? He’s a 1V1 male protagonist.”
The more she thought about it, the more she realized how wrong she had been. Jiang Zhi suddenly felt like she had experienced a moment of enlightenment.
“Forget it. I don’t want to lie anymore. What’s the point of living if it’s like this? Dying would at least bring some peace. Anyway, making them forget me won’t be hard.”
There was a memory-erasing potion in the exchange shop. If they drank it, they would completely forget she ever existed. Originally meant for ordinary people who discovered the system, she now found a new use for it.
Feeling enlightened, her mindset relaxed considerably. However, just as she was about to get up and go home to confess and apologize to Xi Yu, Shen Yi suddenly grabbed her from behind.
