Chapter 3 — Don't be afraid, I'm here

After that, I was taken to an orphanage. Every night I have nightmares. The doctor at the child care clinic tried everything, and finally stopped me from having "fear of blood". Not develop into a child with both mental and physical problems. I'm not sure if it was because I came to this world, or because the pressure was too great... But this time, a long time ago, I dreamed about that accident again. I screamed loudly for my deceased parents, crying like rain... I didn't wake up until morning. I am lying on a large bed, soft as a cloud. All around is elegant dark blue. The system immediately announced: 【Current favorability of Co Son Hanh: -10%.】 Huh? What happened? 【Not sure… but while she was in a coma, she kept screaming and crying, calling “mommy” all night long.】 “….” My head was pounding, sleepily I sat up, pushed the door open and walked out. But just as he turned the corner, he suddenly stopped. Outside... have all the blood been wiped away yet? Co Son Hanh is not the type of person who cares about my life or death. It would be safer to go back. But… where is my phone? While he was wondering, a voice rang out behind him: "Are you awake?" I turned my head and saw that Co Son Hanh had changed into comfortable home clothes and was still holding a bowl of hot millet porridge. I clung to the wall and hesitantly asked: "Is there... still... blood outside?" “Are you afraid of blood?” Co Son Hanh tilted his head and looked at me, his voice as light as the wind: "Van Vu, when did you become so cowardly?" I shrunk my neck and didn't dare to speak, clearly still not completely free from the fear of blood loss and fainting yesterday. Co Son Hanh put the bowl of porridge on the head of the bed: "It's cleaned. Go back and eat porridge." "…Yes." I dragged myself step by step, slowly returning to the bed and sitting down. I sullenly hugged the bowl of porridge, taking spoonfuls of it, without any spirit left. 【Co Son Hanh's favorability +5】 What? Does he like watching people eat? Knowing that, I ate a few more meals! I bowed my head and ate even more enthusiastically. 【Co Son Hanh's favorability +5】 【Congratulations to the host, all negative points have been removed. Current favorability: 0%。Continue to improve~】 I ate three more bowls in a row, but the favorability still did not increase. You son of a bitch, is there even a limit to the increase in points? A few days later, I officially "reappeared as a wanderer." Rushed into the kitchen again, determined to cook corn rib soup this time. Of course, I did not hesitate to assign tasks to Co Son Hanh: "Go buy things for me." “What do you want to buy?” (Insert strange advertisement of unknown origin...) "Pre-cut corn. I swear I will never chop myself again." "...Okay. Anything else?" “Buy some more snacks.” "Okay." 【Detected Co Son Hanh's favorability +2，currently: 12%。】 Right after that, he sent another message: "No work tonight, go home to eat." The system and I looked at each other, two words flashed in each other's eyes: "CONSPIRACY." 【Host, the time has come.】 I rolled up my sleeves and pulled out a bottle of wine with a "mildly arousing" effect: "This is the moment!" But before he could discuss the next plan with the system, male lead Luong Chi suddenly called. As soon as he picked up the phone, the other party scolded him: "Van Vu! What did you give A Chi to drink?!" “What is what?” "Don't pretend to be naive! I know you once poisoned A Chi, now she's in a coma! If I don't find an antidote in half an hour, I'll give the evidence to the police! You take care of it yourself." Go!" System panic: 【Host, if the police receive evidence, the script will jump! If Co Son Hanh's favorability is not enough, he will kill you on the spot!】 "I also want to know what Van Vu has killed!" I flipped through the cabinets and screamed, looking for an antidote. Ten minutes later, I pulled out more than a hundred varieties. What the hell, is Van Vu a descendant of Mieu Cuong?! System: 【Due to the number of poisonings, it is impossible to determine what type of poison this time is.】 “…Mom.” There's only one last way left. I grabbed the bag, scooped up all the antidote, and rushed out the door. Can't be cured? Try one pill at a time! I rushed into the hospital and before I could say a word, I received a slap in the ear from Luong Chi. My eyes were dark, stars filled my head. “Fuck you——” 【Host! Saving important lives! If the female lead dies, your life will be over!】 I was so angry that I pointed my finger at Luong Chi: "Leave it there, deal with me later!" Luong Chi's people forced me to sit next to the heroine's bed and began testing each type of antidote, spending the entire afternoon. Luong Chi's face became more and more unsightly. If it weren't for the fact that I was still holding a pack of cigarettes in my hand, he would have killed me a long time ago. When Co Son Hanh's phone call came, tears immediately welled up in my eyes. Luong Chi coldly answered the phone for me. “Van Vu, I'm home, where are you?” “She's at my place.” The other end of the line was silent. Immediately after that, the system urgently announced: 【Detected that Co Son Hanh's favorability dropped sharply: -10 points. Currently 2%.】 【Continued -9 points. 1% left.】 【Continue -8 points...】 【The host is done, he must have thought you were back with Luong Chi!】 I was no longer in the mood to listen to the system read the points anymore. The antidote is almost gone. And the heroine is still not awake. Luong Chi suddenly grabbed my neck and shouted: "Van Vu, do you want to die?! If A Chi doesn't wake up, you'll bury her with her!” This was the first time I truly felt death approaching. My breathing slowed down, my body trembled uncontrollably, I clearly felt the instinctive fear of survival. At that moment, a weak cough rang out. The hand that was strangling me suddenly let go. I slid down the wall and fell to the floor, my legs were so weak I couldn't stand. On the hospital bed, the heroine slowly opened her eyes. Luong Chi held her hand tightly: "A Chi, you scared me to death..." The female lead's eyes were red, tears welling up, making the viewer feel sad. Luong Chi suddenly thought of something, suddenly glanced coldly at me, someone immediately pushed me to the ground. “A Chi, don't——” “Don't be afraid, I will avenge you——” “Luong Chi,” the female lead suddenly grabbed his sleeve, chokingly said: “It's not her… It's… it's me myself…” “You don't have to defend her——” “Really, I did it myself.” The female lead's eyes were red, sobbing: "You're angry with me, I thought you didn't love me anymore... I just wanted to test your heart, this has nothing to do with Van Vu..." Luong Chi's eyes were shocked. He immediately hugged her: “Idiot… do you still doubt my feelings? "Do you need me to take out your heart and show it to you..." I held onto the wall and stood up unsteadily. I bent down to pick up the phone that had fallen to the ground, and walked unsteadily out of the hospital. 【Host, are you okay? Are you in pain?】 I lowered my head to look at the phone - the screen was cracked, dust was all over the inside, and my hand was no longer sensitive to touch. Luckily, The contact list only had one person, so I easily called back. The phone was quickly connected, Co Son Hanh's voice rang out as cold as ice: "Why are you still calling me? Were you rejected by Luong Chi again?" Hearing his voice, I suddenly burst into tears. Co Son Hanh paused for a moment, then heard me sobbing and crying as I spoke: "Hu hu hu... Co Son Hanh, I'm in so much pain... That male and female dog couple bullied me..." "Wei Van Chi drank the poison himself, Luong Chi misunderstood that I had skipped the medicine, and was about to call the police to arrest me... I was so scared that I ran away... He strangled me, even threw me to the ground... my knees were torn..." For a moment, there was dead silence. After that, the system whispered softly in the ear: 【Detected that Co Son Hanh's favorability is increasing...】 Before he could finish speaking, Co Son Hanh's voice drowned out the system's voice: "Find a safe place to wait, I'll be there soon."
