My Love Disaster Notes

"Isn't there an option to choose Xiao Mei?"

Lin Chuan looked at the three options above, which corresponded to a scumbag, a normal man, and a scheming man, respectively.

All the choices led to one goal—Jiang Yao.

But that's normal, since it's a dating simulation game simulating Jiang Yao's love life. If you could choose Xiao Mei, that would be too presumptuous.

Jiang Chuan hesitated for a moment, then ultimately chose option two, deciding to try out the ending for a normal man first.

Qingmei was very pleased with your attitude in clarifying your relationship with Xiao Mei. After learning about Xiao Mei's tragic childhood, she felt compassion for her.

In the days that followed, she tried to show her kindness and wanted to help Xiao Mei through her difficulties.

Xiao Mei refused. Her attitude towards Jiang Yao was extremely hostile, so hostile that you might even doubt whether she was the girl from your past life.

However, her attitude towards you remains the same; she still considers you a good friend.

[Your online articles are gaining traction on the website. Although the initial results were not ideal, thanks to the spontaneous promotion by enthusiastic netizens, they have begun to sweep the internet under the guise of being depressing.]

Your first month's royalties have arrived, and without telling Jiang Yao, you gave the money to Xiao Mei.

Xiao Mei still refused.

[On the quiet, deserted street, you walked side by side. The lamplight tinged the edges of her ponytail with orange-red, and the fine downy hairs from the tip of her nose to her chin were clearly visible in the light, a light layer that made her skin appear even more delicate and fair.]

You walked a long way in silence. Clutching her bank card, she suddenly asked, "If it weren't for Jiang Yao, would we have become good friends?"

[In response to her question, please answer... (enter freely)]

Lin Chuan considered for a moment, then typed on the virtual panel—

"We're good friends now," you replied, seemingly unrelated to the question.

Xiao Mei was very disappointed with your answer. In front of you, under the light, she forcefully broke the bank card in half.

"I don't need your pity or sympathy," Xiao Mei said, her tone suddenly hardening. You, with your keen observation, noticed her eyes were slightly red and her voice a little hoarse.

"Wait, whose dating simulation is this anyway?"

Lin Chuan was dumbfounded. How come Xiao Mei had more scenes than Jiang Yao?

Wasn't the torment in the previous life enough? Do you have to come and beat me up again in this life?

Right, Biyang's system.

The system did not respond and continued simulating the following plot without Lin Chuan pressing pause.

Your relationship with Xiao Mei has grown increasingly distant. Although you often find various reasons to help her in her life, and even her grandmother knows that Xiao Mei has such a kind-hearted friend, she still maintains a estranged relationship with you.

Your relationship with Jiang Yao has become increasingly intimate, and with your deliberate efforts, it has almost returned to the state it was in before the rift.

Your exceptional performance in the college entrance examination has given you more options. After careful consideration, you've chosen to apply to the Central Conservatory of Music, located next to Jiang Yao's school.

Jiang Yao was very satisfied with your attitude. At the graduation banquets of both families, both sets of parents tried to matchmake you two. This time... Jiang Yao didn't resist; instead, she showed a rare hint of shyness.

Afterwards, you asked her why, and that's when you learned... that Jiang Yao rejected you because she hoped you would focus on your studies. Plus, her best friend interfered, advising her not to choose you and setting up a test for you.

If you are sincere, even if you are rejected, you will still regain your confidence, work hard to improve yourself, and continue to pursue her.

If you're only pretending and are merely seeking momentary pleasure, you'll quickly give up.

Clearly, you chose the latter option at the time.

Hey!

What an idiot best friend.

Lin Chuan was so angry that his face turned green. Just because of one sentence, she rejected him in public. Jiang Yao, is your brain filled with water?

Another test?

At least other games give you a progress bar, but when it comes to you, all you get is a flimsy "test"?

Seeing this, Lin Chuan suddenly realized how accurate the system's assessment of his personality as willful, capricious, and headstrong was.

This girl is just a self-righteous "commoner".

[You believe her best friend has a problem and suggest Jiang Yao sever ties with her.]

But Jiang Yao didn't think so; she believed her best friend meant well.

Depend on!

You bunch of "ordinary women," I'm not putting up with you anymore.

How comfortable is that sweet and soft rose girl? If I weren't a system, would I choose you?

Lin Chuan thought indignantly.

In the dating simulation—

Feeling depressed, you sought out Xiao Mei, and under the influence of alcohol, you poured out your pent-up frustrations to her.

Congratulations! You've taken a significant step towards becoming a relationship expert and have gained a female best friend.

Reward: The title of "Closest Friend".

System, you don't have to be so realistic.

Lin Chuan blushed, realizing that he wasn't such a good person after all!

But there are reasons for all of this.

If the system hadn't forced him to choose Jiang Yao, he would definitely have been devoted to Xiao Mei. How could he possibly be drinking with other girls in the middle of the night?

Lin Chuan tried to comfort himself and restore his image as a good man.

Xiao Mei comforted you for a long time, and your cold relationship finally began to recover.

Although... she often subtly reminds you that a "common-belief woman's" lover is not a good choice, and that if you marry her, you will definitely be unhappy in the future.

You saw through her attempts to sow discord, but annoyed by Jiang Yao's best friend, you ultimately chose to remain silent.

Lin Chuan: "..."

Ahem, let's continue, let's continue the simulation.

There's no need to say more.

[During summer vacation, you and Jiang Yao went to the City of Wind, Flowers, Snow, and Moon for a trip, and there, you naturally confirmed your relationship.]

Fortunately, although Jiang Yao maintained her friendship with her best friend, she retained her own thoughts and opinions regarding her friend's advice.

You have successfully gained admission to university.

No… where is that well-dressed gentleman?

Why did the video just disappear?

Not even a name has appeared?

In this situation, shouldn't the male supporting character relentlessly pursue the other man, sow discord, and engage in various sarcastic remarks and backstabbing tactics?

Is that how he finished filming?

"Alright, Brother B, it seems I overestimated you."

"Your skills are just average; you need to practice more."

Lin Chuan continued to choose simulation.

During your university years, thanks to the foundation you built up, you quickly entered a period of rapid growth in your life and career.

You and Jiang Yao became the celebrity couple of Beijing University and the Central Academy of Fine Arts. Almost all students at both schools knew that the freshman beauty of Beijing University had been captured by the musical prodigy of the neighboring Central Academy of Fine Arts.

[Your online novels also became wildly popular, making you the originator of the "depressing romance" genre in online literature. Taking advantage of this opportunity, you began building your personal brand and, through music and literature, joined the wave of short video development.]

You became a top-tier online influencer with millions of followers, established your own studio within the university, and founded an MCN (Multi-Channel Network) company.

On screen, you appear glamorous, frequenting luxurious venues with Jiang Yao. You go to the beach together, travel abroad, hike and swim, and savor cuisines from around the world.

Fans across the internet are praising you two as a perfect couple; the phrase "a handsome man and a beautiful woman" is embodied in you. Even teachers from the Beijing Municipal Bureau of Culture and Tourism and school admissions offices have contacted you to ask you to help film promotional videos.

In the promotional video, you stood tall and confident, while Jiang Yao nestled beside you, smiling gently. You two became an internet sensation, a national role model for romance.

From childhood sweethearts to lovers at prestigious universities, your journey of mutual growth and success in both career and love is the envy of everyone.

[Besides Xiao Mei...]

She hid in the cramped basement, staring at the screen with her breath reeking of alcohol, surrounded by scattered bottles and crushed empty cans.

"I feel like a stinking rat in a sewer, hiding here spying on other people's happiness." She slumped onto the messy floor, a cigarette dangling from her lips, her disheveled hair obscuring her face.

Lin Chuan: "..."

Damn it!

Idiot system!

You're going to chase after me and kill me, aren't you?
