What To Do If The Heroine Escapes From The Book

“But Qiuqiu,” Chu Ge said as he looked at the screen, his expression deepening, “Have you ever thought… If we delete this sentence, it’s not a big deal. But what about the next sentence?”

The next sentence…

If I’m looking for a man, why not the Creator God?

Qiu Wuji turned her head to look at Chu Ge’s profile.

If this sentence is deleted, will it have an impact on everyone’s present…?

Chu Ge looked at the screen in silence, and Qiu Wuji looked at him without speaking.

This sentence was still in the script.

Previously, Chu Ge definitely didn’t think about deleting something so important, and Qiu Wuji didn’t think too much and just followed the script.

But now, when they were discussing it, they both realized that without this cause-and-effect, this abrupt sentence, there would still be a flaw in the world.

Should they delete or modify it?

But should they delete it, or keep it and find another way to make it smoother?

After a few seconds, Qiu Wuji smiled and said, “If you don’t want to delete it… then don’t delete it, let’s make some changes.”

“No,” Chu Ge said calmly. “Delete it.”

Qiu Wuji’s smile faded, and she looked at him quietly. “If this sentence is deleted, I might not even have the intention to look for a man, let alone whether it’s you or not.”

Yes, the key point of this sentence was not the latter half but the first half.

The setting that Qiu Wuji, who had spent countless years in pure cultivation, “would look for a man” was opened by this sentence, and the latter half only reinforced the definition of what kind of man she would seek.

Without this sentence, she wouldn’t even have the intention to seek a man, let alone love. That was a distant possibility.

Chu Ge smiled faintly. “I can feel the truth between you and me. Since the word ‘love’ has been brought up, how could it be extinguished just because we delete that source? If we delete that sentence, and you stop liking me… then it means that the previous feelings were just something I wrote, not real… I wouldn’t want to obtain you in that way anyway.”

Qiu Wuji calmly replied, “At least you have me now. If it’s deleted, what if we lose what we have?”

Chu Ge’s gaze finally shifted from the screen to her face, and he said earnestly, “Then I’ll pursue you again.”

Qiu Wuji: “…”

“Even if I can’t win you over, I’ll pursue you for a lifetime,” Chu Ge said calmly. “Qiu Wuji, I’m determined to chase after you.”

Qiu Wuji frowned, “I might kill you.”

“You can’t do anything to me,” Chu Ge chuckled. “In this world, you’re just a strand of soul. In terms of raw power, you’re not much stronger than me. Plus, the world’s environment here doesn’t allow you to randomly kill people. In the book, you’re powerful, but sorry, I’m the heaven.”

Qiu Wuji gritted her teeth. “Are you feeling proud of yourself? I taught you so much, just so you could say that I can’t do anything to you? You rebel!”

“Cough…” Chu Ge quickly changed the topic. “We used to speculate how much that sentence influenced our feelings for each other, like a thorn in our hearts. But now, we don’t need to guess anymore. Deleting it is enough.”

As he spoke, he proactively moved the mouse and deleted the entire section of finished drawings on the computer. “I just… don’t want to obtain you because of a written setting.”

Qiu Wuji watched him delete it with a fixed gaze. Her right hand unconsciously lifted as if to stop him, showing some concern, but she ultimately didn’t stop him.

Since the comic script was personally edited by Chu Ge and came from his pen, it naturally had the same effect as the original work, like an illustration patch. However, since the comic changed while the original didn’t, there was a question of which had the stronger effect. Currently, it wasn’t easy to say.

From the current perspective, due to the wider acceptance and recognition of the comic, it might have a greater impact than the original work. It’s just that because the comic hadn’t completely taken off yet, it wasn’t so pronounced; one could only say it had the potential.

So Xie Jiuxiao’s feeling that the flaw in the Heavenly Dao was showing signs of being rectified rather than already fixed was reasonable. Of course, this was because, for one, many parts had not been changed yet, and secondly, the effect was relatively vague and not so obvious.

However, the impact on the characters themselves was very noticeable.

Whether it was still a passionate love or the beginning of indifference, whether she still liked him as much as before or not, and even if she was gradually losing interest in men, Qiu Wuji knew all of this very clearly in her heart.

Qiu Wuji felt conflicted and didn’t know whether she should stop him or not. She certainly hoped to restore her true inner feelings but also didn’t want to lose the feeling of being in love with him.

Their love for each other… it had been so wonderful during this time…

Even if it was triggered by that one sentence, it was still wonderful…

But if that one sentence was gone…

Huh?

Qiu Wuji blinked her eyes.

Chu Ge was looking at her expectantly. “How do you feel?”

Qiu Wuji scowled. “You audacious man, where did you find the courage to sit so close to me?”

Chu Ge’s relieved heart soared, and he immediately hugged her tightly. “That’s great…”

“Hey!” Qiu Wuji struggled. “This seat meant for the audacious man not to sit so close! Did you misunderstand me?”

“Maybe you should learn acting from the Little Flame,” Chu Ge squeezed her even tighter, saying, “You don’t seem convincing at all. It’s really great. I knew… you liked me, you already do, and it has nothing to do with that sentence anymore…”

Feeling his arm’s strength, Qiu Wuji’s heart softened as well. She patted his back gently and softly said, “Okay… you’re really something. You could have acted like you didn’t understand at all and gradually embraced me, isn’t that more romantic?”

“I couldn’t wait… I just wanted to hold you tightly,” Chu Ge whispered, “Do you know how nervous I was just now?”

“You pretended to be so calm; I thought you didn’t care.”

“How is that possible…” Chu Ge kissed her cheek. “Even if you were a little bit colder towards me, I would be very upset. But I… I just want the real you, and I know you only want to be your true self. Now, without that sentence, we don’t have to doubt anymore. This is the true us.”

In reality, that sentence still had an impact, at least it initiated the story arc. But as of today, the word “love” had already come into play, and it was impossible to change what had already happened. The little moments they had shared and their love for each other remained in their hearts, unrelated to that sentence.

Chu Ge felt a great sense of relief, as if they had crossed a hurdle that had been looming between them for a long time.

She likes me!

“Well,” Qiu Wuji responded in a low voice, “I haven’t thought about this for a long time. I felt that since it has come to this point, we should just enjoy the present. You’ve been so good to me, and in the end, does it really matter why it all started back then? But when you wanted to delete it, I was a bit nervous, yet also happy. Everyone wants to be their true selves, thank you.”

She paused for a moment, then chuckled, “Actually, upon further thought, I should be thankful for that sentence. Without it, how would I have known that there could be someone as wonderful as you in this world?”

Both of them were overwhelmed with emotions and, almost unconsciously, they kissed each other.

Chu Ge felt another kind of excitement.

Right now, they were in company… in the boss’s office.

Qiu Wuji was not only the female boss but also the chief editor…

And she was wearing a skirt with black stockings, glasses, and had an intelligent appearance… reclining on the dignified office desk, documents scattered around, her clothes disheveled.

Damn, he had convinced her to wear that skirt and stockings, all for the sake of this scene, right? He didn’t expect it to actually come true.

He was really riding the wave of fortune, and he had Qiuqiu, which was like having the world!

He also needed to thank the king of assists, Sister Mengmeng, for making her glasses look so good!

Sister Mengmeng, thank you.

Click! The door made a sound as Zhu Mengmeng poked her head in.

The air froze.

“You guys…” Zhu Mengmeng was amazed, “You came to the office for this on your first visit? I feel like I’m incompatible with you because I’m not perverted enough…”

Qiu Wuji angrily flipped Chu Ge over and hastily tidied up her clothes. “You don’t know how to knock! You’re dead, Mengmeng!”

“How was I supposed to know you two were so eager?” Zhu Mengmeng whispered, “We didn’t soundproof this place properly; you should be more careful.”

Chu Ge gritted his teeth.

Sister Mengmeng, I hate you.

Qiu Wuji put on her high heels, looked a bit flustered as she headed towards the door, but suddenly turned back, smiled at Chu Ge, and lightly tapped his head three times.

After those taps, her mood seemed to improve, and she walked away, swaying her hips with her hands behind her back.
