Chapter 308 I'll Give You a Lifetime of Good Times
This has always been Jiang Xingni's principle.
It has never changed.
Jiang Xingni had been considering when he should reveal the Hidden Order Society, and now this was a good opportunity.
On the other side of the chat box, He Jingtong remained silent for a long time, staring at the words Jiang Xingni had sent—"Beyond the veil, billions of humans all have the right to know the whole truth."
To be honest, these words are incomprehensible to most people who grew up in the world of superpowered individuals.
Not to mention He Jingtong, who grew up under even more extreme circumstances.
He was taught from a young age that people are divided into different classes, ordinary people have no abilities, so they should be protected by people with abilities like them. They don't need to know the truth, they are too weak, and even if they knew the truth, what could they change?
They can't change anything; they're just adding to their sorrow.
With his limited emotional intelligence, He Jingtong tried his best to express his thoughts tactfully.
He Jingtong: [Is this really necessary?]
He Jingtong: [Most people in this world live mediocre lives. You must let them know how dangerous the world they live in is. When that happens, will they accept it, or refuse to accept it, to the point of mental breakdown?]
Jiang Xingni had considered the possibilities raised by He Jingtong—the world of superhumans had all the information in their own hands and had been running smoothly for decades. If there were no VOID, they would probably still be able to continue to operate.
She pursed her lips, actually not really wanting to discuss these issues with He Jingtong.
She knew that she and He Jingtong had different values in this regard, and they both shared this consensus. Therefore, most of the time, they would avoid mentioning this topic in front of each other—simply out of respect for one another.
Behind his back, Jiang Xingni also secretly cursed He Jingtong to the system, wondering what he was really thinking.
So, upon closer examination, this was the first time Jiang Xingni had discussed the conflict between their views with He Jingtong.
Jiang Xingni: [Because no one can dictate who is on a higher level, who is born entitled to know the truth, and who is born to be kept in the dark.]
Jiang Xingni: [No one is born to be a lamb to be shepherded.]
He Jingtong stared at Jiang Xingni's words.
He Jingtong: [I still find it hard to understand.]
No further replies were received.
He Jingtong originally wanted to make more promises to Jiang Xingni.
These things didn't align much with He Jingtong's own values, and it was even more difficult for Jiang Xingni and He Jingtong to be considered kindred spirits in this regard.
However, He Jingtong carefully analyzed his current thoughts and realized that he didn't really have any principles to begin with, so he might as well make Jiang Xingni more satisfied.
With this thought in mind, He Jingtong hesitated again while typing and sending the message—what if Jiang Xingni wanted someone who shared her ideals? Would someone like him, who had different values and was not sincere, be kicked out by her?
Caught between two conflicting opinions, He Jingtong finally uttered only this sentence before falling into distress.
Jiang Xingni, of course, had no idea that He Jingtong was still struggling on the other side of the internet. She wasn't too discouraged by He Jingtong's words. After all, she knew what kind of personality He Jingtong had, and she never thought that she could change He Jingtong's childhood beliefs with just a few words.
If she were really that capable, she wouldn't need to rack her brains to subtly influence Lu Xianqing.
She came to her senses and found herself in a commercial area with her teammates, away from the busy streets. Xiao Jiming finally felt relieved, and then Song Juexiao, who was with a child—specifically Lu Xianqing—called her over.
Feeling bored, Pei Zhaoye went into an internet cafe.
So only Jiang Xingni and Xie Yungui remained in the vicinity.
During this rare moment alone together, Jiang Xingni knew very well that she should use this hard-won opportunity to ask about more important things.
For example... Jiang Xingni still couldn't understand what kind of emergency situation allowed her to tell Xie Yungui that they were actually all comic book characters—or that her information could be synchronized across multiple timelines, so that once one Xie Yungui knew, every Xie Yungui that "Jiang Xingni" encountered in the future would know this news.
But right now, Jiang Xingni has a more important question he wants Xie Yungui to answer.
"Would those people have died like this if I hadn't existed?"
She asked Xie Yungui.
Of all the futures Xie Yungui had seen, she believed there was always a possibility that she would die before this event.
That's exactly what she wanted to know.
If she had died before all these things happened, would so many people still be dying like this during the midterm exams?
Was the midterm exam scenario a deliberate attempt by the writers to target her, or was it simply the ultimate goal of the plot?
Did those people die because of her?
Xie Yungui lowered his eyes, not looking into Jiang Xingni's eyes.
"I don't know." He shifted his gaze. "I went back in time the moment you died, how could I possibly know what happened after you died?"
……
Jiang Xingni was speechless for a moment.
She hates people who are obsessed with romance, especially those who are obsessed with romance and don't even need information, and who can't provide her with any useful information now!
But she simply couldn't criticize Xie Yungui in this place.
Xie Yungui's biggest mistake was being too love-struck. After Jiang Xingni died in each timeline, he seamlessly transitioned back to when Jiang Xingni was still alive.
Jiang Xing silently complained to the system in his heart: "Thank goodness Xie Yungui didn't continue reading."
Otherwise, among so many timelines, there must be one in which she successfully faked her death, gained a lot of popularity, and successfully escaped from death.
As it turned out, He Jingtong died too early, and in every timeline, he thought death was Jiang Xingni's final fate.
I didn't go to see if she could be resurrected in the end.
Xie Yungui hesitated for a moment before answering her question.
"It's not a black-and-white situation," Xie Yungui said in a low voice.
The fact that Jiang Xingni's survival led to the deaths of many more people, and the fact that these people were able to survive after her death, are not related on the same scale.
Different timelines are influenced by different factors. If everything were as simple as controlling variables, and all other factors didn't need to be considered, then Xie Yungui wouldn't have had to go through so many trials because of Jiang Xingni's death.
All we need to do is deal with the reason that led to Jiang Xingni's death.
Why go through all that trouble to start over so many times, wasting your youth for Jiang Xingni?
