Chapter 53: Forced Logout

Well, it has already been more than 30 minutes since I logged in, enough to claim the check-in reward, so I can totally quit the dating game early.

Lu Li silently said in his heart, “Log out!”

[Notice: Your session is under 2 hours; logging out early will prevent you from entering this love interest’s body for 3 days.]

[Do you wish to log out?]

Lu Li froze; so early logout carried a penalty?

The first time he logged in he had been forced offline and barred for 3 days, the second time he stayed for 4 hours and was logged out automatically, and now this time…

He quickly figured out the system: every session shorter than 2 hours also triggers a 3-day ban.

In other words, if he quits now he won’t be able to log into Chu Zining for 3 days?

Lu Li hesitated; on one hand was the 3-day ban, on the other was…

“Log out!”

[Logout successful!]

[Love interest slot 2, Chu Zining, has been locked; you cannot log in for 3 days.]

[Please claim your check-in reward.]

“Huh?” Lu Li’s heart skipped a beat; did she notice something?

Yet that little hand only touched him once before it jerked back like a startled fawn.

“W-why did it vanish again…” Chu Zining whispered with a trace of grievance; did the second personality leave because I’m safe now?

Because of that second personality, no matter what she thought, her body would never act on it.

She had no idea that her body would move on its own when she let her mind wander.

If only you’d warn me before you go next time… Chu Zining stole a glance at Lu Li’s profile, her cheeks crimson.

She had just had that one fleeting thought; if she hadn’t believed her body was still being controlled, she would never have dared to do such a thing.

“Good, good, he’s still asleep.” Chu Zining let out a sigh of relief.

If Lu Li caught her secretly touching his face, he would probably knock her out… The very thought made her scalp tingle.

“He really is handsome.” Chu Zining smiled softly, her gentle eyes curving into crescent moons; the bangs over her forehead floated lightly, revealing smooth skin.

Time slipped by unnoticed, and just as Lu Li was debating whether to wake up, the moving car suddenly halted… Jiang Chaoyun had pulled into the precinct.

“Little Chu, we’re here.” Jiang Chaoyun set the hand brake, unbuckled her belt, got out, and opened the rear door for Chu Zining.

“Come on out… why aren’t you moving?” Jiang Chaoyun asked, puzzled by the motionless Chu Zining.

Chu Zining’s face flushed bright red and she forced a wry smile. “M-my legs are numb.”

She hadn’t dared to move an inch in order to keep Lu Li as comfortable as possible.

“Hm?” Jiang Chaoyun studied her face for a moment, a hint of suspicion rising.

How come Little Chu feels like a completely different person… cool and composed earlier, now shy like a fragile girl?

The contrast was so stark that even without trying, Jiang Chaoyun sensed it at once.

Seeing Lu Li lying on Chu Zining’s lap, Jiang Chaoyun frowned slightly.

If her memory served, this guy had gone into a hotel with another pretty girl earlier.

And now he was lying on Little Chu’s lap.

Even if Little Chu had willingly let him rest there, didn’t that still mean they were close?

So this guy was toying with two girls at the same time!

“Want me to move him for you?” Jiang Chaoyun sneered.

“No, no, I can slide him off gently; please don’t wake him,” Chu Zining replied in a small, apologetic voice.

Jiang Chaoyun snorted; why be so gentle with a scumbag like this?

“It’s fine… I’m great at waking people up; leave it to me!”

With a vicious grin, Jiang Chaoyun leaned into the car and reached out her claws toward Lu Li’s arm…
