Chapter 1997: So Many Friends…

Chapter 1997: So Many Friends…

This was a world that only respected the strong. All truths were shown through strength.

Lian Bingmeng thought that she understood the feeling of what it was like to be weak, so the way she treated Yue Shuangshuang was with sympathy and a kind of charity.

Lian Bingmeng felt that she had been very good to Yue Shuangshuang, but Yue Shuangshuang actually betrayed her.

As for Yue Shuangshuang? The person she had a crush on liked Lian Bingmeng and followed Lian Bingmeng around every day, but Lian Bingmeng just said that they were friends.

All the men around her were friends. Friends who she could entrust her life to.

Friends that, in the face of danger, she could trust to guard her back.

So many friends…

All the men around Lian Bingmeng revolved around her as if she was the pure, luminous moon that they worshiped.

As for Yue Shuangshuang? She didn’t have talent and wasn’t strong, so no one would pay any attention to her.

In the end, it was because she was too weak.

You had to have strength in order to have a say in the world.

Yue Shuangshuang’s current wish was to become strong. As for wanting to defeat Lian Bingmeng, it had just been for the sake of proving that she was stronger than Lian Bingmeng.

She had been unwilling to accept the state of things.

“Can you counterattack for me?” asked Yue Shuangshuang as she looked towards Ning Shu.

Yue Shuangshuang said in a low voice, “I really can’t stand how they look at me. I’m weak. So the people who can’t defeat Lian Bingmeng targeted me instead since I was close with Lian Bingmeng.

“But every time this happened, Lian Bingmeng would appear like a savior to fight for justice on my behalf. I really can’t take it anymore.”

“If I say that I don’t want to be friends with Lian Bingmeng, the people around her would say that I’m ungrateful.” Yue Shuangshuang lowered her head. “I can’t breathe.”

It felt like she would never be able to get out of Lian Bingmeng’s shadow. No matter what she did, she couldn’t get free from Lian Bingmeng.

Everyone looked at her as if she was just a shameless hanger-on. She was so weak, yet she kept brazenly following the goddess Lian Bingmeng around.

“So is your wish to defeat Lian Bingmeng?” asked Ning Shu.

“I want to become strong,” said Yue Shuangshuang. “If I became strong, the boy I like would like me.”

Ning Shu couldn’t help but ask, “If you become strong, you’ll already be a more outstanding person. After becoming that good, why bother still liking him?”

Yue Shuangshuang was taken aback for a moment, then she said, “You have a point.”

“He doesn’t care about me at all. As I was dying, he was still glaring at me with indignation. Is Lian Bingmeng really that great?” asked Yue Shuangshuang.

“Everyone likes doing things in groups, including liking the same person in a group,” said Ning Shu offhandedly.

Lian Bingmeng was powerful and beautiful. It was normal that men liked her.

“Can you counterattack for me?” asked Yue Shuangshuang once again.

Ning Shu considered it. She had never been to a world like this before, so maybe she’d get something out of it. As of now, her top priority was getting world origin powers.

Even if she became an ultra task-taker, if she didn’t construct her own world, she would still have no way of controlling her own destiny.

On the other hand, even if she was just an advanced task-taker, as long as she had constructed her own world, she would still be able to have more control of her own destiny.
