Few people know about the little cheat in the lottery system used by the Civil Affairs Bureau, but Tang Xiao is one of the few who do.
The cheat is â if you have a specific spouse in mind, and you input their name in the spouse selection box, the system would make them one of the ten possible matches. Finding your preferred match out of the ten, however, still comes down to luck.
But if you enter the same name ten times, all ten options will be your desired spouse, meaning no matter who you choose, itâll be that person.
Apparently, a tech geek who developed the system for the Civil Affairs Bureau created this loophole to help himself out. That same geek eventually snagged the girl he likes using this cheat.
Leng Chenmo filled out the spouse preference form with âI only want Tang Zhouâ ten times, obviously prepared!
Tang Xiao certainly hoped that there would be someone genuinely willing to accept Little Zhou, but if it was Leng Chenmo, Tang Xiao felt it was unrealistic. He paused a moment before retorting, âI hope so, otherwise, I wonât let you off!â
Having said that, Tang Xiao left.
Watching Tang Xiaoâs departing figure, a hint of sorrow flashed in Leng Chenmoâs eyes. He murmured to himself in a steady voice, âOtherwise, not to talk about you not letting me off, even I wouldnât be able to forgive myself!â
Having lived numerous lives and reborn countless times, he has seen it all and is indifferent to everything, except for Tang Zhou!
If he doesnât indulge Tang Zhou with love, then what was the point of his rebirth?
Thinking about what Tang Zhou had done for him, Leng Chenmoâs heart ached uncontrollably. He stood outside the sickbed, lost in his past remorse, only coming to his senses when a sky-shattering scream came from within the ward.
âAaaaaah! My face!â
As he was about to search for the source, Tang Zhouâs cries echoed from the bathroom. âMy face!!!!â
Massaging his forehead, Leng Chenmo entered the ward, standing at the door of the restroom. Seeing Tang Zhou crying in front of the mirror, he couldnât help but tease, âDonât worry about these little things.â
âHow can I not worry? You look so handsome and naturally you wouldnât care! Only those on their feet know where the shoe pinches. Ahhhh, what do I do? Iâm done for! I really am done for!â
Leaning against the bathroom door, Leng Chenmoâs tense spirit finally relaxed. He found room for some teasing, âI wonât mind.â
âWhat does it matter if you mind or not! My dream love will definitely mind, my three thousand concubines will definitely mind. What am I going to do? Iâm going to grow old alone!â
Leng Chenmo treated his wailing as white noise. The doctor said Tang Zhou broke several bones and needed proper rest. Leng Chenmo extended his arm around his: âGet back in bed. If you donât heal properly, itâll be more than just a scarred face.â
âOh, youâre right!â
Tang Zhou obediently followed Leng Chenmo out of the bathroom and into the bed. He reached out to touch his face, but Leng Chenmo cautioned him, âDonât touch. Your hand has bacteria. It might lead to an infection. Imagine your face festering in this heatâ¦â
Tang Zhou quickly pulled back his hand and laid stiffly on the sickbed, not daring to move an inch. He lamented, âTurn on the TV for me. If not, my attention will always be drawn to my face. Why am I so unlucky?â
Leng Chenmo offhandedly said, âYou can focus your attention on me instead.â
