The system stated.
You will be more susceptible to attracting harassers than the average person.
‘What?!’ Xia Xin was shocked. She thought carefully and realized the meaning behind those words. ‘So, encountering people like Zhang Liang and Tang Hai was due to the passive attraction caused by the Beast Language System? What a mess!’
Xia Xin had thought her luck was bad this year, leading her to meet some odd people. It turned out it was because of the Beast Language System. She suddenly realized that there were no free lunches in life; every seemingly good opportunity came with its own traps.
The system continued to warn Xia Xin.
As the Beast Language System upgrades, your attraction to danger will also increase.
Xia Xin felt helpless and questioned, “So, to ensure my safety, should I avoid upgrading the Beast Language System?”
The system reassured Xia Xin.
There’s no need to worry. There’s a way to deactivate the passive danger attraction of the Beast Language System. You just have to find true love.
Xia Xin became even more disheartened. She had been single for twenty-four years, and in her previous life, she had remained single as well. Finding a partner wasn’t as easy as it sounded!
This was when Xia Xin realized once again how urgently she needed the Bone Cleansing Elixir. Only by quickly becoming stronger could she cope with the increasing troubles.
Xia Xin’s phone rang, and the system interface disappeared. She answered the call; it was from the police station.
The police officer said, “Miss Xia, from our investigation, we have determined that Tang Hai sutters trom dissociative identity disorder. The triendly, honest Tang Hai you usually see is his primary personality, while the one who committed the crimes that day is his secondary personality.”
Although Xia Xin had suspected that Tang Hai might have had mental issues, she didn’t expect it to be a dissociative identity disorder. She asked, “But Tang Hai doesn’t seem to have much stress at work, and Mr. Lu treats him well. Can you explain how the secondary personality emerged?”
The police officer explained, “We looked into Tang Hai’s background. His parents divorced, and his stepmother treated him poorly. His father also wanted to rid himself of the burden and would mistreat Tang Hai behind closed doors. Over time, Tang Hai developed the secondary personality as a means of self-preservation.”
Xia Xin never imagined that the kind and friendly Tang Hai she knew had such a painful past. She asked the police officer, “So, how will Tang Hail s actions be dealt with?”
The police officer replied, “Tang Hai will be sent to a mental institution for supervision. His future actions will be determined based on his recovery progress.”
“Thank you for informing me,” Xia Xin said.
The police officer added, “Tang Hai is currently in control of his primary personality, and he would like to speak with you to apologize for his previous actions. Would you be willing to take his call, Miss Nia?”
Xia Xin thought that even if Tang Hai had committed many wrongs, it was his secondary personality that had done them. It wasn’t his fault. It was just a phone call, so she agreed.
When Tang Hai answered the phone, he hesitated for a moment before tentatively saying, “Xia Xin?”
Before Xia Xin could respond, Layle had already become anxious, in a defensive posture by Xia Xin’s side, vigilantly watching the phone. Xia Xin understood that it was Layle’s stress response. She reached out and stroked Layle’s head, soothing his emotions. Soon, Layle calmed down.
Xia Xin replied, “Tang Hai.”
Tang Hai let out a sigh of relief; he had been worried that Xia Xin wouldn’t answer his call, denying him the chance to apologize. He said, “Thank you for taking my call. To be honest, when the police contacted you, I was really anxious.”
Xia Xin felt sympathy for Tang Hai, who was also a victim. She patiently listened to him.
Tang Hai continued, “I deeply regret my actions and the harm I caused you. I can’t expect your forgiveness, but I genuinely want to apologize to you. Even though it was my secondary personality’s actions, I can’t forgive myself.”
Xia Xin replied, “Tang Hai, actually, I don’t blame you anymore. What happened is in the past, and at least now, we’re both okay.”
Tang Hai sighed, “You’re a very kind-hearted girl, always willing to help others, be it humans or animals. I… really liked you, but I didn’t expect that my feelings would only bring you more and more harm. I’m truly sorry. I just hope you’ll have a better future..
