The system received my request and was silent for a moment.

[Host, you are an outstanding employee at the Quick Transmigration Bureau. However, three years ago you used all your points to exchange for residency in a small world. Due to humanitarian reasons, this system is conducting a follow-up visit. May I ask the host, are you certain you want to leave the small world?]

My heart was filled with mixed emotions, but in the end, I fiercely wiped away the tears at the corner of my eyes.

"Confirm! I request to leave the world!"

[After leaving the world, the host will need to work for the Quick Transmigration Bureau for another twenty years to repay the departure points.]

"I know! I want to leave!"

No matter what the system said, there was only one thought left in my mind.

I want to go.

I never knew I was a coward, but today, I found out.

I couldn't confront Shen Qingchen head-on, nor could I face the person I loved turning rotten overnight.

The man who once promised to love me for a lifetime betrayed me and had an affair, even expecting an... imminent illegitimate child...

My dream shattered.

I chose to escape.

Escaping doesn't solve the problem, but at least it lets me avoid facing it for eternity.

The system was silent again for a moment, seemingly sighing.

[Former outstanding employee Ning Zhu has confirmed the request, initiating the procedure to leave the small world.]

[Countdown: Three days.]

[Host, treasure your last moments.]

The system left behind a sentence and departed, yet I, as if reborn, showed a tearful smile.

Around me were luxury villas, glamorous clothes, gourmet food, branded jewelry, everything one could wish for.

Except Shen Qingchen.

Today is my birthday, and he didn't accompany me.

I looked at the opulence everywhere, yet a phrase echoed in my mind.

"The story has ended, leaving only trivialities behind."
