The main personality has never... appeared?
Mu An was completely shocked, followed by a long silence.
Rationality told him that Tong Ziran was just one of many heroines.
At most, she could be considered a gold mine tied to him for emotional rewards.
As a professional villain, he shouldn't invest any feelings in her, nor let emotions affect his judgment and interests.
But... thinking back to the time the girl had spent by his side recently.
Each heartfelt smile, every sweet "Brother Mu An," jealousy, happiness, anger, and resentment... all vivid in his mind!
The man's heart couldn't help but tremble.
Silence.
Both of them remained silent for a long time.
It felt like they were drowning in an unfathomable sea, surrounded by suffocating despair.
"Is there really no other way?"
In the end, it was Mu An who broke the silence first.
'This is a hard-won gold mine I've tied to my side.'
'If I could, I certainly wouldn't want to give up so easily!'
He comforted himself with this self-deception in his heart.
"There is, but it's very difficult."
"What method?"
'Tong Ziran' fluttered her eyelashes, raised her gaze, and looked directly at the man, as if she could see through his heart.
"Give her enough companionship and... love."
"That doesn't seem too difficult, right?"
Mu An recalled his recent attitude towards Tong Ziran and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
But the girl's next words nearly suffocated him.
"Do you know why she has been crazily developing other personalities?"
As she spoke, 'Tong Ziran' revealed a hint of sarcasm at the corner of her mouth.
"Because the main personality knows... you actually don't love her."
"..."
Mu An fell silent again.
This statement... was indeed not wrong.
Love itself is a heavy topic, heavy enough to bend a person's spine, heavy enough to make it hard to breathe.
Especially unrequited love!
And upon introspection, Mu An couldn't honestly say he loved Tong Ziran.
At most, he had a slight fondness for her like that of a younger sister...
"Heh, it's my first time seeing the main personality so agitated; she's already trying to shut me up."
"Too bad her mental strength is too weak after splitting into multiple personalities."
"Even the latest split personality is no match for her, let alone me, the second personality!"
'Tong Ziran' chuckled lightly, then turned her gaze back to the man and said seriously.
"I don't expect you to fall in love with her, nor do I want to morally bind you."
"But if possible, please spend more time with her, just consider it a pity for this little poor thing!"
"In the future, you don't need to worry too much about the other personalities, including me, because in a sense, we are all the main personality."
"As long as the main personality is willing, she can be any of us at any time."
After saying this, the girl actively 'returned,' lying back and falling asleep immediately.
"I..."
Mu An opened his mouth, speechless.
At the same time, he had also asked the system whether the 'God-level Healing Technique' he mastered could directly treat the girl's condition.
The answer he received was... 'yes.'
But it could also be considered 'no.'
The healing technique could indeed directly eliminate other personalities.
But after treatment, only the current strongest personality would remain.
According to what 'Tong Ziran's' second personality had said earlier, the strongest personality now was her, not the main personality.
The main personality was not only weak but was also the weakest among all personalities, with her mental strength nearly gone.
"You, you really have given me a big problem!"
Mu An looked at the girl lying on the bed, reached out to smooth her slightly furrowed brow, and couldn't help but shake his head.
As for the girl's 'strange illness' of lacking love... to be honest, Mu An didn't know what to do either.
He wasn't a god, just a person, and could only go with the flow for now.
Or perhaps try to... fall in love with her?
…..
The next day.
Tong Ziran felt she had a very beautiful dream.
In the dream, she married her most favorite childhood friend.
Amidst a sky full of petals, the man knelt on one knee, holding a diamond ring, asking her with deep affection if she was willing to marry him.
Tears welled up in Tong Ziran's eyes as she nodded without hesitation.
"I do!"
From then on, they grew old together, loving each other until the seas dried up and the stones crumbled, until the earth and sky aged.
Though the days were plain, every day was incredibly happy for her...
"What's wrong?"
The man's deep and magnetic voice rang in the girl's ear.
For a moment, she couldn't tell whether this was reality or a dream, and she couldn't help but reach out her delicate hand to gently caress the man's cheek.
"Brother Mu An, how wonderful it would be if this scene were real..."
Tong Ziran's beautiful eyes were filled with affection as she couldn't help but murmur to herself.
Mu An's mouth twitched slightly.
Then... he gave the girl's perky bottom a hard pinch, causing her to cry out in pain.
…..
After a while.
Tong Ziran, now fully awake, rubbed her still sore bottom and looked at her childhood friend with a wronged expression.
"Brother Mu An, can't you be gentler?"
[From the girl's feeling of grievance, emotional fluctuation +15, congratulations, you have received the reward [Proficiency +2000]!]
"Isn't this to help you realize whether it's reality or a dream?"
Mu An smiled without humor.
He glanced at the girl's slightly disheveled pajamas, instinctively wanting to remind her to 'fix her clothes.'
But after thinking about it, he decided not to say anything.
Why?
Because he was afraid that if the girl felt 'stimulated,' she would take them all off on the spot!
And don't think it's absurd.
Mu An believed that Tong Ziran, this 'deeply rooted' girl, could definitely do something so outrageous.
"Oh no! This is bad!"
The girl seemed to have realized something, suddenly looking distressed, like a tragic little bitter melon.
Mu An rolled his eyes.
"What's wrong with you again?" The girl looked at him seriously and said.
"I was thinking of sneaking in last night, but somehow I ended up falling asleep in a daze."
"I missed the chance to do the long-awaited embarrassing thing with Brother Mu An. What a huge loss!"
"But being able to hold you and sleep soundly is enough for me! Hehehe..."
+1 for the girl's satisfied silly smile.
The man's eyelids twitched.
'Is that all it takes to be surprised?'
As for why the other party had no memory of last night...
It might have to wait until the next time the second personality comes out to ask.
Mu An's thoughts in his mind came to an end for now.
Then... the girl received a light but firm chop on her forehead.
And a series of emotional rewards!
[From the girl's happy emotional fluctuation +16, congratulations, you have received the reward [Cultivation Years +2 years]!]
[From the girl's aggrieved emotional fluctuation +18, congratulations, you have received the reward [Book: The Super Incredibly Happy Thing About My Night Raid Failing and Only Being Able to Sleep with My Dearest Childhood Friend]!]
