There's a system he likes.

He liked this system for a long time. 

He was his first love. And he'd been wishing to confess.

Yet that system... did not seem to have recognized him. At worse, that system might have forgotten about him after the long years that they had been apart.

They were quite close. At least he thought so.

His name changed and he was taller, manlier and the total opposite of the little angel that he was as a child.

Realizing this made him a coward and so after flying back to the country, Zhao Long chose to watch over him from a distance, satisfying himself with glimpses of his figure.

The time they spent together before he left was a meager one year. Still, that single year took away his heart and Zhao Long only realized this late when he wasn't by his side anymore.

He was happy just seeing him from afar after coming back...

from High school ...

to University ...

and now, their workplace...

But with him being so close to his side, Zhao Long felt the greed to somehow become someone special to him and stop from being a background character that he casually passes by.

The scent of lemon was intoxicating ... the system liked that scent very much and Zhao  Long's ears would turn red whenever he was in close proximity.

Zhao Long's face was somehow paralyzed that he did not know how to even smile. Naturally because of this, he had always been mistaken as a cold and introverted person which made it more difficult for him to actually talk to anyone ...

[ Admin's Sweetheart ( ^▽^): So other than you ... there's no one who I could ask for advice ...]

"W-Wait a second there. System, maybe i'm wrong but did you just low key identified yourself as a stalker?" After being transported into his own novel, the author was tied to this system that was a bit too shy to talk to.

Yet once it opened it's mouth, it started recounting its own Love story and not only that, revealed his stalking tendencies?!

Hey! I didn't sign up for this! This system doesn't make me feel safe
( ╯°□°)╯ ┻━━┻

[ Admin's Sweetheart ( ^▽^): I do admit that i'm a stalker. But I never assaulted him nor even touched him ... we barely even talk ...]

Having fantasies weren't considered a crime.

[ Admin's Sweetheart ( ^▽^): I really wish to talk to him like the old times. Hang out and play games ... play games ... with him.]

The author felt a shiver travel his spine, uneasy about the sudden emphasis on the the phrase play-games-with-him. ah ...

"Why don't you just talk with him and tell him who you are? Won't that help you two get closer?"

[ Admin's Sweetheart ( ^▽^): But he didn't recognize me ... maybe he really did forget about me and that will kill me...]

"Being forgotten wouldn't kill you! Just help him remember by recounting your memories together, it's so easy!"

--- The system '-Admin's Sweetheart ( ^▽^)' had deducted 100 points. Remaining 436 pts.

"Hey! What did I do for you to deduct that much?!"

[ Admin's Sweetheart ( ^▽^): There's still a chance that he had not forgotten about me and It's not easy ... if it was, I wouldn't be stalking him for years now.]
