I Have Yet to Become a Doll Today

Chapter 859: Chapter 859 Too Strange
 

Du Lai wouldn’t come to Bai Youwei without a reason.

Because the fortune-telling sign told him that Bai Youwei was his last hope, he persisted so persistently, repeatedly pleading with Bai Youwei to save Fu Miaoxue.

Finally, Bai Youwei loosened up and told Du Lai that she would consider it.

Du Lai said, “Miaoxue is now a puppet, and even if she doesn’t eat, drink, or sleep for a long time, her body won’t have any problem. Chen Hui, Leonid, and I are still subjects, which is enough to show that she is currently fine.

However, the longer she stays in the dream, the harder it is to distinguish between dream and reality. If she hasn’t come out of Maze No.1 by the time the battle game starts… by then, she will be directly eliminated from the game, and we will become commoners, so… Bai Youwei, make your decision quickly.”

After saying all this, Du Lai finally left the Shen Family.

The originally lively and relaxed atmosphere dispersed completely due to his visit.

Shen Fei came in like a deliveryman, carrying the insulated bag, and said to himself, “There are several families gathering for a meal today, and the chefs are particularly in demand. Mom and Auntie are both watching over the chefs. They asked me first to bring some food back. There are two or three more dishes to come once they are ready.”

He took out the meal boxes from the insulated bag one by one but looked up to find everyone motionless, and he couldn’t help but be stunned, “What’s… what’s wrong?”

“Ah…” Shen’s father sighed and turned to enter the kitchen.

Teacher Cheng also sighed and sat down worriedly.

Tan Xiao pulled Pan Xiaoxin, and each grabbed a handful of sunflower seeds, continuing to eat them.

The atmosphere seemed to gradually recover.

But Bai Youwei couldn’t smile anymore; her mind was full of the words Du Lai said before he left—

Don’t you want to know where she is?

Don’t you want to know how she’s doing?

She’s supposed to be your only relative in this world, right?

…

Regarding Fu Miaoxue, Du Lai wouldn’t lie; if that Crystal Ball shard could really reveal her mother’s location, she could indeed use it to find her mother.

Shen Mo observed Bai Youwei’s expression and said in a low voice, “The risk is too great, you don’t need to consider it. If you want to find Auntie Wang, we can think of other ways.”

Shen Mo was reminding her that there were many ways to find someone; it didn’t necessarily have to be through Du Lai’s item, because accepting Du Lai’s deal meant that Bai Youwei needed to enter the maze, and the risks of entering the maze were too great. If she went and couldn’t return, the loss would outweigh the gain.

Bai Youwei frowned deeply and thought carefully, “…I think I know why that sign prompted Du Lai to find me.”

“Why?” Shen Mo asked.

Her brow was tightly knitted as she said, “Because I have that item…but that’s not the point now; what we need to figure out now is why Fu Miaoxue couldn’t get out.”

Shen Mo wasn’t pleased, and his expression was slightly cold, “You still want to go?”

“I don’t know…” Bai Youwei sighed softly, “It’s just too bizarre. Let’s go back to the headquarters and see Chen Hui, shall we? I want to ask her what exactly Maze No.1 is like.”

Shen Mo knew she wasn’t giving up, raised his hand to stroke her hair, and said, “Let’s eat first, we can talk about it when we get back.”

Bai Youwei nodded.
