Tu Hengchuan stepped out of the elevator and realized that Su Ping hadn't followed. He quickly pressed the button to open the elevator door just as it was about to close.
Su Ping snapped out of her daze, looked at Tu Hengchuan who was standing in front of her with a worried expression, smiled, and walked out of the elevator toward him.
Tu Hengchuan reached out his hand to her, and for some reason, the small hand that he remembered as warm and soft now felt a little cold to the touch.
He couldn't help but rub her hands with his own and asked, "Pingping, why are your hands so cold? Are you feeling unwell?"
Su Ping shook her head, looking at the door in front of her, a determined glint in her eyes.
"It's alright, let's go in. Let's not keep the master waiting."
Seeing that she wouldn't tell him the reason, Tu Hengchuan didn't press her further, but instead held her hand tightly and opened the door.
As the door opened, Su Ping could clearly feel a gaze falling on her.
It was that feeling of spying on everything again, only this time there was something different in my gaze compared to last time.
Su Ping followed the gaze and saw a man with long hair half-tied up sitting on the sofa.
Nearly twenty years have passed, and the man's face gradually overlaps with the one Lu Zhiyan encountered, leaving Su Ping momentarily dazed.
The man was certain this was the second time he had seen Su Ping, but those eyes felt so familiar, as if the two of them had a connection from long ago.
But no matter how hard he tried to recall, he couldn't remember where he had seen Su Ping before.
Seeing that the two were silently staring at each other, making him seem like an outsider, Tu Hengchuan pulled Su Ping behind him and stepped forward to block her way.
Su Ping was stunned for a moment, looking at him as he held her hand tightly to assert his dominance, and felt both amused and exasperated.
He was the one who called the master for help, so what does this mean?
"Pingping, sit down for a while, I'll go get you a glass of warm water."
Tu Hengchuan hadn't forgotten that her fingers were cold. After leading Su Ping to sit down diagonally opposite the man, he turned around and went to the other side to get her some water.
As soon as Tu Hengchuan turned around, Su Ping felt the man's gaze on her become even more unrestrained, as if he wanted to see right through her.
"I heard from Hengchuan that you've been having dreams every night lately."
After saying this, the man observed the reaction on Su Ping's face.
As he watched her expression gradually become more uneasy, he tapped his fingers absently on the table in front of him.
Su Ping nodded with a somewhat unpleasant expression and said, "Yes, I can feel her. She wants to take my body away."
Watching her speak while simultaneously clutching her collar, even the Calabash Brothers were stunned by her acting skills.
Who can tell if she's lying or telling the truth now?
After hearing her words, the man narrowed his eyes slightly, and out of the corner of his eye, he saw that Tu Hengchuan had already filled the water container and was walking over. He then said...
"Don't be afraid, I will help you."
Su Ping then asked, "Really? How can you help me?"
The man still felt something was off about the matter, but the expression on her face certainly didn't seem like she was lying.
So he said, "I want to have a few words with her, and I need your help."
When Tu Hengchuan heard these words, he stopped in his tracks and couldn't help but feel overjoyed.
Does this mean he'll be able to see the entire screen in a moment?
Su Ping paused for two seconds, looking at the man with some hesitation: "I dare not. I'm afraid that if she takes over this body, I won't be able to get it back."
Tu Hengchuan's heart tightened, and the fingertips gripping the cup looked slightly white from the force.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here. Drink some hot water first."
Tu Hengchuan sat down next to Su Ping and handed her the cup he was holding.
Su Ping took the sip, her eyelashes drooping as she couldn't help but mentally complain.
If she didn't know Tu Hengchuan's true colors, she would really be fooled by him.
Perhaps because she had encountered a bug in the world of the book, Su Ping was also curious whether this master would discover something extraordinary.
After all, she now has two identities, and they are two completely different people in terms of appearance and name.
It would be fun if we could actually summon another person.
After Su Ping agreed, the man resumed the steps from the previous one.
This time, however, when Tu Hengchuan tried to approach Su Ping, the man gave him a warning glare, which frightened Tu Hengchuan so much that he immediately stopped moving.
Having learned from her previous experience, Su Ping cooperated with the man's steps quite well until her palm was cut open again, at which point she felt pain.
She instinctively tried to pull back, but the man held her wrist tightly.
As blood dripped from her palm into the bowl, Su Ping's eyelids grew heavier and heavier, gradually fading into darkness.
When she opened her eyes again, she found herself in a void, a familiar feeling as if she had returned to the time when her soul was still wandering aimlessly.
It's over. It seems he really did manage to recall the real Su Ping.
[Huluwa, are you there?]
Su Ping tentatively called out to the surroundings, but heard no echo.
This is really bad. Will she be stuck here forever and unable to get out?
[Host, I'm here.]
After a burst of electronic music, the voice of the Calabash Brothers rang out.
The voice sounded even more emotionless, like a bunch of machines that had been sent back to the factory for repairs.
Are you alright?
Su Ping asked with some concern, "This system can't have any problems; I don't want to be trapped here forever."
Fortunately, the Calabash Brothers' voices gradually returned to normal.
[I'm fine, host, but the situation seems a bit complicated now.]
As soon as Calabash Brothers finished speaking, something resembling an electronic display screen appeared in front of Su Ping.
The above is exactly what happened at Tu Hengchuan's house. Because it's a God's-eye view, Su Ping can see the expressions on everyone's faces.
Upon seeing Su Ping faint, Tu Hengchuan swiftly pulled her into his arms.
"Master, why did she suddenly faint?"
Tu Hengchuan gently lifted Su Ping's head, making her more comfortable leaning on his shoulder.
Before the man could say anything, Su Ping, who had been keeping her eyes closed, suddenly opened them.
Seeing the wary look in her eyes as she surveyed her surroundings on the electronic screen, Su Ping knew that the original owner of this body had definitely been summoned back.
[Huluwa, didn't you promise me?]
Su Ping considered many possibilities, but the one she never imagined was that the real Su Ping would be summoned back.
The Calabash Brothers didn't know how to answer either; this fictional world seemed to be gradually going out of control and the plot was no longer following.
Tu Hengchuan looked at Su Ping, whose eyes seemed completely unfamiliar to him, pushed her off his shoulder, and frowned as he asked, "Who are you?"
The next second, the woman in front of him retorted with an annoyed look: "I was just about to ask who you are, and what you want with me here!"
