Xia Wan suddenly woke up with a start.
My whole body was soaking wet, as if I had just crawled out of a river, and my heart was pounding in my chest.
In a daze, I could almost feel the lingering warmth of Cui Ziqi's body on my wrist.
She felt cold all over, and her back was chilled.
Morning light streamed through the glass windows into the living room, covering her with a layer of frost.
How can it be so real?
It felt so real, as if he had crawled out of the book to chase after her.
Xia Wan shook her head, went to the bathroom to wash up, and calmed down.
Today's main tasks are to process my resignation and buy some gifts for my parents in the city.
The high-speed train officially started at 10 p.m.
A busy day allowed Xia Wan to temporarily put Cui Ziqi out of her mind.
The high-speed train arrived at the station at 11 p.m.
Outside the sloppy train station, Xia's father, wearing a thick coat, waved to Xia Wan as she came out with her suitcase.
"Wanwan! Over here!"
Xia Wan dragged her suitcase and ran quickly to her father's side.
"dad."
"I'm going home. I'm waiting for you to come home for dinner."
Xia's father took Xia Wan's suitcase and put it in the trunk of the Volkswagen.
Xia Wan's nose tingled with sadness. "Didn't I tell you not to wait for me? It's so late for dinner, it's all been a midnight snack."
"Then let's have it as a midnight snack."
The father and daughter got into the car, and Xia's father handed Xia Wan a thermos cup that was on the center console.
"Your mom made rock sugar bird's nest, it's still hot, I drank it."
Xia Wan whimpered twice and said in a spoiled tone, "Mom and Dad, you are so good to me."
Seeing Xia Wan obediently drinking the bird's nest soup, Xia's father smiled and turned the car around to go home.
When Xia's mother received Xia's father's call, she started heating up the dishes. By the time the father and daughter arrived home, the last dish was just being served.
"Wanwan is back."
Xia's mother was very happy and went forward to pull Xia Wan into the house, ignoring Xia's father at all.
"Why are your hands so cold? Did your dad not turn on the air conditioning in his car? I really don't know why he's trying to save this little bit of money."
Mr. Xia entered the room carrying a suitcase and felt aggrieved upon hearing Mrs. Xia's words.
"I turned on the air conditioner!"
"That means you didn't set the temperature correctly."
Mr. Xia was used to Mrs. Xia's behavior of forgetting her husband after having a daughter, and dared not say anything more. He silently put his daughter's suitcase away.
Xia Wan finally felt a complete sense of belonging when she returned home.
Years of hard work have led to this moment of family reunion.
After dinner, Xia's mother talked with Xia Wan for a while before going to bed.
Xia Wan lay in bed, feeling empty again.
The moon is high in the sky.
Xia Wan looked at the moonlight streaming in through the window, her eyelids grew heavy, and she gradually fell asleep.
She sank into thick darkness in her sleep, a burning heat wrapped around her waist, and the familiar low voice of a man in her ear.
"Wanwan, why did you run away?"
"Wanwan, you lied to me again. Do you have to make me hate you before you're satisfied?"
"Wanwan, I will not let you get away with this."
"Wanwan..."
Xia Wan felt suffocated, her whole body felt sticky and heavy, and she tried to open her eyelids, but she couldn't.
A familiar electronic sound slowly approached from the end of the darkness.
[Congratulations, host, on completing your mission to rescue the yandere male supporting character...]
What mission?
What's the solution to rescuing a yandere male supporting character?
Xia Wan was terrified and helpless, and was being entangled more and more tightly, making it impossible for her to think.
When she woke up again, her hair was almost completely soaked with sweat.
Before the sun had even risen, her heart was pounding in her chest.
She hurriedly went to the bathroom and took a cold shower. When she came out, she was much calmer.
Memories flooded her mind like willow catkins, and she gradually recalled the time she saved Cui Ziqi in the book.
It was a system she accidentally came into contact with when she was a child.
When she was little, she wanted to buy a Barbie doll, but she didn't have the money.
The system tricked her into thinking that she could get a Barbie doll and lots and lots of money by completing a task.
Following the system's instructions, she transmigrated into the book and took Xia Zhizhi's place to save little Cui Ziqi.
The system required her to return to the book at any time to fix the bugs and ensure that Cui Ziqi lived well in the book's world.
She was confused at the time and just nodded.
When they returned to the real world, something had happened.
She seemed to have been hit by something, and after returning, she remembered nothing.
But her beloved Barbie dolls were already neatly placed in the bedroom.
Later, she grew up and transmigrated into the book, becoming a female supporting character with the same name, and inexplicably became bound to another system and did another task.
She finally found out where the extra ten million in her bank account came from.
It was a reward from a task she received from a system she encountered when she was a child, which means that Cui Ziqi is alive and well in the book!
She breathed a sigh of relief.
He sat down on the sofa in the living room.
Regardless, as long as she knew he was safe and sound in that world, she felt at ease.
My parents are still asleep.
She had nothing to do, so she decided to take out the trash and then make breakfast.
In the old-style residential building, there is a garbage chute in the stairwell on each floor.
The light bulb on the stairwell where Xia Wan lived was broken, and in the dim light, she threw out the trash and was about to go back.
Suddenly, someone appeared out of nowhere and grabbed my wrist.
She was startled and was about to scream when a strong arm wrapped around her waist. Before she could react, she was pushed against the wall.
A kiss, swift and decisive, descended.
She stared wide-eyed and struggled incessantly.
Did I run into a rapist lying in wait first thing in the morning?
"Wanwan..."
The familiar voice reached her ears, and Xia Wan stopped kicking his crotch. Incredulously, she looked at the man's blurry outline in the dim light.
The familiar, clear, and rugged silhouette; light from the stairwell window climbed up the steps, illuminating the man's upright figure; a crisp fragrance mixed with a faint smell of blood lingered around the nose.
