A dark and windy night.
Most of the nearby shops were closed, but the streetlights were still as bright as ever, casting a faint glow on Xi.
The wind chimes inside the room rang hurriedly. A figure frantically moved something. The large room was so dark that nothing could be seen except for rustling sounds.
*Snap*, Xi Xinxin turned on the light.
The room lit up instantly. There were four small boxes next to her: two boxes of white rabbits and two boxes of white mice.
They moved to the basement in pairs and started building a fence in the middle of the night. By the time everything was almost finished, it was already getting light outside.
Xi Xinxin cut up a radish and fed it to the rabbit: "Eat your fill so you can get going."
Then an injection of liquid was given into the rabbit's body.
"I'll come see you tomorrow. If you're free, I'll give you some extra carrots."
The same substance was injected into the mice.
When Xi Xinxin was studying medicine, she was also reluctant to part with her animal. Her teacher asked everyone to choose an animal to raise. She raised her little white rabbit until it was plump and healthy, but later she was required to dissect it.
She cried for a long time back then.
On the path of human progress, countless sacrifices have been made to achieve the happiness and stability we enjoy today. Xi Xinxin had no choice; she also wanted to save more people, and thus chose to become one of the experimental subjects accepted by everyone.
"Sigh," Xi Xinxin thought silently. If the experimental subject were cockroaches or mosquitoes, she would kill them like crazy!
After staying up all night for the first time in a long time, Xi Xinxin went straight back to the store. The first person to arrive was Yang Li. She cherished this hard-won job. Gu Bei told her that Yang Li was always the first to arrive.
"Sister Li, you don't have to be so stressed. When He Fang comes later, you can try the small cakes she made. Don't be anxious when you have nothing to do, just rest."
Yang Li nodded and thanked her.
Another person came in, and Xi Xinxin was still wondering who it was so early when she saw a familiar face. It was Li Lili!
Li Lili probably didn't expect Xi Xinxin to say so early: "Hey, give me a good drink!"
"Let me see what Mrs. Li's phone number is."
"No, no, no!" Li Lili quickly stopped Xi Xinxin: "I came here today to ask you for help."
Xi Xinxin raised an eyebrow: "What, not acting like a chuunibyou anymore?"
Lili blushed a little at what was said: "You know, we were all so passionate in high school, and my parents still tease me about it to this day."
"Speak, what is it?"
Li Lili's current school is actually not far from Xi Xinxin's school; it's right next door. One day, when he went out to buy some snacks, he saw a girl crying her eyes out.
He kindly handed me a tissue.
From that time on, he felt like he was being followed wherever he went. He told his parents, but they thought he was just talking nonsense again and ignored him.
He was also very dissatisfied, so he immediately made an appointment with a few of his buddies to find that person together.
They quickly caught the person, and Lili immediately recognized her as the girl who had given him the tissues earlier.
He asked why she kept following him, and the girl said she liked him. Then she openly followed him. He really couldn't stand it anymore; how could he get rid of her?
Xi Xinxin's eyes were strange: "Do you know the name of this girl you're talking about?"
"Ah, I already asked, her name is Jin Shu."
Xi Xinxin slapped her forehead. This was the girl who had previously been unhygienic, Zhang Jianan's girlfriend, but later became attached to her and got scolded by her!
"They changed people so quickly!" Xi Xinxin recounted the whole story to Li Lili. Li Lili's expression became even more complicated after listening, revealing a hint of anxiety: "What should I do? You have to help me! If this continues, I won't be able to eat or drink anything."
Xi Xinxin glanced at the water she had just poured out; it was already empty.
"Isn't school about to start? Will you stop bothering me once school starts?"
Lili looked pained: "She said she felt sorry for herself, was isolated in the dormitory, and couldn't keep up with her grades, so she wanted to transfer schools."
Xi Xinxin was still twirling her pen: "What if we made her target a person who doesn't exist at all?"
"Then where do we find this non-existent person?" Li Lili asked, puzzled.
"Come closer."
After leaving the store, Lili went to find his friends. He had arranged to watch a game of billiards with some of his friends today.
Sure enough, not long after they arrived, that familiar gaze returned. Li Lili was genuinely curious about where Jin Shu had gotten his location while shopping. He had asked his friends, and they all insisted that they couldn't have leaked it. Was this some kind of special skill?
He put down the pole and found Jin Shu next to him: "Shall we talk?"
Jin Shu blushed slightly, extremely shy: "So you've finally agreed to be with me?"
Lili put on a disgusted expression: "I've found out everything. You're not isolated at all. What's the point of dressing up so nicely when your dorm is so dirty and messy! Besides, you even instigated your boyfriend to target other people!"
"That's just a rumor, you know. People who target me are always spreading rumors," Jin Shu made up an excuse on the spot. If Li Lili didn't know Xi Xinxin's character, he might have actually believed it.
Seeing that Jin Shu was so unyielding, Li Lili really lost his patience. He had thought he would save face for the girl, but she herself didn't care about saving face. He said loudly, "I've never seen anyone as difficult as you! Don't you have any shame! I've already said I don't like you."
Lively scenes are what people love to watch, and emotionally charged scenes are especially popular! Many people stopped playing billiards to look over.
Jin Shu wasn't annoyed, and even tried to take Li Lili's arm, but missed: "So you'll just say yes~"
A man wearing a mask approached Lilili. He was slightly taller than Lilili and appeared to be well-trained. Lilili looked like a weakling next to him.
The man said to Jin Shu, "Girls shouldn't treat themselves like this. He doesn't cherish you, but I do. Come on, I'll take you to get some milk tea."
That voice was so sweet it made Jin Shu's bones go weak.
Li Lili clearly heard Jin Shu swallow hard, and sure enough, Jin Shu immediately followed the man.
The man was impeccably groomed. Jin Shu didn't need to get close to see; his eyelashes were long and curled, and his eyes were large and deep-set. Even though he was wearing a mask, he was undoubtedly handsome.
"Hello, my name is... Chu Quanyi."
Jin Shu also gave her name.
"I just overheard your conversation with that guy. I think you're a really good girl; you're so strong despite so many people targeting you."
Upon hearing this, Jin Shu immediately feigned weakness: "Yes, that's why I'm thinking of transferring schools recently."
The man seemed very surprised: "Would you like to come to my school? My school is nearby too."
"So you're a college student too? Of course! Can I come find you directly?" Jin Shu felt she had definitely met a good man; he looked like he had eight-pack abs.
The man bought Jin Shu a cup of milk tea, then said he had to leave early due to an emergency, and told Jin Shu to definitely come to the school to see him. Jin Shu readily agreed.
The man arrived at Xi's third floor, took off his mask and wig: "System, remove the male voice, male physique."
(Cancellation complete)
Xi Xinxin took a shower while she was at it; this was an interesting feature she had recently discovered. She could transform into whatever she wanted for a limited time. Wow, this space is quite fun.
Furthermore, Chu Quanyi would never get in; that school doesn't have any male students like that. If Jin Shu were rational, she wouldn't have done this. Xi Xinxin has inquired about that school; most students there have good grades. However, the school rules are extremely strict.
She did hope that Jin Shu could change herself a little.
Xi Xinxin sent Li Lili a message: "Keep it simple, remember to reimburse me for my milk tea."
Soon, a large batch of milk tea was delivered to the store.
After distributing the milk tea to the employees, there were still quite a few left. The right side of the first floor was the book section, where many people were reading. Xi Xinxin then distributed the milk tea as well.
Because of this incident, Li Lili felt that he had become a little more familiar with Xi Xinxin, and asked Xi Xinxin to ask him for help in the future.
Yu Shuwen's revised design drawings have also been sent over. Now all we have to do is wait for the new store to be ready, and everything will be perfect.
Before the start of the school term, Xi Xinxin was busy doing experiments and mixing perfumes.
Since the show aired, Xi Xinxin has maintained high popularity. However, she is not an insider, and the entertainment industry is constantly changing. People may recognize her on the street, but they are not overly enthusiastic.
In contrast, Xu Chacha and Bai Tianrao seem to have collaborated, as Bai Tianrao sang the theme song for the TV series Xu Chacha filmed. And the composer was Guan Jing, which is quite a coincidence.
However, some people began to question whether Xu Chacha's grades would drop, so Mo Chen directly signed her up for a quiz show where she had to solve problems within a set time. This greatly reduced the amount of discussion.
Yu Shuwen and Jinian Ya went back abroad for further studies.
When school started, everyone was still a bit disoriented from the holidays. The counselor looked at the attendance list and said, "Hey, we're getting a new student in our class. Class monitor, please write this down and also show her where her dorm is."
The counselor glanced outside the classroom again and then turned back: "Oh, it seems she's here."
A girl with long, flowing hair walked in. She wore gold-rimmed glasses on her delicate face, and a small gold chain on her left side accentuated her beautiful features. She wore a trench coat over a dress. Her heels were also quite high, but her overall proportions looked very harmonious.
However, she seems to be wearing hearing aids in both her left and right ears? They are quite stylish.
Seeing that the class had quieted down a bit, the counselor continued, "This child may have some hearing problems, please take care of him."
Sasha felt it was a pity that such a beautiful girl had hearing problems. She turned around, intending to speak to Xi Xinxin, but found that Xi Xinxin had buried her head on the table.
First! Complete! Art!
She can come in by herself, can't she?!
Chu Quanyi quickly located Xi Xinxin's location and sat down next to Sasha: "Hello, my name is Chu Quanyi."
Chu Quanyi's dormitory was the same place Jin Shu used to live in. After Jin Shu quickly transferred schools, the dormitory became clean and tidy. Now she lives alone, and Chu Quanyi is quite satisfied with it.
Xi Xinxin closed the dormitory door and immediately asked, "Can't you come in now?"
Chu Quanyi tapped his glasses and so-called hearing aid: "See? I set these things up before I came in."
"Then why didn't you set it up correctly from the beginning?"
"It was unstable, so I had to operate it myself outside. Now that it's almost stable, I'll come in and check on you."
"Nothing else?" Xi Xinxin didn't believe that excuse; Chu Quanyi was always a meticulous person.
“Of course, I only recently discovered that this space has a living rhythm, and it might even be connected to real life.” Chu Quanyi tapped her hearing aid again: “But I can’t find it outside. So I came in to look for it.”
What is the ultimate goal of this project?
"There is no ultimate goal; as long as you succeed, you can apply it to any industry."
"Have you ever heard of characters in novels awakening? I think some people around you have already started to awaken. Don't you want them to come and live with you in the real world?"
"This world is like their family, do you think that's possible?"
"Who knows?" Chu Quanyi yawned; she hadn't had a proper night's sleep in a long time. "Your next task is to come with me to find out which body is harboring the life form that has gradually formed."
Xi Xinxin didn't want to understand this project anymore. She just wanted to see the people around her grow up. Whether they had feelings for each other or not, Xi Xinxin didn't know.
Perhaps she herself became pregnant, and like raising a child, she always had to see an ending.
Live in the moment.
Back in her dorm, Xi Dai asked, "Do you know that Chu Quanyi?"
"Ah, my junior high classmate, I didn't expect him to transfer here."
Xi Dai gave an "oh" and then seemed to be deep in thought.
During class, Xi Xinxin and three others sat together, while Chu Quanyi sat next to them. Midway through the class, they overheard the students behind them discussing something.
"Hey, did you hear? Jin Shu, who caused trouble before, transferred schools."
"I know, so what?"
"It seems like the new school she transferred to has been looking for some kind of guy, but that school is super strict. When they saw that she kept looking and wouldn't listen, they called her parents directly."
"Huh? Why is she doing this again?"
"She's turning the school upside down. There are even people asking about her confession wall over there. The person she's dating is called Chu Quanyi."
Hearing this, Xi Xinxin already felt a terrifying gaze upon her.
"Oh, I remember there's another one."
"What?"
“I attended a divorce hearing before, and now that person has been released, they are looking for someone else, also named Chu Quanyi.”
"Could it be the same person?"
Xi Xinxin simply buried her head on the table and remained silent.
Xi Dai and the others also heard what Xi Xinxin said next. They had heard Xi Xinxin mention both of these incidents before, but they didn't expect that the name Xi Xinxin gave was coincidentally that of the student who transferred in today.
They must have a good relationship.
Mei Qing couldn't help but lean over and ask Chu Quanyi, "Are you and Xinxin good friends?"
"Yes, we were elementary school classmates!"
Xi Dai: "?"
Xi Xinxin slapped her forehead. Oh no, she forgot to rehearse their statements.
