Chapter 403 I Want to Die But I Can’t

Lu Yunhun felt cold all over.

She had an impression of Huang Li because she was a bit of a flatterer.

There was a girl in the dormitory whose family was not well off, but she was very hardworking and studied seriously every day.

Huang Li didn't know what was wrong with her, but she joined forces with the other three people in the dormitory to squeeze out that girl, and occasionally even tried to trick her.

At that time, Lu Yun couldn't stand it and was unwilling to associate with them, so she said a few words to speak up for them.

She dressed very modestly at school, and Huang Li couldn't tell, nor did she know her family situation.

As soon as she saw that she was speaking up for the girl who was being excluded, she was excluded as well.

Later, Huang Li went to Lu's subsidiary to submit her resume and happened to run into her going downstairs with several veterans of the company. She didn't know how they found out, but they finally found out that she was from the Lu family.

The attitude towards her has changed 180 degrees.

Huang Li probably wanted her to pass on a message to the company.

After all, whether the other party's resume is approved or not is just a matter of her words.

But Huang Li was obviously overthinking it.

She would never ask about such a small matter.

Later, Huang Li's resume was not accepted, and the company hired the girl who was excluded at the beginning.

Huang Li was so angry at her because of this that she felt that she was the one who was causing the trouble.

They said everywhere that she abused her power for personal gain and relied on her status as a young lady to bully others.

Lu Yun only said one sentence at that time.

"While you were focusing on your clothes and taking pride in being able to hang out with men, she was busy improving herself, reading books, and taking various exams."

"While you were holding your phone and texting different boys asking them to buy you a bag, she had already used the information gap to make her first pot of gold."

"What's your resume like? What's her resume like? Why do you think the subsidiary of Lu's Group would give up the pearl and choose a fake like you?"

This sentence made Huang Li blush. She pointed at her nose and kept saying "you you you" for a long time, but she couldn't utter a word to refute it.

Finally, the girl who was squeezed out at the beginning passed by and looked at Huang Li with calm eyes.

"Instead of spreading rumors here, you should focus on improving yourself."

"I can find a suitable job wherever I go, but you are different."

Just like Huang Li said at the beginning, 'I just wave my finger and countless men rush to spend money on me. It's different for a girl like you who looks ordinary and comes from the countryside.'

Now it seems that it is indeed different.

The rural girl who was looked down upon by Huang Li has become a senior executive of Lu Group.

Huang Li, however, is still as stubborn as ever.

When Lu Yun found out that Lin Xian had a mistress, her first reaction was disgust.

However, after learning that the mistress was Huang Li and remembering what Huang Li had done before, Lu Yun's reaction was only indifference.

After all these years, Lin Xian's vision is still as poor as ever.

His eye for people is as hard to judge as his eye for investing.

"Master Huo, could you please help me solve the problem of the Yin card she asked for, please."

Lu Yun transferred one million to Huo Ning in the background, "This is the deposit."

Huo Ning took a sip of the hot cocoa in her hand.

Lu Yun is really generous.

"Okay, but you should check it first, so that I don't wrongly accuse your husband."

"By the way, Lu Wanyu wanted to kill you because she wanted to take over the Lu Group. That yellow-haired guy was just a tool she used to provoke you."

Lu Wanyu originally thought that if she pretended to be love-minded, Lu Yun would throw her into the company.

Keep her busy and have no time for love.

Who knew that Lu Yun would not follow her ideas at all.

Later, she deliberately said in front of the yellow-haired man that as long as Lu Yun died, everything in the Lu family would belong to her.

She was thinking of killing someone by borrowing a knife.

But she didn't expect that the yellow-haired guy just wanted to cheat a rich girl like her out of her money.

He would never dare to do anything illegal like murder.

Lu Wanyu was so angry that she had to do it herself.

Lu Yun had a complicated expression and her eyes were full of disappointment.

Lu Wanyu was her only child, and she originally wanted to raise her into a successful person.

But Lu Wanyu is just not that kind of person.

She lowered her eyes and said, "Master Huo, you may have to sell me a few talismans to keep me from being tortured by illusions recently. Otherwise, I am afraid that I will once again be unable to distinguish between dreams and reality."

She needs to investigate Lin Xian and Lu Wanyu carefully.

It’s not that she doesn’t trust Huo Ning.

Instead, she wanted to give herself peace of mind and at the same time let those who betrayed her die with a clear conscience.

Huo Ning nodded, "Send me the address backstage, and I'll have someone send the calming talisman to your home later."

Lu Yun said thank you softly.

Let’s put this room aside for now.

…

Paper Town.

The four girls huddled in the hotel room, each a little devastated.

Pei Jiaojiao squatted on the ground, tears falling down her face.

Her face was filled with despair, and her thin body could not stop shaking. "Didn't Master Huo say that if we die here, we can return to the real world?"

"But why can't I die here?!"

She has tried to commit suicide in many ways.

She cut her wrists, jumped off a building, or lay in the middle of the street waiting for a truck to run over her.

But it's no use!

She also tried to jump into the river, but when she looked at the map in the hotel, she found that there was no water source within a hundred miles!

"How can I die? I can't stand it. I don't want to live here!"

Everything here is eerie and spooky.

Everyone looked at them strangely.

If she stays any longer, she'll go crazy!

Li Juan scratched her hair irritably and threw a pack of tissues to Pei Jiaojiao.

"Okay, stop crying. There's no point in crying. Hurry and wipe your tears."

"Instead of crying, why not think about how to get out of this damn place?"

Pei Jiaojiao opened her mouth and was about to say something when Li Juan urged her, "Hurry up and dry your tears. Are you stupid? Have you forgotten where you are?"

Li Juan lowered her voice, "Don't forget what Master Huo said before."

Pei Jiaojiao's tears were instantly held back.

Yes, everything in this town is made of paper.

Paper figures are afraid of water.

So there is no water source here, and the paper man will not shed tears.

If someone discovered that she was crying, it would mean that her human identity might be exposed.

Although I don't know what consequences will be caused by the exposure of my identity.

But Pei Jiaojiao subconsciously felt that the price must be very heavy.

Suddenly she didn't care about anything else and quickly got up from the ground.

Pei Jiaojiao wiped her tears vigorously with a tissue, but her voice was still choked with sobs, "But what should we do? We can't stay in this horrible place for the rest of our lives!"

The thought of being around a group of paper figures is creepy.

Li Juan grabbed her hair which was about to explode, "There must be some other way of suicide that we haven't discovered yet."

"It's dark now, it's hard to go out. Let's go see if there's any poison to sell tomorrow morning."

Or it could be medicines that are fine when taken alone, but will cause serious problems when taken together with other medicines.

At first they thought it was simple, thinking that death was probably the simplest thing in the world.

I just realized that in such a weird world, death is a luxury.

Xiao Qing sat next to Lin Man, her brows almost twisted into a knot.

She scribbled and revised on the notebook, and when she finished writing, she closed the notebook. "I think I know why we can't die."

Lin Man raised her head.

The other two people also looked towards her.

Xiao Qing had a calm expression as he carefully considered every detail he had sensed since coming to this world.

"Master Huo said before that this is a paper town, and all the residents of the town are made of paper."

"Is it possible that the roads, cars, tall buildings, and even the towering trees we see are actually made of paper?"

Because they are made of paper, they can't die no matter what.

They are human beings, and they exist in the form of souls, so jumping off a building, cutting their wrists, or letting a truck run over them will be of no use.

"If I'm not mistaken, in this place where everything is made of paper, we can lie on the railway tracks tomorrow and nothing will happen to us."

Xiao Qing's analysis caused the remaining three people to fall silent.

Li Juan held her schoolbag and couldn't help asking, "But it rains a lot in this town. If the houses and roads are made of paper, how did they survive for so long?"

Xiao Qing was stunned.

At this time, Lin Man picked up the newspaper on the hotel coffee table.

"If that's really what Xiaoqing said, then everything seems to make sense."
