Chapter 143 The Paper "Lover" is a Little Busy (Part 3)
Strangely, An Nannan... no longer felt that feeling of despair.
The man who stormed out from next door, banging on the door, looked like a grumpy old man. He had bronze skin, wore a t-shirt, and his muscular physique was clearly visible; he looked like someone you didn't want to mess with.
This person is An Nannan's neighbor, and his name is Miao Ling.
Miao Ling had a damp towel draped over his shoulder, and his bangs were soaked with sweat. He yelled menacingly at Yang Muyan:
"Are you knocking on a ghost? Or knocking on a soul?!"
Although Si Yisi cannot directly help An Nannan for the time being, he can completely rely on external forces, and Miao Ling is the external force he borrowed.
Yang Muyan's knocking wasn't loud, but it was almost deafening to Miao Ling! The rhythmic, almost obsessive knocking sounded like a deadly clapper to Miao Ling.
Not to mention that Yang Muyan then caused such a "big" commotion.
How could Miao Ling, who always had a bit of a temper, tolerate this? When his patience reached its limit, he naturally went along with Si Yisi's wishes and stirred things up!
Otherwise, who knows what Yang Muyan might do to An Nannan?
In the memories transmitted by Xiao Xigua, An Nannan was also forcibly broken into by Yang Muyan in the same way. In the end, she resisted too much and hit her head, thus avoiding this crisis from Yang Muyan!
In that memory, An Nannan's head injury was far from minor; it almost cost her half her life. If her roommate and best friend hadn't arrived in time, she would have gone into shock from excessive bleeding!
Yang Muyan was afraid of causing someone's death, which is why he hurriedly abandoned the injured An Nannan and ran away.
In fact, ordinary people would never care about what they consider An Nannan and Yang Muyan's family affairs. Yang Muyan took advantage of this and made a good plan.
But did Si Yisi not consider this point?
He would never hastily choose someone to help him; Miao Ling was carefully selected by Si Yisi.
Although Miao Ling had a volatile temper, he was a very upright person and loved to stand up for the weak. At this moment, he stared wide-eyed at Yang Muyan, who was about to force his way into An Nannan's home, and he immediately exploded.
Miao Ling, this burly deity, placed himself in front of Yang Muyan, and the black shadow directly enveloped Yang Muyan.
"What are you doing! Huh?" Miao Ling's eyes widened in anger. "Are you bullying my neighbor?"
“If this were abroad, I could have killed you on the spot for breaking and entering!” Miao Ling clenched his fist.
"This is... my girlfriend, we had a fight." Yang Muyan gave the same excuse again.
But Miao Ling glared at him fiercely: "Is this how you treat your girlfriend? Don't think I'm blind and don't know you're forcing her. Why do you insist on squeezing into someone else's house!"
After saying that, he grabbed Yang Muyan's hand with both of his large hands and forcibly pulled Yang Muyan's hand off the doorknob.
"Girl, do you think this guy is your boyfriend?"
An Nannan, her eyes brimming with tears, cried through a crack in the door, "No! He's here to harass my ex-boyfriend!!"
"Did you hear that!" Miao Ling cracked his knuckles as he moved his arms. "You shameless bastard, get out of here!"
Miao Ling released his arm and then slapped Yang Muyan, making the small Yang Muyan stagger back several steps!
Without hesitation, he punched Yang Muyan in the face again, causing Yang Muyan's nose to bleed profusely!
Si Yisi withdrew her hand, and the gray-black paper figure made a gesture of retracting its hand.
He not only used Miao Ling to inflict more harm on Yang Muyan, but also secretly did other things to her.
It's true that the little paper doll can't appear directly in front of people, but just like this dating app is a means for him to make a living, Si Yi can find another place to rely on if he wants to go out!
Si Yisi naturally chose Yang Muyan as an anchor point, a coordinate!
It's easy to manipulate the situation so that ordinary people aren't aware of your existence—as long as Yang Muyan firmly believes that Si Yisi is an illusion, then it's not against the rules!
Si Yisi undoubtedly exploited a loophole in this small world, but he is not the only one, nor will he be the last.
It's just that many people whose thinking is limited to a certain point can't change their perspective.
Yang Muyan felt a chill on his body, followed by a sharp pain in his nasal cavity that made him bend over!
Tick-tock, tick-tock.
Blood seeped from between his fingers, ruining his once decent-looking face and making him look like a clown!
"Get lost!" Miao Lingchong raised his hand to threaten Yang Muyan. Yang Muyan covered his nose and got up from the ground, his gentle demeanor shattered. He mouthed something fiercely to An Nannan.
Wait for me.
An Nannan trembled, and Si Yisi immediately appeared on her phone again to calm her down.
"See, it's alright now. (laughs) I'll protect you."
An Nannan didn't know why, but upon hearing that reassuring voice, the tears she had just stopped falling started flowing again.
"Thank you so much for your help. I really don't know how to thank you enough." She thanked Miao Ling repeatedly, and for some reason, she suddenly wanted to look at the little paper figure on the screen again.
“Sigh—” Miao Ling sniffed, “It was nothing. If that man hadn’t been banging on the door so loudly, I wouldn’t have noticed.”
crackling sounds...
Upon hearing this, An Nannan paused for a moment... Was Yang Muyan knocking very loudly?
But this sudden question didn't become the focus of their conversation. Miao Ling leaned over and whispered to An Nannan, "What...game is this?"
“A virtual paper lover game.” An Nannan answered timidly. The shadow left by Yang Muyan made her stick to the door crack and talk to Miao Ling, a neighbor she didn’t know very well.
Taking advantage of the momentum, Si Yisi, having drawn the two's attention to this point, proactively suggested a method—
"Little Pumpkin, haven't you thought about how to deal with your ex-boyfriend?"
The little paper doll, completely black, stared at An Nannan, its -100 mood value above its head unusually conspicuous.
An Nannan didn't know why... but her gaze became focused on Si Yisi's little paper doll, and she didn't know why she listened to what was said in its entirety.
She found it very subtle.
The experience of playing this paper doll lover game is really great... Even though my little lover is a rough little paper doll and his voice isn't very pleasant, there's still an invisible sense of peace that lingers in my heart.
It's like your "little lover" has always been watching over you and secretly helping you.
Like the fairy godmother who asks for nothing in return.
But how could that be? The person who helped her was Miao Ling right in front of her... An Nannan couldn't understand why she had such a misconception.
After much thought, she could only come to one conclusion—Si Yisi's little paper doll was behaving almost like a real person. This dating app was really well-made, as it could even connect with reality.
An Nannan couldn't help but clutch her phone tightly, keeping her head down and not daring to look up at the warm light that flashed in Miao Ling's eyes.
She... really likes this game.
Then, An Nannan heard Si Yisi suggest, "Little Pumpkin, if you want to get rid of your boyfriend, why don't you try a method that doesn't rely on external forces?"
“Your neighbor is a fitness instructor, and you can go to his gym to work out.”
Si Yisi naturally offered a reasonable suggestion.
Yes, that's Si Yisi's second consideration.
He used this incident to get An Nannan and Miao Lingxian to get to know each other, which would naturally lead to the topic of working out at the gym.
The protection of the paper doll is ultimately not long-lasting; the most crucial factor is still An Nannan's own efforts!
Her roommate was right; finding a new boyfriend was indeed the quickest way to stop Yang Muyan. However, it was also a relatively low-level method; it couldn't fundamentally eliminate the potential threat Yang Muyan posed!
Only when An Nannan becomes independent and self-reliant can she completely get rid of Yang Muyan!
Si Yisi had no doubt about An Nannan's potential; she was such a ruthless person!
It's more like a real person now, as if you're talking to a real person through a screen.
An Nannan subconsciously looked at Miao Ling, who was stunned for a moment and scratched his head. Could this little paper doll be a real person?
A person like the Sweeping Monk.
“Yes, I am indeed a fitness coach. What this little paper doll said makes a lot of sense.” However, Miao Ling wasn’t the type to insist on getting to the bottom of things. He agreed with Si Yisi’s method and looked at An Nannan seriously.
"Do you want to give it a try?" Miao Ling asked. "Anyway, it's getting hot and not many students are willing to come..."
"……good."
An Nannan clenched her fists, and a fire seemed to burst forth in her eyes, which were slightly red and swollen from crying.
She seems to have been using the wrong approach all along. Relying on others is destined to prevent you from getting to the root of the problem. Only by taking control of your own power can you decide your own life!
Si Yisi watched An Nannan through a screen, having achieved his goal.
Miao Ling is unlikely to discover the clue about Si Yisi's existence; he is not the type to pry.
And what about An Nannan's side? Si Yisi wasn't surprised that she would discover some strange things, after all, An Nannan was too close to her.
However—this is the little paper doll's wish.
The little paper doll's crooked mouth turned up slightly, its mood value was 50.
Si Yisi's paper doll body is still a bit dark, but the blackness has faded by at least half and is now closer to gray.
An Nannan is actually a very proactive person. After glancing down at her phone and switching Si Yisi's activity mode to "strolling," she resolutely opened the door to sign a relevant contract with Miao Ling.
Having received permission to "stroll," Si Yisi was able to leave the dilapidated courtyard.
This stroll doesn't mean arriving empty-handed and leaving empty-handed. On the way out of the courtyard, you'll find some scattered little things, such as hammers and nails for repairing houses, some fruits, vegetables, plants, fish, and so on.
Si Yisi kept putting them into his small pocket as he walked, knowing that An Nannan was too busy to use the app anytime soon.
Si Yisi walked straight down a path, which was a mysterious hidden area. Players like An Nannan only knew that they could "strike gold" here, but they didn't know that this was a customary communication area for the little paper people since their birth.
Follow the communication area forward—that's the road to reality.
As soon as Si Yisi walked in, she was stopped by a boy named Xiaozhipian with a small topknot.
The little boy already has black hair, and his facial features resemble a cute emoji.
The little piece of paper pouted: "Little watermelon, you're a bit dark-skinned. Didn't your 'lover' take good care of you?"
Just as Si Yisi was about to shake her head, she saw the little piece of paper proudly present something, its voice soft and sweet:
"This is a face mask; once you put it on, you won't be able to see the dark spots."
"Ovo works great!"
The little piece of paper quickly covered the face mask on its own face and twirled around in front of Si Yisi, looking quite vain.
