I Have Yet to Become a Doll Today

Chapter 379: Chapter 379: A Nightmare Oh
“The Last Bride”, along with Su Man, four people altogether escaped from the game.

All four of them were injured to varying degrees, and Chu Huaijin immediately arranged for their treatment.

Bai Youwei’s injuries were the lightest, only some minor abrasions. Considering her constitution, even without medical treatment, she could recover quickly.

She and Shen Mo returned to the three-bedroom apartment provided by the organization.

There were some unfamiliar faces in the community. Seeing her and Shen Mo, they came over in small groups to greet them. They seemed polite in their conversation, but were actually probing for clues about the 24th game’s content and rewards.

Curiosity is a common trait among humans.

Not to mention that the game is a matter of life and death. If the rewards are substantial and paired with the knowledge of the game’s content, one can totally call up a group of people to play and “farm” the rewards in the game.

But Bai Youwei wasn’t in the mood to deal with these people.

She followed Shen Mo home, then closed the doors and windows, and lay down in bed to rest.

She had walked so much in the game, even with a crutch, her feet and hands were inevitably sore, and her underarms ached with burning pain.

She was used to getting in and out with a wheelchair, how would she have ever experienced such hardship?

Bai Youwei let out a languid sigh.

With the curtains drawn, the room felt like dusk, dark and quiet. She relaxed her body and closed her eyes.

Considering that the organization members might visit at any time to inquire about the game, it was inconvenient to enter the dollhouse now, so she could only rest this way temporarily.

Teacher Chang brought over a bowl of egg custard, muttering, “Weiwei, come quickly and eat this. Shen Fei sent the eggs; I added slices of ham and chives. It’s very nutritious…”

Just as he got to the bedroom door, he was stopped by Shen Mo.

Shen Mo made a shushing gesture at Teacher Chang and silently glanced back at Bai Youwei.

Following his gaze, Teacher Chang saw that Bai Youwei on the bed was already asleep.

“She must be exhausted.” Teacher Chang sighed and whispered to Shen Mo, “I’ll set it aside for now, and reheat it for her when she wakes up.”

After taking a couple steps, he turned back and handed the bowl to Shen Mo: “You eat it. You’ve been on watch these days and must be exhausted too. I’ll make another bowl for Weiwei later.”

Shen Mo shook his head gently, saying, “Give it to Xiaoxin to eat. I’ll stay here with her for a while.”

Tan Xiao, who was in the living room, overheard and immediately said, “Xiaoxin is so young, he can’t finish it! Give it to me, give it to me! I’ll eat half of it for him!”

Pan Xiaoxin said quietly, “I can finish it…”

Shen Mo laughed, then said to Chang Weicai, “You’ve had a hard time, please make another bowl.”

The voices from outside didn’t wake Bai Youwei up, she was fast asleep, almost falling asleep the moment her head touched the pillow.

In her sleep, she had a nightmare.

In the dream, she was being chased by a duke transformed into a beast. She ran hard, ran hard… In reality, her legs couldn’t run at all, but she was running in her dream.

Just as she was about to be caught, her legs suddenly reverted to their handicapped state, and she fell to the ground!

In panic, she searched for her crutch and wheelchair, but it was pitch black all around, and she couldn’t see anything.

That’s when the duke caught up!

In the nick of time, she reached for her puzzle with her last hope!

But there was nothing…

Her hand was empty.

Her puzzle had been given to Su Man; she didn’t have it anymore.

The yawning maw of the duke loomed before her, she shot up in her bed, awaking from her dream!

“Huff…”

Bai Youwei gasped heavily, only realizing she had been dreaming when she saw Shen Mo by her bedside.

Shen Mo reached out to gently pat her back, feeling the cold sweat on her back.

“I’ll go fetch a towel,” he said as he got up.

“No need.” Bai Youwei took his hand, her forehead leaning against his arm, “Stay with me a while.”

Shen Mo fell silent, and sat back down.

Bai Youwei closed her eyes and leaned against him. After a moment, she said in a low voice: “Shen Mo, I gave my puzzle to Su Man.”
