Chapter 104: Reality

Ying Xiao did not have time to speak, nor to contact Bell.

The sky was spinning, and it was dark in front of him.

Ying Xiaoxiao opened her eyes and found that she had actually returned to the research institute.

She opened her mouth, but before she could say anything, she fell into a darker world.

When she woke up again, her eyes were pale.

Ying Xiaoxiao looked down, sat up from the bed, and looked at his hand that was hanging water.

This is a hospital ward, how could she be here?

She's obviously not... she's obviously not...

Ying Xiaoxiao's eyes are a little dazed, where should she be?

Why can't seem to remember what happened before?

Ying Xiaoxiao was a little anxious and tried her best to recall what happened before, but no matter how she thought about it, it was all blurry. She just remembered that it was a very important thing.

Ying Xiao lay back on the bed and watched the hanging water drip down little by little.

What did she forget?

Why are you in the hospital?

Ying Xiaoxiao finally caught a thread in a bunch of vague memories and remembered something.

She's in the game... the game is...

Ying Xiaoxiao suddenly opened his eyes, it was Shi Xi!

Ying Xiaoxiao wanted to think about it further, but she had a splitting headache.

"Miss Ying, you are awake."

Someone walked in and saw that Ying Xiaoxiao woke up and was relieved.

"Who are you?"

"My name is Wu Lan, I'm a programmer at the research institute."

"Where's Shi Xi? Is Shi Xi okay? How did I get out? Why can't I remember?"

Ying Xiaoxiao's expression was a little painful, but what was more painful was the truth that she couldn't remember.

"Please don't worry first, the boss is fine at the moment, but he hasn't woken up yet, let me tell you the specifics."

Ying Xiaoxiao nodded, relieved when she heard that Shi Xi was fine, but knowing that Shi Xi hadn't woken up yet, she sighed again.

The cause of the incident was that there was a problem during the trial run of the game. The problem was that the internal ghost of the research institute inserted a virus.

When Ying Xiaoxiao was on the fourth mission, the inner ghost shot again, causing chaos in the game world where Ying Xiaoxiao was, and causing the data to crash.

Ying Xiao's consciousness was forcibly ejected, and because of this, his nerves suffered some damage, and his memory and thinking ability were affected to a certain extent.

After Ying Xiaoxiao passed out, Liu Changqing immediately caught the inner ghost and carried out data repairs. Everyone in the research institute worked together to save Shi Xi's consciousness without being swept away by the data flow.

But Shi Xi's consciousness stayed in the game for too long, her body was declining a little bit, and with the impact of the virus on her consciousness at the end, Shi Xi's nervous system was also affected, so she is still in a coma.

"The boss will be fine, Miss Ying doesn't have to worry too much, you don't have to force yourself to recall, those memories will come back slowly after training."

"What about Shio?"

Should ask a little.

Will Shi Xi remember? Remember what happened to them in the game?

"This...not necessarily."

Wu Lan shook his head hesitantly.

"We can't guarantee that her memory will be there, we can't even guarantee when she will wake up, and whether there will be any sequelae in her brain after waking up."

Wu Lan smiled bitterly, the other party wanted to murder, and it was good that Shi Xi didn't die.

Ying Xiao nodded disappointedly, indicating that he understood.

"How long have I been in a coma?"

"Today is the third day. After you have rested, you can be discharged from the hospital."

"If Shi Xi wakes up, be sure to contact me!"

"Of course, I will. Do you need anything else? I will help you with what I can do."

"No thanks."

"Okay, this small bag on the table is your phone and clothes."

Ying Xiao nodded and watched Wu Lan walk away.

If Shi Xi has no memory, what should he do...

Ying Xiaoxiao was a little uneasy, but immediately she calmed down again.

It doesn't matter, even if Shi Xi doesn't remember, she still has an excuse to approach.

She was the one who saved her, and that was enough.

Next, they can also coincidentally are neighbors.

Ying Xiaoxiao raised a slightly morbidly pale smile, and everything could be taken care of.

Ying Xiaoxiao suddenly thought of something, and the smile on the corner of her mouth froze.

There is one more thing that needs to be dealt with, as long as it is dealt with, everything will be fine.

Ying Xiaoxiao almost couldn't wait to go through the discharge procedures and bought a plane ticket home.

………………

Lin Zhen was sitting on the sofa embroidering, stitch by stitch, extremely patient.

"Ma'am, Miss is back."

The servant walked in and said, Lin Zhen put down the things in her hand.

"Didn't you leave for a few days, why are you willing to come back?"

Lin Zhen felt that it shouldn't be, according to her daughter's nature, didn't she finally stay in the same city with her sweetheart, why would she be willing to come back?

Lin Zhen walked to the door and was startled when she saw Ying Xiaoxiao, who had a pale face with a little vain footsteps.

"Xiao Xiao, what's the matter, are you sick?"

Lin Zhen glanced behind Ying Xiaoxiao, she didn't even have a suitcase, so she was in a hurry to come back.

"Mom, I'm fine."

Ying Xiaoxiao smiled reluctantly, walked past her mother, and walked up the stairs.

Seeing her anxious look, Lin Zhen hurriedly followed behind her.

Ying Xiaoxiao returned to the room she had been away from for a long time. In fact, it didn't take long. The flow of time in the game was different from that in the real world.

She felt that she had been away for a long time, but in fact it was only more than a week in total.

There was some dust in the room. Yingxiao didn't like other people entering her room. Naturally, the servant didn't dare to come in to clean it. She was afraid that she would be unhappy, and she never came in.

Ying Xiaoxiao coughed twice, but her body hadn't recovered yet, so she hurriedly left the hospital and made a flight, running all the way.

"Little one, are you alright?"

Lin Zhen looked at Ying Xiaoxiao's wobbly body and was very worried.

"Mom, I'm fine, I'm just... a little sad."

This room used to be her secret house.

There is also a large photo of Shi Xi on the ceiling, and the wall is full of a person's voice and smile. If you accidentally see these by mistake, you may have nightmares.

But should be small only feel happy.

She was immersed in the world she had created.

The bookshelves were filled with Shi Xi's books, including all the publications in which she had published novels, and even the school newspaper she used to have in school, Ying Xiaoxiao had not let go.

Just looking at these things, you can feel her crazy infatuation and morbid liking.

Every time Lin Zhen looked at the room, she would feel frightened and uncomfortable, but her love for her daughter was enough to suppress her discomfort.

"What's the matter, Xiaoxiao, why are you sad? Did she murder you?"

"No."

Shake your head slightly.

"Then what's the matter, tell mom, mom's here."

Lin Zhen stroked Ying Xiao's head, her eyes caring and loving.

This is the baby she gave birth to in October, and no one understands more than her how insecure she is, and her fragile heart beneath a cheerful exterior.

"Mom, she's in a coma in the hospital, she might forget me, it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter..."

Ying Xiao murmured and started to tear up the photos on the wall.

Lin Zhen was taken aback by her actions, knowing that these are her daughter's treasures.

Ying Xiaoxiao tore off the photos that he had pasted with his own hands one by one, and soon took a stack of them in his hand.

Lin Zhen didn't know what she wanted to do, but she knew that she definitely didn't like Shi Xi anymore.

Ying Xiaoxiao felt a pain in her heart every time she tore a photo. She felt that she was not tearing the photo, but her ugly self.

Accidentally too hard, a photo was torn off a corner.

Ying Xiaoxiao stared blankly at that corner, and tears suddenly fell.

"Mom, I don't want to destroy them."

Ying Xiao turned her head and told her mother choked up.

She doesn't want to destroy these photos, it's too unsafe to throw them away, who knows who will pick them up, she doesn't want others to see Shi Xi she took.

Only burning it is the safest.

But she doesn't want to destroy it, she doesn't want to!

These are all collected by her over the years, little by little.

Every autograph meeting, every candid photo, photos downloaded and printed in any software on Space Weibo, interview drafts... These are all her treasures.

"Then keep it."

Lin Zhen used to want to destroy these photos very much, but now she sees Ying Xiaoxiao bursting into tears, but she is not happy at all.

Her little one shouldn't be like this, she should be carefree and happy, how could she be like this.

"I can't, Mom, I can't."

She couldn't stay, and these were all evidence of her despicable and pathological behavior.

"Little...do you want to hide?"

"Mom, you will keep it a secret for me, right? Dad is too, right?"

Lin Zhen hesitated, unable to say whether it was good or bad.

The daughter still did not solve her psychological problems, but planned to bury it deeply.

Lin Zhen sighed weakly and nodded.

Since knowing this side of her daughter, her thoughts have quietly changed.

She no longer hopes that she can become a great person who can make outstanding contributions to the society, she only hopes that she can become a person who is harmless to the society, and that is enough.

It's just that Shi Xi, a very good person of the same gender as her child, can really be the redemption of her child?

No one likes love that is too heavy.

Lin Zhen couldn't imagine the result if Ying Xiaoxiao could really be with Shi Xi, but was abandoned by Shi Xi in the end.

It was something Ying Xiaoxiao couldn't bear, and maybe she couldn't bear it.

She hopes that Ying Xiaoxiao can live well, but it seems that this wish is not easy to achieve.

This is something that cannot be done with money.

"But there are no airtight walls in the world, Xiao Xiao, squinting and thinking about it, if you really plan to hide them, you must be prepared to be discovered one day."

If you plan to hide your true self, be prepared to be taken off your mask.

Ying Xiao took the photo and was very hesitant.

"Mom, what should I do?"

Ying Xiaoxiao looked at her mother for help. When she was young, it was her mother who always told her what she should do was right.

"Little, there's no way for my mother to tell you what's right or wrong forever. From different perspectives, these two choices are right. What you have to listen to is just your heart."

Ying Xiaoxiao wiped her tears and looked at the photo in her hand.

"But no matter what you choose, Mom and Dad will always be behind you."

Ying Xiao nodded and put the photo on the table.

For the whole day, Yingxiao did nothing but do one thing—organize photos.

She tore the pictures off the wall one by one and put them neatly in the album.

It took three large photo albums to pack up all the terrifying photos in the room.

There are books and other sorted documents that should be kept intact in the bookcase.

She locked the photo album in the drawer and clipped the key to the first book signed by Shi Xi.

If possible, she hoped that the drawer would never be opened.

This is not only her love for Shi Xi, but also so many years.

Just like the inner demon she once suffered, she no longer resists the self that she hated in the past.

Maybe I will never love someone like this again in my life.

It's a once in a lifetime madness.

It's the madness that comes with it.

Ying Xiaoxiao had a good night's sleep after doing all this.

She had a dream in which there were many people and many things.

From the first game, to the second game, until the end of the interruption.

What would things have been like without this game, and it would still be the way it is now.

She made a plan early in the morning to live around Shixi and slowly invade.

Now there is a half chance that Toshio will have the memory in the game, and they can be together more smoothly.

For the next few days, Ying Xiaoxiao stayed at home and didn't go anywhere.

She looks calm, but she is actually very heartbroken.

When will Shi Xi wake up?

But these few days, she didn't do anything and was in a daze. She went back to the online world and said hello to some acquaintances.

【Always like to be with you】

Canna Sauce: Tiny! Long time no see, I feel like you haven't shown up for almost a week!

Xiaoxiao: Well, something happened.

An Anan: Are you alright?

Xiaoxiao: It's nothing.

Cana sauce: Speaking of which, my wife has been missing for a long time. I used to post Weibo every day, even if not every day, every two or three days, but now it has evaporated for a long time.

Le Lesang: Yes, and there is no activity, maybe he is writing a book.

Lovely Chun Yiya: Do you have any news about your wife?

All members of the group know that the administrator Xiaoxiao is a loyal fan of his wife. All the news is immediately known. All the plots of his wife's book can be picked up, but after the wife disappears, Xiaoxiao also disappears, and none of them can ask.

Xiaoxiao: Yes, but I can't say that it involves the wife's privacy.

Braised Duck Wings Braised Chicken Feet: Good, I am too lazy to envy every day. The boss and his wife are so close qwq

Xiao Xiao: Hee hee _(:з"∠)_

Yes, she was very close to Shi Xi, and Shi Xi's body was still far away from her fingers.

After chatting with the 'rivals', Ying Xiaoxiao felt a lot better.

This is the fourth day since she was discharged from the hospital, and Shi Xi still hasn't woken up.

Ying Xiaoxiao decided to buy a plane ticket and fly over tomorrow, and go to the ward to guard Shi Xi.

Her room was redecorated, and it can't be said to be decoration. It was just pasted with wallpaper and changed some decorations.

After these few days of adjustment, Ying Xiaoxiao felt that she could face Shi Xi calmly.

Ying Xiaoxiao greeted her parents, took her luggage, and got on the plane again.

When she stood at the door of the ward, she became inexplicably timid again.

Nothing to be afraid of, should be small.

She said so in her heart.

Ying Xiaoxiao took a deep breath and opened the door of the ward.

The sunlight outside the window brightened the interior, and the person lying on the hospital bed seemed to be asleep.

The needle for hanging the water was submerged into the blue blood vessels, perhaps because the sun was rarely seen during these times, and Shi Xi's skin was abnormally white.

Shi Xi's appearance is not beautiful, but a kind of gentleness like water.

Even if she closed her eyes, the tenderness would come out from her bones.

Ying Xiaoxiao sat beside the bed and stared at the face of the person she loved.

Shi Xi's lips were pale in color, revealing a faint vitality.

Must wake up.

do not forget me.

I should be praying in my heart, but there is no turbulence on my face.

……………………

There is a world about Shixi.

Shi Xi hasn't always been excellent, and only Shi Xi knows this, because other people who know it, such as her parents, her brothers and sisters, her grandparents, have all died.

Shi Xi had been unhealthy since she was a child, and she had to take medicine, and the medicine contained hormones, which made her body swell rapidly, and became a fat girl with all the facial features crowded together.

Because of this, she is often ridiculed.

And what's more deadly, she didn't know if it was also a side effect of the medicine, but she felt herself sluggish.

Everything is slow, including action, including thinking.

The exclusion and bullying she received came not only from outsiders, but also from her own brothers and sisters.

Shi Xi thought that she should hold grudges very much, otherwise she would not have kept her cold for a night because her brother had deliberately wet her quilt in the winter, and she would still remember the next day when she had a fever and laughed at her.

Everything is nasty and nothing is to be happy about.

She's a stupid child, and teachers and classmates don't like her either.

No one likes Shi Xi, she thought.

But things can always change.

She was getting better day by day, and she didn't need to take that kind of medicine anymore.

She started to lose weight.

But some people didn't see it.

In the summer vacation when I was about to enter junior high school, my family went out to play together.

Mom and Dad, brothers and sisters, grandparents, but not with her.

But when something happened to the tourist bus, her whole family was not spared.

Shi Xi numbly accepted the fact that made her dizzy and started a lonely life.

No one is willing to accept her, even the nominal guardian, the aunt who holds her parents' inheritance.

Shi Xi became very fast, she became tall, thin and beautiful, her brain became smart, and she became the goddess of many people.

In the face of those confessions, Shi Xi only found it meaningless.

She watched with cold eyes in her heart, but she still smiled softly and apologetically refused.

It seemed that all the misfortunes in the past had turned into luck and returned to her. Shi Xi got more and more and became more and more calm.

She began to write stories to meet some of her own requirements and understandings about love.

Most of her heroines are unfortunate.

Either the family is crippled, or all die.

But they will both reap the perfect love, and there is one person who likes them more than life.

Shi Xi didn't know if he would wait for that person.

That is, at the beginning of this story, she noticed an interesting person.

Those are a pair of beautiful eyes, belonging to a beautiful little girl, with intoxicating affection in the eyes.

She was always chasing her, everywhere she appeared.

Sometimes he will do some daring behaviors and be a bad boy.

But she thought she was funny and cute.

She would smile at her, and the tip of her tongue would be sweet when she saw her uncontrollable bright smile.

Once she looked in the mirror and saw the girl behind her holding a book with a contented look.

She saw her kiss the signature on the book, and the momentary throbbing made her almost unable to control herself.

The kiss seemed to fall not on the book, but on her heart.

Shi Xi has never been so eager to hold someone in his arms, and then kiss her lips fiercely.

But she was afraid of scaring her little cutie and did nothing.

It wasn't until later that she found that Little Cutie was hiding, and she appeared, but never followed her again.

Is she empathizing?

Shi Xi thought, there should be no.

There was still love in her eyes that moved her.

She seemed to be waiting for a chance, before she couldn't help but grab the cutie.

Unexpectedly, the game was running incorrectly. Shi Xi had to go in and try it anyway, but before that, she designed a program to tell her assistant what tasks the players who entered the game needed to do.

"If there is someone named Ying Xiaoxiao, you must choose her. If it is not her, no matter what method you use, you must notify her."

You will come, my dear.
