I Have Yet to Become a Doll Today

Chapter 848: Chapter 848 Less People
 

Shen Mo asked Ya Chaohui, “How have you been lately? Has your health improved?”

“A bit,” Ya Chaohui lifted a hand and made a fist, “At first, my body was completely drained of strength, but now it has somewhat recovered.”

He was injured in the “Wildlife Park” and then weakened for a long time after the flowers sapped his vitality. The doctors couldn’t find anything wrong, so they could only advise him to recuperate slowly.

In fact, Bai Youwei also spent a long time amongst the flowers, but, unlike Ya Chaohui at that time, she was not injured, and she wasn’t the type of player who relies on physical strength, so the effect on her was minimal.

Ya Chaohui asked Shen Mo, “Are you prepared for the next battle?”

“The next battle is Battle 1, and the minimum number of participants required is one. I’ll go with her, and you all keep resting,” Shen Mo replied.

Ya Chaohui slightly lowered his head, slowly nodding, “That might be better…”

After a pause of two seconds, he said to Shen Mo, “In a few days, I’m planning to go back to my hometown.”

Shen Mo was slightly stunned. “Going alone?”

“Yeah,” Ya Chaohui nodded, “The King’s territory has expanded a lot, and the entire journey is within his territory, so there’s no need to worry about danger. I’ll be passing by Fang Yu’s hometown on the way, so I’m thinking of visiting his family.”

Hearing this, Shen Mo fell silent for a moment, then asked, “Will you come back?”

Ya Chaohui didn’t say anything.

Perhaps because of this question, he also hadn’t made up his mind.

Another long silence followed.

Shen Mo said, “Go ahead, find a good car, stock up on gasoline, and remember to bring enough food and drinks.”

Ya Chaohui nodded and then looked towards Bai Youwei.

Bai Youwei also looked at him, her gaze neither swerving nor biased, her eyes frank and calm.

Between him and her, there really wasn’t much to say; if they had to force conversation, it would all be stale clichés—they were two people with differing beliefs, unable to persuade one another.

With eyes lowered, Ya Chaohui spoke softly, “I’m off, I wish you success in the next battle.”

After saying this, he turned and left.

“One less subject,” Shen Mo said, watching Ya Chaohui’s retreating figure, his voice detached.

“It doesn’t matter. After all, the next battle only requires one player,” Bai Youwei said nonchalantly.

Shen Mo glanced at her, “The next one is fine, but the battle after that, Battle 5, needs five. You, me, plus Tan Xiao and Asarina, we’re one short.”

As Asarina was unwilling to see Along take risks anymore, Bai Youwei had promised her not to let Along participate in battles. Now with Ya Chaohui gone, they were suddenly down by two people.

Shen Mo said, “When the time comes, let’s see if Chu Huaijin has a suitable candidate.”

Bai Youwei uttered a low “Hmm,” with no immediate ideas.

Just then, a doctor came out from the nearby room, holding a medical report, and said with a smile, “The results are out. Miss Bai’s health is all clear.”

Shen Mo took the report from his hand and thanked the doctor.

The doctor added, “Maybe it’s too much stress. Would you like me to call a psychiatrist to see Miss Bai? Talking to a psychiatrist might help to find the cause of the complications.”

Bai Youwei frowned and declined at once, “No need.”

She tugged on Shen Mo’s sleeve and said, “Let’s head back. Maybe I’ll be fine after a few days of rest from this exhausting maze.”

She didn’t want to seek a psychiatrist, to have someone unrelated analyze her inner thoughts—it was a strange notion, and she wasn’t that fragile.

Seeing her reluctance, Shen Mo didn’t push it and took her back for rest.

Later, after observing Bai Youwei for a few days and seeing that she preferred to use the wheelchair but was no longer having problems with her legs, he was finally at ease.
