I Have Yet to Become a Doll Today

Chapter 863: Chapter 863: Send Him Off

Bai Youwei smiled faintly, said nothing.

Du Lai pleaded with her again, “Now, you already know the method to get through the maze. Such a maze poses no danger to you; you just need to go in and deliver a message… Bai Youwei, I know you must have a way to save Miaoxue. Please, I beg you!”

Bai Youwei remained unmoved. With a smile, she said lightly, “You should wait longer. Fu Miaoxue is smart; she might come out on her own soon.”

“She won’t come out!” Du Lai clenched his teeth, his emotions close to breaking, “The longer she stays in the dream, the more she’ll confuse dreams with reality! She’ll forget everything about the real world and completely accept all settings and scripts of the dream! She will be totally trapped in the dream!!!”

After hearing this, Bai Youwei was silent for a moment before speaking indifferently, “The one who agreed to enter the maze was her. She must have been prepared for whatever consequences she might face.”

Bai Youwei gently patted Chen Hui on the shoulder and said with a smile, “Take good care of yourself; I’ll come see you another day.”

After speaking, she turned and walked out of the hospital room, brushing past Du Lai.

Shen Mo stayed a bit longer in the room and then said, “Du Lai, have you ever considered, maybe Fu Miaoxue isn’t unable to come out, but rather she doesn’t want to come out.”

Du Lai’s face looked extremely troubled.

Shen Mo didn’t look at him again and followed Bai Youwei, the two gradually walking away.

Unable to accept it, Du Lai shouted at their backs, “Bai Youwei! Don’t you care at all whether your mother is dead or alive right now?!”

Bai Youwei’s footsteps faltered slightly, then quickly recovered, and she left the medical area with Shen Mo.

Du Lai clenched his fist and smashed it violently against the door frame, his eyes red with emotion.

He indeed had no other options.

…

Back in her room, Bai Youwei sat down beside the bed, her expression somewhat vacant.

Shen Mo knew she was thinking about the No. 1 maze.

“Even if we know the key clue to the No. 1 maze, and even though the maze isn’t dangerous, there’s no need to go at this critical moment. There’s not much time left until the third battle. If entering the maze affects the outcome of the battle game, it would be a loss not worth the cause.”

Shen Mo tried to lift her spirits and patiently advised, “Anything can be postponed until after securing an absolute victory.”

Including finding Bai Youwei’s mother.

—What if going now affects her condition? What if it leads to failure? What if it results in dying in the game? Not even able to save her own life, even if she finds her mother, wouldn’t they still be separated? What difference would it make?

However, Bai Youwei had never considered looking for Wang Jingxian.

She had her own path to walk, and her mother, of course, had her own path too. Even the closest blood ties couldn’t prevent them from becoming people of completely separate worlds.

Sitting quietly, Bai Youwei thought for a long time, then dug through her canvas bag and pulled out a card, handing it to Shen Mo.

“Give this to Du Lai,” she said.

Shen Mo took it, his brow slightly furrowed.

[Friend Invitation Card: Holders of the invitation card can enter uninvited areas, or some restricted areas.]

“Can this item be used on the maze?” Shen Mo was uncertain.

“It should be possible…” Bai Youwei sighed softly, “Besides this, I really can’t think of any other reason Du Lai’s divination led him to me. To save Fu Miaoxue, aside from needing someone who’s never entered the No. 1 maze, you also need an item that can enter someone else’s dreams.”

Honestly, from what Shen Mo knew about Bai Youwei, she wasn’t a person generous with charity.

Shen Mo studied her expression and asked, “Are you planning to trade with him using this?”

Bai Youwei shook her head and said softly, “Giving it to him. Strange, isn’t it? I don’t like Du Lai, and I dislike Fu Miaoxue, yet for some reason… I don’t want to see these two separated.”
