Chapter 3 - A different world

Mi Li searched the Internet for information about some famous novelists, but couldn't find a suitable target.

Old Bai was 29 years old this year. Although she could not remember his exact appearance, in her impression, he was very handsome and had a good figure. His every move had the charm of a mature man. Most of the male writers who published the photos online were average-looking, with occasional online appearances and mismatches on age, height and other relevant information.

It's obviously impossible to find him on the internet, but there's no hurry. When Mi Li see him again, she can ask him where he lives.

After a few out-of-body experiences, Mi Li gradually adapted to the changes. She made a sleep plan so that she wouldn't be distracted by drowsiness. Add 2 hours of sleep in the morning, in the middle and the night, and she get about 14 hours of sleep a day. If she can not ensure adequate sleep, she will have mental retardation, decreased work efficiency and other symptoms, seriously affecting her daily life.

Rather than trying to resist sleepiness, try to manage her time as rationally as possible.

After lunch, Mi Li exercise at home, and then lie comfortably in bed, set the alarm clock, into sleep.

The familiar sense of drift reappeared, a blur of noise from around, when the light gradually bright, the first appeared in the field of vision of Mi Li is a pair of beautiful big eyes. The owner of the eyes was a little girl of seven or eight, with two cornrows, her hands on the display case, and her eyes were shining.

"Hello, Xiaomei." Mi Li say hello to her in a friendly way.

But the little girl turned a deaf ear and shouted to the woman not far away, "Mommy, I want to buy this little rabbit!"

His chubby little hand pointed straight in the direction of Mi Li.

Mi Li realized that the little girl was talking about her, with her big head, long ears, squinting eyes, chubby, half-human height, and six or seven other puppets of different shapes, sit in a neat circle.

People around, from time to time from her line of sight across the body, mostly children.

Just then, Mi Li suddenly found a familiar figure in the crowd, pushing a shopping cart, from the snack area.

"Old Bai! ! !" Mi Li sends out the scream of the soul.

Xi Baichen steps a stop, look around.

"I'm here, 10 o'clock."

Xi Baichen turn head, the vision looks directly to 10 o'clock position.

"By the way, see that cute little rabbit on the display case? That's me."

Xi Baichen steps forward, came to the display cabinet, find a god-like fat rabbit, silent and looked at it.

"Congratulations! If you find a cute pet, please take it home at once."

"Uncle also likes Small Rabbit Ji?" A childish voice from the side came.

Xi Baichen glanced at the little girl next to one eye, said coldly: "Don't like."

"That's good. I thought you were going to fight me for the little rabbit chick." The little girl patted her chest and looked relieved. Then, she asked, "The little rabbit chick is so cute. Why don't you like it?"

"Don't you think this stupid donkey is more lovely?" Xi Baichen take out a Muppet casually from the side of rabbit serge, hand in front of the little girl.

The little girl was silent for a moment, cast him a slightly disgusted look: "This is the grass mud horse."

Xi Baichen:"..."

"Ha-ha-ha, that's Funny Bunny!" Mi Li are laughing so hard her ears are shaking.

The little girl seems to feel, just want to look up, heard her mother's voice from the side came: "Xinxin, you just said what you want to buy?"

"Little Rabbit!" The little girl pointed happily at the rabbit. She was distracted when she saw a large hand pass over her head, pick up the rabbit's ear, and throw it into his shopping cart. Then, as the little girl stared blankly, drifting away.

I thought you didn't like bunnies? Why are you fighting me for the bunnies? ! Have you no dignity as an adult? ! Liar! !!

The little girl widened her eyes, her face as if struck by lightning.

"Are you sure this is a good idea?" Mi Li felt that Old Bai would never have children in his life.

"Who said let me take her home?" Xi Baichen disapprovingly glanced at her.

"You should at least be gentle with children."

"Ha." Xi Baichen disdainfully hummed.

After paying at the cashier's counter, Xi Baichen took a shopping bag in one hand and a fat rabbit in the other, striding out of the shopping mall.

Xi Baichen was about to close the door when Mi Li said quickly, "Wait, help me change my position. Don't make me lie on my stomach. I want to see the scenery outside the window."

Xi Baichen turn her over, put to be upright, lean to sit in the car door side.

"And seat belts, don't forget."

So much work!

Xi Baichen help her fasten the seat belt.

"Thank you, you're a good man." Mi Li didn't skimp on giving him a good man card.

Xi Baichen sat in the driver's seat expressionlessly and started the engine.

Mi Li look out of the window and pay close attention to iconic buildings, facilities or billboards.

Shoufeng building, Thorn Museum, Baijia Road, Yunlang City Hospital...

Yunlang City? China has Yunlang City? Mi Li weas a bit confused.

The language, customs, ethnic characteristics, and so on were all the same as in China, where she lived. Why was there a city she had never heard of?

Did her subconscious make that up? Or is she in some kind of alternate reality?

It was strange enough to think that her soul had left her body, but things were more complicated than she had imagined.

"Old Bai, where are you from?" Mi Li asked suddenly.

"The cloud wave city native. "Xi Baichen casually asks, "You?"

"Hangzhou."

"Hangzhou?" Xi Baichen strangely says, "Where is Hangzhou?"

"... Is this China?" Mi Li asks again.

"Of course is China." Xi Baichen through rearview mirror, gave her a strange glance.

Mi Li shock face: the same is China, why the difference will be so big? ? ?

If it is a third-and fourth-tier city, but the capital city of ZheJiang, one of the eight ancient capitals of China. Even if you have never studied geography, it is impossible not to know where Hangzhou is!

Yunlang city is obviously not a small place, look at its level of consumption, transportation hub, landmark buildings, etc. , absolutely reached the first-line level. Such a big city, as a Chinese, how could not have heard of?

Amidst the chaos, Mi Li was carried into the villa by Xi Baichen and placed in the center of the sofa, sitting steadily and steadily..

Xi Baichen sorted out the things in his shopping bag, sat down next to Mi Li with a cup of hot tea, and then took out his phone to order a seafood pot online.

"Why didn't you eat outside just now?" Mi Li couldn't help but ask when he ordered takeout again.

"Too many people." Xi Baichen threw his phone aside, picked up a cup of hot tea, and casually turned on the TV.

"Can't You Cook?"

"Can't." Xi Baichen has a lazy expression, lack of interest to this topic.

"Eating too much take-out food is not good for your health. You should learn to cook by yourself. If you really don't want to Cook by yourself, you can find an Auntie to cook for you." Mi Li transformed into an old mother and earnestly taught him.

"I don't like to cook, and I don't like outsiders coming in and out of my house." Xi Baichen's eyes were half-lowered, and his expression darkened. He exuded an air of being a stranger.

"I seem to be an outsider too?" Shouldn't she feel honored that Xi Baichen chose to accept her existence instead of throwing her out?

"You're not human."

Mi Li: "..." You can't expect too much from a man who bets on being alone.

Half an hour later, Xi Baichen's takeaway was delivered.

Seafood pot looks good, the weight is also very enough. Xi Baichen eat methodically, expression light, do not see likes and dislikes.

"Is it good?" Mi Li asked.

"Fine."

He didn't look like he was enjoying the food at all, but simply putting it in his mouth.

One person shopping, one person eating, one person writing... ... Every time I see him, he seems to be alone.

It seems no wonder that novelists are homebodies. But look at his figure, it is maintained well, take care of, just like a male god, clearly can make money on the face, he had to rely on the hand.

When Mi Li was lost in thought, Xi Baichen had already finished eating the seafood rice and there was no residue left in the lunch box.

Clean up the table, wash up, brew a cup of strong tea, open the notebook, Xi Baichen is ready to start writing again.

Mi Li's spirit lifted as she remembered the plot she had watched last time, just continue to chase more.

There was a steady, rhythmic sound of typing in the room.

Mi Li sat next to Xi Baichen, staring intently at the screen. Looking at it, suddenly she felt something was wrong.

"What are you writing? ? ?" Last time was obviously supernatural suspense, how this became urban love? A man and a woman have all kinds of misunderstandings because of a vicious woman, the two of them loved each other so much that it was hard for them to say anything. They spared no effort to hurt each other. The plot was melodramatic, and the way they treated made Mi Li wonder if Xi Baichen was possessed by a mentally retarded girl!

Xi Baichen's expression did not change. He used his sharp hands to sketch out a series of stupid plots. He wrote tens of thousands of words, each and every one of them shedding blood. Even the punctuation were filled with tears. The more Mi Li looked, the angrier she became, and finally cried and said, "Brother, please, don't be a newspaper! Isn't it good to be a kind person?"

The aloof master persona is prone to collapse.

The supernatural suspense is well written, why do you have to be so indecisive!

"Doesn't it look good?"After finishing writing, Xi Baichen sorted out the document, packaged it and sent it to the editor, then lit a cigarette and casually glanced at the silly rabbit beside him.

"What misconception do you have about"Pretty"? ? ?"This kind of mind-lowering sadomasochistic love is being blasted to death by readers every minute, okay?

"Just write casually, I feel OK." Xi Baichen exhaled a smoke ring.

No Way! !! It's like smelling sad and seeing someone cry. If you persist in watching it, your values will inevitably shatter, okay?

"Keep writing about supernatural mysteries, love is not for you."

"Do you understand love very much?" Xi Baichen flicked cigarette ash, folded his legs, and leaned comfortably on the sofa.

"Sure. I have had more boyfriends than you have written novels."

Xi Baichen chuckled softly and said, "I didn't expect you to still be a libertine."

Romantic Ghost → Mi Li: " ..."

"Since you have so much experience, you can help me refer to it next time."Xi Baichen said casually as he extinguished the cigarette butt.

"Sure! I'm more than happy." Mi Li is enthusiastic, "I can help you refer to it, I guarantee you will become famous.

Xi Baichen turned a deaf ear and scooped up the silly rabbit, kneading it into a round and flattened shape.

"Ah ah, let go of me quickly, don't touch me randomly!" Mi Li protested loudly.

"Do you feel anything?" Xi Baichen tugged at her rabbit ear and mentioned something closer.

"Yes, yes, yes, Absolutely." Although it was not obvious, there was still that slight feeling of numbness and softness, like being blown by a heater or being scratched by a feather.

Xi Baichen flipped the rabbit over and shook it, as if wanting to shake out Mi Li inside.

"What are you doing?" The Rabbit suddenly put out two paws and hugged his arm.

"HMM?" Xi Baichen was very interested and said, "So you can move."

As soon as the voice fell, the soft paws slipped from his arm and dangled in mid-air.

Mi Li can control the object she possess to a certain extent, but she cannot persist for too long and cannot violate the characteristics of the possessed object. For example, the night light, she can control the switch, but cannot move or explode in place.

While playing, there were a few thumping sounds on the laptop, and Xi Baichen's editor sent a message of deduction.

Xi Baichen held the rabbit in his arms and opened the message window.

[Drunken in the Red Dust: My dear rainbow fart, you wrote it so well!!! I was tortured and cried!]

Mi Li: What the hell is rainbow fart?! Is Old Bai's pen name Rainbow fart???

Xi Baichen replied with one finger: "Hmm."

[Drunken in the Red Dust: Rainbow fart, are you really not planning to put it on the shelves? It's such a pity that this beautiful article is free.]

[Rainbow fart: Not on sale.]

Mi Li: Wait, isn't the 'beautiful article' she mentioned just now the one about deep love and sadomasochistic love? Is that also called good-looking? Is he serious?!

[Drunken in the Red Dust: Ah ah, Da Da is truly a refreshing stream in the world of online literature.]

Mi Li: ...

[Rainbow fart: Can you help me upload it? If there's nothing else, just kneel down.]

[Drunken in the Red Dust: Wait, Dongqi Media has taken a liking to your article "Spicy Wife and Fierce Husband" and asked if you have any intention of selling the film and television rights.]

Mi Li: What the hell is 'Spicy Wife and Fierce Husband'?

[Rainbow fart: Not for sale.]

[Drunken in the Red Dust: Don't you think about it? The other party has offered over 3 million yuan.]

[Rainbow fart: Not for sale.]

[Drunken in the Red Dust: Alas, well, who said you are such a big deal who treats money like dirt]

After they finished talking, Mi Li couldn't help but ask: "Old Bai, what do you write exactly?"

"It depends on the mood." Xi Baichen pulled out another cigarette from the cigarette box and was about to get a lighter when he was suddenly held down by a soft paw.

"Smoke less." Mi Li have a serious expression. "Smoking is harmful to health, pollutes the environment, and can also reduce Sex-function."

Xi Baichen looked at the silly and cute rabbit face, paused for a moment, and finally put the cigarette in his mouth.

The paw slipped and the rabbit stopped talking.

"Xiaomi?"

The air suddenly quieted down and there was no response.

Xi Baichen leaned against the sofa, took out the cigarette from his mouth, and threw it on the table.

A few rays of sunshine penetrated through the window, reflecting the figures of a person and a rabbit on the sofa.
