I Have Yet to Become a Doll Today

Chapter 122 - 122: 122: Chatting in the Evening

Being a tourist attraction, it’s not short of vacation hotels.

Upon arrival, they were allocated two twin rooms and a burly man also brought them a bag of rice, ensuring their needs for food and accommodation on the island would be met, just as he’d promised before.

Of course, although the rice was free, they would have to work to earn their meals after that.

With it being late in the day, everything else would have to wait until tomorrow. Everyone returned to their rooms to rest.

The soft bedding was much more comfortable than the tents, yet it gave off an unreal sensation.

In her bed, Bai Youwei kneaded her slightly sore and numb legs. Whether she moved or remained still, it was uncomfortable.

After closing her eyes for a while without falling asleep, she burrowed into her blanket and asked, “Shen MO, are you asleep?”

Shen MO, from the next bed, remained still, merely grunting in a low, hoarse voice.

“I can’t sleep,” said Bai Youwei. “Let’s chat for a while.”

After a moment of silence, Shen MO turned his head to her and asked, “Chat about what?” Bai Youwei: “About feelings?”

Shen Mo: ‘

He turned his head back away, no longer looking at her.

Bai Youwei: “If you don’t want to chat about feelings, we can discuss our bodies.”

“Bai Youwei….” Shen Mo’s voice held a mix of irritation and a hint of helplessness. “Are you going to sleep or not?”

Bai Youwei also felt troubled: “I want to sleep, but I can’t because we’ve suddenly switched places.”

“You can’t sleep so you’re bothering me?”

“If I don’t bother you, should I bother myself?” she replied in surprise. “I’m not dumb!”

Shen Mo: ‘

He stopped talking again.

Bai Youwei, realizing she’s annoyed him, sighed quietly, turned over in her bed and stared at the mountains outside her window.

“It’s so chilly in here…” she whispered wistfully, “So chill that it doesn’t feel like summer at all.”

After a while, Shen MO replied casually: “There’s a significant temperature difference in the mountains.’

Bai Youwei, glad he was willing to engage with her again, continued their chat: “There’re more mountains on the other island, it must be even colder there at night. Do you think there’s really a safety base there? I somehow find that hard to believe. The mountains there look dark and menacing, without a single light.”

Shen MO answered quietly: “Whether there’s a safety base there or not, we’ll find out tomorrow.”

“How will we find that out?” Bai Youwei asked. “Uncle Zhao said that he sends people to the base every week, and the next round isn’t until the day after tomorrow. Unless you’re planning on swimming over there tomorrow…”

“If there truly is a large safety base, there will inevitably be ships transferring goods.” Shen MO said calmly, “The dolls have only appeared a few months ago, so the safety base can’t possibly be self-sufficient yet. Therefore, there should be transport ships out on the lake tomorrow. If there aren’t, it means Uncle Zhao’s information was fake.’

At this point, he lowered his voice: “As for why he would give out fake news…

either it’s to keep people calm, or to conceal a secret. Besides, where do all the people who were sent to West Mountain Island go?”

If there was no safety base on West Mountain Island, where did all the people who were sent there go? Why hadn’t they come back?

“It’s too early to discuss these matters now, we’ll see what happens tomorrow…” Shen MO mused.

After a while, he received no response from Bai Youwei.

He turned his head to look, and found that she had fallen asleep, her eyes closed.

Shen MO was filled with a sense of helplessness.

Yet, her sleeping face was truly adorable, innocent like a well-behaved child.

How could a person show such massive contrast?

Silently sighing, Shen MO got up to tuck the corner of her blanket in, then went back to bed..
