I Have Yet to Become a Doll Today

Moreover, it was truly odd to wear a long skirt while traveling.

Bai Youwei wore skirts because wearing trousers was too much of a hassle for her.

If she could run and jump, she would, of course, choose comfortable sportswear.

As Shen Mo and Bai Youwei scrutinized the woman, she also noticed them.

Sitting upright, she turned her head towards them.

Shen Mo and Bai Youwei were both stunned.

Because the woman was not only wearing a long black skirt, but there was also a long black veil on her head. The two had initially thought it was her long hair draped over her shoulders, but only when the woman turned her head, revealing no face, did they realize her head and face were both covered by the black veil.

She was wrapped up more tightly than an Arabian woman; at least they would reveal their eyes, whereas this woman didn’t even reveal an eyebrow!

This was too strange.

Wasn’t she hot in that outfit?

Although it was already autumn, the heat was still intense, with the daytime temperature reaching as high as twenty-seven or twenty-eight degrees. Bai Youwei felt she would probably suffer from heatstroke if she dressed like that woman.

“So strange…” Bai Youwei murmured under her breath.

“Let’s go and have a look.” Shen Mo started the car again.

As the woman in the black skirt saw them coming, she lowered her head and bent to enter the tent. Following that, a young man in a hoodie came out of the tent, casting a wary glance at Shen Mo’s car.

This man was none other than Du Lai, who had previously swapped the Substitute Doll with Bai Youwei.

Du Lai was camping near the maze with a woman? Interesting.

Bai Youwei narrowed her eyes. As Shen Mo pulled up with the car and stopped, she greeted Du Lai with a smile, “Long time no see~”

“It’s you guys.” Du Lai’s face relaxed upon recognizing them, and he returned Bai Youwei’s smile.

Bai Youwei grinned and asked, “Who else did you think it could be?”

“Oh, I didn’t think it was anyone specific.” Du Lai glanced at Shen Mo, who was at the wheel, and casually asked, “Are you two thinking of entering the maze? Don’t you think you’re a bit short-staffed?”

“Aren’t there also just two of you?” Shen Mo replied nonchalantly.

“Indeed, the maze is filled with perils, and two people do make for a weak team. Which is why we haven’t really decided whether to enter yet.” Du Lai glanced at the tent and introduced with a jovial tone, “That’s my girlfriend inside. She’s not fond of talking much, hope you don’t mind.”

“Not at all.” Bai Youwei replied, “We are also resting here. You don’t mind, do you?”

There was a slight stiffness in Du Lai’s smile as he answered, “No, not at all.”

A low grumble came from inside the tent, “There’s plenty of space, why do they have to rest here…”

The voice was soft, but Bai Youwei and Shen Mo heard it clearly.

Du Lai smiled, turned around, and retreated into the tent.

Bai Youwei could hear him appeasing the woman with a low voice, but they were talking in the dialect, so she couldn’t make out what they were saying.

After a while, the woman stopped talking, and no more sounds came from the tent.

Shen Mo asked Bai Youwei, “Are you sure about resting here?”

They had the Doll House, they didn’t necessarily have to fight for this space with Du Lai.

Plus, when searching for Su Man, the faster they find her the better, in case something happened to her in the maze and they wouldn’t be there to help.

Bai Youwei glanced at the tent not too far away, her eyebrows furrowing slightly, “I’m slightly concerned… If we could cooperate, it’d be one thing, but what if he decides to cause trouble for us?”
