I Have Yet to Become a Doll Today

Chapter 320: 320: Appearance of Many New Characters

She had always been worried about him.

Even though she had endlessly pondered and thought, and she believes that the organization has only intentions to curry favor with Shen Mo, her heart wouldn’t cooperate and she was still worried.

Shen Mo opened the door and came in, quickly noting that something was off. Seeing Bai Youwei come out of the bedroom, he asked her, “Did someone come to the house?”

“That’s not important…” Bai Youwei yawned sleepily, “I waited for you for so long, I’m almost falling sleep.”

“The research group found a game approaching the city and held an emergency meeting…” Shen Mo paused, walked over and held the armrest of her wheelchair. “…Anyway, we’ll talk inside.”

The two of them moved into the bedroom one after the other, shut the bedroom door. Bai Youwei pulled out the golden key and opened the door to the doll house

Once inside the doll house, Shen Mo carried Bai Youwei upstairs to their room and continued speaking:

“The structure of this organization is quite complex, including the members of the SCO Research Group, a special task force, refugee old families, and some scattered local police…”. Shen Mo continued as they walked, “However, the organization is primarily made up of researchers, led by Chu Huaijin, a former leader of a special task force, and then comes Song Mingchuan, a professor at SCO that I’ve mentioned to you before.”

Bai Youwei was sleepy in his arms, and she asked with her eyes closed: “Oh … so why did they call you to the meeting?”

“Shen Fei introduced me.” Shen Mo made his way into the bedroom, put her onto the bed, hesitating on how to introduce his cousin.

“He… has always looked up to me and hopes that I could join the organization. He even recommended me to Professor Song and sung praises about me… I’m also quite interested in Professor Song’s recent research results, so I attended their meeting.”

Bai Youwei laid on the bed, barely managing to open her eyes halfway. She asked him in a murmur, “So are you going to join?”

Shen Mo pondered for a moment, then asked her: “If I join, would you join?”

“Sure…” Bai Youwei yawned again, her voice faint. “But they probably wouldn’t want a cripple.”

Shen Mo smiled and gently played with her hair. “I still want to go to the place with the maze…after we put together all the puzzle pieces, I want to see what happens for myself.”

“Then go…” Her voice became more and more unclear, as if she was fighting sleep. “By the way… have you seen my mom?”

At her words, Shen Mo froze.

Recalling the words of his father, and Shen Fei’s resentful description, he was silent for a few seconds before telling Bai Youwei: “Aunt Wang is currently not in Shanghai.”

Bai Youwei: “Oh…”

Shen Mo didn’t want Bai Youwei to feel awkward, so he tried to explain in the most gentle terms: “After the incident in Yangzhou, my father brought Aunt Wang to Shanghai. Because they heard that the extreme north was not within the range of the Doll game and it was very safe, Aunt Wang… left by boat with a man.”

He left out many details.

He did not mention how his father cared for Wang Jingxian all the way, or that the family members of the organization’s members did not need to enter the games. To avoid being assigned to the games, Wang Jingxian stayed as his father’s companion.

However, she met another old friend in Shanghai, who had once been her suitor. She left Shen Mo’s father without any considerations for past sentiments to board a ship with the man and left Shanghai.

That’s why Shen Fei would feel indignant for his uncle and since Shen Mo was nowhere to be found, he grew to despise Wang Jingxian, and by association, Bai Youwei became in his eyes the “daughter of the fox spirit”.

Bai Youwei didn’t respond for a long time.

Shen Mo hesitated for a moment before speaking again: “We do not have a boat, the chances of finding Aunt Wang are slim.”

Bai Youwei:

Shen Mo looked down at her closely.

She was already asleep.
