Wheel: ...The clown is actually myself?
At the same time, the live chat exploded with laughter.
[Ruthless Zhao Si: Hahahaha! This girl is obviously a super sweet Omega, and this guy just finds her annoying?]
[95725: I'm guessing this person is a perpetually single old dog!]
[Five Hula Hu: What if this person is an Omega themselves?]
【I'm so glad I said O! I've already changed my couple name!】
[A protracted collapse: Get out of here!]
...
After the game ended, Jiang Shuiyun left the team room, took a screenshot of her current ranking of over 2,900, exited the game, filled out the application form according to the format, and sent it to the recruitment email address of Shengguang Group. Now she just had to wait for their reply.
Jiang Shuiyun stretched her stiff back, which had been a bit sore from sitting all day, rubbed her neck, and looked up outside. It was completely dark, and a light drizzle was still falling. Yi Jinbai was still sitting at the door, unusually quiet, with only the faint sound of rain to be heard.
Jiang Shuiyun then realized that she had forgotten Yi Jinbai at the door. She quickly got up, but her legs, which had been sitting all afternoon, were numb, and she stumbled and almost fell.
Holding onto the table, Jiang Shuiyun stretched her ankles and limped towards Yi Jinbai. When she got closer, she found that Yi Jinbai had actually fallen asleep in the chair. Fortunately, he was covered with a blanket, so he shouldn't catch a cold.
Sleeping here isn't a solution either; how could this tiny chair possibly be comfortable?
Once she was sure Yi Jinbai's legs were no longer numb, Jiang Shuiyun tucked the blanket around him and gently lifted him up, transferring him to the bed.
Yi Jinbai was sleeping soundly and didn't wake up even after Jiang Shuiyun covered her with a blanket. Looking at Yi Jinbai's sleeping face, Jiang Shuiyun never thought that she would have such a day.
After tucking Yi Jinbai in, Jiang Shuiyun prepared to go buy groceries and cook dinner. Practice makes perfect, and it didn't seem so difficult after all.
Holding an umbrella in one hand and her phone in the other, searching for tonight's recipes, Jiang Shuiyun had just stepped out of the courtyard when a sudden thought struck her as she looked at her phone. She seemed to remember—wasn't that "cart wheel" the online name of the mistress the original owner of the book later kept?
The part where the original owner brings people back to humiliate the female lead is the one that makes Jiang Shuiyun so angry that she throws the book. In the original novel, it is written that the original owner and the mistress she is keeping met online, and it is also specifically mentioned that the original owner disliked the other party's awful online name.
It turned out that the two were already friends. Jiang Shuiyun frowned slightly, turned back, took out her computer, logged into the game, and then deleted all of the original owner's game friends, including Che Gulu, to eliminate any potential problems. Only then did she feel less awkward.
After doing all this, Jiang Shuiyun habitually looked up in Yi Jinbai's direction. She would never allow the things that happened in the book to happen again in reality.
Jiang Shuiyun deleted all her friends on her end. Meanwhile, Shen Yunyi returned to the company and couldn't understand how one person could change so much, becoming completely like two different people.
After thinking it over, Shen Yunyi logged into the game, intending to watch Jiang Shuiyun's gameplay again. Even if someone has a lot of memory loss, their memory of game controls shouldn't be too different.
After Shen Yunyi searched through the list several times, even using precise searches, he still found nothing. In the end, he could only try to add the other party as a friend, and then he saw a message that the other party had blocked him from adding friends.
I don't remember myself, but I do remember deleting myself in the game?
Just as Shen Yunyi thought Jiang Shuiyun was playing a trick on him, he slammed his fist on the table. Then, his subordinate sent him a message.
[Team Leader Sun: Mr. Shen, great news! We've received an application form from your old acquaintance, Jiang Shuiyun. She's volunteered to join our team!]
Walking into a trap? This time, Shen Yunyi was completely confused. What exactly was Jiang Shuiyun up to?
Chapter 6
After Jiang Shuiyun thought she had resolved the potential future problems, she took her umbrella and went out to buy groceries and cook. When she returned, Yi Jinbai was still asleep.
"This is sleeping for way too long," Jiang Shuiyun glanced at the wontons she had just bought, started boiling water, and went over to wake Yi Jinbai up. If he slept too much during the day, he would have trouble sleeping at night.
"Jin Bai?"
Jiang Shuiyun called out twice, but Yi Jinbai still didn't react. Puzzled, she reached out and touched Yi Jinbai's forehead. To her surprise, Yi Jinbai's forehead was burning hot.
"Jin Bai? Jin Bai?"
Jiang Shuiyun helped the man up and held him in her arms, trying to wake him up. But after calling him several times, Yi Jinbai only responded vaguely twice, clearly delirious from the fever.
It was obvious that Jiang Shuiyun had forgotten Yi Jinbai at the door this afternoon and he had caught a cold. This was the first time Jiang Shuiyun had encountered such a situation, and she was at a loss for what to do. She glanced at the light rain outside, which was almost stopped, and took out her phone to search for the location of the nearest hospital.
Fortunately, the location wasn't too far; there was a hospital not far from the flower shop from last time.
Having memorized the location, Jiang Shuiyun dressed Yi Jinbai in layers of clothing, then draped a blanket over Yi Jinbai's back and carried him on her back.
It was obvious that she couldn't use an umbrella while carrying someone on her back, so Jiang Shuiyun covered Yi Jinbai's head with a blanket. Fortunately, the light drizzle wasn't too heavy, and the blanket wouldn't get soaked in the short time they were walking.
Without even turning off the lights, Jiang Shuiyun hurriedly closed the door and carried Yi Jinbai to the hospital.
The sky was pitch black, and the smooth bluestone in the alley was now slippery after being hit by the rain. Jiang Shuiyun carefully avoided the slippery and reflective spots while carrying someone on her back, and almost stepped into a puddle with every step. Her pants were soaked in just two steps.
Finally out of the alley, Jiang Shuiyun blinked, shook her head, trying to shake off the water droplets on her eyelashes, and stood on the main road looking left and right. It was a rainy night, and there wasn't a single car in sight, let alone a taxi.
Having anticipated this situation, Jiang Shuiyun didn't dawdle and continued carrying Yi Jinbai along the route in her mind.
In the quiet night, the barely perceptible sound of rain, the occasional gentle breeze and rustling of leaves, and the sound of breathing on my back were all exceptionally clear.
Breathing in the humid air, Jiang Shuiyun walked step by step along the dim streetlights. This time, she felt as if she was truly integrating into this unfamiliar world, no longer like an outsider observing everything from a god-like perspective.
The life before belonged to the original owner; the life from now on belongs to Jiang Shuiyun.
When Jiang Shuiyun carried Yi Jinbai to the hospital, she was almost completely soaked, but Yi Jinbai was fine; although the blanket was mostly wet, he wasn't wet at all.
Stepping into the unfamiliar hospital, Jiang Shuiyun was momentarily at a loss. In her previous life, she had never been to a hospital except when she was on the battlefield. When she was wounded on the battlefield, there were always dedicated doctors waiting for her, so she didn't have to do anything. But what should she do now? What should she do?
Just as Jiang Shuiyun was thinking about how to check on her phone, the nurse on duty noticed the two strange people standing in the lobby and came over to ask them questions.
"Do you need any help?"
“Yes, we need to,” Jiang Shuiyun nodded as if he had seen a lifeline. “My wife seems to have a fever, and we can’t wake her up no matter what we do.”
"Don't rush, come with me."
Following the nurse's instructions, Jiang Shuiyun successfully found the doctor on duty, registered, paid, and picked up the medicine. After running back and forth several times, she finally breathed a sigh of relief as she sat on a hospital bench and watched Yi Jinbai finally get his injection.
Excuse me, does my wife not need to be hospitalized?
After the nurse finished giving her the injection, Jiang Shuiyun asked a question. She remembered that every time she was injured, she would lie directly in a hospital bed, especially if it was as serious as losing consciousness, she would have to stay in bed for at least two days.
"No need, you just caught a chill. You can go home after you finish your IV drip and get your medicine."
"OK, thanks."
After thanking her, Jiang Shuiyun let Yi Jinbai lean against her, which would at least make her more comfortable. She then hung the wet blanket aside to dry, knowing it probably wouldn't dry completely, but she couldn't use it to cover herself anymore.
"These days, it's really rare to find a good partner like this. He carried her in the rain, and his wife didn't get wet at all."
"They even ran around taking care of me while I got my injection, their eyes filled with undisguised worry and love. Is this what true human kindness is?"
"There is true love in the world. They are both so good-looking and a perfect match. I'm tired of saying I'm envious."
...
The nurses at the station were whispering amongst themselves. Normally, their conversation wouldn't have reached this area, but Jiang Shuiyun's senses were far superior to those of ordinary people, and she heard every single word.
Looking down at Yi Jinbai nestled in her arms, Jiang Shuiyun knew that it was all an illusion. Yi Jinbai's illness this time was entirely due to her negligence. She was neither a qualified lover nor worthy of being called Yi Jinbai's lover.
When the last bottle was finished, Yi Jinbai finally woke up, rubbing his eyes groggily, almost falling back asleep.
"Jin Bai?"
Jiang Shuiyun watched, carefully holding the hand that Yi Jinbai was using to give the injection, so as not to touch it, and called out softly.
Seeing that Yi Jinbai was still looking at her somewhat dazedly, Jiang Shuiyun felt even more guilty. "You have a fever. I'm sorry, I forgot you at the door."
"here it is?"
Yi Jinbai then noticed that the surrounding environment was much brighter than at home, and his own hand receiving an injection.
"Don't move. This is a hospital. Here's a bottle of medicine. The doctor said you can go home after this injection."
After Jiang Shuiyun finished explaining while holding Yi Jinbai's hand, she saw Yi Jinbai awkwardly pull his hand away, step back, and lean against the back of the chair with his head down.
"Thanks."
Hearing the thank you, Jiang Shuiyun felt a little disappointed as she reached for her empty hand and changed the subject, "Do you want some water? I'll get you some."
After saying that, before Yi Jinbai could refuse, Jiang Shuiyun stood up to pour water.
After getting a disposable paper cup from the nurses' station, Jiang Shuiyun was directed to stand in front of the water dispenser not far from the nurses' station.
How do I use this thing?
Stumped again, Jiang Shuiyun stood blankly in front of the water dispenser, tentatively reaching out her hand.
"Just press the switch under the spout with a cup and push it forward a little."
The nurse next to her couldn't stand Jiang Shuiyun's probing actions, which were like defusing a bomb, and spoke up to remind her.
It was truly a lifesaver. Jiang Shuiyun thanked the nurse again and tried to use the method she had been told. However, she overlooked the fragility of the paper cup. She managed to push the switch, but the cup was crushed.
"hiss!"
The scalding hot water made Jiang Shuiyun gasp, and the sound of the cup falling to the ground drew everyone's attention.
"You got burned? Go to the restroom over there and rinse it with cold water."
Fortunately, this was a hospital. Jiang Shuiyun stood in the bathroom, watching the water flow over her reddened skin, and pinched her brow with her other hand.
Suddenly, Jiang Shuiyun realized that she still had a long way to go to integrate into this world. At first, she thought it was just a downgraded version of her own world, a mobile phone and a computer, just a simpler version of a quantum computer with limited functions and slightly more complicated operation, and a car in a more primitive form. She thought that she could accept it without much problem.
But while I can accept these complex things without difficulty, I get stuck on the most mundane little things, everything of which is something I've never seen before, which is very strange.
Jiang Shuiyun turned off the tap and shook the water droplets off his hands. Actually, this might not be entirely a problem of the world. It might be more related to his years of living in the military and holding a high position, where he had no experience of daily life.
Blowing on her still slightly burning hands, Jiang Shuiyun walked out of the restroom and, seeing the water in Yi Jinbai's hands, thanked the nurses first.
Sitting down next to Yi Jinbai, Jiang Shuiyun also fell silent. Pouring water, she managed to scald herself first, and then didn't even pour the water back. Even she couldn't help but feel disgusted with herself for being so clumsy.
Yi Jinbai's lowered gaze could just see Jiang Shuiyun's still red hand. He felt complicated. Regardless of whether Jiang Shuiyun had lost her memory or not, pouring water was not an easy task for a pampered young lady who had been waited on hand and foot. She had been burned twice in just two days.
Yi Jinbai couldn't help but wonder, if Jiang Shuiyun hadn't fallen on hard times and hadn't lost her memory, would she have been able to burn her hand? Would she still be the same person she is now? Impossible.
Jiang Shuiyun was unaware of Yi Jinbai's wild thoughts. She just looked up at the dripping IV drip and finally watched the last drop fall before a nurse came and removed the needle.
After taking Yi Jinbai's medicine and carefully asking about the precautions, Jiang Shuiyun returned to Yi Jinbai's side and said, "We can go home now. Come on, I'll carry you."
"You came behind my back?"
Yi Jinbai then noticed that the only dry part of Jiang Shuiyun's body was her back.
"We couldn't get a taxi, but luckily it's not far. Come on, let's go home."
Jiang Shuiyun's physique was also half of what it used to be, and her physical strength was still quite good. Although she was a bit tired, it wasn't a big problem.
"Myself..."
