The moment Li Xiangru's dagger pierced her heart, Li Yue Shu desperately wanted to curse out loud.
But before she could utter a word, she suddenly felt a strong, familiar pull.
Great, she was going to dream again!
As expected, the moment Li Yue Shu opened her eyes, she found herself in a very modern room.
This room was no different from countless ordinary rooms.
However, the most striking features were the large screen computer on the desk and the gleaming mechanical keyboard.
Where was this place?
Li Yue Shu had never been here before, and everything around her was unfamiliar.
As she was pondering, the sound of a flushing toilet echoed.
Li Yue Shu instinctively turned her head and saw a door beside her open, and a woman walked out.
The woman's cheeks had a slight baby fat, she was wearing a fluffy Totoro pajama set, her hair was tied in a bun, she wore silver titanium frame glasses, and she was still shaking the water off her hands.
"Holy crap!"
The woman seemed surprised that someone had suddenly appeared in the room while she was just using the toilet, and she was wearing ancient clothing! And a pregnant woman at that!
Suddenly, the woman seemed to realize something. She quickly ran to the computer, opened a webpage, and then frantically typed on the keyboard.
Li Yue Shu walked over curiously.
When she saw the content displayed on the computer, her eyes widened in surprise.
The text on the computer was actually about her being assassinated by Li Xiangru just now!
[...He Xiao Yu's face was cold, her soft and cute face filled with murderous intent.
She grabbed a young medicine boy from the Heng De Pharmacy beside her and said in a chilling tone, "Find someone to save that woman. She absolutely cannot die."
She would make this woman understand what it meant to be better off dead!]
The text stopped here, with only the words "To be continued" marked below.
Li Yue Shu was shocked and a wild, audacious guess suddenly arose in her mind.
The woman had also finished reading all the text and seemed to understand the situation.
She turned to look at Li Yue Shu, straightened her Totoro pajamas, and said, "Let me introduce myself. My pen name is Luo Yu Shi. What you call 'the plot' is also, in a way, the Heavenly Dao of that world."
Li Yue Shu's expression was calm. She hadn't expected her guess to be correct.
She narrowed her eyes and asked, "The matter of Li Xiangru assassinating me, was that your arrangement?"
The intense killing intent was so palpable that it seemed to become substantial, scaring Luo Yu Shi into plonking down onto the chair.
"That has nothing to do with me!" Luo Yu Shi quickly waved her hands. "I just accelerated the development of the plot. I didn't expect Li Xiangru to resort to this."
Li Yue Shu listened to her words, her thoughts stirring. "Accelerated plot? What do you mean?"
Luo Yu Shi sat on the chair, grabbed a plush panda from the side, hugged it, and stared at Li Yue Shu vigilantly.
"Didn't you feel that everything developed so quickly when you returned from Qing Yan Country three years ago?"
Hearing her say that, Li Yue Shu thought about it. It did seem so.
To be precise, ever since she dreamed of Xiao Yu blowing up the organization, everything had been developing very rapidly. The good things happening around her could be said to be one after another.
"Was that your arrangement?" Li Yue Shu's eyes narrowed. "Are you trying to do what you did at Da Geng Mountain again?"
"Don't misunderstand, don't misunderstand, I didn't intend to harm you!" Luo Yu Shi waved her hands in fright. "The rapid development of the plot was my arrangement, but it wasn't directed at you."
Li Yue Shu said nothing, just looked at the person in front of her expressionlessly.
She realized this author seemed to be very afraid of her?
Although Luo Yu Shi didn't know Li Yue Shu inside and out, she still knew quite a bit. She quickly explained, "Well... this book was written to be over 800,000 characters, but the editor said the data wasn't good, so they mandated that I finish it within 30,000 to 40,000 characters."
"But there were too many foreshadowed elements earlier. To avoid a rushed ending, I had to speed things up."
This reason was something Li Yue Shu hadn't expected.
She had always thought that authors wrote whatever they pleased.
Li Yue Shu then thought of another question. "So, does that mean I'm actually a person from the book's world, a character you created?"
If that were the case, then this woman in front of her must be her biological mother?
"No, no, no, you have nothing to do with me." Luo Yu Shi repeatedly waved her hands, as if afraid that if she spoke too slowly, she would be dealt with by her.
