Chapter 97

In her dream, she seemed to have detached herself from this world, like a wandering, lonely soul. She wanted to save them, but in the end, she was powerless and could only return to her original world.

The plot returned to normal; the villains remained villains, and those who deserved to die all died. As a wandering soul, she could only watch helplessly as they walked towards their deaths one by one.

When she woke up the next day, she was still stunned. The dream felt so real. She looked around again and wondered if she had been transported back to her original world.

She only realized she was still in the world of the novel when she heard Jiang Zhuxin and the others' voices downstairs.

That dream felt so real. Does that mean the ending can't be changed?

She rubbed her temples, looking exhausted, and walked downstairs, her mind still gripped by yesterday's dream.

For some reason, she had a strange hope in her heart; she felt that the story could never end like this.

These great traitors shouldn't end up like this. She lowered her gaze and made a silent decision: no matter what, she would not let these great traitors continue to be emotionless NPCs.

They are living, breathing people, and they deserve to have their own brilliant, vibrant, and fulfilling lives. They are never anyone's stepping stones, nor are they mindless cannon fodder in anyone's story.

A note from the author:

Take a breath of good luck, get ashore! You'll only know how great it feels after you're ashore (I'm speaking from personal experience; although I sometimes have to work overtime, the sense of happiness is much higher than in a private company).

Chapter 97

◎You fool me, I fool you; getting freebies is the real business.◎

"Sister-in-law! Come down for dinner quickly. After dinner, the director said he'll take us to pick melons."

While Song Shiwei was lost in thought, Jiang Zhuxin came running up to her side with a lively and cheerful expression.

Song Shiwei, not very interested, and his eyes showed a deep weariness.

Jiang Zhuxin skipped a beat when she saw her. "Sister-in-law, what's wrong? Did something happen? Did you and my brother have a fight? Tell me and I'll go deal with him."

Jiang Zhuxin to herself, "I'm ready to charge forward and help Song Shiwei in the fight."

Jiang Zhuxin's actions stirred up Song Shiwei's emotions even more.

This dream felt so real; their fates were all the same: to die without a proper burial.

Song Shiwei couldn't believe that such a vibrant person would die like that.

This was something she couldn't accept no matter what; she had something on her mind, so she couldn't be happy no matter what.

She gave a slight smile, her pale face expressionless. "It's alright, Zhuxin. I just didn't sleep well last night."

Song Shiwei's words made Jiang Zhuxin stop what she was doing, and she looked at her with suspicion, "Really?"

Song Shiwei nodded. "Of course it's true. Would I lie to you?"

"Besides, I'm not one to keep secrets. If I lied to you, I'd be exposed."

After she finished speaking, Jiang Zhuxin still looked at her with some suspicion, feeling that Song Shiwei was acting a bit strange today.

She pricked up her ears, trying to understand her sister-in-law's true feelings, but Song Shiwei seemed to have nothing on her mind and remained very calm on the surface.

Could it be that my sister-in-law ate too much melon yesterday and didn't get enough sleep?

Although this claim is quite outrageous, it's nothing new to Jiang Zhuxin.

After all, as someone who enjoys gossip, she stayed up surfing the internet until two or three in the morning before finally falling asleep to such a juicy story.

My sister-in-law was so excited she couldn't sleep, which is absurd, but there's some truth to it.

She sighed deeply, then moved closer to Song Shiwei and said cautiously, "Sister-in-law, why don't you take a day off today? I'll talk to the director later."

Song Shiwei felt as if she were facing a formidable enemy. [Does Jiang Zhuxin want me dead?! Everyone else is working, and I'm the only one resting. I'll be scolded to death.]

Jiang Zhuxin:?

Is it that serious?

She just wanted her sister-in-law to get some rest; there shouldn't be such serious consequences, right?

But then she thought again, and realized that her sister-in-law's concerns weren't entirely unfounded.

These netizens online are like people with cerebellar atrophy; they just vent their dark thoughts online every day.

If she gets the chance to do something, she can make a huge fuss about it.

At this critical juncture, her sister-in-law is taking a day off instead of going out to work. Who knows what these netizens will say about her?

She might even be verbally attacked by netizens who would tell her to get off the show as her sister-in-law.

Or should we tell her sister-in-law to get out of the entertainment industry? Or that her sister-in-law is simply not worthy—these are all mild criticisms.

During the years when she was heavily targeted online, some netizens even photoshopped her portrait to look like a funeral portrait, while others made extreme comments such as running her over with a car or throwing concentrated sulfuric acid in her face.

Although netizens are much more rational now, and her sister-in-law has a large following online, she still thinks it's best to be careful, otherwise these people might really have no bottom line when they go crazy.

Judging from these recent incidents of celebrities going crazy, a significant portion of their fans are also a bunch of lunatics.

Especially since today's broadcast is live, they'd better be careful.

"Hey, sister-in-law, if you feel unwell later, you must tell me, and I'll take you to rest." Jiang Zhuxin nodded and then said to Song Shiwei.

Hearing Jiang Zhuxin say that Song Shiwei feel even worse. Although Jiang Zhuxin was a bit willful and had a bit of a spoiled princess temper, she really didn't deserve to die.

She clenched her fists tightly, her eyes gradually turning fierce.

If this is their fate, then she will fight against it.

My fate is in my own hands, not in the heavens; I take life and death lightly; if you disagree, then fight me.

If fate deceives you, don't be sad or upset. Just confront it and teach it a lesson.
