Chapter 137 Side Story: The Real World (2)

Before coming here, Wen Li had heard that the doctors here were very handsome.

He's devastatingly handsome, good enough to debut as a celebrity.

but!

The person inside was clearly Bai Yanci.

No, strictly speaking, that face belongs to Bai Yanci.

Wen Li stood frozen in place. When the other person didn't see her sit down for a long time, they finally looked up and looked at her.

"Please come in," the doctor said to her.

Polite yet distant, with a businesslike attitude.

Wen Li snapped out of her daze, clutching her report, and sat down opposite Bai Yanci.

She stared intently at her face, unable to control her emotions.

Bai Yanci...

Apart from their eye color and hair length being different, their facial features and expressions are exactly the same.

With pale, cool skin, short black hair, and delicate, striking features, she was exceptionally attractive.

At this moment, he was wearing a white lab coat with a neat and tidy collar, and a pair of black-rimmed glasses perched on his nose, making him look capable and ascetic.

Those alluring eyes hidden behind the glasses, which used to gaze at her with such intensity that they seemed to draw out threads, were now distant and indifferent, devoid of any warmth, as if they were looking at a stranger.

That's right, they were just strangers.

At least for now, they are strangers.

Wen Li was unable to accept this contrast for a moment, and her emotions surged up so intensely that they almost overflowed from her eyes.

She wasn't good at hiding her emotions, and Bai Yanci noticed all her changes, leaving him completely bewildered.

Why was she looking at me like that? It was so strange.

Bai Yanci ignored Wen Li's change in expression and reminded her, "Let me see the report."

Wen Li was brought back to her senses by his voice and realized that her behavior just now was very inappropriate.

She tried to control her emotions and then handed the report to Bai Yanci.

After receiving the report, Bai Yanci calmly flipped through it.

He could feel Wen Li staring at him, but he didn't say anything.

Only after turning the last page did Bai Yanci straighten his expression and look up.

Looking up, Bai Yanci clearly saw Wen Li's moist eyes.

She gazed at him, as if she were looking at someone else through him.

It felt somewhat familiar, but mostly unfamiliar.

This feeling was so strange that Bai Yanci subconsciously resisted it and frowned.

“Miss Wen,” Bai Yanci’s clear voice echoed in the room.

Wen Li blinked quickly, avoiding Bai Yanci's gaze.

“Yes, please go ahead,” Wen Li said stiffly.

Bai Yanci said, "I've read your report. There aren't any major problems; all your health indicators are normal. But have you been staying up late a lot lately?"

Wen Li nodded.

Bai Yanci said, "Staying up late often is bad for your health; you need to change this habit."

Wen Li: "Okay."

Bai Yanci returned the report to Wen Li, giving her a very slight and polite smile.

They were being so polite that it was all done in a businesslike manner, without any personal feelings involved.

“Then there’s nothing to worry about,” Bai Yanci said.

Wen Li blankly accepted the report he handed her, realizing that she could leave.

"Can I leave now?" Wen Li asked.

Bai Yanci nodded.

"Oh."

Wen Li responded and slowly stood up.

She was hoping for something, but even as she reached the door, the man behind her remained completely still.

Wen Li's heart sank, and a sense of regret spread through her.

She suddenly felt unwilling to leave like this.

Is it fate that brought her back to this person who looks so much like Bai Yanci? Is it hinting at something?

Wen Li couldn't help but speculate.

Wen Li paused as she pulled the doorknob, then quickly turned around and stood in front of the man.

Bai Yanci was replying to messages on his phone when he was suddenly seen walking over. He paused for a moment and asked, "Is there anything else?"

Wen Li met his gaze, but the words she wanted to say stuck in her throat.

"I..." She moved her lips, but under Bai Yanci's gaze, she couldn't utter another word for a long time.

Bai Yanci put down his phone and looked at her with a puzzled expression: "Is there still something wrong?"

Wen Li shook her head stiffly, took a deep breath, and mustered her courage to ask, "Could I add your contact information?"

At this moment, Wen Li had only one thought in her mind: add her contact information first, and deal with the rest later.

She can't miss this opportunity!
Bai Yanci was probably used to patients suddenly asking for his contact information. His expression remained unchanged, but a hint of realization flashed in his eyes.

He chuckled and shook his head, rejecting the offer without hesitation: "I'm married."

marry!?
Wen Li's head buzzed—

Marriage?
Is he already married?
Well... it's really not a good idea for her to keep asking him for his contact information.

Wen Li left the consultation room in a daze, and even when she reached the hospital entrance, she still hadn't recovered from the shock she had just experienced.

So he probably isn't Bai Yanci... Wen Li thought.

She belatedly took out her phone, opened her appointment information, and saw that the doctor's surname was Zhou.

Although the two look alike, he is not Bai Yanci.

No.

Not to mention that they're already married.

Having figured this out, Wen Li collected her thoughts and took a taxi back to her hotel.

She was too lazy to go shopping, so she opened her food delivery app and prepared to order takeout.

As soon as Wen Li opened the app, she saw a familiar face.

Pei Yu.

Or perhaps, it should be Jasper.

Wen Li had no idea when he became the spokesperson for this food delivery app.

After opening the app, his enlarged handsome face appeared on the phone screen.

Wen Li was taken aback when she suddenly saw that familiar face.

I also remembered the private message I sent him yesterday.

Wen Li didn't expect to receive a reply from the other party.

However, before seeing the specific situation, I still held onto a sliver of hope.

She hoped he would see her message and reply.

After quickly ordering takeout, Wen Li exited the app and opened the familiar black platform.

The account currently in use is Wen Li's private account.

I don't usually receive any messages, not even likes.

After entering the software, a red dot appeared in the information section.

Wen Li's heart pounded, thinking she had received a reply from Pei Yu, and she excitedly clicked on it—

It was indeed Pei Yu's reply, but it was just an automated reply.

"..."

Frustrated, Wen Li put away her phone and turned her attention back to short videos, trying to numb herself with them.

She was just being delusional.

With so many people messaging him every day, how could he possibly notice her among all the private messages? Wen Li reminded herself that she should stay clear-headed.

This is the real world, not the beast world!
They were not her beastly husbands, but merely strangers who were out of reach!
In this world, Pei Yu is a star admired by all. But she is just an ordinary, unremarkable person.

Their worlds cannot interact; apart from the internet, they will never have any contact.

Wen Li suppressed her chaotic emotions and continued scrolling through the short videos.

However, big data seems to have discovered her special attention to Jasper and started pushing a lot of videos about him to her.

Seeing that face so similar to Pei Yu's, Wen Li became increasingly depressed.

I simply quit the software.

Just then, a message popped up on WeChat.

Wen Li opened the message and saw that it was from her childhood friend.

Wen Li and her childhood friend Rong Qi have known each other for over twenty years, and they now live in the same city.

Rong Qi is still pursuing her master's degree, while Wen Li has already started working.

A while ago, Wen Li finally had some free time and planned to ask Rong Qi out, but unfortunately Rong Qi didn't have time; she had been busy with experiments lately.

This time, Rong Qi's experiment finally yielded results.

It was her turn to ask Wen Li if she was free.

Wen Li has plenty of time now!

She made a voice call to Rong Qi directly, and the call was answered quickly.

"Xiao Li, you resigned?" Rong Qi asked.

Wen Li said, "Yes, I just resigned yesterday."

Rong Qi: "No wonder you posted that on your WeChat Moments."

Long ago, Wen Li complained to Rong Qi about her current job, saying she wanted to quit, but she didn't have the courage.

Wen Li rarely posts on WeChat Moments, but yesterday Rong Qi suddenly saw the first post she made, so she knew that Wen Li had most likely resigned.

"Congratulations, you're finally free from suffering," Rong Qi said with a smile.

Wen Li smiled too.

Rong Qi then asked, "So, you haven't had anything to do lately?"

Wen Li said, "Yes, I've been quite free lately. How about we go out for a meal?"

“Okay, I’m free tomorrow.” Rong Qi yawned. “The experiment is finally showing promise. What would you like to eat? It’s on me.”

"Okay." Wen Li thought for a moment and said, "How about we eat at your school? Didn't you say there are a lot of good restaurants there?"

Not only that, there are also many handsome guys at Rongqi's school!
Wen Li had wanted to visit Rong Qi's school for a long time, but she never had the time. Now that she finally had the opportunity, she was determined to seize it.

“Okay,” Rong Qi agreed readily. “Then dress up nicely tomorrow, maybe you’ll attract some suitors.”

Wen Li smiled and agreed.

"Also, didn't I tell you the other day that a super handsome professor came to our school? I ran into him yesterday and even took a picture with him."

"He's giving a lecture at school tomorrow, do you want to go check it out?"

Wen Li had heard Rong Qi mention this professor a long time ago; he was said to be very handsome, extremely handsome, and also a very nice person, with many students liking him.

Wen Li doesn't know what the person actually looks like.

"Just how handsome is he?" Wen Li asked. "Send me a picture."

"Okay, I'll send it to you in a bit."

The two chatted about their recent situations before hanging up.

Wen Li waited for a while, but Rong Qi didn't send any photos.

When I asked, she said she was looking for it.

Seeing that it was still early and the sun was still shining outside, Wen Li simply drew the curtains and took a nap.

I woke up in the afternoon.

Wen Li struggled to get out of bed, intending to go to the nearby shopping mall to buy some clothes.

She originally bought all her clothes online and wore them repeatedly for over a year.

After moving, Wen Li threw away everything except two everyday clothes.

While I'm still good-looking, have a great figure, and am rich, of course I should get myself some nice clothes to wear.

Wen Li took a taxi to a nearby large shopping mall, ate something simple, and then went straight to the clothing store.

Wen Li didn't even look at the brand; she just thought the style of the clothes was pretty good and went straight in.

She's practically a different person now; her looks, figure, and charisma are all top-notch, and she immediately attracted the attention of the staff as soon as she entered the store.

The female shop assistant closest to Wen Li quickly came forward, her eyes fixed on Wen Li's face.

My goodness, a beauty has come into the store!
Wen Li wasn't good at picking clothes; she knew her fashion sense was average, so she entrusted the task of styling her outfits to the shop assistant.

The sales assistant, all smiles, brought out two of the latest seasonal dresses.

Wen Li tried them all on, and they all looked pretty good, so she went straight to pay.

"You walk slowly~"

The shop assistant politely escorted Wen Li to the door.

Wen Li took the bag from her, smiled at her, and said, "Thank you, I'll be going now."

The shop assistant blushed and nodded blankly.

Wen Li wasn't used to the power of her good looks, and she laughed without restraint. Seeing the shop assistant's behavior made her feel a little uncomfortable.

He picked up his things and left quickly.

The shop assistant, who had been standing still, watched her figure disappear in a daze. After coming to his senses, he pinched himself hard.

Depend on!
I forgot to take a picture with her!
She got a great deal to take a photo with such a beautiful girl!

Maybe they're some kind of celebrity or internet influencer.

The shop assistant returned to the store with regret, turning back every few steps, gazing longingly in the direction where Wen Li had disappeared.

Wen Li took the stairs to the first floor.

She attracted a lot of attention along the way, making it hard for Wen Li to ignore her.

There's a famous cake shop on the first floor of this mall, and Wen Li plans to buy some cakes before heading back.

As soon as I entered the store, I saw a familiar figure.

The other person's physique was exceptionally good, making them stand out from the crowd in the entire cake shop.

More importantly, his face looks exactly like Xin Yuan's.

Wen Li was stunned once again.

After returning from the Beast World, Wen Li felt that her life trajectory had become distorted.

In the past, she would never have met so many handsome men.

Now, it still happens that you can touch several at once.

It's like a dream.

More importantly, these handsome men look exactly like her beastmen husbands from the beast world!

First it was Pei Yu, then Bai Yanci, and now it's Xin Yuan.

It's hard for Wen Li not to think about it.

Two boys were gathered around "Xin Yuan".

One of them noticed Wen Li's gaze and nudged Xin Yuan with his elbow.

"Ah Yuan, there's a beautiful woman looking at you."

Upon hearing this, Xin Yuan finally shifted his gaze from the cake in front of him to Wen Li.

Upon seeing this, Xin Yuan was taken aback.

A strong sense of familiarity washed over him, engulfing Xin Yuan in an instant.

But he was absolutely certain that he had never seen this woman before.

Xin Yuan subconsciously frowned, looked away, and focused his attention back on the cake in front of him.

Her friend beside her was exasperated, "What a stunning beauty!"

Xin Yuan calmly asked, "So?"

Friend: "Could you get my contact information for me? They'll definitely give it to you when you go there."

Xin Yuan lifted her eyelids, glanced at him, and uttered two words:
"No."
