Transmigration: Experiencing Life's End - Dying Peacefully in One's Sleep
Chapter 3 Ode to Joy 2
When I got into the elevator that day, I noticed a man pressing the button for the 22nd floor.
He was dressed in a casual suit, not very tall, and looked to be around forty years old. He had a refined and elegant appearance and went to the twenty-second floor. It seems that he must be Qi Dian, Andy's online friend, and he must have come to see Andy.
When they reached the 22nd floor, they were indeed heading towards 2201. They wondered how far things had progressed with Andy. Back in 2202, Sister Fan wasn't there; she must have gone on a date. They wondered when Guan Guan would get home.
I continued my daily commute, and wrote novels after get off work. After several months, my monthly income, including my salary, finally exceeded 10,000 yuan, and I could save a few thousand yuan each month.
Think about how novels describe time travel involving hundreds of thousands or even tens of millions of dollars. It's not that easy. I'm just an ordinary person. Without a cheat code like hydrogen gold, I wouldn't even dare to dream of it. It might be possible after experiencing more worlds, learning more, and collecting more things.
I had a seven-day National Day holiday, so I went home to see my parents. Even if they had changed since I last saw them, they would feel that their daughter had grown up and gone out to work.
When Qiu Yingying got home and opened the door, it was almost dinnertime. Qiu's mother came out of the kitchen with dishes and saw Qiu Yingying: "Yingying, you're back! Why didn't you tell me beforehand? I could have had your dad pick you up and I could have prepared some of your favorite dishes. Have you eaten yet?"
Qiu Yingying stepped forward with a smile: "Mom, it's been a long time. Dad has to go to work and I didn't want him to go through the trouble of making a special trip. I haven't eaten yet, so I thought I'd come back and have something to eat with you. You don't need to prepare anything special for me."
When Qiu's father heard the noise, he came out with a happy look on his face: "Yingying is back! How many days off have you been on? I thought you weren't coming back. I didn't hear you say anything. Are you hungry? Come and wash your hands and eat."
As soon as I got back, I heard my parents' concern, and I felt a warm feeling flowing through my heart. In the original world, when my father was still alive, I also had a happy family. But after my father got sick and passed away, everything changed. Things were no longer the same. At first, I felt lost, then numb, and later indifferent and detached.
Qiu Yingying, fighting back tears, hugged her mother and said sweetly, "Mom and Dad, I just wanted to give you a surprise, so I didn't tell you when I was coming back. See how happy you are now?"
With a big smile, Qiu's mother patted Qiu Yingying's head, and Qiu's father nodded repeatedly, saying, "Yes, yes, we are so happy that Yingying is back."
Aunt Qiu: "She's so grown up and still acts like a child with her mother."
Qiu Yingying: "No matter how old you are, you're still your mother's daughter, and you can still act cute."
Qiu's mother: "Okay, okay." After chatting for a while, Qiu's parents went into the kitchen to prepare to cook a couple more dishes. Qiu Yingying went back to her room to put down her things, tidy up, and get ready to eat.
After dinner, Qiu's parents went to work, and Qiu Yingying stayed home alone to cultivate. With continuous cultivation, her spiritual power improved a little, but she still couldn't see through walls to her surroundings, nor did she have any other abilities. She only improved her memory. The world without spiritual power is just slower, I guess.
However, it felt pretty good; something was better than nothing. With the help of the spiritual spring water and the cultivation of the Soul Refining Technique, my whole being underwent some changes. I felt my temperament was getting better and better, with a sense of purity. By expelling the turbid energy from my body and cultivating my soul to absorb innate energy, I became more and more spiritual.
Thinking about the side quest of taking good care of his parents, he poured the spiritual spring water into the kettle at home, and made sure his parents drank more spiritual spring water every time he came back to improve their health.
After staying at home for a few days, Qiu's parents learned about Qiu Yingying's work and were happy for her. Their daughter had grown up, settled down in a big city, and become more mature, which put their minds at ease. Parents just hope their child can have a better life, and of course, they also started to care about her marriage.
News spreads quickly in this small county town. When people saw that Qiu Yingying had returned from the big city, looking more beautiful and of a suitable age, many neighbors started asking Qiu's mother if Qiu Yingying had found a boyfriend.
When Qiu Yingying's parents talked to her about it, she said it was up to fate and there was no rush. So her parents didn't say much, only that she could find a partner.
Back in Shanghai, Sister Fan was also back. While waiting for the elevator, she saw Guan Guan walking towards her.
Wearing a long, light blue trench coat, she appeared tall and slender with a slim waist and long legs. Her features were delicate and elegant, giving her a dignified air. She had fair skin and long, straight black hair, exuding an artistic vibe. Wearing glasses, she radiated a scholarly and approachable aura, making it easy to feel calm when looking at her.
Qiu Yingying: "Guan Guan, you're here too. Did you have fun at home?"
Guan Juer frowned and said, "Everything else is fine, it's just that my mom made me go on a blind date."
Qiu Yingying laughed and said, "Haha, it seems we can't escape the pressure from our elders to get married. Although I didn't go on any blind dates, I was still being urged. It seems we're in the same boat."
“Yes, blind dates often involve bringing parents. Eating with a bunch of strangers can be a bit awkward,” Guan Juer replied.
Qiu Yingying smiled and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Xiao Guan Guan."
When we reached the twenty-second floor, Sister Fan was already inside.
Fan Shengmei beamed, "Welcome back, Little Earthworm, Guan Guan, have you eaten? I'll make you some instant noodles."
Qiu Yingying: "Xiao Mei, give me a bowl of braised beef noodles."
Guan Juer: "Then give me a bowl of spicy beef noodles."
Fan Shengmei: No problem
After eating noodles and chatting for a while, we washed up and went back to our rooms. We didn't have to work tomorrow, so we could rest for another day. I wrote a little more of my novel that night. When inspiration struck, I wrote until 12:30 before going to sleep. I slept until 10 a.m. the next day, feeling refreshed. Sleeping in is so comfortable.
The three of them went out for lunch together and found a restaurant with a decent atmosphere. They ate and chatted, and halfway through, they wanted to go to the restroom. When they stood up and turned around, they didn't notice and bumped into someone coming from behind.
Bang!
Qiu Yingying felt a slight pain in her arm and was about to fall to the ground due to inertia when a pair of hands reached out and steadily supported her. She could feel that the arms were very strong.
"Are you alright?" A clear, slightly warm voice came from my ear.
After straightening up and regaining his balance, he looked at the person who had come in. The person was wearing a casual suit and was very tall, probably over 1.85 meters. He had three-dimensional features, a high nose bridge, and a well-defined face. His expression was indifferent, giving people a cool feeling. He took a breath and said in a calm and natural tone, "It's nothing, thank you. I'm sorry for just now, I didn't see anyone behind me."
"It's nothing, I just didn't notice. I'm glad you're alright," the man said calmly.
Sister Fan and Guan Guan stood up and asked with concern, "Yingying, are you alright?"
"It's alright," Qiu Yingying comforted her.
"Then I'll be going now," the man said.
"Ok"
After the man left, Qiu Yingying went to the restroom and came back to sit down.
Fan Shengmei gossiped, "Little Earthworm, do you know that guy from earlier? He was tall and quite handsome!"
Qiu Yingying: "I don't know him, I've never seen him before, but he's quite handsome."
Guan Juer: "Yes, but she seems to talk a little."
Qiu Yingying: "Never mind, I don't know them anyway." She then skipped the topic, finished her meal, and went home.
I returned to writing Ode to Joy and soon it was time to go back to work. My daily routine resumed. As the months went by, my income from writing novels gradually increased, but it was also quite taxing on my eyes and time. I thought that if I switched to a larger company, the salary might be higher. I could try submitting my resume on recruitment apps and see what happens when I hear back.
After returning from a trip to a private resort, Sister Fan and Wang Baichuan were having a falling out. Recently, Sister Fan seemed restless whenever she was seen, but she started to regain her spirits after returning from a cocktail party with Andy.
