Chapter 42 Real World 4
I opened my eyes, rolled around in bed until I couldn't stand it anymore, then got out of bed to wash up and eat. Then I took out the TV series I was adapting and fast-forwarded through it. I also looked at the parts I had already adapted. Hmm... how should I put it? I guess I should rewrite it.
Everything was planned out. She decided to go out shopping and have some fun. After all, she had suffered too much these past few months. She figured she could learn anything she needed to learn in another world. Compared to reality, it was much easier to spend a lifetime learning a skill in another world.
She rode her electric scooter out, bought some autumn clothes, had a spicy crab dinner, and bought some braised meats, snacks, and beer before returning home. That evening, she watched two classic films starring Leslie Cheung while eating and drinking. Leslie Cheung was probably her only idol, but the time she spent living in the same timeline as him wasn't as long as the time she spent missing him. She wished that one day she could travel to a parallel world of Hong Kong, meet Leslie Cheung, and prevent the tragedy from happening, which would at least make up for some of the regret in her heart.
Perhaps because of the alcohol, Liu Yuxi was a bit sentimental. She had been cheerful during the day, but now seeing her brother made her feel a little overwhelmed. "Never mind, I'll just wash up and go to bed."
The next day was just another ordinary working day. The only difference was that Liu Yuxi was writing her new book with incredible ease. No writer's block, no inability to express herself clearly. In one day, she wrote 1.6 words. After all, she was typing on her phone, and she also had to follow up with clients. That was already a lot, wasn't it?
In the evening, as usual, it was time for her live stream. However, tonight she sang mostly Leslie Cheung's songs. You see, adults don't process their emotions quickly; they're just sometimes hidden, but they'll sneak out at the first opportunity. Viewers could tell Liu Yuxi was in low spirits, and many of them were also fans of Leslie Cheung. Now, she'd not only been emotional herself, but she'd also made some of her viewers feel emotional. This wouldn't do. One person quietly reminiscing is fine, but a bunch of people venting their emotions here can easily cause trouble. So she quickly ended the stream. I bet many people will be relying on alcohol to fall asleep tonight.
Now that Liu Yuxi is financially secure, she's thinking of taking a trip to Hong Kong to see where her brother used to live, work, and leave. She's also figuring out how to take leave. Although her company pays social security, if she takes three consecutive days off in a month, they deduct from her monthly performance bonus, 5% for each extra day, up to a maximum of 30%. If she takes more than five days off, she has to pay her own social security for the month. This is definitely unreasonable, but jobs are hard to find these days, and generally, she doesn't need to take such long leave.
It's December now. Since they don't have a base salary, they get four days off each month and two days off in addition to that. They won't take any leave this month, but will take two days off at the end of the month. Then they'll definitely get a day off for New Year's Day on January 1st, and then take one more day off for January. That's a total of four days. It's convenient to go to Hong Kong now, and the round-trip flights are time-saving and hassle-free. Four days is enough for her to explore Hong Kong.
I acted immediately, notified the store manager in advance, and then continued working, writing, and live streaming. During my break, I bought a new large suitcase, a few pairs of sneakers, and a few sets of casual, plain-colored clothes.
After checking in on the afternoon of December 29th, I left early, went home to get my prepared suitcase, and headed straight to the airport. I arrived at the Hong Kong hotel at 12 pm. Over the next few days, with the help of a local guide I had arranged in advance, I retraced my brother's growth path.
But after the tour, she felt even worse. Liu Yuxi's biggest regret was not being able to see her brother's concert live before he passed away. After all, she was too young at the time, and when she became a fan of him, she didn't have the financial means to support him. By the time she had the means, there was nowhere to spend her money.
Having rarely witnessed such intense emotional fluctuations from Liu Yuxi, Xiao Liu proactively offered: "Host, why don't you try time-traveling here? You might very well encounter a parallel universe." "Really?" Liu Yuxi immediately perked up. "It's not 6%, but when we were created, we were programmed that if the host didn't have a specific intention when time-traveling, we would first travel forward along the timeline, and then randomly travel to another world once the host had adapted. However, if the host had a specific intention, the system would select the world most suitable for the host's intention for the host to travel to. Like the last world, even if the host didn't notify the country beforehand, the major plot wouldn't have had much impact on the host. As long as the host was willing, they could still continue studying and writing. So, now that the host's obsession is so deep, if the host chooses to time-travel here, it's almost certain that the host will travel to a parallel world."
"Great, Little Six, wait while I gather some information." Since it's possible I really will transmigrate to a world where my older brother exists, I need to find out everything about him in this world, just in case!
Her feelings for her brother are special compared to other celebrities. Her longing for him is simply a regret over the premature loss of something beautiful. She doesn't know as much about her brother's career path as other fans, so she needs to be fully prepared. If things really happen, she will definitely help her brother become famous sooner, protect him, prevent him from becoming depressed, and keep him safe from any mishaps. Don't underestimate the power of a butterfly's wings; she will definitely change everything.
With money paving the way, Liu Yuxi gathered all the information available on the market in a single day. She also collected two copies of all the tapes, DVDs, and videotapes her brother had been involved in, storing them all in her spatial dimension. She would have plenty of time to examine them in detail in the parallel world. This was the first time Liu Yuxi felt pressured about transmigrating. Before, she only needed to worry about herself, but now she had set goals for herself before even arriving in the world. She didn't know what her identity would be like after transmigrating. If she was powerless and without influence, she would have to work hard first, instantly feeling immense pressure.
But since she'd made up her mind, no matter what she thought, she'd just go and see what happened. What if she was dressed as a rich heiress or a mafia boss? That would save her a lot of trouble. After all, she wasn't going there to chase after celebrities or fall in love; she was just going to stop her brother from dying young.
Once she figured it out, Liu Yuxi lay on the hotel bed and called out to Xiao Liu. Xiao Liu knew what she meant and instantly sent her to a parallel world.
