I Have Yet to Become a Doll Today - Chapter 397:

Chapter 397: Chapter 397 Du Lai has arrived

Bang, bang, bang

The standoff was interrupted by the knocking on the door.

Teacher Cheng turned to open the door.

Outside stood a young boy in a grey hoodie. He pulled down the wide hood connected to his collar, revealing a face with a smile, his two prominent front canines making a strong impression.

“I am Du Lai, is Bai Youwei here?”

Teacher Cheng was taken aback, turning his head towards the room, “Weiwei… someone is looking for you.”

Bai Youwei had already heard, without needing Teacher Cheng to say it. She lifted her tied hands, and forcefully hammered Shen Mo!

“Quickly untie me!”

A passing stranger seeing this would misconstrue it!

It was a loose knot. Shen Mo pinched one end, pulling lightly, and it fell apart instantly.

Bai Youwei’s hands were finally free. She didn’t have nails scratch him with, so she angrily pinched the flesh on his arm!

Shen Mo stopped her hand and whispered a warning: “Is there no end to this?! If you continue, I will bind your entire body tonight!”

Bai Youwei’s face reddened, she angrily pinched him again, “Pervert!”

Shen Mo paused, in what way was he a pervert?

At the door, Du Lai had already walked in, an innocent smile on his face.

“Long time no see, Miss Bai~” He walked up to Bai Youwei and Shen Mo, looking them over. “I heard you escaped from the 24th game, I have yet to congratulate you on acquiring another tool.”

Bai Youwei looked at him disdainfully: “Others congratulate me on getting my life back, you congratulate me on getting another tool. Is my life not worth your congratulations? Can’t you be a bit more humane?”

Du Lai:

He was silenced, his smile faltered, “…Seems like you are not in a good mood today.”

“Yes, so you better not haggle with me.” Bai Youwei bluntly stated, “Want to trade tools, bring out ten puzzle pieces! One piece less and it is no deal~”

For a long time Du Lai has been coveting her Substitute Doll. Bai Youwei couldn’t think of a second reason he would come to find her.

“Of course, fair and square, I like this kind of transaction.” Du Lai chuckled, staring into Bai Youwei’s eyes. “But how can I be sure that the Substitute Doll is still with you? Maybe…you already used it in the game?”

Bai Youwei furrowed her brows slightly, was silent for two seconds, then called out, “Xiaoxin, bring my bag over!”

Pan Xiaoxin was startled, he ran into the bedroom and soon came out holding a bulging canvas bag, passing it to Bai Youwei–

Du Lai’s gaze heated up a few degrees, watching the bag closely.

Meanwhile, Bai Youwei’s action was quite rough. She unzipped the canvas bag, directly turned it 90 degrees upside down, and the contents inside clattered onto the couch!

The Substitute Doll was among them.

She picked up the doll and placed it on the coffee table. Her actions were swift and decisive, showing no sign of reluctance to part with the tool.

“Here, you can check the merchandise.” Bai Youwei stated.

Her attitude was fearless and nonchalant, not worried at all about the chance of Du Lai taking the item and running off.

Du Lai inevitably grew more cautious.

He surveyed the people in the room once again, Tan Xiao, Teacher Cheng, Pan Xiaoxin, and… Shen Mo, who was sitting next to Bai Youwei.

Then he reached out his hand, cautiously touching the doll on the coffee table.

[Substitute Doll: Can act as a second body for the user, withstand all damage within 36 hours until completely destroyed.]

That’s right!

Exactly the same as what Bai Youwei had written on the notice!

This was what he wanted!

Du Lai’s heart was pounding, he couldn’t help but want to take the doll into his arms right away, his fingertips trembling slightly.
