Chapter 114 Real World 11
Upon opening her eyes, Liu Yuxi jumped out of bed, washed up, and began to observe the arrangement of the furniture and decorations in her home, adjusting anything she was not satisfied with.
Her mother said to her, "What's wrong with you this morning?" "What do you mean I'm crazy? Wait until I finish setting it up. I saw this on Douyin yesterday. After I fix it, you can see if it looks better than the original."
After she finished moving everything, sure enough, the whole room felt more open and airy. Even ordinary people who don't understand feng shui can still tell whether it feels comfortable or not.
Liu Yuxi's father has the ability to see ghosts, so her constitution is also somewhat yin. Before she met Xiao Liu, she had encountered countless things growing up.
For example, on the 13th day of the 7th lunar month in 2012, an elderly person passed away in the unit next to hers. Her unit was on the east side of their building, and the path leading out of the community was right downstairs. The other unit was on the west side of the building next door, and it was also next to that path. The area downstairs was full of wreaths. On the evening of the 14th, her friends had a gathering and invited her.
Liu Yuxi was initially reluctant to go, as she generally doesn't like going out at night around the Ghost Festival (July 15th of the lunar calendar). However, a friend of hers had returned from out of town, so she suggested that they have breakfast first, and then she would return home before 11 p.m. Her friends, knowing her situation, all agreed.
They ate dinner early, and then went to a business karaoke bar to sing. They arrived at the bar around 8 p.m., and as soon as they got inside, things went awry. That night, fearing something might happen, she refused to drink any alcohol during dinner.
As a result, the princess inside wore a red uniform. Whenever a princess passed by Liu Yuxi, she would shed tears, and when she spoke, it was as if she couldn't control her tongue.
She usually speaks very quickly, but that day she could only speak slowly, one word at a time, and she would start crying as soon as she got to the fourth sentence. After wiping away her tears, the cycle would repeat itself, with tears breaking out every time she got to the fourth sentence.
She, a person who rarely sheds a tear except when watching TV, movies, or reading novels, was completely out of control that day.
Moreover, it's mid-July in the lunar calendar, the hottest period of summer. Even though the clubhouse has the air conditioning on full blast, there shouldn't be any reaction to the cold in such a short time, right?
She was wearing jeans and a three-quarter sleeve T-shirt that day. After less than half an hour inside, her arms were covered in purple and white spots, just like someone with frostbite.
Her friend noticed that her arm looked really strange and was worried that something was wrong. After all, some people don't believe that it's such a coincidence. She herself wasn't worried, but she felt a little uncomfortable because she couldn't control herself. She told her friend that she had to go back and burn some paper money, otherwise it would get worse. Then she went home.
I bought a bundle of yellow paper from the supermarket in the neighborhood, burned it at the small T-junction between the two buildings, and muttered some prayers.
She felt much better immediately; her body wasn't cold anymore, and she could speak fluently again. However, she didn't dare to meet up with her friends again, since this thing doesn't flare up every day, so she just stayed home and slept.
From childhood to adulthood, there have been countless examples like this, she's completely numb to it. (If you're interested, feel free to leave a comment, I won't go into detail here. I reckon these true stories are quite captivating to read!) Her husband's miraculous stories are even more numerous.
However, since meeting Xiao Liu, nothing bad has happened to her in the past few years.
She had some talismans stored in her space from the previous world. She took out two peace talismans, folded them, and put them into two small pouches. She went out early the next morning and gave them to her parents when she returned, telling them to carry them with them at all times. She said that she had asked for them, and as a token of her children's affection, even if her parents complained, they would still do as she asked.
During her later live streams, she continued to teach the same few martial arts moves. As time went on, the number of comments in the comment section increased, the popularity grew, and her number of followers also increased.
When her live stream made headlines several times, someone from the authorities came to ask her some questions. She explained that all the time she had spent was hidden in books she bought from used bookstores. Buying books was real, but the hidden compartments were fake. However, she did have a spatial ability.
She had already started fabricating the story when she decided to go live. Traditional Chinese characters and classical Chinese were no problem for her, and with the spatial flow speed, as long as she could prove that it had nothing to do with her, that was enough. She didn't know anything else about it, so it was a perfect solution.
By handing over the so-called "original" books, the matter would no longer concern Liu Yuxi. The implication was that the government might start promoting the program from elementary school, and official video websites would also release instructional videos. It was estimated that this would impact the traffic on Liu Yuxi's Douyin account. They asked Liu Yuxi what compensation he wanted.
"Could you help me find a company to manage my social security contributions? I can pay them myself." It doesn't matter how much money it is, I need a substantial retirement pension!
The way the newcomer looked at Liu Yuxi was as if asking her, "Are you kidding me?"
"Really, you must have investigated me as well. I have enough money now to live comfortably for the rest of my life, not to mention that I can still earn more in the future. But since I came to Beijing, my social security contributions have been interrupted! Can you resume the contributions for the period that was interrupted?"
Instantly, Liu Yuxi, with her "obsessive-compulsive disorder," came online. The visitor nodded in agreement, then, as if feeling that the compensation was too weak, asked Liu Yuxi if she had any other requests.
Liu Yuxi really didn't intend to ask for any compensation from the government, after all, she got all these things for free. However, she still asked, "If I have a child in the future, can you get my child a Beijing household registration?"
The visitor's gaze grew increasingly speechless. "Then let's transfer your household registration to Beijing. That way, if you have children in the future, they'll also have Beijing household registration." Liu Yuxi naturally nodded in agreement.
Liu Yuxi didn't even need to show up; in just two days, her new household registration booklet appeared in her hands. Furthermore, her social security was also resolved; she no longer needed to pay anything herself, as her social security contributions were automatically renewed, and any previous shortfalls were made up.
Regardless of whether it's suspicious or not, since she's already been investigated, she needs to be even more cautious. Anyway, the spatial ability is unusable, so she can only operate it through mental power at most.
As for her talents, such as singing, playing musical instruments, and writing, she already has some basic skills, and she has taken classes or downloaded tutorials online, so there's nothing to worry about.
As for new skills, she never thought about them. From the beginning, in order to live a better life and be able to legitimately live a life of ease and comfort, she always chose to optimize the skills she already had. Gambling on stones could be explained by luck, and after that one time, she would never lack money again.
As for her other skills, when she wants to show off, aren't there other worlds? She's not just looking for trouble in her original world.
In the past, when I read novels, I often saw characters who had a gossip-eating system to get into the entertainment industry, or fortune tellers who got into the entertainment industry. Well, although she doesn't have a gossip-eating system now, she can still get her share of gossip in the entertainment industry by being a fortune teller!
You see, in the real world, she hasn't achieved a very high status in the entertainment industry yet, and she hasn't met many people in the industry. But isn't there another world?
