Reincarnated as her wicked older sister who has been cleansed up, she attracts a swarm of beastly hu

Chapter 142 Side Story: The Real World (7)

Pei Yu experienced a feeling she had never felt before.

The more I think about it, the more terrifying it becomes.

It was a strange and inexplicable coincidence.

The person from my dream actually appeared in the real world.

He discovered it by accident!
Pei Yu found it hard to describe his feelings at that moment, but there was no denying that he cared about this person even more now.

I kept flipping through Wen Li's latest videos, over and over again.

The more I looked at it, the clearer that inexplicable sense of familiarity became.

At one point, a memory seemed to loosen suddenly, then surged forth, almost overwhelming him.

Pei Yu quickly realized that the account he was currently using was not convenient for constantly checking Wen Li's updates.

So I switched to my alternate account, followed her, and quietly gave her a like.

In just a short while, Pei Yu discovered that several people had already liked Wen Li's post before he did.

After all, her appearance is so outstanding that no one can ignore such a face.

Several more comments have appeared in the comment section.

Hey beautiful, do you want my WeChat?
Pei Yu clicked into the other person's profile and found that they were quite good-looking.

This person looks quite young and has a few thousand followers. He often posts videos of his abs.

He's most likely a scumbag who casts a wide net.

Pei Yu casually reported the other party for suspected harassment.

He then continued to monitor Wen Li's movements.

Wen Li was unaware of the like notification; the system did not alert her, and she didn't pay much attention to it.

She was eating while watching a variety show, with her phone propped up in front of her.

This is Wen Li's eating habit; she must have electronic pickled vegetables, otherwise she won't enjoy her meal.

She initially felt that it wasn't appropriate to eat and watch from outside like that.

But no one paid much attention to her, so Wen Li didn't care and just did whatever made her comfortable.

After finishing her meal, Wen Li glanced at the time.

It's still early.

Going back so early means there's nothing to do, so she might as well relax outside.

A movie was recently released, and it's a genre that Wen Li likes.

Having spent too long in the Beast World, Wen Li felt as if she had returned from another world.

She hasn't watched a movie properly in a long time.

Wen Li checked the showtimes and decisively bought a ticket for a movie that would be playing half an hour later.

She's heading there now, it should be about the right time.

The mall was located about one kilometer away, and it took Wen Li a little time to walk there.

This is a new shopping mall, and it was her first time here. It took her some effort to find the movie theater.

When she finally arrived at the movie theater, there were only ten minutes left before the movie started.

Time is a bit tight, but there's still time.

Wen Li was used to eating while watching movies, so she went to the front desk to buy a popcorn and a Coke before hurriedly entering the theater.

There weren't many people at this event.

When she bought the ticket, she noticed that only a handful of people were selecting seats, less than ten.

The movie has been released for some time, and most of the viewers who wanted to see it have already seen it. Now, most of the people who are here are like Wen Li, who are usually busy and have finally managed to find the time.

Most of the seats in the theater were reserved for two people, but Wen Li chose the middle seat, which was originally the only one in the row.

She walked towards her seat with her popcorn, only to suddenly realize that there was someone sitting next to her.

No, to be precise, it was a row of people.

Three boys were sitting to her right; they had all arrived early and were looking down at their phones.

The theater lights were completely off, and there were only three minutes left before the movie started. Advertisements were playing on the screen.

Wen Li hurriedly sat down in her seat and placed the popcorn bucket beside her.

Then, using the dim light from the screen, she glanced lightly at the boy beside her—

With just that one glance, she instinctively gasped.

He Yan!

Sitting next to Wen Li was He Yan.

Sure enough, the people from the Beast World Continent appeared around her one after another.

Now that almost everyone had arrived, she actually felt a sense of relief.

Hearing the faint sound she made, He Yan turned his head to look at her, frowned slightly, and said nothing.

Wen Li's voice was too soft just now, and he wasn't sure if she was calling him; he just looked over instinctively.

The boy sitting next to He Yan noticed his reaction and looked over as well.

Upon looking, he spotted Wen Li, and his eyes widened instantly.

Although the lighting here is dim, judging from her facial features, she is definitely a beauty!
Absolutely stunning beauty!
He should have switched places with He Yan earlier, letting him get such a great advantage for free!
He Yan came with his friends today, and two boys were sitting next to him.

Wen Li couldn't see the specific features clearly, and could only vaguely judge by the figure.

After all, the three of them were sitting side by side, their height and build were similar, and they were all wearing sportswear.

As the movie began, Wen Li's attention was quickly drawn to the plot, and she no longer paid attention to He Yan beside her.

This movie was just so boring.

Wen Li doesn't have the habit of checking reviews before watching a movie. She enjoys the atmosphere of the theater itself more. She just wanted to sit down and randomly picked a movie with a subject that interested her.

She was unaware of the film's general plot or its current reception.

However, my expectations weren't high, and I didn't expect it to be particularly exciting.

But the movie was more boring than Wen Li had imagined.

The movie theater chairs were quite comfortable, and they even offered free massages. Wen Li leaned back lazily and couldn't help but yawn.

The film focuses on a horror and suspense atmosphere, but apart from the appearance of a ghost at the beginning, the entire film is almost entirely about the arguments and conflicts between the main characters.

Wen Li got sleepy while watching and couldn't help but yawn again.

As the main characters once again fell into a lengthy argument, she finally closed her eyes and fell asleep.

She hadn't seen such a boring movie in a long time, Wen Li thought with her eyes closed.

However, she did not know that after she fell asleep, her head unconsciously tilted towards He Yan and finally rested gently on his arm.

He Yan was originally focused on watching the movie.

He doesn't have high requirements for films; as long as they're watchable, that's fine.

The plot is now entering a thrilling phase.

The vanished ghost seemed about to reappear. Just then, Wen Li's head rested on his arm, startling him.

He turned his head sharply and saw a head resting on his shoulder.

He Yan was stunned. He subconsciously wanted to push her away, but then realized that she was already fast asleep and felt that it would be impolite to do so.

He wasn't good at saying no, so he just sat there stiffly, completely losing interest in watching the movie as his attention was entirely occupied by the people around him.

Seeing that the popcorn in Wen Li's hand was about to fall to the ground, He Yan quickly reached out to steady it.

The distance between the two suddenly closed, and Wen Li's unique, light fragrance wafted into He Yan's nose. He stiffened, yet felt a sense of déjà vu.

For a moment, He Yan was in a daze.

He straightened the popcorn for Wen Li again, and her body was still leaning against him, swaying unsteadily.

He remained in this stalemate for a while, but finally couldn't help but move his elbow, trying to push Wen Li away with a small movement.

Despite He Yan's persistent attempts, he still failed to push Wen Li away.

His awkwardness was noticed by his two friends: "What's wrong with you? You're so stiff, were you scared?"

The friend sitting in the middle asked in confusion.

He Yan glanced at him and shook his head quietly.

His friend's attention quickly returned to the movie, but He Yan could only remain in the same position. He tried to push Wen Li away several times, but to no avail. He held on like this until the movie ended.

The moment the movie ended, Wen Li jolted awake.

Her neck was stiff and painful from leaning to the side for so long.

She subconsciously looked up and met He Yan's deep gaze.

Wen Li then realized that she seemed to have been sleeping on the other person's arm the whole time, and immediately felt extremely embarrassed: "I'm so sorry..."

She quickly straightened up.

He Yan finally withdrew his numb arm and shook his head: "It's nothing."

At that moment, the cast and crew list was playing on the screen, and the lights in the theater suddenly turned on.

In that instant, Wen Li clearly saw He Yan's face.

As their eyes met, Wen Li clearly saw the astonishment in He Yan's eyes.

He seemed shocked by her appearance.

Wen Li was equally shocked by him.

At this moment, He Yan's friends also looked over and noticed Wen Li sitting next to him; their eyes lit up.

At this moment, their envy of He Yan reached its peak.

Having such a beautiful woman sitting right next to him must be incredibly awesome!

My friend no longer knows how to describe her jealousy.

"I'm so sorry about that, I didn't mean to," Wen Li said apologetically.

She didn't mean to lean on the other person's arm to sleep; she was just too tired and couldn't control herself. Her head tilted to the side and she fell asleep, and her neck is still sore.

"It's nothing." He Yan said calmly, not mentioning at all that his arm was stiff from being leaned against her for an hour.

Wen Li originally wanted to ask, "Are you free later?", but seeing that He Yan's two friends were also looking at her expectantly, she changed her question to, "Are you guys free later?"

Hearing Wen Li even asking him, He Yan's two friends quickly answered for him, "Yes, yes, we're free! What's up, sister?"

Wen Li looked a little older than them.

He Yan and the two boys were all still students, so she didn't mind them calling her "older sister".

"As an apology, how about I treat you to something to eat?" Wen Li asked.

Before He Yan could respond, the two boys next to him quickly agreed, "Okay, okay!"

He Yan frowned: "What's so good about it? Don't we have things to do later?"

He Yan felt he needed to calm down.

He suddenly saw a person who kept appearing in his dreams, and he felt very uncomfortable.

But the two friends didn't think so at all—it's rare for a pretty woman to offer to treat them; only a fool would refuse.

They answered for He Yan directly: "It's okay, we're all fine, we can leave anytime!"

He Yan: ?
So the four of them went to a restaurant in the mall.

To be precise, it's a beautiful shop.

Wen Li had already eaten a proper meal and was still quite full, while He Yan and the others hadn't eaten yet.

The restaurant had a variety of light meals, and Wen Li gestured for them to order whatever they liked.

After sitting down and chatting, Wen Li learned that the group were all students from the sports academy, currently in their third year, and they happened to be watching a movie together today, which was quite a coincidence that they ran into her.

The group chatted and laughed for a while, and the other two boys could clearly sense that Wen Li was interested in He Yan.

Inviting them this time was just a "side thing," so they have been helping He Yan all along.

During the meal, they revealed a great deal of information about He Yan.

This includes whether he has a girlfriend, his recent schedule, and the competition he will be participating in.

All three are volleyball players, each with long legs and an average height of over 1.88 meters.

Wen Li stood beside them, looking like a little bean sprout.

After dinner, Wen Li extracted a lot of information about He Yan from his brothers.

These two were quite good at chatting and were full of energy. Being with them made Wen Li feel several years younger.

He Yan himself didn't say much, just listened quietly from the side, occasionally taking a few sips of coffee.

His gaze would occasionally fall on Wen Li, as if he were thinking about something.

Wen Li chatted well with the other two, and they even exchanged contact information before parting ways.

Moreover, these two friends were very tactful, proactively creating opportunities for Wen Li and He Yan to communicate better.

The two shouted, "I'm going to the restroom, I'll come back to find you in a bit," and then slipped away.

When only Wen Li and He Yan were left alone, the atmosphere became somewhat awkward.

Neither of them spoke much. He Yan would occasionally glance at Wen Li with an indescribable look, and when he asked a few questions, he answered absentmindedly.

Wen Li could actually understand.

That's just his personality. He seems aloof when you don't know him well, but once you get to know him, he becomes more clingy than anyone else.

Knowing that staying in this stalemate wouldn't advance the relationship, she took the initiative to say goodbye: "I'll head back now."

As for her contact information, Wen Li did not ask He Yan directly.

Faced with his expressionless face, she simply couldn't bring herself to say it.

However, she wasn't in a hurry. Since she had already added his two friends, she could just have them send her their WeChat IDs later, which would save her from the awkwardness of the situation.

Having figured this out, Wen Li nodded to He Yan and said, "Then I'll be going now."

He Yan was clearly taken aback by her abrupt departure.

By the time he came to his senses, Wen Li's figure had already disappeared around the corner.

She actually left.

He Yan's slightly relaxed mood suddenly turned sour at this moment.

Just then, his two friends returned and came up to him with smiles, asking, "How's it going? Any progress?"

He Yan glanced at them indifferently: "She's gone."

"Huh? Didn't your sister add you on WeChat?"

He Yan shook his head: "No."

Just then, my friend's phone suddenly vibrated.

He glanced down and saw a message from Wen Li: "Let's hang out together again next time~"

His eyes lit up, and he nudged He Yan with his elbow: "Hey, my sister just messaged me! She said she'll invite us again next time!"

He Yan tightened his lips, not wanting his expression to look too unpleasant.
