Chapter 752 The short-lived reality (1)
Little Pudding was named and commended by the headquarters.
Because the mission was completed successfully, he received a reward that he had never imagined before.
Faced with this sudden good thing, Little Pudding felt a little dizzy for a moment. If it hadn't hurt from pinching his arm repeatedly, he almost thought he was dreaming.
The leader of the general bureau personally gave him a medal and praised him for his promising achievements at a young age and that he would definitely become the best salesman in the bureau in the future.
The whole day, the corners of Little Pudding's lips never stopped turning upward, and colleagues came to congratulate him on his promotion.
Soon, Little Pudding was upgraded from a container office that he couldn't even stretch out his feet to a fully equipped, spacious and bright single room.
Even the chairs inside are leather executive chairs, which are more comfortable than sitting in the clouds.
Although all this happened suddenly, Little Pudding had thought about it. After all, he and Jiang Lai had completed so many tasks perfectly, and Gao Sheng was reasonable.
And according to the contract, Jiang Lai's mission has been completed.
So he told Jiang Lai with a smile.
"You can go home soon."
Jiang Lai was still sleeping, because she had to sleep for a long time after each mission, and the system had to clear her memory based on her nostalgia for the previous world.
Not that she had forgotten everything.
It's just to make her less emotional towards people or things in the previous world, so that it won't affect her next mission.
This time she slept for an extra long time. Little Pudding watched her every day. Just when he thought there was something wrong with the machine, Jiang Lai woke up.
No, strictly speaking, it was Jiang Lai's mental body that woke up.
She now looks hollow and transparent, and only a rough outline can be seen. Compared with when they first met, Jiang Lai looks a little clearer now.
"You slept for a long time this time."
It did take a long time. When Jiang Lai woke up, his brain was shut down for a long time before he realized where he was now.
Looking around, it was still nothingness, but it seemed a little more spacious than before.
"Thanks to your help, I have been promoted now. If I tell you the good news, you can go home right away."
"Are you sure?"
"Of course, if you don't believe me then don't leave then."
"I believe you, of course I believe you."
Jiang Lai yawned very tiredly, and then looked around.
"Why don't you look happy when you know you're going back?"
"I'm so happy... Has this place changed? Why does it feel a lot bigger than before."
"Of course it has changed. This is a host rest stop, which every salesperson has. The higher the level of the rest stop, the better the healing effect.
Stay inside, it's good for your body. ”
Jiang Lai looked left and right.
"What if we go out?"
"Of course you can't go out. You are in a spiritual body now. Do you know what that means? Superstitiously, it means that you are in a soul state now, and your real body is still in the hospital.
Without the protection here, you will die if you go out. ”
Jiang Lai nodded, walked around, then reached out and tentatively touched outside.
There is something hard under the palm, which is cool and carries a little electric current. If you keep your hand on it, you can obviously feel the pain.
She pulled back.
"Well, didn't you just say that I can go home soon? Let me go back and have a look first. I haven't been back for so long, and I can hardly find where home is."
Little Pudding hesitated.
"You have to apply for this. I don't have the permission."
"Tsk, tsk, tsk... Mr. Ding can't do it."
Little Pudding looked a little unhappy.
"There are some rules that must be followed, otherwise you will be punished, but it's okay. What is my status now? The leader will not disagree with this small request."
Half an hour later.
A cold mechanical voice came from the intercom.
"Until the task is completed, the host cannot contact the outside world. As a salesperson, you don't even understand this basic common sense?"
Little Pudding was silent for a long time.
After coming back, before he could speak, Jiang Lai said directly.
"Suddenly I felt that there was no point in going out for a look. Forget it, I might as well lie down and rest."
Little Pudding looked at Jiang Lai, almost thinking that she knew what she had just experienced.
But how could she know.
Maybe she really just doesn't want to go out.
But...Jiang Lai is so smart. If she could guess it, Little Pudding wouldn't be surprised.
"I just applied for it for you. If you want to go, just go and have a look."
"Mr. Ding is really awesome."
"That's right, but you have to strictly follow my requirements. If I tell you to leave, you can leave. If I tell you to come back, you must come back immediately. You can't delay even a second. Do you understand?"
Jiang Lai nodded.
"Okay."
There was no other way. Little Pudding followed Jiang Lai and experienced so many worlds. He watched her try her best to complete the tasks in each world, but he was like a bystander and basically couldn't help her.
He felt a little guilty and felt a little uneasy when he saw Jiang Lai.
If he can't agree to this request, then he has failed as a partner.
"You rest first, I will tell you when the time comes."
Jiang Lai lay down peacefully and continued to sleep.
Seeing her like this, Little Pudding complained.
"It's easy for you."
After saying that, he couldn't help but smile.
Doesn't this mean that Jiang Lai trusts himself enough?
Sure enough, he is the best salesman.
I don't know how long it took, but Jiang Lai was woken up by Little Pudding.
"Don't sleep, get up and do as I say."
Jiang Lai got up sleepily.
Seeing the empty space in front of him suddenly slowly crack open, Little Pudding urged.
"Hurry up, get out of here."
Jiang Lai reacted quickly and nimbly got out of the gap.
The moment she came out, her body seemed to be suddenly filled with lead and became extremely heavy. Her weak limbs and heavy head made it difficult for her to even open her eyes.
At this moment she knew that she was back, back in her own body.
This body looked like a machine that had been abandoned for a long time. All parts were rusty. Even the simplest action of opening his eyes made Jiang Lai exhausted.
The dazzling sunlight made her squint her eyes.
Even so, she still stared at the sun stubbornly.
What a real feeling. She had not felt this feeling of dying in the next second while lingering on her last breath for many years.
Opening his eyes was the first step, and the second step was to sit up. Jiang Lai almost exhausted all his strength and sat on the bed covered in sweat, looking at everything around him.
In the hospital bed, the alarm sound of the monitor was very harsh.
Soon there were rapid footsteps outside the door.
The moment the door was pushed open, she turned her head and looked at the first person who walked in.
Wearing a white coat, a stethoscope hanging around his neck, black socks and gray leather slippers on his feet, his hair was very long, almost covering his eyes, and he tied up the rolls on his head with a casual pull. (End of chapter)
