312: Chapter 312 She could die for her beast husband or her cubs, but she…

The Fortune Teller knew that if he asked the young girl to give up the idea of going to that world right now...

She probably wouldn't believe him at all.

She might even take it upon herself to end her life.

To keep her alive, he could only say it that way.

Doing so would, for one, buy some time.

Perhaps after a while, when her mental state improved, she would figure it out for herself.

When the time came for him to tell the truth, she and her family would only be grateful to him.

Furthermore, from now on, every time she dreamed of that world, she would come to him for a reading.

Five hundred a visit—it would be a steady stream of income...

And all he had to do was advise her not to die every time and tell her the timing wasn't right.

Tang Ruan paid the money.

She walked out of the Fortune Teller's shop in disappointment.

The boss followed closely behind.

Just as he stepped out, a heavy cough suddenly came from behind him.

The boss looked back and saw the Fortune Teller beckoning him with a finger.

"Hush money."

The boss: ...

---

After returning, Tang Ruan indeed stopped thinking about dying.

If her condition in this world would be reflected on her body in the Beast World...

Then she had to take good care of her health and give birth to Hu Che's Cubs properly.

Even if her self in that world might be in a state of deep sleep...

At least she was still alive.

The crystals could ensure her survival, and the Witch Doctor Yan Qing prepared for her could help her deliver the Cubs.

And she had to work hard in this world too!

Tang Ruan bought a bunch of vitamins for pregnant women online.

She went to bed early and woke up early, maintained a balanced diet, and ate on time.

Seeing that she was no longer making a scene about dying, the boss felt relieved and let her be discharged from the hospital.

He even considered letting her return to work at his company.

He had moved to a new location and reopened an online pet supply store.

Fortunately, the goods hadn't been piled up in the company at that time.

Although he could have supported Tang Ruan for free...

He felt that letting her return to a normal life would help her distinguish between reality and dreams.

That day, he was just thinking about calling Tang Ruan to discuss this.

A WeChat message from the Fortune Teller arrived first.

"The girl came to see me. She said her self in that world should have already given birth to the children.

She also dreamed about things in that world, but she's not sure if it's just her imagination.

I sent her back and told her it's not the time to return yet.

But the girl looks very excited...

I'm worried..."

When the boss rushed into Tang Ruan's newly moved rental apartment, he was almost knocked unconscious by the heavy smell of natural gas.

Covering his nose and mouth, he carried her out on his back.

He wondered why she suddenly wanted to move and even changed to a place where she could cook.

So this was her plan.

Fortunately, the rental rooms for "corporate drones" were always very small.

Not only did he notice something was wrong, but the landlord and neighbors did too.

By the time he arrived, the landlord had already opened the door.

The boss carried Tang Ruan to a nearby hospital.

After some emergency treatment, she was out of danger.

Because she was found in time, she was discharged after only a week of observation.

But Tang Ruan was left with lingering side effects.

Even the slight swaying on a bus would make her feel dizzy and nauseous.

She regretted it immensely.

She just wanted to see if she could travel back to the Beast World at the moment of death.

Now she had tried it.

Not only did she not cross over, but she almost killed herself.

Thinking about what the Fortune Teller said—if she died in this world, her self in that world would also die completely...

She felt an overwhelming sense of fear.

But if she kept waiting like this, when would it ever end...

While Tang Ruan was at a loss, she met the Fortune Teller at the door of her rental apartment.

"I went to see my Grandmaster a while ago," the Fortune Teller said. "I told him about your situation.

Aren't you the Goddess of that world?"

Seeing Tang Ruan nod, he continued, "Since you are the Goddess, you must make a contribution to that world.

You've already helped that world progress and even bore Cubs for the Beast God.

To that world, you are no longer useful.

That's why you came back.

If you still want to return to that world, you must have the ability to make it better."

Tang Ruan's eyes widened with excitement: "What do you mean?"

The Fortune Teller smiled slightly: "At least get into Tsinghua or Peking University!"

Tang Ruan: ...

Tang Ruan: "Are you joking with me?"

The Fortune Teller smiled slightly again.

"Or, you could become a scientist."

Tang Ruan: ...

Although she had ended up at a vocational college back then because her mother changed her application...

Even with her grades back then, even if she had gone to a regular university, it couldn't have been Tsinghua or Peking University!!!!

Tang Ruan took a step back.

It was like a bolt from the blue.

The Fortune Teller patted her on the shoulder.

"To see your Beast Husband and Cubs.

Girl! Keep it up!"

Back in the rental apartment.

Tang Ruan sat blankly on the bed.

She could die for any of her Beast Husbands or Cubs, but she couldn't get into Tsinghua or Peking University...

---

Tang Ruan returned to her job.

The boss not only backpaid her salary but also all her previous overtime pay.

She began to work steadily.

On time for work, on time for off.

A year later, Tang Ruan suddenly submitted her resignation to the boss.

Boss: "You're doing so well, why leave all of a sudden?

I was even planning to give you a raise this year!"

Tang Ruan knew that her salary was the highest among similar positions.

Although she had saved Dou Dou...

Because of that incident, she had gone to the Beast World, met them, and learned about her identity.

She didn't feel the boss owed her anything anymore...

"I've signed up for a prep class," Tang Ruan said.

Boss: ...

It took the boss a long time to find his voice.

"Ah?

You're really going to try for Tsinghua or Peking University?"

Tang Ruan tilted her head, "How did you know?"

She had never mentioned this to him.

The boss rubbed his nose.

Oops! A slip of the tongue!

It was he who had found the Fortune Teller and asked him to say that to Tang Ruan.

He thought she would give up in the face of such a challenge, but he didn't expect her to actually plan on taking the exam!

However, he wasn't too worried; Tsinghua and Peking University weren't places just anyone could get into.

"Actually, the Fortune Teller told me," the boss said. "I didn't believe you at the time and thought you were crazy.

So I went to see him once...

I was concerned about you, not intentionally prying into your privacy—"

"It's okay," Tang Ruan interrupted him, "I'm very happy that you care about me so much."

Tang Ruan never thought that in the human world, the person who cared about her the most would be her "dog" boss.

While the other people who cared about her, and those she cared about, were all in another world.

She took a step back and bowed to him, "Thank you!"

Turning around, she ran downstairs.

"Tang Ruan!"

The boss's voice came from behind.

Her footsteps paused.

"If you get in! I'll cover your tuition!"

If she could even get into Tsinghua or Peking University, her mental illness should have been completely cured long ago...

Tang Ruan looked back, "Thank you."

She didn't refuse because from today on, she would spend all her time on studying.

If she had money in the future, she would pay him back.

Four years later, summer vacation.

Tsinghua/Peking University dormitory.

"Big Ruan Ruan, we're going to Wan Shou Mountain to play, do you want to go?"

Her roommate Zaizai put her arm around Tang Ruan's shoulder.

Tang Ruan turned back from the computer, "I'm not going, I need to study."

Zaizai pouted, "Everyone studies so hard normally, it's finally vacation, let's go out and play once...

Are you going to take the postgraduate entrance exam?"

Tang Ruan: "I'm going to take the doctoral entrance exam."

Zaizai: ...

"You're only a freshman... isn't it a bit early to prepare now?"

"Zaizai! Let's go!"

The voices of other roommates came from the door.

Tang Ruan waved at her, "Go on, go on!"

"Alright then... I'll bring you a souvenir!" Zaizai said, jumping out of the dormitory door like a happy little rabbit.

Looking at her back, Tang Ruan thought of the Rabbit Lady from the Beast World.

Zaizai looked about fifty percent similar to Rabbit Lady, plus her nickname was Zaizai.

So, she unconsciously cared for her a bit more.

Over time, the two became good friends.

A few days later.

Tang Ruan received a message from Zaizai.

It was a photo and a voice message.

"Big Ruan Ruan, look at this lake, it looks like a gemstone!"

In the photo, the azure lake was crystal clear, seemingly located inside a dormant volcano.

Tang Ruan stared at the photo, feeling it looked more and more familiar.

She suddenly stood up.

She called Zaizai—

"Zaizai, what is the name of the place where you took the photo?"

Zaizai: "Dongdong Valley."
