I Have Yet to Become a Doll Today-Chapter 886 - : Dream 18
Chapter 886: Chapter 886: Dream 18
The wind on the top floor was strong…
Even though it was only four stories high, the mansion was built tall and magnificent, incomparable to the “four floors” of ordinary civilian buildings.
Fu Miaoxue stood at the edge of the rooftop, her legs turning to jelly.
Bai Youwei glanced at her sideways, “Afraid of heights?”
Fu Miaoxue snapped irritably, “I’m afraid of falling and ending up disabled, neither dead nor alive!”
Bai Youwei gave a cold laugh and said, “Don’t worry, from this height, you’d definitely die if you fell.”
Fu Miaoxue gritted her teeth and took a half step back, “…You jump first!”
“Impossible,” Bai Youwei refused, “Who knows if you’d jump after I do? There’s only one invitation card from a friend; if I leave, I won’t be able to come back in!”
“What if I jump and then you don’t?” Fu Miaoxue challenged. “Won’t I be at a loss?”
Bai Youwei shouted at her, “Am I fucking insane?! Why would I stay here if you’re dead? To wait for your family’s bodyguards to beat me up?!”
Fu Miaoxue bit her lip, torn as she glanced downwards, “…Bai Youwei, you’re sure we’re in a dream, right?”
“If it weren’t for being in a dream, how could I possibly make friends with someone like you? Masochism?!” Bai Youwei retorted.
“That makes sense…” said Fu Miaoxue.
She was too terrified to jump, looking down at the shrinking tiles and greenery below. The side of her face inadvertently turned fragile and pale, like a leaf swept up by the wind, possibly plunging down at any moment.
Fu Miaoxue whispered softly, “If this weren’t a dream, I couldn’t possibly have friends… Bai Youwei, you don’t understand, I’ve lived here since I was six, with few chances to go out, because I’m my grandfather’s only granddaughter. My grandfather’s business grew big, along with an increase in enemies. My parents were kidnapped and brutalized by my grandfather’s enemies; they cut off their ears and tongues and sent them to my grandfather. Other uncles and aunts also met with tragic deaths. Grandpa, afraid something would happen to me too, brought me to this mansion… It’s been over a decade…”
“Quit with the sob story,” Bai Youwei said impatiently. “You think you have friends if you live outside? Friends are a luxury item. I haven’t seen such a thing since my car accident at twelve. Sure, old classmates came to visit, but the pity and sympathy in their eyes were utterly boring! And that inexplicable sense of superiority they had was nauseating!”
Fu Miaoxue glanced at her, trying to salvage some dignity. “Then I’m stronger than you; at least I once had two friends. One was the Butler’s son; the other was an orphan my grandpa adopted from outside to keep me company. No one dared to pity me or show off their superiority in front of me.”
“And what happened to them?” Bai Youwei asked sarcastically. “I bet their fates weren’t any better.”
Fu Miaoxue pursed her lips and looked down at her toes, “The Butler’s son was manipulated to almost get me kidnapped; later, the Butler dealt with him personally. As for the orphan… she said she wanted to see the outside world and promised to bring me gifts when she returned. I let her go, but she never came back.”
“She must have been taken care of by your grandpa,” Bai Youwei stated with certainty.

Fu Miaoxue curled her lips slightly, “Maybe, my grandpa must have had his reasons.”
Bai Youwei asked, “Are you going to jump or not?”
Fu Miaoxue hesitated, “Is there really someone waiting for me outside?”
“Yes, yes, how many times do you need to ask?! Someone is waiting for you outside! He loves you like crazy, and if you don’t go out, he’ll die of a broken heart!” Bai Youwei said exasperatedly. “Hurry up and jump! Once you do, you’ll see him!”
Fu Miaoxue looked down, “Alright… then I’ll jump…”
Bai Youwei nodded, “Right, hurry up and jump.”
“I can’t, I’m still scared…” Fu Miaoxue suddenly grabbed her hand, “Let’s jump together!”
Bai Youwei’s eyes widened, but before she could curse, she was already being pulled down by Fu Miaoxue! ——
