Hot Search Incoming: The Yandere Heiress’s Wife-Chasing Livestream - Chapter 4

Don’t be sad, Zhizhi! If they won’t keep you company, we will!

Support! As long as Zhizhi doesn’t get tricked again, she’ll definitely cheer up!

Why not eat your nutritious meal first? It’s been here for ages…

Gu Zhichou had been feeling a bit down, but seeing their comments made her laugh again.

The resentment of being treated like a live broadcast subject suddenly lessened.

At least these people were better than that author.

They actually cared about her.

She got out of bed, ignoring Ning Yiyuan’s attempts to stop her, and headed for the door.

As soon as her foot touched the floor, the world outside began to flicker with colorful, pixelated distortions, like a mosaic.

It took a while for the scene to return to normal.

Gu Zhichou frowned, tilting her head upward.

She seemed to be looking at the sky, but also at the author who drew the comic.

Her lips moved silently.

You can’t stop me.

Based on the comments, the original plot had her staying in the hospital for a long time.

Qiao Zhiyue would use this opportunity to confirm her relationship with Lin Ruoyun publicly.

She would also spread rumors that Gu Zhichou had a crush on her.

When Gu Zhichou confronted her, Qiao Zhiyue would claim she didn’t love Lin Ruoyun after all, but Gu Zhichou herself.

She would pressure Gu Zhichou under the guise of friendship, subtly flirting with her.

Gu Zhichou’s character was written as someone naive about love, mistaking friendship for romance.

She would spend even more money on Qiao Zhiyue, even inviting her to work at her company.

How could that possibly happen?

Gu Zhichou scoffed coldly. She’d sooner fall for a random passerby than for Qiao Zhiyue.

If she were still the soulless shell she used to be, she would have mindlessly followed the plot.

But now, that was impossible.

Gu Zhichou was determined to change everything.

The world had begun to shift because she had wandered into scenes where she didn’t belong.

And right now, with the female lead absent from the narrative, no one could control her.

It was as if she had slipped free from the author’s pen.

Until the inevitable main plotline arrived, Gu Zhichou could go anywhere she pleased.

Behind her, Ning Yiyuan’s gaze burned into her back.

Her foot, poised mid-air, swerved back and retreated into the hospital room.

Gu Zhichou offered the man an awkward smile and blurted out a phrase of Chinglish.

“How↗are↘you?”

After all, she couldn’t leave the room now.

If she wanted to successfully visit the library tomorrow, she had to get past the Butler.

Otherwise, he’d just call her parents again.

Ning Yiyuan’s expression remained impassive as he removed his white gloves and asked, “What kind of book are you looking for, Miss?”

“A manga.”

“Very well, I’ll arrange it.”

He didn’t press further, only leaving after ensuring Gu Zhichou had obediently returned to bed.

If she goes to the library, won’t the female lead lose track of her?

Not necessarily. The author loves to rewrite the plot.

Zhizhi is so good-natured, even letting the female lead go home…

Have you forgotten about the apple core incident?

Gu Zhichou leaned back against the bed, eating her nutritional meal while casually watching their conversation.

She suddenly realized that these real-time comments were more engaging than the drama itself.

More importantly, she could glean hints about the plot’s future developments from between the lines.

Finding someone at the library was secondary.

Her primary goal was to locate that manga book.

She needed to see the physical copy to uncover the truth behind everything.

Though it was highly unlikely to exist, this was a manga world—where the impossible could become possible.

Gu Zhichou found it strange that a manga could have such comments.

Could this be a public livestream?

Was every panel the author drew unfolding before everyone’s eyes?

Gu Zhichou shivered.

But that didn’t make sense, because the author didn’t draw every single panel.

Especially the supporting characters.

If it wasn’t her turn in the plot, how would readers know what was happening to her?

Gu Zhichou chewed her food expressionlessly.

Suddenly, her eyelid twitched, and she wondered if these people could even see her when she was showering or using the restroom.

That was absolutely unacceptable.

Basic privacy was essential.

Gu Zhichou couldn’t figure it out. She felt she needed to get her hands on a physical copy of the manga to understand.

She glanced down at her nutritional meal, then remembered the woman who had saved her from the water.

She murmured, “I have to find you.”

I need to know why you can appear during the times when I’m paralyzed. Why only you? Why you specifically?

Gu Zhichou had too many questions.

She felt her mind was completely consumed by that woman.

Unconsciously, she got out of bed and walked to the window.

Her gaze drifted downward.

Perhaps because Gu Zhichou had regained her own consciousness, she could now see the passersby.

Their faces were all shrouded in white mist.

Until… a girl appeared downstairs, carrying a cardboard box.

That familiar temporal distortion resurfaced.

The stray hairs framing Gu Zhichou’s face lifted in the breeze, and her pupils trembled as the figure came into view.

But the floor was too high; she couldn’t make out the girl’s face.

She could only discern the person’s general build.

The woman who had pulled her up with such strength was indeed taller than average.

She looked slender, yet she was doing all the heavy lifting.

Gu Zhichou paused for only a moment before bolting out of the hospital room.

Wait for me! You have to wait for me!

Her figure moved so quickly it left afterimages, scattering the floating bullet comments in her wake.

Did she get a stomachache? Why is she running so fast?

The bathroom isn’t even downstairs.

Looks like she’s looking for someone. Could it be that delivery worker?

The bodyguards stationed outside nearly thought they were seeing things.

Their young mistress had dashed out in slippers.

They immediately gave chase.

If anything happened to her, they’d never be able to bear the consequences.

Gu Zhichou’s mind was filled with thoughts of him. When she glanced back and saw the crowd of people chasing after her, shouting “Miss!”

Her legs moved even faster.

I can’t let them catch me now. The person I’ve been searching for has finally appeared.

Gu Zhichou deliberately charged into crowded areas.

Her hospital gown was loose enough, but her slippers kept falling off as she ran.

The bodyguards had to chase her while also picking up her slippers.

“Miss, Miss, you’re still not fully recovered!”

“Leave me alone!”

Gu Zhichou raced toward the place she remembered. Her speed, her route…

Her brain raced frantically until she heard the elevator ding.

She suddenly clapped her hands together. “Damn it! The movers must have taken the elevator.”

Fortunately, there were two elevators to her right. Gu Zhichou immediately darted inside.

But when she went to press the floor button, she hesitated.

How am I supposed to know which floor he went to?

But when she caught a glimpse of the pursuing bodyguards out of the corner of her eye, Gu Zhichou’s lips twitched.

She pressed the buttons at random.

Then she stuck her tongue out at the group.

You think you can catch this young lady? You’re still too green.

The bodyguards felt like they were eating a bitter meal. They didn’t dare chase too closely, fearing punishment if they overstepped.

Yet they were also deeply concerned for Gu Zhichou’s safety.

“I’ll call Butler Ning. You guys take the stairs.”

Gu Zhichou sighed inwardly, wondering which floor she’d end up on.

Hopefully, even a blind cat can catch a dead mouse sometimes.

The elevator stopped.

The doors slowly slid open, and Gu Zhichou’s breath caught in her throat.
