Chapter 5: Day Five of Transmigrating into "Dragon Proud Heaven"
If I'm not mistaken, the voices I hear are the book reviews, right?!
Live bullet comments! And they're in sync with the story's progress!
Maybe... this is my golden finger?
Being able to hear comments seems pretty good?
Of course, I'm definitely not going to follow the plot. I wonder if the comments will change along with it.
Looking into Huang Chan's concerned eyes, he said: "I'm really fine now!"
Huang Chan was dubious: "Let me know if anything's wrong! Remember to go to the hospital for a check-up later!"
An Yi nodded, putting on a weak expression.
He declined others who came up to talk to him, and went over to say goodbye to the Du family.
Maybe because he looked pale, the Du family didn't say anything.
Maybe they were even hoping everyone would leave early.
He notified Li Xuan via phone, said goodbye to Huang Chan, got into the car, and sped off.
An Yi sat in the car, rubbing his temples. Although the voices in his head had weakened a lot, they were still chattering intermittently.
He had tried to control it earlier, but there was no way!
Fortunately, the voices had gradually begun to disappear.
From just now until now, all the comments he heard were related to Du Guyuan's broken engagement.
An Yi guessed that maybe the comments he could hear were either related to the plot or only audible after interacting with the protagonist.
It wasn't that he could hear readers' comments all the time.
An Yi slowly exhaled. Not being able to control the comments—hearing them only at key moments—was actually a good thing. At least it preserved some peace.
"Ding!"
His phone pinged. An Yi opened it to find a message from Huang Chan.
Huang Chan: "Remember to go to the hospital for a check-up! Your complexion was off all night. Your health is the most important."
An Yi's expression didn't change. He replied: "Okay, don't worry."
Then he looked up and said: "Go straight home, sir."
Lin He: "Yes, sir!"
For convenience at work, An Yi didn't live with his family.
He lived in a luxurious apartment not far from the company.
An Yi stepped into the apartment. Great, a cold, empty, showroom-esque so-called elite vibe hit him in the face.
In short, it didn't look lived in.
A spotless house, black-and-white-gray decor, empty rooms—very stereotypical of a wealthy bachelor's pad.
Exhausted physically and mentally, An Yi was too drained to even complain. He quickly washed up, threw himself like a sandbag onto the reportedly expensive bed, and fell asleep within seconds.
Slept like a log.
The next morning.
Awakened by his biological clock, An Yi felt much better.
Based on past experience, Lin He would come to bring him breakfast soon.
An Yi sat up groggily on the bed, stretching vigorously twice.
After washing up, Lin He soon arrived with breakfast.
An Yi smiled and happily enjoyed the meal.
Mm, having everything done for him... this is the life!
After breakfast, An Yi went to the company to start his day's work.
----------
It had rained lightly last night.
The air still held the cool, damp feel from the rain.
An Yi walked through the lobby with steady steps, his eyes straight ahead, with Lin He trailing him like a shadow.
Wherever he passed, a spotlight seemed to follow him.
Even though he was just walking, he still attracted frequent sidelong glances from those around him, while employees shot him adoring looks.
As he entered the elevator, there were many hushed, disappointed gasps around him.
As the elevator doors were closing, An Yi followed the sound and saw a few employees a few feet away, stopping in their tracks, looking excited.
The corner of An Yi's mouth twitched almost imperceptibly. Well, this is a novel after all.
He was sure that if this were the real world, the employees outside wouldn't be staring at him like lovesick fans; they'd want to hang him on a lamppost as decoration.
The employees' words wouldn't be disappointed sighs at not seeing him, but eager hopes that he wouldn't show up so they could slack off, along with "friendly regards" directed at him and eighteen generations of his family.
The elevator went straight to the top floor. The office door closed behind him, shutting out the chaos outside.
An Yi casually tossed his phone onto the large desk, instantly going limp, collapsing into the wide leather chair with a comfortable sigh.
Just then, there was a knock on the office door.
Chief Special Assistant Li Xuan walked in holding a stack of documents, as precise as ever.
Li Xuan: "Chairman An, please review these documents."
An Yi nodded, gesturing for Li Xuan to put the documents on the desk.
----------
"Skreech—"
A car stopped outside the An Group gate.
An aggressively styled Rolls-Royce Phantom, completely ignoring the "No Parking" sign in a domineering manner, parked at an angle, right in front of the main entrance.
A well-trained security guard hurried over with a smile to remind him that parking was not allowed in front of the company gate.
"Sir, I'm very sorry, but parking is prohibited in the area directly in front of the company. If you need to park, please turn left ahead into the underground parking lot."
The driver immediately frowned, as if he were about to say something.
The rear window slowly rolled down, revealing a sharp-featured face full of displeasure. He snorted coldly, his gaze contemptuous, and spoke with an air of condescending arrogance: "Hmph. Are you looking down on me?"
Security guard: ...
Security guard: "???"
Biting back a curse, the guard smiled politely and said, "Sir, you misunderstand. That's absolutely not the case. It's company policy, and it's also for the smooth traffic flow at the entrance. Please understand and cooperate."
The man snorted coldly, as if remembering something, and said to the driver, "Head to the parking lot."
The driver gave the security guard a cold glare and prepared to drive away.
The security guard kept his smile unchanged: "Thank you for your cooperation!"
After the car drove off, the smile on the guard's face instantly vanished. He spat fiercely in the direction of the taillights: "Pfft! What a piece of crap! Freaking lunatic!"
A moment later, a young man dressed in stylish clothes approached the company gate, followed by the driver from earlier.
With a bad expression, the man strode quickly toward the reception desk.
As he passed the security guard, the driver following behind gave the guard another cold glare.
Security guard: "..."
"Damn, what bad luck!"
With a cold and arrogant expression, the young man looked at the receptionist and said, "I'm here to see An Yi."
