Chapter 34: Day 34 of Transmigrating into an Object Part 1

The audio drama ended. The battery was still at 12%.

Strangely, she didn’t care about the remaining 12%. Her chest felt blocked, as if something was stuck in it. Her emotions couldn’t pull away from the drama for a long time.

It wasn’t as if she was the type to stay immersed after acting. Usually, she snapped out of it quickly after filming a scene.

But for some reason, she felt miserable right now. She couldn’t tell if it was because Shen Wenyi had died in the drama, or because of that last ethereal monologue.

【Five years. I’m tired. There’s no more time.】

Why did these lines remind her of Auntie Kang’s words? It was obviously just a coincidence. Abnormal Heartbeat couldn’t possibly know about the five-year agreement between Shen Wenyi and her mother. Even she only learned about it after becoming the Bluetooth Earbuds.

Alright, stop thinking about it. It was just an audio drama, not real.

Besides, she and Shen Wenyi were arch-enemies, not lovers. There was no such thing as being tired or having no time after five years.

The audio drama finished playing and stopped automatically. What about the remaining 12% battery?

If she just let it drain until tomorrow morning, would it run out completely?

Was Shen Wenyi asleep? She had no sense of touch, so she couldn’t feel if Shen Wenyi was still holding her under the covers or what she was doing. There was no shaking sensation, so she was probably just tucked there without moving.

It seemed she really was asleep.

What should she do now? The quality of these earbuds was good; the auto-sleep mode barely consumed any power. When Shen Wenyi woke up tomorrow, she’d put her back in the Charging Case. Wouldn’t that mean all her suffering tonight was for nothing?

Should she use the Soul Splitting Talisman, go back to her own body, and call Shen Wenyi to drain the battery? 12% would run out pretty fast.

Fine, she’d do just that!

She opened her inventory and flipped to the Time-Limited Soul Splitting Talisman. Just as she was about to tap it, her body shook. Rustling sounds came from the darkness.

The frantic sound of running, the sound of panting. Was the audio drama replaying?

Shen Wenyi, listening once wasn’t enough? You’re listening a second time?!

Remembering the moans and gasps from the first playthrough, her whole body felt unwell. Her heart started pounding uncontrollably. When she closed her eyes, all she saw was the sight of Shen Wenyi she had glimpsed as an object.

So pale, such a good figure…

No, Jiang Shiyang, stop your brain! Shen Wenyi isn’t normal; why are you going along with her abnormality?!

Shen Wenyi definitely has issues. Tomorrow, she absolutely had to thoroughly search the group, find Shen Wenyi’s account, and use a smurf account to chat with Shen Wenyi and fish for information.

She had originally thought she’d guessed wrong, but the more she thought about it now, the more she felt Shen Wenyi was a Homosexual! Who knew, she might even actually like her!

No way? Were all those years of being arch-enemies a lie? Shen Wenyi hid it way too deep, didn’t she?!

But if Shen Wenyi really did like her, wouldn’t her future missions be incredibly easy to complete? Wouldn’t she be able to easily manipulate Shen Wenyi?

Just imagining the scene of herself bossing Shen Wenyi around felt… actually kind of satisfying?

Tsk…

No, she definitely had to investigate this clearly!

The audio drama started playing again. The 12% battery definitely wouldn’t be a problem now. She felt relieved.

But listening to it a second time was still a bit unbearable. She knew the plot, but those ambiguous, intense sounds could still easily stir her emotions. It seemed she hadn’t listened enough to become numb. Probably after a few hundred times, she’d be desensitized.

Wait, why would she listen to it hundreds of times? She would never listen to it again!

She wasn’t as hypocritical as Shen Wenyi. She said she wasn’t a Homosexual, so she wasn’t. She wouldn’t hide it.

Suddenly, the world spun. Shen Wenyi turned over, and she was taken out from under the covers, pressed against Shen Wenyi’s cheek.

Although she had no sense of touch, at least she could see now.

Tch.

What did Shen Wenyi want to do with her now? She was really just a Bluetooth Earbud, truly without any other functions!

Shen Wenyi, don’t be like this. I’m telling you, I just can’t move right now. If I could move, I… I…

She suddenly choked on her words. If she could move, what then? What could she do to Shen Wenyi?

The sounds brought by the electricity in her body, the moans and gasps, seemed almost like a suggestion, hinting she could do this to Shen Wenyi, or do that to Shen Wenyi.

Deep breath.

Calm down, Jiang Shiyang. You’re already listening a second time. Can you not get led astray so easily?

Think about handsome men with broad shoulders, narrow waists, long legs, and eight-pack abs!

Jiang Shiyang: ………………

Why couldn’t she suddenly recall a single one? She had clearly worked with quite a few male stars before, each with an amazing physique. But now, when she actually needed to remember, she couldn’t think of a single one.

Her mind was filled with the distracting, seductive image of Shen Wenyi swaying.

This was troublesome.

Wait, something seemed off.

She was pressed against Shen Wenyi’s face, too close to clearly see Shen Wenyi’s expression. She could only focus desperately, almost going cross-eyed in her soul, before she finally caught a vague glimpse of Shen Wenyi’s face in the dim light.

Shen Wenyi… seemed a bit off.

Shen Wenyi’s eyes were tightly shut. A faint glimmer of water shimmered at the corner of her eye. The fragmented light slid into her hair, dampening the pillowcase.

Shen Wenyi couldn’t be… crying, could she?

How could she cry listening to such intense voice acting? During the first listen, Shen Wenyi had been moaning and gasping. Why was she crying this time?

The other earbud was in Shen Wenyi’s other ear. With Shen Wenyi lying on her side, she could see the figure under the blanket curled up into a small ball.

Shen Wenyi was crying, but no sound came out. She was alone in the room. No one knew why Shen Wenyi was holding back. It seemed like a subconscious act, unwilling to let anyone discover her inner thoughts, only biting her lips fiercely, crying silently.

9% battery left.

Victory was clearly in sight, but she didn’t feel happy at all.

Shen Wenyi’s crying made her irritable. She wanted to ask Shen Wenyi why she was crying. If it had been at the end just now, it would have made sense. After all, the music combined with the dialogue was quite sentimental.

But why cry now? This was clearly a fiery, passionate scene. Weren’t you very excited during the first listen?

6% battery left.

Stop crying, Shen Wenyi. You’re making me feel chaotic and annoyed. The key thing is, I don’t even know why I’m annoyed.

Maybe because I hate hearing people cry.

I myself never cry, except when filming scenes.

What’s the use of crying? If there’s a problem, solve it. If you can’t solve it, think of a way. Rather than wasting time crying, think of a few more solutions. If it really doesn’t work, find another path. Can a living person actually worry themselves to death?

Stop crying.

3% battery left.

Almost out of power.

Shen Wenyi, go to sleep early. If you keep crying like this, your eyes will be swollen tomorrow. How will you be able to film then?

Shen Wenyi.

Shen Wenyi…

Clearly, she should be happy that Shen Wenyi was crying. After all, the sorrow of one’s kin is the joy of one’s enemy. She was Shen Wenyi’s arch-enemy. Even though their relationship had eased a bit recently, she was still an enemy.

Yet she…

Shen Wenyi suddenly moved, reaching toward the Charging Case with the earbud pressed to her face.

She instantly jolted in shock.

Wait, what are you doing?! It’s only 3% left! What are you doing?!

Go ahead and cry! Cry all you want! But don’t put me in the Charging Case!!

So, this is what you get for poking your nose into other people’s business, even just thinking about it is a no-no! This is metaphysics, it resonates! Look, isn’t she about to be unlucky now?!

No! Absolutely not!

She hurriedly flipped out the Soul Splitting Talisman and quickly tapped it!

The next second, she opened her eyes in her own body. Not caring that her body hadn’t adjusted yet, she quickly grabbed her phone and dialed Shen Wenyi!

The phone rang for a long time before it was picked up. She didn’t know if Shen Wenyi had already put the earbuds into the Charging Case.

Shen Wenyi’s voice had the hoarseness that follows crying, though it was clear Shen Wenyi was trying her best to appear calm.

“It’s so late. Is something the matter?”

Panicked, she blurted out: “Do you have Bluetooth Earbuds over there?”

She regretted it the moment she said it. After enduring so long without mentioning a single word all night, bringing it up now… if Shen Wenyi sensed something…

Forget it, never mind. She’d already said it. Even if Shen Wenyi became suspicious, if she denied it to the death, Shen Wenyi couldn’t do anything.

Shen Wenyi paused, then asked, puzzled: “Calling me in the middle of the night, just to ask if I have Bluetooth Earbuds?”

“Yeah, it’s urgent. My Bluetooth Earbuds are dead. Do yours have power?”

“No.”

“Are you wearing them right now?”

“Yes, they’re about to—”

Before the words finished, the sound on the other end switched. A subtle difference was audible.

Shen Wenyi’s voice went from distant to close, saying: “The last bit of power is gone too. They turned off automatically.”

Automatically turned off? Then why hadn’t the mission given a completion notice?

Could it be…

She asked: “Were you wearing one earbud or two just now?”

Shen Wenyi said: “Why are you asking this?”

She said: “Aren’t there two earbuds? If one is dead, what about the other?”

Shen Wenyi said: “I just put the other one in the Charging Case. At most 5% battery.”

She instantly tilted her head back weakly, her soul practically leaving her body.

Without her sense of touch, she didn’t even know if she had been put into the Charging Case. She had to ask Shen Wenyi.
