Xi Xixi? Why was he here?!

Huo Xiang turned his head and discovered Bai Zhen Zhen looking astounded, still in the same place. He asked puzzledly: "Why aren't you moving?"

Since his warning would only ring when he met a key character for the first time, he wasn't aware at all who this 'hobo' was.

Bai Zhen Zhen gave Huo Xiang a "hush", then pointed to that person squatting on the ground not far away and whispered: "That's not a hobo. That person was actually at the shopping mall last time when we draw the prize. He's the one who won before us... that star..."

"It's him?!" Huo Xiang was flabbergasted.

"Wasn't he the popular little fresh meat in a boy band? How could he be here in this alley at night, and what's more looking like this..."

Bai Zhen Zhen also found it strange.

She tried hard to remember any relevant plot points in the story.

Suddenly, a chapter came to mind!

Following the storyline, in that chapter the original host was hurt because of her feelings, and she went to the riverside alone to calm down. She arrived just in time to encounter Xi Xixi, who was about to commit suicide at the riverbank.

At that time, Xi Xixi was being excluded from his band and he was extremely miserable. Unfortunately, he had a candid temperament and was unable to speak up, which led the public opinion to attack him on the Internet. He couldn't bear the pressure coming from all sides, and the thought of committing suicide sprouted from his despondent feelings.

Bai Zhen Zhen remembered that part of the story. The protagonist stopped Xi Xixi's momentary impulse and had a merry chat with him for most of the night. That conversation was not just an enlightenment for Xi Xixi, but also a redemption.

However, since Bai Zhen Zhen had transmigrated into the book, in this parallel world the original host didn't run to the riverside because of frustration, but rather she followed someone else to happily eat desserts in the neighborhood. As a consequence, the 3rd male lead – appeared here to comply with the plot?!

It was another fated encounter!

"Zhen Zhen, you don't want to go greet him, right...?" Huo Xiang asked hesitatingly.

In his mind, this 3rd male lead called Xi Xixi would also bring suffering and harm the female lead in the future. Last time, the warning had already reminded him that what he had to do was precisely to keep the female lead far from these characters, as far as possible.

Seeing Bai Zhen Zhen not saying anything, Huo Xiang said again: "You are not familiar with him, it's better to avoid unnecessary trouble. What's more, he's a celebrity. If the paparazzi took a picture by any chance, you'd get into trouble!"

"But if I don't go enlighten him, he'll die."

Huo Xiang was stunned.

It was... so serious?!

During these few seconds Bai Zhen Zhen made a resolution – to save him!

Even if he was just an NPC, right now he was a living person right in front of her. What was even more important, last time when she went to the bank to withdraw money she was met with some thieving scoundrels, and it was this young man who saved her.

Therefore, she grabbed Huo Xiang's hand and said with sincerity: "Ah Xiang, I have a very important mission for you. This mission concerns a person's life or death, so you must complete it successfully!"

The corner of Huo Xiang's eyes twitched, and he asked with trembling lips: "Can I refuse...?"

Bai Zhen Zhen shook her head solemnly.

"What do you want me to do?" Huo Xiang sighed.

He didn't intend to struggle anymore. He just wished that once he was done with this matter, the happiness index of the female lead would have increased.

Go and enlighten that kid," Bai Zhen Zhen said, "he hasn't reached 20 yet, his life is good but the pressure is too much, he doesn't have anyone by his side to care for him or reassure him, which leads him to be depressed. Think of it as doing good deeds and accumulating virtue by helping those in difficulties. And if one day he hits the big time, you too will follow after and be prosperous!"

"I don't mind enlightening him." Huo Xiang answered, acting tsundere, "but there's one thing I need to make clear. Right now I'm the richest man in the world, I don't need at all to rely on others in other to be prosperous, ok?"

"Ok oh." Bai Zhen Zhen smirked.

That didn't matter, as long as Huo Xiang could help her handle this matter, she wouldn't have to receive the third male lead's love, and she would also save a brilliant youth, that was getting the best of both worlds.

Thinking of this, Bai Zhen Zhen was in a very good mood.

"Go, Pikachu!"
