Becoming a life winner from infancy-Chapter 578 - 457 return You You to me!

After parting ways with her uncle, Xia Nuo quickly found the elevator passage to the 50th floor.

Xia Nuo first searched for the door handle, located the spot to swipe a work card, and soon heard a burst of hasty footsteps behind her. She then instinctively darted into one of the utility rooms to hide.

"Didn't we just see someone?"

"It was in this direction."

"Let's search nearby again."

Xia Nuo crouched in a corner holding her knees, her body trembling uncontrollably.

She was still very afraid of the dark.

It had always been that way since she was a child.

Xia Nuo had an innate fear of the dark.

Darkness meant the unknown.

Not knowing what would happen next.

However, whenever she encountered a crisis of facing the darkness alone, she was able to muster the courage to move forward.

Because she knew that no matter when, there was always someone supporting her from behind, encouraging her to advance.

There was always someone with her.

But this time was unlike any other.

Right...

Unlike any other time before.

Xia Nuo hunched in the corner.

When she lifted her elbow, there was still a figure-eight bracelet tied around her wrist.

She had made this bracelet when she was in primary school and had made one for Fang You as well, to keep as a birthday souvenir.

Despite exchanging many significant gifts with each other since then, Xia Nuo had never taken off this bracelet.

She had kept the bracelet on her wrist, turning it into a small habit of her daily life.

Caressing the knots on the bracelet, Xia Nuo closed her eyes, pursed her lips, and silently chanted in her heart.

"Wait for me, You You.

Everyone is working hard to save you.

I'm just one step away.

Please don't give up, okay?

There are so many things I still want to do with you, things we haven't done together..."

Xia Nuo curled up, suddenly overwhelmed by a wave of inexplicable weakness.

Her mouth began to droop involuntarily, and as she drooped, Xia Nuo suddenly slapped her own cheeks, fighting to muster a smile.

Unknowingly, she didn't know how much time had passed.

Drowsy, Xia Nuo was suddenly startled awake by the ringing of a satellite phone.

"Nuo Nuo, I've got it sorted!"

Xia Nuo quickly swiped her work card and entered the stairway leading to the 50th floor.

But at the end of the stairs, another door blocked her way.

This door had no handle, nor a place to swipe a work card; it looked completely sealed.

...

Xia Nuo took a deep breath.

"Don't panic.

Nuo Nuo.

If it were that person...

Then it should be—"

Xia Nuo reached out and gently knocked three times on the door.

The door did not respond.

Undeterred, Xia Nuo leaned closer to the door and whispered:

"I've knocked three times."

Suddenly, a shimmering electric circuit screen appeared on the door, and the flickering circuit screen made the final door slowly open.

...

Xia Nuo didn't have time to think; she bolted along the route straight ahead.

This was a very long corridor.

So long it seemed to have no end.

But Xia Nuo kept running.

Running.

After she didn't know how long, she finally saw a room at the end of the corridor.

Out of breath, Xia Nuo sprinted into the room.

Unlike the bright corridor, the room was pitch-black.

But as Xia Nuo walked forward, step by step, stars began to appear under her feet, and ripples like those of water made everything around her gradually glow with a faint light.

Gradually, holographic projections of the Milky Way began to fill the entire room.

Star Sea Technology.

Not just a simple internet tech company.

Their ambition lay in the stars and oceans.

But cosmic exploration is vast and boundless.

It requires endless time.

Xia Nuo continued to walk forward.

But her steps were slowing down.

Because the path had come to an end.

At the end of the path, in front of the enormous research apparatus, a familiar figure blocked Xia Nuo's way.

"You've really outdone yourself making it here without his help..."

"Truly deserving, aren't you?"

"Or should I say—"

"Aren't I?"

The boss chair slowly turned, and in front of Xia Nuo appeared a woman in a white lab coat, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, her hands clasped, resting her chin on the back of her hands, and she watched Xia Nuo, who was looking disheveled, with great interest.

She had bright, clear eyes just like Xia Nuo's, a small and delicate nose like Xia Nuo's, and Xia Nuo's plump pink goose-egg cheeks.

Only she was more refined and had a mature charm.

"Have you guessed that I'm the mastermind behind Star Sea Technology?"

"You purposely locked You You away," Xia Nuo said. "Because you couldn't deal with him in the real world, you resorted to these methods..."

"Well, about that—"

Big Nuo Nuo stroked her hair, sighed, and then continued, "I warned you not to go to the Moon, but it seems you had no intention of repenting—"

"Give You You back to me," Xia Nuo cut Big Nuo Nuo off. "He's mine, not yours."

Big Nuo Nuo's eyes shifted slightly:

"Then... what will you exchange for him?"

Big Nuo Nuo fondled her fingers, still watching Xia Nuo with interest, "If you understand me, then you should know what I want."

"I'll do anything for you if it means You You can be released."

Xia Nuo said this without a smile on her face.

Because she really would do anything for her.

"What if I say... I want your body in exchange?"
