Can Paper Characters Get Butterflies in Their Stomachs?

Li Sui Sui was gifted, quick-witted, diligent, the top scorer on the college entrance exam, and had a bright future ahead. For more than twenty years, she had been a role model to her peers and a favorite of her teachers.

Looking back, every stage of her life seemed to shine with a golden light, without a single flaw.

The one exception was probably...

In her senior year of high school, she became obsessed with a notorious, shoddily made game. She was so consumed by it that she spent wildly on in-game purchases until she ran out of living expenses and had to eat instant noodles for two months.

Her friend was very curious and asked her, "What game is that?"

"The name's a little long," Li Sui Sui said with an awkward look. "I'll write it down for you."

On the draft paper appeared a dazzling title:

The Fantasy Continent: A Heart-Stealing Journey with Ninety-Nine Princes

Time passed, and despite her successful career and youth, Li Sui Sui was still being pushed toward marriage, half-jokingly and half-seriously, by tactless relatives. In a fit of anger, she flipped the table (or tried to), stormed off, and complained bitterly to her friend.

"Unless something unexpected happens, I think I'll be single for life."

"Uh, what do you mean by unexpected?"

"A paper character coming to life, or my idol falling in love with me, that kind of thing?" Li Sui Sui said nonchalantly.

Well... well... something unexpected happened.

The Lost Rainy Season:

In language class, they came to the word "world." The teacher explained that the word had a broad meaning and could refer to any place where we lived.

Lin Shao asked her grandfather, "Which is bigger, the world or the Earth? Is our little town a whole world?"

Her grandfather was hard of hearing and didn't answer.

Many years later, Lin Shao thought of that day again. At last, she parted the mists and heard the answer the world had to offer.
