Chapter 933: Chapter 933: Moving House
Since Song Mingchuan fell ill, his presence at the base had been almost negligible.
If Du Lai hadn’t mentioned it, Bai Youwei wouldn’t have remembered that this person even existed at the base.
She returned to her room with a stomach full of knots, just about to open the door when Chu Huaijin came out from inside. Their eyes met, and both were momentarily stunned.
Chu Huaijin seemed a bit embarrassed, managed a forced smile, and then hurried away.
Bai Youwei looked suspiciously at his retreating back and asked Shen Mo, “What was he doing here?”
Shen Mo watched Chu Huaijin, who had walked far away, and said indifferently, “He hopes we move out, given that the base isn’t planning to support us anymore.”
Bai Youwei felt surprised, originally she was somewhat defiant, but now she was just taken aback and puzzled.
She didn’t speak for a long while, then hesitantly asked Shen Mo, “I haven’t… offended anyone lately, have I?”
It seemed she still had some self-awareness, knowing her temper wasn’t the best, she may have unwittingly offended Professor Song.
Shen Mo gave a quiet laugh and patted her head, “Stop thinking about it, let’s pack our stuff.”

Actually, there wasn’t much to pack, just some commonly used items like towels, toothbrushes, bedding, pillows, and other daily necessities were available in the dollhouse.
The two of them packed up in the room, Bai Youwei hesitated several times as if she wanted to say something.
Initially, she and Shen Mo were invited to live here, she didn’t care much for this place, but being swept out like this felt really hard to articulate.
Bai Youwei thought over and over, still couldn’t figure it out, and couldn’t help saying, “Could that old guy have become senile?”
He was lying in a hospital bed, surviving on an oxygen machine, how could he suddenly meddle in the affairs of the base?
Shen Mo said, “Chu Huaijin didn’t specify, but from what he said, Professor Song has made all passive preparations and will send someone to talk to Fu Miaoxue and Du Lai. If there’s an issue with Fu Miaoxue… we might need to move out too.”
Bai Youwei heard this and couldn’t help but widen her eyes, “…So he’s letting Fu Miaoxue and Du Lai taste the sweetness first and then use this as a threat? That’s cunning.”
Imagine, when Du Lai and Fu Miaoxue were anxious about not having enough followers, suddenly receiving strong support from the base made life incredibly convenient. Both were elevated to a higher position, perhaps they would reconsider the matter of surrendering.
Shen Mo pondered for a moment, then said, “I will notify Asarina and Along, are the others in the dollhouse?”
“Yes, Xiaoxin and Teacher Cheng are there,” Bai Youwei said, “Tan Xiao isn’t, he’s probably downstairs in the machine room playing on the computer again.”
Shen Mo quickly tidied up a bit, then left to inform the others.
Bai Youwei called out to him from the doorway, “I’ll wait for you guys downstairs.”
Shen Mo lifted his hand, signaling that he understood.
Bai Youwei returned to her room, looked at the familiar furnishings and furniture, and felt a complex range of emotions. This whole situation was…just utterly baffling.
She threw her luggage into the dollhouse haphazardly, wrapped herself in a down jacket from head to toe, warm and cozy, and went to take the elevator.
People in the Headquarters Building seemed unaware of her and Shen Mo being evicted. She encountered a few staff members who still greeted her warmly.
Bai Youwei waited in the lobby for a while when she heard the elevator’s ‘ding’ as the doors opened. She turned to look and saw Fu Miaoxue stepping out wearing a black princess dress and arrogantly walking in high heels.
Du Lai followed behind her, lugging bags and luggage.
When Fu Miaoxue saw Bai Youwei, she stared at her down jacket for two seconds, then seemed to realize and cooed, “Oh dear! It’s so cold outside~”
Bai Youwei: “…”
You don’t even have pores, what are you cold for!
Du Lai casually draped a scarf over Fu Miaoxue.
Bai Youwei glanced sideways at them and asked, “Where are you guys going?”
Fu Miaoxue snorted coldly, spitting out two words: “Move, house!”
