Chapter 26 My Puppet Husband 2
"It looks good, but unfortunately it's just a puppet." Zhu Lanting snatched the puppet from her hand, glanced at it, and threw it to her.

"Children won't like this. Let's go to see Transformers and Ultraman..." Zhu Lanting pulled her away.

"Boss, how do you sell this?" An Yan asked the puppet with a reluctant gaze.

"Young lady is really discerning. This puppet is unique and there are no replicas. How about I charge you a cost price of 120?" the boss said with a smile.

"Boss, can you save a little?" An Yanbing secretly pinched her almost empty purse and asked shyly.

"Girl, it's very troublesome to make a puppet. This process..." the boss chattered.

"This broken puppet is worth so much, boss, you can spend less." Zhu Lanting began to help her bargain.

"This puppet is the best in my shop, where is it broken?" The shop owner was a little displeased.

"Your puppet is very good, I like it, but I only have 80 yuan now, boss, can you sell it to me?" An Yanbing said, taking out all the money in her pocket.

"Seeing that the girl is so sincere, and the girl is also destined for it, I will sell it to you for 80." The shop owner accepted the money, quickly packed the puppet and handed it to her.

An Yanbing happily took the puppet out of the toy store, walked a few steps and couldn't help but look back, this look shocked me: the toy store just now was gone.

"Lanting, did you see if the toy store was still there?" An Yanbing turned around and asked Zhu Lanting.

"Hanyun, isn't that a toy store?" Zhu Lanting looked back and looked at her with puzzled eyes.

"Maybe my eyes are blurred, let's go." An Yanbing rubbed her eyes and looked back, the toy store was still there, so she smiled embarrassedly.

Back in the dormitory, Zhu Lanting excitedly tried on new clothes, asking An Yanbing if she looked good from time to time.

"You, you are pretty and look good in anything." An Yanbing said with a smile.

"That's right. It's time for him to come back. I'll show him the clothes." Zhu Lanting picked out the one she was most satisfied with and ran out with a smile.

"She's Snow White, and I'm just Cinderella." Looking at her unattractive self in the mirror, An Yanbing sighed and picked up the novel on the bed.

When it got dark, the other roommates in the dormitory still didn't come back. Today is Saturday, some people went home, some people went to meet friends, it seems that I am alone again today.

"Fortunately, I have you by my side. With you by my side, I won't spend the weekend alone in the future." Looking at the puppet, An Yanbing began to talk to herself.

After talking alone for a while, she walked to the window and looked out of the window boredly. From time to time, there were couples passing by outside the window, and fallen leaves fell on their heads and shoulders from time to time.

Joyful songs and laughter spread into her ears from time to time, as if all the people in the world were happy, but she was the only one who was unhappy and lonely.

An Yanbing sighed, and withdrew her gaze. When her gaze fell on the puppet again, the little doubt in her heart rose again: She is a person who never buys toys, why would she buy this inexplicably today? Toy?Also, when she looked back at the toy store, it was clearly gone, so why did it exist again?
The more I thought about it, the more uneasy I became. I looked at the time and it was only eight o'clock in the evening. Many shops would not close before the time. In order to understand the doubts in her heart, An Yanbing took the puppet out of the school gate.

"Girl, where is the uncle staying in the store this afternoon?" An Yanbing quickly found the toy store, but this time she didn't see the middle-aged man, only a young girl.

"What uncle? I've always been alone in this store." The young girl looked at her puzzled.

"Is this puppet from your shop?" After hearing what the girl said, An Yanbing became even more puzzled, and took out the puppet to show to the girl.

"This puppet is not from my shop. I have never sold anything like this." The girl took a few glances at the puppet and said with certainty.

"What's going on here? Could it be that I saw a ghost during the day?" An Yanbing walked out of the toy store with the puppet, feeling even more puzzled.

"Is there something wrong with this puppet? Could it be something ominous?" The more I thought about it, the more uneasy I became. I picked up the puppet and was about to throw it away, but my eyes couldn't help but fall on that beautiful face, and then I thought about the 80 years that I had lost. Yuan money, if the puppet is thrown away, wouldn't it be too unjust to spend 80 yuan, that is her meal money for a week.

Thinking of money, An Yanbing's heart ached a little. Looking at the puppet again, she didn't see anything special except that it looked good.

"This is just an ordinary puppet. Maybe I've overthought it. It's a pity to lose such a beautiful person. Let's keep it." An Yanbing thought and thought, and finally decided to keep the puppet.

Going back to the dormitory, looking at the empty room, thinking of the uncle who disappeared inexplicably, and thinking that maybe it was a ghost, she opened her eyes wide and looked around in fear.

She was timid since she was a child, and never watched ghost stories and ghost TV alone. Occasionally, her classmates dragged her to watch, and she would pester her classmates to sleep with her in the room.

"You have to stay with me tonight, don't let the uncle come to me." An Yanbing smiled silly at the puppet.

I kept telling myself not to sleep, not to sleep, afraid that something would appear in the room after falling asleep.But the more I said it, the more I felt that my eyelids were fighting. At some point, the puppet in my hand slipped and fell to the pillow...

That night, An Yanbing had a very strange dream. It was not the mysterious uncle, but a beautiful man walking towards her with a smile...
