Chapter 19 - 17: The Little Monkey Drinks Water
Li Si hurried to the Digital City to pick up a Lenovo laptop. At that time, the configuration wasn't very high, and it wasn't light. If it wasn't for playing online games, just browsing the web and chatting would suffice.
Suddenly, she thought that Taobao had been running for a year now; she could easily buy certain things there—convenient and quick.
Li Si went to the business hall to handle the wireless network card service, returned home, and excitedly connected to the internet. Ever since she was reborn, except for that one visit to the internet cafe, she hadn't been online. For someone like her who was super used to googling for foreign affairs and asking Baidu for domestic affairs, she now felt fully recharged.
Lounging with Xiao Guai, listening to music, browsing the web, and shopping on Taobao, Li Si felt joyful. If her private kitchen were to open, the current variety of goods wouldn't be enough. Li Si found a few sellers to stock up on the missing varieties, but considering seasonal issues, some had to be planted first and couldn't be sold temporarily. As for those not available, she'd procure them from the market.
Li Si filled in her home address, estimating that the current courier speed would take over a week to arrive, perhaps just in time for the weekend.
After browsing Taobao, Li Si led Xiao Guai into the space. Today, she had an idea—since the space's river water could remove impurities, what if Xiao Guai drank the river water and then took a bath in it? What changes would happen?
Li Si was someone who acted on her thoughts. She let Xiao Guai soak by the river, cupping the water, making it drink a lot. After observing for a while, Xiao Guai showed no significant changes. Its eyes just grew brighter. At first, it was a bit reluctant to go into the river, but now it seemed to enjoy it.
After a while, Li Si, feeling bored, practiced the self-defense techniques she had learned before. She marveled at her body, which had been cleansed, so full of power that she could handle less formidable bad guys in the future.
Behind her came Xiao Guai's urgent cries, "Awoo..." She turned to see Xiao Guai frantically running towards the shore, fur all fluffed up like a cat ready to fight.
Li Si anxiously shouted, "Xiao Guai, what's wrong? Huh?"
Xiao Guai was anxious, spinning in circles on the ground, baring its teeth and clutching its belly with both hands. It took Li Si a moment to realize—it needed to relieve itself.
