I Received Messages From Future Self!
"Hot Noodles request to add you as a friend."
An inexplicable friend request, a non-existent contact.
Claiming to be a message from herself in the future, intimately knowledgeable about her past.
Fang Xiaocao was utterly numb.
Hot Noodles: Danger, do not go home tonight.
"Is this some kind of joke?"
Staring at the WeChat message, Fang Xiaocao rolled her eyes and opened the anti-theft door.
Hot Noodles: At midnight, when the knocking starts, don't turn on the light if you don't want to die.
In the early morning: 00:00:00
Fang Xiaocao was woken by the knocking sound. She was just about to turn on the bedside lamp when she remembered that bizarre message.
She pulled back her hand and stayed put until dawn, only to know her neighbor next door, a woman living alone just like her was murdered at midnight...
Fang Xiaocao was suddenly covered in a cold sweat.
Hot Noodles: To celebrate our narrow escape from death, go to the flea market before three in the afternoon, stall number 7, and buy the seventh inkstone on the left-hand side. The seller's bottom price is 80, but the inkstone is worth 8 million.
After last night's ordeal, Fang Xiaocao inexplicably chose to believe.
She successfully bought an inkstone for a hundred dollars, and later discover it was indeed a imperial inkstone from the Qing Qianlong era, worthing 8 million!
Fang Xiaocao stood there, dumbfounded!
Following the message's instructions, she bought a second-hand car.
But little did she know, the guidance was linking her into a series of events that dragged out a murder case and a fortune worth two small goals.
Who on earth sent her the messages?
It's really her future self?
Or it's some kind of bizarre game?
Raw Raw Raw .
What a fantastic new story! Although I’m sure this plot idea has been done before, it is very unique to me. I absolutely love this premise of a “future me” sending back messages to a “past me.” What a fun read!! Looking forward to more.
I rate this book highly in the first 50chps, definitely a different spin with future text, slice of mystery, hood characters. that's why is there raws found???
What would you tell your younger self? If hindsight is 20/20 [clearest] vision and precious memories are stored in our brain within the crevices [our personal Chinese Thread Book], would unfolding pathways be like opening a zhen xian bao? Which petals reveal instinctive personality traits? Which crease releases a broken path? The protagonist is pulled onto a yellow brick path, their future self a bricklayer building the road leading toward a secret emerald city. However, rather than a journey to the past, reflecting, rumination, and vindicated validation, there is the current protagonist's point of view. Her decision-making still impacts the folding of the treasure map. Her choices bend the [if-this-what-now] into the [because-of-resulted-in]. The storyline is delightfully reminiscent of [Squid Games]. Each step forward, the day the hibiscus bloomed, waiting, blindfolded, holding a stranger's hand, and playing Simon Says. Does being in the future know the past to create our moment of enlightenment? What is the concept of wealth and prosperity at infancy? At childhood? At parenthood? If you could raise your younger self using lessons learned from your future life choices, how would you navigate your labyrinth? Which carrots would you dangle and which rod would you hold? Just how does the enlightened find wholeness? Is it really just as simple as accepting a text message? Which Hot Noodles [phone-a-friend lifeline], tossed or fried, is your intricately folded Thread Box holding? Your life is your empty vessel. The bountiful table is set. Are you really ready to feast?
