Outside.
"Hahaha!"
Lu Yufan sat in the back seat of the car, laughing so hard that she was rolling over.
Chu Bai smiled as he drove.
!!
Although he had drunk a lot, his attributes in the game were very high. Firstly, he would not get drunk, and secondly, his body could quickly metabolize the alcohol.
"I'm dying of laughter! That sucker! The bastard must be resentful now. Hahaha, he wanted to hit on Sister Qianyue? Hahaha—"
Yu Qingyu also smiled and said, "He's suffered a great loss this time. We can be considered to have avenged those girls who were harmed by him. However, if it wasn't for Chu Bai, we might really have been in some danger."
Jiang Qianyue sat in the front passenger seat and said, "So in the end, this meal was actually Chu Bai's treat."
"It's all the same," Chu Bai said with a smile.
"But Sister Qianyue, he knows us. Do you think he'll come looking for trouble with us?"
Jiang Qianyue said, "It won't be easy for him to cause trouble for us in real life, but it's possible for him to do it in the game. However, as long as we're together, we don't have to be afraid of him."
"Pfft! If he comes, I'll beat him up until he has to look for his teeth."
Lu Yufan waved her small fists.
Soon, they returned home.
"It's getting late. I'll go back and rest. See you tomorrow."
Chu Bai said to them.
"See you tomorrow."
Then, they went home separately.
Chu Bai went straight to sleep after he returned.
…
The next morning.
Chu Bai opened his eyes, washed up, and cooked some noodles.
Chu Bai scrolled through the news.
There was no news of Gu Yun exposing what happened last night!
Obviously, he did not dare to expose it. He did not dare to make a big deal out of it.
After all, he felt guilty.
…
In a dilapidated old neighborhood.
This neighborhood had been around for decades, and all the houses were old. From the outside, one could almost see that cracks had appeared on the walls of some of the houses.
There were actually quite a number of people living here.
There were many breakfast stalls in the alley, but the environment was a little messy.
In a house in one of the buildings.
In the kitchen.
A small body was standing on a stool and frying something in front of the gas stove.
He looked like a five-year-old child.
The house was only 50 square meters in total. There was a small living room, a small kitchen, and two small bedrooms.
Although the house was very old, the interior was still decorated very warmly.
The walls were old and shabby, but they were covered with pink wallpaper. The floor was old as well, but it was covered with foam boards made of colorful foam.
The door to the bedroom next door opened.
The woman walked out in her pajamas.
When she saw Yao Yao in the kitchen, she was shocked. She quickly ran over and hugged her.
"Little girl, be careful. What if you fall? Come down quickly."
"Mommy…"
Yao Yao looked at the woman happily.
"Mommy, wait a moment. The porridge will be ready soon. Yao Yao is frying ham for Mommy. Breakfast will be ready soon."
The woman looked at the pot and couldn't help but feel a little bitter.
"Yao Yao."
Ming Yue hugged Yao Yao.
"Mommy… Mommy, why are you crying?"
Yao Yao wiped her tears obediently.
"Mommy is happy…"
Ming Yue wiped her tears and carried Yao Yao to the ground.
"Be good. Mommy will do it. Yao Yao, go and take your medicine."
"Yes, yes."
...
Yao Yao then ran out of the kitchen.
Ming Yue looked at her daughter's back and gently wiped her tears.
Their living conditions were very harsh. Before this, she worked two or three jobs a day. She was not very capable. Her job was either as a waitress or someone who handed out flyers.
She could earn 200 to 300 yuan in a day.
However, Yao Yao's health was very poor. She had to spend more than 10,000 yuan every month on her medicine.
She had also sold her house and now rented this place for 300 yuan a month.
She kept saving and eating as little as she could. She had not bought new clothes for years.
Perhaps to others, a few yuan was nothing, but to her, even a few yuan could be the cost of a meal.
Ming Yue knew that in her current situation, Yao Yao could only wait for death. Therefore, in order to earn money, she tried to bring Yao Yao into Fate.
She did not dare to farm monsters, so she chose to be an appraiser.
Fate had also taken good care of her. After she entered the game, she got a fairy appraisal skill and even met Bai Ye. In just one day, she earned 5,000 yuan!
...
From then on, she felt that life was truly filled with hope.
"Yao Yao, Mommy will definitely cure you."
Ming Yue gently wiped her tears.
"Mommy… Yao Yao was good and finished her medicine."
Yao Yao ran into the kitchen happily.
"Good girl. Sit down and prepare to eat. After dinner, we'll go play in Fate."
"Hehehe, alright."
…
[Ding. Welcome to Fate.]
[Ding. You've obtained the ultimate skill—Extreme Cold.]
[Extreme Cold: this is an ultimate control-type skill. It doesn't deal any damage, but it has a powerful control effect. Effect: can be cast in 0.5 seconds. After casting, all units within ten meters will be frozen for two seconds. No cooldown.]
Chu Bai raised his eyebrows.
"This skill is good."
This also meant that Chu Bai had almost unlimited control.
Unfortunately, it required 0.5 seconds to cast.
Fortunately, it was only 0.5 seconds.
"Since I have this skill, I have to go level up."
Currently, there were no more missions, so Chu Bai could only find a place or take on a mission while focusing on leveling up.
"Let's go and appraise the equipment first."
He had more than a hundred gold and silver pieces of equipment on him. They had to be appraised before they could be auctioned or sold.
He did not intend to give these to Qingqiu Yanmo. Now that Jiang Qianyue's Five Moons Chamber of Commerce had been officially established, he could just sell the equipment to the Five Moons Chamber of Commerce.
"She's online."
Chu Bai glanced at Helpless Bright Moon. She was online now.
Then, Chu Bai sent her a message.
[I need you to appraise my equipment. Do you have time?]
Ming Yue pulled Yao Yao along, and the two of them stood by the roadside, asking the players passing by if they needed to appraise their equipment.
To be honest, it was not easy to earn money these days, and there were not many players who needed their equipment appraised.
When she received Chu Bai's message, she quickly replied: [Yes!]
[Are you still in that alley? Forget it, come find me at the Five Moons Chamber of Commerce.]
Chu Bai replied.
[Alright, I'll be there soon.]
Ming Yue happily picked Yao Yao up.
"Yao Yao, we can earn money again."
Yao Yao also happily kissed her mother.
"Hehehe, is it the big brother that Yao Yao found yesterday?"
"Yeah, let's go. We'll help him appraise his equipment."
"Alright."
The two of them held hands and walked toward the Five Moons Chamber of Commerce.
