Lin Leyou had been trapped by his family his entire life. Right after graduating from high school, he was forced to start working to support them, all because he had just gained a younger brother. ...

And... although Wu Yin stole the guest room, he was also lucky enough to escape being crushed to death by the collapsing guest room, which is not a bad result.
Unexpectedly, Wu Yin appeared at that moment!
He emerged from the woods behind the collapsed house, his face and head covered in blood, and smiled at them, startling everyone. Some even took several steps back.
Wu Yin nonchalantly wiped the blood off his face, only to give up when he realized it was already dry and couldn't be wiped off. "Why are you all so scared? I'm not dead yet!"
Xue Rui was surprised, but the brim of his hat covered his eyes, so others couldn't see his expression.
Wu Yin glanced at Xue Rui twice, but didn't pay much attention to him. She smiled and said, "Don't be too surprised, everyone. Only two people died last night. I didn't die."
Seeing his bloodied appearance, Wang Wen felt a chill run down his spine. The fact that he was smiling made the situation even more sinister.
Not only Wang Wen and his group, but everyone else felt that Wu Yin was acting very strangely, and everyone gradually distanced themselves from him. As for Zhou Xuan and Liu Lili, who died last night, no one asked them anything.
No one asked where Wu Yin went last night; anyway, we'll find out after today.
As everyone gradually dispersed, Xue Rui, who was still standing in the same spot, became the most conspicuous person. Wu Yin whistled at him, "Xiao Zheng, where did you go last night?"
Xue Rui glanced at him, said nothing, and turned to leave. Of course, he didn't forget to keep an eye on the movements behind him as he left. If Wu Yin caught up with him, he wouldn't be so polite.
He wouldn't forget the grudge of being stabbed last night so easily.
Watching Xue Rui slowly walk away, Wu Yin's lips curled into a smile. "Quite the temper... I didn't expect him to survive."
It's unclear whether he was referring to Xue Rui or himself.
Xue Rui didn't go anywhere else, but returned to the convenience store. There was no one in the store now. "Boss, can I go to a room to rest?"
Lin Leyou nodded, "Go ahead, and don't forget to make lunch later."
Xue Rui: "Okay."
Lin Leyou said, "Oh, by the way, don't make it too lavish. We'll have a big meal tonight."
Xue Rui: "No problem."
Having someone cook for you is the best thing ever, and Lin Leyou is happy to have an easy time.
After Xue Rui entered the room, he fell silent, presumably resting. Soon after, guests arrived, all of them players, and a group of them came at once.
Each person spends several hundred yuan each time, so he earns quite a bit of money. After seven days, he should have an income of over 30,000 yuan.
That's really great. I wonder if this money can be used in the real world. If not...
Forget it, there's no use thinking about it now. Let's wait until he can return to the real world. Maybe he'll be dead beyond dead by now.
Thinking of this, his gaze shifted to the room where Xue Rui was. He had died saving Xue Rui, and the thought of protecting Xue Rui made him feel uneasy.
Pshaw, who said they're dead? Maybe they're still alive!
"three hundred!"
Lin Leyou's tone was somewhat unpleasant. Wang Wen, who had just wanted to ask him some questions, thought for a moment, then didn't dare to ask anything. He paid the money, took the things, and left.
After seeing all the players off, Lin Leyou thought with great interest, "These players... so many people have died, yet they still have the mood to eat snacks..."
In addition to basic food and water, everyone would buy snacks worth one or even two hundred yuan to take home.
They have so much money.
At lunchtime, there wasn't a single player outside the convenience store. They were probably all hiding inside the farmhouse. I wonder if they'll survive until the end.
"Young boss?"
Lin Leyou was having lunch with Xue Rui when he heard someone call his name. He instinctively turned around and saw, "Village Chief?"
The person standing at the entrance of the convenience store was Song Ying.
Lin Leyou got up and went outside, and the two started chatting at the door.
"Is the village chief here to see me?"
Song Ying smiled. "Nothing serious, just came to see you. How have you been these past few days?"
Lin Leyou thought for a moment, "No problem, it's fine."
Song Ying: "That's good. You've only been here a short time. I thought you might not be able to adapt. Since you're fine, I'm relieved. Oh, by the way..."
Hearing Song Ying's last words, Lin Leyou hesitated for a moment but then nodded, "No problem, we'll discuss it later."
Song Ying said, "Alright, after all, we still need to discuss the compensation. The time isn't right now, so I just came to let you know."
Lin Leyou touched his hair. "It's nothing serious, anyway, it's quite easy."
"By the way, village chief, a guest from a farmhouse is staying at my place for a few days. That should be fine, right?"
Song Ying smiled and said, "Of course it's fine, as long as there are enough beds. Of course, you also have to be willing to do it yourself."
Lin Leyou said, "He gave me money, so of course I'm happy to accept it."
Just as he thought, the key issue was finding a bed. Thankfully, it was alright.
Song Ying, "The guest who came to eat yesterday?"
Lin Leyou: "Yeah, I wouldn't bother with anyone else."
Song Ying's smile became even more genuine. "That's good."
He had almost achieved his goal in coming to see Lin Leyou. Lin Leyou's answer just now was, in effect, a tacit agreement. However... it was indeed not a good time to discuss that now.
Xue Rui, who was eating inside, only vaguely heard a little bit of what was going on, but he didn't hear the specifics. When Lin Leyou came back and continued eating, he didn't ask.
If you ask too many questions here, you might not survive to the end. Who knows what taboos this NPC shopkeeper has?
Lin Leyou had no idea what Xue Rui was thinking.
The two finished their lunch quietly. Xue Rui spent the afternoon hiding in the convenience store and didn't go out. Wu Yin, who had finally cleaned herself up, arrived at the convenience store at 4:30 pm.
Wu Yin now seems to have more hostility in his eyes, a significant change from before.
He asked Lin Leyou to get him two bottles of wine and a pack of cigarettes, and then went to buy some food and water. "Boss, how much is all of this?"
"Six hundred and twenty."
They only buy expensive things; they're rich.
Aside from transferring money to his family, he had never spent so much money at once in his entire life.
Wu Yin, carrying the things, wasn't in a hurry to leave. Instead, she smiled and asked, "Boss, do you know where Xiao Zheng went? Have you seen him?"
Xiao Zheng? Who is that?
Lin Leyou: "I don't know him."
Wu Yin blinked. "It's the little guy who followed me when I first came to the convenience store, the one who bought the hat and wore it."
Lin Leyou shook his head. "I don't know."
Wu Yin shrugged helplessly, "Okay, okay."
