Chapter 272 [(*^▽^*)]

At that point, it won't be a question of whether or not you can bring it, but rather... you'll have to collect at least 10,000 points each time, otherwise, if you don't have even 1 point, they might not let you exchange it.

As time went by, Lin Leyou gradually smelled the aroma coming from the kitchen. He was playing a game on his phone and would occasionally glance into the kitchen.

He kept thinking to himself, "If only Xue Rui were my own son! Yes, if only Xue Rui were my younger brother, that would be the best!"

Unlike his younger brother in his previous life, who always hid behind his parents, asking for money, and in the end still desperately wanted money.

I wonder if Xue Rui paid compensation after I died in my past life, or if he paid compensation to those vampires.

These vampires, after sucking my blood my whole life, can still get a hefty compensation in the end, after all, I saved Xue Rui's life!

Although those were things from his past life, Lin Leyou could never let go of them. Just thinking about that possibility would make his heart ache with anger!

Xue Rui happened to come out of the kitchen at that moment. Seeing that Lin Leyou's expression was off, he asked curiously, "Brother Lin, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

Lin Leyou let out a long sigh of relief, "I am indeed feeling a little unwell, but it's nothing. I was just thinking about some bad things. By the way, what did you cook? It smells so good. When can we eat?"

Xue Rui blinked, but didn't ask what it was. He smiled and said, "It's just the ingredients I bought at the supermarket. Just wait and eat, Brother Lin."

Lin Leyou originally intended to go in and help, but Xue Rui ruthlessly kicked him out, saying that he wanted to do it himself and that he couldn't interfere.

Okay, fine, I won't interfere then. Lin Leyou took the snacks and walked to the balcony. Standing on the balcony and looking down, the first thing that caught her eye was the road lined with ginkgo trees.

This ginkgo tree seems to be golden every day, and it sheds many golden leaves every day, covering the ground completely, as if it were sprinkled with golden sunlight.

Walking on this road feels like walking on a shimmering golden sea; it's truly a dreamlike experience.

For example, right now, there are two girls who are obviously gamers, circling around and reluctant to leave. If they didn't have phones, they would probably keep taking photos and videos to commemorate the occasion.

and……

If such a place existed in the real world, it would probably quickly become a popular spot for online influencers, even though it's located inside a residential area and outsiders can't just enter freely.

Lin Leyou ate the last bite of her snack with a blank expression, turned around and went back to the living room to throw the trash into the bin, then opened a bottle of juice and took a sip.

He touched his stomach, feeling full, wondering if he could still eat later.

Lin Leyou's doubts vanished instantly when he saw the delicious food Xue Rui had laid out on the table. What? Could he even eat it?

Don't you know that snacks and meals are packaged separately?

The two of them would either go out for a stroll during the day to explore the beautiful green areas of the neighborhood, such as the Ginkgo Road, the lakeside, or the small gardens.

Last time, they were still busy completing tasks. Both Lin Leyou and Xue Rui were so focused on their missions that they didn't have time to appreciate the beautiful scenery.

This time, I can satisfy you.

Often, players will walk past them in a hurry without stopping or even glancing at them.

After all, in the eyes of the players, they are just two very ordinary background NPCs. It's not that players don't ask them questions, but they simply don't know the answers.

Before long, players realized that the two of them were completely useless and were just background characters in the dungeon.

The rest of the time they rest at home, get together to play games, or eat delicious food while playing cards or chess, etc.

Lin Leyou had a great time, and Xue Rui was also very relaxed.

What Lin Leyou didn't know was that Xue Rui's emotions were very strange in the real world, he was under a lot of pressure, and even suffered from insomnia night after night.

Whenever he couldn't fall asleep at night, he would choose to go to a dungeon and stay there for several days in a row, keeping his nerves on edge. After the dungeon ended, he could finally get a good night's sleep.

I was so exhausted that I fell asleep.

But here... Xue Rui himself didn't expect that living with Lin Leyou would be so comfortable, not just in terms of the physical space, but also in terms of mental well-being.

Here, he has no pressure and doesn't have to face those disgusting people in the real world. He can sleep soundly every time he sleeps, and can even sleep until he wakes up naturally.

And today is the third day.

Xue Rui slowly woke up, looked at the bed curtains, and saw that a little light was already coming in from outside, probably around five or six in the morning.

They went to bed around 11 p.m. last night, so they've had enough sleep now that they're awake.

Lin Leyou is still fast asleep. He is lying on his side, hugging his blanket to his chest, with his head buried in the soft blanket. He looks just like a cat sleeping very comfortably.

Xue Rui looked down at Lin Leyou's foot on his thigh, blinked, and then suddenly reached out and placed his hand on Lin Leyou's foot, but then withdrew his hand as if he had been electrocuted.

Lin Leyou was still asleep and had no idea what had just happened. Xue Rui breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Lin Leyou was still asleep. Only then did he belatedly realize what he had done.

Why did he suddenly pull his hand back?

Why would he make such a move?

Xue Rui couldn't understand why he had acted that way subconsciously.

Never mind, let's go prepare breakfast first. Lin Leyou can eat it when he wakes up.

This time, when he reached out and moved Lin Leyou's feet onto the bed, he didn't feel the electric shock sensation he had just experienced. It must have been an illusion.

After washing up, Xue Rui went to the kitchen and hummed a song softly as she prepared breakfast, which was simple and unpretentious.

He originally thought that his peaceful days with Lin Leyou could continue until the end of the dungeon, but he never expected that he would hear a knock on the door just as he put the breakfast he had prepared on the table.

Xue Rui glanced at the room subconsciously. Fortunately, he closed the door behind him when he came out, so Lin Leyou shouldn't be woken up by the knocking.

He went to the door and looked through the peephole. He found no one outside. Was it a prank knock, or had an evil spirit come knocking?

By the way, do you still get points and items for killing evil spirits now?

Xue Rui knew in his heart that he wouldn't give it to her, because he had come here illegally and he was grateful to Lin Leyou for even having a place to stay.

Not to mention that his current strength is far greater than when he came here last time. Now, he can even solo the entire dungeon.

After thinking for a moment, he decided not to open the door to check the situation outside, but instead to see if Lin Leyou had woken up.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he turned around, he saw Lin Leyou walking out of the room while yawning. He looked at Xue Rui standing by the door with some curiosity and asked, "What are you doing over there?"

Xue Rui shook his head. "It's nothing. I just heard a knock on the door, but when I looked, there was nothing there."

Lin Leyou thought for a moment, then said, "Ignore it."

Xue Rui nodded, "I know, I didn't pay attention to it. By the way, breakfast is ready, come and eat quickly."

Lin Leyou's eyes swept across the dining table. It was quite nice. Although it was simple, it had everything it needed, even soy milk.

Wait a minute! Does he even have a soy milk maker at home?

He was certain he hadn't bought it, so Xue Rui went out and bought it himself? Otherwise, where did the hot soy milk come from?

Sure enough, after Lin Leyou finished washing up with mixed feelings, she passed by the kitchen and saw many things she hadn't bought at all. "These..."

Xue Rui was a little embarrassed, "These things are much better than what I have back home. I couldn't resist buying my favorite items when I went to the supermarket."

Lin Leyou sighed, "Do you really enjoy cooking that much?"

Xue Rui shook his head. He didn't enjoy cooking; he simply cooked for Lin Leyou willingly. His cooking wasn't something just anyone could eat.

"I just... want to do something, and I'm also very interested in these things. If possible, I'd like to take them apart and take a look."

Lin Leyou blinked. "Shall we open it and take a look?"

Xue Rui nodded, "That's right."

Lin Leyou suddenly realized something: ordinary things can be brought into the real world, but wait, Xue Rui is currently smuggled in, so he can't take these things with him!

Perhaps it's not because of that, but because Xue Rui is a player, while Lin Leyou is a resident. Just because Lin Leyou can do this doesn't mean that players can do this.

Therefore, if Xue Rui wants to replicate this thing in the real world, he must disassemble it here and understand it before he can replicate it after returning to the real world.

Of course, once you understand the principles behind many things, you can simply improve the existing machines, which makes things much easier.

Lin Leyou didn't ask any more questions. In any case, it was all Xue Rui's own luck. Meeting him was his luck, and getting the prop that could locate the Happiness Community was also his luck.

Everyone else is incredibly envious.

The two walked to the dining table and sat down, just as they were about to eat breakfast, when the knocking on the door sounded again.

Xue Rui frowned slightly, just like Lin Leyou, not wanting to pay attention, but the occasional knocking on the door was still annoying.

Lin Leyou ate without changing his expression, "As expected of Xue Rui's cooking, it's getting better and better."

Xue Rui, "Really?"

Lin Leyou blinked. "How could it be fake?"

They repeat this kind of conversation almost every day, so while they talk, they both look at each other with teasing eyes.

In the past, they would have just laughed it off at the end, but today it was clear that what was outside the door didn't want them to have an easy time.

The knocking wasn't as infrequent as before; it was a few knocks every now and then, as if they wouldn't give up until the door was opened.
