Hahahaha!

A burst of clear, youthful laughter echoed through the counseling room. Mingmei, holding a teacup, gave Ruan Xun, who was laughing so hard her tears were almost flowing, a pair of dead fish eyes.

Heh~

Isn't it just that I heard about how he was eventually crushed to death by a derailed pirate ship?

Why are you laughing so wildly?

"Hahaha, sorry, sorry, I wasn't laughing at how funny your deaths were." Wiping away a tear of victory from the corner of her eye, Ruan Xun's words offered no comfort to Mingmei. "I never expected that the news I received would require psychological support from you, Meimei~"

"I didn't expect this either." Taking a sip of hot tea, Mingmei said expressionlessly, "We agreed on the Welfare Bureau, and this is it?"

Last night, Mingmei had just finished playing the game and was lying in the game pod, not wanting to get out at all. Then she glanced at Lu Xiaoyao's live stream. It's rare to see a live stream like this that's broadcast from beginning to end.

However, as soon as I entered the live stream, I saw Lu Xiaoyao crying very loudly.

"Waaaaah! If it weren't so late, I would have gone next door to find my friend! I'm so wronged QAQ"

At the time, Mingmei also wanted to reply that she was the one who was wronged to be implicated!

"Hahaha~ For Meimei, this is actually a perk~ The boxed lunches are selling well, and she can also go on a date with the boy she likes."

"uncle!"

Mingmei blushed after being teased by Ruan Xun.

Ruan Xun kept laughing. Seeing that Mingmei was about to glare at him, he quickly took a sip of water to calm himself down, and almost spat out the water in his cup, which made Mingmei across from him very disgusted.

“I remember, I told you about this game before, but you didn’t remind me.”

Mingmei felt that if Ruan Xun had just reminded her, she wouldn't have been tricked by Yan Hui so badly.

This isn't about whether the boxed lunches will sell or not, nor can it be explained by playing with Mu Chen. She just wants to know—

Why did the mysterious merchant NPC die so tragically and innocently?

"Oh dear, I didn't expect Brother Yan Hui to have such a wicked sense of humor~" Ruan Xun said with a smile, putting down her teacup. "However, it's ultimately because the players' vigilance is too low. No matter how many perks a survival game offers, in the end, it's still about escaping~"

"Ah, but, isn't there way too many implications to the saying 'things don't happen more than three times'? Three players can get into an accident while riding one amusement park ride?"

Mingmei recalled how she had finally escaped from the carousel, only to be crushed to death by the derailed pirate ship next door. Afterwards, she learned that there were also three players on the pirate ship next door, leaving her utterly speechless!

Annihilated!

Why!

“Not only that~” Hearing what Mingmei said, Ruan Xun smiled, a dangerous glint in his eyes, “The most important word in this clue is indeed the number three, but you’ve overlooked the most important word three.”

"Um?"

“The game has a three-day holiday,” Ruan Xun pointed out, then muttered to himself, “If I’m not mistaken, players in this game won’t even survive to the third day.”

"Huh?" Mingmei looked completely bewildered. "What's the basis for that?"

"No, I just guessed based on my understanding of Brother Yan Hui and the clues he gave you." Ruan Xun stated her guess confidently, "It would be too few for one word to contain two kinds of restrictions, wouldn't it?"

"Are all your hearts this dirty?" Mingmei chuckled. "Then the players won't be able to complete their quests."

"It should be completed within two days."

"Uncle →_→ You're overestimating all the players, aren't you?" Mingmei didn't understand Ruan Xun's mindset when he said that. "Normally, it's impossible to complete this~"

"That's settled then, isn't it? The welfare bureau agreed to let players relax. You can't have your cake and eat it too; academic credits and relaxation can't coexist! Besides, too much of anything is bad. Complete relaxation probably isn't what your school wants to see, so learn to relax appropriately, don't get overly addicted, and don't create unnecessary trouble for yourself..." www.cascoo.net

As she spoke, Ruan Xun narcissistically lifted her hair to reveal her smooth forehead, "Isn't this welfare bureau, full of life philosophy, really great?"

"Hehehe..." Mingmei didn't want to talk anymore.

"According to Yan Hui's twisted sense of humor, this is just for you guys to relax and have fun. As for credits? We're already having fun, why are we thinking about credits? You agree, right?"

Right?

Mingmei didn't know how to respond to that.

"uncle?"

"Um?"

"Did you offer any advice or suggestions to Uncle Yan Hui in this game?"

Although Ruan Xun kept saying it was just his guess, his confident tone and the hint of regret in his voice made her think that her Uncle Ruan Ruan had also done something inside.

After asking her question, Mingmei met Ruan Xun's mysterious gaze behind his glasses. Then she saw her uncle sigh softly: "It's not really a suggestion. I just said that regarding the special reminder about the number three, I felt that 'things shouldn't happen more than three times' was a bit too obvious, and I asked him to revise it. Unfortunately, your Uncle Yan Hui didn't agree."

Ruan Xun's regretful expression caused the corners of her bright lips to twitch involuntarily.

Mingmei felt a little heartbroken. Then it dawned on her that she had come here for psychological counseling, right?

Why?

The more she listened to her uncle, the more annoyed she became.

Is her uncle really like this to every visitor?

In this holiday welfare event, Mingmei wasn't the only one to receive psychological counseling; almost all the other players did as well.
