Chapter 374: The Terrifying Livestream Room (29)

Wen Wan looked at Qi Mingyue, then frantically plucked and inhaled her catnip like a cat encountering catnip. She was wrong; next time, everyone should go together. No matter who is missing, the female lead must not be left out. She really needed this feeling of winning without lifting a finger.

Qi Mingyue was used to it. She didn't know why this big star liked to freeload off her, but she didn't dislike it.

Suddenly, Qi Mingyue felt a chill run down her spine. She turned around and saw Gu Li looking at her, or rather, at Chen Yao. Qi Mingyue understood and reached out to pull Chen Yao away.

"Mingyue, what's wrong?" Wen Wan didn't want to miss the chance to get some good luck, especially since she had just been so frightened and really needed some comfort.

Qi Mingyue: "It's nothing."

Wen Wan was happily rubbing against him, and Long Qiaoqiao also came over. Instead of rubbing against Qi Mingyue, she rubbed against Wen Wan.

So the three of them were sandwiched like a cookie. The other players didn't find anything strange about it, but they felt that the temperature seemed a bit colder.

When the old man came to inspect the firewood, he found everyone was alright, and his eyes were filled with disappointment.

Then she went back to sleep.

When it was time for dinner, everyone's faces turned pale again, and their mood was complicated. Gu Li said, "This time you can eat without worry."

Wen Wan asked in a low voice to Gu Li beside her, puzzled, "You mean as long as no players die, the situation from last time won't happen again?"

Gu Li nodded. "Mm."

Hearing this, the other players' expressions improved considerably, but they still couldn't eat without any reservations, and each of them only ate a little bit.

That evening, Wen Wan originally wanted to ask Qi Mingyue to share a room with her, but then she gave up.

Her ability to attract monsters might be aided by Qi Mingyue, but it's hard to guarantee that the monster won't go to another room.

So she looked at Gu Li, but Gu Li remained silent.

Gu Li stared intently at him with eager eyes, "Brother Gu, I'm counting on you tonight."

Gu Li: "Mm."

Long Qiaoqiao looked at Wen Wan, "Sister Chen Yao, could I..."

“No, you sleep with Mingyue.” Wen Wan immediately refused. Long Qiaoqiao looked aggrieved, and Qi Mingyue quickly pulled her away.

"Can't you read the room? They want that...that."

Long Qiaoqiao: "!!!"

"You mean..." Long Qiaoqiao was covered in the mouth and pulled away.

Wen Yan: "..."

"Excuse me, could we go somewhere else to talk? He's not deaf, he can hear me." He looked at Gu Li awkwardly, "It's all your fault for spreading rumors. Now look what's happened, the baby in my belly was originally my ex-boyfriend's, but now it's yours."

"Excuse me, could we go somewhere else to talk? He's not deaf, he can hear me." He looked at Gu Li awkwardly, "It's all your fault for spreading rumors. Now look what's happened, the baby in my belly was originally my ex-boyfriend's, but now it's yours."

Gu Li looked at Wen Wan, who ultimately left on her own initiative, feeling guilty.

That night, Wen Wan lay in bed.

Gu Li was still sleeping on the floor.

"What kind of person are you in real life?" Wen Wan suddenly asked.

Gu Li turned around. "You want to understand me? You're interested in me?"

Wen Wan: "No."

"That's good."

Wen Yan: "???"

What does this person mean?

“My past is not worth looking at, so it’s dangerous for you to try to explore it.”

Wen Yan: "..."

"Who cares? I'm not interested."

Wen Wan closed her eyes and then turned around.

Sure enough, there was another knock on the door in the middle of the night. Gu Li got up and went out, and Wen Wan opened her eyes.

A little over an hour later, Gu Li returned, reeking of blood.

"What exactly is it? Why did it take you so long this time?" Wen Wan asked curiously, but Gu Li replied, "I've taken care of it all to avoid this happening again."

Wen Yan: "???"

If I haven't misunderstood you, you mean you handled everything?

Gu Li: "Mm."

"So I won't be here tomorrow, so you don't have to worry about it and lose sleep."

Wen Yan: "..."

She actually wanted to explain that she wasn't having trouble sleeping because of this, but simply because she didn't need to sleep at all.

But this explanation is worse than no explanation at all; it's not trustworthy at all.

That's really amazing.

"Go to sleep."

Wen Wan: "Okay."

Wen Wan closed her eyes, her mind filled with many thoughts, yet she made no sound, as if she were fast asleep.

However, whether it was her imagination or not, Wen Wan always felt that someone was watching her.

"System, what is the male lead doing?"

The system is offline, and I don't know where to go to have fun.

Wen Wan opened her eyes and met Gu Li's gaze. "Why are you staring at me?"

"I can't sleep."

Wen Yan: "..."

Then Wen Wan turned her back, and Gu Li asked, "You really have an ex-boyfriend? You liked him that much?"

Wen Wan: "Heaven and earth can bear witness that I cannot live without him in this life. For him, I am even willing to give up my own life."

"Um."

Wen Yan: "???"

Wen Wan closed her eyes and wondered if it was just her imagination, but she fell asleep and had a dream. She dreamt of a terrifying scene.

The river god, dressed in his wedding attire from his wedding day, walked towards her step by step. "A-Yuan, why did you leave? A-Yuan, why did you lie to me?"

Wen Wan: "No, I didn't. Stop bothering me. We can't be together."

"Ah Yuan, why did you kill me? You took my things, I will never let you go, even if it means death."

"ah--"

Wen Wan woke up with a scream. Gu Li stood by the bed, holding his hand tightly. "You had a nightmare. Drink some water first."

Gu Li poured a glass of water, which Wen Wan drank in one gulp.

"What dream did you have that was so terrifying?"

Wen Yan: "..."

Wen Wan, clutching the jade pendant in her hand, asked, "Can NPCs die?"

Gu Li: "Yes."

"But can't they regenerate? When the next batch of players arrives, won't they be able to return to their original state?"

"No, even if it happens next time, it won't be that NPC who comes back. The live streaming world has no shortage of NPCs."

"What if it's an NPC of the big boss level? Will they die too?"

Gu Li looked at Wen Wan, "Why did you ask that?"

Wen Wan: "I was just asking casually."

“Under normal circumstances, they are immortal because no one can kill them.”

"What if you die?"

"That means he's dead."

Wen Wan's face suddenly turned deathly pale. "But how could this be? How could she have died so easily?"

"The boss is also an NPC, but he is unique. If he dies, the live stream will completely collapse and cease to exist. This is something you players should be happy about."

Wen Yan: "..."

Happy? No, on the contrary, she felt guilty, extremely guilty. A dense layer of regret pierced her heart like thorns. How could this be? She only took the jade pendant, the pass, how could she die? How could the NPC really disappear? So she killed the river god.
