Every perfect love story must have an ex-girlfriend who serves as cannon fodder.
The cannon fodder ex-girlfriend is always beautiful, comes from a good background, and loves to act recklessly...
Han Lingxi rewarded Shi Guang Bu Fu partly because she admired him, but more importantly, she felt that Shi Guang Bu Fu seemed to know her in real life. What if he was someone she knew? Wouldn't it be awkward if they met in the future? It's better to do more good deeds.
On the other side, another group of people struggled to move all the fruit to Nanshan. As soon as the fruit arrived, it was snatched up by monkeys. The dozen or so people were bullied terribly by the monkeys, and they were extremely annoyed.
The only thing that made them happy was that they would soon receive the reward. Han Lingxi didn't keep them waiting too long, flapping her huge wings and landing in front of them.
Because An Ran Qianyu was the one who accepted the mission, Han Lingxi only spoke to An Ran Qianyu. In fact, Han Lingxi could speak to whomever she wanted, but she just didn't want to be too different from other NPCs and easily arouse suspicion.
"Thank you for your selfless help. This is a thank-you gift for you. Please accept it."
With a sincere expression, as if afraid that An Ran Qianyu wouldn't accept it, Han Lingxi transformed the item in her hand into a streak of light and entered the package that every newbie in An Ran Qianyu had.
"Thank you, it's my pleasure."
An Ran didn't have time to check what was there. She spoke very politely to Wei Guang. This politeness was almost ingratiating, which made Han Lingxi feel disgusted. However, she still resisted the urge to slap her.
"That necklace is truly a treasure with excellent attributes; I hope it will be helpful to you."
Han Lingxi spoke gently, and everyone was delighted. Sure enough, there was good equipment. An Ran Qianyu couldn't hide her smile. Such a treasure should be worth a lot of gold coins. You know, gold coins in the game can be exchanged for real cash. Many people are willing to spend money in the game. After all, as the first full-immersion online game, most of the players of "Heavenly Punishment" are rich people who don't care about this amount of money. But for An Ran Qianyu, this is a huge sum of money.
Han Lingxi, naturally, wouldn't be so oblivious as to linger with them. She casually said a few words and left. Of course, she didn't really leave; she simply flew up to make others think she had already flown away. Then, she landed on the cliff next to the group, watching how things would unfold.
After Han Lingxi left, An Ran Qianyu couldn't wait to check her package, wanting to see what the necklace with such good attributes that Wei Guang had mentioned looked like. She even had the idea of keeping it all for herself if it could really fetch a good price, instead of sharing it with these people.
An Ran opened the package but was dumbfounded. There was no necklace, only a lot of gold coins.
Han Lingxi felt that she was still quite generous. Although the amount of gold coins she gave was not much, it was still equivalent to the work these people did. It was just that their dream of getting rich overnight was impossible to realize. Unfortunately, people are always greedy, and this greed was even more pronounced in the game.
Games are indeed incredibly surreal, but they are also the most realistic. People can shed all their masks and reveal their truest selves, which is perhaps what makes games so appealing. And it is precisely because of this that the ugliness of human nature is often exposed within games.
An Ran Qianyu naturally explained her situation: there was no necklace, only some gold coins. The men didn't believe her, thinking she wanted to keep the necklace for herself and try to appease them with the meager amount of gold coins. They united and pressured An Ran Qianyu to hand over the necklace. An Ran Qianyu and Danche Jiumeng were the only two people on her side, and they were beaten badly.
