The dean wanted to refuse, but Lu Tai left the check and walked away.

Unfortunately, just as he reached the door, it started raining heavily outside.

Lu Tai looked up at the sky, then looked back and said to the dean apologetically, "With such a sudden downpour, could we stay here for the night?"

"Uncle," Su Deng stood under the eaves, looking at him innocently, "It's just raining. Your family is so rich, don't you have a driver to pick you up?"

Lu Tai choked.

Su Deng continued, "Besides, it's only early in the morning, and the rain isn't going to stop forever. Why does Uncle need to ask for lodging?"

"I……"

"Lights!"

The dean quickly came over and pulled Su Deng behind him, smiling apologetically at Lu Tai, "The child is innocent and straightforward, please don't take it to heart, Mr. Lu."

Lu Tai's expression remained unchanged, still refined and scholarly. "How could that be? It's good to be innocent and carefree. I like children like that."

The dean said, "There are empty rooms in the courtyard. Mr. Lu can rest here for a while."

Lu Taibin politely replied, "Thank you."

"You little brat!" The headmistress poked Su Deng's forehead with her finger, glared at her pretending to be angry, and gestured for her to go back to her room. She then led Lu Tai to the guest room.

As Lu Tai followed the dean through the corridor toward another building, he glanced back at Su Deng, a fleeting glint of bloodshot light flashing in his eyes beneath his glasses.

At that moment, the name above his head became even more prominent.

The red was blinding.

Su Deng narrowed her eyes.

Her actions just now undoubtedly drew the attention of the road administration.

But it doesn't matter, because it seems that Lu Tai was coming for her from the very beginning.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have been so generous as to adopt her without knowing her at all.

Is he an A-rank super-high-level player from another world?

Let her see how she differs from players in other worlds.

"Dengdeng." Huahua ran out of the house and grabbed her, her little face scrunched up. "Did you do that on purpose? It's not easy for someone to adopt you, why did you refuse?"

Su Deng looked at her and smiled, "I want to stay and keep you company."

“You…” Hua Hua was stunned for a moment, then poked her head in annoyance, “You’re so silly, if it were me I would have left.”

Su Deng paused slightly, "Hua Hua..."

“I’m older than you!” Hua Hua snorted. “The headmistress said you have to call me sister.”

Su Deng was silent for a moment, then looked at her with a complicated expression, "Hua Hua... Sister."

Hua Hua's eyes widened in surprise. "Deng Deng, you called me 'sister'?"

She had been in the orphanage since she could remember, and was two years older than Su Deng. She had been asking Su Deng to call her "sister" for years, but Su Deng had never done so.

Today, surprisingly...

She looked at Su Deng and said, "Dengdeng, why do I feel like you're acting strange today?"

Su Deng smiled and said, "I do this every day."

"Yeah……"

Yes!

Who knew that the rain would actually last all day and wouldn't stop into the evening, causing flooding in the yard, and then a typhoon hit.

They didn't leave the roadside.

However, Lu Tai stayed in the guest room all day and didn't come out.

The oldest children in the orphanage are no more than twelve years old. They spend their days sleeping, playing, and learning to read with the orphanage director.

Xiaoyou is also here.

Her eyes were big and bright like grapes, clear as a lake. Her long, straight hair, past her shoulders, was loose and flowing. Her pure red dress accentuated her fair skin. She always held a black-haired doll in her arms, who was also wearing a red dress.

She sat among the children, occasionally glancing at Su Deng. When Su Deng noticed her looking over, they would meet eyes and she would smile.

The other children acted as if they couldn't see her and ignored her completely.

Throughout the day, apart from Hua Hua saying a few words to her at lunchtime, she didn't say a single word to anyone else.

Around 9 p.m., Su Deng felt something was wrong as she lay in bed. She suddenly opened her eyes and saw that there was someone else beside her bed.

The lights were off, and there was no moon outside. Only the faint light from the corridor shone in. The person by the bed had disheveled hair and wore a red dress, and the baby in her arms had eyes that gleamed with an eerie light.

Silently, without anyone noticing when they arrived.

In the middle of the night, who wouldn't be afraid?

Su Dengdu jolted awake, then turned on the bedside lamp, sat up, and looked at her. "What are you doing here?"

“Hehehe…”

Xiao You didn't say anything, just stood by the bed watching her laugh. Her laughter was high-pitched and ethereal. Her pretty face was innocent, lively, and pure, but in the night, it was incredibly eerie and unsettling.

Especially at this moment, a bolt of lightning struck outside.

Weird and spooky.

Su Deng: "..."

I hadn't planned to sleep anyway, and now I'm even more awake and alert.

At this moment, in the game world, almost all the system live streaming screens were broadcasting game content like a movie.

After the hidden time expired, six-year-old Su Deng's name appeared above her head.

It's black.

She sat on the bed, looking at the little girl in red who was always smiling and didn't say a word beside the bed.

Su Deng, who was inside the game, was unaware of this, but the players watching knew that the little girl by the bed had appeared out of nowhere in the darkness.

As her live stream progressed, many boring moments occurred. Some viewers left because they didn't want to watch and found it uninteresting, but most remained.

After all, the game Su Deng is currently playing is crucial to the survival of all players and the world.

Many people watched this scene, speculating about what terrible things would happen next and how Su Deng would deal with it.

Rain pattered outside, and the thunder and lightning added to the eerie atmosphere.
