Chapter 727 [(*^▽^*)]
Xue Rui: "Yes, I participate in the dungeon once a month. As for the previous urgency, it was simply because..."
He looked at Lin Leyou as he said this, making Lin Leyou a little embarrassed. "I know."
Xue Rui's previous urgency was purposeful; initially, it was to become stronger and gain more initiative, but later it was definitely for his own benefit.
But isn't he the same? He just wants to live a good life, earn more money, and enjoy his life to the fullest.
Now... well, you could say that all the wishes I set for myself have come true: to have a home of my own, to earn lots of money, to support myself well, and to find a lover to spend my life with.
Aside from not having children, he could be considered to have a perfect life.
Besides... who says you have to have children to have a fulfilling life? As long as you live a happy and fulfilling life, that's enough.
Xue Rui: "Na, it's settled then."
Lin Leyou: "Okay, I'll definitely listen to you this time."
Both of them have started school now, one in the real world and the other in the endless world. Although they are in two different worlds, their class times still overlap, for example, from Monday to Friday.
Lin Leyou travels between the two worlds every day, but it's still relatively easy. The only problem is the time he spends with Qin Xingyu. Although he's been tormented by Qin Xingyu to this day, he has still made some progress.
After he became stronger, he would often drag Xue Rui to a specially decorated training room in the real world to spar. The two of them were bound to become stronger in tandem.
Although we don't know when we'll be able to enter the Super Star dungeon, it's always good to prepare in advance.
For the next few months, the two continued to enter the game instance once a month until the Chinese New Year.
A phone call to Xue Rui shattered their peaceful and beautiful life.
The night was still warm outside. Xue Rui had just thrown Lin Leyou onto the bed, and the two were about to do something when Xue Rui's phone rang. He picked it up and his eyes immediately turned cold.
Lin Leyou looked at him, "It's them?"
Xue Rui tossed his phone aside, letting it ring. "Yeah, ignore it, let's continue."
The phone kept ringing, then stopping, then ringing again, which completely ruined their mood.
Lin Leyou, "Didn't you block me?"
Xue Rui said, "He will keep calling with new ones."
Lin Leyou: "Hmm? You called before too?"
Xue Rui, "Starting yesterday."
Lin Leyou said, "In that case, we can change our phone number."
Xue Rui: "It's no use. I don't know why, but every time I change my phone number, he finds out very quickly."
Lin Leyou, "How many people could possibly know your phone number?"
Xue Rui said, "Many senior executives in the company know this."
Lin Leyou nodded, "In that case, let's put it outside. We won't be able to hear it if we close the door."
Xue Rui: "No need, I want to see what he has to say."
Lin Leyou nodded, wanting to look outside, but then he saw the curtains. Right, the curtains were drawn, so he couldn't see outside. He turned back to look at Xue Rui.
Xue Rui wasn't without a better way to block all the phone calls from that family of three, but he simply left them on.
He answered the phone without saying a word, waiting for the person on the other end to speak.
He thought it was that old man Xue Zhengyang, but when he opened his mouth, the voice belonged to a young man. Who else could it be but Xue Qian?
Xue Qian: "Hi Xue Rui, are you asleep so late?"
Xue Rui hung up the phone immediately.
Xue Qian probably didn't expect him to hang up the phone directly. He thought that if Xue Rui answered his call and heard his voice, he would at least say something unpleasant.
Xue Qian stared at the phone in his hand in surprise, momentarily stunned. He stared at it for a while with some confusion before continuing to dial.
Xue Rui ignored them and lay in bed with Lin Leyou watching the latest TV dramas, thoroughly enjoying themselves.
Just then, Lin Leyou's phone rang. He glanced at it and saw it was an unfamiliar number. After thinking for a moment, he decided not to answer and hung up.
But soon, their phones rang again, and so it went on, with both of their phones ringing one after another, which was quite annoying.
Lin Leyou checked the number several times, and it was always the same number calling. Could it be that the couple back home somehow got his phone number?
He had only written down this phone call when he went to the police station to give a statement, and had also told Xue Rui, the real estate agent, the renovation company staff, and the landlord.
There was no one else besides him. Even Qian Feng only had each other's QQ numbers; the other party didn't know his phone number.
Did they actually report themselves to the police and find this phone number?
After much consideration, Lin Leyou finally decided to accept the offer.
Xue Rui didn't answer the call, but instead held the phone in his hand and looked at Lin Leyou, who was answering it.
Lin Leyou didn't speak after the call connected, but waited for the other person to speak.
"Hello?"
The voice on the other end was a woman's, a memory Lin Leyou would never forget, because in her past life, almost every phone call she answered was this voice, with only a very few being from a man.
"Xiao You?"
Lin Leyou's lips twitched. This person was his blood mother, the provider of half of his genes, and had no other significance.
Lin Leyou remained silent. The other end of the line must have had speakerphone on, so they could hear some sounds besides her voice, such as a child's voice.
After several unsuccessful inquiries, the baby in my arms started crying inappropriately, and the sound of a child crying always makes people feel annoyed.
"Don't cry, don't cry..."
Then she spoke to Lin Leyou, "Don't stay silent, I know you can hear me. This is your younger brother, aren't you going to come back and see him?"
Lin Leyou remained silent, clearly indicating that he wanted money, but he would absolutely not give it to him.
Just then, Lin Jiashu shouted, "Alright, Zhou Meijuan, do you need to be so polite when talking to him?"
Lin Leyou sneered. Indeed, such a good attitude was unnecessary. In his past life, they were always arrogant and haughty, except when they were asking for money, as if he were a slave who should be humble and subservient.
He was speaking too loudly just now, which startled the child, so the child cried even louder. Zhou Meijuan felt sorry for the child and said, "Why are you shouting so loudly? Never mind, you tell him I'll go and comfort the child."
Lin Jiashu took the phone. "You little brat, don't think you're safe just because you're not talking or coming back. I'll definitely find you, and then you'll have to pay me, whether you want to or not!"
Lin Leyou sneered, not wanting to listen any longer, and hung up.
On the other side, Lin Jiashu wanted to say some harsh words, but he didn't expect Lin Leyou to hang up so easily. He was furious and held his phone high, intending to smash it on the ground.
But Zhou Meijuan hurriedly stopped her, "Hey! What are you doing? This phone is brand new and cost several hundred yuan. What if you smash it? You don't care, but I do!"
Lin Jiashu was still angry, but he didn't really intend to smash the phone. He casually tossed the phone onto the table, surrounded by the sound of his child crying.
He was very happy when the child was first born, and he was happy even though the child kept crying. He had a child late in life, and the child would be raised by them from a young age, so they would definitely be very close to him.
It's definitely better than that stupid piece of junk.
However... the couple had always left their child with their grandparents, so they had no idea how to raise a child. Although it was their second child, they were complete novices.
Lin Jiashu is starting to regret it. This child is really too noisy, especially since... he was only born not long ago, and he has already reduced their savings by one-tenth.
How much does it cost to raise someone to adulthood? Food, clothing, shelter, transportation, kindergarten, primary school, junior high school, high school, and university all cost money, especially medical care, which is the most expensive thing.
Of course, the most expensive thing now is still baby formula. Zhou Meijuan is getting old and doesn't have much milk to feed her child. A can of formula costs several hundred yuan, and her heart bleeds every time she sees the formula can.
But he couldn't not buy it, otherwise what would the child eat? Although he was irritable, he still loved his youngest son from the bottom of his heart.
Zhou Meijuan finally managed to calm the child down. "What about Lin Leyou? Should we really call the police?"
Lin Jiashu: "Why call the police? Aren't you embarrassed enough? Didn't Qian Feng say that even if we call the police and find him, he'll just run away and hide somewhere else, and then we'll have to go look for him again?"
Zhou Meijuan: "Then what do you suggest we do? If this continues, we definitely won't have enough money."
Lin Jiashu, "You think I don't know?"
Zhou Meijuan said, "We have to find a way to get him to give us the money."
Lin Jiashu, "Tell me, what's your idea?"
Zhou Meijuan said, "Let's find a way to get him back. Confiscate his ID card, then he won't be able to leave."
Lin Jiashu said angrily, "Do you think I don't know? The key is how to get him back. He clearly doesn't want to come back and has cut off all contact with us."
Zhou Meijuan sighed, "Tell me, we haven't shortchanged him in any way, so why is he so resentful towards us? Is it because of university? He didn't get in, did he?"
Lin Jiashu said, "Isn't it all because of working on the construction site? I raised him all these years, can't I even let him go work on a construction site and earn some money?"
Zhou Meijuan carried the child back to her room. "Never mind, I'll think about it tomorrow. The child needs to sleep, I'll go and put him to bed..."
They temporarily gave up asking Lin Leyou for money, but only temporarily, since they were not yet at their wits' end and still had several hundred thousand yuan in their hands.
Lin Leyou knew this too, so he treated what they said as nonsense.
Xue Rui watched as the phone rang again after he hung up.
His phone was still buzzing on the other end. Lin Leyou glanced at him and asked, "Don't you have anything to say to me?"
Xue Rui leaned over and kissed him. "What did you say? Is it okay tonight?"
Lin Leyou rolled her eyes. "Don't you have anything else on your head?"
Xue Rui, "What is that?"
