Chapter 65 But I’m Already Playing
The only sound in the room was Lin Han's slightly rapid breathing.
He touched his right cheek again. His palms were full of sweat, and it felt like frost was about to form when he touched it. His hands were so cold that they trembled slightly.
He spread out his hands, his palms were an abnormal red, and he was so stiff that he hesitated to clench them again.
Lin Han had a very scary dream, but fortunately, the dream was quite compassionate and turned off the lights for him.
Lin Han sighed, not knowing who to thank. But at this moment, although he had just woken up, his eyes were very clear.
In both of his conversations with Wen, Wen left the last words to him.
Last time it was "Goodbye", this time it was "Shh, they will kill you", Lin Han already had a guess about this.
His right cheek was still cold. It was not an illusion caused by waking up from a dream, but a real thing.
Yin Yue left a palm print on him, and Wen left him with an indelible chill.
Lin Han lifted up her clothes and looked at her chest. The handprint that had not had any substantial impact on Lin Han's body gradually disappeared over time. Now it was completely invisible. There was no trace of a slight bulge when she touched it.
The traces left by Yin Yue had already gone far away, and the one closest to him was Wen.
In fact, Yin Yue and Wen have almost nothing in common. They don't look alike. Yin Yue talks a lot, while Wen doesn't speak until the last moment. More importantly, Yin Yue is full of hostility towards Lin Han. Although he did help Lin Han and save his life in the beginning, he is still full of malice towards Lin Han in his heart, while Wen has been helping Lin Han from beginning to end.
Their actions were completely different, but Lin Han clearly realized the only thing they had in common.
They all treated Lin Han as a stand-in, and they were forced to talk to Lin Han just because Lin Han was similar to that person.
No, Wen should have seen that person.
His words had already revealed this meaning, and even when he spoke to them, the black line on his lips was the punishment forced upon him by others out of jealousy or anger.
Those people are not just Yin Yue and Wen, there are many more.
They harbored resentment and were cruel towards their own people, with whom they seemed to have a deep connection, and this was especially true towards Lin Han.
"They will kill you."
As a member of "them", Yin Yue did so.
Wen did not deceive him.
Lin Han took a deep breath and got up from the bed. He felt that his body was too wet and sticky and was about to go to the bathroom to clean up.
As he walked, he kept thinking about things, thinking about his conversation with Alfred in the new world.
Just like he forgot about the live broadcast, he also forgot to ask Alfred about Wen, and the other party did not remind him either.
Lin Han didn't plan to ask again. They probably wouldn't tell him, and he already had this experience once.
He didn't even plan to tell Song Ziyi and Liu Guoqiang about this dream.
They couldn't find the reason for the handprint left by Yin Yue, and the same was true for the smell. Telling them would only add to their troubles.
Lin Han wanted to wait and see.
When Song Ziyi came out of the game cabin, the sky was just getting light.
Since the new world came into being, Song Ziyi almost even sleeps in it and will not log off unless necessary.
The reason why he came out at this time was because he and Lin Han had agreed to go home secretly together today. He thought he had to wake Lin Han up like he did yesterday, so he even stepped out of the game cabin very carefully, for fear that the sound that would not reach Lin Han's room would wake him up. When he looked up, he found that Lin Han was already lying on the sofa, looking at him quietly.
Lin Han held a steaming towel in his hand and covered his right cheek with it. The heat made half of his face red. There was a housekeeping robot watching over him, and as soon as the towel in his hand was no longer at the right temperature, it would bring him a new one to exchange.
Song Ziyi: "...What are you doing?"
Lin Han: "The temperature was set too low last night and my face was frozen."
He said it casually, and Song Ziyi didn't find anything wrong, so the matter passed.
Lin Han breathed a sigh of relief when she saw him heading straight for the bathroom. Her head felt a little dizzy from the heat, but she still sat up and drank some hot water that had been prepared long ago.
Unlike Yin Yue's palm print, the cold air left by Wen cannot be seen by the naked eye, and you can't feel it when you get close to it. You can only feel it by touching it.
Lin Han started taking it internally and applying it externally as soon as she woke up, and the effect was pretty good.
Soon, Lin Han pretended nothing happened, followed Song Ziyi into the car, and headed home.
This was Song Ziyi's idea. Nowadays, many people have given up normal sleep and spend their nights in the game cabin. If Lin Han goes back early, he will definitely be able to catch all those people at home who are secretly playing New World.
Lin Han: “…”
You know what, he was really looking forward to this scene.
So, half an hour later, when Song Ziyi's car passed by the gate of his own house without entering, no one noticed anything was wrong. It was not until it drove into the Lin family's yard and Lin Han got out of the back seat that the atmosphere began to become tense.
"Hey, Master Xiaohan, why are you back so suddenly? Didn't you say you were busy when I called you last time?"
Uncle Fu, the housekeeper who had taken care of Lin Han since childhood, changed his usual welcoming attitude. He wanted to stop Lin Han at the door and talk to her for a while, and just vaguely stopped Lin Han from going in.
At that time, Lin Han was still working and was naturally busy, but things are different now. He is now an unemployed vagrant and is not busy at all.
Lin Han: “…”
His acting skills were even worse than Lin Han's. Song Ziyi, who had taken on the role of driver, was already following behind Lin Han and laughing secretly.
"Grandma, is it time for breakfast? I left home early today and haven't eaten anything yet. It's a good opportunity for me to have something with her." Lin Han said as he walked in. Uncle Fu couldn't really stop him, as his old face was wrinkled like a bitter gourd.
Song Ziyi chimed in from behind: "Hey, I haven't eaten either. I'm coming to your house to eat some food today too. Let's go!"
The two young men walked quickly in front. As soon as they entered the door, they saw from afar that the restaurant was deserted and there was not even any tableware on the table.
"Grandma hasn't woken up yet?" Lin Han turned his head and asked.
"The old lady went to bed late last night and hasn't gotten up yet. You guys go sit down first. I'll prepare some food for you. I'll go call the old lady." Uncle Fu followed Lin Han and started to take them to the restaurant. "The husband and wife haven't gotten up yet. If they knew you were back, they would be so happy."
Lin Han: “…”
He knows for himself whether he is happy or frightened.
"It's okay, stop shouting. Why would you wake them up? I'll go back to my room first." Lin Han walked to the side and called Song Ziyi to run upstairs.
The Lin family house has only three floors, and the bedrooms are all on the second floor. Lin Han's room is on the far right side facing south.
Uncle Fu breathed a sigh of relief when he heard his words, but he saw that Lin Han, who was running upstairs, didn't even turn around and went straight to the third floor. Before he could even say "Ah, ah", the two people who were running upstairs had disappeared.
Uncle Fu: “…”
The third floor was the entertainment area. Lin Han didn't usually go there, and he wasn't sure which room was used for what. But as soon as he got there, he saw the auntie coming out of the room in the corner. When she looked up and saw him, she couldn't help but stammer, "I'll come and clean up."
Lin Han didn't know what to say for a moment. Song Ziyi was laughing so hard behind him that tears were almost coming out.
Song Ziyi: "This is too funny, hahahaha!"
Behind them, the housekeeper Fu Bo had just led his men to the stairs leading to the third floor when they saw Lin Han had already pushed open the door of the corner room.
Inside the door, five game cabins were neatly lined up. Just at the moment Lin Han pushed open the door, the game cabins opened, and the five people sat up all at once, staring at Lin Han blankly, as if they were about to turn around and lie down again.
Not only his grandmother and parents were there, but also his older brother and younger sister, who were usually very busy.
Yes, it was Saturday, so it was normal for everyone to go home together to play games and do team building. Look, they were all wearing the same color clothes.
"Xiao Han, why are you back today? Look at this...this..." Lin Jinggeng looked at his elderly mother on the left, then at his wife on the right, and his gaze fell on his eldest son and second daughter who were further away. "These were all bought by your brother and sister. It would be a shame to them if you don't play with them!"
Yu Ye nodded quickly: "Son, believe me, I don't want to play at all, it's your dad who forced me to do it!"
Lin Jinggeng turned his head in shock, full of disbelief at being betrayed.
Lin Kaile and Lin Rui looked at each other and started to blame each other: "Your eldest brother/your second sister bought it, it has nothing to do with me!"
As for the oldest lady, with her damp white hair, no one dared to blame her: "I don't know anything. I just played when they asked me to."
Lin Han looked at the five people who were sitting in the game room and seemed to be waiting for a long time. "...When did I stop you from playing?"
“…”
The room was silent, and in the end only Song Ziyi's laughter remained.
Lin Han handed over the towels that had been prepared nearby one by one and asked them to go to the bathroom to clean themselves up.
Nutrient solution is not like water, which will make people catch a cold if it gets wet. It dries up quickly and if it is not handled in time, it will stick to your body, which will be even more uncomfortable.
Half an hour later, the whole family sat neatly in the restaurant drinking porridge.
Song Ziyi, who wanted to eat for free, had been called away by the people sent from next door, and the old lady of the Song family was also able to punish him.
Lin Han confirmed with them when the misunderstanding arose, making them feel that he disliked New World so much that he couldn't even accept his family playing there. In the end, it was really just a trivial reason - supporting Lin Han's career and fearing that he would be unhappy.
When PC games are already in decline, abandoning them and embracing the new world seems like a form of giving up.
They thought Lin Han would also be very sad if he knew.
Although Lin Han didn't say or do anything, and had no objection to Song Ziyi playing in New World, as a family, they still wanted to do it.
But the New World is really fun.
The old lady was first dragged into the trap by her best friend, and then she brought four other people in the family except Lin Han in, starting a five-month journey of secretly playing in the new world.
During this period, Lin Han really didn't notice it.
"Grandma knows that your company went bankrupt, so she didn't persuade you to come and play for the time being, so she thought about waiting a little longer."
Who knew that while they were waiting, Lin Han came home and caught them all red-handed.
Five people were sitting next to him, all looking at him with silly smiles, and no one said anything, but there was a lot of noise coming and going under the table. I don’t know who accidentally kicked Lin Han, and his calf was probably bruised.
Finally, the defeated Lin Jinggeng rubbed his hands and spoke with the other four people's expectations: "Xiao Han, do you want to come and play too? Mom and Dad are both very capable and can help you."
The old lady kicked him again under the table without changing her expression. Lin Jinggeng gritted his teeth and continued, "Grandma can help you, too."
The old lady who was called winked at Lin Han. Lin Kaile and Lin Rui, who didn't dare to be rebellious at this time, also came over and flirted with Lin Han. Like Song Ziyi, they all had a strong desire to take Lin Han away.
Lin Han put down the spoon, looked from left to right, exchanged glances with everyone, and then said in a troubled tone, "What should I do? I'm already playing.
