Chapter 30, Escaping a Calamity
Zhong Bingxuan felt that Wang Boyang's gaze was fixed on her, so she didn't dare to walk too fast. Instead, she walked slowly, giving Wang Boyang and the others the illusion that they were chasing after her.
In fact, as soon as Zhong Bingxuan left Wang Shixuan's courtyard, she immediately ran away, and only stopped running away after she had run far away.
That was close. Wang Boyang is a bit too perverted. He's not a masochist, but he actually enjoys being insulted.
What's the story behind the three women around Wang Jingjing?
Both of Wang Jingzhu and Wang Jingjing share the same surname as Wang Boyang. Zhong Bingxuan initially thought it was just a coincidence, but the appearance of the lowly dancer has aroused her suspicions.
In ancient times, it was not uncommon for families to marry into each other. If you were lucky, nothing would happen; if you were unlucky, you might end up with a deformed child.
Was this the reason why Wang Boyang found another dancer to have a child with?
No, what about Wang Jingjing? She did give birth to a daughter.
If it's all about marriage between relatives, then it shouldn't just be that Wang Jingzhu and Wang Boyang's child has problems and they need to secretly keep a dancer; Wang Jingjing's side should also have problems.
Zhong Bingxuan still lacked experience, had simplistic ideas, and misjudged the complexity of this instance.
Not long after she left, another furtive figure appeared in Wang Shixuan's courtyard. It was none other than Steward Li, whom Zhong Bingxuan had seen before.
The fact that the player playing as Wang Shixuan died was known not only to Zhong Bingxuan, but also to Butler Li, the master's confidant. The difference was that he planned to use Zhong Bingxuan to scout ahead. Only after Zhong Bingxuan came out unharmed would he enter Wang Shixuan's courtyard to investigate.
This morning, Butler Li also followed Zhong Bingxuan to Wang Shixuan's courtyard, but like Zhong Bingxuan, he found nothing.
That night, when Butler Li saw Zhong Bingxuan go over again, he waited outside for her to come out.
Seeing Zhong Bingxuan leave in a hurry, Butler Li still had some concerns, fearing that the situation inside was too dangerous, and did not want to go in.
However, considering that he was a player with special abilities, and that even a native could come out unharmed, there was no reason why he, a player with such unique advantages, would die inside. So he started to peek inside.
In the pitch-black environment, without even the light of lanterns, Butler Li's heart pounded, and he hesitated. But when he heard the conversation between Wang Boyang, the head of the Wang family, and some unknown creature not far away, he mustered his courage and went to the door of Wang Shixuan's bedroom.
Fortune favors the bold. By uncovering even a little bit of his bizarre life story, he can obtain the location of the VIP box ticket. Once back, he can enjoy beauties, gourmet food, and strange artifacts.
It's obvious that Butler Li isn't very capable, otherwise his understanding of the VIP rooms would be so limited.
If it were Fu Yuchen, he would know that the so-called beauties, delicacies, and magical artifacts all require expensive points to purchase; there is no such thing as a free thing in the world.
Even though Zhong Bingxuan's first-class cabin offered many free packages, she could only enjoy them by risking her life.
As a nobody, Butler Li was unaware of the intricacies of the situation and was obsessed with getting rich quick and climbing the social ladder, thus putting himself in danger.
"Wang Boyang, you big liar! You promised me you would take good care of the baby."
"I will certainly do what I promised you. Look at Qiu Ling, isn't she a beautiful and graceful young woman?"
"Was she used as a host by that Wang Jingzhu? Wang Boyang, even tigers don't eat their cubs. You cold-blooded bastard, you don't even care about the life of your own daughter. Wang Jingzhu is already dead and has become a monster. If you let her possess the baby's body, won't that shorten the baby's lifespan? The baby will be killed by Wang Jingzhu sooner or later."
“That was a life Jingniang gave her. What does it matter if Jingniang wants to come back?”
"Fine, fine, now you're too lazy to even pretend anymore. I'm going to fight you."
"It's not good to be muddleheaded your whole life; you have to be stubborn and delve into secrets you shouldn't know."
"Ah!! Wang Boyang, I curse you to die a horrible death, and that bitch Wang Jingzhu to be reduced to ashes in the end."
...
The conversation inside reached Butler Li's ears clearly, startling him so much that he quickly backed away. He didn't notice the steps behind him and accidentally fell down with a loud thud.
Oh no, we've made too much noise; the strange things inside are about to emerge.
Butler Li had a bad feeling. He tore open the teleportation talisman and was about to make a quick getaway when a pair of dark hands reached out to grab him just as the talisman was about to take effect.
They forcibly pulled Butler Li out of the teleportation range of the teleportation talisman and into a pitch-black room.
"Since you're so eager to know the truth, why not just ask me, my good steward?"
"Master, master, I was wrong! I promise I won't let my curiosity get the better of me again! Please forgive me this time!!"
...
A terrifying scream came from Wang Shixuan's bedroom, but if someone passed by Wang Shixuan's yard, they couldn't hear a sound at all. It was clear that the noise that Butler Li heard at the gate earlier was deliberately caused by Wang Boyang.
"Now that the hidden dangers have been resolved, it's time to go find the wife who ran away in a fit of jealousy."
Wang Boyang's figure twisted and turned in the darkness, and in the blink of an eye, the entire eerie thing disappeared into the space.
The trip to Wang Shixuan's bedroom was thrilling, but rewarding.
As Zhong Bingxuan was contemplating whether to continue inspecting other areas, a chill ran down her spine, giving her a sense that something terrible was about to happen and disaster was imminent.
Even though no warning sounded, Zhong Bingxuan went straight back to her room, covered herself with the blanket, and pretended to be asleep.
The danger was that just as Zhong Bingxuan covered herself with the blanket, a cold wind blew in from outside, and an unknown figure appeared in Zhong Bingxuan's room, causing the surrounding temperature to drop sharply.
Zhong Bingxuan kept her eyes tightly shut, pretending not to notice anything unusual around her, and continued to sleep soundly.
"So they've left? Looks like they'll have to be appeased this time."
Hearing that familiar voice and its helpless words, Zhong Bingxuan stopped her body from shivering and waited motionless for the other person to leave.
It turns out it was that scumbag father, Wang Boyang. Why did he chase after him, and from what he said, he wanted to coax his wife?
He's not a complete scumbag, always surrounded by women; he's just pretending to be a devoted lover.
Zhong Bingxuan, who missed the follow-up in Wang Shixuan's room, mistakenly believed that the dancer in Wang Shixuan's room was his lover. With so many men having mistresses, no one would believe that he was so infatuated with the original owner's mother.
Zhong Bingxuan wanted to wait for Wang Boyang to leave before checking the other rooms, but he stayed in her room for a long time without leaving.
As Zhong Bingxuan waited, she became sleepy and fell asleep.
Once she regained consciousness, Zhong Bingxuan realized that she had unknowingly fallen asleep last night.
I originally thought I should explore a few more rooms to uncover the hidden secrets of this instance, or perhaps try to reunite with my teammates.
However, while investigating Wang Shixuan's room, they encountered Wang Boyang, that perverted scumbag father, which caused the night's operation to be ruined before it even began.
