Chapter 9: Cannon fodder, but with a strong will, he will definitely complete this mission...

After much persuasion, the system finally agreed to give him an advance of one million if the mission was successful.

After getting the promise, Ye Man's anxious heart felt more at ease.

"But you have to tell me what you want the money for."

The system doesn't care about this little money, money is just a number to the system. It's just that after looking through the plot, it can't find any place where Ye Man needs to take out so much money. Its host is hiding something from it, which makes the system uncomfortable and curious. Ye Man always gives it a feeling of being unreal and unfathomable. But after thinking about it carefully, it seems that it is just overthinking. After all, Ye Man is just a boy with a humble background, who has not finished school and has little experience.

"Yes, as long as you are willing to tell me..." Ye Man stretched out two fingers, and narrowed her beautiful eyes cunningly like a little fox, negotiating with the system, "Two hours of bedtime stories, and I will tell you."

The system thought Ye Man was teasing it on purpose. Telling bedtime stories for two hours? What kind of deal is that? It didn't believe that Ye Man was only looking for this little "benefit" of a little fight. Besides, what kind of benefit was that?

But after thinking about it, it went to search for a bunch of children's fairy tales. The emotionless mechanical voice read out the vivid and interesting fairy tales, which made the system drowsy.

Ye Man crawled into the quilt contentedly. There was the sound of the system. Even if it was a personal computer, he was not afraid to sleep alone in an empty big bed.

Otherwise, he would always hear hallucinations of knocking on the door, and he would have to hide in some narrow and dark place to fall asleep.

Ye Man had a bad sleep condition and was always awakened by dreams at night. One moment he was hiding in the shadow of the unit door, and the red and blue lights of the police car outside the door flashed alternately in another world just a step away.

He heard the adults whispering about things like "break-in", "robbery", "suspect", "not caught", "didn't see the face", etc. The corridor behind was very dark, the induction lights had fallen into disrepair, and at night there was no light at all, it was so dark that it seemed like a ferocious monster would crawl out from behind.

He didn't dare to look back, but he could feel the coldness approaching him and the cold ghost hand reaching out to his back.

If he took one step forward, he would be able to walk into the bright world outside. But he just stood there and watched, saying nothing, with a numb and indifferent expression on his young face, until a hand climbed onto his shoulder, and he still didn't move an inch.

More and more hands grabbed his arms, his legs, his neck, and finally a big hand covered with foul-smelling mud covered his face.

He watched the red and blue police lights moving further and further away from him, and he was gradually swallowed up by the deep cold, but he never made a sound.

Soon there was a group of debt collectors surrounding him, blocking out the light.

He always had nightmares, and his dreams were full of strange things. He would wake up in a cold sweat in the middle of the night. When he woke up, he faced a dark, empty room, and his heart was pounding, so he couldn't fall asleep. He had to get up to work the next day, and he was easily prone to making mistakes when he was distracted, so Ye Man thought of a way to sleep in the closet.

The room in the Chi family was bigger, and the bed was bigger too. He lay on it alone. When he turned off the lights, he always felt that there were eyes watching him. It was creepy, so he could only reluctantly say goodbye to the soft big bed and continue to sleep in the closet.

But now that the system was playing and there were people in the room, he was no longer afraid and immediately lay down on the bed happily.

He pulled the quilt under his eyes, covered his nose, and rubbed it with the tip of his nose, feeling so comfortable that he wanted to blow bubbles.

Thinking of what happened during the day, Ye Man quietly raised one hand and touched his head. He seemed to still be able to feel the warmth of the hand covering the back of his head.

He spread out his fingers and compared them. His ancestor's hands were much bigger than his.

Unlike the cold and scary ghost hands in dreams, that hand was not scary at all. It was warm and made people feel at ease.

Ye Man hesitated for a moment.

If...if he fell asleep with this hand touching his head like he did during the day, would there be another hand in his dream that was not so scary? If so, would the nightmare become less scary and would he be able to sleep better?

Just do it when you think of it!

He clumsily imitated Xu Huaiting's movements, touching his head, pretending that it was the other person who was touching his head, and earnestly coaxed himself to sleep accompanied by the upright voice of the system's recitation.

In a drowsy state, I thought that the living ancestor might not be that scary.

He protected him during the day and was a very nice person!

......

The next half month passed quickly as Ye Man got familiar with the environment at home and the use of the blind stick.

This was the first time the system encountered a blind and vicious cannon fodder. Every time it saw Ye Man stumbling and groping forward, it couldn't help but reread the original plot that was almost ruined.

Thinking that Ye Mandu is in this state and is still working diligently, from a certain perspective, one can't help but feel awe.

It is truly an example of a person with a strong will despite being disabled.

It just didn't develop in a good direction.

Soon it was the day of the birthday party for the real and fake young master of the Chi family.

The name on Ye Man's ID card has been changed back to Chi, because he has been called Ye Man since he was a child and has long been accustomed to it, so they simply added the surname Chi before his current name. Normally, everyone still calls him Ye Man, so he doesn't need to adapt to the new name.

Just as the system said, Meng Yao gave Chi Jue a very expensive gift.

The birthday party of the young master of the Chi family invited many wealthy families in Beijing. In front of so many people, Chi Jue couldn't refuse Meng Yao's face. Even though the two were still in a cold war, Chi Jue had to accept it.

The Meng family was quite polite, so Ye Man naturally received a gift from Meng Yao. However, compared to what Chi Jue received, Ye Man's gift was nothing.

Such occasions require socializing.

In the plot, Ye Man was dissatisfied with the attention Chi Jue received, so he deliberately squeezed in next to Chi's father and mother, and flaunted his identity as the real young master of the Chi family. He often openly and covertly squeezed and ridiculed Chi Jue, and even deliberately spilled wine on himself, praising Chi Jue in a green tea way.

In reality, Ye Man is holding a cane, clicking, clicking, clicking…

"There's someone on the left!"

Tick, tick, tick...

"Ahhh! Watch out for the cup!"

Tick ​​Tick...

My system is so tense that I want to take two breaths of oxygen.

"Be careful! Ye Man!"

"ah!"

People saw the four members of the Chi family, who were toasting each other and socializing, suddenly looked towards the place where the sound came from.

Chi Yan put down his wine glass and walked over quickly. "What's wrong?"

Ye Man covered her stomach, tears welling up in her eyes: "My stomach hit the corner of the table."

Based on his experience, it must be green.

Chi Yan frowned: "Didn't I tell you to stay in the rest area and not wander around?"

There were a lot of people at the banquet, and Ye Man was not very familiar with using his blind stick, so Chi Yan specially cleared out a private rest area for him and arranged his favorite food and drinks in advance. He took him around as a greeting, and then took him there, telling him to call someone if he needed anything and not to wander around by himself.

The last time he wandered around, he ran into Mr. Chu, and then he got injured. The last time he let Chi Jue take him out to play, he wandered around again, and even offended the person in charge of the Xu family. This time, Chi Yan specially arranged someone to watch over Ye Man, but who knew that he still slipped away.

He stared at his obedient younger brother, his brows deeply knitted into a "川" shape.

Hard to understand.

Chi Yan encountered the biggest obstacle in her life.

He thought his younger brother was as worry-free as Chi Jue. Ye Man obviously looked like a well-behaved child.

Ye Man agreed very well, but it was impossible to keep him from wandering around.

He is a vicious cannon fodder, and he has to jump around in an annoying way from time to time.

The impact on his stomach was quite strong, but Ye Man didn't feel much pain.

He cried out in surprise because he was worried that something on the table would be knocked off.

It’s not that he is very tolerant to pain. On the contrary, Ye Man is actually very intolerant to pain, but he is used to ignoring his injuries.

What if I don’t ignore it?

Even if he cried in pain, no one would comfort him.

If you bother Ye Guowen, you will get beaten.

Later, Ye's mother passed away, and Ye Guowen left and never returned home. He wandered around outside alone and could not afford to cause trouble to others. Over time, he learned to ignore the injuries he suffered.

Ye Man thought the matter was not a big deal and wanted to continue looking for trouble with Chi Jue.

He immediately got into the state, and said to Chi Yan pitifully: "I'm so scared to be alone, there's no one familiar around me, big brother, can you let brother Chi Jue come to accompany me?"

In such an important social occasion, Chi Jue was not allowed to socialize with those people and expand his network. Instead, he called people over to accompany him, a useless blind man. How bad!

When the two of them are alone together, can't he bully the other person however he wants?

Chi Jue became a poor creature who fell into the clutches of the vicious cannon fodder, with no one to turn to for help.

He is such a clever little guy who can adapt to circumstances.

Ye Man was very proud and wanted to be praised.

He has definitely completed this mission!

Chi Yan was silent for a second, and her wrinkled brows relaxed.

Secretary Li, who was following beside him, saw that President Chi, who was always noble and cold, turned away silently amid his brother's soft complaints.

"I see."

"Sorry." Mr. Chi rubbed his brother's head awkwardly.

Chi Jue listened to the conversation between the two without missing a word, walked over and held Ye Man's hand: "I'm sorry, Xiao Man, it was my brother who neglected it."

Ye Man blinked.

He capriciously asked him to come over and keep him company, so why wasn't he angry and instead apologized to him?
