They all lived on the first floor. Only Zhao Feiyang and Chu Nian lived on the second floor. Therefore, everyone could see that Zhao Feiyang treated Chu Nian differently.
Upon seeing Mao and Zhang appear, Chu Nian waved to Li Shuangshuang and said, "Shuangshuang, come upstairs."
Li Shuangshuang's heart trembled when she saw Mao Yongheng and Zhang Xiaotong come out of the room one after the other and into the hall. These two had been beaten up these past few days, yet they were always so fierce and menacing towards her. If it hadn't been for Chef Jia being there last time, she probably would have been slapped by Zhang Xiaotong.
So as soon as she heard Chu Nian call her, she quickly went upstairs.
When Mao Yongheng arrived at the lobby downstairs, he looked up at Chu Nian on the second floor and asked, "Liu Nian, let me ask you, where did you hear all those things you said, like that awakening is level 120, or that witch fattens up us living souls to eat?"
Chu Nian chuckled lightly, a hint of mockery in his voice, and then...
Mao Yongheng and Zhang Xiaotong, who had just arrived, suddenly found themselves losing levels rapidly, only stopping after dropping to level ten.
Mao Yongheng, his face deathly pale, demanded, "Liu Nian, what have you done to us?"
Chu Nian said coolly, "This is my reward for getting me into this game." She then smiled, a hint of mischief in her eyes, before adding in a cool, clear voice, "The rest, family discipline!"
"Liu Nian, what... what do you mean?" Zhang Xiaotong roared.
Before the words had even faded, two people darted out from the left and right sides of the hall. They were the Li brothers, who grabbed Mao Yongheng and Zhang Xiaotong and began a new wave of attacks.
Li Shuangshuang had already walked to Chu Nian's side. Seeing the two people being beaten below, she finally realized and said, "Sister Nian, so it turns out that the reason they were beaten by the Li brothers every day was because you instigated them." She had previously thought that Chu Nian had encouraged Zhao Feiyang, and that Zhao Feiyang had ordered the Li brothers to do this. It turns out that Zhao Feiyang hadn't been in any trouble at all.
Chu Nian said, "I just felt that these two brothers looked like they were involved in organized crime, so they should be good at fighting. Therefore, I used them according to their abilities."
"So it was you... Liu Nian, it was you all along..." Zhang Xiaotong roared hysterically, her whole body aching from the beating.
Because she and Mao Yongheng are only level 10 now, their health is dropping faster, and they are much less resistant to beatings than before. The pain is several times greater than when they were beaten before, and they are screaming in pain.
Suddenly, Mao Yongheng, with snot and blood streaming down his face, said, "Niannian, I know I was wrong. Please forgive me. It was all my fault before. I know you love me very much. You did this because I was tricked into this game, and between my life and our love, I chose my life. I married Zhang Xiaotong just to save my life. Niannian, please forgive me..."
Upon hearing his words, Zhang Xiaotong couldn't help but shout angrily, "Mao Yongheng, you scum!"
Li Shuangshuang asked in surprise, "Sister Niannian, you and this Mao Yongheng were... in a romantic relationship before?"
Chu Nian smiled wryly, somewhat helplessly, "Yes!" After a pause, she added, "Not only that, after he became a vegetable, I worked myself to the bone to pay for his medical expenses. But in order to marry Zhang Xiaotong, he dragged me into this game."
Li Shuangshuang listened with a sigh and said, "No wonder people say 'Cherish life, stay away from scumbags'." She glanced up and saw Zhao Feiyang on Chu Nian's other side, and noticed that his face was not very good, and his expression was somewhat bitter.
She shook Chu Nian's arm and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong with Lord Feiyang? He doesn't seem very happy."
Chu Nian said, "I think he's probably worried about whether he'll live or die in the future, and if he does live, where he'll live!"
Li Shuangshuang: "Isn't he living a good life now?"
Chu Nian chuckled softly, poked her forehead with her finger, and said reproachfully, "You silly little thing!"
She turned to Zhao Feiyang and asked, "Although you seem to have already chosen your side, I still want to ask you now, which side are you on?"
Zhao Feiyang: "Of course I'm on your side. Even if I weren't, I know I wouldn't live much longer. As you said, the people who developed this game won't let someone like me live forever." His expression grew even more bitter as he finished speaking.
Li Shuangshuang asked in confusion, "What are you talking about? What do you mean by standing on which side? I don't quite understand."
Chu Nian: "You stay in your room. Remember, unless I call you, don't leave your room no matter what you hear. You can't even stick your head out of the door. Do you understand?"
Li Shuangshuang looked puzzled, but nodded nonetheless and said with a simple and honest expression, "Oh."
Chu Nian: "Go back to your room!"
Li Shuangshuang then turned and went downstairs.
This is a classic naive and innocent female lead! Chu Nian thought to herself, there's a saying that fools are lucky. She successfully applied for a job at Xiangyang Villa not long after she entered this place, which is why she was able to survive until the end.
Although she didn't get married and have children like others when she was alive, she eventually got the chance to stay with the male protagonist in the underworld, which is not bad.
After Li Shuangshuang left, Zhao Feiyang asked her in a low voice, "When does the final battle begin?"
Chu Nian chuckled and said, "Do you have to stay this clear-headed all the time?"
Zhao Feiyang: "If I weren't sober, I probably wouldn't have lived this long! The system has already made all your information public, and what you just said is tantamount to declaring war on the system. How confident are you?"
Chu Nian: "Me?" She chuckled, "I'm not very confident, but my people seem to have found the person I was looking for!"
Zhao Feiyang asked curiously, "The person you're looking for? Who is it?"
That's why they say there's strength in numbers. While Lan Dian was busy casting a spell on Zhang the witch, Simon Feld found a dark place based on the characteristics Chu Nian had pointed out to him.
In the story, the place where the male protagonist often appears after entering the underworld is this dark and gloomy place.
Chu Nian guessed that this place should be the connection between the mortal realm and the underworld.
Simon Feld's Great Void Hand was incredibly powerful; with a single grab, he tore open the void and entered...
Therefore, following the original plot, Chu Nian has already contacted the Underworld and learned from the message sent by Simon that the Underworld immediately dispatched Soul Reapers and Underworld hackers after learning about the game.
"I said," Chu Nian said seriously, "I don't want to get involved in this decisive battle or anything like that!"
Zhao Feiyang asked in surprise, "What...do you mean?"
Chu Nian: "I will leave first."
Zhao Feiyang asked in surprise, "Leave? How will you leave?"
Chu Nian: "I have found a way out."
Zhao Feiyang asked, "What about Li Shuangshuang?"
