As I stepped outside, I heard noises coming from upstairs.
"Are you leaving without saying goodbye again?" The birthday boy stood upstairs, staring intently at Liu Nian.
"Goodbye," Liu Nian replied decisively.
"Youth is wonderful," Liu Nian couldn't help but admire as she looked up at Lu Jiaqi.
The moonlight shone on Lu Jiaqi's face, giving her a sacred look, and her white princess dress further accentuated her purity.
This world is divided into classes; we are ultimately not from the same world.
Accepting a benefit means having to keep your promise.
Before leaving, Liu Nian couldn't help but take one last look. She really was like a princess, a princess indeed!
Lu Jiaqi felt inexplicably flustered. Her sixth sense told her that if she didn't go downstairs now, she would never see him again.
She wanted to go downstairs, but her mother gently stopped her.
"Let him go, it's better for everyone!" Her mother smiled at her, uttering cruel words.
"What have you done? Why are you doing this to me!" Lu Jiaqi was filled with despair, and tears streamed down her face like broken beads.
My feeling was right, and that was the truth: they drove away the person who made me feel at ease.
“Growing up in a family like yours, love is a luxury, especially now,” Jiang Haiyan advised patiently.
"Mom knows, she knows everything. That young man is very outstanding, honest, loyal, and reliable. The only problem is that he has no background. He can't bring you stability. If that's the only problem, he will never be able to marry you."
There's a reason why the saying "marrying someone of equal social standing" has been passed down for so long.
Love, as it is called, is about following your feelings without regard to poverty or wealth.
So-called family affection means that if a young man is good at everything but has no money, his parents will do anything to break them up, even if their daughter will hate them for the rest of her life.
The mundane realities of daily life will eventually destroy any love; they cannot risk gambling that this man will bring happiness to their daughter.
Seeing her daughter cry, Jiang Haiyan felt a pang of heartache, but she didn't offer any comfort. The world is cruel, and she couldn't protect her forever.
She has to try to grow up, but growth comes at a price; those who are unwilling to give up anything will gain nothing.
In the end, the mother and daughter hugged each other and wept uncontrollably; right and wrong are subjective.
Lu Jiaqi is a good girl. She will still like Liu Nian, but she will figure things out eventually.
After leaving the city lord's mansion, they encountered Yan Kuan and Mu Feng at the gate, who were discussing sending more people to his auction house.
"The supplies for you have been prepared. Would you like to check them?" Mu Feng asked as he saw Liu Nian approaching, his tone revealing neither joy nor anger.
He had a vague idea of what was going on with this massive blood loss, but it wasn't something he should concern himself with.
If it were a matter concerning the young lady, he would not approve of her marrying this man with no connections, even though he admired him.
"No need, I believe the city lord wouldn't be so petty." Liu Nian said calmly.
Two truckloads of supplies were driven to the entrance of the Cat's Eye Three Sisters Hotel.
After arranging the driver, Mu Feng left. Liu Nian invited Yan Kuan to ride with him, and he did not refuse. He waved to his driver to drive away, and the two of them left together in a large truck loaded with supplies.
There was no small talk; the entire journey was marked by silence.
Liu Nian suddenly spoke up: "Can you do me a favor?"
"Go ahead," Yan Kuan replied to Liu Nian, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.
"Forward these supplies to Zhang Long, Zhao Hu, Wang Chao, and Ma Han..."
A whole bunch of names, and strangely enough, Liu Nian could still remember them.
"All of them?" Yan Kuan was a little shocked; Liu Nian was unpredictable.
“Yes, all of them,” Liu Nian said solemnly.
"Okay, I'll definitely help you out!" He knew all these people, so he couldn't refuse.
"Are you still coming to the auction the day after tomorrow?" Yan Kuan asked hurriedly from the car as Liu Nian was about to go inside.
"It's up to you, I'll just take the money." Of course I'll take the reward; do I look like a charity ambassador?
There was nothing to move from the hotel, so Liu Nian packed a few things and checked out.
"Young man, are you leaving so late?" the landlady asked in surprise after Liu Nian explained his purpose.
"Of course, I bought a house outside." Knowing they wouldn't see each other again, Liu Nian chose to lie to the landlady.
"Oh." The proprietress had an "I see" look on her face.
That's normal; capable young people should naturally have their own place to live.
This isn't a peaceful era; house prices used to be so high that you'd be burdened with them for a lifetime. Now, houses are practically being sold off at rock-bottom prices.
After saying goodbye to the landlady, Liu Nian left B City without looking back. His destination was the service area where he had stayed last time.
The area, along with the military camp and City B, forms a triangle, and it's close to the military camp, which is exactly what Liu Nian needs.
Another point is that caravans prefer to travel to the village where the fungus team is stationed, as it is usually undisturbed and is very suitable for Liu Nian.
With just over ten minutes left before the system's curfew, there was still time, so Liu Nian stepped on the gas and decisively drove out of B City.
They rushed non-stop out of the slums, trying not to harm innocent people.
As soon as the system notification arrived, Liu Nian had already moved away from the crowd.
The car was returned to the spatial storage, and Liu Nian summoned the summoned creature.
He needs a big battle now, both to calm himself down and to gain experience points.
Changing jobs is what Liu Nian needs to worry about now; everything else can take a backseat to it.
To hell with advanced dark magic!
By the moonlight, seeing a dark mass of nocturnal monsters flying towards them from afar, Liu Nian was filled with heroic spirit: "Let's fight to our hearts' content!"
This battle was quite easy. He already knew the attack methods and types of the night-stalking monsters, and his familiar combat style allowed Liu Nian to quickly accumulate another wave of experience points.
Each monster gives between 300 and 500 experience points, and you only need to kill 200 night monsters to level up.
Of course, if there are any clueless green-skinned people, I wouldn't mind getting some more merit points.
Greenskins give the most experience points, around 600 for a goblin and as much as 1,000 for an orc. Orc berserkers or mini-bosses give even more experience.
Liu Nian roughly concluded that he wasn't constantly monitoring the experience bar.
Soon, the monsters that were no match for Liu Nian were defeated again. After cleaning up, Liu Nian finally returned to the abandoned service area.
Liu Nian chose a spacious and bright room as her accommodation, and after simply taking a bed, she fell asleep fully clothed.
...
Unbeknownst to him, as he drove at night, he was spotted by a follower of the Eye of Truth. The follower was curious about who was in the car and why they were leaving so late.
It would have been better if I hadn't looked; once I did, I realized she looked somewhat like the person I remembered.
He quickly ran home and rummaged through a drawer in the corner, finding a yellowed piece of paper.
The paper had been turned over countless times and was already a bit wrinkled. A human face was drawn on it.
He carefully held the portrait close to the candlelight, looking so cautious that one might mistake it for a priceless treasure.
The portrait of Liu Nian is so lifelike that the believer covered the left eye of the face in the portrait and his breathing became rapid.
Found it! I found it myself!
Hahahaha, a chilling laugh echoed from the humble room!
