Things about spending money on games (17)

Shen Tang didn't chat with Mr. Yan for too long. He just briefly explained some of the male protagonist's preferences, said goodbye to the old man, and rode his motorcycle back again.

Gu Rou was originally waiting for her and Gu Yanlin to go out and celebrate, but now it seems that it can't happen.

Shen Tang's figure quickly disappeared from everyone's sight. Yan Lin, who had been looking at the girl in the car, slightly bent his head and slowly closed his eyes.

During the entire process of returning to the residence, Shen Tang seemed overly calm. He was not as active as usual at all, and he gripped the handlebars much more lightly.

"Host, are you okay?" Xiao Fukudai asked cautiously. He could clearly feel the host's slightly depressed mood, which was a little different from her usual self.

"Ah?" Shen Tang replied in a daze, "I'm just sleepy. I was too nervous about Yan Lin's matter before, and I was afraid that he would be hurt by those people. Now that I've relaxed a little, I feel a little sleepy."

Little Lucky Bag: ...Okay, it turns out he was overthinking it.

"But host, if the mission is completed this time, how are you going to get rid of the male protagonist? The overall system requires that the male protagonist's obsession be eliminated." Little Lucky Bag nagging in Shen Tang's ear like an old mother, but the other party waved his hands heartlessly.

"This is simple. The male protagonist cannot remember what happened in the game in real life. As long as he can successfully escape from the game, the so-called obsession will not be brought into reality."

"Host, have you forgotten that there are some problems with the plot in reality?" Little Fortune Bag couldn't help but remind him in a low voice.

Shen Tang hummed and gave a solution, "If it's really as you said, then we'll erase part of the hero's memory."

How cruel! Little Lucky Bag silently sympathized with the male protagonist, but still nodded and said "OK".

Not long after, Shen Tang finally returned home safely. When she pushed the door open, she was startled by Gu Rou inside.

"Xiao Rou, what are you doing?"

She looked at the girl running around in the hall with a puppy on her head, and some confusion appeared on her face. Could it be that the heroine's mental state was stimulated by something?

Gu Rou's body stiffened when she heard the familiar voice, and her head turned towards Shen Tang little by little, "Tang...Sister Lin, why are you back?"

They are all still in this world. Could it be that nothing happened to Gu Yanlin?

"Sister, where is Gu Yanlin?"

The girl obediently put the puppy on the sofa, and looked at Shen Tang with her clear eyes. Seeing that he didn't respond, she cautiously tried, "Did something happen just now?"

Shen Tang rubbed her forehead with her slender fingertips, and a hint of hesitation appeared on her fair face. After thinking for a while, she decided to tell the whole story. Although Gu Rou and Yan Lin were not related by blood, they had lived together for several years. Instead of hiding the fact that Gu Rou and Yan Lin had left, it would be better to make things clear as soon as possible. After all, it is better to suffer a short pain than a long one.

"Xiao Rou, your brother has returned to the Yan family now." Shen Tang looked at the girl's face with surprise, and frowned slightly. "I know this may be difficult for you to accept, but he has now gone back with the old man of the Yan family. Maybe... I won't see him again for a long time."

"What!" Gu Rou's eyes widened slightly, "How could he just leave like this?!"

Didn’t this person promise her that he would find a way to bring her and Tangtang back to reality? How could he go back on his word?

Shen Tang thought that she was unable to accept the bad news for the time being, so he told Gu Rou in detail what had just happened, including the fact that Madam Yan had maliciously instigated someone to kidnap Yan Lin. Only after hearing this did Gu Rou calm down.

It turned out that it was the old man of the Yan family who did it. She wondered why this man didn't act as agreed. But if that was the case, the time for her and Tangtang to leave here would be postponed again. If nothing unexpected happened to the protagonists, she would not be able to return to reality.

Gu Rou was silent for a while, then smiled sweetly at Shen Tang, "It's okay. I'm also very happy that my brother has found his real family. It's just that I don't know when we will meet again."

Shen Tang reached out a hand and patted Gu Rou's shoulder. "It's not difficult for you to meet him. Master Yan is not an unreasonable person. You two have lived together for so many years. Master Yan probably wants you to visit your brother more often."

Gu Rou nodded, Tang Tang was right.

"Xiao Qing's plan to go out today has to be cancelled. Remember to celebrate with your brother about his award," Shen Tang said as she picked up her phone and did some calculations. The male lead was graduating in less than a week, so it was time for her to prepare for the final items in the game.

Create a death escape ending, and cancel the in-game account to exit the game. Shen Tang's fingertips quickly moved across the phone, and in the process, he gave the principal of Lingyun No. 1 Middle School a bonus specially given to the male protagonist.

Shen Tang, who had made up his mind, quickly had a meal with Gu Rou and returned to his room to plan his escape. If she remembered correctly, the banquet where the male protagonist officially returned to the Yan family was the last stage of the plot in the game. Mrs. Yan would find ways to invite the male protagonist out to prevent him from taking over the identity of the heir of the Yan family at the banquet and tampering with his car.

She only needed to drive the car away before Mrs. Yan on the day the plot came to save Yan Lin from the accident. Shen Tang lay down on the bed softly, her mind starting to wander.

After a while, the clear ringing sound of a cell phone rang in the quiet room.

The woman stretched out her arm and held the cell phone in front of her. When she looked closely, she saw that it was a call from Yan Lin.

Shen Tang hesitated for a moment and pretended not to see it. She didn't press the call button and let the phone screen go black. She didn't breathe a sigh of relief until the ringing sound stopped completely. Unexpectedly, the next ringing sounded in her ear just after the ringing sound stopped.

"This little bastard is never going to stop, is he?" Shen Tang turned on the screen again with some annoyance, but found that the number on it was a string of unfamiliar numbers.

Unknown caller?

Shen Tang paused for two or three seconds before answering the call, waiting for the other party to speak first.

"Lin Tang, is that you?"

Unlike Yan Lin's gentle and pleasant voice, the voice of the incoming call was slightly deep, which made Shen Tang vaguely feel familiar. She seemed to have heard this voice somewhere a long time ago, but she couldn't remember when for a while.

"Heh," a chuckle came from the other end of the phone, "You still don't remember me at all like you did then, Lin Tang."

"Who are you?" Shen Tang asked slowly, waiting for a reply from the other party. How could she recognize him if he was playing a trick on her like that?

Fortunately, the other party did not intend to beat around the bush with her, and quickly told her the purpose of his visit, "I am Yan Chen, and you also know that the day of Yan Lin's graduation ceremony is the day he returns to the Yan family, I hope you can accompany me to go out and relax, just to help me relieve my boredom."

"There are so many people who can keep you company, why did you call me?" Shen Tang asked suspiciously, "Aren't your two little followers with you every day? It would be enough to have them accompany you."

"Lin Tang, how long are you going to pretend?" Yan Chen's tone was a little impatient, "Aren't you afraid that something will happen to Yan Chen? Now the only people who will accompany him back to the Yan family are me and Chen Ru. You accompany me to relax, and I can tell you what Chen Ru plans to do."

"Is your brain okay?" Shen Tang didn't know what to say for a moment. She just felt that this person's brain seemed to be burned, and he actually ran over to say these things to her.

However, if she could really know what Chen Ru was going to do, it would be good for Yan Lin to get back the inheritance smoothly. She didn't say anything, and carefully considered the feasibility of this matter. After all, she was just an insignificant maid in the game, and she had weapons on her, so she didn't have to worry about what these people would do to her.

"Forget it, fine, but you have to promise that your mother won't do anything to Yan Lin, otherwise I don't mind letting you feel the beating you received before again." The moment Shen Tang agreed, the other party seemed to be in a much better mood.

"It's better to get beaten than for someone to not even look at me," Yan Chen said with relief, "Now that he's back at the Yan family, I should have some chance."

Yan Chen's last words were spoken in a voice as soft as a mosquito's hum. Shen Tang did not hear it clearly. However, she saw that Yan Chen did not have anything else to say, so she hung up the phone without thinking, and lay on the bed with her eyes closed to rest for a while.

At the same time, Yan Lin, who had returned to the Yan family, had a cold face, his eyes fixed on the call record on his phone that could not be connected. He pursed his lips and sulked like a child, but the person who was willing to pretend to coax him when he was angry was gone.

The young man was somewhat deflated, and looked like a wilted flower, which made Mr. Yan feel quite disappointed. He had thought that his son had been a romantic man since he was young, but he never expected that his grandson would have the same character as him!

"Where's Yan Shuo? Didn't I tell him to wait here?" The old man stroked his beard angrily and glared at the housekeeper beside him, "He has such a bad temper that even his father can't control him, right?"

"Dad, how dare I?" A leisurely voice came from the stairs. The middle-aged man with dark peach eyes adjusted the gold-rimmed glasses on his face and slowly put away his clothes. "You are packing up now that you know your son is coming back."

"You little brat, talk properly. What father would talk like you?"

"Well, welcome home?" The man's reflective glasses made it impossible to tell his expression. Yan Lin looked at his so-called father expressionlessly. His first reaction was "a gentleman with a scumbag". Was this the kind of person his mother fell in love with?

Yan Shuo walked up to him, and Yan Lin's calm eyes met his gaze. Yan Shuo just stretched out his hand to touch Yan Lin's head, but was slapped away by him.

"Stay away from me." The disgust in the boy's eyes still made the man stand there in a daze.

Those eyes and that face were too similar to his ex-wife. He hadn't noticed it before he looked closer, but now Yan Shuo realized that this man was truly his son.

Yan Shuo panicked and asked his father for help, but the old man shook his head helplessly, "You caused the trouble by your own sins. You have to solve it yourself. There is nothing I can do for you."

"Lin'er?" Yan Shuo's voice was a little dry, "You and your mother look so much alike."

"Husband!" The atmosphere between Yan Shuo and Yan Lin was originally in a stalemate, but the sudden female voice made Yan Shuo's face turn completely black. Does this woman have any vision?

The young man's expression changed when he looked at Yan Shuo. At this moment, his face was full of sarcasm. "Since Mr. Yan and his wife are so loving, I'd better not get in the way here."

Yan Lin said no more and walked to the room that Master Yan had arranged for him in just a few steps.

Yan Shuo's face looked a little ugly: "Chen Ru, did I ever tell you not to interfere in my affairs?"

He took off his glasses and said seriously, "We have tortured each other for so many years, it is time for us to part ways amicably."
