Chapter 81

Lin Yirou heard the gangster's screams and felt pity for him: "Please let him go. He didn't do it on purpose. He may have been desperate and robbed people."

The woman who saw injustice and tried to help raised her head, and Nan Tao saw that it was Lu Yao.

Just as Lu Yao was about to speak, Lin Yirou stopped him and said, "Thank you, but I didn't suffer any loss. Please let him go."

During the struggle, the gangster's eyes flashed with ferocity, and he pulled out a knife from his pants and stabbed Lu Yao.

Nan Tao shouted, "Lu Yao, get out of the way quickly."

However, her voice was unheard.

A knife was inserted fiercely into Lu Yao's lower abdomen, and blood kept flowing out of his abdomen.

Lin Yirou was so frightened that she was stunned.

The gangsters took the opportunity to pick up the mobile phone and money on the ground and quickly left the crime scene.

Nan Tao was so angry that she hit Lin Yirou, "Why are you still standing there? Call an ambulance."

Nan Tao looked at Lu Yao with a dazed look in his eyes. It was obvious that he had lost too much blood and was about to faint.

Lin Yirou was still standing there blankly, crying foolishly.

Nan Tao was very upset and kept circling around Lu Yao anxiously.

Finally, an old lady who was picking up trash in the alley saw it and immediately called 120 for emergency assistance and also helped to call the police.

The scene changed, and Nan Tao saw her brother Nan Bo, wearing a black suit and holding a black umbrella, attending Lu Yao's funeral, with a blank look in his eyes, as if he was dead silent.

Nan Tao circled around Nan Bo with a distressed look on her face. She caught a glimpse of Lin Yirou also attending the funeral and became furious.

Lin Yirou walked to Nan Bo with red eyes and cried, "Sister Lu was trying to save me. It's all my fault. If I could, I would rather take the blame for Sister Lu."

Nan Tao angrily slapped Lin Yirou, but she only slapped the air, and her teeth itched with hatred.

Nan Bo stared at Lin Yirou's red and swollen eyes, stunned and absent-minded.

Nan Tao followed Nan Bo's line of sight and saw Lin Yirou's eyebrows and eyes. Only then did she notice that Lin Yirou's eyes were very similar to Lu Yao's.

While Nan Tao was stunned, the scene changed again.

She saw Nan Bo guarding Lin Yirou like a guardian angel, helping Lin Yirou solve all problems, but he always turned a blind eye to Lin Yirou's various unintentional temptations.

Lin Yirou was heartbroken and entangled with another man.

The man's face was blurry, as if covered by a layer of gauze. Nan Tao couldn't see his appearance clearly, but she felt vaguely that he looked familiar, as if she had seen him somewhere before.

Afterwards, Nan Tao saw Lin Yirou juggling between two men and enjoying being pursued.

Nan Tao was furious. She wondered if Lin Yirou had any shame. Especially when she saw Lin Yirou sneaking into Nan Bo's office and stealing the group seal for another man, her anger reached its peak.

Wasn't her brother nice to Lin Yirou? Yet, Lin Yirou actually did such an unfaithful thing.

Afterwards, the share price of Nan Group plummeted, and hundreds of billions of market value evaporated overnight. The huge group was on the verge of collapse and was in a turbulent situation.

Nan Tao is extremely disappointed with Nan Bo. It was clearly Lin Yirou who indirectly caused Lu Yao's death, but her brother did not take revenge. Instead, he was obsessed with protecting Lin Yirou, as if he had lost his mind.

Just when Nan Tao was angry, she saw rows of words floating in the air, telling a sweet love story with Lin Yirou as the heroine, and Nan Bo as the most loyal and affectionate male partner by Lin Yirou's side.

Afterwards, the text turned into pictures, revealing the final ending of the male supporting role.

Nan Tao saw Nan Bo said to Lin Yirou coldly: "You are not her!"

Then, Nan Bo went to Lu Yao's grave, stroked the photo on the tombstone, swallowed a large amount of sleeping pills, leaned quietly on the tombstone, and fell asleep like a sleeping beauty.

Nan Tao screamed in horror, suddenly sat up from the bed, gasping for breath.

Yu Zhengyang held the person in his arms and patted his back, "What's wrong? Did you have a nightmare?"

Nan Tao hugged Yu Zhengyang's waist, buried her head in his arms, and said in a muffled voice: "We are all cannon fodder."

Yu Zhengyang didn't understand, "What?"

Nan Tao said in a depressed tone, "If the world we live in is a novel, with many male and female protagonists in the novel, and we are all cannon fodder under the feet of others, what should we do?"

Yu Zhengyang laughed and said, "Why do you think so?"

Nan Tao thought, how can I not think like this? I have already had nightmares twice.

The first time she dreamed about a novel that everyone loves, she was the vicious female supporting role, and all the relatives and lovers around her liked the heroine who everyone loves. This time, the nightmare came up with a sweet little novel, and her brother Nanbo was the affectionate male supporting role.

Haha, the world he lives in is a big hodgepodge, with all kinds of novels, and they are fully utilized. His brother Nanbo alone plays two roles, one is an unimportant role in the popular novel, and the other is a loving supporting actor in the sweet story.

Nan Tao: "Answer me first."

Yu Zhengyang pinched the thin flesh on the back of Nan Tao's neck, thought for a while, and answered seriously: "I will make them cannon fodder."

Nan Tao asked: "What if fate is irresistible?"

Yu Zhengyang raised his eyebrows: "You have to find your own way."

Nan Tao turned over and pressed on the man, "I think what you said makes sense."

Since his brother became Lin Yiru's guardian because of Lu Yao's death, what if Lu Yao hadn't died?

Nan Tao recalled the plot in her dream and thought about the alley that night. If she could have helped Lu Yao escape, she would not have died.

When she came to her senses, Nan Tao noticed that her pajamas had been taken off, and she pretended to be angry and asked, "What are you doing?"

Yu Zhengyang's handsome face was filled with a hint of cold temptation under the moonlight.

Nan Tao's heart beat faster and she was immersed in the beauty of the man, instantly forgetting the lingering nightmare and the problem of being cannon fodder.

A smile flashed across Yu Zhengyang's eyes. He turned over and lowered his head to cover his mouth.

The southern peach tree chirps a few times, and I don't know what year it is.

The next day, Nan Tao woke up late and hurriedly took Yu Ze onto the plane to the destination for the seventh live recording of "Mom Takes Care of the Baby".

No matter how fast or slow they hurried, Nan Tao and her son were still the last group to land on the plane and get on the bus.

In order to cover up the marks on her neck and back, Nan Tao put a lot of foundation on her body and specially chose a long-sleeved dress with a bud-shaped neckline.

Jiang Hui laughed and asked, "Wearing so much?"

Nan Tao pretended to be calm and said, "Chinese doctors say that you should wear thicker clothes when you turn on the air conditioner, otherwise you will easily get uterine cold and stomach pain."

Wen Manqing: "You can wear something thinner inside and a small cardigan outside, otherwise it will be very hot outside when you get off the car later."

Nan Tao was afraid that she couldn't hold back any more, so she quickly picked up little Yang Xuan beside her and teased, "Do you miss Aunt Taozi?"

Little Yang Xuan nestled shyly in Nan Tao's arms and said in a baby voice, "Yes."

Nan Taomeng's heart melted and she gave little Yangxuan a kiss on the cheek.

Little Yangxuan became even more shy and buried her head in Nan Tao's arms, unable to come out.

Everyone burst into laughter.

Not long after, the program team's bus stopped in front of a two-story B&B. The B&B was in a very ancient style, with a large courtyard in the front with a man-made mini pond, corridors with carved beams and painted buildings, and various ancient-style pavilions.

Behind the yard is a two-story ancient-style house that looks very distinctive.

As usual, the four families lined up in a straight line to listen to the village chief's introduction to Yunli City and the next tasks of the guests.

The task this time is not difficult. All you need to do is take care of the B&B behind you in the next three days and receive every tourist. Compared with the previous episodes, this episode's task is so thoughtful and romantic.

After the village chief finished introducing the mission, he left, leaving the free space to the four groups of guests.

Nan Tao and his group pushed their suitcases into the B&B, opened the glass door, and saw a woman cleaning inside.

When the woman heard the door open, she put down the mop and bucket in her hands, stood up stiffly, and said shyly, "Hello, I'm the cleaner here, my name is Manshi."

Nan Tao was attracted by the woman's gentle voice and looked over. The woman had a simple low ponytail and a standard oval face with delicate features, but her complexion was pale and her body was thin, as if she was malnourished. Although she looked very young, her eyes had a sense of maturity that came from having experienced many ups and downs.

"Hello, I'm Nan Tao, and the people next to me are..." Nan Tao introduced everyone to Man Shi one by one, and finally said, "For the next three days, we will manage this B&B."

Manshi nodded and said, "The boss has told me, don't worry, I will clean the place carefully."

Nan Tao was attracted to Man Shi and said with a smile, "It's okay, don't feel pressured."

Manshi nodded, then left with the mop and bucket, apparently to get some water.

Nan Tao, Jiang Hui and others were assigned their respective tasks.

Since Nan Tao had experience as a cashier in an Internet cafe before, this time she is the cashier of the bento B&B, responsible for passengers' orders, order returns, charges and refunds.

Nan Tao was handling business at the cashier when she heard the sound of a suitcase being pushed and pulled at the door.

When I looked up, I saw a man and a woman pushing the door and walking in.

The woman wore a large braided sun hat on her head, a newly-launched light yellow floral dress from M, new nude high heels from D, and a classic wide black bag from L on her shoulder. Her outfit was worth a lot of money.

The woman took off her sun hat, revealing her small face. Her facial features didn't seem perfect, but when put together they gave her a uniquely pure temperament.

"Zhe, it's so hot~" The woman hugged the man's arm affectionately, speaking in a coquettish voice.

Nan Tao felt a chill, she didn't expect the voice and the man's appearance to be so different. Her eyes couldn't help but fall on the man's face to see his reaction.

The man looked gentle and elegant, with a cool temperament and was very tall, which matched well with the petite female companion beside him.

Yunzhe heard Li Qian's coquettishness and said lovingly, "I told you it was going to be hot, but you insisted on going out for a trip. What if you get too hot?"

Li Qian stuck out her tongue and said coquettishly and aggrievedly: "I just want to go out and play with you. You are busy with work every day. It's been a long time since you accompanied me."

Yunzhe pinched Li Qian's nose and said, "I've spoiled you."

Li Qian leaned against Yunzhe affectionately, "Who made you like me?"

The two walked to the cashier.

Nan Tao took the ID cards of the two people and saw the names of Li Qian and Yun Zhe on them. Then she entered the ID cards to check the order. The two of them booked a double room, a single man and a single woman, obviously a couple.

"Here are your room cards, please take them." Nan Tao said.

Yunzhe took it and said, "Thank you."

Yunzhe handed the room card to Li Qian, "Take it and go in first. I'll go get the rest of the suitcases."

Li Qian: "No, just accompany me to the room first and then go get the suitcase."

Yunzhe: "Don't make a fuss, I'll be back soon."

Li Qian: "You are not kind. I am afraid you are hot and want you to rest for a while."

Yunzhe lowered his head and kissed Li Qian on the top of her head, "Be obedient."

Li Qian smiled happily, "Okay, go ahead."

Nan Tao watched the two showing affection in front of her and was forced to eat a mouthful of dog food.

Li Qian pushed the suitcase and walked towards the stairs in high heels. At the corner, she bumped into Man Shi who was walking out with a bucket and a mop.

The water in the bucket spilled all over the floor, and some drops accidentally splashed onto Li Qian's skirt.

Li Qian saw the face of the woman who bowed her head and apologized, narrowed her eyes, raised her hand and slapped her.
