Chapter 29: I was wrong

"Mom, why don't we reveal He Yingxue's situation to those big families? I believe that if those big families knew about He Yingxue's situation, they would definitely be interested in her," Li Wenqian's eldest son said after thinking for a moment.

Hearing this, Li Wenqian immediately shook her head.

"Are you stupid? If those big families knew, they would definitely have their most outstanding young men marry He Yingxue. Are you harming her or helping her?"

"Moreover, such a thing can easily be found out. If He Yingxue were to resent us, even if she destroyed us, with those big families backing her, your father He Qingyun probably wouldn't dare to do anything to He Yingxue."

"So, don't mention your terrible idea anymore. You're not harming her; instead, you're helping her."

Hearing this, the room immediately fell silent.

After a moment, Li Wenqian thought for a bit and said, "Perhaps, we can inadvertently let your father know about this idea, and then let your father take the initiative to contact those big families. This way, even if He Yingxue resents someone, she won't resent us."

"And if it succeeds, those big families will remember your father's good deed, and it will be increasingly beneficial for your father's future development."

"The better your father's future development, the more you will gain in the future. In this situation, we are indirectly using He Yingxue."

"I think this method is feasible," the eldest son quickly stated upon hearing his mother's words.

"I also think it's feasible," the youngest son also nodded quickly.

...

In a small villa.

At this moment, He Yingxue was excitedly typing.

She was constantly sending messages to someone she had saved as 'Big Sister'.

"Sister, do you know? I was so thrilled to see my dad's expression today. At first, he looked like he wanted to eat me alive."

"But after I cast the Mage's Fireball, his face immediately changed, becoming very fawning..."

"Also, you didn't see the look on that woman Li Wenqian's face; it was as ugly as could be, and her youngest son too..."

"Sister, tomorrow I'm going to inherit the inheritance my mom left me. I'm a Mage now, and my dad can only let me inherit my mom's inheritance obediently..."

"Once I inherit the inheritance my mom left me, I'll be a multi-billionaire. If you need money then, just tell me..."

It was clear that He Yingxue was extremely excited at this moment. Even though the other party hadn't replied with a single word, she was still sending messages with immense joy.

In Qian City, Xu Muyan was currently looking helplessly at her phone, which was constantly flashing with messages.

She hadn't expected He Yingxue to tell her everything that had happened on her side, down to the smallest detail.

From He Yingxue's messages, Xu Muyan also learned a lot of information about He Yingxue.

"Is this the drama of a wealthy family's internal struggle?"

Xu Muyan had a big scoop today.

However, He Yingxue's description also gave her a sense of satisfaction, like a protagonist in a female-oriented novel who is bullied by her stepmother, then suddenly gains a golden finger and turns the tables on the villain.

...

In the game at this moment.

Xin Zhongze was doing the quest to clear the path from Novice Village to the main city.

He was walking along an official road, and along the way, he had already encountered several waves of monsters.

These monsters were all the type that would swarm and gang up on Xin Zhongze as soon as they saw him.

These monsters gave Xin Zhongze the feeling that they were very intelligent, unlike the rigid monsters in Novice Village.

Moreover, after clearing several waves of Level 11 monsters along the official road, Xin Zhongze actually encountered a group of Level 12 monsters, which was simply outrageous.

In Novice Village, monsters of the same level were already stronger than players. Now, there were monsters two levels higher than him, and it was a whole group.

In such a situation, if Xin Zhongze were just an ordinary person without any cheats, he would absolutely not be able to complete the quest to clear the path between Novice Village and the main city.

What Xin Zhongze didn't know was that because this quest was too difficult, many people trapped in Novice Village could only ever live there.

Some people, perhaps by constantly outmaneuvering these monsters with their wisdom and slowly grinding, might be able to complete the quest after several years or even decades.

Of course, the death rate was also the highest when completing this quest; nine hundred ninety out of a thousand people died here.

To clear the path from Novice Village, according to normal game circumstances, it would require at least a force of over 50 people, working together, to possibly clear this Novice Village path in a short amount of time.

Fortunately, Xin Zhongze was not an ordinary person; he was someone with cheats.

After a night, Xin Zhongze cleared 6 waves of Level 11 monster groups and 4 waves of Level 12 monster groups, finally clearing the path from Novice Village to the main city.

When Xin Zhongze had dealt with the fourth wave of Level 12 monsters and walked a bit further, he then realized that the entire Novice Village was covered by a huge barrier.

However, just as Xin Zhongze walked out of the barrier and tried to return, he found that he seemed unable to enter the barrier anymore.

Therefore, this barrier only allowed exit but not entry, so he could not return to Novice Village.

Seeing this situation, Xin Zhongze immediately became anxious.

Because his wife, Xu Muyan, was still inside Novice Village and hadn't come out yet.

After trying again and finding that he truly couldn't return to Novice Village after leaving its barrier, Xin Zhongze immediately chose to exit the game.

"Wife, wife, something happened."

Around five in the morning, Xin Zhongze woke up the sleeping Xu Muyan.

"What's wrong? What happened?" Xu Muyan asked Xin Zhongze groggily.

Hearing Xu Muyan's question, Xin Zhongze quickly explained the situation in the game.

"Wife, you need to enter the game right now and leave Novice Village along the area where I've already cleared monsters, otherwise, if too much time passes, I'm afraid high-level monsters might wander into the cleared area. Then you could be in danger," Xin Zhongze told Xu Muyan.

Although Xu Muyan was also a Level 10 player, she was currently a Warlock who only knew Healing Skill and had very little offensive power.

Hearing Xin Zhongze's words, Xu Muyan finally realized the seriousness of the situation and immediately lost all her sleepiness.

"I'll enter the game right now and leave Novice Village with you," Xu Muyan nodded, then was about to enter the game.

"Wait a moment, call He Yingxue too. She's a Mage, so even if she encounters high-level monsters, she'll have a fighting chance," Xin Zhongze quickly stopped Xu Muyan and said.

Hearing Xin Zhongze's words, Xu Muyan quickly took out her phone, found a contact, and dialed it.

Soon, the call was connected.

"He Yingxue, enter the game immediately. I'm waiting for you in Novice Village. You have five minutes. If you're not there in five minutes, I'm leaving first, and you can stay in Novice Village by yourself from now on."

After Xu Muyan finished speaking, the voice on the other end of the phone quickly said, "Sister, I'm entering the game right away. Wait for me."

Both parties hung up the phone.

Soon, Xu Muyan entered the game world, and her figure disappeared from the bedroom.

Seeing Xu Muyan enter the game, Xin Zhongze also quickly entered the game and waited outside Novice Village.

Inside Novice Village, He Yingxue saw Xu Muyan, but then she recalled her complete memories and couldn't help but shrink her neck.

"Well, He Yingxue, you pretended to be innocent with me before. What do you say now?" Xu Muyan questioned He Yingxue with a "furious" expression.

"Sister, I was wrong, I'm sorry..." He Yingxue quickly apologized and admitted her mistake, being as humble as possible.

Outside the Novice Village barrier, after waiting for more than half an hour, Xin Zhongze finally saw two women run out of Novice Village.

Seeing this, Xin Zhongze immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
