Qin Lin didn’t expect to hit a wall and had to give up, feeling a bit regretful. At this point, she hadn’t even thought about a normal relationship.
Who knew that ignoring him wouldn’t deter Huo Jingchen? When he saw Qin Lin speaking with other boys, he got anxious and rushed over to promise her anything she had asked for.
Two years later, the Huo Family found Huo Jingchen, but Qin Lin chose this mont to break up. In fact, she had caught wind and wanted to prevent her family from using Huo Jingchen, causing his misunderstanding.
In anger, Huo Jingchen returned to the Huo Family, focused on studying, and quickly rose to prominence. Reuniting with Qin Lin, the two felt like strangers, and more misunderstandings erged between them.
Huo Jingchen didn’t believe Qin Lin had forgotten him, but after probing repeatedly, the other party didn’t seem to care. Disheartened, he agreed to the Huo Family’s proposal for an alliance with the Li Family. In truth, there was no need for an alliance as the Huo Family realized she had feelings for Huo Jingchen.
Now, the Li Family was left with the heiress alone, and the company was managed by a professional manager. The benefits of marrying into the Li Family were obvious.
Huo Jingchen didn’t mind anymore but still wanted to try whether doing so would make Qin Lin anxious. If she wasn’t, he’d leave it be for life. For this reason, he deliberately showed interest in the Commissioner in public.
Not long after, Huo Jingchen got into a car accident, and then the group entered the Infinite World.
The Commissioner was just cannon fodder; upon learning the unbelievable truth, she went off-balance and eventually died in the Infinite World.
Her good sister, Wei Wenlan, held resentnt over this and repeatedly caused trouble for Qin Lin and Huo Jingchen, eventually triggering the rules and getting killed by monsters.
At the ti of death, the Commissioner regretted her actions, blaming herself for not keeping her cool and dragging her good sister down.
Her first wish was: to successfully break through the challenges with her good sister Wei Wenlan and live a good life, protecting Wei Wenlan forever.
The second wish was: to annul the marriage contract with Huo Jingchen, regardless of whether he survived, and to publicly reveal Huo Jingchen’s actions.
"Chenchen, thank you for coming," Huo Jingchen was already in front of Ah Chen. At this mont, he was genuinely grateful to her, feeling sowhat complicated inside, seeing true intentions at crucial tis. In such uncertain situations, for her to choose to co, he couldn’t help feeling guilty.
Even though Qin Lin ca and he knew she cared for him, he wasn’t quite happy.
These two both disregarded life and death for him, leaving him at a loss. Soon he stopped thinking too much, as surviving to get out was the priority.
However, only four people had entered, and one more person was needed to initiate the level.
Ah Chen glanced at Qin Lin and Wei Yao, her eyes curiously resting on Qin Lin: "Are you quite familiar with Miss Qin too?"
Huo Jingchen was montarily at a loss, unsure of how to explain.
Qin Lin nevertheless replied with a smile: "I was curious, thought it was just a dream, yet it’s real. Now we’re here, still unsure if we can make it out alive. Huo Jingchen, you really got killed."
Her semi-joking, open manner drew no suspicion, not even from Wei Wenlan.
Indeed, besides wanting to help Huo Jingchen, people ca here driven by curiosity.
"Wonder who the last person will be?" Wei Yao said, sowhat worried whether the last person would show up.
Upon receiving hints from outside, he worried about gathering enough people. He even approached people who got along well with Huo Jingchen and was rejected. It wasn’t anyone’s fault; given the life-threatening nature, who would agree easily?
As expected, upon entering, besides Huo Jingchen only Qin Lin was there at the sa ti.
He knew Qin Lin and their story, feeling a bit regretful about it.
Seeing Li Chen appearing, his feelings grew complex.
If they survived, Huo Jingchen would have to choose between two won. Wei Yao hoped his good brother would be happy, knowing his good brother’s choice was Qin Lin. Without Qin Lin, he seed to lose humanity. Despite Li Chen being good, she wasn’t his brother’s chosen one. Should they escape, he might have to talk with Jingchen seriously to avoid a lifelong regretful decision.
Ah Chen moved to the villa’s main door, sealed with tape.
"Tried before, couldn’t tear it off," Huo Jingchen said, "have to wait until the numbers are enough."
In this world they are likely spirits, not knowing how long they’ve been here, hunger absent.
Ah Chen, despite capability, had no intention to touch the sealing tape.
The Infinite World didn’t force people inside; entry was a choice.
She planned to beat the levels, taking Wei Wenlan out.
The Commissioner had perished at the first level; what lay ahead intrigued her.
At this ti, Wei Wenlan was praying: if the numbers couldn’t be t, she and Chenchen could leave, leaving Huo Jingchen to fend for himself.
Honestly, she always felt Huo Jingchen didn’t love her good sister intensely.
Who wouldn’t want to marry her sister, given the vast Li Family?
Qin Lin appeared calm but was anxious inside. If the numbers fell short, Huo Jingchen wouldn’t be saved.
She lifted her gaze slightly toward Ah Chen’s spot, yet despite any intuition, Ah Chen showed no interest. Toward Qin Lin, she felt indifferent; the Commissioner had no issues with this person. She solely detested Huo Jingchen’s deceit and irresponsibility.
As another half day passed, nobody ca.
Wei Yao wandered left and right anxiously, muttering about needing one more person.
Huo Jingchen was more composed, planning to converse with Qin Lin should ti run out, to ease regrets.
As less than two hours remained, Huo Jingchen prepared to say goodbyes to familiar faces.
At that mont, a figure erged from the mist, halting his next move.
Wei Yao jumped with joy: "Soone’s coming!" He patted Huo Jingchen’s shoulder, "Jingchen, you’re worth it—people willing to risk their lives for you."
Huo Jingchen was heartfelt; likely only Wei Wenlan was insincere, solely for Chenchen.
Astonishingly, four people sincerely gamble lives for him—life indeed is rewarding.
The person erged from the mist; Huo Jingchen paused, retracting his earlier thought, as there should be three.
"Why him?" Wei Yao’s eyes widened, incredulous. Of all people, it couldn’t be this guy?
"It’s Bai Xingwen," Wei Wenlan was shocked, "Are Bai Xingwen and Huo Jingchen close? Weren’t they arch-enemies? Is there so hidden story? Chenchen, do you know anything?"
Ah Chen shook her head: "Never heard they were close."
"Everyone surprised seeing ? I’m surprised too, didn’t expect this place exists."
"Why are you here?" Huo Jingchen inquired, suspecting Bai Xingwen might want friendship.
"Stop your speculation, just curious here, couldn’t miss out on this event." Bai Xingwen approached the villa entrance, the tape fluttering upward by a breeze.
He didn’t hasten to push the door but asked Ah Chen: "If Huo Jingchen dies here, when we’re out, consider , Miss Li. How about it?"
He liked competing with Huo Jingchen for so reason.
Ah Chen shook her head denying: "Better not."
"How am I worse than Huo Jingchen?" Bai Xingwen fud.
Ah Chen chuckled: "Lacking a bit of fate, alright, let’s go, we can enter."
