"Landlord? Concubine? Bellyband? Oh my god... What kind of bizarre setup is this?"
Pay three months of lifespan currency to trade for this thing?
Gu Changsheng felt that if she really picked up this bellyband, then she’d be out of her mind!
"Put down that bellyband, I saw it first!"
But before Gu Changsheng could put the thing back, a sharp voice ca from afar...
Gu Changsheng froze...
Involuntarily, she looked towards the source of the voice...
She saw two teenage boys and a girl running towards her, and naturally, it was the girl who had spoken...
"Are you talking about this thing?" Gu Changsheng said instinctively, raising the bellyband in her hand.
Did she hear wrong?
This thing, yet soone actually wants to fight over it?
This really is...
All sorts of weird tastes exist, huh...
"Put down that bellyband, I saw it first!" The girl glared with wide eyes, her gaze towards Gu Changsheng seed like it could spit fire.
"Um..." Gu Changsheng was stunned upon hearing that.
They really ca to snatch this bellyband...
Honestly, Gu Changsheng truly felt that spending three months of lifespan currency for it was not worthwhile at all, but...
Yet soone ca to snatch it...
This thing, which no one cared about, Gu Changsheng naturally had no desire to pick up, but if soone ca to snatch it, wouldn’t that prove it’s a hot commodity?
So, Gu Changsheng suddenly didn’t want to give up this bellyband!
"You, wisely put down that bellyband and hand it over to Miss Huang!" One of the boys trailing the girl stepped forward with the intention to impress when he saw Gu Changsheng standing dumbfounded, "Miss Huang, once you have this bellyband, you will have evidence to accuse Auntie Du of having an affair, and thus can regain control of the Huang family’s managent! Miss Huang, rest assured, I will definitely help you!"
"Hmph! That wretch Auntie Du, dares to compete with . I am the legitimate eldest Miss of the Huang Family, not like her, who crawled out from so gutter, tarnishing our family’s reputation..." Miss Huang snorted coldly, her arrogance apparent upon hearing this.
"..." Hearing this, Gu Changsheng’s corners of the mouth twitched...
Oh my god...
If she hadn’t heard wrong, this Miss Huang should be the daughter of Landlord Huang, right?
A landlord’s family...
Where did they get a family reputation?
Gu Changsheng really wanted to ask, but she held her tongue!
"So then, are you done? Once you’re done talking, please move aside, I need to enter the city..." While the two boys were gossiping on behalf of Miss Huang, Gu Changsheng stealthily picked up the bellyband, then quietly slipped it into her sleeve pocket...
Although spending three months of lifespan currency for a bellyband seed quite a loss to Gu Changsheng, but...
Seeing Miss Huang and the others’ faces change, Gu Changsheng suddenly felt it was worth it!
"You! You! Where’s the bellyband? You really took that bellyband!" Miss Huang was left frantic, stamping her feet when she saw it was no longer on the ground.
"Well... Isn’t this bellyband on the ground ant for soone to pick up?" Gu Changsheng innocently blinked, "Moreover, even if you got this bellyband, it wouldn’t actually be of any use..."
The mont she picked up the bellyband, Gu Changsheng realized the hidden task within it...
Honestly, the task wasn’t even remotely related to Miss Huang, instead, it would make her penniless...
"What do you an by that? Do you know whose bellyband that is?" Miss Huang frowned imdiately, looking displeased.
"Of course I know whose bellyband it is, isn’t it your father’s concubine’s?" Gu Changsheng shrugged, then stepped forward to pat Miss Huang’s shoulder, "But haven’t you heard the saying, ’catch the thief with the loot, catch the adulterer in a pair’? You haven’t caught her in the act, your father’s concubine isn’t foolish, how could she possibly admit guilt? Even if you returned with her bellyband to accuse her, she could deny it outright, and you’ll have wasted your effort..."
"You..." Miss Huang was dumbfounded for a mont, her whole deanor dimming...
Gu Changsheng’s words certainly made sense to her, but she too desired greatly to see Auntie Du fall from grace, inevitably leading her to lose composure...
"Do I have to just watch Auntie Du flaunt her power? See our Du Family being claid by her?" Miss Huang was troubled.
"Don’t worry Miss Huang, we’ll certainly help you. We’ll ensure Auntie Du doesn’t have her way!"
"Yes, we’ll definitely help you, Miss Huang. If you need our help, just say the word..."
"..."
"..."
The two boys stepped forward again to pledge their loyalty upon seeing Miss Huang’s distress.
anwhile, Gu Changsheng shook her head, seizing the gap in their chatter to walk past them, heading towards the bustling city...
Upon picking up the bellyband, Gu Changsheng received the covert mission...
She was to take the bellyband to Auntie Du, assist Auntie Du in murdering Landlord Huang and seizing the Huang family’s assets; the bellyband marked Auntie Du’s location, Gu Changsheng rely needed to follow the coordinates to find her...
"This really is ghostly, what in the world is this..." Inside, Gu Changsheng was an uproar of frustration, feeling helpless...
She actually needed to deal with a concubine’s affair here?
This...
Was truly beyond Gu Changsheng’s expectations!
Of course, the most crucial part was that Gu Changsheng didn’t know exactly what reward she’d receive for undertaking this covert mission after sacrificing three months of lifespan currency...
However, Gu Changsheng vaguely suspected that Miss Huang and her companions were likely NPCs of this World of Ti, which ans characters set within the world, not actual people...
Of course, this was rely Gu Changsheng’s speculation...
Currently, the most important thing for Gu Changsheng was to quickly reach the city and find Auntie Du...
Needless to say, her motivation was to swindle a al first and foremost; yes, she was hungry!
With the mission’s coordinate pointers, it beca much easier for Gu Changsheng to find the city amidst the apocalyptic black-and-white scenes, and after about two Shichen Chinese Tis strolling, Gu Changsheng, famished to the point her chest stuck to her back, finally spotted a dilapidated city from afar...
That’s right, dilapidated!
It resembled a city left in ruins after a fire disaster...
"Whew! Finally arrived!" Gu Changsheng had barely had ti to rejoice before she learned of the entrance fee of a year’s lifespan currency to enter the city!
Upon hearing this news, Gu Changsheng almost lost it entirely!
Especially after finding out that even a single sesa cake sold on the street costs two months of lifespan currency, Gu Changsheng was truly...
Robbery!
This was blatantly daylight robbery!
At this rate, Gu Changsheng feared she might not survive over three days in this World of Ti...
