Chapter 136
Of course, the only one looking ready to pick a fight was the boss.
Yun Youyou trailed behind him the entire way, swinging her hands and humming a little tune, as relaxed as could be.
Bang!
The boss kicked the front door open with impressive flair and roared, “Where’s your boss?! Tell your boss to get out here!”
Xiaomei came over at the sound.
“Who’s making such a racket in our place?”
The moment he came out, he saw a malicious-looking old man, as well as Yun Youyou and Ji Lin behind him.
What was going on?
Xiaomei’s fish brain couldn’t quite make sense of it.
The boss planted one foot on a chair, crossed his arms, and spoke with undisguised malice.
“I’m the boss of Scream Hostel. Hurry up and tell your boss to come out. Stop hiding in there like a coward! You see these two behind me, don’t you?”
The boss pointed proudly at Ji Lin and Yun Youyou.
Xiaomei nodded blankly. “I see them.”
The boss let out a smug snort.
“These two are my capable subordinates. With looks like theirs, they crush you lousy seafood on sight! And you lot dare to steal business from me? Know your place!”
Xiaomei: ???
They hadn’t seen each other for a few days, and the lady boss had somehow become someone else’s capable subordinate?
Seeing Xiaomei still standing there in a daze, the Boss of Scream Hostel flew into a rage.
“I told you to call your boss out here! Otherwise, I’ll smash this dump to pieces!”
Xiaomei said helplessly, “But our boss is already here.”
The boss snapped, “You still dare to mess with me?”
Xiaomei looked pitiful, weak, and helpless.
“But our boss really is already here!”
The boss looked half convinced and half skeptical.
His gaze swept around the room.
Including himself, there were only three people and one fish in the lobby.
So where was the boss of this villa?
The boss looked around suspiciously, and finally, his gaze settled on the wooden table in front of him.
He rapped his knuckles against the table, pressed his face to it, and asked, “This is your boss?”
Xiaomei: …
He had never seen anyone with such a stupid head.
Speechless, Xiaomei had no choice but to call out to Yun Youyou behind him.
“Boss!”
The Boss of Scream Hostel slowly turned his head to look at Yun Youyou.
His eyes were three parts disbelief and seven parts fury at having been deceived.
“You’re actually the boss of this villa?!”
Yun Youyou said, “Uh… actually, I have a twin sister from the same father but a different mother. She looks a lot like me, so maybe the people here mistook me for her.”
The boss roared, “Do you think I’ll fall for your lies again?! How could there possibly be a twin sister from the same father but a different mother?!”
Yun Youyou laughed awkwardly. “Hahaha… You’re really too smart.”
The boss became even angrier.
He looked at Ji Lin.
“And what about you? Don’t tell me you’re also an employee of this place.”
Just then, Lu Keke heard the noise outside and came out of his room.
He had just woken up and was still rubbing his eyes.
When he saw Ji Lin, Lu Keke instinctively called out, “Dad.”
Then he turned to Yun Youyou and called, “Mom!”
Yun Youyou gave him a thumbs-up.
“Baby, you do kind of know how to make people mad.”
Lu Keke: confused.jpg
The boss went completely berserk. “You even have a child together! Too much! This is just too much!”
His shrill, ear-piercing voice tore through everyone’s eardrums and woke up everyone in the entire building.
Yun Youyou hurriedly covered Lu Keke’s ears.
“Mom! Blood!”
Lu Keke looked up at Yun Youyou’s face in terror.
Yun Youyou touched her face and realized there was blood all under her nose.
That piercing voice was truly not to be underestimated.
Ji Lin handed a handkerchief to Yun Youyou.
While Yun Youyou was wiping away the blood, the boss’s pitch-black pupils abruptly constricted, and his four limbs planted stiffly against the floor like a spider’s.
More and more black hair covered his long limbs. His abdomen gradually rounded out, and several breathing holes appeared across it.
The boss’s true form was actually a Giant Spider.
Quite a few Players who heard the commotion ran out of their rooms.
But the moment they saw such an enormous spider crouched in the lobby, their legs went weak, and they fled right back into their rooms.
A thick stream of white silk shot out from the Giant Spider’s abdomen.
Yun Youyou quickly pulled Lu Keke aside to dodge.
Unfortunately, a strand of silk still caught Yun Youyou’s ankle.
The sticky silk was nothing like an ordinary spiderweb. It was not fragile at all; instead, it was as tough as iron wire.
Yun Youyou felt like her foot was about to be torn off.
“Take him away first.”
Yun Youyou handed Lu Keke, who was in her arms, to Ji Lin.
It was not that she was some saint, but she really could not bear to watch Lu Keke get eaten by the Giant Spider.
Only a few seconds passed before another thick mass of spider silk sprayed toward them.
This time, it was not just her ankle. Yun Youyou’s entire lower body was wrapped up in spider silk.
Ji Lin had a dagger in hand and was about to come rescue Yun Youyou, but the Giant Spider spitefully sprayed a huge stream of venom at him from the fangs on its chelicerae.
Ji Lin’s gaze turned cold. He had no choice but to dodge with Lu Keke, throwing the dagger toward Yun Youyou as he moved.
The venom landed on the floor with a sizzling hiss.
The floor tiles were corroded straight through, leaving a large hole as a cloud of yellow smoke rose from it.
While Ji Lin was drawing the Giant Spider’s attention, Yun Youyou hurriedly grabbed the dagger and started cutting at the webbing.
Who knew what this stuff was made of? No matter how she cut, she could not slice through it.
After hacking away for ages, she had only barely managed to cut through half of the webbing.
The Giant Spider handled everything with ease, spraying venom at Ji Lin while still keeping an eye on Yun Youyou’s movements.
Every time Yun Youyou was about to cut through the spider silk, it would spray another huge pile of silk at her.
Yun Youyou was almost too exasperated to even get angry.
It looked like she and Ji Lin had thoroughly enraged this spider.
As for Xiaomei and the other seafood creatures, they had long since hidden back in their rooms at Yun Youyou’s signal. After all, if they stayed here, they would only be serving themselves up on a platter.
Lu Keke saw that the situation had reached a stalemate, and he grew anxious too.
“Take my head!”
Lu Keke removed his own head from his neck, gathered all his strength, and hurled it out with all his might.
The Giant Spider let out a disdainful snort, lifted one leg, and kicked Lu Keke’s head away.
Lu Keke: My head!!!
Fortunately, Yun Youyou still managed to spare a moment amid the chaos and caught Lu Keke’s head.
That was close. Her ghost son had almost become a headless monster.
The Giant Spider had probably gotten tired of playing around.
It began slowly moving toward Yun Youyou. Whenever Ji Lin tried to approach, it would spray out another huge stream of venom.
Yun Youyou could only watch helplessly as the Giant Spider crept closer and closer.
She could even see the thick black hair on the Giant Spider’s legs.
Yun Youyou could not help sighing in admiration.
“Wow, you have so much leg hair!”
Giant Spider: …
Taking advantage of the Giant Spider’s momentary daze, Ji Lin seized the chance to place Lu Keke in a corner, then appeared behind the Giant Spider without anyone noticing.
The distance was too close. The Giant Spider had no way to dodge.
But fortunately, it still had a hostage in its grasp.
