Chapter 15

Tao Jinran stared at Yun Youyou curiously, waiting for her answer.

“Um… I suppose I’m a tenant,” Yun Youyou replied.

Yun Youyou couldn’t quite tell if the baby-faced girl in front of her was human or a ghost.

Tao Jinran nodded and enthusiastically took Yun Youyou’s arm. “Which room are you in? I’ll take you up with me.”

The Game hadn’t said anything, so Yun Youyou had no idea which room she was supposed to be in.

As her fingers brushed against something, she suddenly realized she was holding an object.

Yun Youyou looked down and saw it was a key.

“I’m in Room 303.”

“What a coincidence! I’m on the third floor too! Right next door to you.”

Tao Jinran had already familiarly picked up Yun Youyou’s luggage. She trotted ahead and turned back to call out, “Let’s go!”

Yun Youyou had no choice but to follow.

When she opened the door, Yun Youyou was nearly shocked.

The living room looked decent enough, but why was the bedroom so dilapidated?

The bed in the center of the room was wobbly, looking as if it might collapse onto the floor at any moment.

Yun Youyou paused. “Is your room this sparse too?”

Tao Jinran shrugged helplessly.

“Yeah, I don’t know why the Game put us in such a dump. In a place this run-down, the thought of ghosts popping out at night makes me even more scared.”

Wait!

After hearing Tao Jinran’s words, Yun Youyou suddenly realized that not only was Tao Jinran a Player, but she also mistook Yun Youyou for one.

If she knew Yun Youyou was actually a Ghost NPC in the Game, she’d probably regret helping her with the luggage.

Yun Youyou wasn’t foolish enough to volunteer her identity to others.

She simply let out a subtle sigh.

She hoped Tao Jinran wouldn’t mistake other ghosts for humans next time.

Tao Jinran didn’t catch the meaning behind Yun Youyou’s meaningful look and insisted on enthusiastically carrying the suitcase inside.

Yun Youyou felt bad about troubling her further. “I’ll do it. Thank you so much for today.”

Tao Jinran didn’t let go.

She glanced at Yun Youyou.

Glamorous red lips, captivating eyes, and long, wavy black hair cascading down to her waist-she looked every bit the delicate beauty. Her voice was soft and gentle, the very image of a hothouse flower who had been well-protected.

Sigh, what a pity she was also chosen by the Game to be a Player.

I really hope she survives in the Game for a while.

Tao Jinran hadn’t participated in many games herself, yet she treated Yun Youyou like a new Player.

She flexed her biceps at Yun Youyou.

“You’re so small and weak, let me do it. I’ve been through several games and put all my skill points into stamina. Don’t let my size fool you; I can knock out a grown man with one punch.”

Without giving Yun Youyou a chance to refuse, she hoisted the suitcase onto her shoulder and marched inside.

Yun Youyou had no choice but to accept her kindness.

She simply thought to herself: *Sorry, but I can knock out three.*

After helping Yun Youyou with the luggage, Tao Jinran tactfully took her leave.

Before leaving, she pointed to the room next door. “Don’t worry, I’ll look out for you in the Game. If you run into any trouble, just come find me. Don’t be a stranger!”

Although Yun Youyou didn’t think she would need any help from Tao Jinran, she was still grateful for the kindness.

After closing the door, she stared blankly at the suitcase.
She had no idea what the situation was with this Instance.

No matter how she called out to the Game, it didn’t appear.

Yun Youyou had no choice but to tidy up the room first.

She opened the suitcase that had been by her side from the very beginning.

It was packed to the brim.

It was full of this season’s designer clothes, along with plenty of high-end cosmetics. Even her wallet was stuffed with hundred-yuan bills.

Was her identity this time some kind of wealthy heiress?

But why would a wealthy heiress rent a room in a dilapidated villa like this?

By the time Yun Youyou finished cleaning the room, three hours had passed.

“Knock, knock, knock!”

Someone came and knocked on the door.

Yun Youyou hung the clothes from the suitcase in the wardrobe and got up to open the door.

When the door opened, Tao Jinran stood there, looking a bit embarrassed.

“Are you hungry? Do you want to go downstairs and grab something to eat?”

Just as she finished speaking, her stomach let out a very timely growl.

Tao Jinran quickly covered her stomach, her face turning even redder.

Yun Youyou considerately pretended not to hear. “Sure, let’s go down.”

The old wooden stairs creaked with every step.

Especially since Yun Youyou was wearing high heels; she didn’t dare step too hard, fearing she might put a hole through the floor at any moment.

The two of them reached the kitchen on the first floor and found someone already there.

Hearing the movement behind him, the man turned around.

He had a very ordinary appearance and looked to be about thirty. His triangular eyes scanned Yun Youyou and Tao Jinran up and down.

His overly blatant gaze made both girls frown in unison.

Although Tao Jinran hadn’t participated in many Games, she had heard some rumors.

Some people, relying on their superior strength, would inevitably bully others or take advantage of women in the Game.

Sometimes, when people were bad, they were scarier than ghosts.

“My surname is Wang. How should I address you two ladies?”

Wang Weiye asked, putting on a gentlemanly act.

Little did he know that his posturing only made him seem greasy.

He never expected to encounter two beautiful female Players just by participating in a Game.

The Player on the left had a cute baby face, but the radiant beauty beside her was truly eye-catching.

If he had to choose one of the two, he would still pick the stunning beauty.

The man’s lecherous gaze did not escape Yun Youyou and Tao Jinran’s notice.

Tao Jinran curled her lip, not wanting to acknowledge him.

Yun Youyou glanced at him and said seriously, “My name is Zhennima Youni.”

Tao Jinran almost burst out laughing when she heard that.

“Then I’m Qiaonina Biyang.”

Wang Weiye didn’t realize for a moment that they were calling him disgusting and greasy.

He rubbed his hands together and smiled. “Those names sound quite foreign, but they’re very nice. I like them.”

Yun Youyou gave a hollow smile. “I’m glad you like them.”

After all, they were chosen specifically for him.

Tao Jinran’s stomach was already flat with hunger.

Even the presence of a greasy man didn’t affect her appetite.

She pulled open the refrigerator door and looked inside for a while.

“Why are there only some vegetables in here?”

Yun Youyou also poked her head in to look.

Sure enough, there were only some eggs and vegetables; there wasn’t even any milk.

Tao Jinran made a face. “What should we do? I don’t know how to cook!”
