Happy Again

Yu Xunhuan sighed. When he thought about how Yu Xunge had immediately told them after discovering the game, he felt relieved. It was good she ran; he had been too hasty.

He still had so many options; there was no need to lay hands on Yu Xunge.

Thinking about how lucky he had become in the game by cooking for passersby, Yu Xunhuan decided to do it a few more times. With the end of the year approaching and so many Su family banquets, if he could just get some items to put on the banquet tables…

Weren't those born with golden keys luckier than Yu Xunge?

It would be best to keep this from the Su family, though… Even though he was confident that Su Yitong would help him if she knew about his skill's effect, he still wanted to keep it hidden. He didn't want to reveal it unless absolutely necessary.

But he had already bought the ingredients today, so he couldn't waste them. The figures of Yu Qingshan and Yi Qiuguo flashed through his mind. In the next second, Yu Xunhuan thought of Ye Dong, who was still living in his apartment.

He smiled and started cooking. Ye Dong had been staying with him for so long without paying rent.

Yu Xunge still didn't know that her good brother wasn't angry and was actually glad she had run.

Even if she knew, she wouldn't be moved. What kind of kindness was the kindness of a villain? It was merely treating her as a backup food source.

After arriving in Thailand, Yu Xunge first used her Disguise Skill to transform into a bald man. Then, she found a tour guide and asked her to take her to purchase some "evil" items. She wasn't short on money, but they had to be evil, preferably with a sense of history.

The tour guide's smile became more sincere, thinking she had found another sucker.

Then, in the next second, Yu Xunge pulled out a miniature pistol from her right sleeve and pressed it against the guide's temple. With her left hand, she took out a thick stack of US dollars. "Do you want this, or this?"

The tour guide's smile was more like a grimace. She truthfully said, "But these things aren't real..."

Yu Xunge put away the gun and calmly and seriously stated her requirements: "They can be items that were involved in a murder, they can be historically significant, or they can have many stories. As long as you help me find them diligently, I will give you a bonus for each one I find, starting at $500. If I'm satisfied, I'll increase it, with no upper limit."

Seeing Yu Xunge's gentle demeanor, not like a madwoman who might lose her mind and kill at any moment, the tour guide also calmed down. She confirmed, "I can only promise to tell you everything I find out, but I can't guarantee the items are genuinely useful."

Yu Xunge smiled and handed her a few US dollar bills. "Okay. I'll be staying here for a week. How much you can earn depends on you."

She hadn't believed in such things before, but after the Game Invasion, many items were related to metaphysics. In China, things like incense ash collected from ancient temples, or prayer mats used for many years by true eminent monks, had all mutated. However, those were later official items, mostly used to protect ordinary citizens or by official combat units.

She preferred to search for them herself in folk circles. Such metaphysical items had too long a history in China, and the experience of scammers in faking them was also rich. She knew she couldn't outsmart them, and collecting them herself would be too conspicuous.

She had enjoyed the protection of a portion of the Su family. There were pros and cons. No one would easily move against her, but her every action would be noticed by those with intentions. Other small families and forces wanted to know how major families like the Su and Liang families were responding.

Most of their attention would be focused on the important figures of the Su family, but Yu Xunge, who had recently been doing business with wealthy individuals, could also be observed.

Although no one would track Yu Xunge 24 hours a day, her prolonged efforts to collect items related to metaphysics would certainly be noticed. In the future, if such historical or story-filled items mutated, her behavior would be highly suspect.

After arriving in Thailand, there was still a possibility of being investigated, but the trivial matters were handed over to the tour guide after her disguise. Yu Xunge herself would visit attractions and shop like a tourist.

Perhaps Yu Xunge was overthinking it again, but she was used to being cautious and regretted not thinking enough.

It was another satisfying battle of wits with the air!

"Is this a camera from a ghost movie?" Yu Xunge, disguised as a bald man, was playing with a very ordinary Polaroid camera. "Which ghost movie?"

The tour guide rubbed her hands together and said with a fawning smile, "It wasn't finished. Because those college students said that as they were filming, they encountered terrifying things, and they got scared to continue, so they stopped."

Yu Xunge put down the Polaroid without comment and looked at the other items on the table.

A worn, blood-stained amulet, rumored to have been obtained by a woman seeking marriage. Not long after getting married, she discovered her husband was a scumbag and, in a fit of rage, killed him.

A wolf's tooth, said to be from a wolf that had eaten many people.

A veil worn by a Thai princess hundreds of years ago.

And... a small piece of durian husk.

Hmm... Yu Xunge controlled her expression and pointed at the durian husk. "So, please tell me, what kind of tragic and touching story and background does it have?"

She leaned in to smell it and could still detect the fresh scent of durian!!

Did this tour guide think her gun was unloaded?!

The tour guide gestured enthusiastically, saying this durian husk was extraordinary. Usually, when picking durians, one person would be on the tree cutting them, and another would be on the ground catching them. However, this durian wasn't caught and hit the person on the forehead, killing them on the spot. The durian didn't even pierce the skull because the head had already shattered.

Everyone was busy crying, screaming, and clasping their hands in prayer at the time, and no one paid attention to the durian. Later, this bloody durian was picked up by a child from a nearby village, who ate the flesh, but this small piece of durian husk was preserved.

Yu Xunge: "The child you're talking about, wasn't it you?"

Tour guide: "It wasn't me, it was my child..."

Yu Xunge: "..."

She was wrong. How could she think she could outsmart foreign scammers when she couldn't even outsmart domestic ones?!

There were many scammers in China, but at least they respected your intelligence. Abroad, not only were there many scammers, but they also treated you like an idiot!

Even her gun wasn't working!

Yu Xunge waved her hand wearily, took out $2500 and placed it on the table, sweeping the pile of junk into her black backpack. She decided to abandon her plan and buy a few latex mattresses before returning to her country.

She was tired. She'd rather spend this time training properly and tackling dungeons after the Game Invasion!

Less than a week after going abroad, Yu Xunge returned to her homeland.

She still had nearly thirty million yuan in her hands, but she had nowhere to spend it, which was truly troublesome.

She decided to use all this money to buy gold. If anyone asked, she had a good reason: she felt that the future belonged to players, and money would depreciate, so converting it to gold was safer.
