Chapter 173 Bored

“Ah, ah, ah, I'm so bored. After sending the little girl away, all I'm doing here is feeding mosquitoes!"

As she spoke, Lu Xiaoyao howled and slapped down with her hand.

With a smack, Lu Xiaoyao's arm turned red, and the mosquito flew away.

"It's so late. The banquet has been going on for a while. Surely no one else will come, right?"

Lu Xiaoyao's gaze fell on the gate again. She looked left and right, and then she tucked the flashlight into her waist, smiling slyly.

"Hehe, it's not that I don't want to 'stick to my post,' but my system told me that I have another mission to do~"

Lu Xiaoyao put her hands on her hips and strutted around smugly. If the viewers in the live broadcast room couldn't see the system's reminder through her broadcast, they would have really thought Lu Xiaoyao was going inside.

[Aren't you just patrolling in a different place?]

[Pfft, patrolling alone?]

[The previous five were scared silly. Patrolling alone, kid, are you really up to it?]

Mingmei also saw the group of viewers mocking Lu Xiaoyao on the screen.

But Mingmei had no way to get there now. Instead, Mu Chen carried her into the villa.

A tall, thin, and handsome guy carrying a tattered bear doll. Even if the other players knew that the bear doll in front of them was the Mysterious Merchant, they still looked at Mu Chen with a somewhat indescribable expression.

Was he simping for the Mysterious Merchant?

Did he have to go this far?!

Mingmei occasionally met the eyes of the players who were peeking at them, and she herself was ashamed and indignant.

It wasn't that she hadn't thought about it… Well, she hadn't thought that one day she would be held in the other party's arms like a child _(：3」∠)_

It was just that the current image was a little… not right?

Not aesthetically pleasing!

Even if Mingmei wanted to struggle and get down on her own, Mu Chen not only held her tighter, but when Mingmei struggled too much, he actually smacked her on the bear's butt!

This bear's butt was her butt now!

"Don't make a fuss, I can barely hold you," Mu Chen coaxed in a low voice.

They walked around most of the villa and finally found a window that wasn't tightly closed. Everyone planned to climb through the window.

"Yeah, Mysterious Little Bear, don't move. You're so heavy, it's hard for him to carry you."

It hadn't been long before Zhen Hu changed from calling her "Bear Spirit" to "Mysterious Little Bear." You really have a way with words!

What made Mingmei even angrier was that he said she was heavy in the next sentence!

Was she heavy?!

[Ghostie! Am I heavy?!]

[Host, what standard are you asking by?]

[?? Is there even a standard??]

[Is it based on your normal height or how you are now?]

Mingmei: [Tell me both the normal and the current.]

[When you're normal, you have meat where you should, and none where you shouldn't. Perfect! Now… can I say you're overweight?]

Mingmei: […]

She didn't have time to get angry at what Ghostie said. Mingmei just felt that something it said was a little off.

"She's not heavy, it's just that I'm afraid she'll move too much when I climb in, and I won't be able to hold her steady," Mu Chen retorted to Zhen Hu. Only he and Zhen Hu were still outside the window. The others had already climbed in. "You go first. I'll cover you."

"You go first. The Mysterious Little Bear is inside. It's easier for me to react if something happens since I'm not carrying anything."

Zhen Hu waved his hand. Although he didn't say anything more, his eyes were full of sympathy when he looked at Mu Chen.

Sigh!

Playing a game, he was carrying such a big "burden" as the Mysterious Little Bear for everyone's safety later on. Alas~

When Mu Chen climbed over the wall, Mingmei's face was facing Zhen Hu's direction. Mingmei immediately understood his gaze.

In her mind, she seemed to have seen such a gaze many times.

[You and your sister are from two different worlds. You don't have to take her everywhere you go, right? She can't help you with anything…]

Although Mei Jiu would beat the other party to a pulp every time, Mingmei couldn't deny that she was sad.

"What's wrong?"

Seeing that the ugly and cute little bear had been silent since she had been lying on his shoulder, Mu Chen sensitively noticed that her emotional state was not good.

Mingmei heard Mu Chen's question and shook her head. She didn't say anything. Looking at the others who were groping around in the dining room, seemingly trying to turn on the lights in the hotel, she and Mu Chen were now standing by the wall. She reached out and touched the wall, and instantly the lights in the room were turned on.

"Oh my gosh! You can turn on the lights!"

Whether it was because of stereotypes, everyone subconsciously thought that the lights wouldn't turn on in this situation.

When everyone came back to their senses and looked at the Mysterious Merchant's chubby, furry little hand pressing on the light switch, they didn't know if it was their imagination, but they actually saw disdain in her button-made, flimsy fake eyes.

A bunch of idiots!

"Ahem, it's good if there's light. Thanks, Mysterious Little Bear. It'll be easier for us to explore."

Zhen Hu was the first to recover and thanked Mingmei. It was just that the name Mysterious Little Bear quickly spread among the crowd under Zhen Hu's lead.

After that, when everyone thanked Mingmei, they had to add Mysterious Little Bear at the end.

Mingmei: "…"

"This first floor looks like a delicately decorated and elegant restaurant."

They walked through the first floor of the house. Although the entire villa was rebuilt because of the fire, the hotel's floor area was not expanded in order to make it look more like the original from the outside.

It was built on the ruins of the original burned-down residence.

"Yeah, the structure of the rooms inside has changed a lot."

No one knew what the hotel was thinking, but they placed a map of the original house on the fireplace under the stairs, so it was easier for everyone to see the differences between the house and the original.

"In the past, this hall was also used for banquets, but because there were servant rooms on the first floor, the sides weren't as wide as they are now."

Everyone looked at the floor plan of the first floor, which also had notes recording the purpose of each room's design in the past, which was clear at a glance. In less than a few minutes, everyone had turned their attention to the floor plan of the second floor.

"The master bedroom is on the far east side of the second floor, and there are several guest rooms on the west side. The study and cloakroom are in the middle."

The previous design of the second floor wasn't anything out of the ordinary either, but now that they knew what the second floor used to be like, they couldn't help but focus their attention on the current second floor.

There was also a sign in the corner of the stairs, which recorded what the second floor had been turned into now.

An exhibition room, which recorded the portraits and photographs of the former owner of the Daiwei Villa during her lifetime, as well as some objects that were found from the fire that were not burned or not completely burned.

Most of them were gemstone jewelry.

From this, everyone could get a glimpse of the grandeur of the Daiwei Villa back then.

However, after going up to the second floor, everyone suddenly discovered that, compared to the first floor, there seemed to be no lights on the second floor.

Even if they had Mu Chen carry Mingmei and swipe up and down along the surrounding walls, there were no switches _(¦3」∠)_
