Chapter 21 Takeout
Chapter 21 Takeout
Inside Xu Hang's home, the three of them were naturally unaware of what Liu Xuan and his group were doing.
Lu Tingxue didn't have much stuff because Su Wanqing wouldn't be back for a while. After Lu Tingxue made a video call with Su Wanqing, she easily obtained Su Wanqing's permission and moved directly into Su Wanqing's room.
Xu Hang didn't know much about this house either, since he had only stayed there for less than half a day.
Although theoretically he has lived here for a long time, that is just the background setting of the bizarre life game.
So, he didn't know how to talk to Lu Tingxue about how to live well in this house. He could only act like a generous host and say to his guest:
"Just make yourself at home."
Upon hearing this, Lu Tingxue nodded and solemnly thanked Xu Hang.
Later, Xu Hang had Shen Yao drive him back to Warm Winter Bank.
At this hour, only the closed development departments of Warm Winter Bank had lights on, while the credit office area was pitch black. As a result, when the two returned, they felt a chilling wind, as if some lingering resentment was present.
"Supervisor, I'm going back to work now."
Shen Yao called out to Xu Hang and then returned to the office area.
Xu Hang walked through the corridor to the end, pushed open the door, and entered his own small office.
It wasn't too late, and since he hadn't eaten anything, he simply ordered takeout on his phone.
While waiting for his takeout, he tried to search for his memories on his laptop.
However, due to a lack of professional knowledge...
He only vaguely understood the files on the computer.
He felt that adding an exit mechanism to the game was urgently needed.
Otherwise, if things continue like this, even if I am reinstated, it's only a matter of time before I'm fired for being unable to perform my duties.
I can't exactly go to Song Qingyang and get a certificate of brain damage to explain why I suddenly messed up something that should be a piece of cake.
As time went by, it grew darker outside, and almost no sound could be heard around.
Just then, a phone call came in, startling Xu Hang.
After the call connected, he realized that the food delivery had arrived, but the voice on the other end sounded somewhat familiar.
After going downstairs, he saw the deliveryman waiting next to the takeout locker.
Logically, the other party should have already left.
At this moment, Xu Hang realized who the other person was and understood why they were still there; they were waiting for him.
"Xu Hang, I knew that voice sounded so familiar."
The deliveryman gestured to Xu Hang.
Xu Hang recognized him; he was also a classmate, Dai Gao.
Although his name is Dai Gao, he is not very tall, only about 66 meters. He is the kind of person who stands in the front row when the class is lined up.
In this bizarre game of life, he was assigned to the black and white team.
De Gaulle noticed the subtle look in Xu Hang's eyes and immediately explained:
"Don't worry, I didn't poison it."
I don't want to fight with others.
"Then what are you doing here?"
Xu Hang did not lower his guard against the other party. He knew very well that if the other party simply did not want to get involved in this struggle between the underworld and the power and money, then the other party could have left after delivering the food and did not need to wait for him here.
De Gaulle looked around and shrugged:
"I'm your classmate, or at least an old classmate, right?"
"Can't I even go upstairs and sit for a bit?"
"Company rules prohibit bringing unauthorized personnel into the premises."
Is there really such a rule?
"You've only been working here for one day, right?"
"A legitimate company would have that, and I wouldn't take you up there."
"Just say what you need to say here."
Xu Hang sighed:
"And let's keep this distance; it's best not to get too close."
Seeing Xu Hang's wariness of him, Dai Gao nodded:
"Alright, alright, I came here to tell you that even though you've already witnessed the miracle caused by Yang Feng."
Many people also don't want to fight to the death with their classmates.
"Is that all you wanted to say?"
"That's all I wanted to say."
Tonight, Cao Bin and his gang actually came up with the idea of kidnapping Lu Tingxue. I don't even dare to think about what they might do next.
And if things continue like this, it's only a matter of time before you retaliate.
Most of you have decent jobs, but I have more social resources.
If they really fought, I don't even want to think about what it would turn out like.
I just hope that when you start fighting, you'll remember I'm just an outsider and don't drag me into it.
"If that's the case, why don't you leave this city?"
Xu Hang asked:
"Leave this city and live somewhere else."
It's not strange for someone your age to go to work in another city.
You can earn a higher income in a more prosperous area, and use that higher income to make up for all the small problems caused by the curse of misfortune. Maybe you can even live a more relaxed life and avoid getting involved in this struggle.
I want to leave but I can't. What about you?
Why don't you leave?
If I'm delivering food, can I do it in any city?
"You should even be able to make more money in big cities."
Listening to Xu Hang's advice, De Gaulle shook his head with a wry smile:
"Every family has its own problems. If I say too much, you'll probably start to doubt me again. I can only say that I can't leave. I'm the pillar of the family right now. That might sound a bit boastful, but if I left, this family would be in no time to collapse."
So I hope you and the rest of the All-Round Group will tell you that I will not participate in this struggle, and I hope that whether you seek revenge, frame me, or ambush me, you will not target me or my family. I am just an innocent bystander.
Hearing this, Xu Hang asked curiously:
"How many people in the Black and White groups don't want to get involved?"
De Gaulle shook his head:
It's difficult for me to give you a definite answer.
You should know that sometimes whether or not someone gets involved doesn't depend on them, but on when the people around them suffer misfortune.
For example, if you are a member of the Black and White groups, your parents are healthy, and your family has no pressure, you will naturally not worry or have excessive expectations for so-called miracles.
But what if a miracle becomes your lifeline?
Xu Hang nodded:
"Okay, I understand what you mean. Be careful on your way back; it's already quite dark outside."
De Gaulle gave an OK sign, turned and left.
He had only taken a few steps when he stopped and added:
Don't forget to give me a five-star review.
His figure then disappeared into the shadows of the corridor.
