    Chapter 396: Daddy, I’m Begging You

    Changbai Scenic Garden,

    At the Yang family home.

    “Mom, this is way too much food. Even with me and Weiwei, we can’t possibly finish all of this.”

    Yang Yaoyao looked at the dishes in the kitchen, puzzled by the sheer amount.

    There was already enough for two full plates. Normally, one plate per dish would be more than enough.

    There was really no need to make double portions.

    “The extra is for Brother Chen.”

    Before their mother could answer, Yang Duoduo, who had been following closely behind, tilted her head and chimed in.

    Brother Chen?

    Yang Yaoyao froze for a moment, then quickly understood.

    Brother Chen referred to President Chen of the Mingri Group. Back when they lived in the old house, President Chen had lived in the apartment above theirs.

    Because he had helped her parents, they often cooked extra food and had Duoduo bring it upstairs to him.

    But now that her parents had moved, were they really driving over to deliver it?

    Just as she was about to ask, she saw her mother already packing the extra dishes into a basket. Since there was quite a bit today, she ended up filling two baskets.

    “Alright, it’s ready to be delivered.”

    “Yay! Time to bring food to Brother Chen!”

    Yang Duoduo cheered and ran over to one of the baskets, ready to pick it up, but was stopped by her mother, Dong Hong.

    “Not today. Let your sister deliver it this time.”

    Dong Hong gently patted Yang Duoduo’s head, speaking softly.

    Now that her daughter was back and had just joined Boring Short Video under President Chen’s company, this was the perfect chance to introduce them.

    “Oh…”

    Yang Duoduo pouted and nodded, then turned to her sister, hands on her hips.

    “Fine, I’ll let you have the delivery today. But tomorrow, it’s Duoduo’s turn again!”

    Yang Yaoyao smiled at her sister’s expression and reached out to pinch her chubby little cheeks.

    “Alright, I’ll go today. But after that, it’s all yours again.”

    She then looked up at her mother.

    “Mom, where do I take it?”

    “Right across the hall. Just knock on the door.”

    Dong Hong replied.

    Yang Yaoyao nodded. She had been wondering how Duoduo had been delivering food every day if President Chen lived far away.

    So he was just across the hall. No wonder her parents were so at ease.

    With that thought, she picked up the two baskets and headed out. As she passed by Liu Weiwei, she pulled her along too.

    After all, President Chen was the CEO of the company. Bringing Liu Weiwei along to show her face wouldn’t hurt.

    …

    “Damn!”

    Chen Mo stared at the death screen on his computer and couldn’t help but curse.

    Ever since he downloaded Extreme Survival at the office last time, he had come to a realization. He was already making money—there was no changing that.

    So why make things harder for himself? Playing games to relax a little was totally fine.

    With that mindset, he had set up a gaming PC at home and would play now and then to pass the time.

    Besides, in this world, Extreme Survival was the only game that matched his tastes. It was worth playing.

    Unfortunately, this world didn’t have League of Legends. Compared to Extreme Survival, he actually preferred League of Legends.

    Exiting the death screen, this time he didn’t queue solo but chose the four-player squad mode.

    And he had found a new source of fun in the game.

    Using his authority, he had asked Fang Chang for an account with all the skins unlocked. These days, the game didn’t just have gun skins—there were also character skins and item skins.

    But the only way to get these skins was through a lottery system.

    Aside from a few free spins each day, the only other way to get more was by purchasing a Monthly Card, which came with extra draws.

    However, with different skins in different prize pools and limited draw chances, even with the Monthly Card bonuses, players couldn’t possibly complete every pool.

    So most players only had a dozen or so skins.

    Some unlucky ones might only have two or three.

    But he had them all. Every time he joined a four-player squad and showed off his skins, his teammates would go wild.

    That was probably the only real satisfaction Extreme Survival could offer him.

    Soon, a new match began.

    Chen Mo entered the game wearing the rarest and most coveted outfit currently available.

    Among all players, only he had the complete set. Others might have a piece or two, but no one else had the full outfit.

    As the game started, his teammates quickly noticed what he was wearing.

    “Holy crap! A god-tier player! You’ve got the full [Dark Demon God] set?”

    “This is the first time I’ve seen someone with the complete [Dark Demon God]. Bro, let me try it on!”

    “Daddy, I’m begging you!”

    “…”

    Chen Mo watched as his teammates chased after him, then generously removed the [Dark Demon God] outfit from his character.

    The fastest of the group, Teammate No. 1, quickly picked up the outfit and put it on. The other two, who had been chasing Chen Mo as well, immediately gave up on him and turned their attention to Teammate No. 1 instead.

    Seeing their wide-eyed, inexperienced reactions, Chen Mo chuckled softly.

    Is that all?

    Just wait. The real surprise is still coming.

    Before long, the group finished looting supplies in the housing area, and the Safe Zone refreshed. It was time to move.

    Teammate No. 1 drove up in a jeep, with the other two already seated inside.

    “Boss, hurry up and get in. We need to head into the zone.”

    Chen Mo didn’t rush. Instead, he controlled his in-game character to walk over to the jeep and began operating something.

    “Boss, what are you dawdling for? Hurry and—”

    Teammate No. 1 started to urge him, but stopped mid-sentence.

    The ordinary jeep had transformed into a dazzling, rainbow-colored Lamborghini.

    “Holy crap, Boss, you’re insane!!!”

    “Damn, isn’t that skin the one that just dropped two days ago? Boss, you’re a total luck god!”

    “All hail the boss!!!”

    “Hey, No. 1, switch seats. I’m driving.”

    “Switch what? Boss, you sit tight.”

    “……”

    As soon as Chen Mo got in, the Lamborghini roared to life and sped off.

    A few minutes later,

    Chen Mo stared at the gray Game Interface and the smoking wreck of the Lamborghini, completely speechless. He silently exited the game.

    Immediately after,

    A friend request popped up on the Game Interface.

    Chen Mo glanced at the name—it was one of the teammates from earlier. Without hesitation, he hit reject.

    You seriously think you deserve to be on my friends list? You drove straight into the enemy’s face—what was that supposed to be?

    Ever heard of turning around and retreating?

    That was a Lamborghini, not a damn armored tank.

    Knock knock knock!!!

    Just as he was debating whether to start another match, the doorbell suddenly rang.

    Chen Mo checked the time. At this hour, it was most likely Yang Duoduo delivering his meal.

    He exited the game, got up, and walked toward the door.
