Chapter 58
Gu Wanyin glanced over and indeed saw Zhao Yueyue silently shedding tears.
However, she didn't say anything.
Firstly, she wasn't close to Zhao Yueyue, and secondly, perhaps at this moment Zhao Yueyue didn't need anyone's comfort.
After soaking for long enough, Gu Wanyin left with Hamburger.
......
For the past few days, Gu Wanyin hadn't been able to reach the system, and the system hadn't issued any new tasks for her.
Calculating the time since the last intergalactic system ranking day, it seemed like it had been a month already. The system had probably gone to participate in the ranking day again.
Gu Wanyin wasn't too worried. After all, if the system could get first place last time, this time with even more points earned, her system would definitely be first again.
She was just about to go to the supermarket to get some snacks when suddenly, the system's voice sounded in her mind.
"Host! I'm back!"
Hearing the usually emotionless voice of the system tinged with excitement, Gu Wanyin knew her guess was probably correct.
"You went to participate in the ranking day again?"
"That's right, and this time I'm first place again!"
Gu Wanyin also began to get excited: "Does that mean we can have rewards again? What are they?"
She originally thought the system would rattle off all the rewards, but at this moment, the system fell into an eerie silence.
"System?" Gu Wanyin called out again, puzzled.
"Host, there are indeed quite a few rewards this time. Let's put the others aside for now. There's one particularly important one that I need to discuss with you..."
Gu Wanyin didn't quite understand. What kind of reward would need to be discussed with her?
"Well, because we ranked first this time, the intergalactic side has specially approved for us to go to another world to do business and earn points for seven days."
"Is that so? That's great news, we can earn even more points," Gu Wanyin said.
After all, even if she was away from the hotel for seven days, with Xu Shi and Fang Yang there, the hotel could still operate as usual, and points would still be earned.
And she could go to another world to earn more points for the system, it would be like a vacation.
"But, but..."
The system's speech suddenly became hesitant.
"We're so close now, just say what you need to say!" Gu Wanyin said with a wry smile, "Are there other conditions?"
"No, there aren't. This is a reward, how could there be conditions? It's just that I had bad luck. Which world we go to is determined by a draw, and I drew... the horror world."
Gu Wanyin: "Say that again?"
"I didn't expect it either," the system said miserably. "I suspect the horror world's system rigged it deliberately. After all, it had its eye on you before and wanted to bind with you, but I got to you first."
Gu Wanyin took a deep breath and asked, "Can we not go?"
"Of course we can. This is a reward, not mandatory. You can choose whether to go or not."
Whether it was her imagination or not, Gu Wanyin thought she heard a pitiful tone in the system's voice.
It made sense. If she didn't go, the system would earn fewer points.
Actually, the system could have lied to her, saying it was mandatory and she had no choice, but it didn't...
The system had never lied to her or set her up, and had always been very good to her.
After getting a second chance at life, she was able to live such a good life, and it was all thanks to the system.
So now, earning more points for the system was the right thing to do.
It's just doing business in the horror world for seven days!
What's the big deal?
"After I go to the horror world, you'll guarantee my safety, right?"
"Of course!" the system quickly said, "You won't be in any danger. It'll be just like being here."
Gu Wanyin sighed and said, "Alright then, I'll go. It's just seven days, right? I'll come back after seven days?"
"Yes!" The system was clearly excited now, "After all, the post-apocalyptic world is our main stage. Going there is just to make some quick money."
"Okay, so when do we leave?"
"Tomorrow morning."
"Alright."
Having decided to go to the horror world to make some quick money, Gu Wanyin went to inform Xu Shi and Fang Yang. She told them she would be leaving the hotel for seven days and asked them to take good care of the hotel and look after Cola and Hamburger.
After all, she was going to the horror world, and it would be too cruel to bring the two kids along.
"Boss, don't worry!" Fang Yang patted his chest in assurance, "With me here, the hotel won't have any problems!"
Xu Shi immediately pushed him aside and said, "Boss, I will definitely work hard while you're gone!"
After saying this, he glared at Fang Yang.
Fang Yang glared back at him.
"You two, stop competing," Gu Wanyin rubbed her temples.
Actually, there wasn't much to worry about. Even if she went to the horror world, this side would still be under the system's control.
Managing two worlds simultaneously wasn't a problem for the system.
"Yes, boss!" Fang Yang immediately said, "The two of us are actually very united and friendly."
As he spoke, the two immediately put their arms around each other's shoulders, like good brothers.
Gu Wanyin also told Cola and Hamburger that she had some business to attend to and would be away for seven days. She asked them to be good, eat well, and not watch TV too late at night.
"Sister, don't worry, I'll take good care of my little sister," Cola immediately took on the responsibility of being a big brother. "We'll definitely be in bed before 10 PM!"
"That's great," Gu Wanyin patted his head.
Before going to sleep that night, the system told Gu Wanyin that when she woke up tomorrow morning, she would already be in the horror world.
Gu Wanyin silently closed her eyes.
Although she knew there wouldn't be any danger, she still hoped it wouldn't be too scary.
......
In the morning, when Gu Wanyin opened her eyes, she found herself lying in an unfamiliar place.
She was on a small bed, and looking at her surroundings, it seemed to be a small wooden cabin.
Besides the bed, there was a set of table and chairs, and an oil lamp.
"Good morning, host," the system's voice sounded, "We are now in the horror world."
"Is this where I'll be staying for these seven days?" Gu Wanyin asked.
"Yes, host. After all, this isn't our main stage, so the conditions aren't as good as in the hotel."
Gu Wanyin didn't mind this.
After all, it was only for seven days.
And although the small wooden cabin was simple, it was clean and not uncomfortable to live in.
Gu Wanyin stretched and asked, "So what should I do now?"
"Host, first leave this cabin."
"Okay."
Although the wooden cabin was small, it had a bathroom. Gu Wanyin freshened up and then looked out the window.
The sky outside was grey and misty, with thick fog in the distance.
As expected of a horror world, the atmosphere was quite well set.
Gu Wanyin opened the door of the wooden cabin, and what met her eyes was a supermarket.
The supermarket was somewhat similar to the one in the hotel, quite large in scale with many products.
It seemed that her method of earning points in the horror world would be running a supermarket, with the small wooden cabin as her resting place after the supermarket closed.
