Chapter 1074: Chapter 1074: Side Story – Live Streaming World 43

In just one day, the record for the new dungeon was pushed to 887 points, set by Sky Squad.

Most dungeon records are within the 750-850 range, with very few high-difficulty dungeons scoring over 900, so 887 is quite a high score.

Yuri suspected that Sky Squad must have recruited a new member and taken advantage of the buff effect to achieve such a high score.

Actually, for any team, new members are a double-edged sword.

The benefit is the buff from new recruits; the downside is also clear, as rookies lack combat experience and are the most likely to cause team casualties, which directly lowers the score.

After all, not every newcomer can be as exceptional as Shen Mo.

After resting for two days in the villa, everyone decided to give up on Demon Island and try their luck at the Queen’s Nest instead.

Bai Youwei wanted to go too, but her character is a girl so weak she couldn’t truss a chicken, and the dungeon was fraught with danger, so she had no place there.

When the team went to the dungeon, she stayed at home to be the good wife and mother.

Writing recipes, basking in the sun, applying face masks, and laboriously serving meals from the shared backpack, the day passed in such domestic pursuits.

While sunbathing in the yard, she ran into that man from last time again.

This time, he came on purpose, with a bouquet of roses, standing outside the gate, saying to Bai Youwei: “Isn’t it boring to stay at home? Want to go on a date with me?”

Bai Youwei rolled her eyes, too lazy to speak, and simply got up and went back into the house.

The man smiled lightly, tossed the roses over the wall with precision, and they landed exactly at Bai Youwei’s feet.

Bai Youwei’s steps faltered at the sound of the breeze behind her. When she turned around, she saw the man had effortlessly scaled the wall and jumped down.

He’s quite agile.

Bai Youwei sized up the man from head to toe, her expression unchanged, as if she wasn’t afraid of him.

“Are you… forcefully trying to create an encounter with me?” she questioned.

At these words, the man gave a chuckle, bent down to pick up the bouquet of roses from the ground, and offered it to Bai Youwei–ignoring his act of climbing over the wall, he almost seemed like a gentlemen with suave manners.

“Adorable girl, I’m simply trying to pursue you,” he said.

Bai Youwei did not accept the bouquet of roses.

“But I’m married,” she said, gently touching her abdomen, “and I might even be pregnant.”

The man laughed: “I don’t mind.”

“But I do,” Bai Youwei said earnestly, “I love my husband very much.”

The man’s smile persisted as he touched his thin goatee, a playful glint in his eyes, “You love your husband, and I am wooing my lady–let’s not disturb each other~”

Bai Youwei said: “You should ask the lady’s corner for an opinion; she might not want to be wooed by you.”

“She’ll like it,” the man insisted, looking straight into her eyes, “A lovely girl is like a flower that needs a man’s nurture. Once she has tasted the flavor of other men, she’ll be hooked…”

Bai Youwei replied unfazed: “Is that so? You should try the flavor of men too, I bet you’ll be hooked.”

The man: “…”

Seeing his expression about to change, Bai Youwei quickly stepped back a few paces and darted into the house, then slammed the door shut with a bang!

If he had a weapon, such a door obviously wouldn’t stop him, but Bai Youwei calculated that he wouldn’t dare to make too much noise–after all, making a scene over a woman wasn’t very classy, especially if word got out.

A man with that sort of goatee must care about his image.

True to expectation, the man just stood there with a darkened expression for a while before turning away and leaving.

As he climbed back over the wall, he glanced back toward the villa with a frivolous smile, suggesting he had not yet given up.

The butler, with cleaning tools in hand, arrived where the man had just been to sweep up the scattered roses.

Bai Youwei stopped him: “No need to clean them up, just leave those flowers on the ground.”

The butler nodded: “Alright.”
