As Yang Chenyan’s mocking words fell, the entire hall plunged into deathly silence.
Even the sound of Ruan Qing eating ceased, and his hand, holding chopsticks, froze in mid-air.
It was so quiet that you could almost hear a pin drop.
Under Yang Chenyan’s mocking gaze, Shen Baiyue stiffly released the hand holding Ruan Qing’s clothes.
Her lips moved slightly, as if she wanted to retort, but in the end, she said nothing and just hugged the doll, shrinking in the chair.
She looked particularly pitiful.
Meanwhile, Ruan Qing’s expression turned cold. Anyone whose spouse had just died wouldn’t be able to remain calm after hearing such words, especially when they came from the disliked Yang family.
The original owner’s hatred for the Yang family had reached its peak when they were about to bury Yang Chenfeng without investigating the cause of his death, making them the most detested presence for the original owner.
Ruan Qing tightened the chopsticks in his hand, his fingers turning somewhat pale, indicating how angry he was.
He coldly looked at Yang Chenyan, “If you don’t have a brain, don’t speak. Otherwise, you’ll only appear uncultured and foolish.”
“And whether I find a new spouse has nothing to do with you.”
As Ruan Qing spoke, he sneered, “Doesn’t your Yang family have a house by the seaside?”
“Mind your own business.”
The hall fell into silence once again.
The servants and the steward lowered their heads even more when Ruan Qing spoke, some even trembling, fearing that the Third Young Master might erupt in anger.
After all, the Third Young Master was known for being unreasonable, and incidents of him venting his anger on servants and steward had occurred before.
Many onlookers were shocked, watching Ruan Qing confront Yang Chenyan head-on, even daring to call him a fool.
This seemed like seeking death.
After all, if they didn’t know this place was an instance in a horror game, the Yang family’s status and power were not something anyone could afford to provoke.
It seemed like this widower was just a cannon fodder NPC set in the instance.
Though many players felt it was a pity, they dared not make a sound, fearing they might get involved, especially with Yang Chenyan looking extremely displeased.
Only two players subtly observed Ruan Qing, their expressions unchanged from start to finish.
One was the player known as ‘Vice President’, and the other was the player Ruan Qing thought smelled similar to the advanced male player from before.
The audience in the live stream didn’t expect the young man to look soft and weak, yet his words turned out to be so sharp.
The Yang family was not a peaceful and safe place; it’s a horror game dungeon, and the people from the Yang family might be the key to this instance.
They might even be the mini-boss of the instance.
Confronting them head-on would be too dangerous and might lead to a bad outcome.
Moreover, the live stream of the player who was just dragged out had mysteriously closed, indicating that something might have happened.
Being kicked out of the hall might even mean death.
Even though Ruan Qing couldn’t see the barrage, the audience in the live stream couldn’t help but advise him.
[Wife, calm down! I know you just lost your husband and can’t stand such words, but isn’t this crazy? Let’s not argue with a fool; otherwise, we’ll be the ones at a disadvantage.]
[Yes, yes, endure for a while, calm the storm, step back, and the sea will be wide and the sky vast. There’s no need to be so stubborn. You’re so fragile; what if you hurt yourself? Think about yourself, and also think about us! It’s not easy for us to find such a good-looking wife!]
[Wife, please, you must live for a few more days! Don’t let me become a widower so soon. You’ve experienced the death of your husband; can you bear to leave me without a wife too?]
[Am I the only one who thinks that the Third Young Master seems a bit jealous? Seeing a little loli pulling on the big sister-in-law’s clothes, his expression changes. He looks so jealous; like he can’t bear to watch.]
These comments were unrelated to the instance’s clues, and players streaming the game could naturally see them.
Normally, players might be speechless, but at this moment, they could fully understand the comments in the barrage.
The young man’s appearance was indeed a bit too exceptional. Even in a crowd, he would stand out, attracting attention at first glance.
Initially, the young man looked a bit gloomy due to his husband’s death. However, under Yang Chenyan’s provocation, his beautiful eyes contained suppressed anger, as if there were traces of shimmering light dispersing within, incredibly captivating.
It looked like the dazzling stars scattered across the sky on a summer night, stunningly beautiful.
Even when angry, this beauty made it impossible for people to look away.
Even those who hover on the edge of life and death like them couldn’t help but have some dark thoughts in their hearts.
But in the terrifying game instance, the boss wouldn’t spare someone just because they looked good.
After hearing Ruan Qing’s words, Yang Chenyan laughed directly, feeling that Ruan Qing was being evasive.
“What’s wrong? Am I right, hitting a nerve with you?”
“You’re not being picky; looking for someone else already?” Yang Chenyan’s gaze fell on Shen Baiyue, and he sneered, “Your taste is getting worse.”
After Yang Chenyan finished speaking, without waiting for Ruan Qing to respond, he turned to him, “But let me tell you, since you’ve married my elder brother, you are a member of our Yang family. Whether in life or death, you can only be a ghost of our Yang family.”
“Even if my elder brother is already dead, you still have to be a widow for him for the rest of your life.”
“Thinking of finding someone else?”
There was a cold and dangerous glint in Yang Chenyan’s eyes as he stared at Ruan Qing, like a fierce wolf locking onto its prey. He harshly uttered two words with no room for negotiation. “Dream on!”
Players: “?”
Not only were the players surprised, but the audience in the livestream room was also shocked.
[Big Brother??? Are you sure the main point is really this? My wife just said you’re brainless and uncultured. Normally, people would be angrier about that, right? Who would focus on the phrase ‘looking for someone else’? I don’t understand.]
[His husband just died. Aren’t these obviously just angry words? And who would look for the husband’s former fiancée when finding someone else? This is too outrageous; this Third Young Master does seem a bit mentally challenged.]
[No, no, he’s definitely jealous. Clearly, he doesn’t allow his sister-in-law to find someone else, but with this statement, isn’t he blocking himself?]
[My Third Young Master, saying such things can’t be taken back easily. We told you not to contradict your sister-in-law. Now, even though I can’t wait to see the Third Young Master regretting, you will definitely cry about this later.]
After hearing Yang Chenyan’s words, Ruan Qing laughed out of anger. He directly put down his chopsticks. “I’ve seen many domineering people, but your Yang family is the first one I’ve seen this domineering.”
“The world is truly full of wonders; I’ve witnessed the diversity of species.”
“But I am not a member of your Yang family. You don’t have the qualifications to control me.”
After saying this, Ruan Qing stood up expressionlessly, intending to leave directly.
Clearly, he didn’t want to see Yang Chenyan’s reaction.
However, as Ruan Qing took a few steps, a voice full of anger sounded behind him. “Since you’re not a part of my Yang family, why are you staying here?”
Yang Chenyan stared at Ruan Qing’s back with intensity, his voice raised a few notches, as if suppressing his anger.
“Steward! Escort the guest out!”
Thanks for the chapter
