A little while later.
The voices in the living room gradually faded away.
Only then did Han Qiuming and Shan Yunmei cautiously open the bedroom door and quietly walk towards the living room.
Shan Yunmei was actually feeling a bit conflicted inside.
Gongyang Jin was indeed great in character, appearance, and physique, and from the observation during this period, his relationship with Han Zhan seemed quite good.
But, the girl named Nuannuan, at first glance, looked like a gentle southern belle, a lady from a noble family, the ideal daughter-in-law in Shan Yunmeiâs mind.
Itâs really difficult to choose.
Han Qiuming didnât think as much as Shan Yunmei did.
He simply wanted gossip, curious to see if his son, bold enough to play the two-timing game, would end up being beaten up.
Even if he were beaten up, heâd deserve it.
On this point, Han Qiumingâs moral compass was still very normal.
The two walked into the living room, only to see Han Zhan sitting there by himself.
Arms and legs intact, perfectly fine.
Han Qiuming and Shan Yunmei exchanged glances, bewildered.
Upon seeing his parentsâ actions and expressions, Han Zhanâs face twitched slightly.
What, seeing me okay, are you two disappointed?
"They... left?" Han Qiuming pointed at the door and asked.
"Yeah, theyâve all gone back to my room." Han Zhan answered truthfully.
Han Qiuming, Shan Yunmei: "???"
What did they hear?
Could it be an auditory hallucination?
"Bacâ Back where?"
"Back to the room, theyâve all gone back to my room."
"Both of them?"
"Yeah, they have."
Ungrateful child! Canât believe my son turned out to be a scoundrel.
Han Qiumingâs face suddenly took on a serious expression, as did Shan Yunmeiâs.
While they deeply cared for Han Zhan, they never took principle matters lightly.
"Xiaozhan, your actions are highly unethical."
"Right now, you can fool them both with your sweet talk, but do you think you can marry them both at the same time?"
"Indeed, which parent doesnât want their child to be well off? Consider other peopleâs feelings; would they want to marry their daughter to someone who plays the two-timing game?"
There was one more point Han Qiuming did not mention.
It just flashed through his mind earlier.
That was, marrying one wife already requires so much money, marrying two would double the cost, wouldnât it?
Looking at his parentsâ stern expressions, Han Zhan knew this was not an issue to gloss over.
However, it was indeed difficult to explain to them his role as a Spirit Contract Master, able to form a contract with the Ancient Divine Weapon Contracted Spirit.
Besides, was there a possibility he wasnât two-timing but rather N-timing?
If he were to bluntly say he formed contracts with so many girls as companions to save the world, he probably wouldnât need to wait till tomorrow before his parents sent him to a psychiatric ward.
So, after some thought, Han Zhan could only offer a different explanation.
"Dad, Mom, I understand your concerns."
"In fact, I have a special identity which brought todayâs Special Envoy Mr. Zeng and earlier Ouannuan here for that very reason."
"You mean, Nuannuan isnât actually your fiancĂ©e?"
"Thatâs right, itâs just a pretense to cover up the truth temporarily."
Han Zhanâs explanation enlightened Shan Yunmei and Han Qiuming.
The afternoon appearance of Zeng Buping indeed didnât seem like a typical person.
As long as it wasnât two-timing, it wasnât so hard to accept.
After explaining to his parents, Han Zhan returned to his room.
Inside the room, Gongyang Jin and Nuannuan had already showered and were snuggled in bed.
Poor Bob, due to excessively cheating, was banned from the Slaughter Battlefield, still working for free for Han Zhan now.
"Todayâs earnings are 2.5 million in sinister gold coins."
Seeing Han Zhan enter, Bob spoke through the speaker beside the computer.
2.5 million, hmm, hearing just this number doesnât mean much, but if you relate it to playing one day, itâs a bit terrifying.
No wonder itâs an Intelligent Mechanical Life.
Han Zhan marveled internally, adding Bobâs 2.5 million to the 11 million he already had, totaling 13.5 million.
He felt more confident about the upcoming scoreboard.
As time ticked by, the clock struck midnight precisely.
The scoreboard appeared, accompanied by new letter rules typed on the electronic screen:
"Congratulations to those who can still view this screen as candidates. Youâve successfully survived the third evening."
"Now, letâs update two changes and two new rules."
"Change one: Realm unlocks two levels."
"Change two: Prepare ten thousand sinister gold coins by tonight at 12 oâclock."
"Rule update: Starting from the fourth day, the alignment will be divided into âgoodâ and âevilâ based on your character identity, with both opposing each other."
"Rule update: From the fourth day, killing a target with a character identity will have a chance to drop the corresponding Character Identity Card."
After introducing new rules, the electronic screen reverted to the scoreboard format.
Currently, there are only six names on the scoreboard.
First place, Han Zhan, fifteen million points.
Second place, Dream Demon Frog, fourteen million five hundred thousand points.
Third place, Zhan Ning, Yu Lian (tied), four million points.
Fifth place, Gongyang Jin, three hundred thousand points.
Sixth place, Fallen Knight, one hundred thousand points.
Aside from the intense competition between first and second places, the rest had a significant gap.
Dream Demon Frog, after leaving the prison cell, indeed started crazily racking up points.
On the scoreboard, Dream Demon Frogâs points began to rise rapidly.
Upon seeing this scene, it seemed like nothing at first, but upon reflection, it was true as Nuannuan said, its rules were excessively biased towards "evil."
Both Bob and Dream Demon Frog exploited bugs to rack up points.
However, Bob got banned, while Dream Demon Frog bounced around happily.
Differential treatment was evident.
Moreover.
Han Zhan lowered his head to look at the sinister gold coin amount he prepared on his phone, his gaze turning cold.
Itâs uncertain who will have the last laugh.
"Are we doing the same as yesterday again?" Gongyang Jin peeked her arm out from under the covers.
Beside her, Nuannuan also cozied up in the covers, revealing a portion of her leg.
Looking at each other, while competing, they gradually tightened their grip on the blanket.
Ultimately, Nuannuan wasnât a match for Gongyang Jinâs strength, having the whole blanket snatched away.
"Poof!" Han Zhan quickly scanned with his eyes and immediately tossed his clothes over to cover Nuannuan.
"You two, keep it moderate, focus on the task at hand!"
"Today weâre holding off on points, going for a last-minute tower steal."
