Chapter 213
half year later.

Liu Ruyan was sitting at home, folding the clothes that had just been dried.

As the night was getting late, Cai Renzhou went out early in the morning and hasn't come back until now.

She got up and was about to go out to find the tavern when someone kicked open the gate of the small yard.

Cai Renzhou was drunk, his face was flushed with alcohol, and he ran in hastily.

As soon as he came in, he slammed the door shut, then leaned against the door, panting heavily.

Liu Ruyan greeted her.

"Husband," she whispered, "Have you bumped into the Second Prince's man again?"

After she left the Lin family, she didn't go back to Shaoyun Tower, but followed Cai Renzhou.

Cai Renzhou refused to leave the capital, and she happened to have some silver savings, so the two bought a dilapidated yard in the suburbs.

She grew up in a brothel since she was a child, and her biggest dream is to have a family. Now that there is her beloved in this family, Liu Ruyan is already satisfied.

But Cai Renzhou was not satisfied, he was still under the account of the second prince, and after leaving the Lin family, he was ridiculed everywhere.Cai Renzhou was in a bad mood, so he indulged in taverns all day long, and came back drunk every day.

Cai Renzhou opened Liu Ruyan's hand, and walked towards the room crookedly.

Liu Ruyan was startled for a moment, then hurriedly rushed forward.

Cai Renzhou lay on the bed and let out a long breath.Liu Ruyan fetched water and wanted to wipe his face, but Cai Renzhou opened it directly.

"Husband..." Liu Ruyan called out in a low voice.

"Don't call me," Cai Renzhou said, "I'm going to drink today, but it turns out..."

He hiccupped, and said heavily: "Meet your regular customer, he laughed at me, saying that I married a scumbag who sleeps thousands of people and will be my baby at home, hahahaha——"

Liu Ruyan's heart tightened, and she looked at him blankly: "Yes, but I am no longer—"

"Dirty goods will always be dirty goods, and it's a shame to say it!" Cai Renzhou said hysterically.

Liu Ruyan sat aside silently, listening to Cai Renzhou yelling.

After a while, she got up and picked up the clothes on the bed.

This was done by her for the neighbor next door, and she could at least make some money for a living by washing a few copper plates at a time.

However, Cai Renzhou got up and kicked her stomach: "Wash and wash, I know how to wash all day long, how much money can I get for doing so much? It's not enough for me to drink a pot of wine."

He paused and said, "Your old customer said today that if you go to him once tomorrow, he will give me ten taels of silver. Don't forget it."

Liu Ruyan's mind went blank, she never expected that he would say such a thing.

"I'm not going," she said. "I'm not a whore now."

"Is there any difference?" Cai Renzhou snarled: "Have you forgotten that I still owe the second prince tens of thousands of taels? Do you want to watch me die? If it wasn't for you, why would I be kicked out by the Lin family? Lin Jiajia obviously still has feelings for me, and it was you who ran over and talked nonsense that made her divorce me. It's really unlucky, because of a woman like you, it has come to this point. Fortunately, I didn't listen to your nonsense back then. If you stay in a remote mountainous area, you won’t be able to sell it for ten taels of silver.”

He muttered, while venting his anger, his voice gradually decreased.

Liu Ruyan stood where she was, feeling her whole body lost consciousness, and only one sentence echoed in her mind.

I can't even sell it for ten taels of silver...

She escaped from that place with great difficulty, is she going to continue to live this kind of life now?
"I met the madam a few days ago." Liu Ruyan whispered suddenly: "She said that the night I was with the second prince was not done by her. To this day, she has no reason to lie to me. She went to my house back then. The only person in the room is you..."

Only he could drug her so unknowingly.

It was him who used his guilt to ask himself to introduce him to the second prince. For his sake, she didn't even dare to offend the second prince, so she had to endure the torture of the other day after day.

She just fell in love with him and fell in love, why did she fall into such a situation.

Liu Ruyan suddenly remembered Lin Jiajia's smile when she was at Lin's house that day.

She suddenly understood why Lin Jiajia had never thought of pursuing them at that time, because Lin Jiajia knew very well that even if she did not intervene, the fate of herself and Cai Renzhou would not be much better.

The candlelight flickered slightly, and the man on the bed fell asleep with a strong smell of alcohol, and from time to time, he uttered a few words of nonsense, as if in a dream, he did not try to shirk his responsibility, and insulted the injustice of the world to him.

Liu Ruyan was cold all over, she looked at the needle, thread and scissors beside her, which she used to mend clothes, the scissors were sharpened by someone not long ago, they were extremely sharp.

The swaying shadows on the dirt wall gradually overlapped, and when the screams sounded, the shadows swayed, waking up the sleeping people in the whole street.

**
The butler hurried to Lin Jiajia's side and whispered a few words.

Lin Jiajia hummed, expressing understanding.

She put down the account book in her hand, and heard the announcement from the system as she wished.

[The current task has been completed, the happiness of the task is [-], the completion of the additional task is [-], the task is over, please get ready and return to the task platform immediately. 】

Lin Jiajia was startled. It was not 688's voice.

What surprised her even more was that usually there would be a buffer time after the end of the task, but this time it didn't seem to give her any time to breathe.

What is wrong with the system?Or was 688 called back for rectification because of something?

It's just that when the system didn't give her any doubts, as the mission world quickly broke into spots of light, Lin Jiajia was already on the mission platform when things returned to normal.

The score of this mission is displayed on the light curtain in front of him, which is A grade.But what is different from the past is that a big WARNING appeared in the middle of the light curtain, and the system's boring and single tone kept repeating.

[The big data world library has suffered an unknown attack, and the system is currently being upgraded. Please log out of the system immediately and wait for the notification! 】

what's the situation?
Lin Jiajia was taken aback.

She waited for a while, but the system just repeated this sentence monotonously, without giving any useful information.

Reluctantly exiting the mission cabin, Lin Jiajia walked into the hall of the Space-Time Administration.

Apparently, she wasn't the only one who received such a message. The hall of the Administration Bureau was full of people. They were all restorers, and it seemed that they should all be kicked out by the system.

A group of restorers gathered there, waiting for the notification, but there was no reply from above. Lin Jiajia waited for a while, walked to the data monitoring screen and clicked a few times, but there was no problem.

She hesitated for a moment, entered her restorer number, and found the information of the corresponding system, but was shocked to find that the information profile interface of 688 was actually empty.
