Because of his leisurely demeanor, the tension in the air dissipated to a great extent.

This was a little boy who could unexpectedly create small miracles.

Zhu Shuangshuang and Meng Jiang approached him, sitting on the blanket with their ghost friends.

Considering the current situation, even if they were to rush up immediately, it would be futile if the vines couldn't hold against those monster children. It's better to sit and wait like this.

Ji Mingrui was still standing there, seeming somewhat embarrassed to come over.

After such an incident just happened, indeed, anyone would feel embarrassed.

He had already apologized sincerely, and Ning Su also forgave him and helped him.

Zhu Shuangshuang felt that since that's the case, the four of them on the fourth floor should still stick together.

"Boss Ji, come over and wait for the results," Zhu Shuangshuang said to him.

Ji Mingrui hesitated for a moment, then walked over here somewhat stiffly and sat beside Zhu Shuangshuang.

"Don't call me Boss Ji anymore," he said. "This is not a world for Boss Ji."

Hearing him say this, Zhu Shuangshuang knew that he had figured things out and accepted it.

Zhu Shuangshuang nodded. "Yes, we have entered a completely new world. Everything from before is irrelevant and shouldn't be dwelled upon."

Zhu Shuangshuang had some guesses about his identity. If it was indeed as she suspected, with his prestigious background, Ji Mingrui used to be a remarkable individual.

The disparity between then and now was truly immense.

In this world, the reversal of social classes was indeed difficult to accept for some people, but they must accept this cruel reality and quickly adapt to the brutal laws of this world.

Ji Mingrui was still somewhat stiff, and he glanced at Meng Jiang beside him.

Meng Jiang appeared completely accustomed to the situation.

Seeing Ji Mingrui looking at him, he candidly spoke, "I've seen this kind of thing many times in dungeons and in the base. It's nothing. This game is just like that."

Ji Mingrui hung his head. His eyes reddened, but for the first time since he started playing the game, he took a relaxed breath.

Whatever was forcefully weighing him down, burdening his tension and anxiety, had disappeared.

Ning Su glanced at Ji Mingrui, who had red-rimmed eyes, and fell silent for a moment.

"You directly entered the third-level game just to prove yourself, right? Don't be like this. Pull yourself together," Ning Su said.

Ji Mingrui smiled briefly.

So, he knew all along.

In the game hall and before entering the castle, he was eager to prove the things he had said, and Ji Mingrui could tell that he was forcing his own ridiculous pride.

Ji Mingrui: "Can't you let me take it easy for a bit?"

Ning Su made a sound of agreement and said, "Then hurry up. I'm still counting on you to perform well and earn more points for me. In case the system doesn't give me points, with your contribution, I won't have to sleep under the bridge."

"..."

Meng Jiang exclaimed, "Boss, you still sleep under the bridge?"

Ning Su replied, "I still have to rely on Zhu Shuangshuang's buns to survive."
