She is the Side Character! — Watch Her Change her fate!

The people present here are all from privileged backgrounds, standing in their positions, earning five million is certainly simple, perhaps some make more than five million in interest alone in a month.

Actually, he’s doing pretty well now too, with a good brother like Huo Jingchen leading him, earning a few million a year is not a problem. As long as the Huo Family remains stable, he’ll only make more in the future, which is far better than when he was a fresh graduate, running around tirelessly to make a measly one or two thousand. A slightly easier job would mean making four to six thousand, barely making ends meet.

Thinking about it this way, the little bit of frustration in Wei Yao’s heart instantly disappeared; one has to be content to be happy.

After the handwriting disappeared, Huo Jingchen wrote down another question, this time it was valid: Do you stay up late at night?

Wei Wenlan: Almost every day, rarely not staying up.

Qin Lin: Occasionally.

Wei Yao: Often.

Ah Chen: Occasionally.

Bai Xingwen: Fitness enthusiasts can’t stay up late unless something unexpected happens; otherwise, I always go to bed on time.

Everyone glanced at each other’s answers. In this day and age, staying up late is nothing unusual, so when they saw Bai Xingwen’s answer, many were surprised.

Wei Wenlan commented, ”I didn’t expect you to have such a regular lifestyle.”

”Of course, otherwise, where do you think I got my good physique from?” Bai Xingwen was not modest when praised, but rather proud, ”Don’t look at Huo Jingchen’s face being comparable to mine, take his clothes off, and his physique is definitely not as good as mine. Last time in the swimming pool, I saw him; he has a good physique but can’t compare to mine,” he laughed, ”Mr. Huo, you need to maintain your physique well, or in a few years, you might end up with a bald head and a big belly. Men need to pay attention to their image, or when we stand together again, you’ll feel inferior.”

Everyone: ...

Huo Jingchen was also speechless, but in this place, he really didn’t have the heart to argue with Bai Xingwen.

But Bai Xingwen was right; one really does need to pay attention to their image.

”Now it’s only Chenchen and Wei Yao left to ask,” Huo Jingchen said, ”Which one of you will go first?”

Wei Yao hesitated with the writing board, wondering whether to write down the question on his mind, his expression showing some conflict.

Meanwhile, Ah Chen seemed not to notice, writing on the board: Have you ever had a tooth filling?

Everyone saw the question and was stunned. It truly was a question; how did she think of it? Generally, who would ask such a question? But clearly, after this question, any similar ones from the remaining people would be invalid.

Fortunately, only Wei Yao was left now; it was quite simple for him to come up with a question.

In everyone’s view, the first level shouldn’t be too challenging. They couldn’t possibly get eliminated all at once, could they?

The audience’s answers came quickly.

Wei Wenlan: No.

Bai Xingwen: No.

Wei Yao: Filled two.

Qin Lin: No.

Huo Jingchen: Filled one.

”Haha, Mr. Huo, it seems your teeth aren’t in the best shape,” Bai Xingwen mocked, ”You should pay more attention and get regular check-ups.”

Huo Jingchen’s expression was numb; he didn’t feel like arguing with Bai Xingwen at all.

Bai Xingwen was always at odds with him, but he didn’t expect the other party to come to such a perilous place out of mere curiosity. Regardless of the reason, the other party actually saved him once.

Finally, it was Wei Yao’s turn. He held the writing board, eventually gritted his teeth, and wrote the question he wanted to ask.

Being in this place, he hoped his good brother could see the truth clearly and wanted to help him understand what Qin Lin was thinking.

After all, he also prepared for the worst, that maybe they all might falter here. It’s better to speak the truth clearly.

So, the question he wrote down was: Who is the person you like at the moment?

He then raised the writing board, and after a glance, everyone looked down to write their answers.

Qin Lin was particularly hesitant; Huo Jingchen’s expression also changed, and they both temporarily didn’t write, unable to resist looking up, unexpectedly catching each other’s eyes.

Neither expected Wei Yao to ask such a question. Now caught in a dilemma, they could only give the correct answer, as lying would definitely trigger a rule.

Bai Xingwen was the first to raise his board: Currently, no one.

Followed by Wei Wenlan: Currently, no one.

The answers were surprisingly identical. The two exchanged a look and then turned their gaze to the others, specifically to Huo Jingchen, indicating their interest in his answer.

Wei Wenlan thought, now is not the time to lie; it’s the best test of a person’s true feelings. If Huo Jingchen’s answer was Chenchen, even if Chenchen had a somewhat love-struck brain and insisted on getting involved, at least it meant she had his heart and it wasn’t in vain.

If not... Wei Wenlan was a bit worried. Would Chenchen, being so fond of Huo Jingchen, accept such an answer?

This place is fraught with dangers, and she felt rather irritated that Wei Yao was so tactless to ask this kind of question. If it led to an accident, inadvertently triggering the rules and prompting a monster hunt, wouldn’t that be harmful?

Wei Yao sighed deeply, feeling some regret. But having written it down, he couldn’t change it. He could only brave it out.

Huo Jingchen looked up to find Wei Wenlan and Bai Xingwen staring at him.

At the same time, Ah Chen looked up, smiling at him: ”What’s your answer?”

At that moment, Huo Jingchen felt very guilty. He couldn’t lie here and could only reluctantly raise the board; the name written on it was: Qin Lin

Immediately following, Huo Jingchen showed an apologetic look: ”I’m sorry.”

”It’s actually Qin Lin?” Wei Wenlan exclaimed, ”You like Qin Lin, so why did you get engaged to our Chenchen and act so considerate, making everyone outside think you love Chenchen deeply?”

Huo Jingchen didn’t respond, remaining silent.

Bai Xingwen wasn’t too surprised, having once seen Huo Jingchen and Qin Lin quarreling, he had suspected there was some history between them.

”Miss Qin, what’s your answer?” Bai Xingwen asked with great interest, not averse to stirring the pot.

From their previous quarreling, he believed their relationship might not be over.

Qin Lin took a deep breath and raised the writing board; the answer was indeed: Huo Jingchen

”We broke up a long time ago,” she said, ”after breaking up, we never got back together.”

Implying she didn’t interfere with Li Chen and Huo Jingchen.

”Did you get engaged to me to forget Qin Lin, or was there another purpose?” Ah Chen asked, ”You must answer.”

At this point, Huo Jingchen had to admit, ”I wanted to make Linlin anxious, sorry. If we all make it out, I will compensate you. I know this is unfair to you; you can set any condition.”

Ah Chen narrowed her eyes, ”Fine, the first condition is that you make public the truth about our engagement, letting everyone know your motive. I don’t want, after breaking up, people saying how I didn’t treasure such a romantic Mr. Huo. After breaking up, people should criticize you a bit for my mood to be uplifted.”

”The second condition is to give me half of your shares in the Huo Family.”

”These two conditions presuppose you’re alive.”

”But you might also die here, so you need to write a will explaining the purpose of our engagement, then leave the inheritance to me as compensation.”

Huo Jingchen: ...

He still agreed, ”Okay, no matter the outcome, as long as someone gets out, I’ll ask them to reveal the truth.”

Her reaction was much better than expected. If everyone remained calm and got through, the survival odds would be greater.

No one expected it to turn out this way, even Bai Xingwen had nothing more to say.

Just then, Ah Chen raised her writing board, and everyone stared at the two words on it, stunned.

Bai Xingwen burst into laughter.
