I am a god in the secret world

Chapter 291: [Until Death] Sneaking Out

Bai Cha and Xu Taotao squeezed on one bed.

Xu Taotao was very excited and kept chatting with Bai Cha.

She answered Bai Cha's questions one by one.

Bai Cha asked about the background of the world, of course not directly, but indirectly.

Xu Taotao has never left the house.

She grew up in this courtyard, and at most she would go out to visit the lantern festival during the Lantern Festival every year.

Apart from that, her life was pretty dull.

But whether it's about parents or understanding of the outside world, it still makes sense logically, after all, I have never been out.

Until Bai Cha asked about the love suicide.

"Then... if one of the couples in your case dies, will the other commit suicide to show their love?"

Xu Taotao was stunned for a moment.

She stared at the curtains above her head in silence. After a while, she said, "That's why I said I don't want to get married."

"They all thought it was a very touching love story. If you can be with someone who is willing to die for you, it proves that he cares about you very much."

"But I feel a little horrible. I don't know if I'm the only one who feels this way, or if I'm the only one who's different. I really can't accept it, because if he's willing to die for me, doesn't that mean he's also asking me to die for him?"

Xu Taotao looked at Bai Cha, her eyes full of confusion.

"I don't want to die for someone, can't I live?"

When Bai Cha heard this, she got goose bumps all over her body.

She hugged Xu Taotao.

"Of course you have the right to live, so isn't suicide voluntary?"

Xu Taotao shook her head and said, "I don't know, but every couple is like that. If a husband or wife dies and the remaining wife or husband does not commit suicide for love, they will be criticized."

"Just like if I don't want to get married, I will be forced to death."

"I understand..." Bai Cha patted her.

If the plot develops in this way, it is possible that Xu Taotao's father will die soon, and Li will have to commit suicide for love, whether she is willing or not.

Otherwise, you are challenging the rules of this world.

Similarly, Xu Taotao's refusal to get married is also a challenge to the rules.

As long as the rules are broken and this world ceases to exist, or as long as too many rules are violated and the city lord's wife is forced to show up, there will be a way out.

As for the relationship between her and Xu Taotao, it should be resolved if the copy is destroyed.

"Let's go out and play tomorrow." Bai Cha said.

Xu Taotao was stunned.

"Going out to play?"

No one had ever said that to her.

"Yes, but you have to run away secretly, otherwise your family will not agree."

Xu Taotao frowned when she thought about the consequences of telling her family about going out.

"If we tell them, we won't be able to get out. How can we sneak out then?"

Bai Cha pondered.

"First, pretend to be sick and need to rest. Don't let anyone come to the room to disturb you."

"But what if we get exposed?" Xu Taotao was a little nervous.

"What are you afraid of? I can act for you."

Xu Taotao agreed.

"After pretending to be sick, how are we going to get out?"

"What's outside that window behind you? Do servants usually go there? Are you familiar with this place? Is there a back door in your house?"

Xu Taotao thought about it carefully and said, "There is a small garden behind me, and there is also a pond. Someone comes to clean it regularly. It should have just been cleaned yesterday, so there shouldn't be anyone there tomorrow. There is a back door to the kitchen, but there are people in the kitchen."

"It's not a big deal, just be careful."

Xu Taotao was infected by her confident tone, and immediately nodded and began to look forward to it.

"Okay, get some sleep, otherwise you won't have the energy to play tomorrow." Bai Cha patted her.

You know your own body well, and staying up late will deduct a lot of points. Xu Taotao nodded obediently and closed her eyes.

This made Bai Cha's look at her become even more complicated.

So is this really me?

The next day, Bai Cha asked Xu Taotao to hide in the closet.

She came to pretend to be sick.

Anyway, her health was not good to begin with and she was often sick. After the doctor came to see her, he told her to stay in bed and rest, whether she was doing so intentionally or unintentionally.

Li didn't come. I heard that she had been taking care of Xu Taotao's father. She just arranged for Biyun to look after Xu Taotao.

Bai Cha pretended to be irritable and in pain because of illness, and told Biyun not to disturb her today, otherwise she would drive her away.

Biyun had indeed never heard of this and hurried out.

Then Bai Cha sat up and narrowed his eyes.

She did feel that there was something wrong with Biyun.

Come to think of it, she never seemed to call herself a slave.

Although Baicha is also quite disgusted with this kind of hierarchy.

But this is a game world, a world where there is indeed a hierarchy and distinction between masters and servants.

"Does she usually refer to herself as "I" when she talks to you?"

Xu Taotao was stunned for a moment, then hesitated and said, "I haven't paid much attention to it, but it seems to be..."

Although their family is just an ordinary one and they don't pay much attention to etiquette, a maid would still be criticized if she called herself "I".

Baicha lowered her eyes.

She did not sense the scent of dodder on Biyun, so Biyun should not be the city lord's wife, but she should be related to the city lord's wife.

"Let's ignore her for now and go."

Bai Cha taught Xu Taotao how to tie up her clothes to become more capable, otherwise she might not even be able to jump out of the window.

Xu Taotao found it quite strange. Normally, pulling up the hem of a skirt and tying it up should be quite shameful, but she didn't feel too much about it.

All she wanted now was to be able to go out.

The window was gently pushed open.

They successfully climbed through the window and walked towards the kitchen.

Because Master Xu was ill, many maids and servants were sent to the main courtyard in front, as more people were needed to take care of him there.

There weren't that many servants in the house to begin with, and except for the fact that they were almost caught in the middle, they managed to reach the back door of the kitchen without any danger.

But the back door was locked.

"This lock is easy to open. Just let some air out and your skirt can be put down."

Tying up skirts and other things is to prevent the loose sleeves from getting caught on tree branches or something, causing noise.

But if you really go out like this, it will attract too much attention.

Xu Taotao fixed her skirt while looking around nervously.

With a click, the lock was opened.

Bai Cha put down her skirt as well, took Xu Taotao's hand, and the two of them went out quietly.

It was the middle of winter and snowflakes started floating in the sky without anyone noticing.

It's still very cold outside.

But Xu Taotao was very excited and looked at the outside world greedily.

She could say that she had never seen what it was like outside during the day.

There are not many people on the street because today is the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month and tomorrow is New Year's Eve.

New Year's goods and other things have already been purchased.

Now basically everyone is preparing for the New Year at home, and no one will go out.

But no one is good.

Bai Cha pulled Xu Taotao and started jogging.
