Chapter 249 Vent
Ning Yun listened with great interest to Yang Baiwei's vivid storytelling.

"How did you know so many details?"

They can even tell from everyone's expressions. Could that person be Sister Yang's good friend?
Yang Baiwei laughed and said, "Where? I don't know her. She said so herself."

"You don't know, she told us about that family's fate early this morning. I heard that the family is now behaving themselves, treating them like royalty, and doesn't dare to do anything reckless."

Yang Baiwei had also experienced such a terrible family, and she just felt relieved.

Ning Yun asked curiously, "Logically speaking, her husband should have killed monsters before, so why was he so scared?"

If many people have never killed chickens or fish before, they may not be able to adapt to the game quickly.

But now, even the most timid person can kill monsters without batting an eye.

But why would a man be scared?

Ning Yun was genuinely curious.

After all, she had never been married and her parents had passed away a long time ago, so she didn't understand the intricacies of the situation.

But Xu Ying was different. She was older, had experienced more, and had seen many similar things.

"Many people are bullies who prey on the weak and fear the strong. If you humble yourself a little, the other party will elevate themselves, and over time, problems will arise."

"The woman also said that her family wasn't like this at first. She tolerated it step by step, but people thought she was easy to bully, so they became more and more outrageous."

"So, a woman shouldn't have too good a temper. She has to be tough when necessary and make a scene. Once the other party knows you're not someone to mess with, they'll avoid you."

Ning Yun listened to these words and fell into deep thought.

Yang Baiwei also began to reflect on whether she had been too polite and accommodating to her partner in her previous marriage, which led to the partner becoming increasingly unreasonable.

Ning Yun actually only vaguely understood these things.

But she probably also understands that the same applies to relationships between people; it's difficult to achieve mutual respect.

It's already quite commendable that they don't bully others.

This woman shared her experience not to boast, but simply to remind others.

"In this game, only you are the most important."

Her name is Zhang Chuqiao.

The reason she didn't leave the family was because she knew that going it alone was very dangerous in this game.

Even though her in-laws and husband will definitely resent her and be afraid of her.

But as long as she can maintain her position and suppress them, they will have to listen to her.

Over time, they adapted to this way of getting along, and as long as they weren't pushed to the brink, they wouldn't dare to rebel.

Ultimately, most people are like this: they are used to path dependence and find it difficult to step out of their comfort zone.

Zhang Chuqiao also went through life and death before she suddenly rose to prominence.

Her account resonated with many players.

[My sister is so strong! She beat them all into submission!]

I still think it's very dangerous. What if they team up and kill her while she's sleeping?

It's very simple. This is a game with health bars. It's almost impossible to kill someone in one hit. As long as there's a chance to fight back, seize one and kill them. Even if you die, you'll take someone down with you.

This is similar to a group fight where someone is targeted and beaten to death; nobody dares to gamble on being the unlucky one.

Some people have also used this incident to re-examine their own families.

Actually, living with family 24/7 makes it hard to avoid conflicts; try to compromise whenever possible.

[Tch, you make it sound so easy. Why isn't it the other side who takes a step back?]

Some people were sarcastic, saying that Zhang Chuqiao hadn't seen through her husband's true colors and deserved what she got.

[If you had thought things through more carefully when you started playing the game, you wouldn't be in this terrible state now.] [What are you talking about? Nobody can predict the future. How can you know if someone is a good person or a bad one if you haven't spent this much time together?]

Many people agree with what this person said.

Yes, my ex-husband's family was like that too. Before I had children, they all acted like respectable people, but after I had the baby, they all changed their tune.

They know how to put on an act, unlike us.

A mother-in-law is never a mother, though some are good, and some are even better than a mother, but they are rare.

No matter how good your in-laws are, they'll still side with their son when things get tough. Anyway, my parents and I are all out here, so let's form our own team.

[Me too. Luckily, I was careful back then, and I wasn't killed.]

In survival games, not everyone can still uphold their moral bottom line.

They might not kill people directly, but like Zhang Chuqiao's in-laws, they're always on guard against you, and occasionally they'll trip you up, which is really disgusting.

These people also had similar experiences: they either endured it, went crazy, or left on their own.

A man named Ding Mingyu also cried out in the faction channel.

His mother had passed away long ago, and his father remarried, so when he entered the game, he teamed up with his father-in-law, mother-in-law, and brother-in-law.

He was the only outsider, and he encountered a similar situation.

He was always at the forefront when killing monsters, and he worked the hardest when searching for supplies, but he was always the last to eat, and he always ate the worst food.

Even though his brother-in-law is only a few years younger than him, he can stay at home comfortably eating and enjoying being taken care of by others.

Ding Mingyu initially endured it, and his wife also felt sorry for him, secretly bringing him food.

But as time went on, his father-in-law and mother-in-law went further and further, and even began to openly mock him.

What chilled Ding Mingyu the most was that his father-in-law and mother-in-law forcibly took away the supplies he had risked his life to kill monsters to earn.

They gave it all to his brother-in-law, and Ding Mingyu tolerated it.

But he also has a child, an 8-year-old boy.

Seeing his brother-in-law getting fat while his own son was getting thinner and thinner, he even had to work hard alongside his brother.

Ding Mingyu had completely lost his temper!

But he is not his son's guardian; guardianship is with his wife.

Even if the family of three leaves, without a house, it will be difficult for them to survive.

Until one day, the son was hungry and wanted to ask his uncle for some food. Not only did the uncle refuse to give him any, but he also kicked the son hard.

Ding Mingyu happened to return home and witnessed this scene. He was furious and almost killed his brother-in-law.

By the time he came to his senses, his brother-in-law had been beaten to the point of near death.

His parents-in-law were so frightened that they dared not move, and even his wife looked at him with fear in her eyes.

Ding Mingyu vented almost all the pent-up frustration and anger he had been holding in for so long.

Before his wife could react, he picked up their son and asked her a question.

"I'm leaving with my son now. Do you want to come with me, or stay here?"

The wife stared at everything before her, completely bewildered.

She didn't understand why things had come to this.

Ding Mingyu's parents-in-law were the first to react and quickly grabbed him, preventing him from leaving.

What a joke, they know their youngest son's character.

If Ding Mingyu, that great traitor, were gone, the old couple certainly wouldn't be living such a comfortable life.
