From Resident Evil to becoming a gacha god

Chapter 100 Only by enduring hardship can one become a servant.

Her face was oval-shaped, her lips were full, her nose was straight, and her eyebrows were thin and long.

Ren Tingting, the heiress of a wealthy family, naturally possesses a superior appearance. The Ren family's solid economic foundation also allows her to maintain this appearance. Wearing expensive dresses, she becomes even more radiant.

Money can nourish people. A woman with a 50-point appearance can improve to a 70-point level with the nourishment of money. Conversely, a 70-point woman will be ravaged by the trivialities of life and the daily grind, and her skin will gradually become rough, causing her to drop to a 50-point or even lower.

Ren Tingting was dazzling, and Tokushima Yako beside her was even more eye-catching; the two women, wherever they stood, were a stunning sight.

As the person chatting with the two beautiful women, Xiao Miao enjoyed the treatment of a celebrity, and the men around him cast envious and jealous glances at him.

Xiao Miao accepted it calmly. Only a mediocre person wouldn't be envied. The envious glances around her were also part of the emotional value that comes with a beautiful woman.

"Hello, Mr. Xiao, my name is Ren Tingting."

"Hello there."

Xiao Miao shook hands with Ren Tingting, exchanged a few words, and then turned to Busujima Yako: "Anyone you like?"

Saeko Busujima nodded: "I've made my choice."

Xiao Miao walked into the store, and naturally took Dokushima Yako's hand. The two intertwined their fingers and said, "Let's go pay the bill."

Ren Tingting followed beside Tokushima Yako and whispered enviously, "Your husband is so good to you."

Xiao Miao bought a bunch of bags and packages, and the way he paid without even looking at the prices made the female shop assistants' eyes light up. Coupled with his handsome appearance, Xiao Miao instantly became the top good man in their hearts, and they couldn't wait to offer themselves to him.

Unfortunately, good men are never short of beautiful women, and Xiao Miao's side is already full.

The good-natured shop assistants silently offered their blessings, while the bad-natured ones glared at the two women, Tokushima and Yako, gritting their teeth and cursing them to be abandoned when they grew old and lost their beauty.

Busujima bought a bunch of things, while Ren Tingting didn't buy anything. Xiao Miao had plenty of activity funds and wanted to give Ren Tingting something to increase her favorability and make it easier to start the subsequent Renjia Town storyline, but Ren Tingting firmly refused.

Unlike some people Xiao Miao had encountered in her past life whose acceptance of gifts did not necessarily mean their agreement, Ren Tingting was very principled and sensitive in this regard, and had her own set of values.

After leaving the clothing store, the three headed to the largest and most famous cosmetics store in Goose City, which was Ren Tingting's main destination.

On the way, Ren Tingting and Tokushima Yako held hands and whispered to each other, glancing at Xiao Miao from time to time and chuckling, looking every bit like best friends.

Xiao Miao found it hard to understand. Women's friendships are really strange. The two had only known each other for less than a morning, yet they had already become best friends, holding hands and whispering secrets.

Boys' friendships don't develop that quickly unless they share the same tragic experiences and have attended a 50-mark speech in the same beer hall.

Xiao Miao had excellent hearing. He didn't have a habit of eavesdropping on women's whispers, but the two women's conversation drifted into his ears on the breeze, making it hard not to hear.

Ren Tingting is very familiar with Echeng because she studied there. A while ago, when school was on holiday, she went back to her hometown to visit relatives, only to find that she had run out of rouge and face powder.

Ren Tingting was not a pampered girl and did not have a penchant for using brand-name products. She originally wanted to buy all the necessary supplies at a local cosmetics shop, but the shop assistant mistook her for a prostitute and humiliated her. She cried on the spot and ran home.

Afterwards, Ren Tingting became angrier the more she thought about it, but she had just learned how to do makeup and was in the most interesting stage, so she came to Echeng to buy things. The Ren family didn't lack the travel expenses.

Was she humiliated as a prostitute?

Upon hearing the keywords, Xiao Miao recalled the plot in his mind, realizing that this must have happened at the beginning of the movie "Mr. Zombie".

You can go and participate in the storyline, and while you're at it, try to increase Master Lin's favorability at the mortuary to draw a character card.

After buying the cosmetics, Ren Tingting was about to head back to Renjia Town. It was getting late, and if she left now, she could make it home in time for dinner.

"Let's go together, we're going to Renjia Town anyway," Xiao Miao said. Tokushima Yako paused for a moment, then nodded in agreement.

Ren Tingting was somewhat surprised: "Are you going to Renjia Town too?"

She learned Xiao Miao's identity from Poison Island Yako: a wandering Taoist priest, a capable person.

To her, Xiao Miao and his wife seemed to be from another world.

During her school years, Ren Tingting met many young men and women, and heard about the strange and wonderful stories of Taoist priests, monks, and ghosts from them. She had also read similar novels herself.

In the stories described in the book, if powerful figures specifically request to go to a certain place, there is no doubt that something bad will happen there.

Ren Tingting had a bad feeling. Could Renjia Town be that unlucky?

Xiao Miao nodded: "Yes, I've done some calculations and I know that things aren't going well in Renjia Town lately, so I'm planning to go check it out."

"Just as I thought!" Ren Tingting exclaimed inwardly, her face showing worry. "Then let's go to the dock now. The small steamer to Renjia Town departs in an hour. If we miss it, we'll have to wait until tomorrow."

Steamships, also known as small steamboats, were originally used for inland waterway transportation. After being converted into passenger ships, they became the preferred mode of transportation for wealthy people in riverside towns.

On the way, Ren Tingting's enthusiasm for conversation waned, replaced by worry about the safety of her family.

She didn't doubt that Xiao Miao and Tokushima Yako were frauds, because Xiao Miao was generous and really rich, unlike some feng shui masters and Taoist priests who only talked about money. How could such a person be a fraud?

As evening fell, the passenger ship arrived in Renjia Town. The Ren family had sent people to wait at the dock to take Ren Tingting home.

Xiao Miao and Du Daoya called two rickshaws. When they arrived at the Ren residence, Ren Tingting insisted on paying for them. In her words, Xiao Miao and Du Daoya were there to help the villagers. As a prominent local family, how could the Ren family let the two of them pay for their own travel expenses? They had to do their duty as hosts.

Xiao Miao couldn't persuade Ren Tingting otherwise, so she went with her.

At this moment, the gates of the Ren residence opened, and Master Ren, dressed in an expensive silk robe, strode out, shaking hands with Xiao Miao with a smile: "Hahaha, I am so sorry for not welcoming you properly, please!"

The Ren family welcomed Xiao Miao and his companion into the mansion. After a pleasant dinner, Master Ren invited Xiao Miao to stay at the Ren residence.

The Ren family mansion is the setting for many important plot points, so staying there would be very convenient. Xiao Miao agreed and, led by a servant, went to the guest room.

After Xiao Miao left, Master Ren dismissed the servants, leaving only Ren Tingting behind. The smile on his face gradually faded: "Tingting, you're too trusting!"

Ren Tingting, confused, asked, "Dad, what's wrong?"

Master Ren shook his head and sighed, "That couple are liars, you've been fooled!"

Ren Tingting naturally didn't believe it: "They didn't lie to me about anything. They even offered me a gift at the clothing store this morning. They never mentioned asking us to pay anything. They're definitely not scammers!"

Mr. Ren looked at his daughter with a worried expression. How come he hadn't noticed before that his daughter was so stupid?

Fortunately, it was discovered in time, allowing her to see the darkness in people's hearts as soon as possible. Otherwise, once this silly girl was out of my care, she would have been tricked into getting pregnant before long!

"Tingting, do you think those two are rich and generous, and they didn't bring up money, so they're not scammers?" Mr. Ren decided to teach his good daughter a lesson with facts.

"Yes," Ren Tingting nodded, "Why would rich people need to scam money?"

Mr. Ren sighed, "Tingting, you're wrong. Rich people are the best at swindling money; in fact, it's precisely because they're good at swindling that they're rich!"

Ren Tingting's eyes widened: "So, Dad, you're a liar too?"

"I..." Mr. Ren did not expect his daughter to turn the tables on him: "Our Ren family is different. We are blessed by our ancestors because our ancestral graves are in a good location. The recent relocation of the graves was for this reason."

"In short, you'll soon find out whether they're frauds or not. When Master Lin comes tomorrow, their true colors will be revealed!"

Watching his daughter storm off in a huff, Mr. Ren slowly shook his head.

Silly girl, where do you think rich people get their money from?

Do you work hard and persevere?

Don't be ridiculous. Traditional Chinese medicine emphasizes the principle of "you are what you eat," and the same applies to this society! "No pain, no gain," and "only by eating others can you rise above others!"
