Chapter 395 Call Me Dad
Chapter 395 Call Me Dad
Ever since she began to suspect that the person Yo-Yo was talking about was herself, Lu Youyou has believed that every swear word he utters is directed at her.
Of course, many people on the public screen shared the same sentiment, telling Yoyo to stop cursing.
Lu Youyou initially felt a bit upset, but seeing so many people accepting the insults made her find it somewhat amusing.
Suddenly, the watch vibrated violently.
[A player has requested a video call with you. Do you agree?]
Without thinking, Lu Youyou hung up immediately.
She didn't even know who this person was, how could she be so careless as to accept the video call?
But three seconds after hanging up, another video request came in.
Lu Youyou hung up the video call again and left a message for the other party.
[Lu Youyou: You'll face the consequences if you make another video call.]
hum~
Player "DaDaDeRen" has sent you a gift. Please check it promptly.
"What a strange man."
Lu Youyou muttered to herself as she opened the compartment of her backpack.
It's a bottle of gene adhesive!
Once she uses this skill, she is no longer a normal human being, but rather randomly acquires the skill or talent of gene fusion.
Lu Youyou has complicated feelings about the gene adhesive.
When she couldn't get this thing, she really wanted it and even thought about which monsters' genes she could fuse with.
But once she got it, she didn't want to use it anymore; she still wanted to be a human.
[A player has requested a video call with you. Do you agree?]
The video call request appeared again, and Lu Youyou removed her mask and chose to answer.
The image on the other side was blurry and shaky, as if it were running.
The person didn't have a full face; only a head of gray hair moved up and down with the movements.
Judging from the background behind him, it looks like he's in a room.
"You video call me, aren't you going to say anything?" Lu Youyou asked.
"Wait until I find a safe place!"
The man's voice was rough and hoarse, a voice she had never heard before.
Lu Youyou was certain once again that she did not know this big guy.
About a minute later, the other side found a safe place, and the screen stopped shaking.
In the video, an elderly man who could be her grandfather greets her kindly.
"Hello, Lu Youyou, you can call me Dad."
Lu Youyou doubted her own ears, but not the Mandarin spoken by the person opposite her.
"What did you say I should call you?"
The old man smiled kindly and said, "Dad, 'Dad' means father."
"Damn, you stupid old man."
After saying that, Lu Youyou immediately hung up the video call.
She thought the other party was offering her gene adhesive without saying a word because they had something important to help with, but it turned out they were just trying to take advantage of her.
Soon, the watch vibrated again; it was the same person calling.
Lu Youyou angrily pressed the "reject" button, but the video call request continued, disturbing her from doing her own thing.
Finally, Lu Youyou couldn't hold back any longer.
She answered the video call impatiently, "What exactly do you want? I'll return the gene adhesive to you. I can't operate anything with these constant video requests."
“My name is Deng Ni, you can call me Uncle Deng. I’m not making this video call to ask for the gene adhesive back.”
Lu Youyou: ……
"Okay, old Deng, what do you want?"
"I don't want anything, but I've run into some difficulties. Can we team up?"
Lu Youyou refused outright, but the other party was still persistent.
"I'm an old man, can't you show me some respect? Once I get through this crisis, I'll definitely reward you."
"How old are you?" Lu Youyou asked.
"One...seventy-three."
"Seventy-three? I thought you just looked old, but I didn't expect you to be really old. How did you manage to live to be seventy-three?"
Denny was speechless, but still patiently replied, "Don't worry about how I survived, I'm alive anyway. I have a lot of stuff in my backpack, and it's all yours if you team up with me."
"why me?"
"You're interested in me? Oh, don't misunderstand, not in that way. I have no children. If you become my daughter, you can inherit everything I have."
Lu Youyou wasn't a materialistic person, but for some reason, she couldn't bring herself to hang up the phone, as if something was preventing her from doing so.
"What's in your backpack?" she asked.
After asking that question, she felt the power to control herself disappear.
Lu Youyou called this power intuition.
The other side quickly sent a screenshot showing high-level pills and high-level item cards, with each item having a quantity of no less than three digits.
Even the Golden Mist Core has 999!
Lu Youyou had met wealthy people, such as Wang Qiao, who was the luckiest person she had ever met.
In the end, it still couldn't compare to one of Old Deng's fingers.
She asked incredulously, "You're giving me all of these?"
Denny raised an eyebrow: "I will give it to you, but not now. After all, you are not my daughter yet. I need to choose a good owner for my inheritance. You should understand, right?"
Lu Youyou nodded: "I understand. You just want to adopt a goddaughter, right? I can do that. After you die, I'll give you a grand funeral and chant your name ten thousand times a day to pray for your well-being."
Denny laughed heartily, but still shook his head.
"It's not that simple. I need to go and observe you. If you're not up to the task, I'll find someone else."
"Do you have other goddaughter candidates in mind?"
"Wang Qiao or Jiang Aiyuan."
"Oh."
Since Deng Ni finished speaking, he had been observing Lu Youyou's expression. He thought he would see jealousy or resentment on Lu Youyou's face, but he didn't want to see a negative expression on her face.
He hesitated for a long time, but Lu Youyou didn't react at all.
Despite his disappointment, he felt a surge of pride.
As expected of the person he chose, he loves money but is not greedy.
"So I said, if we team up and you really treat me like your own father, everything I have is yours, how about it?"
How can I guarantee you won't hurt me?
"Wait a moment."
One minute later, Lu Youyou's watch vibrated.
[Player "Big Guy" assures you that if anything goes wrong for you during your time together, the watch assistant Xiao Lu will immediately eliminate him.]
Lu Youyou was stunned for a moment. Such a vicious oath?
The second reaction was to question it.
"Xiao Lu, you wouldn't be helping one player trick another, would you?"
Please rest assured, Xiao Lu treats all players equally and will not cheat any player because of one.
Lu Youyou was relieved.
Provided that safety is guaranteed, no one would want the things in Denny's backpack, and she was no exception.
She couldn't guarantee whether others were sincere or not towards Denny, but she was certain she would be a good nanny.
"Old Deng, emmm Old Deng, teleport over here, let's form a temporary team."
"Okay."
Player "DaDaDeRen" has sent you a gift. Please check it promptly.
Lu Youyou opened her backpack slots, and the first slot displayed [Golden Mist Core *1].
Old Deng is so generous!
“Ding-dang.”
There was a knock on the car door.
Seeing an old man actually appear under the car, an old man without a car, Lu Youyou's fleeting guess resurfaced.
This old man is an NPC, not a human.
Who can abandon a vehicle and go somewhere else?
