I Carry a Game World With Me

Lu Feng was truly stunned by the final notification from the V-Shield detection watch.

It could even directly detect if a person had any illnesses?

’Does that mean if someone gets sick, you could just use this V-Shield detection watch to find out what’s wrong with them?’

’This feature is a bit like Baymax’s medical scanning function from *Big Hero 6*.’

And with technology so far ahead of the present day, he believed that even if the detection function couldn’t identify every single illness, it could definitely identify most of the obvious ones.

This V-Shield detection watch was, without a doubt, a fantastic piece of gear.

"Boss, the Gold jewelry is all packed." Xu Bin walked over, carrying a travel bag.

Lu Feng took the bag and could immediately feel it was much heavier than the Gold jewelry he had taken out before.

’With the jade jewelry added in, this is a massive haul.’

"Let’s go. Back upstairs." As Lu Feng spoke, he was already carrying the Gold and jade jewelry out of the jewelry store and heading up to the Qingfeng Tea Shop.

Since there was still a lot of Qingfeng Tea here, he decided to continue using it as his base.

Back in the Qingfeng Tea Shop, Lu Feng willed himself out of the game.

Lin Jiao and Xu Bin exchanged a look, already used to this strange sight.

Then, the two of them started moving the tea tables in the Qingfeng Tea Shop to barricade the main entrance.

The boss had caused quite a commotion today, so this made them feel a little more secure.

...

Lu Feng appeared in his apartment and placed the bag of Gold and jade jewelry under his bed.

Once he dealt with these two bags of goods, he would have enough money to cover the tea factory’s needs and buy a car and a house, all in one go.

Then he would finally have the confidence to face Yang Qingxue’s mother.

Just as he was thinking this, his phone rang.

It was a call from Yang Qingxue.

Lu Feng quickly answered, and Yang Qingxue’s tearful voice came through the phone. "Lu Feng, can you come to my dorm?"

"Qingxue, what’s wrong?" Lu Feng immediately sensed something was amiss and asked urgently.

Yang Qingxue said helplessly, "My mom’s here, in my dorm. She wants you to come over."

Lu Feng knew the reason at once.

Yang Qingxue’s mother had always been against her being with him, even constantly trying to set her up on blind dates.

Now she had personally come all the way to Youcheng and wanted to see him. Her intentions were obvious.

It was just like a plot from a TV drama—she was here to break them up.

"Qingxue, don’t cry, and don’t worry. I’m on my way," Lu Feng quickly comforted Yang Qingxue. After hanging up, he rushed out the door and hailed a Didi to her dorm.

’Looks like I’ll have to face Yang Qingxue’s mother sooner than I thought.’

To be honest, he knew how Yang Qingxue’s mother felt about him, but he didn’t hate her for it.

He knew her family’s situation, which was somewhat similar to his own.

Yang Qingxue’s father hadn’t had much money either.

When Yang Qingxue’s mother was young, she had married her father without a second thought.

But when Yang Qingxue was in elementary school, her father fell gravely ill. He passed away even after surgery, leaving the family with a mountain of debt.

Yang Qingxue’s mother had to be both a father and a mother, paying off all that money bit by bit while working tirelessly to raise Yang Qingxue.

Now, seeing Yang Qingxue about to follow in her footsteps, she was naturally unwilling to let it happen.

She had lived such a hard life herself; how could she be willing to let her daughter make the same mistake?

Even without that reason, who would want their own daughter to suffer for her entire life?

’At least, if I have a daughter in the future, I definitely wouldn’t want that for her.’

If he hadn’t obtained the world of *After the Apocalypse*, his mother’s treatment would have definitely plunged him into a debt he didn’t know when he could ever repay.

In that case, the best he could have done would probably be to let Yang Qingxue go and not hold her back.

That might have been the most decent thing he could do.

But things were different now. With the world of *After the Apocalypse*, his life had already changed dramatically.

So he would hold on to Yang Qingxue tightly and treat her well.

A girl who still loves you when you’re at your lowest and most helpless, who is even willing to give you the 50,000 yuan she worked so hard to save for your mother’s treatment—if you don’t treat her well for the rest of your life, you’re worse than an animal.

「Xia Gang Street.」

Inside a dorm room.

Yang Qingxue put down her phone, still looking at her mother through her sobs. "Mom..."

Her voice was frail, tinged with a hint of pleading.

Lin Jiajia hurried forward to comfort her. "Qingxue, don’t cry. Auntie is just doing this for your own good. Besides, you have no idea what Lu Feng’s situation is really like. Auntie and I went to the hospital to ask around, so we know better than you do."

Beside them, Chen Fen looked at her disappointing daughter and couldn’t help but sigh. "Qingxue, why won’t you just listen to me? Do you really want to live a life like mine? Don’t you know how hard that is?"

Yang Qingxue nodded decisively. "Mom, I’m not afraid... I’ll earn my own money in the future. Lu Feng and I will be fine..."

"Fine?" Chen Fen sighed again. "Do you have any idea how much money was spent on Lu Feng’s mother this time? I went to the hospital and asked. The surgery alone cost 500,000 yuan, and she was in the ICU for a while. That must have been 20,000 a day, right?"

"All told, his mother’s illness must have cost 600,000 to 700,000 yuan. You know Lu Feng’s family situation perfectly well. He doesn’t have any money, so all of that has to be debt."

"If you stay with him, leaving everything else aside, you’ll have to share this debt. Who knows how long it will take to pay it off, let alone whether you’ll ever be able to buy your own home."

"Have you thought about how terrifying a life like that would be? Are you sure you can endure it forever?"

Yang Qingxue bit her lip, not answering the question. After a moment of silence, she said in a firm tone, "I’m not afraid... I believe Lu Feng will work hard!"

"You... why are you so stubborn?" Seeing her daughter’s resolute attitude, Chen Fen was exasperated.

But more than anger, she felt helpless.

She had been just as stubborn when facing her own parents. Who knew her daughter would inherit that very trait.

She could now understand much better why her parents had tried to stop her back then.

Thinking of the past, she sighed again, this time to herself.

She didn’t regret her own choice, but she truly didn’t want her daughter to walk the same path.

She wasn’t asking her daughter to marry into a fabulously wealthy family, but she should at least have a life free from worries about food and clothing, with a small house of her own and some savings, so she wouldn’t have to live so restrictively.

Real life really isn’t a fairytale.

Seeing Yang Qingxue’s determined expression, Lin Jiajia also tried to persuade her, though she felt it was hopeless. "Qingxue, I know Lu Feng is a good person, or you wouldn’t like him. But you have so much going for you; you really don’t have to tie yourself to him. You can have a much better life."

But Yang Qingxue remained silent, not saying a word.

Finally, Chen Fen also fell silent.

She knew she couldn’t get through to her daughter. Her only option was to wait for Lu Feng to arrive and find a way to break them up through him.

Seeing that both mother and daughter had gone quiet, Lin Jiajia sensed the awkward atmosphere and didn’t say anything more.

An unknown amount of time passed before the doorbell rang.

All three of them looked towards the door in unison. They all knew it had to be Lu Feng.

Chen Fen immediately said to Lin Jiajia, "Jiajia, go get the door. No matter what, I have to make things clear with him today."

"Okay." Lin Jiajia nodded and got up to open the door.
