The carriage swayed as it moved along, neither climbing any incline nor descending any slope. The road underneath was a primitive dirt one, full of bumps and jolts.

They were trapped within the carriage, unable to see the world outside or hear any sound from out there.

Yu Yaqing tried knocking on the inner walls of the carriage; each wooden plank was heavy and durable, proving challenging to break from within.

Unable to escape, they could only calmly wait.

Fortunately, the wait was not too long –

About a quarter of an hour later, the carriage came to a stop.

The heavy carriage doors swung open on either side. The weather outside was excellent, with bright sunlight and lush greenery.

Through the square-shaped carriage doors, they could see a long trail. The trail had two faint wheel tracks that extended deep into the forest.

The seven women, each dressed in a wedding gown, disembarked one after the other.

Their white gowns touched the ground and instantly gathered a layer of dirt, making them appear a bit more disheveled.

When the last one of them stepped off the carriage, the doors squeaked shut. The carriage continued its journey along the winding trail, disappearing from their sight.

And now, what lay in front of their eyes was an incredibly grand and luxurious manor!

Bright and colourful flower beds combined with golden cobblestones, rows of stunning rose arches stood tall. The red petals swayed gently with the dark green leaves, as if silently welcoming their arrival.

“It’s beautiful…” Cheng Xi couldn’t help but exclaim.

Yu Yaqing glanced at her with scorn, “Beautiful? If we were to die here, would you still think it’s beautiful?”

Hu Ya, who was Yu Yaqing’s subordinate, echoed her sentiment: “You’re still in the mood to enjoy the scenery after entering the game; I have no idea what you’re thinking about! I bet she won’t even know how she dies when she does!”

Cheng Xi’s face blushed at their ridicule; she was both embarrassed and aggrieved. Biting her lip, she defended herself, “I was just saying… is there a need for this? We should be supporting each other since we’re all in this game together…”

Tears welled up in her eyes while she sought an ally. She grabbed Zhao Lanfen’s arm, “Aunt Li, look at their attitude…”

“Enough, you!” retorted Hu Ya, annoyed, “How amusing, you relied on men outside and now that there are no men inside the game, you want to rely on us? Do you understand the concept of self-reliance? We have to depend on ourselves! Got it? We can only ever depend on ourselves!”

The words startled Zhao Lanfen, who reacted hastily, “Hold on! Isn’t something wrong? Aren’t you guys from the security team?! Shouldn’t you be ensuring our safety? …Talking about depending on ourselves, you’re just trying to wash your hands off any responsibility! That won’t do! My husband is the leader of the resources team! You must ensure my safe exit!”

Bai Youwei thought that Yu Yaqing, being averse to women, would retort Zhao Lanfen’s words. However, Yu Yaqing only frowned and replied:

“Rest assured, as far as my capabilities allow, I’ll do my best to ensure everyone’s safety.”

Although Hu Ya, the follower, was still fuming, she didn’t object and instead agreed with Yu Yaqing’s perspective.

Bai Youwei couldn’t help but smirk.

It seemed that power did indeed overrule everything, and even Yu Yaqing couldn’t escape from it…

She laughed silently as she moved ahead in her wheelchair, not paying any heed to their arguments.

Zhu Shu came forward and asked, “Do you need me to push it for you?”

“No need,” she replied, indifferent.

She didn’t enjoy being pushed around as it left her with no control over her own direction, except when it was Shen Mo. Perhaps it’s because she got lazy when Shen Mo was around.

Su Man patted Zhu Shu’s shoulder with a stern expression, “Follow behind me.”

Zhu Shu nodded to her.

The group followed the rose arches and in the distance, they saw a tall man with unusually out-of-proportion stature…
