After Transmigrating into a Novel with My Boyfriend, He Turned Out to Be a Native Villain Chapter 192: Single Mother

After receiving all the information, Jiang Xi felt like the sky had fallen.

Can soone please explain… what the hell is going on???

Why did the instance difficulty go from C-rank to A-rank overnight?

She held her luggage, standing still, the light rain pattering against her face, but the cold on her skin was nothing compared to the chill in her heart.

Thinking about that sudden blaring alarm in her mind, she frowned slightly.

A high-level player snuck in? Who was it?

It wasn’t just Jiang Xi—actually, even the high-level audience who clicked into the livestream looked completely confused.

【…Wait, what the hell is this place?】

【Who’s this woman? I’ve never seen her before. Is she a new high-level player? Why don’t I rember her?】

【No, I just went back and checked the intro. It looks like only Rong Fan is a high-level player. Everyone else is… newbie players????】

【Huh? I swiped into this thinking it was an A-rank script. How the hell did newbie players sneak in?】

【What the hell, broken system, this is what you’re giving us esteed high-level viewers to watch?】

【Must be that Rong Fan entered a C-rank instance, then got detected by the Film Set System. Hahahaha these newbie players are screwed. This is gonna be good.】

【Hahahaha, haven’t seen such a spicy scene in an A-rank instance in a long ti. And Rong Fan hasn’t shown up in forever either. First ti back and he gifts us a huge surprise.】

【But A-rank scripts aren’t easy. I’m starting to worry about the fate of the newbie players.】

【Guessing character settings in an instance while avoiding vengeful ghosts and having to act in front of NPCs—if you ss it up, you're BBQ’d.】

【Interesting. This newbie player actually got a protagonist role. She might be the only one with a full identity background. That’s so serious luck. She’s the only one who doesn’t have to guess her persona.】

【Tch, just lucky. End of the day, still just a newbie. Haven’t seen noob fights in ages. This’ll be fun to watch.】

【Alright, everyone, cut the newbies so slack. High-level players are getting rarer these days. My favorites have all been leaving the scene one by one. Rong Fan finally ca back—I want to enjoy this while I can.】

【Peace Tower. From the intro, this place is full of… psychos. Little newbie, better protect yourself. (Gotta say, though, this one’s pretty cute hehe)】

Amid all the livestream chat, Jiang Xi finally arrived at the entrance of the building.

She put away her umbrella and pushed open the iron gate to enter. The lobby on the first floor was completely empty, looking like an unfinished construction site, with only a few concrete pillars.

Only a few kids were playing in an open area nearby, chanting so unintelligible nursery rhys.

As soon as they saw Jiang Xi enter, they imdiately stopped what they were doing, then suddenly looked up.

Those pitch-black pupils showed no emotion, just staring straight at her.

Being stared at by so many eyes made a cold sweat rise on Jiang Xi’s back. She clutched her suitcase tightly and swallowed hard, forcing a smile to greet them.

“Hi there.”

The kids didn’t respond, still staring at her.

Jiang Xi rembered she had so snacks in her bag. She took them out and walked over, smiling kindly, “Want so candy?”

At that, the group of kids sward over imdiately.

After grabbing the candy from her hands, they scattered in all directions like monkeys at a zoo—snatching food and disappearing in the blink of an eye.

Only two little girls remained squatting in place. They just quietly watched the others take the candy.

Even after their playmates ran off, they didn’t move.

One of the little girls glanced at the candy in Jiang Xi’s hand, her expression wavering slightly.

She hesitated for a long ti, then finally seed like she wanted to reach out for it.

But the slightly older girl beside her grabbed her wrist right away and said in a little grown-up voice, “Xiao Yun, Mommy said we can’t eat things from strangers. Mommy will buy it for us.”

Jiang Xi’s hand froze awkwardly in mid-air. She gave a sheepish laugh and put the candy away. “...Haha, right, your sister’s right. You shouldn’t take candy from strangers.”

Wow, really cautious.

Just then, a woman’s anxious voice suddenly called out from behind them: “Xiao Yun! Xiao Zhi!”

At the sound, both little girls instantly lit up with joy. “It’s Mommy!! Mommy!!”

They jumped to their feet and ran toward the voice behind Jiang Xi.

But when Jiang Xi heard that voice, her body tensed slightly.

That voice… why did it sound so familiar?

She turned her head and blinked in surprise when she saw the woman.

Mu Chengsi?

…

anwhile, Mu Chengsi had already squatted down to gently hug her two “daughters.”

She looked all smiles on the outside, but inside, she was already cursing Rong Fan to hell and back.

F**k you! D*mn you, Rong Fan!!

What happened to using an item?! How did it turn into an A-rank instance the mont she opened her eyes?!

Her mood was exactly the sa as Jiang Xi’s when she woke up.

The mont she heard she was in an A-rank instance, Mu Chengsi nearly blacked out.

And after receiving her mory…

She wanted to die even more.

Unlike Jiang Xi, who got identity and background tips, the system only gave her a few lines:

【Your identity is a single mother of two children. Due to financial pressure, you and your kids were forced to move into Peace Tower.】

【Your mission: Discover the full background of your identity and character setting. Uncover the secret of the building.】

【Please note: Since both your character and background are unknown, please act cautiously. Avoid breaking character. If NPCs sense anything strange, you’ll bear the consequences.】

【Due to a system error, a kind reminder is now being issued to all players as compensation.】

【Kind Reminder: Please try to fulfill all of your children’s requests. Do not let them wander outside alone. Please obey the rules of Peace Tower.】

The final reminder was even highlighted in bold red text. Clearly, it was super important.

But the mont she opened her eyes, there were no kids in the room.

Mu Chengsi’s heart nearly stopped from the scare.

She thought she was dood from the very beginning.

It wasn’t until she recalled that the two kids had gone out to play.

It was now lunchti, and during lunch breaks, the kids usually played downstairs. So she quickly took the elevator down.

Looking at the two girls, around four or five years old, Mu Chengsi didn’t dare say much.

Since she didn’t know her character setting, she just smiled and hugged them.

Anyway, protecting her “kids” couldn’t be wrong.

Noticing soone standing ahead, she thought it was another NPC.

Still smiling, she looked up—only to et Jiang Xi’s complex gaze.

Mu Chengsi’s smile froze imdiately.

Just like that, the two won stood in silence for several seconds.

“……”

“……”

Oddly enough… it felt like running into an old friend in a strange land.
