Chu Feng helped Chu Fu carefully sit down in the wheelchair.
Then he pushed her out the door.
But when they reached the stairs, Chu Fu had to stand up.
Because the building was part of the former military district converted into Linjiang City’s original e-sports branch campus, all the structures were old—nothing but stairs, no elevators.
It wasn’t unusual for a school to have no elevators.
Chu Fu had to go down step by step.
She could feel her legs trembling.
She was a college student now, and before the word "college student," there had to be a prefix: fragile.
She moved carefully, while Chu Feng supported her. Li Weizheng hurriedly played the part of a lackey, carrying the wheelchair.
“Chu Fu, feel free to come to class anytime. The school has now published the big map, and there are plenty of respawn points.
We’ve also set up some management courses to help you run the guild better.
You’re a key figure in the guild now, and you’ve gained some online fame recently.
I hope you can set a good example and show all players that this game isn’t controlled by capital.”
Chu Fu smiled.
“Not controlled by capital? Well, once I become capital myself, I’ll rewrite the rules!”
Chu Fu finally made it down the stairs and settled back into the wheelchair, letting out a long sigh.
So exhausting!
This fragile body.
Chu Feng pushed Chu Fu’s wheelchair. Though he wanted to get rid of Li Weizheng quickly, he was careful not to jolt Chu Fu, maintaining a steady, even pace.
Li Weizheng’s eyes went wide. He hadn’t expected Chu Fu to say things like that.
Ah, these young kids—they were simply unruly.
But what right did he have to discipline them?
If the game really did invade reality, people like Chu Fu would be the ones wielding true power in the future.
Rather than trying to control her, it was better to serve her.
With that thought, Li Weizheng suddenly felt enlightened.
“Miss Chu, you’re right. If you ever need anything, just come to me!”
“Speaking of which, you have the village defense battle tonight. None of the previous servers managed to hold on to their villages.
After the merger, it’s bound to be a tough fight!”
Chu Fu understood.
At the moment of the merger, at least three servers would merge with hers.
Among them, the three major studios combined had at least 3,000 members.
The Thorn Guild, on the other hand, only had 500.
But Chu Fu wasn’t worried.
Once the merger happened, she had only one thing to do.
And that was to kill.
…
Wangxi Manor.
Today was the day Chu Feng and the others moved.
Before the village defense battle, they settled everything. Now the entire Wangxi Manor was as tight as an iron fortress.
Chu Fu and Chu Feng lived in the largest Imperial Manor. To the left was Shen Chi, to the right was Xie Lin, behind them was Huang Jiaojiao, and further back was Li Zhenzhen’s villa.
Except for Huang Jiaojiao, everyone else’s families had moved in.
Shen Chi’s family, in particular, had filled two super-sized villas to the brim. Given Shen Chi’s current income, supporting a large extended family with food and expenses was more than enough.
The group had a small get-together offline and planned to go online again at 4 PM to prepare for the village defense battle.
At the dining table.
Chu Feng handed Chu Fu a gift box tied with a bow.
“Fufu, you were asleep for the past three years, so you missed your birthdays. This is your brother’s belated birthday gift for you. I hope you like it!”
Chu Fu looked at the gift box with surprise, wondering what was inside.
But she knew the charm of sweet words.
After all, a smooth tongue makes life easier.
“Thank you, Brother! I’ll love whatever you give me!” Chu Fu’s voice was sweet, laced with a breathy, fragile tone that made it even softer.
Chu Feng’s heart melted.
“Open it and see.”
Chu Fu carefully untied the bow and opened the box. Inside, dozens of little red booklets were neatly arranged.
On the cover, nine golden characters read:
[People’s Republic of China Property Rights Certificate]
“Why are there so many?”
Chu Fu was dumbfounded.
She remembered that the money she got from the guild token dividends had bought three properties in Wangxi Manor. Jiao Jiao had already told her about them and placed them in Chu Feng’s hands.
But these…
Chu Fu couldn’t even count them all at a glance.
Jiao Jiao finally couldn’t hold back.
“Plant Girl, you have no idea. Your brother went crazy and bought 200 million worth of villas, snapping up almost all of the remaining ones in Wangxi Manor. He put everything under your name. This place is yours to rule now!
Since you’re here, when I rent out the staff dorms later, I’ll just deal directly with you instead of looking for someone else!”
The three people listening nearby were completely dumbfounded.
Shen Chi: So rich!
Xie Lin: How is he this rich???
Li Zhenzhen: I’ve stumbled into a royal family~~~
Chu Fu’s eyes went wide too. Staring at Chu Feng in disbelief, she asked, “A-all of them are under my name?”
Chu Feng smiled. “Didn’t you want them? I bought them while they were still cheap. We’re already in contact with the last five homeowners. Soon, this will all be our territory!”
Chu Fu’s heart was a mess of emotions. Chu Feng had lived before, so he absolutely understood the value of property.
When the game invaded reality, everyone who transferred their game characters gained a game panel!
And to keep modern society from collapsing, the Origin System would tally all assets.
Money would turn into worthless paper.
But property would be counted as personal assets. Property in safe zones, especially, could be used to expel intruders with a single command, or even turned into shelters using system building blueprints.
This place had originally been the headquarters of the Universal Studio.
Now, it all belonged to her.
She had thought about farming another guild token in the game, splitting the money again, and buying more villas and land.
But she never expected Chu Feng to beat her to it.
And he had put all these priceless assets under her name.
Her heart felt like it was being warmed by a cozy hearth.
“Wuwuwu, Brother, you’re too good to me! But I already have three big villas. Why don’t you take the rest back, Brother? I don’t need them all!”
More importantly, she felt uneasy.
Because she wasn’t the real Chu Fu!
She couldn’t accept someone’s gift without guilt.
Maybe it was because, in her past life, she had lived as an underdog struggling at the bottom. Her sense of self-worth was too low.
Whenever someone showed her kindness, she feared they wanted something from her.
But Chu Feng gave to her without holding anything back.
This kind of familial love—something she had longed for in her previous life but could never reach—felt too heavy to bear.
“Silly little sister, do you not like the gift your brother gave you?
Why are you refusing it?
You’re my only family.
Whatever you want, I’ll find a way to bring it to you.
Don’t think of these as too valuable. They’re just the tip of the iceberg.
Stop crying. You’re turning into a little crying kitten.”
Chu Feng wiped away Chu Fu’s tears.
Jiao Jiao quickly cheered her up too. “Today’s a happy day! Why are you crying? Didn’t you see? After that video the other day from Lin Haowan, Universal Studio and the others have been completely exposed.
Now, the stock prices of both companies are plummeting. They’re running around like ants on a hot pan.
Hey! The official account of the Youlong Studio just released a statement!”
