”Why? Boss!” Ruan Xiqian shouted excitedly, “You obviously have a lot of ideas for setting up the dungeon levels!”

　　”Don’t you want to materialize the imagination in your mind and turn it into reality?”

　　Tan Li said coldly, “I don’t want to.”

　　”Then, then…” Ruan Xiqian tried to try harder, “Didn’t you say before that you had some character ideas? Does this still count?”

　　Tan Li was ruthless, “It doesn’t count. I changed my mind.”

　　A thunder bolt fell on Xiao Ruan.

　　”Why?” Ruan Xiqian was puzzled.

　　In the first few days after this project was decided, Tan Li seemed to have a lot of ideas. Ruan Xiqian even suspected that Tan Li herself liked to play this type of horror game, so she made such a large investment.

　　But after a few days, the woman’s heart changed like the rain in June.

　　Tan Li met her confused look and said, “Rich women are fickle. You have to learn to get used to it.”

　　She didn’t explain anything.

　　In fact, at the very beginning, when she heard Ruan Xiqian’s idea for the game, she immediately put herself into it.

　　It wasn’t intentional, just…

　　Simply certain memories were evoked, involuntarily and without control.

　　That’s why she offered the investment condition of either all are destroyed or all survive.

　　It seemed that this would be able to fill the big hole in my heart that was blowing cold air.

　　She even wanted to let those people enter this game world.

　　With the dress-up game that Letong is currently playing as a trial example, Tan Li feels that she can still trust the modeling restoration degree of this game company.

　　Then, the solution to achieve both goals that they failed to find back then might be found here, and they might have a completely different ending.

　　Everyone is alive.

　　Everyone can walk out of the infinite flow world.

　　Everyone still has the opportunity to realize the dreams they talked about back then.

　　Everyone……

　　Tan Li suddenly woke up from her dream.

　　Everything in the dream was so beautiful, there was even a smile on her lips.

　　But no matter how beautiful the dream is, it is just a dream that will be shattered when you wake up.

　　There are no ifs in this world.

　　And what she was facing was just a game.

　　No matter how realistic it is, it’s just a game.

　　and……

　　Obviously everyone has been liberated, but she can’t let everyone be imprisoned again in that nightmare that seems like it will never end just for her own sake.

　　That would be too selfish.

　　Her friends, her “family”, her unique and irreplaceable teammates, do not need to become a shadow and be trapped in her nightmare again.

　　Besides, even if they are just a shadow, they should live a happy and relaxed life.

　　There are only flowers and warm sunshine, no more blood and suffering.

　　Just like Letong did in the dress-up game, she followed her dream back then and changed into different beautiful clothes every day.

　　Tan Li’s heart was still in the memories, but her face was calm and composed.

　　She said to Ruan Xiqian, “This is the game you want to play, not me.”

　　”I’m an investor and a big boss, and I’m only responsible for transferring money.” Tan Li said disdainfully, “I’m not responsible for the work of my employees.”

　　Ruan Xiqian: …

　　It’s well-founded and cannot be refuted.

　　”Ah…” Ruan Xiqian lamented, “What a pity. When I talked to you a few times before, I thought we could make an awesome horror game together.”

　　Facing her overflowing regret, Tan Li just said calmly, “What I hate most in this world is infinite flow and horror games.”

　　”So, don’t expect me to play this game with you.”

　　Ruan Xiqian: ???

　　How can you be so creative even if you hate it? How can you be so generous even if you hate it? How can you be so generous even if you hate it?

　　”…I bow down to the rich woman.” Ruan Xiqian couldn’t help but bow to Tan Li.

　　Tan Li: …That shouldn’t be the case.

　　Tan Li couldn’t help but laugh because of Ruan Xiqian’s unconventional behavior.

　　”Okay, just work hard,” Tan Li said firmly, “This is your game, this is the world you want to create. I just hope you can give your character a glimmer of hope.”

　　Don’t be like that perverted Lord God System.

　　Tan Li left in a leisurely manner, leaving Ruan Xiqian thoughtful.

　　**

　　Because of this investment, most of the money in Tan Li’s account was deducted in an instant.

　　Haa–

　　Tan Li lay on the recliner at home and subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief. She didn’t know why, but the money in her account seemed to be increasing recently, as if she could never spend it all.

　　It’s really distressing.

　　Just at this moment, Tan Xinman ran upstairs and downstairs in a hurry. When Tan Li thought she was about to rush out of the room, Tan Xinman’s pace suddenly slowed down.

　　She seemed to hesitate for a moment, then turned and walked gently towards the garden.

　　”What do you want to talk to me about?” Tan Li didn’t even reply.

　　Tan Xinman had deliberately slowed down her footsteps, but when she saw Tan Li noticed her arrival, she immediately returned to normal.

　　”It’s okay. I heard that you’ve been lying down these few days. I thought you were not feeling well, so I came to see you.” Ever since Tan Li said that to her last time, Tan Xinman no longer avoids her eyes when she speaks.

　　Tan Li answered irrelevantly, “Are you busy?”

　　”Ah? Ah…” Tan Xinman’s reaction speed was pretty good, “A little bit.”

　　”The company has been following up on several major projects recently. I just came back to get some documents because I left them at home.”

　　Tan Li saw a faint blue tint under her eyes, “Are you working so hard?”

　　Tan Xinman smiled calmly, “Not bad.”

　　”Didn’t you say that if I feel sorry for you, I will work hard and let you get more dividends.”

　　…

　　A question mark slowly appeared on Tan Li’s head.

　　Tan Xinman didn’t notice and continued, “Don’t worry, in addition to the dozen or so projects I’m currently working on, there are also some potential projects that are already under development.”

　　”Tan Li,” Tan Xinman said solemnly, “As long as I am here, you will never be short of money.”

　　Tan Li: …

　　She felt that what Tan Xinman said did not seem to mean that she would make money for her for the rest of her life, but rather that she would be in danger of dying from overwork at her workstation.

　　”Don’t work too hard.” Tan Li felt that she was a particularly conscientious capitalist. “I have enough money now.”

　　”No!” Tan Xinman’s eyes were firm. “I heard that your grandparents bought you some cars. If I didn’t make enough money, I wouldn’t have asked your grandparents to buy you a car.”

　　Her expression revealed a kind of regret that she had not done enough.

　　After saying that, Tan Xinman glanced at the file bag in her hand and took a deep breath, “I will work hard!”

　　Then, she trotted away, so fast that she didn’t even notice Tan Li’s hand trying to stop her.

　　Tan Li: …You don’t have to work so hard.

　　No, she asked Tan Xinman to be herself, and the answer Tan Xinman came up with was to be a workaholic who didn’t care about her life?

　　She said that the money coming in from dividends seems to be getting more and more, and more and more. Isn’t this person working too hard?!

　　Tan Li inexplicably felt a sense of tension, as if someone was chasing her to spend money.

　　…

　　It’s fine that she can spend money as she pleases because she is chased by her retirement goal, but now she has to be forced to spend money by Tan Xinman?

　　no!

　　Tan Li didn’t even think about it and took out her cell phone.

　　“Beep, beep, beep—”

　　”explain.”

　　Tan Li would not be affected by the indifference on the other end of the phone, “When will Ying Xu come back?”

　　”…” Ying Heng’s silence was like a question mark, “When did you start caring about Xiao Xu?”

　　”Don’t you always dislike Xiaoxu’s silly look?”

　　Tan Li now thinks it’s good to have a little fool, “Let him come back quickly, Tan Xinman has gone crazy.”

　　”Oh?” Ying Heng showed some interest, “Are you sure you are not crazy, so you think everyone else is crazy?”

　　Tan Li: “…You are relying on the fact that I can’t reach you by phone, right?”

　　”Heh.” Ying Heng’s chuckle seemed to be filled with unconcealed joy, “How can you talk like that? You are such a kind person, why would you hit me?”

　　Tan Li: She is now very sure that Ying Heng is in need of education.

　　Although they were separated by a phone call, Ying Heng seemed to see Tan Li’s speechless expression, and the voice coming out of the microphone was much lighter, “Seriously, what happened to Tan Xinman?”

　　Tan Li: …She was always serious. It was obviously Ying Heng who was joking.

　　”She’s like a workaholic now, and she’s going crazy trying to earn more dividends for me,” Tan Li thought to herself, but she was such a generous person that she would naturally not argue with a young man like Ying Heng.

　　”Isn’t that a good thing?” Ying Heng was puzzled. “She works hard for you to earn money. What else are you dissatisfied with?”

　　Tan Li: “She makes too much money.”

　　”Huh?” Ying Heng didn’t understand.

　　”…Forget it, you won’t understand.” Tan Li gave up trying to explain it to Ying Heng and just said, “Anyway, you better get Ying Xu back as soon as possible.”

　　”With more people messing around, Tan Xinman won’t be able to focus on making money.”

　　Ying Heng’s originally cheerful tone suddenly became very stiff, “I don’t understand, but Xiaoxu is accompanying Fu Yunyun for treatment and won’t be back for one or two months.”

　　Tan Li was not satisfied with this answer. “Did the Ying family not give enough money, so the treatment is so slow? I will sponsor you!”

　　Ying Heng realized what was going on, “Do you have too much money and don’t know how to spend it?”

　　Tan Li: “…”

　　Her silence was the best evidence for Ying Heng’s guess.

　　There was a faint laugh coming from the receiver, which was a bit irritating to the ears over the radio waves.

　　Tan Li turned one ear to listen to the phone call, “What a joke.”

　　”Hahahahahahahahaha.” It would have been better if she didn’t say this. After she said this, Ying Heng’s laughter became unrestrained.

　　On the other side, Tan Li had a blank expression on her face. She wanted to see how long Ying Heng could laugh.

　　”Haha…” Ying Heng probably finally realized that he was too disrespectful to Tan Li, and finally stopped laughing a little, but not completely, “Pfft… How about I find you a few projects to invest in?”

　　Tan Li thought it was boring. “If the investment is successful, will there be a lot of money back?”

　　”I’m not interested in making money, I just want to spend money, the kind that once spent, gone, used up, will never come back.”

　　”Do you understand?”

　　Although Ying Heng didn’t understand, it didn’t stop him from offering suggestions, “How about I find a few auctions for you to try?”

　　”Or maybe buy some high-end jewelry, cars, yachts, airplanes, etc?”

　　His opinions are all good, but…

　　Tan Li: “Aren’t there any new ideas? Besides, these don’t cost too much.”

　　”Maybe…” Ying Heng stopped talking halfway.

　　Tan Li couldn’t help but ask curiously, “Maybe what?”

　　”Nothing.” The voice on the other end of the receiver was very calm, and one could not detect the inner fluctuations of the speaker. “I can’t think of it either.”

　　Even Ying Heng’s clever little head couldn’t figure it out, so Tan Li sighed in disappointment.

　　I thought that as a rich girl, this retirement goal would be the easiest to achieve, but I didn’t expect…

　　Spending money is really a technical job.

　　If she could, she really wanted to beat up the person who proposed this retirement goal.

　　Tan Li said to Ying Heng, “Anyway, ask Ying Xu to come back quickly and let him distract Tan Xinman.”

　　Since she couldn’t think of any way to spend the money, Tan Li had to find a roundabout way to save the situation. If she could stop Tan Xinman from making more money for her from the source, she wouldn’t have to worry so much.

　　Like before, all I have to do is buy some clothes and jewelry and give out red envelopes to people, and I can achieve my retirement goal of spending money as I please. How easy it is.

　　”I know.” Ying Heng agreed, “But don’t hold your hopes too high. Not to mention the recovery period after treatment, even if there isn’t, Fu Yunyun will definitely find a way to keep Xiaoxu for a while to brainwash him.”

　　Tan Li: “…I understand.”

　　If I had known this, I would not have kept it a secret from Ying Heng.

　　A few days later, before Ying Xu came back, Tan Li received an unexpected letter.
