After getting off work, Yechen and Xiaolei, the newly recruited waitresses of the Six Sides Pavilion, plan to go to the Sanguan Plaza in the center of the city to buy a set of skin care products suitable for autumn and winter after changing into their daily clothes.

"The weather in the north is terrible!" Along the way, Xiaolei kept complaining, "It's windy in spring, sunny in summer, and dry in autumn and winter is unbearable." "Xiaolei went to college in the south, she was a stupid girl before going to college, she had no concept of skin care at all, all the habits about skin care were developed during college, and she suddenly returned to the north from the warm south, which was very uncomfortable.

"You can't stand this?" Yechen smiled and said, "Go northwest and walk again, you will know what dryness is, not to mention skin care in that place, dry air flows through the nasal cavity, and can even cause capillaries to rupture." ”

Xiao Lei had heard that many people would have nosebleeds when they arrived in the Northwest Region, and when she thought about the dry wind blowing on her face, she couldn't help but shiver, it was terrible!

"By the way, do you have any plans?" Yechen said, "I saw a very good cream on the Internet, Blue Ocean, with a miraculous active purifying extract, which can effectively repair inflammation at the bottom of the skin, has excellent repair and regeneration effects, can calm and soothe the skin, improve anti-inflammatory and anti-irritation, and have a strong ability for skin self-repair and self-renewal." Yechen memorized the advertising words he found on the Internet.

Xiaolei said enviously: "I also heard that it is produced by Cardiana, specially designed for skin care for people in dry areas, and there are also matching hydrating masks, skin rejuvenation creams, serums, and cleansing foaming lotions...... However, a complete set costs more than 5,000 yuan, which is not cheap! ”

Yechen persuaded: "It's really not cheap, but for us, it's just two months' salary, you eat and live at home, and you can buy less clothes at ordinary times." ”

"Don't you buy some autumn and winter fashion clothes?" Xiao Lei asked, "I see that Elegant Clothing has recently launched a camel-colored fashion trench coat, which is very beautiful!" ”

"I've heard about it too, and it's really beautiful." Yechen looked longing, but soon, she shook her head and said, "Xiaolei, although I don't want to admit it, we have to accept our fate. Fortunately, at least you are in a well-off family, and you have parents to take care of you, but I am alone in this city. For those of us girls from ordinary families, there must be a trade-off. ”

"How?" Xiaolei asked.

"Skincare and body maintenance are essential, and you have to be willing to spend money." Yechen was ruthless and said, "As for cosmetics, it's good to buy a set of medium-grade ones, anyway, we don't need to attend any events frequently, and we usually wear less makeup, which can save money and be better for the skin." Also, clothes or something are pretty much the same. ”

"Can we only wear cheap Taobao models?" Xiao Lei said unwillingly.

"It's not impossible!" Yechen said helplessly, "Think about the benefits, as long as you have white and tender skin and a good figure, you will look good in whatever you wear." Don't look at those bitchs with heavy makeup and beautiful clothes who are dazzling now, after the age of thirty, their skin will age rapidly, and then there will be no use of any cosmetics, even if they break uric acid, they can only get a zombie face. Don't forget, you've finished college, you've worked for a few more years, you're twenty-six years old, and you have to think about the future. ”

Yechen breathed a sigh of relief, as if he had been persuaded by himself, and continued: "Besides, I didn't say that I didn't buy a beautiful dress, just one or two sets of this every quarter, and when we encounter important occasions, we can also blind everyone's eyes after dressing up." ”

This stupid little girl was easily brainwashed by Yechen and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you, and buy a blue ocean skin care set too." ”

The two of them went to the mall until nine o'clock, and then took the subway home, and when Yechen returned to his residence, it was almost eleven o'clock.

Opening the door, Yechen saw her roommate, Lijuan was lying on the sofa, playing with her mobile phone, the blue screen shining on her face, looking even more gloomy and haggard.

Hearing the voice, Lijuan glanced up and said, "You came back so late?" ”

Because Lijuan is working hard in her career, she is doing foreign trade, which is very hard, and her working hours are unstable. In comparison, Yechen's schedule is very regular, because she has to get up early every day to buy vegetables, and she often goes to bed at nine o'clock.

Yechen said with a smile: "Today, I went to Sanguan Square with my colleagues and bought some things. ”

"What did you buy?" Lijuan asked casually.

Yechen raised his hand, showed the royal blue handbag, and said, "Cartiana's Blue Ocean Skincare Set, in autumn, the weather becomes very dry, and a special hydrating skincare set is needed." ”

Yechen walked towards the bedroom and said: "Lijuan, you also have to pay attention, hard work, irregular work and rest time, it hurts your skin a lot, I remember that you are a few years younger than me, look at your current skin, dull, pigmented, rough skin without a little luster, and heavy dark circles, you are not afraid that your boyfriend will not want you." ”

Lijuan's face suddenly became gloomy, but she still pretended to be open-minded and said, "Don't worry about him." ”

Yechen also smiled, closed the bedroom door, and whispered: "Of course don't worry about him, anyway, if you break up, you don't want anyone anymore." Yechen didn't close the bedroom door completely, and through the gap, this fluttering word spread to the living room, faintly floating into Lijuan's ears.

There was a muffled sound, which should be the sound of the phone smashing on the sofa. A smile appeared on Yechen's face and he closed the bedroom door.

With the soft click of the lock of the bedroom door, Lijuan, who was sitting on the sofa, her head fell off, her neck was unusually smooth, and a human head rolled towards her bedroom with a grunt, and finally leaned against the door, a pair of scarlet, resentful eyes stared at Yechen through the door.

Yechen threw the skin care products he bought on the table, turned on the computer, and checked the video taken by the pinhole camera today.

It's this guy again, it's okay if you're in a bad mood, everyone has a bad mood, but you shouldn't come to provoke me!

Soon, Yechen put Lijuan's matter aside and began to search the Internet for what she found yesterday.

Yechen had always thought that this was a "normal" world, and the only special thing was the noodle restaurant where she worked, where there was a young owner who was parasitized by the food system. But just yesterday, when she was browsing the forum, she noticed a post about the death of the grandmother who loved the landlord the most, and in the first seven, her soul came back, and she couldn't rest assured that she couldn't worry about the grandson who had been raised since childhood.

At first, Yechen didn't care, which city didn't have a little weird and weird, even in the most developed areas, the theory of gods and ghosts was very marketable. What she didn't expect was that the following reply was very special, and many people believed the landlord's statement.

These people's attitudes towards the theory of gods and ghosts attracted the attention of Yechen, and the city, or at least the people who replied to this post, believed in the theory of ghosts and gods, and no one thought that the landlord was a nonsense. It has little to do with a pitying mentality, more like – it's a fact.

Yechen continued to search for information on the Internet, mainly focusing on various forums and post bars. The conclusion was similar to what she had previously guessed.

There are ghosts in this world, Yechen leans back in his chair, his fingers lightly tapping on the table, and this has been widely acknowledged by a considerable number of people.

But...... Yechen opened several portals, and none of the news on them involved ghosts and gods.

Why is that?

Yechen deduced in his mind. The most direct reason for this phenomenon is that those in power are suppressing news in this area. Why? Like Ryan City at the beginning, afraid of social panic? No...... Wrong! According to the examples I found on forums and post bars, many people swear that they have seen ghosts, but they are all alive and interested in posting on the Internet, which seems to be ...... The ghost strength of this world is not very good!

This is also a possibility, if the power of ghosts in this world is very weak, then the authorities should suppress this kind of news and news, it should be to avoid the spread of ghosts and gods. Wise people can perceive that so-called ghosts are not so terrible, but ignorant and conformists may worship ghosts as gods and cause some trouble.

Thinking of this, Yechen suddenly sat up straight. There are ghosts in this world, so are there any gods? Inexplicably, she thought of the food system of the noodle shop owner. The system is very powerful, but it has almost no subjective agency, it is just a tool, or a program, and has no soul. So, who created this tool?

The world may be more dangerous than you think. However, before entering the mission world, Fei Fei once said that no matter what the background of this mission is, since it is a casual mission, as long as you don't cause trouble, you can always go smoothly and get through the mission peacefully.

However, since you know that this task world is not simple, will you still be willing to spend it so mediocre?

That's a real problem! Yechen looked at the time, it was past midnight, it was time to rest, she turned off the computer, lay on the bed, and fell into meditation.

Before dawn the next day, Yechen got up and started to get busy, but she was a little absent-minded, and her mind was still on yesterday's guesses. But soon, she encountered a "surprise".

"Rain and dust?" Coming out of the back kitchen and looking at the familiar figure sitting in the corner, Yechen said in surprise and joy, "Is it really you?" ”

Yan Yuchen raised his head and saw Yechen walking towards him with a bowl, he was also surprised in his heart, he didn't expect to meet her in this mission world at all.

"Are you...... Night? Yan Yuchen stood up, looked at Yechen carefully, and couldn't help but smile, as if it was really an old friend reunion, but he was complaining in his heart: This guy is really a trialist, why is he hiding so deeply? At the last moment of Ryan City's mission, Yan Yuchen didn't have a certain certainty to determine Yechen's identity, but now she knew that this guy, like herself, was also a tester in the seventh space.

"yes, that's me." Yechen put the small hand-rolled noodles on the table, sat down opposite her, and said, "We haven't seen each other for four or five years, and since we graduated from college, we have gone our separate ways and never seen each other again." ”

Yan Yuchen was quite cooperative, and said with emotion: "Yes, now that I think back, college life is really colorful, free, and everything has changed when I step into society." ”

Yechen rolled his eyes lightly and said, "That's you, I'm alone, I need to work on my own to make money for tuition and miscellaneous expenses, and the four years of college are very hard." ”

"You girl is still like this, very arrogant." Yan Yuchen smiled, didn't care about Yechen's tone, and asked, "What have you been doing lately?" ”

Yechen said: "You have also seen, I work in this noodle restaurant, and I have been mixed from a waiter to a kitchen helper, and in a few years you will be able to hear the reputation of Yechen's chef." ”

"When did you like cooking?" Yan Yuchen said with some surprise.

"Because I've found the essence of good food." Yechen said unashamedly, "What about you, what kind of work are you doing now?" ”

Yan Yuchen pulled out a business card from his handbag and placed it on the table.

"Rain and Dust Entertainment Company, President." Yechen read the words on the business card softly, glanced at Yan Yuchen, and said, "You opened a company?" ”

Yan Yuchen nodded slightly and said, "Yes, an entertainment company, mainly engaged in the film industry. ”

Yechen put down his business card and said, "You're much better than me." ”

"It's just luck." Yan Yuchen said, "Are you interested in participating?" ”

"You're short of people there?" Yechen asked.

"Small company, just getting started." Yan Yuchen said honestly, "There is a lack of capable people. ”

In Ryan City, to be the master of thirteen large Awoken organizations, Yechen is definitely a capable person. Yanyuchen entered this mission world a few months earlier than Yechen, but it has only been half a year now, and her Yuchen entertainment is just a shelf, just starting, and she really needs someone who has the ability to help.

"You know, my personality isn't good for business." Yechen said.

"I know, you're a little cold." "But your control and execution are absolutely top-notch, I'm running a film right now, and I lack a producer, so this position is definitely for you." ”

"This ......," Yechen said with a little hesitation, "Let's talk in another place." ”

"Okay, no problem." Yan Yuchen said happily, "You want me to finish this bowl of noodles." ”

Yechen chuckled lightly and said, "You're the owner of an entertainment company, are you living so hard?" ”

"It's a little bit to be able to save." Yan Yuchen said while eating noodles, "You don't know how difficult it is for a newcomer to attract investment in the entertainment industry." In fact, this is one thing, Yan Yuchen is not specifically looking for this kind of small noodle restaurant to eat, she just came here to do some errands, and dragged it until noon, so she casually found a place to solve lunch.

After saying hello to the owner of the noodle shop and taking a half-day off, Yechen and Yanyuchen found a café and sat down in a secluded corner.

"Drink something?" Yan Yuchen asked.

"Latte." Yechen said casually that she doesn't like coffee very much, of course, it's not annoying, it's just an ordinary drink.

"Okay." Yan Yuchen answered, went to the counter and ordered a latte, a cup of Italian.

PS: This is an alternate world, in the setting, it has a perfect film industry system similar to Hollywood, a producer-centric system, a relatively mature classification system, a more developed media system, etc.
