Chapter 287: 287: The Final Reward

Yes, it’s not over yet.

When summer ended, autumn followed. Unbeknownst to them, the grass on the hill had all dried up, and the trees at the foot of the hill had turned yellow. The autumn breeze blew in through the doors and windows, causing those in damp clothes to shiver from the cold.

Thankfully, the house had been restored to its original state, with the walls and floors all dry, as well as the firewood in the fireplace.

Shen Mo reignited the fireplace.

Everyone scattered; some went to take hot showers, some sat by the fireplace to warm up, and others searched in corners to see if any beads had been overlooked.

The guest of autumn had already arrived.

Stationed at the front door.

However, everyone was too worn out, trapped in the summer for nearly eighteen hours; each person was physically and emotionally drained. All they wanted for the moment was to properly relax and rest, they didn’t care about the guest outside.

Two hours later — by the time everyone had bathed and changed, and assembled in the living room looking fresh and clean—𝑅êạd new chapt𝒆rs on no/v/e/l𝒃in(.)com

Professor Chang poured ten cups of hot tea and placed them on the coffee table in the living room.

Thin columns of steam rose from the tea.

The firewood in the fireplace crackled.

Ten individuals in exquisite doll costumes gathered in the living room. If you overlooked the serious or troubled expressions on their faces, it almost felt like a tea party.

“There are a total of 102 beads. I suggest we divide them evenly.” Yan Qingwen looked at Shen Mo and Bai Youwei. ” Logically speaking, as you two have passed the round, you should gain more. But we still have the third round of the autumn game to come. Once the guest begins to lose control, the injured, elderly, women, and children will all need more props for support.”

He paused, before continuing: “This is just my personal opinion. If you guys don’t agree, we can discuss other ways to divide them.”

Unlike fish meat, beads serve as reward props.

With fish meat, everyone could share a pot, but everyone could not share the limited quantity of beads.

As long as there is a fixed amount, there will be disparities.

Yan Qingwen was smart. He had ulterior motives; he wanted to get more beads for the injured Lu Ang and the delicate Zhu Shu, but he did not say it. Instead, he pointed out the predicaments of Professor Chang and Pan Xiaoxin.

If only those passing the game receive beads, how would the previous round be accounted for? The idea had been Pan Xiaoxin’s, and Zhu Shu was the one who sewed the bow, but neither of them received any extra fish meat as a result.

Furthermore, if Chang Weicai and Pan Xiaoxin didn’t get any beads, what would they do in the following round? If danger arises, Shen Mo would have to step in and save them. It would be better to give them more beads now, allowing them the ability to protect themselves and making things easier for Shen Mo.

Shen Mo also had his considerations.

Each round of the game was more challenging than the last, and they still didn’t know how to deal with the guest of the autumn round. For players right now, the most important thing was cooperation. If disagreements arose over the distribution of rewards, it would be undesirable.

After some thought, he said, “Then let’s each take 10 beads. The extra two will go  to Bai Youwei.”

Bai Youwei frowned, “Are my ideas only worth two beads?”

Yan Qingwen couldn’t help but laugh, “How many beads do you want? Just say a number and we can discuss it.”

Bai Youwei had actually given this some serious thought and replied, “Let’s just divide them as you guys suggested.”

Yan Qingwen was taken aback, “There’s no need to force yourself  If you’re not satisfied, we can split it 40-60 or 30-70. We’d be fine with that.”

Bai Youwei shook her head gently, “Actually, you guys were right. There’s still the third round, and it’s better to have more protection for the old, the women, and the children. This will allow those with good physical abilities to handle things without being restricted. Moreover, I trust that the game’s final reward will be fair and just. I don’t need to worry about this.”

Yan Qingwen furrowed his brows, “The final reward?”

“That’s correct.” Bai Youwei gave a faint smile, “As for these little beads, whether it’s a few more or a few less, I really don’t care. My aim is the final reward.”
