Chapter 88: It’s None of Your Business (1)
Zhao Youlin was so pissed off by Mu Tingfeng’s obnoxious behavior that she could not sleep well throughout the entire night. When she woke up the next day, two striking black eye rings appeared beneath her eyes. They were so obvious that it was hard to cover them up.
Joy woke up and noticed his mother’s tiredness. He immediately turned into an endearing cute baby by lunging into Zhao Youlin’s arms and kissing her multiple times until his saliva was all over Zhao Youlin’s face.
“You little brat, how could you kiss me when you haven’t even brushed your teeth.” Zhao Youlin hugged Joy and patted him. She complained helplessly.
Joy was no longer scared of Zhao Youlin. He grinned and wrapped his arms around her neck and said, “Mommy, you look tired.”
“Yes, I had a nightmare last night so I didn’t sleep well,” Zhao Youlin said as she carried Joy and entered the washroom to wash him up.
Joy tilted his head curiously and looked at Zhao Youlin, he asked, “Mommy, what nightmare did you have?”
Zhao Youlin smiled. She looked away and said condescendingly, “I dreamt of a bad guy kidnapping you, Joy.”
Children got scared easily. The moment Zhao Youlin said that, he was immediately frightened and tightened his arms around Zhao Youlin’s neck, not willing to loosen his grip and said, “I don’t want to be kidnapped by a bad guy.”
Zhao Youlin kissed her son with amusement. She said, “So, you have to stay at home obediently and play with Sparta. Don’t simply run around and wait for me to come back, okay?”
“Mommy, are you going out again?” As soon as Joy heard Zhao Youlin’s words, he raised his head from Zhao Youlin’s shoulder and asked in surprise.

“Yes, I have to go out again today. I’ll buy some cupcakes for you when I come back, okay?”
“Mhm mhm…” Joy could not resist the temptation of good food and nodded his head.
“But, you have to stay at home and play with Sparta. Don’t simply run around, don’t simply touch the things and most importantly, don’t simply let any stranger enter the house. Otherwise, you’ll be kidnapped by the bad guys and I won’t be able to see you again when I return home.”
Joy panicked. He hurriedly nodded and said, “I’ll be a good boy and stay at home and wait for your return, Mommy. Mommy, you have to buy cupcakes for me and come back early.”
“You’re a little glutton!” When Zhao Youlin knew that Joy cared about cupcakes the most, she did not know if she should laugh or cry.
After teasing her son and helping him wash up. She changed his clothes and took him out for breakfast. When all that was done, Zhao Youlin went out reluctantly.
Zhao Youlin returned to the familiar place, Direct Sun Cafe. She felt some inexplicable sense of discomfort.
Half a month ago, she was here and had put Mu Tingfeng to shame as well as divorced him in public.
A month later, she was at the same cafe and waiting for him instead. One had to admit that the old saying was true to its words, there was payback for every action taken.
Zhao Youlin looked up at the clock inside the cafe. Her heart clenched when she saw the needle of the clock pointing to eight. ‘Is he going to stand me up just like what I did to him last time?’
Zhao Youlin’s doubt was cleared when the minute hand of the clock passed by every minute from the original position at twelve to six and finally returned to twelve. At the same time, the hour hand slowly pointed from eight to nine.

Zhao Youlin stared wide-eyed as the time gradually passed by. The cafe was getting crowded from only a few customers at the beginning to tens and dozens of them.
The coffee on the table had long turned cold. Zhao Youlin had taken great pains to hold back her anger but now, the raging fire deep down her heart was slowly on the rise.
It had been an hour. That rascal actually stood her up for an hour just like what she had done to him before.

March 16, 2021 - Hiatus note: I will come back to this story! I'm really struggling with it, though. It's been a number of years and I kind of forgot what the original outline was. I still remember the main path, but not any of the details, because I stupidly didn't write an outline. Progress is being made. I'd like a very decent sized buffer before I start posting again. Don't want to get hopes up only to immediately disappoint! ----- Amy Barnes, an aspiring chemical researcher, finds herself dying from cancer. One of her most desperate prayers is answered in a way that she'd never dreamed possible, and she finds herself living a new life as a dungeon. Warning: Violence, morbidity Cover: Taken from here, courtesy of www.pexels.com by photographer @tookapic. Author's Note: I've read some dungeon core stories on here, and they've tickled my fancy. I've thought up a whole story, start to finish, and thought it'd be a blast to put it into words. Other than the violent and morbid aspects, this story is suitable for children. Aside from the vocabulary, that is. I will avoid the temptation to have any cursing, sexuality, or gore. Excessive gore, I suppose - it is a dungeon story, after all. I’ll do a little research from time to time, but this story will not have a great deal of rigor. I’ve made Amy’s knowledge comparable to my own for that reason. There’s a few things she knows more about than I do, and a few things that she knows less about. Unlike me, she doesn’t have access to Google - it’s a non issue for her to be more knowledgeable than me, on occasion :P This story does not use the same magic system that I’ve used in either Sorcery in Boston or A Summoner’s Confession. This one is mostly intention based, and designed to be easier access for people who are more used to the idea of, “It’s magic, therefore it works” kind of thinking. Do note that Amy is, in most senses of the term, overpowered. This goes along with the usual dungeon core stories. She’s not more powerful than other dungeons per se, but she does have knowledge and intelligence that puts them to shame. I thought about doing this in a LitRPG style, but systems take balance, and I wanted this to be pure fun to write.This story was inspired from a few sources. Despite the title, it wasn’t really inspired by Of Mice and Men, though some of the themes match. Rather, I’ve taken inspiration from a few dungeon core novels on Royal Road Legends for the main idea. Many conventions of dungeon core stories have been perverted from the genre, however. I’ve taken my usual science-loving self to town to play around with the powers, and I can only hope you have half as much fun reading this as I have had writing it.
