Chapter 776 Cinderella x Socially Horrible Devil (1)
Chapter 776 Cinderella x Socially Horrible Devil (1)
It was a dark, damp, dusty attic with dim lighting and the air was filled with a stale and decayed smell.
In this corner, a young and beautiful girl was lying helplessly on the cold, hard ground, tears falling like beads from a broken string, soaking her clothes.
Her eyes were filled with sadness and despair, as if the whole world had collapsed.
Standing at the door was a beautiful woman with a pretty face but an unusually mean look. She was wearing an expensive dress and exuded an arrogant temperament.
Her eyes were cold and ruthless, making people shudder.
"Your dear father is dead. From today on, you are our maid. You will live in this simple attic and have to complete all the housework every day to have a meal. Otherwise, you will go hungry!"
The beautiful woman raised her chin and spoke in a sharp and piercing voice.
Her tone was full of contempt and disdain, without a trace of compassion.
After the beautiful woman said this, she looked at the girl lying on the ground with disgust, then turned around mercilessly and left the attic, leaving the girl sobbing alone in the dark.
The girl was very sad. Her father had passed away, and her stepmother and two sisters immediately turned against her and became terrible.
She sobbed softly, mumbling "Mom and Dad".
……
In the system space, Yu Yan snapped the book shut, looked expressionlessly at the person sitting opposite her, and said in a voice with a hint of disbelief: "So, you mean, the next mission world is Cinderella?"
"Uh... not only that, there's another one!"
Tuanzi touched his nose awkwardly, then took out a book from behind and handed it to Yu Yan, saying carefully: "This is "One Thousand and One Nights". There is a story about a fisherman and a devil in it, but this is a fan fiction. The author merged the two stories together, so we are going to the two merged mission worlds."
Yu Yan took the book, flipped through a few pages, and frowned even more tightly: "What kind of setting is this? How can Cinderella, the fisherman, and the devil be put together?"
Tuanzi shrugged helplessly: "I don't know either, but this is how the mission world is. There's nothing I can do about it. And this author is quite creative. He combined two completely different stories together. It might be very interesting."
Yu Yan: "..."
Who wrote this?
Tuanzi shrank his neck and continued, "The plot of this mission world is completely worthless. All we know is that the villain is a devil."
Yu Yan: "... Even if you don't tell me, I know the villain is a devil."
Tuanzi chuckled and immediately hit the snake with a stick, saying in a flattering way, "But the side quest is relatively simple. Cinderella's wish is not to marry the prince."
At the end of the fairy tale, the prince and princess live happily ever after.
But it doesn’t say what a happy life is like.
Take the story of "Cinderella" for example. In fact, after she married the prince, she did live a happy and sweet life.
But after that, there were endless quarrels.
Yu Yan: "It's really simple. Let's go! To the mission world."
Tuanzi: "Okay, I'll teleport to the mission world right away."

In the spacious and bright restaurant, there is a long dining table filled with all kinds of exquisite food. However, all this cannot conceal the tense atmosphere on the table.
Cinderella's stepmother sat gracefully in a chair, eating breakfast with an indifferent expression, as if everything around her had nothing to do with her.
Cinderella's two stepsisters surrounded her on both sides, with undisguised malice flashing in their eyes. They wore hypocritical smiles on their lips and cast contemptuous glances at Cinderella from time to time.
The eldest sister, Andy, stared at Cinderella fiercely and said with gritted teeth, "What is the use of such a useless glutton in the hall? Whoever wants to eat bread must earn it himself. I have to wash the clothes I changed this morning. Go and wash the clothes for me."
The second sister Dixi immediately agreed, "And the floor in my room hasn't been mopped yet! I accidentally spilled milk last night, you have to clean it up for me."
After saying this, she looked at Cinderella smugly, as if appreciating her painful expression and waiting for her to beg for mercy.
Yu Yan crossed her arms and looked at the two people opposite her expressionlessly, with cold eyes and a cold tone: "You want me to wash clothes and mop the floor? Are you qualified?"
Hearing this, the two arrogant people were stunned.
"What did you say? Are you crazy?"
Anti's eyes widened in disbelief, and his anger was instantly ignited.
She stared at Yu Yan fiercely, gritting her teeth and said, "How dare you talk to me like that, you idiot? Do you believe me, I'll let mom kick you out?"
Seeing this, Dixi, who was standing by, quickly fanned the flames and said, "Sister, Cinderella is crazy. Look at her eyes. She looks like she wants to hit us!"
"She dares?"
Andy snorted coldly, turned his head and looked at the woman who was eating breakfast, and shouted: "Mom, look at this Cinderella, she dared not listen to me, you should teach her a lesson quickly."
Her voice was sharp and piercing, like a sword cutting through the air, making people feel very uncomfortable.
The stepmother sitting at the dining table slowly raised her head, her gaze fell on Yu Yan, and a hint of disgust flashed in her eyes.
She put down the knife and fork in her hand and sneered, "Cinderella, do you think you have grown wings and can ignore us? Don't forget, your father is dead, and now you are just living under someone else's roof. If we hadn't taken you in, you would have starved to death on the street. So, you'd better be obedient, otherwise you will suffer."
The stepmother's tone was full of obvious threats and warnings, as if Yu Yan was a lamb to be slaughtered.
Yu Yan's eyes became even colder, "Really? I want to see how you make me feel uncomfortable?"
After saying that, she strode to the dining table without hesitation, stretched out a hand, and pulled the tablecloth off the table.
As the tablecloth was torn off, the neatly arranged tableware and food all lost their support and fell to the ground, making a crackling sound.
In an instant, the restaurant became a mess.
The cup of milk in front of her stepmother was placed right in front of her, so it inevitably fell on her. The splashing milk wet her beautiful skirt, and even her body was covered with milk.
“Ahhhhh… Cinderella, how dare you do this? It seems that if I don’t teach you a lesson, you won’t be afraid anymore.”
The stepmother's face was full of rage and she screamed.
As she spoke, she immediately stood up, raised her hand high, and prepared to slap Yu Yan hard on the face.
However, just as she was about to approach Yu Yan, she found her wrist suddenly grabbed by a strong hand.
Immediately afterwards, there was a crisp "crack" sound, and the stepmother's hand was broken.
