It was only one extra gift. The system administrator had no reason to refuse.
“Thank you 004.” The administrator said. “The two rewards have arrived. Please click to receive the goods. After you officially enter the game, you can check your rewards through the player interface. You have a 20 minute break to interact with fans in the live broadcasting room. After the break, you will enter the next game!”
You Xi took a sip of tea and opened the player interface. In the mission hall, he found that the interface was different from the one inside the game, with an additional ‘studio’ function.
You Xi clicked in and saw that he had over 900,000 fans.
Since the game had ended, the live broadcast room had a blank screen. Fans couldn’t see the streamer; they could only chat in the live broadcast room. You Xi glanced around and saw that the fan ‘Jiejie Hai Keyi Zai Huo Wubai Nian’ had left a link in the chat with the title — < <mixed>></mixed>
With his own vanity at play, You Xi couldn’t resist clicking it.
It was a short video collection, only 5 minutes. At the beginning, the morning light was faint and the background music was soothing. You Xi lay in the coffin, then as he awoke from his sleep, his opening eyes were as bright as stars. There seemed to be a thousand words in his eyes. Full of melancholy, the usual smile on the corners of his lips faded and he let out a slight sigh.
Colorful barrages floated across the screen. You Xi saw many people commenting —
“Zai Zai don’t cry, mama hugs you!” 1
“Laugh in eternal spring, drown in tears!”
“This is my husband, don’t snatch him!”
“No, it’s my wife. Why is my wife crying? Who did it?!”
“I did it.”
“I want to do it.”
……
The barrage gradually became strange, so You Xi automatically ignored it. He recalled that scene carefully. Why did he sigh in the coffin?
After a few seconds of recollection, You Xi finally remembered that he was unhappy that day because he was afraid he would die a bachelor.
You Xi: “……”
Although he successfully left alive, important life matters really can’t be delayed. Until he meets the right one, he should look everywhere.
The background music gradually became upbeat, and the camera switched to the second frame. You Xi was bathing.
An exquisite profile, glowing white skin, a drop of water dripping from the tip of his hair, and the corners of his eyes were slightly red. You Xi had a beauty that made people want to bully him.
The barrage happily flashed ‘yo~~~’ across the screen. You Xi’s face was expressionless. He clicked the cross on the video and coldly exited the playback interface.
He didn’t want to see that kind of shameless picture!
It was all forced for survival!
After that game, You Xi had made a lot of money. Unfortunately, he spent it all on Jiang Jiang. Looking at the poor 7-8 thousand game coins in his account, You Xi strolled sadly around the mall.
The things sold in the mall were mediocre. There were only some runes and healing medicines. You Xi looked around and saw that one healing pill was sold for 2000, so he bought 3 pills and spent almost all of his money.
According to the system administrator, every inch of land sold in the space pocket was fifty thousand yuan.
Yo Xi had bargained for a long time before the system administrator gave him 10 square feet, and he thought it was a loss of money. Now that he thought about it, he was a powerful customer who had placed an order of 10 million. Was a gift worth 500,000 expensive?
You Xi: “Administrator, come. Let’s talk about life.”
Friendship was two hearts treating each other with sincerity, not one heart beating another.
Have you read Mr. Lu Xun? 2 I strongly recommend that you go back to school and relearn it!
You Xi took a bite of cookie to calm himself. His 20 minute break was over and he entered the next game – Screaming Love.
Entering a classroom, You Xi lowered his head and saw that he was wearing a high school student uniform.
No one else was in the classroom. You Xi was the first player to enter the instance.
Just as he was about to send the system administrator back to the furnace to be rebuilt, You Xi was sent to campus by himself. He propped his chin with his left hand and gazed out the window. The spring breeze was blowing outside and the fragrance of flowers and birds painted a beautiful picture.
As if thinking of something, You Xi quietly rose from his seat.
He hid in an uninhabited toilet stall, and checked the tricky gift package he got from the Midnight Villa —
— Bleeding Dagger x1 (Reusable. When the dagger pierces someone’s body, blood will flow out, but the person will not actually be injured.)
— Irony Agent x1 (The person sprayed with the irony agent will say the opposite of what they really think.)
— Phantom Cloak x1 (You can disguise yourself as a phantom after you put it on. Single-use item.)
–Tuo Baba x100 (100 Tuo Baba. 3 These are Boss Jiang Jiang’s childhood favorite.)
You Xi looked at the items. Most of them were quite useful, but what did the 100 oddly-painted Tuo baba do?
“Jiang Jiang?” You Xi said to the space pocket. “Come out, I promise I won’t hit you.”
Jiang Jiang hid in the space pocket and patted his head. “I only have 10 minutes to play per game. Are you sure you want to call me out now?”
In order to balance the power between players and enhance the playability, the game placed a time limit on Jiang Jiang’s foreign aid. During the time he wasn’t in use, Jiang Jiang could network in the game mission hall, find some work, get a part-time job, and support his family.
At present, Jiang Jiang was still a freeloader.
You Xi was helpless. Of course he couldn’t spend 10 million to buy Jiang Jiang just to play around.
Abandoning his idea to repair Jiang Jiang, You Xi walked slowly back to the classroom.
But he didn’t realize what kind of exuberant scene he missed just a few minutes after he left the classroom.
All the other players assigned to this round of the game were wearing school uniforms. Only one person appeared in the classroom prominently wearing an expensive and fashionable suit.
Before he appeared on scene, there was a sudden shower of flowers in the classroom, and ten men dressed as hotel waiters appeared out of thin air. They laid down a red carpet for the third (second) high school calss, and a row of musicians stood to the right of the carpet, playing ritualistic music, as if celebrating the arrival of a king.
It was with such an atmosphere filled with flowers and praise that Qin Yuandai arrive to the instance ‘Screaming Love.’
Putting on his sunglasses, he walked into the classroom.
There was a scream in the classroom–
“Aaaahhhh! It’s really 003!”
“What kind of luck is this for me to meet my idol!”
The two fangirls screamed. Qin Yuandai took off his sunglasses, smirked, and glanced around the classroom, but didn’t find the target of his abuse.
Qin Yuandai paused slightly.
The fangirls were so happy they were about to faint. More players saw 003 was assigned to this game, but their subconscious reactions were… hard to describe.
Of course it was nice to have a big boss helping them complete the mission, but, hey, it was difficult to express! Not worth mentioning!
Qin Yuandai’s extravagant special effects lasted for 5 minutes. According to rumours, Dai-ge spent 100 million to get the privelege.
Rich people these days, what do they think about?
You Xi totally missed that giant welcoming scene. He was busy shopping during the 20 minute break in the mission hall, and had no time to learn about 003’s heroic deeds. He had only seen his number one fan called ‘003 Wansui’ on his fan reward list, leaving a superficial expression of codename 003. Other than that, You Xi had no idea who 003 was or what he looked like.
He strolled leisurely back to the classroom with a smile on his mouth, as dazzling as the stars and the sun and moon. The two fangirls saw him walk in and screamed again —
“Aaaahhhh! It’s 004! My new male god!”
“I don’t know who 004 is, but this gege is so handsome!”
Qin Yuandai sat in the center of the classroom, his face slightly dark. Liu Yu wiped his sweat beside him, feeling that the day’s air pressure was a bit low. 4
In all fairness, Qin Yuandai was very handsome. He had a high nose and thin lips. If You Xi made people feel sentimental, Qin Yuandai made people feel distant and cold.
With such a handsome guy in the classroom, even if You Xi had a strong resistance to human beauty, he couldn’t help but look at Qin Yuandai.
This person is–
“Laoshi?” You Xi stopped beside Qin Yuandai and gestured for him to look at the name strip on the desk. “Why are you sitting in my seat?”
