In Qi Xun’s life, there were a few times that he messed up.

Now that he was caught off guard by the messy situation, he was in a daze.

Le Han was super shy. He didn’t know why this handsome guy suddenly lifted his red veil. He was a little nervous and a little confused.

So both of them looked at each other for a moment. Both people stopped talking for a while, looking at each other for a minute.

In this minute, the eyes of the two people kept changing constantly. Le Han alone diverged from the initial feelings of shyness, curiosity, nervousness, and expectation, to doubt, suspicion, surprise, and consternation.

He read the complex expression on Qi Xun’s face and moved his lips to ask, “… You… found the wrong person?”

Qi Xun was silent for a second. Then he nodded and said in a low voice, “Yes.”

After speaking, Qi Xun’s eyes moved down silently, falling on the SM props in Le Han’s hands.

Le Han followed his gaze and immediately understood what was going on. His face alternated between red and white.

The two people: “…”

There was a lot of excitement around them, but the atmosphere on their side was weird.

The next second, Le Han blushed and threw the SM props to the ground. He lowered his head and used his hands to cover his face with shame; then he stepped hard on the props!

Oh, God! Shame! Shame to the extreme!

Qi Xun silently watched the actions of the boy in front of him. He was covering his face and stepping on the collar and the bunch of ropes to relieve his hatred. It should have been quite embarrassing, but Qi Xun didn’t know which nerve this picture poked on him, and he chuckled lightly.

The boy’s feet stopped.

Then he silently spread two fingers to look at him.

On the boy’s face exposed between the two fingers, Qi Xun saw a tear mole under the corner of his right eye.

The boy’s eyes were dim, staring at him motionlessly.

Qi Xun felt as if his heart was being scratched. When he saw this type of gay for the first time, he felt somewhat novel. Then, without thinking much about it, he said, “… You are pretty cute.”

Le Han: “!”

He silently retracted the feet that were on the SM props and put down the hands covering his face. Then he folded his hands in front of him, and his cheeks became red again.

He whispered shyly, “You, you are also very handsome.”

Qi Xun: “…”

Le Han: “…”

Well……

Qi Xun felt a little lost for a moment and moved his gaze. He coughed softly and said, “So, are we married now?”

“Yeah…” Le Han thought for a while, but he was still a little disappointed. The other party came to the game area to find someone, indicating that he already had a partner. “If we get married in this game area, we can’t get divorced until we brush our combined heart rate over one thousand.”

Le Han was here to look for a partner. Of course, he was not afraid of this. But since his ‘husband’ is here to find someone and already has his own object, what should he do?

Qi Xun also felt that this matter was a mess, but fortunately, Zhou Yao was just his brother, not his lover.

He took a deep breath and said lightly, “It doesn’t matter. I just came here to look for a friend. If you don’t find it, forget it. Anyway, we are already married. Let’s go to register first.”

While saying this, he opened his friends’ list and sent a message to Zhou Yao with no expression on his face: “I want you to die for me, what the hell are you doing?”

Zhou Yao remained silent.

Le Han was a little entangled. He carefully asked, “Well… what about your friend?”

Qi Xun glanced at the SM collar on the ground and said, “What he took should be your props. Now that the props are in your hands, it means that he has left this game area before.

As he said this, Qi Xun’s expression became complex.

In other words, Zhou Yao has been taken away by someone at this moment?

Although sympathizing with him, he didn’t say a word when he was taken away, which made him get married for no reason. The guy still owed a beating.

When Le Han heard the words, he nodded depressedly, “Oh.”

Although his ‘husband’ didn’t seem to be worried or angry, and there may not be the emotional disputes he imagined, he himself wanted to fall in love. If the other party doesn’t mean it, isn’t this marriage in vain, ah!

Moreover, this time he came here with his main account. If he doesn’t get a divorce, he won’t be able to marry in the future. And if his ‘husband’ doesn’t want to play with him, he will have to give up the account…

The more Le Han thought about it, the more frustrated he felt.

He put down his moral integrity and came to play in this game area. How could he encounter this kind of thing, ah? Such bad luck…

Could it be that he was born with a love insulating physique?

Today’s virtual games were very meticulous, and any emotion the player has will be fully reflected in his character image. Therefore, Qi Xun naturally saw the depression of Le Han hanging on his face.

Qi Xun has always been too lazy to meddle in other people’s affairs, but now this ‘business’ has something to do with him. Although he was pitted by Zhou Yao, he did delay another player’s good deeds. And maybe it’s because the zero in front of him looked lovely that Qi Xun was a bit subtle in his heart. He thought for a while and said, “Don’t worry, I won’t abandon this account and slip away. I will accompany you to fill up the heart value.”

Le Han listened and turned to look at Qi Xun. After thinking about it, there was no other way, so he nodded obediently, “Well, thank you then.”

Qi Xun noticed his two bulging cheeks and thought to himself that he was very cute.

When two people get married, the first thing to do is to register the marriage.

A holographic button appeared in front of them, with the word ‘Register’ written on it.

Qi Xun took the initiative to click. The scenery in front of them changed, and they arrived at a small room. A mother-in-law was sitting in front of them. She was also dressed very festive. When she saw them, she said with a smile, “Congratulations, congratulations, give birth to a son soon! Now, please write down your names!”

There was a small table in front of her, which had a registration book on it. The players have to write their names in the same column of the book with a brush to complete the wedding ceremony.

As for what to write, they naturally had to write their real online names.

Le Han picked up the pen and put the nib in the column. The brush moved on its own and wrote down the name ‘Gua Gua Gu.’

Qi Xun looked at it and then glanced at the boy beside him.

The boy’s hair was not very long, and it was tied with a dark blue headband. It gave off a tender feeling.

When he lowered his head to write, the tail of the braid at the back of his head dropped to his ear.

……. The name was just like the person, good-looking.

For a moment, Qi Xun felt as if he had earned quite a bit.

This thought flashed by, and he squinted slightly before leaving it behind.

After Le Han finished writing, it changed to Qi Xun.

Qi Xun picked up the brush, and Le Han leaned over eagerly. Although things didn’t follow the route he imagined, since the man married him, he certainly wanted to know more about the other person.

When Qi Xun picked up the brush, he was thinking, what was his name now?

He changed to his trumpet 1 Alternate game character just now. It seemed that he came here without changing any default settings?

It was just as he thought. When the tip of the brush touched the register, the brush moved on its own and finished writing a name in an instant – Young Man Chasing the Wind.

Le Han: “… …”

Qi Xun looked at his name and then turned his head to explain to Le Han: “This account is a trumpet I just created. My friend came to me for help. I didn’t want to marry him with my main account, so I created a trumpet.”

Le Han smiled dryly: “Hehe, it is indeed a new name with flavor…”

How to say, no matter how handsome the face is, with this age-filled online name, it will stop being attractive in an instant.

Qi Xun noticed Le Han’s sudden smile. He always felt that something was wrong, but he didn’t care too much about it. He thought that the other party would find out about his trumpet one day, so it was better for him to explain it earlier. However, it seemed that the other party was not a bit curious about his main account. –Qi Xun was using an alternate character, and he unwittingly revealed that he still had a main account, so the other person couldn’t help but test it out.

Qi Xun was prepared for Le Han to ask about his main character. Seeing that Le Han didn’t ask, he had a good feeling for Le Han in his heart.

Le Han said with a smile, “Ok, let’s move on to the next step.”

After getting married, the ‘bridal chamber’ must be completed.

Of course, players don’t need to make any 18 prohibited behaviors in the game. It’s enough to decorate the wedding room and stay in it for a while.

Qi Xun took the initiative to say that he didn’t have a house. Le Han had expected that, so he chose to arrange the wedding room in his home.

There were dozens of countries in the ‘Warring States’ game. Each player had to choose his nationality when registering an account. In this game, if the alternate character is associated with the main number, the citizenship must be the same as the main character.

The associated trumpet can obtain gold coins and items from the main character according to the limit specified in the game.

When crossing the border, players needed to pay with gold coins.

As for Qi Xun’s main character and nationality, Le Han was not interested in it for the time being. After all, in the game, who didn’t have an alternate account and one main character? What’s more, they were not familiar with each other. If he asked so profoundly all of a sudden, the other party could become unhappy. As far as Le Han’s own needs were concerned, he only needed a husband, and he really didn’t care about the others.

In any case, the two went smoothly to Le Han’s small hut on a farm somewhere in Zhao State. After leaving the ‘Tie the knot’ game zone, their wedding outfits automatically changed back to their usual clothes. They chatted a few words on the road to increase their understanding of each other. When they arrived at the hut, they saw that the simple cabin had been systematically arranged into a red wedding room. It was especially festive.

The night was dark, and the warm red light shone into the night sky, making it look a little warm.

There was a frog raised by Le Han on the farm, which was about half his height. At this time, there was a big red flower tied on the frog’s back.

Seeing the two people, the frog called out, “croak.” The frog’s eyes lit up, but it was somewhat confused when it watched its master walk straight into the house accompanied by a strange man.

Qi Xun looked at the small thatched cottage and found it particularly novel.

The Warring States game was a virtual game that rank promotion players and lifestyle players could play. Lifestyle players focus on farming, traveling, and experiencing the ordinary life of ancient people. On the other side, rank promotion players have to fight to conquer cities and build a country. According to the player’s strength level, to a certain extent, and the game rules, the player can have different roles. The positions include the country’s next emperor, prime minister, general, and so on. Players can even adjust their identities through the ‘Destiny Pool’ and become someone else’s son or daughter under the agreement with other players. Of course, most of the players that modify their identities do it to become princes or princesses.

As soon as Qi Xun came in contact with the Warring States game, he played the Rank Promotion route. Whether it was before as the prime minister of a big country or now as the rebel army’s leader, he lived in a very luxurious mansion. It was the first time that he saw a residence with such a dense atmosphere of ordinary life.

“Do you usually just grow the fields and follow the lifestyle player route?” Qi Xun asked casually after entering the house.

“Well,” Le Han answered, “my interest in fighting and killing is not great.”

After they entered the wedding room, a system message appeared in front of them, asking, “Do you want to tell your relatives and friends the good news?”

Le Han thought for a while and clicked ‘No.’ After all, they will still divorce in the future…

Qi Xun also clicked ‘No.’

There were two glasses of wine on the round table in the room, which must be for the formal exchange of wine cups between the bride and groom.

They looked at each other, and Le Han blushed and said in a low voice, “That, finish drinking first.”

“En.” Qi Xun answered, holding up the wine cup.

The two approached each other, stretched out their arms, went around each other’s arms, glanced at each other, lowered their eyes at the same time, and then drank the cup of wine silently.

The red candles were burning, and Le Han was nervous and tangled.

Qi Xun saw Le Han’s nervousness and said, “Let’s see how to increase the heart rate first.”

“Ok, good!”

The two men sat down beside the bed and opened the forum.

At this moment, there were already many posts about the ‘Tie the knot’ in the forum.

Although the ‘Tie the knot’ game area had been open before, it was only available for a day. The players who participated had made one or two posts. However, most of the posts were to discuss the shamelessness of the game. Because Le Han didn’t participate in it, he didn’t pay attention.

Now, those experienced players were exchanging expertise again.

Le Han touched his chin for a long time as he read and summed it up.

The so-called heart rate value was the player’s heartbeat index.

Game developers had long established mature technology that can capture the player’s brain waves and analyze and transform the data they need. Therefore, in today’s games, there were many interesting indexes such as ‘heart rate value’ and ‘anger value.’

And the comprehensive heart rate value was data formed by the combined heartbeat value of the husband and wife. That is to say, one person’s heartbeat is not enough, and the other person’s heartbeat must also follow. In this way, the thorough heart rate value can be high.

As for how to increase the heart rate of the two people? For that, each person must show their outstanding abilities… Generally speaking, perhaps it’s just to ‘mutually flirt.’ Both sides have to be involved in the flirting for the integrated heart rate value to be higher; otherwise, it won’t work out.

When the comprehensive heart rate reaches a thousand points, they have the right to divorce.

Speaking of it, this is also a point that many players have complained about -the heart rate is still low, and when two players have no feelings, the game won’t give in and let them separate until the heart value reaches one thousand when the right to divorce is granted. This series of settings from the ‘Tie the knot’ game area truly goes to the heart of the sentence: ‘Do something!’

After reading it, Le Han turned his head over, and Qi Xun just finished looking at the forum and turned to look at him.

The two men looked at each other for a moment.

“Hehe,” Le Han laughed awkwardly. “It seems that it’s a bit difficult; I’m not going to flirt——”

Before he finished speaking, the handsome man in front of him suddenly raised his hand and stretched it out.

Le Han was silent all of a sudden.

The man looked at him intently, and the candle was trembling slightly in his dark eyes. The man’s slender fingerprints slid over Le Han’s ear and reached behind his head; with a flick, the dark blue hair band fell on the bed, and Le Han’s black hair was scattered.

Le Han was stunned.

A little smile gradually appeared in the man’s eyes. His fingers slipped into Le Han’s hair and gently slid down. Over and over again, slowly and gently following Le Han’s hair, and from time to time, the man’s fingerprints touched Le Han’s scalp lightly, and those slight touches made Le Han’s scalp numb.

A progress bar suddenly appeared above his head. At this moment, the progress bar “BIU” soared to 50!

The man came close, looked at him slightly, and said softly in a low voice, “I’ll call you ‘Gua Gua’ from now on, all right? It feels quite cute.”

Damn… he ran into a full-level player!!!
