In the evening, in a high-end villa in XS City of Huaxia Country, Su Ruoyan put down the last dish and wiped her hands with an apron. Looking at the four dishes and one soup she had prepared, Su Ruoyan smiled slightly and raised her voice to call out to the second floor, "Shui'er, it's time to eat!"
"Coming, Big Sister." A female voice replied from the second floor. Soon, a beautiful seventeen-year-old girl bounced down the stairs. She was Hongyan Shuizhen in the game, whose real name was Su Shuizhen, and her nickname was Shui'er. She had just turned 17 and was still in high school, but was currently on vacation, staying at her cousin's house. Her cousin, the ice beauty Hongchen YanYu, whose real name was Su Ruoyan, was 22 years old.
"Hum~ hum hum~" Su Shuizhen hummed a song lightly as she sat down at the table, then saw her favorite braised chicken wings and shouted, "Wow, there really are braised chicken wings, Big Sister is the best!"
"You'll eat yourself to death." Su Ruoyan teased, "What's up today? I haven't seen you all day. If you don't practice, you'll fall behind the group."
In the game, there are always some classes that have to grind levels, like priests. Normally, priests level up in groups; solo grinding is safe but very slow. Su Shuizhen used to level up with the guild, but since she hadn't been seen all day, Su Ruoyan found it a bit strange.
"Right, right, Big Sister, today I did something very meaningful with Brother-in-law!" Su Shuizhen said proudly.
"Brother-in-law? Which sister's brother-in-law?" Su Ruoyan was momentarily confused.
"Yours, the one who touched your chest in front of thousands of people yesterday." Su Shuizhen said.
Mentioning this, Su Ruoyan blushed. She had really let him touch her yesterday, and now she couldn't even remember what she was thinking at the time. But it was too late to regret it. However, how did this guy know that Shui'er was her cousin, and why did he seek her out? Su Ruoyan had no idea that Su Shuizhen had posted on the forum and sold herself out.
"How did he find you? How did he know you're my cousin? Did he harass you?" Su Ruoyan asked, a bit angry.
"Ah, Big Sister, don't misunderstand." Su Shuizhen saw Su Ruoyan frown and quickly explained, "I met Brother-in-law by chance and told him."
"Oh..." Su Ruoyan nodded, her expression slightly better, "Then... did that pervert bully you? Don't be a fool and get taken advantage of."
"Brother-in-law didn't bully me at all; he was very nice to me." Su Shuizhen said immediately, "Brother-in-law even taught me a powerful skill."
"A powerful skill? What is it?" Su Ruoyan asked curiously.
Su Shuizhen proudly puffed out her chest: "Robbery!"
"Huh?" Su Ruoyan was taken aback, "Wait, are you talking about the same kind of robbery I'm thinking of?"
"Of course, it's about robbing money." Su Shuizhen nodded.
"That pervert actually took you to rob people?" Su Ruoyan's face darkened instantly.
"Yes, we robbed all day. Brother-in-law is so amazing; at his best, he just needs to glare, and the other person will obediently hand over the money." Thinking about it, Su Shuizhen felt Li Huailin's figure grow even taller, and she realized she still had a lot to learn.
"Amazing? Do you know that robbery is a bad thing?" Su Ruoyan was almost amused by her anger.
"I know." Su Shuizhen nodded, "But robbing with Brother-in-law is so much fun. I've never found online games as interesting as this before."
"You... you're not allowed to associate with that pervert anymore; he'll corrupt you." Su Ruoyan said immediately.
"No way, Brother-in-law is so amazing, and playing with him is so much fun." Su Shuizhen, who had finally found something so interesting, was unwilling to let it go.
"Return all the money you robbed tomorrow, or I'll really be angry." Su Ruoyan put on a serious face.
"Return it all? Why? It's a lot of money, about 20 gold." Su Shuizhen said, feeling very pained.
"Cough... cough..." Su Ruoyan almost choked, "H-how much?"
"About 20 gold. Brother-in-law and I robbed a total of 44 gold, and he said to split it, so I took 22 gold." Su Shuizhen said honestly.
"22 gold?" Su Ruoyan was truly shocked. The game had only been open for a week, and most people's total wealth was around 20-30 silver coins. Anyone with over 1 gold was considered wealthy. 22 gold, to be honest, the entire Red Women's Army guild, which had 43 members, didn't have 22 gold in total.
"How did you rob so much? Did you rob an entire guild?" Su Ruoyan asked quickly.
"Guild? Oh, right, we robbed the vice president of the Lingjie guild for 10 gold, and we also robbed Feng Yiliu, one of the top ten players, for 14 gold. Besides that, we robbed over 200 players." Su Shuizhen said proudly.
"Cough... cough..." Su Ruoyan was completely stunned.
"Right, Brother-in-law is so amazing; he defeated Feng Yiliu with just two strikes. I really admire Brother-in-law." Su Shuizhen's eyes sparkled as she spoke.
"Really? That pervert is that strong?" Su Ruoyan said, disbelieving.
"Of course, I saw it with my own eyes. Oh, I'm so stupid, I forgot to record it. If I had, I could have shown you how cool Brother-in-law looks in battle. I really let him down." Su Shuizhen said, looking a bit regretful.
Su Ruoyan fell silent. She knew her cousin well, and what she said was probably true. So, that seemingly perverted guy was actually a master stronger than Feng Yiliu. But why would such a master engage in such a trivial act of robbery? Was it just to play with her cousin?
Su Shuizhen looked at Su Ruoyan, her eyes twinkling. Playing with Brother-in-law was so much fun, and he was so nice to her. She had to help him: "Big Sister, Big Sister, let's go find Brother-in-law tomorrow. He really wants to see you, thinking of you all the time."
"I won't go. Tomorrow is the guild event, the level 15 dungeon, the Venomous Snake Cave. You're not allowed to go either. The guild finally has four level 15s, and tomorrow we'll have Ribbon practice to make it a full team of five level 15s." Su Ruoyan said seriously, "And I'll tell Sister Yue about the money you robbed. We'll follow her instructions on how to handle it."
"Ah? I want to go see Brother-in-law." Su Shuizhen didn't care about the gold, but she was very upset about not being able to see Brother-in-law.
"No, the guild only has one level 15 priest, and that's you. How can I run the dungeon without you? Don't cause trouble for Sister Yue." Su Ruoyan was more concerned that this child was too naive and might be deceived by that pervert.
"Um..." Su Shuizhen's face fell, but then her eyes twinkled with a plan. She pretended to be unhappy, "Okay, I'll listen to you, Big Sister."
"Good." Su Ruoyan didn't notice anything strange and nodded.
