**Boom!**
The moment she heard the word "sexual coldness," Lu Qian's mind exploded, her mature and dignified face turning bright red. She had indeed mentioned before that she was sexually cold, but the topic had been brought up by Xu Jianxing. Back then, Xu Jianxing had sent a drooling emoji and asked, "Honey, how do you usually handle your physiological needs when you're alone at home?"
Faced with this topic, Lu Qian had naturally blushed and felt embarrassed, but a strange thought also flickered through her mind. Under Xu Jianxing's persistent questioning, she had eventually replied, "I'm sexually cold."
Otherwise, she couldn't have told him that she took care of herself, even though she was more open with Xu Jianxing online, she still had a sense of shame.
In the midst of Lu Qian's chaotic thoughts, Xu Jianxing's bombardment didn't stop. "Honey, I remember you once said that your period usually comes around the 20th, and one time it was delayed by a week because you were feeling unwell, which made you very frustrated. Honey, I also remember you saying that you feel your chest is a bit too big, making it tiring to walk. Honey..."
"Stop, don't say any more..."
Lu Qian's scream was almost hysterical, feeling that her privacy was being exposed in reality, she felt deeply uncomfortable and uneasy.
"Sorry!"
Xu Jianxiang heard Lu Qian's unstable voice and was slightly stunned. His tone became a bit heavy as he said, feeling a bit regretful. If he had known they would meet in reality, he shouldn't have probed so much in the game, asking her so many personal questions, which now made the situation quite awkward.
For a moment, the phone was silent, with no sound at all, and the atmosphere became somewhat oppressive.
After a long time, Lu Qian sighed deeply, "I understand, you are the one from the game. That's all for now."
After saying that, Xu Jianxing heard the dial tone of the call being hung up.
"Ah, my big mouth." After a while, Xu Jianxing sighed. He was a bit regretful, having said such sensitive things. To prove he was "Flying Wing," there were other ways. He just wanted to gain "Honey's" trust too quickly.
"But, it's not bad this way. Although it's a bit hard to let go, I don't have to waste too much time in the game anymore." Xu Jianxing muttered to himself, feeling a bit sad. He had already decided to sell his account. Although his personality was sometimes a bit extreme, he thought selling the account was the best choice now.
Then, he calmed down, walked out of the room, and returned the phone to Su Wan'er with a bitter smile, saying, "Here's your phone. I'll use your computer for a bit."
Although this was reality, he still preferred to use the in-game nicknames, which was a habit.
Su Wan'er took the phone and, seeing Xu Jianxing's somewhat gloomy face, asked cautiously, "Brother-in-law, what's wrong?"
"Nothing, don't ask." Xu Jianxing waved his hand, not wanting to say more. He pulled the laptop in front of him and typed a private message to a player in the game called "Professional Life."
"Bro, what's up?" "Professional Life" quickly replied.
"Yeah, I have something going on in reality and don't plan to play anymore. I have some stuff in my warehouse that I want to sell. If you're interested, come to the Imperial City Warehouse. I'll sell everything to you at 70% of the market price." Xu Jianxing typed directly.
"Ah, many people are quitting the game now. I didn't expect you to quit too. I'll take everything. Bro, wait for me, I'll be there soon." "Professional Life" replied quickly.
At the same time, Su Wan'er was also anxious, pulling on Xu Jianxing's arm and saying, "Brother-in-law, what's going on between you and my sister? What are you doing now?"
After nearly a year of in-game relationship, no one would easily let go. Su Wan'er, being a smart person, could see what Xu Jianxing was about to do and naturally became anxious.
Xu Jianxing turned back and smiled faintly, "It's okay, Su Wan'er. There's no banquet that doesn't end. The game will eventually be left behind. But, given our current situation, even without the game, we can still be friends in reality. Don't try to persuade me. If you still consider me your brother-in-law, let go. Otherwise, I'll go to an internet cafe to sell it."
Seeing the determination in Xu Jianxing's eyes, Su Wan'er knew it was useless to say anything more but still pouted, "I'll call my sister."
While Su Wan'er was making the call, "Professional Life" arrived. Since both were familiar with market prices, the transaction went quickly. If it were in the past, Xu Jianxing would have left his items to his wife, but now, it was better for "Xin Xin" not to see them.
Moreover, from Su Wan'er's situation, he could easily guess that his wife was also a high-income earner. As the saying goes, people group with similar people, and things gather with similar things.
The transaction was completed quickly, and they said goodbye. Xu Jianxing sorted through the remaining valuable items and sent them to the two youngest girls in the family, one named Dudu and the other named Xiaohen. Both were high school students and the family's little darlings, who could only play for a short time after school.
Since Xu Jianxing had always played as a priest, these two little darlings had always called him "Mama." Although Xu Jianxing had suggested they call him "Papa," they found "Mama" more affectionate.
This made the lonely Xu Jianxing feel a sense of warmth every time.
Dudu, in particular, had a bit of a dependency on Xu Jianxing. She would often turn to him for help because they were from the same province, and their cities were only 60 kilometers apart.
Among the many male members of the family, there were also some who were close to Xu Jianxing, but they were not on his radar at this moment.
Men should be more carefree. If they weren't, they wouldn't be men. However, girls rarely had the same carefree attitude. Their emotions were more delicate, and Dudu and Xiaohen were the best examples. Xu Jianxing could confidently say that if he told them he was leaving, they would cry pitifully.
When Xu Jianxing had cleared out his warehouse, a private message from Dudu appeared in the game, "Mama, you sent me more stuff again. I knew Mama was the best."
This showed that sending items wasn't a one-time thing. However, Xu Jianxing usually didn't dare to send too many items to this careless girl because her account had no protection and was often stolen. Sometimes, Xu Jianxing even suspected that she had logged into some inappropriate websites.
He had even asked her privately, but she always said no, though Xu Jianxing did admire her for still enjoying the game even when her account was stolen and her equipment was poor. However, she played less now because she would be taking the college entrance exam in a year, and her family's management was stricter.
Seeing the message, Xu Jianxing smiled and replied, "Mama is always the best. Don't waste time on the game. You have the college entrance exam in a year. Study hard during the summer break so you don't cry when you don't get into college."
Dudu replied不满地, "Hmph, my studies are so good, I'll definitely get in. And, please, Mama, can you say something nice?"
"Okay, okay, I wish our big treasure gets into Longhua University!" Xu Jianxing laughed and replied, then switched to the family channel and typed, "Brothers and sisters, I have something going on in reality and will be leaving the game soon. I wish you all success and good fortune in the future."
When he finished typing "good fortune," Xu Jianxing took a deep look at the game interface and pressed Enter.
The moment the text appeared, Xu Jianxing immediately quit the game. He was afraid of farewells and didn't want to face them. Whether it was leaving home for school or coming out to work, he almost never let his family see him off, which had made him more independent. This farewell was almost a permanent one from his in-game friends, so he didn't want to face it.
"After the farewell, don't ask. There are countless things, unsaid."
Xu Jianxing felt many emotions, but after a moment, he calmed down. He then logged into the online trading platform, negotiated with the online staff, and entrusted his account to them.
"Ah, not bad. When I get the 2,800 yuan, life will be a bit easier." Xu Jianxing smiled bitterly and shook his head. A high-level account he had played for a year couldn't sell for much, only about 500 yuan, and the main value was in the in-game currency.
To say this price was low, it really was. After selling the items, the in-game currency alone was worth about 2,500 yuan, plus the account, so Xu Jianxing believed the account would sell quickly.
At this moment, Su Wan'er walked out of the room, sighing, "What's going on between you two? You're selling your account, and she doesn't want to talk. This is completely different from what I had imagined."
"What did you imagine?" Xu Jianxing asked with a bitter smile.
Su Wan'er immediately puffed out her chest and said fluently, "Of course, it would be a harmonious duet, a passionate fire, a melting snow, a story of a male and female beast. Hahaha..."
Seeing Su Wan'er's exaggerated laughter, Xu Jianxing was speechless. He knew that a dog's mouth couldn't produce ivory, and he was too familiar with this little sister-in-law.
