“Are you short of money?” Qin Chuan asked after receiving a text. “Yes.” She didn’t hide it. “How about this… You have over 60,000 yuanbao in your account, sell them to me first. My girlfriend wants me to top up for her.”
“Okay, okay,” Su Yao quickly finished her meal, “There’s an internet cafe next door, after we eat, I’ll transfer it to you, cash on delivery, you want all, right? I’ll give you a 20% discount if you take all.”
Hesitating, he asked, “Are you really selling your account?” “Really!”
“Alright,” Qin Chuan looked at the girl who had already finished two bowls of rice and was still eating, “If you can beat me, I’ll buy your account.” “Deal!” This condition was perfect, Su Yao thought, this guy was quite confident. “What’s your ID?” Su Yao asked casually.
“Changsheng Hall.” Three gentle words. Chapter Eight: Girlfriend–>Pfft, pfft, pfft, pfft, pfft— Su Yao spat out her food like bullets. “You… you… you… you’re Changsheng Hall?!?!” Shock, fear, disbelief! How could this dead otaku be Changsheng Hall? And they’ve been in the same city for so long without her knowing?! Su Yao felt she must be hallucinating!
“Are you… are you the Changsheng Hall they call ‘Seven Times a Night’?” Su Yao still couldn’t believe it, and Qin Chuan, who had just taken a sip of tea, choked on it at her words. Su Yao looked at him with a strange expression, still chewing her chicken. They say you do it seven times a night, she said. Changsheng Hall, besides his official title as the Lord of the Rebirth City, had another nickname: The Seven-Times-in-One-Night Man.
She only knew that when she had just started playing the game, she heard about the Seven-Times-in-One-Night Changsheng Hall from veteran players. Back then, she didn’t understand much about the famous figures in the game; she just thought it was funny and asked those old players. After asking a couple of times without success, Su Yao lost interest; she was there to relax, not to chase celebrities. But now, this legendary Lord of Rebirth City, Changsheng Hall, was sitting right in front of her, looking at her frail self after three days without food or a shower.
Su Yao’s tears and snot were all over her face; she just couldn’t reconcile the legendary man capable of seven times in one night with the frail, skinny otaku standing before her. Qin Chuan finally managed to calm down. Looking at Su Yao’s empty plate, he thought, “She wouldn’t eat the ones on the table too, would she?” “Are you done eating?” he asked her. “Shall we go to the internet café?” Su Yao coughed, “I’m done, let’s go!”
Qin Chuan was reluctant to go to the internet café. The air was a mix of unpleasant smells and filled with coarse language and dirty talk.
When Qin Chuan stepped into the dimly lit small door of the internet café, he felt momentarily dazed. It had been almost ten years since he last visited such a place.
“What are you thinking about?” Su Yao picked up the login card, noticed Qin Chuan spacing out, and wondered what was on his mind. “Let’s go.” Qin Chuan snapped back to reality, resumed his usual nonchalant demeanor, and led the way into the corridor to a vacant non-smoking booth in the corner.
Su Yao turned on the computer, logged into the game, and was immediately greeted with over two hundred private message notifications. She clicked “ignore all” and opened her mailbox to write a message, attaching sixty thousand ingots, with the recipient’s name as “Long Sheng Dian”.
“Wait.” Qin Chuan suddenly said, “Don’t send it to my main account.” While Su Yao was still puzzled, Qin Chuan gestured for her to move aside and typed a name directly on her keyboard — “San Tu Chuan”. “Your alt?” The number one female thief of the world, Red Medicine Hall, vaguely remembered seeing this alt somewhere, but couldn’t recall.
She only noticed that Qin Chuan’s nails were long, his fingers slender and pale, lacking strength and hindered by the nails from performing intense keyboard operations. Her professional habit from years ago allowed Su Yao to make a judgment instantly; this man could not possibly beat her. No wonder people in the world offer high prices to hire him, yet he never came to challenge her! Not only did he not show up, he didn’t even dare to show his face! Why? He must be scared! Su Yao laughed in her heart. The “Ragnarok” in the hands of the Lord of Rebirth City, the only legendary artifact in the entire server, could be seized upon the owner’s defeat just like the King’s Scepter! He must be afraid that the notorious her would take away his scythe.
If he loses and she takes away his life-like scythe, would he strangle her in anger? Brave Red Medicine Hall! Grab the scythe, and your account’s value could multiply tenfold! Then there would be plenty of nouveau riche willing to buy it!
Ahahaha, at that time, you could date whoever you want, a pretty boy today, a muscle man tomorrow, or even indulge in some exotic men from Europe and America for some fun games…
Just as Su Yao was calculating her beautiful future life, Qin Chuan spoke up: “Check the amount, fill in your card number.” His screen displayed the online banking transfer page. Su Yao confirmed the five-digit amount was correct, joyfully entered her card number, and clicked confirm along with sending the in-game mail. Ingot sent, RMB received. Su Yao was ecstatic, but she knew the real joy was yet to come. “Let’s PK!” Su Yao rubbed her hands together. At that moment, her game screen popped up with another private message notification. In a good mood, she opened it, and then… she was shocked.
[[Private Message] Liu Shui Chang Si: Hey Yao, you’re online but ignoring everyone? Did you get hacked or what? Cang Hai is about to marry that B*tch Liu Li! I can’t believe this, weren’t you guys good before? What’s going on, a threesome? Don’t pick up a public bus!]
Liu Li… Fck… The Princess of Yan, wasn’t she locked up by me? How did she suddenly decide to marry the idiot? Could it be that the woman who traveled far to sleep with the idiot and got pregnant by him is Liu Li? Fck…
Su Yao’s fingers dug into the keyboard, making it creak. She knew that only that woman known as a public bus in the server could do such a thing, and did it often. But compared to the enormous wealth she was about to get her hands on, all this was just a fleeting cloud.
Su Yao laughed heartily in her heart, Ji Cang Hai, oh Ji Cang Hai, no wonder you’re an idiot, you were defeated by an even bigger idiot. Without you, I wouldn’t have this chance to defeat Long Sheng Dian today. “Hold on, my girlfriend just logged in, let me give her the ingots first,” Qin Chuan said.
Su Yao wasn’t in a rush to PK; she was curious to see who this lucky girl was, the girlfriend of the otaku who could give away sixty thousand ingots in an instant. She must be a very lovely girl, Su Yao thought.
[My dear, you’re online? I missed you so much, I love you!]
The private message box of the level 50 Shadow Assassin alt “San Tu Chuan” popped up. Qin Chuan mailed over the sixty thousand ingots. To her shock, both the sender of the private message and the recipient of the ingots were the same name — “Liu Li.” She was stunned, dumbfounded!
Then, another private message popped up on San Tu Chuan’s screen.
