Chapter 587 Gift & When did she top up her account?

Yu Xunge took the withered golden tree leaf and walked to Tu Lan's side, handing it to her.

Tu Lan, who was playing a game, immediately said, "I didn't help you in this game, so you don't need to give me any points!" After a pause, she added, "The last part about the blue food tent is nothing, so you don't need to pay me back!"

Yu Xunge took a deep breath, then sighed heavily. She half-squatted beside the sofa, looked into Tu Lan's eyes, and said in a soft, gentle voice, yet with utmost seriousness:

"This has nothing to do with contributions. I'm not thanking you for helping me in the end, it's not to repay a favor, it's not a transaction, it's not about fairness, and there's no ulterior motive... This is just..."

She placed the withered leaf on Tulan's belly and patted it: "This is a gift. I got something good and wanted to share it with you, so I gave it to you as a gift. That's all. It's no different from pocket money, small toys, or ice cream. It's just a gift and has no special meaning."

After saying that, she hurriedly rubbed Tu Lan's head a few times, took out all the delicacies below 2 stars from her backpack and put them on the table, then teleported back to her bedroom on the second floor to rest.

...

The living room remained quiet for a long time.

Tulan stared blankly at the GAME OVER message on the screen, clutching a withered golden tree leaf.

Fortunately, B8017913 isn't very competitive and isn't particularly obsessed with playing games. It doesn't care if Tulan doesn't play.

After a long silence, Tulan suddenly said to B8017913, "Do you know? After the last God's Game, she gave me half of my harvest, a full three golden tree leaves."

"oh?"

"I thought I was happy enough that time, but this time, even though I only got one piece, I was so much happier than last time. I don't know how to describe it, and I can't explain why."

"Do you think she wasn't sincere enough last time?"

"No! Of course not!!!"

After a fierce rebuttal, Tulan raised the withered golden tree leaf high and looked through it at the moonlight outside the window.

She spoke in a low voice, faster and faster, as if she had finally sorted out her chaotic thoughts and was afraid that if she didn't seize them quickly, they would slip away:

"Like a magic formula, her feelings are like a magic formula. You need to input this kind of positive emotion for her to slowly respond with the same positive emotion. If you input 1, she will give you 0.5, 0.8, 0.9. She will not neglect you, ignore you, or make you feel like you are performing a solo act. Everything you give will be rewarded by her."

B8017913, recalling the moments he shared with Yu Xunge in the game, agreed, saying, "Rich yet stingy."

After carefully considering the two words, Tulan nodded and added, "Real and cold, like a pre-written program... But this!!"

The little ice dragon flew up, holding up the withered golden tree leaf!

She flew around the living room two or three times before finally stopping at B8017913. She held up the golden tree leaf, which was half the size of her body, in front of the mini magic cube.

Do you know what this is?

"This is the first time she's given me a signal!"

B8017913 couldn't actually handle such complex emotions, so it stated matter-of-factly: "But she said that what she gave you was no different from pocket money, small toys, or ice cream."

Tu Lan did not refute this statement. She recalled Yu Xunge's emotions just now, so clumsy and cautious, like trying to scoop up a precious grain of sand in the water with both hands, but afraid that if the movement was too big, it would be swept away by the current.

"Yes, that's the key. They're all the same; they're all just there to make me happy. They're not about calculating who contributes more or less. Making me happy is their purpose."

Tulan held the withered leaves of the golden tree and said softly, "But this is different from snacks and toys. This is her sharing her glory and power with me."

She understood Yu Xunge better than anyone else. In the latter's heart, no matter how expensive the clothes, food, or toys were, they could not compare to something that could bring power.

In Yu Xunge's mind, these were two completely different value systems. No matter how beautiful or rare ordinary items were, in Yu Xunge's eyes they were nothing more than a pile of useless trash.

If Yu Xunge were presented with both a globally limited edition dress and a floral cotton-padded jacket that could boost her attributes, she would undoubtedly choose the floral cotton-padded jacket without hesitation.

B8017913 was silent for a moment, then suddenly said:

“She didn’t have any purpose when she went to the abandoned area to find me. She was just curious about me. She kept calling my number and calling me from the garbage mountain. I ignored her at first, but she kept calling me until she got annoyed and I answered.”

Tu Lan: "..."

Tu Lan said coldly, "That's impossible. She must have had a purpose and a plan when she came to find you!"

The B8017913 Rubik's Cube flashed, but before it could make a sound, it was frozen by an ice-type skill.

After releasing the upgraded aurora screen, Tu Lan carefully put the withered golden tree leaves into her spatial pocket, muttering, "What a pain in the ass!!"

B8017913, who didn't use the dodge skill to save power: "..." I was careless.

...

Yu Xunge slept for almost two days and two nights before waking up.

She entrusted all social interactions to Tulan, trusting that Tulan, who understood her, knew how to maintain appropriate boundaries.

As for herself, she's used to being alone, so she hasn't wasted much time and energy on interpersonal relationships, and no one says she's forgotten her roots.

Even before she topped the charts, some of her past was exposed. She was someone who decisively abandoned her fans and left the industry after participating in the closed beta test, only concerned with leveling up and not enjoying the adoration of others.

Players who wanted to know about her recent situation went to Tulan's social media.

Since returning with Yu Xunge, Tu Lan has been creating a nine-square grid every day, featuring the cat in the backyard, the go-kart track that Dinghai built for her, and the delicacies left behind by Yu Xunge.

The only one missing is B8017913, which all players are curious about.

When Tulan gets tired of playing, he will reply to players' messages.

She used to dislike such lively events. When she first came to Zaijiu, Dinghai was willing to pay a lot of money to let her fly around a few times to boost morale and stabilize people's hearts, but she was not willing. However, after playing a few times, she found that the people who came to Zaijiu all had very pleasant voices.

The first thing Yu Xunge did after waking up was to contact Zhao Shuying.

She wanted to build an alchemy workshop and an engineering workshop next to the racetrack, but she didn't have enough time to deal with the old blacksmith, so she planned to have someone from Dinghai help her deal with his demands.

In addition, she also wanted the nearby land, but some of the places were inhabited, so she had to negotiate with Dinghai about that.

I was startled as soon as I opened my system interface.

Why are all the borders on the screens gold?! Personal information, game inventory, leaderboard information, chat interface... everything is edged in gold.

Moreover, in all the game rankings, her name was the only one that turned gold, and was even bolded and flashed, it was just short of adding a gold SVIP label after her name.

She only needed to sleep for a short while, how could she not know when she recharged her account?!

She stared blankly at the game interface for too long with a blank expression.

A voice echoed in my mind.

Don't you like it?

Yu Xunge: "..." The phrase "terribly corny" stuck in his throat, unsure whether he should say it or not.
