01:45:00 AM on the second night of the game

It was almost dawn.

In the alley above the ruins, a tall man in a gray windbreaker bent his long legs, leaned against the wall with his arms folded, and looked at the man and woman in front of him in silence.

There was a huge backpack at his feet, and three or four players were standing in front of him, pointing at the transparent shopping panel in the air.

He looked busy, but his eyes met at an inappropriate time.

In fact, when they met at the blind date party that day, they were both a little surprised and even embarrassed - especially Qianyue.

In an instant, the images of the cloak being pulled off, the hair being ripped, and the hat being tilted all appeared in her mind, making Qianyue, who was usually used to doing whatever she wanted, inexplicably feel shorter in front of others.

However, in front of the parents, the two of them tacitly did not talk about the game, but just introduced themselves politely. As a result, before they even said a few words, Qi Feng was called back to the company because of a phone call.

So nothing happened between the two of them, and there was no special relationship between them.

But at this moment, when she met those deep eyes, Qianyue felt inexplicably guilty. It felt like she had been caught red-handed.

Qianyue coughed lightly: "...I can explain."

Yuan Dongqi thought these words were directed at him, so he hummed twice and reached out to pull Qianyue's arm.

Yuan Dongqi: Explanation is one thing, but you should let me go first.

Qi Feng looked away as if nothing had happened, as if he hadn't seen anything. However, a few players nearby heard the noise and tilted their heads to look.

Qianyue: “…”

After being interrupted by Yuan Dongqi, Qianyue immediately realized that this was a game.

In most people's minds, Qi Feng is just a special NPC, so she can't talk to him about three-dimensional things in front of other people.

So Qianyue turned to look at Yuan Dongqi, and her momentary guilty conscience suddenly turned into full of anger.

She gritted her teeth and said, "Speak clearly! What do you mean I didn't say that when I tied you up last night?"

She had clearly tied him up this morning and didn't say anything - because Yuan Dongqi had already been knocked unconscious by her.

Yuan Dongqi was almost suffocating from the suffocation and quickly pointed at her hand: "Mmmmm."

Qianyue gave him a warning look to be careful with his words before letting go.

Yuan Dongqi took a deep breath and said, "That's right. I asked you when you were going to release me, and you said you had no plans for the time being—Ah!"

Qianyue withdrew her foot expressionlessly, "Use your brain before you open your mouth. What do you mean by not having that plan? I meant I haven't thought it through!"

Yuan Dongqi: "...isn't this the same idea?"

What's the meaning?!

It sounds like a prison play! The more you describe it, the worse it gets!

Everyone: Prick up your ears.jpg

Even Qi Feng couldn't help but look over here again.

Qianyue's expression suddenly turned ugly, and she said, "...Sorry, I'll come back to buy things later."

The shopping panel disappeared from sight, and Qianyue grabbed Yuan Dongqi's collar and pulled him out.

"Hey, hey, why are you fighting again..." The 1.80-meter-tall boy was forced to bend down and was dragged out. It looked funny no matter how you looked at him.

After turning the corner, Qianyue threw him outwards, and Yuan Dongqi slammed hard against the broken wall, knocking off several bricks. Passersby glanced back and hurriedly walked away.

Qianyue stared at Yuan Dongqi with a look of concern: "Those two backpacks you saw were taken from your two teammates by me. I have a bad temper, but for my brother's sake, I won't hit you this time."

"But don't be so conceited as to do any little things. My patience has its limits."

Seeing that she was serious, Yuan Dongqi quickly said seriously, "That's not what I meant. I want to cooperate with you and won't hold you back. I'm a doctor and I can help you with your treatment."

Qianyue looked at him as if he were a fool.

She asked, "You've already lived in the cat ear cave for a day. Do you think I need it?"

“Ah, this…”

Yuan Dongqi was speechless for a moment. The hole was as solid as a turtle shell, and it seemed that it was really unnecessary.

"But there will always be unexpected events..." Yuan Dongqi wanted to explain something, but Qianyue directly threw out an ultimatum, saying in a cold voice: "I'm telling you one last time, don't follow me."

Yuan Dongqi: "..."

After being rejected time and again, Yuan Dongqi was starting to feel a bit embarrassed. In the real world, many people were eager to curry favor with him, and it was rare for him to be rejected.

However, Yuan Dongqi did not feel that "she is so special" because of this.

He simply thought that Qianyue was capable and could cooperate, but since the other party's attitude was so clear, he didn't say anything more.

Yuan Dongqi knew that his previous behavior had made Qianyue a little angry, and he smiled helplessly: "If you don't want to, then forget it. Sorry for causing you trouble."

Seeing that he was so understanding, Qianyue's expression improved a lot.

Yuan Dongqi changed the subject: "But if there is a chance in the future, I still look forward to working with you."

Qianyue nodded perfunctorily, but thought in her heart: She is used to fighting alone, so there should be no chance for cooperation.

Qianyue casually reminded him, "You should leave quickly. This market is only open at night. It will be troublesome if you wait until dawn."

After saying that, she turned and walked towards the alley where Qi Feng was.

Yuan Dongqi thanked her and turned around. He had originally planned to stroll around the market, but after hearing Qianyue's words, he paused slightly and then left the night market.

Although he didn't ask Qianyue where she got the news, Yuan Dongqi instinctively chose to believe it. It just so happened that since they were separated, he had to find a new base before the next bombing.

But as he walked, he suddenly remembered that he seemed to have overlooked something.

Yuan Dongqi recalled: "Wait a minute, she just said, for her brother's sake, let me go?"

Who is her brother? Does she know him? Is he a close friend or is it simply a matter of interest?

After carefully recalling Qianyue's face in his mind, Yuan Dongqi felt a sense of familiarity again.

——When he first saw her clearly, Yuan Dongqi had felt this way. But at that time, he thought it was because they had met before in the second dungeon, so he didn't take it to heart.

But now it seems that Yuan Dongqi always feels as if they have seen it in real life - but there is no such thing as face pinching in "Ten Day Plan", and everyone uses their real appearance.

If they had really met outside the game, Yuan Dongqi would not have forgotten Qianyue's appearance.

"Who does it look like..."

Yuan Dongqi walked and pondered, the more he pondered, the more familiar it felt, but he couldn't call out the name. Wait - he suddenly realized something else:

He seemed to have forgotten to ask the other person's name.

Meanwhile, Qianyue, having thrown off her bag, returned to the alley. It was almost dawn, and the few players who had been surrounding Qi Feng had left without a trace.

In the thin morning mist, the man picked up the backpack with one hand and threw it over his shoulder. As if he heard footsteps, he straightened his waist slightly and looked up at the person coming. His handsome face was calm, as if he had been waiting for a long time.

Their eyes met briefly in the air, and Qianyue suddenly stopped.

...Why did she start to feel guilty again?

Stand up straight!
