Chapter 376: The Terrifying Livestream Room (31)

"Mingyue, shall we go together?"

Qi Mingyue pulled Long Qiaoqiao along, the two looking very intimate. "I'd better go with Qiaoqiao, we still have some things to talk about."

"Are you going to keep this from me?" Before Wen Wan could finish speaking, Gu Li grabbed her by the back of her collar and dragged her away.

Wen Yan: "???"

What's going on? Is this a relapse?

"Gu Li, what are you doing?"

"There's no time to complete the task."

"Let go, you're choking me."

Gu Li released Wen Wan, who stopped and straightened her clothes. "What are you doing? Can you stop touching me? There's a difference between men and women."

"Then you go alone."

Wen Wan watched Gu Li turn and leave, feeling both angry and aggrieved. She walked up to him, grabbed his sleeve, and said, "I was wrong. You can pull me all you want from now on."

Nothing is more important than life. Wen Wan is a fragile newbie right now, the kind who could die at any moment. Moreover, the system, her cheat, isn't around, so she's in danger at every turn.

"From now on, you'll be my dad. Whatever you tell me to do, I'll do."

Before Wen Wan could finish speaking, her hand was pulled away. Gu Li took larger strides, and Wen Wan had to jog to keep up. "What's wrong with you now? You won't even listen when I call you 'Dad'? What do you want me to call you? Brother? Brother Gu, Brother Li, Brother Gu? Just slow down. If you tell me to go east, I'll never go west. If you tell me to go to heaven, I'll climb up a ladder myself. Wait for me..."

audience:"……"

—What's going on? Is Gu Shen jealous?

—But why be jealous? Chen Yao hasn't even spoken much with the other male players. Is it because of Qi Mingyue or Qi Jinli? That's unnecessary, isn't it? She's a girl; why should you be jealous of a girl?

—Haven't you seen that exposé? Chen Yao likes women.

—Huh? Where did you guys get this information? Didn't she have a boyfriend before? She even publicly revealed the characteristics of the boy she likes.

That's just trying to cover something up. After all, who in the entertainment industry would explicitly emphasize their sexual orientation so many times? What else could it be but a guilty conscience?

Wen Wan then took the axe and chopped for a long time until she collapsed on the ground from exhaustion. She had relied on her cheat system for too long and had almost forgotten what it meant to be a human being. She had used too much force and now felt weak all over and was not comfortable at all.

"Dad, help me!!!"

Gu Li gave her a cold look, and Wen Wan immediately changed her tune, "Brother, you are my own brother."

Gu Li took the axe and quickly chopped up the firewood. With plenty of time to spare, Gu Li picked some wild fruits and hunted a few rabbits. Only Gu Li could do this, since other players didn't have the guts to think about improving their meals in such a dangerous situation.

However, Wen Wan was fortunate.

Being an ordinary person has its advantages, namely, being able to eat. For Wen Wan, who prefers to eat rice, this is the greatest benefit.

After Gu Li finished preparing the roasted rabbit, Wen Wan devoured it. Gu Li was somewhat surprised, "It's so delicious?"

Wen Wan almost cried, "It's so delicious it'll explode!"

Now, even if you give her a piece of potato, she'll think it's delicious.

Besides, it really is delicious. I didn't see any seasonings added, yet it didn't have any fishy smell at all, just the pure aroma of meat and smoke. I wonder how Gu Li managed to prepare it.

Wen Wan wasn't unreasonable; she tore off a rabbit leg and handed it to Gu Li, saying, "You should eat some too, it's delicious."

Gu Li took the rabbit leg and ate it with elegance.

Wen Wan ate with unusual irritability.

But it was also exceptionally harmonious; the snow was heavy, and all was quiet.

Both of them are exceptionally good-looking, and sitting together makes for a stunning scene.

The screen quickly filled with comments; the viewers had forgotten about the vanished River God and started shipping a new couple.

After all, the River God is an NPC, and a relationship with the player is impossible; their ending can only be tragic.

But Gu Li is different. He's a player, and a top-tier one at that. Not only is his combat power high, but he's also incredibly handsome. In real life, he's no less attractive than the top celebrities in the entertainment industry.

The two have amazing chemistry.

Even her haters lamented that if Chen Yao had this level of acting skills and chemistry with her co-stars in dramas, she wouldn't have produced so many terrible shows from the start, using her beautiful face to create the most destructive impact, only to be ridiculed by the entire internet.

"Burp~" Wen Wan burped, feeling that she hadn't eaten so comfortably in a long time.

"Brother, from now on you're my brother. You can do whatever you want, just make sure you provide me with three meals a day."

Gu Li extinguished the fire. "Then let's bind it."

"Binding? What does that mean?"

"After we're linked, we'll still be assigned to the same group for the next live stream task."

"So that's how it can be done? Is there any price to pay?"

Gu Li: "Points."

Wen Wan checked how many points she had. "I'm very poor."

Gu Li: "Do you want to? Do you want to partner with me?"

Wen Yan: "..."

Does this even need thinking? Of course it does. After all, her mission was originally aimed at the male lead. If she could keep following him, she could not only get close to him but also complete her mission. Why not?

"Then let's bring Qi Mingyue along too."

Gu Li frowned. "Why? You like her a lot?"

Wen Wan: "You like her? She's so lucky, she's a born lucky charm. Taking her along can save us countless troubles, it's such a good deal."

“Only two people can be bound together, so you can’t bring anyone else,” Gu Li said.

Wen Wan: "Okay."

There has to be some kind of chemistry between the male and female leads, right? That's bound to happen.

"Then what do I need to do?" Wen Wan asked, genuinely unsure how to bind the device.

Wen Wan's hand was pulled over, and a small cut was made on her finger. Gu Li took out a jade pendant, dripped his blood onto it, and then dripped his own blood onto it as well.

Guidance System: [Does player Chen Yao agree to form a contract with player Gu Li?]

[The rules of the contract are as follows: Once the contract is formed, it remains unchanged until death.]

Wen Yan: "!!!"

Isn't that inappropriate?

[Three, two, one, assuming agreement, the bond begins.]

Wen Yan: "???"

What?! "I haven't even agreed yet, how can you make such a decision on your own?"

Guidance System: [The bond has begun and cannot be changed.]

Wen Wan felt her heart pounding, sensing a faint connection from the outside world. "Bandit System, I want to report you."

No sooner had she finished cursing than Gu Li pulled her into his arms, saying, "If it hurts, just yell it out."

Wen Yan: "..."

She tried to hold back, but in the end she couldn't, and tears streamed down her face uncontrollably.

"Ouch~"

"It will be ready soon."

Wen Wan: "Mm."

After an unknown amount of time, Wen Wan fainted. Gu Li held her in his arms, took off his coat and wrapped it around her, then walked step by step towards their residence. The other players had not yet returned. The old man sleeping by the fireplace opened his eyes and looked at Gu Li. After Gu Li looked over, the old man NPC closed his eyes again and continued to sleep. No one saw the old man NPC's fear.
