[Case solved, folks! My wife seems to be a hater?]
[How much hatred must there be! To hold a grudge for so long!]
For the first time, Jiang Chenzhou regretted his youthful arrogance. He was a regular at internet cafes back then, playing almost every game imaginable! His original ID was "Your dad is invincible," but he changed it to "zhou" after becoming a professional player, mainly because he was lazy and didn't know what else to choose.
Jiang Chenzhou remained silent, then apologized. Although it had been a long time and he had killed too many people in the game to remember, his words were indeed in line with his style at the time.
Yu Qiuchi shook his head: "Later, I waited for you in the game for a month, but you never came online. Then I saw this ID again in a game live stream, but it was a different game, an offline Counter-Strike tournament. Back then, the competitions weren't as formal as they are now, there weren't so many rules and regulations."
Yu Qiuchi paused, hesitating whether to say, "Back then, you were abusing a corpse, and then you smugly gave the other side a thumbs-down gesture and said, 'Noob, practice more.'"
That was Jiang Chenzhou in his flamboyant era; he just became increasingly taciturn later on.
When his dark past was brought up, Jiang Chenzhou felt a mix of indescribable emotions.
He could guess that Yu Qiuchi had been a fan of his for many years, but he couldn't have imagined that the two of them had known each other since then, since he was still in a small, run-down internet cafe.
"But Zhou Shen, you were really cool back then!" Yu Qiuchi praised, "I was terrible at games back then. I didn't even want to log into games where I was getting crushed. I dreamed of telling my opponents to practice more."
That was the beginning of Zhou Shen's dominance in the counter-terrorism professional competition. However, he later experienced the departure of generation after generation of teammates, and eventually he also left the competition.
This also marks the beginning of Yu Qiuchi's rebellion against her father's infidelity.
Yu Qiuchi watched Jiang Chenzhou fight his way out of the country and lift the golden trophy. He thought he could also break free from his father's cage, but in the end, reality told him that he was still controlled by his father.
He was a failure, so Jiang Chenzhou's success attracted Yu Qiuchi to some extent.
[Congratulations on triggering the hidden newbie story event.]
Song Yaozhuo, who was studying flowers and plants, encountered something that caused a server-wide announcement.
A layer of red mist rose around the seven people, and a yellow warning appeared above their heads.
"Prime Minister, activate purification!" Jiang Chenzhou said to Gu Xiaojun, who was standing to the side.
Everyone was mesmerized by the red mist. Divine Light Purification is one of the basic skills of the Emperor's Form, capable of removing negative effects.
Gu Xiaojun entered a chanting state, and a pair of white wings appeared behind him, canceling out the pink mist.
Everyone felt much more alert.
A cluster of peach trees appeared around them, the village chief disappeared, and a peach tree larger than the others appeared before everyone's eyes.
A woman threw a white silk ribbon onto a peach tree branch, sobbing and wailing as she prepared to hang herself: "Zhou Lang, Zhou Lang, how cruel you are! Waaah, why did you abandon me..."
This sounds like a dramatic ethical drama, and Yan Qing even felt like eating some melon seeds.
[Option to prevent hanging]
[The option to stand by and do nothing]
Yan Qing replied listlessly, "Of course I'll just stand by and watch! I won't get involved in love-struck matters!"
Jiang Chenzhou also said, "Standing by and doing nothing, this game often doesn't follow the expected pattern."
Yu Qiuchi listened to advice and chose the option of standing by and doing nothing.
The seemingly frail woman immediately uprooted a peach tree and attacked them. Before anyone could react, except for Xie Tingsi who was invisible, the rest of them were wiped out by a single sweep of the peach tree.
[Monster's rage meter is full]
"Why didn't you try to stop me? Why didn't you try to stop me! Waaah, I'm just a weak little woman, heartbroken by a scumbag, and now I have to die by hanging myself, it's such a horrible death!"
Xie Tingsi gave the woman in front of him, who was crying with disheveled hair, a thumbs up: "A heroine among women."
Then the woman swept him away with another blow.
【Resurrection Success】
[The player was stunned! Haha, the developers predicted the players' prediction!]
[To be honest, this game was really frustrating ten years ago. Back then, there weren't many guides, and I spent half a month figuring things out in the starting area before I finally got out!]
This time, Yu Qiuchi chose to stop the hanging.
"It's just a man, aren't men with two legs hard to find?" This was the official line, and Yu Qiuchi just read it aloud.
"You don't understand, Zhou Lang is handsome and considerate, the dream lover of countless women." The woman blushed slightly, then suddenly erupted again: "How could you say anything bad about Zhou Lang! How could you allow that!"
Everyone watched as the woman pulled up the tree and returned all the water to the spring.
Upon being resurrected, everyone fell silent as they faced the two options.
"Since you want to die, then I'll send you on your way." Xie Tingsi lost his patience. When he saw the option, he stabbed the woman, ending her conflicted life. "This way, it won't look as ugly as hanging yourself!"
Indeed, the woman had a beautiful face and lay lifeless amidst the peach blossoms, like a painting.
This time, no one died; only a man walked towards them from a distance.
The man, dressed like a scholar and walking with a slight limp, bearing the title of Zhou Yu, bowed to the seven men and said, "Young heroes, may I ask if you have ever seen Chunniang?"
[I've seen the options before]
[I haven't seen this option before]
★This option affects the branches below, please select it with caution.
Yu Qiuchi and the others stared silently at Chunniang, who lay dead beautifully beside them, and couldn't help but wonder if the creator's thought process was a bit off.
And this Zhou Lang might not be a scumbag, but just blind!
Based on his previous experience, Yan Qing decided not to answer this question. He said to the man, "Are you blind or have something wrong with your head?"
