Chapter 14 You Can Call Me Sister
"Why don't you take a nap? There's no nap on the construction site. You'll be very tired in the afternoon."
Gu Nan took a look and saw that the steamed dumplings and corn were already in the steamer, and the red bean porridge in the pot was almost done. He was still beating eggs and mixing flour, as if he was going to make omelets.
Lin Layue is very nimble and skillful. She can crack an egg with one hand without spilling the egg liquid everywhere. She looks very skilled.
He lowered his head to beat the eggs, his arm muscles bulging with the movement, his smooth and slender muscle lines very beautiful, "I promised to make breakfast for you before leaving."
Gu Nan smiled and said, "Okay, I'll try your cooking today, and you can try mine tomorrow."
After saying that, he turned around and went to the bathroom to wash up.
The steamed dumplings and corn are frozen, so they taste as they should, but the red bean porridge is cooked by Lin Layue over a fire. Every grain of rice has burst into popcorn, and every red bean has released sand, but it is not too soft. It is smooth yet substantial in the mouth, and the heat is controlled just right.
Gu Nan was amazed after taking a bite, "Chef Lin!"
Gu Nan drank the porridge in big gulps and praised vaguely, "It's better than any red bean porridge I've eaten before. You are amazing."
Having food praised by diners would probably make any chef in the world happy and smile knowingly. Lin Layue was no exception. His handsome face instantly relaxed and his eyes sparkled.
Just like the smile I had when I got off the bus yesterday, it is a kind of confidence and satisfaction that comes from having one's abilities demonstrated and recognized.
"If you like it, I'll make it for you tomorrow."
Gu Nan puffed his cheeks and shook his head, "We agreed, I'll do it tomorrow."
Suddenly, she seemed to remember something, raised her eyebrows and smiled: "I know your name, but you don't know mine yet. Do you want to guess?"
His eyes kept scanning the red bean porridge in front of him.
Lin Layue got it and asked tentatively, "Red Bean?"
Gu Nan nodded, smiling slyly, "No, let me give you a hint, it's the line about red beans in 'Lovesickness'."
Wang Wei's "Lovesickness"—red beans grow in the south… Lin Layue stammered as she tried to put together the characters in the poem. It wasn't "red beans," and girls' names generally didn't contain the character "国" (country). It was…
"Nansheng." Gu Nan smiled and said, "My last name is Gu, Gu Nansheng. You can call me Anan or Nansheng, but I'm one year older than you, so you can call me sister if you want."
By the end, there was a hint of wanting to take advantage, and also something inexplicably charming.
But that’s not the case. Whether before or after she entered the book, she is older than Lin Layue, so she really deserves to be called sister.
Lin Layue looked at Gu Nan's smile and blushed for some reason. She couldn't call her sister and only said, "Your name is very nice."
Gu Nan thanked him modestly, "Thank you, I feel the same way."
After eating the red bean porridge, Gu Nan tried the egg pancake he made. The pancake batter was very tender and the heat was very light. He sprinkled some chopped green onions on it before taking it out of the pan, leaving a lingering fragrance in his mouth.
After breakfast, it was almost six o'clock. Lin Layue had to catch the earliest bus. Gu Nan asked him to put down the dishes and she would clean up.
Lin Layue changed into the old work clothes she wore yesterday. They were washed very clean and had a faint scent of lavender on the lapels.
He sat at the door and changed his shoes. Gu Nan also changed his shoes and said, "Give me your phone."
Lin Layue was puzzled, but still took out his cell phone from his pocket and gave it to her.
Gu Nan took the old phone with worn buttons, entered his own number, made a note, tried dialing, and when the call went through, he hung up and gave it back to Lin Layue.
"Save my phone number, so you can contact me if you need anything."
Lin Layue said nothing and put the phone into her pocket silently.
Gu Nan sent Lin Layue to the bus stop, watched him get on the bus, and then turned around to look for a nearby Internet cafe.
The night before last, she edited a few videos of herself completing a game and posted them online. She wondered what the response was like and whether anyone had asked her to help them complete it.
Since he was alone, Gu Nan didn't ask for a private room. He found a secluded corner to sit down and logged into his account while downloading the game.
"Gods of Extinction" is currently still in its heavy promotion period. There are many high-end players and pioneers online who are trying out the game, but it has not yet entered the popular blowout of national games. Therefore, this game is generally not downloaded on computers in Internet cafes. Every time you get a new computer, you have to download it again, which is very troublesome and a waste of time.
Gu Nan knew that it was not a good idea to lead people to play games in the Internet cafe all the time, but he was short of money at the moment and the business had not officially opened yet. He could only make do with it for now and consider buying a computer when he had some income.
Gu Nan went to the game section of major social software, clicked on the "Gods of Extinction" section, and checked the number of views of his video.
Most of the videos have sunk to the bottom, and only one short video software and Tieba section has a slightly higher number of video views, but it is not that good and is not ranked in the entire section.
But at the beginning, it was a pleasant surprise that two videos were able to be uploaded. If I edit more and upload them later, things should get better.
She checked the private messages again. Excluding those who flattered her, asked about the price, and chatted about wanting to be her apprentice, there were only three people who clearly asked her to help them pass the level.
Gu Nan replied to each letter one by one and waited for half an hour before someone replied.
After adding the contact information, confirming the price and clearance progress, Gu Nanqie's second account went online.
I don’t need Rejoice: [Boss, is that you? Boss, why did you choose this number? ]
GN: [It's me. This account is a bit lower level, so the chance of equipment dropping is higher.]
In the early days of the launch of "Gods of Extinction", there was a large-scale equipment giveaway. Accounts that cleared the game at a low level or were the first to clear the game were likely to encounter randomly dropped equipment. In the early days, these equipment were worthless and no one wanted them. In the later stages, the number of game players expanded to a certain level, and the company deliberately reduced the drop rate, so these things became rare and valuable.
I don’t need Rejoice: [! I understand, this game can be played this way]
Gu Nan entered the game.
"Gods of Extinction" has two confrontation modes, 5V5 and 1V1. The former is the mode played by most players, and the latter is a hell mode for fighting against gods, which will not be unlocked until the later stage.
Not many people play this game. Except for a few experienced players who have worked hard, most people play it poorly, with either awkward moves or poor coordination between teammates.
So Gu Nanyi joined the battle. His precise and sharp moves were like a sniper rifle mounted high up. The five people on the opposite side were like living targets running around in the wilderness.
Gu Nan controlled the character to rush out of the canyon, find the opponent, and start fighting.
He attacked one after another, and every move hit its target. In just a few minutes, Gu Nan led 4 people to complete the level.
All the assassins and nurses were useless, and some people didn't even meet Gu Nan and won without any effort.
The settlement page popped up, and the players who won easily or lost instantly couldn't even send out an exclamation mark to express their shock.
I don’t need Rejoice: [It’s over???]
GN: [Hmm]
I don’t need Rejoice:?
No, his character just ran out of the canyon and was looking for people! At least leave him a kill!
