Then, she saw a beautiful black-haired woman, half a head shorter than herself, standing in front of her and looking up at her.
The other person had long, loose, black, slightly wavy hair that reached their waist, and was wearing a light blue school uniform from a specific era in the game.
Ignoring her aloof yet delicate features that don't quite match her height, to Lu Xiaoyao, she's practically a giant version of a figurine!
Biu!
As if accompanied by special effects gunshots, Lu Xiaoyao's face suddenly turned red in front of Mingmei, leaving Mingmei, who had come forward to ask about buying boxed lunches, completely bewildered.
She only asked two questions, why such a big reaction?
"Oh my god! Sister! You're so cute! How can you be so adorable?!"
In the interstellar era, even the average height of girls has reached 1.8 meters. Lu Xiaoyao's height of 1.75 meters is already considered to be below the average. However, she never expected that she would meet another "cute" girl who is half a head shorter than her!
Mingmei, who always thought of herself as a cool and aloof mature woman, suddenly felt a chill run down her spine when faced with the cute girl who suddenly became infatuated with her.
She couldn't help but take two steps back, only to see the other person follow suit in the same way.
Immediately afterwards, she felt this bold player rub her face!
Bright and beautiful: ? ? ?
Is this the exuberance and passion of the interstellar people?
"Waaaaah, it feels so good! Ahhhhh, so cute and adorable! Is this what a naturally innocent and adorable girl is like!?"
Naturally...naive?
With a blank expression, Mingmei tilted her head slightly, and a small tuft of hair on the top of her head seemed to be swaying slightly, causing the player in front of her to let out another "Ahhhhhh".
Seeing the player in front of her lose control of their emotions, jumping around on the spot with a flushed face for a while, Mingmei belatedly realized another problem—
She was just teased, right?
=. =
"I'm not a cute girl, miss. Would you like to buy a boxed lunch?"
Mingmei put aside her personal emotions and continued to deliver her own NPC lines in a serious manner.
That's right, Mingmei is an NPC in the game, a mysterious merchant played by a real person.
Although Mingmei had a stern face and her words sounded suspicious to a normal player, Lu Xiaoyao was a newbie!
She's always been a happy, clueless newbie!
In Lu Xiaoyao's eyes, Mingmei's unexpected charm and cuteness were simply delightful!
"Why are you buying boxed lunches, sis? Are you playing a character who sells boxed lunches?"
"I don't……"
"Ah! So, after the official website updated the game yesterday, there are more characters in the game who can solve puzzles, right?"
"No……"
"Hey! This game has been changed so weirdly, why are players selling boxed lunches here?"
Mingmei: "..." So that's why! I'm not a player!
Mingmei, who hadn't been able to get a word in edgewise, was now holding a boxed lunch and suddenly didn't know what to say to the other person.
[Rule #1 for Special NPCs: NPCs are prohibited from revealing their true identity to players; all actions must be initiated by the players themselves.]
The NPC character assistance system "Guigui" promptly sent a reminder to Mingmei, which made the already taciturn Mingmei even more at a loss for words.
It seems the person in front of us isn't the one destined to discover your true identity as a mysterious merchant. Sister, let's change targets!
Gui Gui sighed, wanting to comfort Ming Mei, who seemed to have encountered a Waterloo on her first day on the job.
Don't call me "sister."
Okay~
With a cold, serious little face, Mingmei looked at Lu Xiaoyao again, hearing her still babbling on and on.
"Let's go, let's go! It seems my character's storyline is about to begin. I'm going to defy my parents' arranged marriage and personally go to the Zhang family to break off the engagement!"
Hearing Lu Xiaoyao say that she was leaving to follow her own character's storyline, Mingmei secretly breathed a sigh of relief and planned to leave on her own, and then find a destined person who could trigger her true identity.
However, it was clear that the other party did not give her such an opportunity.
Looking down, Mingmei saw that her arm had been grabbed by Lu Xiaoyao's player—no, wait, it had been held by the other player.
"You'll come with me, and I'll go with you after I finish my storyline, okay?"
Lu Xiaoyao really treated her like a player.
"I have no plot."
Mingmei politely declined in a very serious manner.
I've made it so obvious, shouldn't this young lady let me off the hook?
"Oh, that's perfect! Let's go together then, you can accompany me through the storyline~"
Bright and beautiful: ? ? ? ?
Before she could even give a direct refusal, Mingmei was forcibly dragged away by Lu Xiaoyao, who was half a head taller than her, by linking arms with her and heading towards the location where her storyline was triggered.
Meanwhile, Mingmei, who usually has a somewhat expressionless face, looked at the passersby and NPCs around her with eyes full of rejection, as if trying to ask for help!
But everyone just turned a blind eye!
Didn't we agree that NPCs would be intelligent?
Why don't we see her being "kidnapped" here?
Mingmei: [Ghost! Help me! Help me! Help me!]
System Ghost: [Why don't you just give in to her? =. =]
Bright and beautiful: ? ? ?
