Julian felt he was being targeted.
From the moment he entered the game and saw the other six players, he realized that he was the only one from the Federal Military Academy.
Wow, isn't this the prelude to getting ganged up on?
The worst part is that he saw Lu Xiaoyao again!
Why! ?
What a tragic fate!
Of course, it wasn't just Julian who harbored resentment towards Lu Xiaoyao; Lou Jia, who had just been harassed a few days earlier, also spotted Lu Xiaoyao immediately upon entering.
Then he revealed a look that was almost identical to Julian's.
It's you!
It's you!
It's you again!
[Speaking of which... don't you guys think there are two players staring at our girl the whole time?]
[Huh? Where is he? Wow, he looks so handsome! My goodness, has my daughter become this charming?]
[Hey, calm down, I just don't get the feeling that the other person's expression when looking at their daughter is one of liking...]
[Yeah, yeah, why do I feel like I want to beat my daughter up?]
Lu Xiaoyao is the only one whose live stream viewers start worrying about her from the moment they enter the game.
"Seriously? My daughter hasn't done anything wrong, has she?"
No, my daughter didn't have many highlight moments in the game, but she did have quite a few videos of messing things up...
[Emmm, guys, do you remember when we first became fans of our favorite streamer? Wasn't she famous for tricking a certain company's streamer?]
Oh, and I remember...
In no time, the comments section became a guide to the people Lu Xiaoyao had intentionally or unintentionally messed up since she started streaming. Mingmei watched for a long time and couldn't help but twitch her lips.
I'm sure Da Yao must have had a lot to worry about that Lu Xiaoyao is still alive.
Standing in the luxurious kitchen, Mingmei looked at the other players who had entered the game through the live stream backstage. Apart from Julian and Lou Jia, who clearly didn't have a good impression of Lu Xiaoyao, the others weren't much better.
The only one whose feelings towards Lu Xiaoyao were somewhat positive was Zhen Po from the previous game; after they left the game, they somehow managed to play together.
She even saw him give Lu Xiaoyao snacks twice when they met offline, but unfortunately, they were just friends.
Besides Zhen Po, there's also Bai Xiao, but Bai Xiao's feelings for Lu Xiaoyao are more complicated.
Lu Xiaoyao is obedient and innocent, but the game is really a pain _(：3」∠)_
Mingmei looked at Bai Xiao, who was standing next to Lu Xiaoyao, and a hint of despair flashed in her eyes.
The remaining people were one unfamiliar face and another person who looked extremely familiar to her—Mu Chen.
Although he stood there smiling at everyone, no one within a five-meter radius of Mu Chen dared to approach him.
Because if anyone tries to get close, Mu Chen will open his smiling eyes and give them a fierce look that says "Get the hell away from me," which will scare them so much that they won't even be able to say hello.
That guy is terrifying!
Looking at Mu Chen in the camera lens, Mingmei recalled the scene of her godfather causing a "big fuss" a few days ago. Now, whenever Mingmei sees Mu Chen, she feels all sorts of awkwardness, embarrassment, and a tiny bit of nervousness and joy.
"call--"
Mingmei took a deep breath, pulling her attention away from the live stream.
This time, her apparent identity is that of a cook in a duke's household, and she is currently preparing food with the other cooks in the castle kitchen.
This naturally includes her boxed lunch.
Mingmei began to browse through the story of "The Duke's Legacy" in her mind. There was no supernatural element, and no undercover agent with an identity that could not be revealed. Therefore, the script that Mingmei received was quite comprehensive.
At least this time, she doesn't have to pretend to be blind, nor does she have to participate in the storyline with the players.
It feels so good to have the script in my hands again!
The castle was filled with the aroma of food. After handing over the dishes they had prepared to the servants, the cooks chatted amongst themselves.
Cook A: "It's gotten quite deserted here since the Duke passed away~"
Cook B: "Yes, I heard there should be a new duke in the next few days, right? Didn't the butler say he would make the best and most abundant food to entertain these... illegitimate children... ah, children?"
As if realizing that her words might offend the future duke, the cook carefully considered her words.
Chef C: "Who says otherwise! Hey Mingming, what dish did you make today?"
Distracted and eavesdropping, Mingmei suddenly heard someone call her name and, following her own lines, said, "Lunchbox."
"Hmm? Boxed lunches..." After saying that, the cooks looked curiously at the food in the brightly colored and exquisitely plated boxed lunches.
One of the cooks, with her flaxen braids, said to the person next to her, "I heard that Mingming is from a great country in the east. The Duke brought her back when he accompanied the Emperor on his eastern expedition. I heard that she cooked for the Emperor there, and her food was delicious~ It's a pity that the Duke only let her cook for him alone each time, so we've never had a chance to try her food..."
"That must be delicious too." Another cook interrupted the first cook, her gaze shifting to Mingmei, whose black hair and black eyes were a rare sight in Ouzhou.
There are also rumors that the deceased duke almost married this cook!
Upon learning of her character's identity and this strange, scandalous affair, Mingmei gave a speechless, forced smile.
