The Ji family.
When Jiang Nian returned home, her older brother was still working overtime at the company, her grandfather had already taken his medicine and gone to sleep, and Grandpa Si and that Si Boye had already left.
She thought of the man's breath that was close to her back today, and the nonchalant yet alluring smile on his face.
Jiang Nian frowned and took a deep breath to suppress the inexplicable irritation.
So after taking a shower, she leaned back in her chair and opened [Sunset Survival], a game she hadn't played in a long time.
Sunset Survival is a very popular tactical competitive mobile game.
Each battle involves one hundred people being dropped onto a deserted island. Weapons and equipment such as knives, guns, and bulletproof vests can only be found on the map after the game starts, or obtained by killing other players.
Without teams, only one out of a hundred players can survive in a single game.
Jiang Nian plays this game in her spare time.
Although she's not very good at this type of game, she still holds the title of the second-highest single-kill king in the entire server, with a record of 48 kills in a single game.
Only one person consistently outperformed her and killed one more person; this person was known as God Ye.
As soon as Jiang Nian logged on, he received a private message.
[Ye: Want to play a game?]
Jiang Nian looked at the character "Ye" and became increasingly annoyed with it.
Then, her slender, pale fingers typed a single word: [Come.]
In this game, as soon as the players started, they saw that the number one player in the entire server, Ye, and the number two player in the entire server, Jin, were both there.
Everyone was initially shocked, then began to complain bitterly.
When playing games, encountering either of these two is a sure way to get killed and crushed, let alone encountering both at once.
It's absolutely brutal.
Unfortunately, once you start a game, you can't quit; you have no choice but to grit your teeth and keep going.
As soon as the message was posted on the forum, a large number of netizens came to watch the expert's operation, and in a short while, the number of people watching in real time on the public screen exceeded three thousand.
Jiang Nian started killing people with his bare hands as soon as he landed, before he even picked up any equipment. Ye over there was also getting headshots one by one.
The two masters were so powerful it was terrifying.
The onlookers were all glad they hadn't joined in; watching a pro player dominate a newbie was quite enjoyable. If they were the ones getting dominated, it would be agonizing.
They fought until the very end, and out of a hundred people, only Jiang Nian and Ye remained.
This was the second time Jiang Nian had accepted Ye's invitation. Last time, it was also the two of them left in the end, and they didn't even exchange a word before simultaneously throwing away their weapons.
They were perfectly in sync.
For players of their caliber, using weapons to fight is too boring; one-on-one combat is enough, just watching their fighting skills and techniques.
Today is the same situation as that day.
When Jiang Nian and Ye stood face to face, the other person threw away their weapon first.
Everyone thought that Jiang Nian would throw away his weapon and fight Ye God one-on-one, just like last time.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Nian pulled out a laser cannon the next second.
They kicked them out on the spot.
With a loud bang, Ye, the number one player in the entire server, was instantly blown to smithereens.
The game ended so abruptly that it caught everyone off guard.
The audience was still in shock when the screen displayed "[GAME OVER]".
The entire chat is filled with messages:
[...]
[...]
[Mom, what's wrong with Jin today? He's so menacing, it's scary...]
Jiang Nian is a randomly created male character in the game, and no one knows that she is a girl.
On the other side, Si Boye watched helplessly as his head was blown off by the laser cannon from the other side.
After the game ended, I sent a question mark.
[Ye: ? Did I offend you?]
The other side replied very quickly.
[Jin: Sorry, I have a grudge against people whose names contain the character "YE," I couldn't help myself.]
[Ye: What do you have a grudge against in your name? I'm changing my name.]
It was rare to encounter an opponent who was evenly matched with him in the game, and Si Boye was surprisingly patient.
I dragged the mouse over the ID field, intending to change my name to [Bo].
The next second, the other party replied: [Those with "Bo" in their name, kill them all.]
...
Wasn't this strike incredibly precise?
This made Si Boye wonder if the man opposite him knew his true identity and was saying this on purpose.
[Jin: I admit I wasn't very martial today. Next time, I'll let you bombard me with a cannon. Bye.]
The other party didn't even wait for his reply. After saying they were going offline, their profile picture turned gray.
interesting.
Si Boye stubbed out his cigarette.
He didn't know why, but he always felt that the person on the other end of the line gave him a somewhat familiar feeling.
He leaned back in his chair.
The handsome man in a dark brown striped suit sitting on the sofa next to him pushed up his glasses, put down the documents in his hand, and looked up.
The tone was businesslike and official.
“The girl you asked me to investigate is definitely not an ordinary high school student. Apart from the fact that her information is blocked, her past experiences, identity, and financial situation are all blank. She is also on the government’s whitelist.”
Si Boye played with the wine glass with his well-defined fingers.
Seemingly having anticipated everything, he lazily said, "The one who can make me fall in love at first sight is naturally no ordinary person."
“You’d better be careful,” Fu Jingyi frowned. “You killed six people in a minute on our first meeting. Be careful that one day you, little rabbit, get pissed off, and I’ll shoot you dead too.”
"No, it won't,"
Si Boye's gaze was indifferent. Recalling Jiang Nian's quiet and obedient demeanor in front of Grandpa Ji, he narrowed his eyes and said, "She just looks fierce."
Fu Jinyi, as always, remained aloof and stood up: "Then I'm leaving. My cufflinks will be converted into cash and returned along with the six million in my account."
Si Boye waved his hand lazily.
Just then, the Si family's butler knocked on the door.
"Young Master, Jiang Sheng from Shenglan Real Estate and his wife have arrived. They said they brought their daughter to visit. Madam isn't home. Would you like to see them, or send them away?"
Si Boye's eyes swept over him with a cold indifference.
Jiang Sheng of Shenglan Real Estate.
The little rabbit's scumbag father who abandoned her when she was a child and then sold his own daughter to a dead man for five million?
The so-called daughter is probably Jiang Nian's stepsister.
He didn't even bother to lift his eyelids, and coldly said, "Tell them to get lost."
At this moment, Jiang Sheng, along with Chen Fulan and Jiang Ranran, stood outside the Si family's gate, his heart pounding with excitement.
