Chapter 33 Chapter 33 Chu Lingyu is experiencing a...
Chu Lingyu was experiencing something that he couldn't understand. It was said that the person who had been looking forward to his birthday for a long time was now reaching out to him for a gift.
"It's my birthday." He emphasized, "Shouldn't you be the one giving me a present?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the person in front of him showing an expression of disbelief and sadness.
The player was shocked, and her worldview was shaken. The game character was unwilling to give her a gift on her birthday?
The sky is falling, she is going to make a fuss!
Looking at the girl's expression that seemed to be extremely sad, Chu Lingyu, who was experiencing such a thing for the first time, was suddenly at a loss. He didn't mean that, nor did he want to urge her to give him a gift.
Well, it was actually quite normal for her to ask him for a gift.
"I'm not..." Chu Lingyu clenched his fingers, pulled out a small box from the pocket of his school uniform, and casually handed it to Wen Qian. "This is for you."
The player who had been waiting for a long time but didn't receive any gifts and was about to start looting the NPCs put down his hand as if nothing had happened.
Isn’t there a gift here? It turns out that the previous plot is just to enhance the sense of immersion.
Haha, the plan was misunderstood again, but this was his own doing.
Wen Qian took the gift and lowered his head to open the small gift box which was only the size of her palm.
Two small goldfish earrings are hung on the black velvet lining. The main stone has intricate facets, which bring out colorful fire under the sunlight.
Chu Lingyu turned his face away and watched Wen Qian's reaction out of the corner of his eye.
He didn't care much about the accessories girls wore, but when he saw this pair of earrings by chance the day before yesterday, he subconsciously thought of Wen Qian.
The little goldfish hanging on the earrings dangled back and forth, looking a bit noisy.
Just like her.
By the time he realized it, he had already bought the pair of earrings. As for why they were wearing them, well, he just put them in his pocket and forgot to take them out.
Chu Lingyu, who put it aside once a day, looked at Wen Qian as if nothing had happened.
After a closer look, he realized that the girl actually didn't have pierced ears. He pursed his lips and said, "Forget it, I'll change one for you..."
"Why do you want to change it? I like it very much!" Wen Qian interrupted him.
When she saw the earrings, the first thing she noticed was not the gem itself, which was the least meaningful thing for players.
She still has hundreds of gold coins in her backpack, but if she takes them out, they can only be used as a few hundred dollars.
The game's redemption mechanism is a mystery.
Even if you receive diamonds and gold coins as daily benefits in the game, you may not even be able to afford a dress in the end.
Haha, players have long been accustomed to it.
It doesn’t matter whether the accessory itself is valuable or not, what matters is that it is not an ordinary prop.
[Goldfish Earrings [Special Equipment] Speed +3]
It turned out to be a high-level equipment with an attribute value of +3, which is worth at least three sets of school uniforms!
The players were shocked by the NPC's generosity.
"You know what." Wen Qian held Chu Lingyu's hand, "For this gift, I am willing to run ten consecutive tasks for you, even if there is no reward for the task."
If you really want her to run, then let's deal with it separately.
Chu Lingyu bent his fingertips unnaturally: "Whatever you want, I just picked it casually anyway."
"Do you like playing games?" He seemed to often hear some gaming terms from her mouth.
"Yes, I love it so much that I can play it for twenty-four hours a day."
I didn't expect the NPC would give such a good gift. Wen Qian looked at his little eggshell and felt a little guilty.
Decision made, give two!
"This is for you." Wen Qian carefully took out two small eggshells.
The surface of the eggshell is very regular, as if the existence of the egg inside has been directly erased, leaving only the complete shell. Therefore, you have to be careful when taking it out, otherwise it will break.
"This is my birthday present for you." Wen Qian carefully reminded, "It's easy to break, so don't use too much force to pick it up."
"What is this?" Chu Lingyu took the small eggshell and was stunned for a moment. "Is this the birthday present you prepared for me?"
After what just happened, he thought Wen Qian would not give him a birthday present, but he didn't expect that she actually prepared one.
But he didn't recognize what it was. It looked a bit like an egg.
It shouldn't be, eggs aren't that light, so what could it be...
“It’s an eggshell.”
Chu Lingyu was silent for two seconds, then repeated, "Eggshell?"
"Of course it's not an ordinary eggshell. It's very important to me, and I've only given it to you." Wen Qian said solemnly.
How can the first achievement in a career not be important?
"You can use it for viewing." Wen Qian thought for a moment and added, "Of course, you can also use it to make crispy tomato and egg crumbs."
"I can give you the recipe if you want."
The alarm sent by his sixth sense prevented Chu Lingyu from asking about the recipe.
He bent his fingers and loosely held the two small eggshells, looking at Wen Qian who was muttering about her relationship with the eggshells. When he heard her say that the eggshells were very important to her, his heart moved.
"Thank you." Chu Lingyu glanced at the eggshell, "I like the birthday present you gave me very much."
"I'm glad I like it!" Wen Qian looked at his backpack inventory excitedly.
That’s great! It seems I won’t have to worry about the birthdays of all the game characters anymore.
This is the strength of Inventory 99+!
【Achievement——Confidant
Detailed explanation: Send a gift based on the NPC's preferences
Reward: Experience +30
Wen Qian, who was pleasantly surprised, praised Chu Lingyu's taste and decided to take this opportunity to try the friend request again.
"Chu Lingyu, are we friends now?" Xiao Wen looked at Chu Lingyu and sent a friend request.
"Do you think I would give gifts to strangers casually?" Chu Lingyu raised his eyebrows and looked at her.
Wen Qian just smiled when the system's notification sounded.
[The other party has rejected your friend request]
"Wow." Wen Qian deadpanned, "Student Chu, you're truly unpredictable."
Why did this sound so sarcastic? Chu Lingyu paused.
And why did you call him Chu again? Hadn’t you already started calling him by his name?
——————
After Zhou Zhu accepted his friend request, Wen Qian, who thought the system had returned to normal, once again suspected that there was a bug in the game.
No matter how you look at it, Chu Lingyu doesn't seem to want to be friends with her!
Wen Qian opened the system panel and was about to report a bug again when he saw a small red dot light up on the system mailbox.
[Game activity survey——Please fill out the questionnaire!
As a player, what type of game activities do you hope to experience next? (Choose two from four)
A Intelligence point related
B Agility related
C Physical Strength Related
D-Force related
Can I specify an activity?
Wen Qian fell into deep thought. She had enough intelligence points for the time being, and her physical strength had been increased once before. However, this strength point had never been able to trigger related tasks, and her agility was also a bit lacking.
After consideration, Wen Qian chose strength and agility.
The system panel changed and two options popped up again.
[Activities you wish to participate in
Sports Day
Equestrian competitions
Sailing Race
This time, Wen Qian locked in on the sports meet without even thinking about it.
Are you kidding? She hasn't even seen the others, so why should she consider this?
It’s just the sports meet, no changes.
[Sports meet preparations in progress, please stay tuned]
The efficiency of the game is beyond the players' imagination. As soon as they finish filling out the questionnaire, the game starts to act immediately.
The next day, news spread throughout the college that a sports meet was about to be held.
When Wen Qian walked into the school gate, he heard many people talking about this topic. When he entered the classroom, his classmates were also talking about this matter.
"Sports meeting, why is there such a thing?"
"I don't understand what the academy is thinking. It seems like there has never been such an activity before?"
"I heard they wanted us to exercise. How annoying! We had equestrian lessons, so why did they choose a sports meet?"
"This is my first time participating in this kind of event. Has the academy never held one before?"
"Never heard of it."
There is no sports meet at Holy Thorn Academy, so it's obviously strange to suddenly talk about holding a school sports meet, but Wen Qian doesn't care.
Players want it, players get it.
So what if it didn’t exist before? After she filled out the questionnaire, it appeared now.
Lin Huai was also very curious about this matter. It’s not that he had never participated in it before. He also transferred from another school and was naturally not unfamiliar with sports meets.
He just found it hard to imagine letting these young men and women in the academy participate in activities like running competitions.
Are they really willing to participate?
"Wen Qian, you don't seem curious about this at all?" He looked at his deskmate, but found that Wen Qian seemed to not care about this at all.
"I'm not curious at all," the player, who was writing furiously, said naturally, "Because I was the one who suggested it."
Lin Huai:?
He looked at the paper where Wen Qian was writing and found that his deskmate was holding a selection form for class members to apply to participate in the sports meet.
There is also a class roster on hand.
He took a quick look and saw that the registration column for the 3,000-meter long-distance race was already filled with people.
Everyone's name looked familiar - it seemed like everyone had said something bad about their deskmate.
"Strange, there don't seem to be enough candidates." Wen Qian frowned as he looked at the project that was still mostly empty. "Is there really that few students in our class?"
The event is about to start, and selecting people is naturally a part of the game activity. When Wen Qian stepped into the classroom, she received a notification from the game asking her to select candidates to participate in the sports meeting.
Now that it’s written like this, no one in their class can report a full project.
There aren't that many projects. Is it because there are too few people in their class?
"...It's not too few." Lin Huai was silent for two seconds, then said politely, "If you're willing to remove a few of the twenty names from the 3,000-meter race, you won't have to worry about no one participating in the remaining events."
It is hard to imagine how Wen Qian managed to fill in twenty names in a column that can only hold three names at most.
Is there room for so many people on the runway?
In fact, there was no space to write it down, but the stubborn player opened the system background to fill out the form and stuffed the names in one by one.
"There's nothing we can do about it." The player sighed.
Just when Lin Huai thought that Wen Qian was going to remove a few names, he saw his deskmate neatly rewrite the names of those people in each column below.
Three thousand meters, two thousand meters, one thousand meters, four hundred meters, one hundred meters...
The number of participants in each project starts from 20 people.
Rose Class, what a class that loves sports.
Lin Huai slowly closed his eyes. He no longer wanted to ask how his deskmate got the right to choose people.
At this point, he only had one thing to say.
"Don't write about me, thank you."
