To avoid the limelight, Xiang Wan hadn't logged into the Assassin account for two days. She quietly created a new account and wandered around the game with a female character, seemingly oblivious to anything significant. The world chat was quiet, with no rumors or gossip about the pro player circulating.
Xiang Wan was relieved. That evening, she logged into the assassin's account again, intending to take on some jobs. Unexpectedly, she received a private message from the expert: "Private PK tomorrow morning at 5 AM. Beat me, or else..."
After posting this, the "expert's" name went dark. Was this person waiting for her? Was this a threat? Otherwise? What else could they do, eat her through the screen?
After venting her anger, Xiang Wan still didn't dare to challenge the game master's bottom line. She was in the wrong first, and regardless of whether it was unintentional, an apology wouldn't be enough to dispel his displeasure. If it were her, she wouldn't let it go until the other person was banished from the game forever!
If she herself is like this, let alone the great god, we must find a way to get the great god to forgive her.
"He's incredibly handsome, are you there?"
The other party was clearly online but didn't reply, so Xiang Wan had to resort to a barrage of calls:
"Are you there? Give me a shout."
"Reply immediately, it's extremely urgent!"
"If you don't say anything, we'll expose our chat history!"
"Stop playing dead, I know you're here!"
"Little Handsome?"
"Incredibly handsome?"
"Is he handsome?"
Instead of saying anything, they're just sending a message in the world chat!
Right now, sitting miserably in front of the computer, watching Xiang Wan's barrage of questions, he didn't dare move a finger. Anyone would freeze if stared at by someone radiating coldness 24/7!
"Little Handsome?"
The person next to him narrowed his eyes and remained silent for a long time. When he finally spoke, the handsome man broke out in a cold sweat.
"Um, I, I can explain, really!"
He was so handsome he swore he had no intention of teaming up with Xiang Wan to trick him; it was just too unfortunate that Xiang Wan asked him the question when the great god was right next to her, and he was helpless about it.
"answer!"
The moment the expert spoke, even the incredibly handsome guy shuddered, his fingers trembling as he typed on the keyboard, making several mistakes in his reply.
"Me here"
"for"
"Oh, that's me."
"I myself"
Holy crap!
"I am here"
Xiang Wan was speechless. She ignored the above content and asked directly:
"Does the expert know about that?"
What are your plans?
"He challenged me to a duel, is he planning to get revenge?"
"That's not fair! It was clearly your suggestion; we're on the same side!"
"Are you there? Answer me!"
He's so incredibly handsome I wish I could disappear into a crack in the ground. The person in question is right next to him, and they're openly discussing this issue like this. Do they want to die even faster?
The incredibly handsome guy wanted to send a message to remind her, but the expert pushed him aside and started chatting with Xiang Wan.
He's not that kind of person.
"Really? Then why is he acting all mysterious?"
Xiang Wan wasn't entirely satisfied with the incredibly handsome answer. She wanted to get to the bottom of it. Knowing yourself and your enemy is the key to victory in every battle—oh, no, I mean, to be invincible in every battle!
The expert glanced coldly at the incredibly handsome guy, forcing him to stand a foot away, before replying, "Too much trouble!"
He was so cool pretending to be a quail; all I could do was silently light a candle for Xiang Wan in my heart.
"Oh, so you're explaining that he's still a primary school student?"
"Pfft!" The incredibly handsome guy couldn't help but almost spit out his saliva.
The expert glanced back, looking incredibly handsome, then silently took a few steps back, standing directly against the wall. His heart was churning with emotion: For a dignified, rich, and handsome game company executive, the chief planner, to be forced to stand in the corner of his office—there was no one else like him in the entire company.
"No, he's already an adult." The expert continued typing.
"So, when he grows up, he'll be called Pikachu?"
Xiang Wan persisted in asking this question, so the expert had no choice but to continue explaining: "It was chosen by a friend."
"What a rip-off!"
"Um."
"Then you two must have a very good relationship!"
The expert glanced at the incredibly handsome guy and quietly replied, "Yeah, he'll be standing in the corner for a month."
Xiang Wan was so shocked her jaw dropped to the floor. "You're not even an adult yet?"
"Adults doing this?"
"Okay, why do I feel like this is bullying a minor?"
"???"
"Little brother, could you reveal some information about the expert?"
"Hmm?" The expert's lips curled up slightly. "You're very interested in him?"
Isn't that obvious? How can you survive in the gaming industry after offending someone like that? You have to be interested, otherwise how will you appease him?
"Provide me with information, and I'll give you a set of illusionist's special equipment. How about that?"
"Trying to bribe me?"
"Hmm, a blatant bribe, want it or not?"
The expert's expression turned cold, and he gave the incredibly handsome guy another cold look, replying, "Wouldn't it be better to just ask him directly?"
The incredibly handsome guy, who was silently facing the wall, looked completely bewildered and somewhat confused.
Will he answer?
"If you ask, he will tell you."
Xiang Wan didn't quite understand what "incredibly handsome" meant. Was the great god really that easy to talk to?
"...I'm not too sure, and besides, he's often not online. The only time he's online is when you told me."
The expert glanced at the incredibly handsome guy again, this time without any coldness. The incredibly handsome guy also consciously squatted in the corner and started drawing circles.
"He's occasionally online around 9 p.m.
"For example, right now, right?"
"Yes, ask away!"
The expert silently logged into his account on the computer next to him.
"Thanks, here's the set, please accept it."
"Need not!"
The package was rejected, and Xiang Wan was about to resend it when she saw the name of the "expert" light up. She was so shocked she almost dropped her keyboard. She wasn't prepared to face the expert at all. What should she do? If she pretended for a power outage now, would it be too late?
Thinking it over, Xiang Wan unplugged the power cord, clutching her pounding heart, and it took her a long time to calm down.
Wait a minute, why did she unplug the power? Oh wait, next time she could just quit the game, right? The pro player doesn't know she wanted to ask him a question!
Calming down, Xiang Wan plugged the power back in, silently logged into her account, and continued to ask the incredibly handsome question.
"How are you feeling right now, Master?"
"very good!"
"If I greet him, will I get instantly killed?"
"He clearly distinguishes between public and private matters!"
He then delivered another cold blow to the handsome guy, saying, "Only those who accept bribes get instantly killed."
Xiang Wan was relieved. Although he was incredibly handsome and seemed to be underage, the information he provided was indeed true. She decided to trust him this once and maybe it would appease the great god.
At this moment, Xiang Wan was unaware that because of this decision, the days that followed were indeed as she had feared, and she was tortured to the point of death, even more so than she had imagined!
