After his insomnia, which had plagued him for more than half a year, was cured, Qin Yuanbai no longer craved sleep.
Every night when he should have been asleep, he would log into the game where he met Yunqing, hoping to meet her.
That evening, Yun Qing opened the game again. She now had nearly six figures in savings and could relax for a while.
Looking through my friends list, Cheng Yi'an wasn't online. Looks like I'll have to play solo tonight.
Suddenly, an invitation popped up on the screen.
"Who is this person?" Yun Qing muttered to herself as she lay on the bed, seemingly having no recollection of him at all.
"I'll pass and go back to being a player. I haven't played for at least a month or two, so who knows what my skill level is now? It wouldn't be good if I lost points because of it."
However, after being refused, the person persisted and sent another invitation.
Yun Qing could only enter the room temporarily and typed, "Who are you? Why do you keep inviting me?"
"Ahem." Unexpectedly, the person turned on their microphone: "Yun Qing, I am Qin Yuanbai. Have you forgotten? We became acquainted through the game."
"It's you." Yun Qing also turned on her microphone; "Sorry, we've been in contact via WeChat since we added each other, and I didn't remember your ID."
"It's nothing. I just happened to get off work early tonight, so I was planning to relax a bit. I didn't expect you to be here too."
Yun Qing carefully recalled the scene when she met him. Qin Yuanbai probably wasn't a bad guy, otherwise she wouldn't have agreed to add him as a friend.
"Let's duo queue then. What position do you want to play? I'll adjust the pre-selection."
"You play whatever you like, don't worry about me, I can fill in for you."
"Okay, then I'll play as a mage."
The two then played several rounds together.
To Yunqing's surprise, Qin Yuanbai's skills were actually quite good. Although he couldn't compare to Cheng Yi'an, he could still carry the team when he got a hero he was familiar with.
However, after they won three games in a row, it seemed like they were matched with bizarre teammates by the system.
With mages playing support and marksmen going for the duel role, the lineup is clearly a no-go for a 6-minute surrender.
Despite Yun Qing and Qin Yuanbai's best efforts, they still lost, and the star they had finally managed to climb back up fell back down.
Yun Qing is tired and wants to destroy the world.
This damn game is getting harder and harder to play; she's thought about quitting so many times. If it weren't for the huge drop in account prices, and her reluctance to give up those beautiful skins, she would have quit long ago.
After losing three games, Qin Yuanbai noticed that Yun Qing was in low spirits. He stopped playing the game and instead asked cautiously, "Yun Qing, are you going to sleep now?"
Yun Qing tossed and turned in bed. Hearing Qin Yuanbai's voice, she said irritably, "No, I'm too angry to sleep. Why are these game planners so mean? Do they like being criticized so much?"
Qin Yuanbai didn't know how to answer. He didn't play games very often, so he didn't have any deep feelings about it.
"How about we play some other games? There's a new game that's been released recently and it seems to be getting pretty good reviews."
"That's enough." Yun Qing didn't want to continue playing. "My hands are a little tired. Let's stop here for today."
"Okay, goodbye then."
"goodbye."
After closing the game, Yun Qing was still angry. She checked the time and it was past ten o'clock.
It doesn't seem that late. Should we go to the night market for something to eat and soothe our wounded hearts? But she's so tired. She's wearing her pajamas and is too lazy to change. Besides, there must be long lines at the food stalls in the night market at this hour.
Forget it, I'll go tomorrow. With that thought, Yun Qing ultimately stayed in bed and didn't get up.
However, a few minutes later, the doorbell suddenly rang.
"Ding-dong—"
"Who is it, disturbing my sleep so late?" Yun Qing really couldn't imagine who would come looking for her; they must have gone to the wrong place.
Climbing out of her warm bed and putting on her slippers, her anger reached its peak.
If the people outside don't have anything important to say, she'll definitely give them a good scolding.
Upon reaching the entrance, Yun Qing did not open the door rashly, her mind, which had been clouded by the game, cleared up for a moment.
She belatedly felt scared. She was all alone at home. What if the people outside were bad people?
Yun Qing took a deep breath and quietly opened the peephole.
The corridor outside was dimly lit. She squinted and saw a blurry face through a small hole.
Huh? It looks like Qin Yuanbai, but I'm not sure. Let me take another look.
Great, she confirmed it was him.
Relieved, Yun Qing opened the door.
"Hey! You'd better give me a reasonable explanation. What are you doing at my doorstep so late at night instead of sleeping?"
When Qin Yuanbai saw her, a delighted smile appeared on his face. He pulled a bag out from behind him like a treasure: "This is for you."
"What is this?" Yun Qing's anger paused, and she hesitantly took it.
When she opened the tightly sealed bag and saw what was inside, her frustration vanished instantly, and her voice was filled with surprise.
How did you know I wanted to eat spicy crayfish?
Qin Yuanbai followed her in, closed the door behind him, and seeing how happy she was, he couldn't help but show a doting expression on his face.
"The guide I read online said that it's bad for girls to be angry before bed. It also said that if there's something that can't be resolved, a meal of spicy crayfish can solve it, and if that still doesn't work, add a small cake."
Yun Qing found it amusing and teased, "I never thought that a young and promising CEO like you would read all that random stuff online."
Seeing that she was in a good mood, Qin Yuanbai rarely retorted, "How is that nonsense? As long as it can make you happy, I can treat it as the golden rule."
