Things about spending money on games (5)
The gentle and pleasant voice was intoxicating. Shen Tang looked up and was stunned for a moment.
The man in front of him was somewhat similar to his character in the game. His angular face was shaded by light and shadow under his drooping hair, and his fair and slightly fragile face was decorated with a pair of bright peach blossom eyes.
There was a hint of caution in those light brown amber pupils, and his beautiful thin lips were slightly pursed.
Shen Tang looked at this seemingly thin man, whose muscular outlines were faintly visible under his light-colored clothes. If he was not wearing a gray coat, his figure, which was obviously thin when dressed and muscular when undressed, would definitely attract a lot of attention.
She stared at the man's body so directly that the other party obviously noticed it.
“Does it look good?”
Shen Tang was still immersed in it and couldn't help but nodded, "She has a good figure."
A laughter as warm as spring water slowly came out from the man's throat.
"Oh no," Shen Tang suddenly stood up and finally realized what she was doing. Her cheeks flushed for a moment. Why did she think the male lead looked at her like a fool? Shen Tang patted her cheeks guiltily to wake herself up. She almost lost her character.
The woman pretended to adjust her aquamarine dress and tucked her hair behind her ears. She smiled and said, "I think I look familiar because you've seen someone wearing something similar before. In fact, we've never seen each other before."
As Shen Tang spoke, his eyebrows curved at the same time, and his round eyes were filled with gentle starlight, as if this person should be so gentle. But Yan Lin always had an inexplicable emotion, as if the person in front of him was not supposed to be like this.
"Miss, your coffee," the waiter, attracted by the good looks of this handsome man and beautiful woman, came over with a tray. When placing the coffee on the table, she couldn't help but glance at the two of them a few more times, wondering in her heart, are all couples so good-looking nowadays?
Shen Tang added some sugar cubes into the coffee out of boredom, then stirred the coffee below with his fingers. Seeing that Yan Lin was still standing in front of him, he had no choice but to raise his other hand and tug at the other's sleeve.
"Are you waiting for someone? If so, just sit here. I'm waiting for someone too." The woman opened her moist red lips slightly, and saw the other person sitting opposite her with eyes wide open like a puppy, the only thing missing was a big tail to wag at people.
Yan Lin couldn't help but look at Shen Tang's slender white fingers holding the spoon. Such delicate and small hands must be the treasure of the family. Then he cursed himself in his heart with some spit. Such a gentle and well-behaved girl should be protected, but his initial chat was a bit rude.
Shen Tang had no idea what the male protagonist was thinking in his heart. She looked at her watch again and again. Eight minutes had passed, and this girl still had no concept of time at all.
Maybe it's because she has been in the time and space management department for too long, and every mission starts on time, which has made her develop a habit of doing things on time, so now she still has a headache when she meets people who have no concept of time.
"Miss, are you waiting for your boyfriend?" Yan Lin hesitated for a while and quietly clenched one hand. Although she knew it might be a bit abrupt to ask this, the voice in her heart kept shouting to get closer to her.
Boyfriend? Shen Tang was silent for a moment when she heard the word. She had been single since birth, so if she really wanted a boyfriend, he definitely hadn't been born yet. As for whether the female supporting actress in the plot had a boyfriend, that was not her business.
"That's not the case. I just made an appointment to meet an ordinary friend." Shen Tang fixed his eyes on the coffee in front of him and touched the wall of the cup with his fingertips. After waiting for a long time, the coffee had become a little cold.
"You are so curious about me, so who are you meeting? Is it your girlfriend?"
After saying this, Yan Lin's body tensed up and he nervously explained, "No, I don't have a girlfriend! Don't get me wrong!"
"If there is no, then there is no, why are you reacting so strongly?" Shen Tang took a sip of coffee, and his long eyelashes fluttered slightly. It was just a joke, but why was the male protagonist so nervous as if he was interrogating him.
Yan Lin was stunned for a moment. Yes, why did he want to let the person in front of him know that he didn't have a girlfriend so urgently? Yan Lin was depressed for a while, until he saw Shen Tang answered a call, and then he came back to his senses.
"Tangtang, I'm sorry, I just had some trouble here and couldn't get to the cafe, but I'm now in the jewelry store we agreed on earlier. I'm waiting for you here, please come quickly!"
A cute female voice came faintly from the other end of the phone, and Yan Lin's eyebrows slightly frowned. Is she leaving?
After answering the phone, Shen Tang sighed heavily. She had been waiting here for a long time, but the heroine went directly to the jewelry store. If she had known this would happen, she would have left home later.
She took out a mirror from her bag, touched up her makeup, and stood up from her seat. Her petite figure was about to walk towards the store entrance.
"Miss, I don't even know your name!" Yan Lin blurted out the words in his heart in a hurry, and his face turned slightly red.
Shen Tang took a few steps and then slowly stopped. She turned her head and smiled at Yan Lin, "My name is Lin Tang, Lin for forest, Tang for crabapple."
"Lin Tang..." Yan Lin chewed on these two words countless times. Is this her name? It sounds so nice.
"I've already told you my name. As a courtesy, shouldn't you also tell me your name?" There was some teasing in Shen Tang's lively eyes.
"My name is Yan Lin, Yan means language, and Lin means majestic and majestic."
The woman was slightly stunned, then smiled and waved, leaving the cafe. Whether the male protagonist is in the game or in reality, the way he introduces his name will not change.
Yan Lin sat in his seat for a long time watching Shen Tang leave completely. Even when the mobile phone on the table vibrated for a long time, he did not raise his hand to answer it.
"You kid, why didn't you answer the phone?" The young man tapped Yan Lin on the head with one hand, which completely woke him up.
"Brother, you're here," Yan Lin stood up and sat in the seat where Shen Tang had sat before.
"What? Did you just run into someone you know?" Seeing two cups of coffee still on the table, the elder brother of the Yan family took out a bottle of medicine from his pocket and stuffed it into Yan Lin's hand, "Your health is not good, you still have to take medicine on time."
After looking at the medicine bottle in his hand for a while, Yan Lin lowered his head somewhat dejectedly, like an abandoned puppy.
"Brother, I think I've found the type I like."
The elder brother of the Yan family was shocked by his younger brother's words. More than 20 years have passed. Is his younger brother's iron tree finally going to bloom?
At the same time, Shen Tang, who came to the jewelry store that Gu Rou mentioned with her small bag, had just stepped into the store when she saw Gu Rou arguing fiercely with a man.
"Tangtang, you're finally here!" Gu Rou became more confident when she saw her, "Look at him, he insisted on snatching this jade bracelet from me, even though I was the first one to see it!"
"Miss, there should be a first come first served order. Although you were the first to see this jade bracelet, I was the one who paid for it first. Why don't you let me take it away?" The man was wearing a gray suit, and he was dressed neatly and neatly.
After finding out what happened, Shen Tang didn't think that the man was wrong. The goods were on a first come, first served basis. Since the other party had already bought it, it would be their fault if they kept pestering him.
"Don't you know that a gentleman does not take away what others love? Why do you have to snatch the things I chose?" Gu Rou glared at the man angrily, but Shen Tang patted his shoulder gently.
"Okay, Xiaorou, since that person has already bought the things, let's choose another piece of jewelry as a gift. After all, this is your grandmother's birthday party. You should be happy on such a good day and don't get angry about such things." Shen Tang narrowed his eyes slightly, with a gleam in his eyes.
The reason why the heroine asked her out was just to find someone to accompany her to choose jewelry. In fact, the other party’s elders’ birthday banquets would not invite young people like her, and she would naturally not participate in this birthday banquet. The purpose of arranging the plot in this way is just to let the hero and heroine of the plot meet. If the real hero and heroine have a first impression and develop feelings in the game, it will naturally be beneficial for the happy ending of the two.
But the key point at the moment is that when the hero came to the cafe, the heroine was not there, and now that the heroine has come to the jewelry store, the hero has not appeared for a long time.
From this perspective, whether the male protagonist will meet is still a big question.
"Xiao Fukubukuro, what exactly is going on in this world? Let's not talk about the plot in the game for now. Why is the plot in reality so different from the previous one?"
This didn't happen when she was carrying out her mission as the heroine of the drama. How come the plot in this world changed so drastically when she became a supporting actress?
The little lucky bag who had come back after the male protagonist was gone could no longer hide the truth and could only reply dryly: "Host, the bug fix of the overall system is not complete. There are more or less some problems in the current mission world."
"Hmm? So you let me come to this unstable world to clean up the mess?" Shen Tang smiled, but in her heart she was already cursing the decision of the senior management. For the sake of her future happy life, she had to endure it!
"No, host. The higher-ups have a very good reputation for you and believe that you have the ability to help the Administration solve problems, so they sent you back to these small worlds," Little Fortune Bag explained hastily. "Once all the bugs are fixed, the host will definitely get the reward he deserves!"
"I have also specially applied to the main system for a skill from this world for you. Whether in the game or outside the game, you can use self-defense to deal with threats when you encounter danger."
Xiao Fudai, who knew that he had concealed the fault from his host, spoke cautiously, fearing that Shen Tang was still angry with him.
“Okay, after going through so many worlds, how can I not know what you are like?” Shen Tang rubbed his forehead. Although this small system always burrows into the ground when the male protagonist appears, some of the skills it applies for her when she appears are still reliable.
Since the relationship between the male and female protagonists is not close, then she can try to bring them together more in the game, so that she can make the male protagonist a qualified protagonist of the world as soon as possible.
The little lucky bag noticed Shen Tang's thoughts and changed his tone: "Host, do you really think that the mission instruction is to spend krypton gold to make the male protagonist a proud son of heaven is enough?"
"That's what I thought before, but now it seems that the hero is still missing a heroine," Shen Tang answered Xiao Fudai while tapping his chin with satisfaction.
"But host, have you ever thought that the protagonist's obsession has nothing to do with other things, but... about you?"
