Chapter 197: Chapter 197: Online Gaming God VS Affectionate Disciple (Twenty-Four)
Is she Rustling Wood?
She’s actually Rustling Wood?
How could she possibly be Rustling Wood!
But no matter how unwilling or conflicted Little Building in the Smoke and Rain was feeling inside her heart, no one was paying attention to her thoughts right now.
Mo Tingyuan and Gu Shengyin were sitting together. He fell silent for a moment before saying, “Your leg before?” He hadn’t forgotten the first time he met Gu Shengyin, she was sitting in a wheelchair.
Gu Shengyin gave a faint smile, “I was in a car accident before. There was a period of time I couldn’t stand.”
Mo Tingyuan turned his head to look at the girl’s profile, the soft light shining on her flawless skin, making it appear even more lustrous like jade.
If you interact with Rustling Wood for a bit, you would find that she isn’t as aloof as she is in the game.
“Mo Tingyuan,” he suddenly spoke out, “my name.”
Gu Shengyin blinked, “Shen Xiaoxiao, the Xiao Xiao from Rustling Wood.”
Just at that moment, a somewhat coquettish voice came through, “Are you really Rustling Wood?”
Upon hearing this, Gu Shengyin looked up, her gaze mocking as she looked at the speaking girl, “Little Building in the Smoke and Rain?”
Little Building in the Smoke and Rain felt that Gu Shengyin’s voice was filled with indescribable mockery. She seethed inwardly, yet with a smile on her face, she said, “I never expected you to be so beautiful in person. Why have you never mentioned it? You’ve made others believe that you look just like your in-game avatar.”
Gu Shengyin smiled faintly, “After all, I am not like you. I prefer to speak with my abilities.”
This statement was implying that Little Building in the Smoke and Rain had no real skill and could only rely on her looks.
A few gamers around them let out a few snickers.
Watching Gu Shengyin maintain a calm expression while delivering such a sharp-tongued comment, a flash of amusement passed through Mo Tingyuan’s eyes.
Little Building in the Smoke and Rain’s face turned ashen, yet she suppressed her anger and forced a smile, “Rustling Wood, we have had some grievances in the game, but after all, it’s just a game. There’s no need for us to take it so seriously. How about we both step back, call it a day and make peace?”
She sneered inwardly, Rustling Wood, I’ve already offered my peace. Do you, Rustling Wood, dare to pressurize me in front of everyone?
If Rustling Wood agreed, it would mean she had to swallow her grievances silently, and she would no longer be able to target her in the game in the future, or it would be a slap to her own face.
If she didn’t agree, then all the better—it would let everyone see just how petty Rustling Wood was!
Gu Shengyin sighed inwardly; this woman was really not giving up until the bitter end.
But with such trivial tricks, she certainly couldn’t stump her.
Gu Shengyin glanced at Little Building in the Smoke and Rain, about to speak, but was stopped by Mo Tingyuan at her side.
He looked at Little Building in the Smoke and Rain coolly, “For there to be negotiations, both sides must be evenly matched. Little Building in the Smoke and Rain, what do you have to offer to make peace with Xiao Xiao?”
Not the slightest bit of courtesy for the girl!
Little Building in the Smoke and Rain’s face alternated between red and white. She had not expected Mountains and Rivers in One Sword to be so graceless. Wasn’t he afraid of getting a bad reputation?
Watching Little Building in the Smoke and Rain leave in an awkward state, Gu Shengyin whispered to the person beside her, “Aren’t you worried that if it gets out, people will say you’re ungentlemanly for bullying a girl?”
Mo Tingyuan laughed indifferently, “As a grown man, I’m not going to lose a piece of flesh over what others say.”
He then looked at Gu Shengyin seriously, “But Xiao Xiao, I don’t want you to suffer the slightest bit because of anyone.”
