“Pfft...”
Li Muen couldn’t help but simr with laughter.
“How funny this is! Both of them want to give their ribs to ngng, but they both dropped them halfway. What are they playing?”
ngng was also amused. She pursed her lips to suppress her laughter and murmured in her head,
“Who is doing it? Is it Auntie Xue or Auntie Jiang? Or it might be Uncle Liu.”
Since Mu Xue hung out with ngng all the ti, she had already told ngng that she, Auntie Jiang, and the security group or other mastered had been keeping an eye on her in secret every day. So, ngng had to be careful from now on. Because the walls might have ears as well as eyes.
Even so, since ngng had long been used to it, she still did whatever she wanted. Sotis, she even totally forgot about the surveillance.
“Emm...”
Zhou Lei was befuddled for five seconds. Then, he picked up his new pair of chopsticks and said in a low voice, “Let’s eat.”
“Yeah, dig in,” Bei Jin’nan echoed.
The two boys lowered their heads and began to eat.
They emptied their lunch boxes almost at the sa ti when ngng finished eating. After lunch, Zhou Lei wiped his mouth and then looked at ngng.
“Do you like to go outdoors and play?”
“Play what?” ngng asked casually.
Regarding the way of speaking and many other aspects, ngng had inherited Zhang Han’s advantage—being casual.
Why always think twice before speaking? That would be too tiring. Even if one said sothing wrong, it would not be a problem as long as one explained it later. Sotis, one wouldn’t even need to give an explanation.
Nevertheless, because of Zi Yan’s proper education plus ngng’s intelligence, she had rarely made any ill-considered statents.
At this mont, Zhou Lei intended to ask about ngng’s hobbies. He had also realized that his pursuit for ngng could be a lengthy process. Perhaps she was not interested in him in the first year of junior high school. But what about the second year? The third year? If not that, he would still have a chance when she was in the first year of senior high school.
Anyway, he would continue to court ngng even if he had to stay down at school for two years. She was certainly worth the wait.
“Well, I’d better cater to ngng’s pleasures.”
That was Zhou Lei’s plan.
He thought for a mont and said, “For instance, go to an Internet bar with classmates, hit a coffee shop, an amusent park, a billiard room, or a swimming pool.”
“I haven’t been to an Internet bar yet.” ngng was taken aback for a mont. But soon, she said, “Nor have I been to a coffee shop or a billiard room. Swimming is fine by . But I’ve already had my own amusent park.”
“You have your own amusent park?”
Zhou Lei and Bei Jin’nan’s expressions stiffened.
Could it be the kind of small indoor amusent park?
“Don’t you like to surf the Internet?” Zhou Lei asked again.
“Yes, she does.” Bei Jin’nan glanced at him indifferently and added, “We often play computer gas together. It’s called Demonic Dragon. Now your question is answered.”
He was being frank. But, in fact, he just joined ngng’s gaming team yesterday and played only for a while. He was not even a match for ngng’s secret account.
“Oh, then, all the more reason for you to try an Internet bar,” Zhou Lei said with a smile. “I also go to one occasionally. It’s quite interesting to play online gas with several friends all together.”
“Oh, well, I’ll try it next ti,” ngng replied.
“I’m also playing the Demonic Dragon. Which level are you guys at?” Zhou Lei looked at the three people at the table and inquired.
Bei Jin’nan gave him an indifferent look but didn’t say anything.
Li Muen chuckled and offered, “I’m at Level 45.”
“I’m at Level 73, and I’m about to reach the full level.” Zhou Lei said with a smile, “So tasks are quite fantastic. It’s a ga that requires team play. My skill is pretty good. If there’s a chance, we can go hit the instance dungeon together. ngng, which level are you at?”
After all, Zhou Lei was a wily old bird. He was more mature than Bei Jin’nan. Without asking for permission, he already called her “ngng” instead of “Zhang Yung”.
“Turns out that you’re rely at Level 73. I sure can let you tag along when I kill enemies. Beibei can’t do that. He’s too weak,” ngng said.
“Pfft!”
Bei Jin’nan’s gaze paused.
He was emotionally hurt by the pretty girl.
He swore in his head that when he went back, he imdiately would buy a full-level account with the best equipnt and then take ngng to kill enemies!
But it turned out...
That night, he finally made an appointnt with ngng to play ga together. He then sent a voice ssage to her.
“ngng, I just found out that a buddy of mine is also a full-level player. What a coincidence! I nearly purchased a full-level account. But now, that sum of money is saved. I can use my buddy’s account to play. I’m now very powerful. I rank 89th on the server-wide List of Top 100 Players. Do you know the number one on the List of Top 100 Players is... Princess ngng?”
Bei Jin’nan was instantly rendered dumbstruck.
Staring at the screen, he didn’t know what to do. He began to doubt his life.
“Pfft!”
He was emotionally hurt by the pretty girl.
On the other side, Zhou Lei also saw this four-word na.
“Pfft!”
He was emotionally hurt by this girl schoolmate.
He was so shocked that he could not even utter a word. A mont later, he hastily called his elder brother.
“Brother, aren’t you also playing the Demonic Dragon? Princess ngng ranks first on all the servers. How much you said last ti that her account is worth?”
“As I said, all equipnt that player has got at least cost 30 million yuan.”
“Pfft...”
Zhou Lei finally realized that this junior schoolmate nad Zhang Yung seed to have an exceedingly strong background.
She had spent so much money on an online ga! How prodigal could she be?
“Phew...”
Zhou Lei didn’t know what to say. Thinking that he lacked experience in this field, he decided to ask his elder brother again. Right at this ti, ngng’s crisp and pleasant voice ca from the speaker.
“Cut the crap. Follow to slay the enemies!”
ngng, who was cool and domineering, led the team to kill the evil. Along the way, all the players who saw her and her team went as far away as they could.
“Are you kidding ? That’s ngng, the Big Devil. She claims that she is a princess. Who is she kidding? She slew a ton of people last ti.”
As a result, the boys’ hope of helping ngng play the ga was dashed.
She had already taken first place on all the servers. What help could they provide then? Or should they also spend 30 million yuan on this ga?
How could they ever get their hands on so much money? Their allowance was limited. And they certainly couldn’t ask their parents for such a sum...
Thinking of this, Zhou Lei and Bei Jin’nan were both slightly deflated.
“Does her family own a gold mind or sothing? How could they allow her to spend so much money on a computer ga?”
The pressure suddenly doubled.
In the beginning, neither of them had thought about finance, for both of their families were already very well-off in Xiangjiang. At least they were in the upper class. But now, they were slapped by the cold reality.
“Pfft!”
It was heart-wrenching.
They continued to play the online ga. Soon, it was 11:30 p.m.
Zhou Lei sighed and switched off the computer. There were only him and his elder brother in the villa because his parents went to North Arica for a business trip.
“Brother.”
Walking to Zhou He’s bedroom, he found that his elder brother was also playing a computer ga, which was a kind of competitive ga.
“I want to pursue Zhang Yung. She is the Princess ngng in the ga called Demonic Dragon.” There was a hint of dejection in Zhou Lei’s voice.
“Pfft...”
“What?”
Zhou He spat a mouthful of hot water on the keyboard. “Is she from a rich family?”
“I’m not sure either.” Zhou Lei looked confused. “Two days ago, Xiao Ma saw ngng’s father co to pick her up when school was over. He drove a car that cost less than 100,000 yuan, which was very similar to that panda model. So I assud that her family was just average.”
“What the heck?”
Zhou He’s eyes widened as he exclaid, “He drove a little panda car? Amazing, amazing!”
“You know about this?” Zhou Lei was stunned.
“What could I know? I heard from your father that those who drive small panda cars are the ones we can’t afford to offend. It seems that in Xiangjiang, there are several particularly powerful big shots who drive small panda cars occasionally when they go out. For example, Patriarch Chu, Patriarch Luo, the Ma family, and the Hong family all have small panda cars. The reason is unknown. Even though those rich people already have nurous luxury cars, they still keep the small panada cars. Maybe it’s one of the hobbies of the moguls that we can’t understand.”
“What does it have to do with ngng? Her full na is Zhang Yung. Could she be a mber of the Zhang family in Linbei? That family seems to be very powerful. But even they wouldn’t have let her squander more than 30 million yuan on a computer ga,” Zhou Lei said in a baffled voice.
“She can’t be from the Zhang family in Linbei. The family’s total asset is worth no more than 200 million yuan. It’s impossible for them to let her spend 30 million yuan on the ga.”
Zhou He shook his head and said, “In the beginning, I also suspected that Princess ngng was an official decoy. Although that question has been answered, I still thought so. Who knew that your classmate, oh no, your junior girl schoolmate could be playing with that account? Could it be that the Demonic Dragon is actually developed by her family? Or that her parents are high-ups in that company? Both of the assumptions are plausible. If she did really pay that sum of money just for the ga, it would be rather astounding.”
“Yeah.” Zhou Lei nodded but already lost interest in pursuing the subject.
“By the way, my father got three invitations to a wedding ceremony. Originally, he intended to give your parents two. But they didn’t have ti because they were on the business trip. So, he decided to take and my mother there. I heard that it’s the wedding of that Master Hu in Xiangjiang. It’ll be a very grand ceremony. I think I’ll take you to that event and expand your horizon. You’re about to go to high school, so you’re allowed to familiarize yourself with such occasions,” Zhou He said.
“Why should I attend the wedding?” Zhou Lei hesitated. “You only have three invitations, and you and your parents are already going.”
“Our invitations are the infield ones. Do you understand? All the big shots will be there.”
Zhou He’s interest was aroused. With his eyes gleaming with excitent, he said, “Do you know who Master Hu is? He is the most prestigious person in Xiangjiang. Even Patriarch Luo, Patriarch Chu, and other masters of big families have to be courteous to him when they et. I’m telling you, his wedding will be a gathering of celebrities and many magnates. My father only got the invitations by relying on his connection with Gu Chen. We can only stay in the peripheral area of the inner field. For people like you who don’t have an invitation, they can just wait in the lounge outside the venue. I’ll co out after being there for a while. Since all big shots are gonna be there, I won’t have the guts to say a word. I’ll feel suffocated if I stay too long there.”
“Master Hu? Never heard of him.” Zhou Lei shook his head and said, “I don’t want to go. It sounds boring.”
“It’s my dad who asked to take you there. How dare you say no?” Zhou He stood up and kicked Zhou Lei on the butt. “You’ll soon be in high school. How could you still only care about having fun every day? Your parents are both brilliant and aweso entrepreneurs. You can’t let yourself beco a burden to them.”
“Got it. Fine, I’ll go. Which day is it?”
“It’s on the first day of October at the Blissful Dragon Hotel. Let tell you, even in the lounge, there will be many powerful figures. Our Zhou family can’t be compared to any of them. We and those figures are not in the sa niche of society. When you’re there, you should be careful with your words and just quietly observe the way other people communicate on this kind of occasion, understand?”
“I will go to bed.”
Zhou Lei didn’t want to listen to his lecture, so he turned around and left dispirited.
At the sa ti, Bei Jin’nan’s mother, Wu Sisi, was also talking with Bei Jin’nan.
“Beibei, we won’t make the trip to Zhuhai on October 1st. There’s a wedding to attend. It’s a very powerful figure’s wedding. Although you’re just in the first year of junior high, it’s good for you to see the world more. At the wedding, you and your brother will stay in the outer field. I and your Daddy will go to the inner field for a while.”
“Ah, okay, then I won’t go on the trip. Now I can make an appointnt... I’m gonna play gas with my classmates.”
“Don’t play for too long. Go ahead.”
“Yes.”
Bei Jin’nan ran back to his bedroom.
“ngng, are you going out in the first week of October? If you don’t, let’s ask so classmates to hang out with.”
He sent a WeChat ssage to ngng. He had gone to great lengths to learn about ngng’s WeChat account.
ngng said, “I still have sothing to do in the first week of October.”
Bei Jin’nan typed, “I was planning to go to Zhuhai. But my mom asked to attend a wedding ceremony on October 1st. to see the world. So I can’t go on the trip. Thus, I think I can ask you and others to play.”
ngng said, “You’re going to the wedding as well? I’m going to attend a wedding ceremony on October 1st.”
Bei Jin’nan said, “Isn’t that perfect? After attending the wedding, let’s go find our classmates and have so fun.”
ngng responded, “No, I can’t. I have sothing important to do. I’m going to take a shower and go to sleep. Bye-bye.”
At this ti, the piece of the song that was playing in Bei Jin’nan’s room happened to reach his ear.
“Why does she want to take a shower as soon as she chats with you online? It’s because you don’t look good.”
“Pfft!”
It was heart-wrenching.
