Chapter 301 – Yan Ruyu’s cousin Nighttime, in a residential area of Jiangling City. "Cousin, what's with the long face? Don't tell me you really got dumped?" "Sigh, not exactly. I just have a crush on a younger guy, but I feel like I don't stand a chance." "Come on! Unrequited love? With your looks and education, you still need to pine for someone? Any guy would come running with just a wave of your hand." "Heh, if only it were that simple. He's surrounded by beautiful women, all of whom are better than me. Plus, I'm older than him, so I have no advantage at all. TnT." "Is there really such a popular hunk in Jiangling? How come I don't know about him? What's his name, where does he live, what does he do, and what's his zodiac sign? Spill it all." "How would I know all that? I called you over to have dinner with me, not to interrogate me. Now sit down and eat." ... In a two-bedroom apartment, two girls were chatting while eating. "Cousin, don't be sad. There are plenty of fish in the sea. After dinner, I'll take you to play 'Tale of Immortal.' I'm telling you, there are so many handsome guys in there. I'm totally smitten with one of the top players, hehe~" Liu Xiazi said with a fangirl-like giggle. Yes, she was Yan Ruyu's cousin. The world seemed small; Liu Xiazi was from Jiangling City. In reality, Liu Xiazi was much like her in-game character, especially in terms of her flat chest... Yan Ruyu looked at her warily and advised, "You believe people online? Most of them are fake. Don't get scammed." "No way, this game doesn't allow face customization. You can only change your hairstyle. If you're ugly in real life, changing your hairstyle won't make you handsome. No one can fake it."@@@@ "I still don't believe it. I'm telling you, there are a lot of scammers these days. You're making good money as a streamer; they might be after your money or fame," Yan Ruyu warned. Liu Xiazi laughed and said, "Cousin, you're overthinking it. Do you know who he is? He's the top player in 'Tale of Immortal.' He can make enough money from selling equipment to cover my streaming expenses for months. Not just female players want to chase him, even..." Before she could finish, Yan Ruyu imagined, "No way? Male players want to chase him too? Is he gay?" Liu Xiazi rolled her eyes and said, "What are you talking about? I meant that even the female NPCs in the game want to chase him. Cousin, your thoughts are too unhealthy. You'll corrupt the kids at school." "Alright, what's so great about a game player? You have no taste," Yan Ruyu tried to salvage the conversation. "I disagree. I have great taste. Do you know how amazing and handsome he is? Let me tell you about his glorious achievements. Lin Jichen, the top player in 'Tale of Immortal,' has been..." Liu Xiazi wanted to go on and on about her idol, but Yan Ruyu didn't want to listen. She quickly finished her last bite of food and got up to leave. "Enough, I need to grade papers. We'll talk later." Liu Xiazi pouted, "Hmph, you don't understand him at all and say I have no taste." Just as Yan Ruyu was about to close the door to grade papers, she suddenly stopped and turned back. "What did you just say? What's the name of that top player?" Yan Ruyu suddenly realized the name Liu Xiazi mentioned sounded very familiar and urgently asked. Liu Xiazi looked puzzled but answered honestly, "His name is Lin Jichen. Why?" "Lin Jichen? Are you sure? Do you have a photo of him? Let me see!" Yan Ruyu urged. Liu Xiazi took out her phone, still confused, "I only have his in-game photo." "That's fine, let me see." Liu Xiazi had no choice but to unlock her phone. As soon as the screen lit up, Yan Ruyu pointed at her wallpaper and asked, "Is it this guy?" Liu Xiazi's wallpaper was a photo of her and Lin Jichen together. Caught red-handed, Liu Xiazi felt very embarrassed but nodded, "Yes, isn't he handsome? Don't I have great taste?" Yan Ruyu didn't have time to answer. She stared intently at the photo. Although it felt unfamiliar, it also seemed somewhat familiar. After a closer look, she realized it was indeed familiar. She had definitely seen him somewhere before... Lin Jichen... That's right! It really looked like him! Yan Ruyu was shocked, unable to believe it. She took the phone and kept looking at the photo, comparing it with her memories of Lin Jichen. Liu Xiazi, on the other hand, was baffled. What was going on? Was her cousin trying to steal her man?
