You know, life is very short, so we must cherish our time. —Excerpt from Hua Xin's Collected Writings.
Another wonderful weekend...
Hua Xin lounged contentedly in her chair. The hem of her half-sleeved shirt had ridden up, revealing her flat, fair-white stomach.
Yesterday's trip to class had also passed without incident. Now, another five-day break awaited her (smug).
School? As easy as reaching into a bag!??
She only needed to sleep beside Xia Yan for the two days of school??.
That was just how a socially anxious shut-in lived. Hua Xin only needed to leave the house without thinking, attend class, finish class, and go home. As the upright grand judge of the heavens, Xia Yan had far more to consider.
"If you put me in the Northern Song, I'd definitely outdo Su Shi~"
"All the palace maids would wait on me~"
The girl hummed happily. When she saw the slightly unfamiliar ID light up on the game interface, she excitedly put on her headset and eagerly placed her hands on the keyboard and mouse.
Wow!! Today was the day she graduated from Diamond!??
"Ding ding ding ding ding ding."
A voice-call request sounded beside her ear. The girl took a close look: "Number One Son Online."
Hua Xin rejected it without a second thought. A faint sneer curled her lips. Did this shut-in really want to play while voice-chatting with her? After witnessing how perverted he was, she treated him only as a tool for climbing ranks and Explode Gold Coins...
"Ding. Twenty yuan has arrived in the QQ Wallet."
Hua Xin quickly found the chat window and sent a voice-call request.
Her husband.
No, who would ever have a problem with money?? They were only chatting. Besides, he was just an innocent young man. Wanting to hear her cute, soft, girlish voice was understandable.
There was no need to spend so much, though (??).
"Hello, hello, hello? Wife, say something??"
Suddenly, a deep and magnetic voice, rich and resonant, surged through Hua Xin's mind like an electric current. For a moment, her beautiful eyes rolled slightly upward, the whites taking up most of them. An unnatural flush spread across her face, sweet fermented rice wine slowly dribbled from the corner of her mouth, and her smooth hair stood up slightly.
The girl's legs went limp beneath the desk and trembled faintly.
Her entire expression looked like this↓
????(?)????
As though that voice had plunged her into some strange physiological phenomenon, she lay sprawled in her chair without moving...
"Wife, say something, wife??"
"Don't ignore me, wife. I'll buy you skins??"
Skins??
At those two words, Hua Xin instantly came to her senses. She sat there blankly for a while, then tore the headset off her head and slammed it onto the floor. Furiously, she shouted, "What kind of crappy headset is this? How could it leak electricity??!!! Whose equipment is this? Whose equipment?!??"
On the other end, Xia Yan had initially closed his eyes in enjoyment when he heard the girl's voice. He leaned back in the gaming chair at the internet café and adjusted the microphone, planning to lower his voice.
Her voice really was beautiful...
Then Hua Xin smashed the headset onto the floor.
Xia Yan:
The girl, furious????, began ruthlessly stomping on the cheap headset that had supposedly been an "i9-grade military-industrial gaming headset" but had started leaking electricity after only four months.
Bang bang bang bang bang...
Xia Yan:
A minute later, Hua Xin finally collapsed into her chair, utterly exhausted. She wiped the drool from the corner of her mouth and patted her chest with lingering fear.
The mighty sea would answer with the people's surging waves.
How awful. What if she had been electrocuted into a mutant?
Electro King?
The Motherland's Electric Man?
The Boys' A-Train?
Huh? Wait??...
If being electrocuted could turn her into a superhero, could it make her little buddy grow back?!
A sudden flash of inspiration struck Hua Xin's tiny brain. She silently looked at the headset, now reduced to scraps??.
Forget it...
Besides, she would probably turn that color before she mutated from the electricity.
Since her little buddy had already gone off to pursue freedom and happiness, she should stop forcing it to come back. After all, if it really mutated successfully, it wouldn't be the same little buddy anymore (sad).
Looking at the computer screen in front of her, Hua Xin suddenly remembered her mission to climb ranks—and what had just happened...
Uh...
Her gaze shifted to the headset cable plugged into the computer tower.
That perverted guy... should be fine, right???
The girl immediately broke into a cold sweat. What if he demanded medical compensation or something, then called the cops to have her arrested??
"Haha..." Hua Xin gave an awkward laugh as she unplugged the headset cable and weakly asked, "Um... are you okay?"
"I can't go on (short of breath). My ears seem to be bleeding (weak breath). What did you say, wife? (labored breathing) You said... you said you love me? (pervert)"
"I said you??????????"
The girl delivered her reward expressionlessly.
"That feels better??"
"Wife's voice is so nice~??"
"Wife, wife, what happened just now?"
Hua Xin's lips twitched. Although his voice was very pleasant, she finally snapped and scolded him, "Could you stop pretending to be a little puppy? Show some manliness!"
"So you like bad wolf boys, wife? How about now? Do you like it? (bubbly voice)"
"I like you??????????."
"Then I'll talk normally."
When the voice beside her ear returned to that deep, non-gimmicky tone, the girl slowly let out a breath.
She could still play without a headset. Time to climb.
Hua Xin said arrogantly, "That's more like it. Invite me."
"Wife, how did you fall to Diamond Four? (surprised)"
"I casually played on a smurf and still reached Diamond Three. (critical hit)"
The girl instantly went Red Temperature??: "Is that my fault? Look at these teammates!"
"Uh... Yuumi went 0/7, Nautilus 0/5, Lulu 1/7, Lux 2/11. Wife, why are all your stats red??"
Xia Yan held back his laughter and pretended to sound surprised.
"..."
"Mind your own business, this beautiful girl's affairs are none of your concern." Hua Xin's face flushed slightly, but she stubbornly refused to back down.
Her hand, however, accepted the friend request from "Cat-Cat Husband" with the mouse.
Hearing him call her wife over and over made her feel awkward.
It was almost as if she were really dating someone.
And... why had he even changed his ID to a matching couple name?!
The girl's eyes suddenly became extremely clear??. As someone who had spent years surfing the internet, she immediately understood what stage she was in now.
Absolutely...
Absolutely no feminization!!!
Her body was a woman's, but her heart belonged to greed.
The true man's soul sleeping inside her had awakened.
Hua Xin cleared her throat and said arrogantly and coldly, "Don't call me wife. Call me Master."
"Master."
The other party did not hesitate in the slightest, and Hua Xin could not help holding her breath.
"You don't have any shame at all!!"
Xia Yan asked in confusion, "Master wants to play around, so of course I can accompany you. Who told us we're a couple?"
The girl almost lost her composure. "You really are a perverted Shui..." (Xia Yan's online-relationship nickname was Brother Shui, shortened to Shui.)
"I'm only perverted for Master."
Then, seeing that the game had started, Xia Yan asked, "We're choosing champions. What do you want to play?"
Hua Xin saw that the perverted Shui was there and she was the support, so she said casually, "You play Ashe, and I'll support you?"
Xia Yan: "Uh... love??"
Hua Xin: "???"
The girl froze for a moment before belatedly realizing what Xia Yan meant. Her face rapidly flushed pink again, and, burning with embarrassment, she closed her eyes and cursed at the thoroughly satisfied Xia Yan.
How could this person be so perverted and shameless?! (embarrassed fury)
