The two of them reached Room 201 on the second floor and went inside.
A large bed stood in the room.
There was a nightstand on either side of the bed.
Each nightstand held a computer and a helmet.
Su Qinghuang sat on the bed, a strange smile flickering across her pretty face as she asked Wen Xiancheng, "Ever played at a high-end internet café like this? This is the most luxurious internet café in the entire Yue Kingdom! An hour costs ten mid-grade spirit stones!"
Wen Xiancheng's heart lurched.
That expensive!
Was this playing games or playing with money?
Seeing his expression, Su Qinghuang practically bloomed with delight inside.
Just what I'd expect from a broke loser. This little bit of money scared him!
Pointing at the bed, Su Qinghuang said, "Sit down and play with me for a while."
Wen Xiancheng shook his head. "No, I can't afford it."
Su Qinghuang glanced at him.
At least he knew his place.
But who told you to offend Xu Junfeng?
And today, you even offended me!
So consider yourself unlucky. You're exactly the one I'm going to mess with!
I'll ruin you, leave you at the very bottom of society forever, and make sure you never climb back up!
Although Su Qinghuang's thoughts were vicious, she still wore a cheerful smile. "It's fine. To thank you for accompanying me home today, I'll treat you. You can play for as long as I do."
Seeing that Wen Xiancheng was about to refuse, Su Qinghuang hurriedly added, "A man ought to broaden his horizons. You'd never bear to spend money on a place like this normally, so let me show you around. If your girlfriend brings it up someday and you know absolutely nothing about it, won't you make a laughingstock of yourself?"
Wen Xiancheng nodded.
True.
Ever since he had transmigrated into this body, his life had been monotonous.
All he did was cultivate and earn money.
He had never really gotten to know this other world.
As a transmigrator, how could he not experience the wonders of another world?
Did he have to remain a slave to work even after transmigrating?
Having made up his mind, Wen Xiancheng stopped hesitating. He sat beside Su Qinghuang and put on his helmet, copying her.
Su Qinghuang tilted her head and watched him through narrowed eyes, sneering inwardly.
Leaning forward in front of Wen Xiancheng, she helped him press the button beside the earpiece, then selected a game called Beautiful CEO Flirts with Me on the computer. Smiling, she said, "Today, we're playing a dating game. Lie down, relax your body, and close your eyes. Don't think about anything. Just immerse yourself in the game."
Wen Xiancheng did as instructed.
After selecting the game for him, Su Qinghuang logged into the same game herself.
Before long, Wen Xiancheng discovered that he was standing in a pink room, dressed in form-fitting clothes.
Beside him stood Su Qinghuang, also wearing form-fitting clothes.
A wardrobe stood on the right side of the room.
Wen Xiancheng was secretly astonished.
Technology in this world had actually advanced this far!
A virtual reality game?
And Su Qinghuang's face beside him looked exactly the same as it did in reality!
Seeing his astonishment, Su Qinghuang said smugly, "Never played one before, have you? This is a simulation game. It uses the most advanced technology-virtual reality technology. Its development hasn't been particularly promising so far, though. Still, it's already surpassed the vast majority of games."
"In most games, you can only tap away at a keyboard and stare blankly at a screen. But you can play these games as though they're real. You can even get up close and personal with beautiful women!"
Wen Xiancheng looked at her in confusion. "How do I move? Raise my hand, for example?"
Su Qinghuang raised her hand effortlessly. "Just recall how you normally move your hand, and you'll be able to move it. This helmet captures your brain waves and turns them into different movements."
Wen Xiancheng tried moving his right hand to touch Su Qinghuang.
Only after several attempts did he manage to raise it.
And his fingers passed straight through her cheek.
Wen Xiancheng immediately frowned. "The controls are a little complicated. They're not very friendly to a beginner like me. And these characters are all intangible images. They're no different from illusions."
Su Qinghuang rolled her eyes. "Are you dreaming? This is already one of the most advanced kinds of games available! You only find it complicated because you haven't played much. Once you've played more, it'll all be effortless. And the characters being intangible? Nobody has the ability to reproduce the sensation of physical contact yet."
The sensation of physical contact?
Wen Xiancheng thought of the banana Cui Qianqian had transformed into.
Then he lowered his head to look at his hands.
An idea suddenly popped into his mind.
This game relied on capturing brain waves.
Therefore, the richer a person's imagination, the easier it would be for them to master the game.
But someone with a poor imagination would probably be tearing their hair out within minutes!
Never mind anything else-just imagining himself raising his hand had taken Wen Xiancheng several attempts!
If these scenes were all illusion realms-
Wen Xiancheng's heart began pounding.
He had thought of a business opportunity-
Using illusion arts to create a brief illusion realm!
A sleazy smile spread across Wen Xiancheng's face.
What sort of brief illusion realm would attract people the most?
Those romantic action movies from the island nation!
Just imagine the feeling of being right there!
It would feel ridiculously good!
Wen Xiancheng looked at Su Qinghuang. "Sorry, something urgent has come up. I need to go home first. I'll return your ten high-grade spirit stones."
With that, Wen Xiancheng took off his helmet, got up, and left.
Su Qinghuang cried urgently, "Stop right there! Do you have any professional ethics? You accepted the job. How can you quit halfway through?!"
"Sorry, this wasn't my profession to begin with," Wen Xiancheng called back as he left without turning around.
Su Qinghuang was so furious that she ripped off her helmet and slammed it onto the floor. "You broke loser! How dare you make a fool of me over and over again! This isn't over!"
Wen Xiancheng flagged down a car and headed straight to the Noble Primary School.
There, Cui Qianqian, Xue Ning, and Xue Ruigao were using illusion arts to work on the textbooks.
Wen Xiancheng excitedly gathered the three women together. "Come here! All of you! I've thought of a fantastic business opportunity!"
Seeing how excited he was, all three women looked over curiously.
Xue Ruigao asked, "Orange, what business opportunity?"
Wen Xiancheng smiled. "Do you like watching scenes of men and women kissing on television?"
The three women exchanged looks.
Xue Ning asked in confusion, "What exactly are you trying to say?"
Wen Xiancheng insisted, "Just answer me honestly."
Xue Ruigao cleared her throat awkwardly. "Yes."
Wen Xiancheng nodded in wholehearted agreement. "We men don't like that. What we like most is watching men and women spare no effort, working up a sweat for an undertaking that will endure for a thousand generations."
"What do you mean, working up a sweat for an undertaking that will endure for a thousand generations?" All three women looked baffled.
Wen Xiancheng cleared his throat, his face reddening slightly. "Sex."
All three women immediately flushed scarlet.
Xue Ning spat and scolded him, "Is there something wrong with your brain? What are you trying to do? Talking about this to three girls in broad daylight?"
Xue Ruigao looked embarrassed too. She shot Wen Xiancheng a reproachful look. "Orange, w-when did you become like this?"
Wen Xiancheng's face also turned bright red. "Ahem, don't misunderstand. I'm bringing this up because this is where our business opportunity lies! Think about it. If we created an illusion realm, a very short one, with beautiful women or handsome men doing things that really catch the eye, how many people do you think would want to experience it?"
