A Romantic Encounter
However, after staying at home for so long, even Xiao Yu, a seasoned homebody, started to feel a bit stifled. The main reason was that now that he had money, spending all his time playing games with so much money made him feel a bit unambitious.
That day, Xiao Yu decided to go out for a walk to get some fresh air.
After driving his newly bought flying car around twice, he first went to the boutique to get himself a set of high-end clothes to change into, and then parked in the parking lot of a hotel with more than 100 floors.
He planned to treat himself to a nice meal and also experience the atmosphere of the place.
The hotel restaurant was very quiet. Xiao Yu sat down at a table against the wall and picked up the menu.
I was quite taken aback when I opened the menu; the food here was really expensive, especially compared to the same food in the virtual world.
He was quite familiar with the place; he used to come here often—though it was in the virtual world, so he knew the rules. He ordered a few dishes and a bottle of red wine, and began to savor them slowly.
Xiao Yu was quite disappointed with what he ate. These foods, which were a hundred times more expensive than those in the virtual world, tasted almost the same as those in the virtual world. In fact, some of them were not even as delicious as the food in the virtual restaurant.
There's no way around it; the ingredients in virtual restaurants are all top-notch, and the chefs' skills are absolutely top-notch. In reality, you just don't have such top-notch chefs and ingredients.
While eating, Xiao Yu's eyelids twitched. Amidst this elegant and solemn atmosphere, a bright red color appeared.
A blonde woman in a red evening gown was sipping red wine and glancing in his direction.
"What a beauty! A real beauty!" Xiao Yu's heart skipped a beat when he saw the woman. Although he had seen countless women in the virtual world, Xiao Yu was still a virgin at heart. The beauties in the real world were truly different—their hips, their legs, their figures, their faces.
"Is this girl looking at me?" Xiao Yu wondered to himself.
What surprised Xiao Yu even more was that the beautiful woman actually stood up and walked towards him.
"Mr. Xiao? Oh my god, it really is you! I'm such a fan, I'm so excited to meet you!" The beautiful woman exclaimed excitedly, expressing her admiration, before finally asking, "May I sit down?"
"Of course," Xiao Yu was somewhat unable to resist the beautiful woman's request. He hadn't expected to encounter a beautiful fan on his first outing; it seemed like he was about to have a romantic encounter.
"Would you do me the honor of having a meal with me?" the beautiful woman asked, her eyes sparkling.
"Of course, how could I bear to refuse an invitation from such a beautiful woman?"
"Mr. Xiao must have many admirers. How does it feel to be admired?"
"Oh, no, I don't want to be famous at all. I just want to live a normal life."
Xiao Yu spoke only the truth.
As they chatted, Xiao Yu could clearly sense a hint of ambiguity emerging between them. This was his first time experiencing romance in real life, so he was a little nervous. However, the blonde beauty was very proactive, and after a few words, she invited him to her hotel room for coffee.
Drinking coffee was just an excuse. Xiao Yu was thrilled. Haha, it feels so good to be a celebrity! I've finally encountered a beautiful woman throwing herself at me. To receive this treatment, I'm sure I was right to have saved the world back then.
The two left the restaurant and soon arrived at the beautiful woman's hotel room.
Upon entering the room, the beautiful woman pretended to be tipsy and had Xiao Yu help her sit down on the sofa.
The woman's fragrance stirred Xiao Yu's heart, and her eyes were filled with allure. Just as Xiao Yu was about to take things further, suddenly, whether it was his imagination or not, he saw a hint of purple light in the woman's eyes.
He was taken aback and paused subconsciously.
"What's wrong, Mr. Xiao?" the beautiful woman asked, somewhat puzzled.
It was nothing. Upon closer inspection, Xiao Yu realized they were just ordinary eyes. Could it be an illusion?
But those purple-glowing eyes looked so familiar. Almost every player who was Overlord the Overlord had that same look, only much more obvious.
Am I hallucinating because I've been playing too many games? But I haven't been playing games much in the last few days.
Xiao Yu was quite confident in his intuition. Although he thought it might be a hallucination, he still felt uneasy, and even the beautiful woman in front of him seemed a bit strange.
"Well, that's all for today. I think it's time to say goodbye."
As Xiao Yu spoke, he stood up to leave, but the beautiful woman suddenly blocked his way at the door, looking at him with a half-smile. "Mr. Xiao Yu, where do you think you're going? You think you can just leave without doing anything? Mr. Xiao, you're really too clueless about romance."
Please move aside.
"What if I don't?" The beautiful woman's expression suddenly changed, adopting a Taunt look.
Xiao Yu's unease grew stronger, and his face darkened. "Although I've never hit a woman before (not counting in games), if you don't step aside, I warn you, things will get very ugly."
"Oh, really!" the beautiful woman said, suddenly pulling a gleaming dagger from the inside of her thigh beneath her skirt. "Just how ugly must it be? I'd really like to see."
Xiao Yu's heart jumped into his throat. He thought to himself, "Damn it, I knew there wouldn't be such a good thing. What should I do? What should I do? How did this girl suddenly become so fierce? What happened to her brainless fandom?"
Before Xiao Yu could figure out a solution, the blonde beauty suddenly rushed towards him, her alluring face revealing a chilling killing intent.
