"Why didn't you say something in the fan group before you started streaming, sweetheart? I almost missed it~"

"Yay, yay, yay! I haven't seen my wife in so long, and I finally get to see her today!"

"Jin's wife-watching stone is here~ Mwah, wife! Let me kiss my beautiful wife to death!"

"How long are you streaming today, baby Jin?"

The comments kept scrolling by. Wu Jin glanced at them and picked a question to answer. "Until I get tired."

Wu Jin was playing on her main account and had selected fill as her preferred role, so she was assigned to jungle when she entered the game.

Her teammates erupted when they saw the dazzling GOD-Jin, turning on their mics and all talking at once.

The guy in the second slot, whose ID was What Can You Do to Me, had been assigned top lane. He swallowed. "Jin, will you flame me if I don't play well?"

Wasn't this like brandishing a broadsword before Guan Gong?!

If only he'd selected support!

Of course, Jin didn't respond.

Meanwhile, Jiang Yun had been traveling lately. He got bored spending time at the hotel, so he streamed some games and roped his wife in to keep him company.

Mao Liling hadn't played games in a long time either, so she agreed. Sitting beside him, she showed her face for just a few seconds to greet the fans.

Ever since retiring, she had thrown herself into her new career and rarely appeared in public, though she occasionally updated her social media and interacted with fans.

Her pleasant voice sounded with a curious "Huh?" "The other team has GOD's new top laner."

Jiang Yun took a look and let out an "Oh?" His interest was piqued at once.

"Yeah, it's Jin. She's as good as you."

Mao Liling smiled and gave Jiang Yun's arm a light pat. "Stop flattering me."

The fans in Wu Jin's stream had also spotted Jiang Yun and Cat on the opposing team and excitedly flooded the comments. One fan sent a sports car, and a message scrolled across the big screen: Baby Jin, Yun and Cat are on the other team!

Wu Jin looked up and saw the comment. Her face was as still as a pool of water, the screen's glow lending the girl a touch of softness.

Who were Yun and Cat again...?

Jiang Yun had contacted Wu Jin on an alt account back then, so Wu Jin didn't know his in-game ID. Besides, Wu Jin's own personality made her rather indifferent to the things around her, so she had no impression of the two of them.

Judging by everyone's reactions, her opponents seemed pretty formidable.

Once they entered the game, Jiang Yun gave Wu Jin a friendly greeting.

Cat's Yun: What a coincidence, Jin~

Wu Jin was busy clearing the jungle, so she quickly typed "Mm" and sent it.

Jiang Yun was playing support this match, just so he could attach himself to his wife. He said it was to protect her better; Mao Liling rolled her eyes at him and ignored him.

"Wife, hurry up and invade her jungle!"

Hearing the man's mischievous chuckle, Mao Liling curled her lips. "So this is how you bully kids?"

Even so, she entered Wu Jin's jungle and quickly took the buff before anyone else noticed. Even if the mid laner spotted her, there were two of them, so they weren't afraid.

At that moment, Wu Jin was clearing out Cat's blue side. She opened the gold panel and saw that Cat's gold wasn't far behind hers, so she knew her own blue side had been invaded too.

Looking at the empty blue side, Mao Liling laughed. "Looks like our Jin had much the same idea as you. She really is your top laner."

Jiang Yun ran his tongue over his canine tooth, amused. "I couldn't tell, but she's pretty good at jungling too."

The viewers in the streams were watching both sides. They'd thought Jin was going to be "bullied" by the husband-and-wife duo, but instead, they'd invaded each other's jungles. Did everyone in GOD share one brain?

"Wow, our baby Jin looks so cool playing Sea Shark too! What do I do? My heart's pounding for her all over again!"

"I'm going to make a cool basketball shot in front of Jin, then pretend to lift my shirt to wipe off sweat and accidentally show her my six-pack."

"I still haven't managed to eat Jin."

"Ever since I saw Jin, I've felt an emptiness where my heart should be, but I didn't know why. Then one day I saw the chemical equation Mg+ZnSO4=MgSO4+Zn and finally understood. Jin used her magnesium to displace my zinc (heart)."

Wu Jin noticed the comment and tilted her head, a complicated look in her eyes. So chemistry could be used like that too...

All at once, she felt that Grandma had really been right to call her an old antique.

After reaching level four, Wu Jin looped around to the enemy's brush, and her team's marksman cooperated by luring out the enemy ADC. The poor ADC was pushed back and forth by Sea Shark, toyed with in the palm of her hand, and then slain for first blood.

First Blood!

Hearing that system announcement always made Wu Jin feel a little happier.

She headed to the river to take the dragon, and the support and marksman followed to help. When they were halfway through, Cat's Ashen Hidden suddenly came flying out, entering with her ultimate and giving them no chance to catch their breath.

Wu Jin reacted quickly and dodged the ultimate, but the marksman's hands weren't quite so fast. He was swept into the air, powerless to fight back, and the enemy mage arrived quickly too, unleashing an ultimate with a crowd-control skill.

Wu Jin stood to one side and used her skills to knock Jiang Yun's Yamei off Cat, then whittled away half the mage's health, though Cat also took a good chunk of hers.

Looking at the dragon before her, she calmly dashed out of the pit while landing a basic attack on it. The dragon followed her from the edge of the pit back inside, and she timed its health just right, pressed smite, and left without looking back.

The marksman was dead. If they lost the dragon too, they'd be at a disadvantage, so she had to steal it.

Mao Liling's eyes widened in pleasant surprise. "Jin's reactions are pretty quick, and she's bold too. She stole the dragon right under my nose."

Jiang Yun leaned back in his gaming chair, his heart filled as he gazed at his wife's breathtaking profile. "Wife..."

"Get lost."

"Stop acting horny while we're gaming."

"Oh."

With only a sliver of health left, Wu Jin went to mid lane to grab a health pack, then continued clearing the jungle.

She didn't speak either. When she wasn't farming the jungle, she was fighting people. She even turned off voice chat because her teammates were too noisy.

"How do we get Jin to pay attention to us?"

"No idea. Could it be that we're not weird enough?"

"Maybe."

And so, the mood in the stream changed.

[Jin Girl, Will You Date Uncle? sent five hot-air balloons]

[Jin's Fingers, My Spot sent a sports car]

[I'm Jin's National Server Simp sent a private jet]

[Jin Slaps Me, I Lick Her Hand sent Romantic Lovers]

Wu Jin looked at those bizarre IDs. It was hard not to notice them. How on earth did they come up with those IDs???

She didn't understand and didn't respect them.

"Change your names."

The girl's tone was no longer quite so cold, and she wasn't unhappy either. Instead, a faint note of helplessness came through.

When the fans in the stream saw Jin respond to them, they got even wilder. No one knew who started it, but someone began posting "woof woof woof," and soon the comments that followed were nothing but "woof woof woof."

The few remaining mom fans had been trying hard to keep the comments under control, not wanting their daughter's stream to look like some kind of training session. In the end, they gave up. There was no controlling it!

Wu Jin: ...

Anyone who didn't know better would think she was streaming from a pet shop.
