As soon as these words were sent, Sichuan's avatar turned black instantly. The corners of Murui's mouth twitched. He felt a sense of being ignored and felt somewhat unhappy. It was really boring without someone to play with.
Just at this moment, the interface made a sound, signaling two new messages. Curious, Murui clicked to open and take a look.
Summer Rain Lotus: Can you please stop messing around?
Mu Rui's expression turned silent when he saw her message, feeling that he was truly magnanimous.
[Mist Flower: ^_^ I Don't Understand]
Summer Rain Lotus: You don't need those Moon Spirit Stones, why would you want to make a scene?
Misty Flowers: Who said it's useless? I plan to give them to someone else.
Xia Ri Yu He: These Moon Spirit Stones are great materials for forging and upgrading divine swords. Besides She Chuan, there's no one else who has them. What do you mean?
In the misty bloom: ^_^ I just want to give it to him.
Xia Riyuhe: I know you're feeling down, but there's no need to act this way.
Mu Rui chuckled twice in front of the computer, staring at the classical female character on the screen who exuded a delightful aura.
Wu Zhonghua: How could I be sad? ^_^ Pursuing the person I love shouldn't be against the law, right?
The screen remained silent for a minute.
[Summer Rain Lotus: Are you running a fever? He is a man.]
Foggy Flowers: ^_^ I Like Both Genders
After a moment of silence, Xia Ruyu's profile picture, which had already turned dull, sent one last message.
【Summer Rain Lotus: Pervert!】
Mu Rui's sinister plan succeeded, and he couldn't help but laugh foolishly. To be honest, how much genuine emotion could one have in the online world? It was only when his emotions were frustrated by reality that he felt a spark of excitement.
Having laughed enough, Murui glanced at his phone and realized that he had been playing for an hour and a half. In this internet cafe, one could play games first and then pay. Murui closed his computer and prepared to leave.
Xiao Mu!
As he was paying, a young man walked from the dark corridor. Mu Rui turned his head upon hearing the voice and his face lit up with joy. "Hey! Amo, what are you doing here?"
Amo was a friend Mo Rui made while working part-time at a bar in high school. He was a loyal and trustworthy buddy. The bar was still open at that time.
"I have already resigned and quit working. That little money can sustain one person's life, but it cannot support two people."
Mu Rui was surprised, "You..."
"I am already married."
Mu Rui was a little stunned. Ah Mo was only twenty years old, isn't it too much pressure to get married and start a family so early? He scratched his short hair and asked, "So what are you doing now?"
Amo smiled and said, "She and I are going to the southern city where there are many factories and good salary benefits. The two of us can earn money together."
Mu Rui was a little absent-minded, "But the factory is very labor-intensive."
Amo patted Murui on the shoulder, with a relaxed expression on his face. "You've also crawled out of hardships, so naturally you understand that if you can endure hardships, you won't be afraid of anything. Besides, I'm not fighting alone; being together is better than anything."
Mo Rui looked at Ah Mo, who was the same age as him, feeling sad that he seemed too mature for his age and carried a heavy burden. However, everyone has their own path to walk.
"Then you guys better get along."
Amo smiled faintly and sighed slightly, saying, "Well, I'll go in then. I just saw your bicycle parked outside, so I thought I'd drop by and say hello. Be careful on the way."
Mu Rui grinned and waved at A Mo, "It's alright, see you later, bye."
The cold wind outside was blowing relentlessly. Mu Rui shivered and couldn't help but sneeze. As he rubbed his nose with one hand, he couldn't help but wonder, who was cursing at him again? How unlucky!
The school courses are always the same. Sophomores say they're busy, but they're not really. After completing the day's classes, Murui doesn't have much else to do and can only play games every day.
Xu Wen has been preparing his book report recently, diligently studying the Analects every day and pondering his thoughts on the post-reading reflections. Mu Rui enjoys solitude, while Mu Chu seems to be preparing for a presentation as well. What was that phrase again?
Oh right, the enemy is the greatest motivation!
Mu Rui found out in the game that She Chuan was always alone. He thought that since She Chuan didn't have a guild, it would be better to invite him to join his own guild. Hehe, with this great expert by his side, he wouldn't be looked down upon anymore.
Mist in the Flower: Do you belong to any factions? Let's join one together and fight monsters as a team!
Shè Chuān is invisible, but Mu Rui absolutely does not believe that he would be going to sleep at this time. Oh, by the way, what does he do? Is he a student? A workaholic? Or maybe an old man!
Mu Rui couldn't help but feel disgusted with himself when he thought of this. He knocked on the door several times, even threatened, and begged, but this guy still didn't respond. Mu Rui became disheartened and wandered alone in the game, seemingly intentionally avoiding him.
In the game, there are fairy islands, each with its own unique features, picturesque scenery, and exquisite craftsmanship. Fairy islands are the kind that float in the clouds and mist, divided into several types, such as Lover's Island, Immortal Cultivation Island, Flower Sea Island, and so on.
When Mu Rui was feeling bored, someone suddenly knocked on his door.
Fox by the Water: Hey, brother, how about forming a team?
Mu Rui went to get some snacks, munching on them noisily as he lifted his eyelids to tap on the screen.
【Flowers in the Mist: What's up?】
Beside the water, the fox: Oops, I'm being pursued and need help.
There's no luck in this damn fog!
(Wu Zhong Hua: Go Hide on Xiu Xian Island)
Please note that this translation is a literal rendering of the paragraph and the title of a Chinese novel. It may not convey the full meaning or context of the text.
Two people rode their mounts and flew to the Immortal Cultivation Island. A white-robed woman from the Emei Sect nearby fiercely chased after them, writing a line that said, "You damn fox, if you dare show yourself, I'll catch you for sure!"
Mu Rui set down the glass of water and chuckled. It's quite amusing to see a grown man being chased around by a woman.
Mist in the Flower: How did you offend her?
Beside the water, the fox: T^T, she is forcing me to get married!
[Wu Zhong Hua: Er... There seems to be various reasons inside.]
At the water's edge, the fox said, "The key point is not this, the key point is that I am female!"
Mu Rui sprayed a mouthful of plain water onto the display screen, hurriedly grabbed a tissue to wipe it off, and looked at the tall man standing next to his character, feeling embarrassed.
[Wu Zhong Hua: -_-||| Evil Sense of Humor]
[Fox by the Water: Tearful Love and Sincerity ▽▽]
What is the meaning of 'making one's own bed and lying in it'? This is a vivid example.
Mu Rui shook his head and sighed. Just as he was speechless, his eyes suddenly lit up. If it was a man, Shen Chuan would definitely think he had a problem with his brain. But if it was a woman...
Hehe, the legendary shemale.
Misty Flower: Cough, cough, I have something to ask you.
By the water's edge, the fox asked, "What's the matter?"
Misty Blossom: I have an alternate account, could I become your disciple?
Beside the water, the fox said with an expression of displeasure: "-_-||| Your level is higher than mine."
Mu Rui chuckled and replied, "Word from Wuzhonghua: That alternate account belongs to a girl, and her level is too low, so..."
Beside the water, the fox exclaimed, "Awooo, there's absolutely no problem! Big sis, I promise you'll have everything you desire to eat and drink!"
Mu Rui was speechless. Did she really have to be this enthusiastic?
By the riverside, the fox says, "Let me take you into our gang~"
Mu Rui gave a dry laugh. "Let's wait until tomorrow. I have a class in the morning, so I'll go to sleep first."
[Water's Edge Fox: Mmm-hmm ╭(╯3╰)╮]
In the game, when a big man makes this expression, the character would correspondingly make a certain movement. Murui felt disgusted and his throat rolled as he swallowed the water in his mouth, quietly thinking that only androgynous people could continue to survive.
