"What are you looking at?"

Due to being so angry that she almost lost her mind, she didn’t even notice when the man came out of the bathroom.

Quickly turned off her phone and smiled: "Nothing much, just checking out the latest trending news."

"Hmm, some negative news isn’t worth paying attention to." The man said as he was already in his robe and walking towards her.

To be honest, just now the man clearly untied his towel first before putting on the robe, but he moved so fast that she couldn’t see anything, as if he teleported.

Originally, she thought the man would just go to bed and sleep, but it seemed she was wrong, as the man was already close to her.

With their eyes meeting, several scenes were already playing in Elliana Lyle’s mind...

"Girl, are you scared?"

A strong and good-looking arm reached out from under the covers and grabbed a box from the bedside drawer.

...

The next day.

Elliana Lyle woke up at 11 am, but she didn’t feel like getting up at all.

She propped herself up, and the pain made her tremble involuntarily!

She remembered blacking out several times and then waking up again.

"...It hurts so much..."

"Miss Sutton, the young mistress hasn’t gotten up yet!"

There was a rush of footsteps outside, and it was Lana’s voice, it seemed Luna had arrived, but she hadn’t had time to get dressed!

She knew Luna’s character would definitely push the door open and come in, so with no choice, she laid back down.

"It’s already noon, what are you still sleeping for?" As she spoke, Luna had already burst in.

And walked directly towards her.

Seeing her eyes open, Luna said: "Aren’t you awake, come on and get up."

When Luna saw that the blanket had not completely covered her, she was stunned for a second and then looked at the empty packaging in the trash can, instantly understanding everything.

She crossed her arms and smirked teasingly: "Oh, someone had a romantic night last night."

"Nothing happened!" Elliana Lyle glared back, embarrassed and angry.

"How could it be nothing? Geez, at this rate, Norman Bennett won’t run out of juice?"

"Luna! Get out!"

Watching the embarrassed and angry Elliana Lyle, Luna laughed and backed away: "Alright, alright, I’ll go out. Get up and tidy yourself, I have something to tell you."

By the time Elliana Lyle was ready, it was already 1 pm, yet looking at the stairs in front of her gave her a headache. She didn’t want to go downstairs, she just wanted to lie down.

However, Lana was very understanding and immediately said: "Missus, let me carry you down."

"Okay."

Luna was sitting on the sofa watching a comedy movie, her hands full of lime-flavored chips, and several empty bags on the floor!

She’d eaten all of her supplies!

"Hahaha, that kills me." Suddenly feeling a chill, Luna turned around sharply, and Elliana Lyle was already standing behind her.

"Oh my! You scared me, come sit."

Elliana Lyle sighed and sat down beside Luna, asking: "Alright, what’s up?"

"Nothing major, I just wanted to tell you John Shaw was sentenced, 16 years." Luna’s eyes were still glued to the TV screen.

This news seemed quite strange to her: "John Shaw? Who’s that? Does it have anything to do with me?"

"It’s John Shaw, and also, Simon King is coming to South City the day after, so I’ve canceled today’s flight. Come on, I rarely have free time, watch a movie with me."

Turns out it wasn’t anything major, she really wasn’t in the mood to watch movies, so she picked up her phone and started scrolling.

On a whim, she wanted to check on yesterday’s blogger, only to find the account had been banned!

She hadn’t expected the official action to be so swift!

Before she could exit and continue browsing videos, Summer Hue’s call came in.

"Hey, Summer, what’s up?"

The voice on the other end was clearly excited: "Sis, I’ve got a qualified account for you, join the game, help generate some buzz for our studio."

"Alright... I guess!" She glanced at Luna beside her, and asked softly: "Want to play a game?"

"Hmm? What game? The one you posted about yesterday? I didn’t get a code." Luna shrugged, she saw Elliana Lyle’s post on Weibo yesterday and tried to reserve a slot but only managed to win 1000 copper coins.

It seemed Luna wanted to play, so Elliana Lyle whispered: "Wait a sec, let me ask."

Summer Hue gave her two accounts without hesitation.

But Luna disliked the slow internet in the villa and suggested: "Let’s go to a cyber cafe, it’s been a long time since I’ve been to one."

"Not a good idea?" Elliana Lyle hesitated, she had never been to a cyber cafe, since she had one at home, there was no need to go.

Luna kept encouraging: "What’s wrong with that?

We’ll get a private room, eat and play, without anyone disturbing us."

"No, I don’t want to go."

...

―――GlideStar Cyber Cafe.

In the VIP double room.

In the dim room, the glow from the computer screens illuminated the faces of the two girls.

"How much longer until you’re finished downloading?" Elliana Lyle sat in the gaming chair, occasionally touching the mouse, and when she saw the progress bar had reached ninety-seven percent, she sat up straight.

Luna took a sip of her coke and exhaled: "We have the same internet, shouldn’t be much longer."

As the progress bar filled, an animated scene played on the screen with a fully immersive martial arts aesthetic.

The scenery was exquisite and realistic, though how the in-game experience would be was yet to be seen.

After logging in and completing real-name verification, they entered the character creation phase.

"What class should I play?"

"You play the healer, what else could you play?"

Luna confidently chose the assassin class, high difficulty, high damage, highly mobile, the only downside being its fragility.

...

[You have died, await resurrection by a healer.]

Elliana Lyle: (●—●)

She was the healer.

But she had already died, seeing the boss left with only a sliver of health, yet failing to dodge with her movement ability, she was smacked to death by the boss instantly!

Subsequently, one by one, the five teammates also died.

A tank class teammate named Big Fist on the audio channel hesitated before saying helplessly: "Oh dear! Healer, you need to dodge! We were almost done! Maybe you should go home and farm instead of playing games?"

Elliana Lyle: (●—●)

Reflecting on what happened, it was also because the tank teammate was constantly calling for heals that she ended up like this.

And this tank thought with a healer there, he didn’t need to dodge the boss’s skill damage, even running into non-targeted skills, practically a masochist.

She couldn’t heal him enough.

Big Fist: "I withstood so much damage, did you guys do any damage, can you even play?"

[Big Fist has been kicked from the team by Crescent Moon]

As the team leader, Luna directly kicked the tank out, saying: "We attack, I’ll draw the boss’s aggro, everyone avoid the boss’s skills."

"Luna, it’s not going to work without a tank, you’re too fragile, I can’t keep you healed enough."

"Let’s give it a try."

Without Big Fist, although it took half a minute longer to finish, the whole team survived. Initially, Elliana Lyle thought Luna was too fragile, considering she had to constantly heal the tank’s health.

Seeing the purple equipment drop, everyone started bidding with copper coins.
