“Oh. So you are not denying that you are Tong Hua. Gosh, the petty and cynical kid is actually a cutie pie!”
“…” Shen Qianshu listened quietly.
The teammates nowadays were all clever; they had figured out the tricks.
Shen Qianshu went over as Tong Hua wanted. The opposing team was attacking a beast, and while they were almost done defeating the beast, the scheming Tong Hua went over and stole their kill. The beast and player on the middle lane from the opposing team came over to surround them, and Shen Qianshu went over to help them as Tong Hua requested. Tong Hua attacked them rapidly, and Skud went in attacking two of the opponents at a go while Tong Hua reaped what was dropped. Skud was a good teammate. He gave Tong Hua the kill, allowing him to soar and kill the marksman from the opposing team along the way. The raging Tong Hua was invincible. He had three kills!
“Wow, darling. You’re so amazing.”
“I recognize this voice. I watched Shen Qianshu’s live-stream videos yesterday. It’s her.”
“My prince, can I add you as a friend? Can you carry me for the friendly team games?
“Mommy is my only in-game friend.” Tong Hua rejected his request arrogantly. The two of them had so much fun playing that they did not notice that Ye Ling had returned. Ye Ling had heard them talking when he was at the door.
His small castle was in the suburbs, and he had lived alone for a long time. Due to his mental illness, he felt like he had no freedom. There were surveillance cameras everywhere in the castle, even in the bedroom. He was being observed by silent guards all the time. That feeling was uncomfortable, and yet he could not resist them. This was Butler Luther’s order; he was not allowed to leave their sights for more than half an hour, especially at night. So, Ye Ling had secretly installed a camera in their living room.
This was put in case of an emergency when there was not enough time to handle matters properly after he lost control of his emotions. It was in case he did not talk about it when the mother and son had a conflict with him.
The small living room was furnished to be very warm and comfortable. Compared to his little ice-cold castle, this place was full of human touch, and he loved it in his heart. The little castle was too quiet. Other than Zhong Ran, there was no one else to talk to. At night, you could even hear fallen leaves in the castle. It was so quiet it was like a cemetery.
Now, he could hear the mother’s and son’s voices everywhere. He could also hear the laughter of the stranger in the game.
“Mommy, go over to the Marksman and gain some points.”
“Oh, it was all for nothing. I didn’t get anything.”
“Mommy, retreat, retreat. You are dying. Oh. You died. Wait…” There was a series of noises coming from his controlling, and there was a voice from the screen that indicated that the enemy had been slain. “He’s dead. I got revenge for you.”
“Tong Hua, you’re so clever.”
“Tong Hua, you’re so good. You killed them alone.”
“6666…”[17. In online games, when someone types 666, it’s a compliment to the player, saying the player is very skillful and good at playing games.]
“Skud, fix them…”
They spoke to each other, and it was very lively. Shen Qianshu was all smiles, and it was the kind that came out from her heart. Her smile was so relaxed and bright. She moved over to Tong Hua to look at him play. This scene miraculously reminded Ye Ling of the impression he had of the little princess. His fists were clenched very tightly.
The beautiful woman was smiling happily, and he was willing to bear with the thorns that were pricking him.
Zhong Ran watched the scene in fear. They’re dead. They’re dead. Master is gonna explode!
Miss Shen, Young Master! How dare you ignore our Master for a game! He’s going to explode. He’s going to explode!!!
Ye Ling coughed loudly. Shen Qianshu had just been revived. She looked up at him and waved quickly before looking down to continue playing the game. Ye Ling’s eyes darkened, and a layer of frost built up in his amber eyes.
Shen Qianshu looked at Tong Hua as if he was her idol. “Tong Hua, you protected me. I did not have the special skills. I thought I was going to die.”
