Ji Xinxin’s gaming skills were, to put it mildly, unflattering. Even Ji Fanyin and her flawless acting had stumbled once due to it. She honestly didn’t think that Ji Xinxin would be such a terrible gamer.
She had never felt more like a damsel in distress than during the gaming sessions with Bai Zhou.
She logged into one of Bai Zhou’s alternate accounts and received an invitation request from his main account right away.
In her peripheral vision, she keenly noticed that someone else had requested to join Bai Zhou's squad, but he ignored the request and went ahead to queue for Duo mode.
With a hand on the keyboard and a hand on the mouse, Ji Fanyin swiftly entered what she called ‘Newbie Gamer Ji Xinxin’ mode.
It was no easy feat for Bai Zhou to advance in the game with a huge baggage tying him down, though Ji Fanyin noticed that his skills had improved considerably.
Seems like humans do grow in the face of adversity.
While Ji Fanyin was crouching in the bushes, Bai Zhou entered a nearby building to scavenge for resources.
Around two minutes later, Ji Fanyin suddenly heard a voice coming from Bai Zhou’s computer. It was filled with surprise and delight. “Zhouzhou?”
Those words were relayed through all chat, which meant that everyone in the vicinity would be able to hear it, friend or foe. There was only one other person in the world who would address Bai Zhou with that pet name.
What’s with this coincidence? Did we really get queued into the same match as Ji Xinxin?
Ji Fanyin was bemused yet entertained by this unexpected development. She began scanning her vicinity from the safety of the bushes, and she soon spotted three avatars standing by a nearby window.
One was Ji Xinxin and one was Bai Zhou.
Who’s the third person?
With a quick glance at Bai Zhou, Ji Fanyin was able to quickly figure out what was going on.
Is that third person the man whom Ji Xinxin boldly brought along with her during her gaming sessions with Bai Zhou? Is this what he has been feeling troubled over?
Ji Fanyin equipped the 98K she had picked up and took aim at one of the two foreign avatars, which could have either belonged to Ji Xinxin or her male companion. Without any hesitation, she pulled the trigger.
Ji Xinxin’s shocked exclamation echoed from Bai Zhou’s computer, “Someone is sniping us! I’ll help my teammate first.”
The avatar Ji Fanyin shot down wasn't Ji Xinxin's.
So, she turned her scope toward the other avatar that most definitely belonged to Ji Xinxin.
Ji Xinxin was truly horrible at the game. Despite knowing that there was a sniper on them, she made no attempt to take cover when helping her teammate up.
After stabilizing her aim, Ji Fanyin pulled the trigger and eliminated Ji Xinxin with a headshot.
Consider this a gift from ‘Ji Fanyin’.
She wouldn't actually kill Ji Xinxin in real life, but there was no harm getting back at her in the game.
Everything had happened too quickly. The two snipes occurred within seconds of each other, and both were deadly headshots.
Bai Zhou only understood what was going on when the second gunshot sounded. “Wait a―”
A system notification announcing that Bai Zhou’s alternate account had killed two people popped up.
After claiming those two heads, Ji Fanyin took off her headphones and looked at Bai Zhou with innocent eyes. “Wow, I was really accurate with those two shots.”
…
Bai Zhou knew that Ji Fanyin was feigning ignorance. He stared at her for a few seconds before turning his attention back to the game.
He felt a tinge of glee when she had eliminated Kitty, but as for Ji Xinxin…
Maybe Ji Xinxin isn’t as important as Ji Fanyin is to me anymore.
Bai Zhou was shocked by the conclusion that inexplicably arose in his mind.
He soon received a text message from Ji Xinxin on his phone: 【Who’s playing with you on your alternate account? Why did he shoot me too?】
Bai Zhou glanced at his phone and quickly typed out a reply with a frown: 【She didn’t do it on purpose】
It was only after he sent out the message that he noticed a seemingly subtle yet glaringly conspicuous difference in their usage of terms.
Ji Xinxin had used the noun ‘he’ whereas he had responded with a ‘she’.
He tossed his mouse aside in frustration.
… Ji Xinxin is going to guess it.
Just as he had expected, the next message Ji Xinxin sent in was: 【Zhouzhou, didn’t you promise me that you wouldn’t meet with my big sis anymore?】
