Chapter 2: 2

Is the game real?

After the shock, Chen Yan looked away and quickly took out his mobile phone from his pocket and opened the game to check it out.

In the game interface, Yu Qiaoqiao’s pixel character is still in the convenience store, with the words [Shopping] on top of her head.

 Chen Yan clicked on Yu Qiaoqiao, and a photo of Yu Qiaoqiao popped up in front of him.

He looked at Yu Qiaoqiao on the screen and then looked at the girl in front of him.

In addition to the confident smile on the face of the girl in the photo, and the melancholy between the eyebrows of the girl, in reality, is really... exactly the same.

 Chen Yan was a little surprised.

Is this a coincidence? Or did the game steal the photo of this girl?

But, he had to say that this was certainly fate’s work at play.

With the phone safely tucked away in his pocket, Chen Yan turned away and did not dare to glance at the girl again for fear of being recognized by her.

Aunt Liu happened to come out with a box of instant noodles just at that moment, which was fortunate.

Chen Yan welcomed her fast and snatched the instant noodles from her hands.

Aunt Liu patted Chen Yan on the shoulder with satisfaction, and said, "Xiao Chen, you still don’t go to work and instead play games at home?"

Chen Yan smiled and said, "I'm a professional game developer and it’s a proper career."

Aunt Liu waved her hand, "You said that I don't understand. I just want to ask you, are you seeing anyone?"

Chen Yan coughed twice, knowing that Aunt Liu was usually trying to introduce women to him.

He laughed lightly, "Let’s not talk about this.”

 Aunt Liu said to Chen Yan earnestly, "Xiao Chen, it's time to find someone. Don't be a couch potato who spends all of his time at home playing video games. Let’s not make your dad worry about you.”

Chen Yan smiled wryly when Aunt Liu mentioned his father, but did not answer.

The two of them walked to the counter while chatting.

Within his sight, only then did Chen Yan realize that the girl was already waiting at the counter with something in her hand.

Seeing Chen Yan approaching with a box of instant noodles, the girl moved aside and spoke cutely, "Go first."

Chen Yan held the instant noodles, smiled, and shook his head, "Thank you. But, you can go first."

The girl didn't give any more modesty and just nodded.

While Aunt Liu scanned the girl’s merchandise, Chen Yan also quietly looked at the girl who "looks exactly the same as his own online girlfriend".

The more he looked at her, the more he felt proud.

He suddenly felt quite alone and depressed, despite the fact that he was delighted to have such a wonderful partner. 

Do I take the initiative to get to know her?

But...

How will the conversation go?

I can’t just say, “Hello, you are exactly the same as my girlfriend in the game, would you like to go out sometime?.”

Won’t she feel creeped out?

However, when an opportunity comes by, surely I will….

At this moment, a girl’s surprised voice suddenly rang in his ear, "Huh? Where's my phone? Excuse me, auntie, wait a moment."

Chen Yan looked at the girl, only to find that the girl was rushing to touch her pocket, but after touching it several times, she couldn't find anything.

Chen Yan pondered for a while before saying, "Did you leave it at home?.”

A little smile appeared on the girl's face, and her gorgeous features were illuminated by a sweet expression, "Oh. I was walking in a hurry, so I probably left my phone in the dormitory."

Chen Yan glanced at the things on the table. Two packets of braised beef noodles and a piece of ham were not worth a lot of money.

 He once again thought of the wonderful "fate" between the girl and himself.

Replying with, "I'll help you pay for it."

After finishing speaking, he ignored the girl's refusal and took out his mobile phone and said, "Aunt Liu, swipe it for me." He also gave Aunt Liu a kind wink.

 Aunt Liu gave Chen Yan an expression of "I understand", and then smiled and scanned Chen Yan's payment code.

After paying the money, Chen Yan nodded to the girl and then walked away holding the instant noodles.

The beautiful girl had never encountered this kind of checkout situation before, so she was stunned and a little lost at what to do.

Seeing this, Aunt Liu coughed and reminded her, "Girl, don't worry, that kid I know very well, he is a good guy. You can take the things. It's okay."

 "However, you'd better go and thank him, after all, he helped you."

The girl hearing the aunties’ voice woke from her daze and quickly grabbed the things, bowed to Aunt Liu, and said, "Thank you, Auntie." Then she ran after Chen Yan.

Aunt Liu looked at the girl's pretty back and hummed a little song triumphantly.

She always liked to promote marriages, and for people her age, it was not only a fun event but also for possible grandchildren, therefore, why not try to do it.

As for Chen Yan, he wasn’t thinking of "marriage" at all, he just felt that he had a good relationship with the girl.

Trying to know more about her directly is too abrupt, so instead, it’s better to let her take the initiative.

However, Chen Yan wasn’t thinking clearly, since it was possible for the girl to simply take her things and walk away...

His philosophy was: A few dollars' worths of items should be given as a token of affection. If everyone contributes a little amount of love, the world can become a more lovely place.

Just as he was finishing his thoughts, a girl's voice from behind him called out, "Hello, hello! Hold on a minute!"

Chen Yan stopped in place, turned his head around, and a scripted surprised face appeared, "Hey, Why are you here?.”

The girl ran in front of Chen Yan, stopped, and a faint scent of white rabbit toffee inserted through his nostrils. (T/L: Milk Candy)

Her face was flushed, she was panting, and her chest was heaving as she breathed. She took a couple of deep breaths and, feeling a bit embarrassed, swiftly said, "Hello there. Thanks just now."

Chen Yan smiled and waved his hand, "It's okay."

The girl hesitated a bit before saying, "Why...Never mind, is it convenient for you to add me on WeChat? I'll transfer the money to you when I get home."

Chen Yan waved his hand again, "I really don't need it.”

 The girl bit her lip and said, "Give it to me. I don't like owing money to others."

Seeing that the girl is serious, Chen Yan pretended to think, then put down the instant noodles he was holding, took out his phone, unlocked it, clicked on WeChat, and handed it to the girl, "Okay."

When the girl picked up the phone, she took a deep breath, wrinkled her nose, and began using it in earnest.

Chen Yan laughed as he saw the girl's charming features.

After the interaction, the girl returned the phone to Chen Yan, bowed slightly, and said, "Thank you. I have already added it. I will pass it when I go back, and I will transfer the money to you at that time."

Chen Yan smiled with an "um", picked up the phone and the instant noodles on the ground, and was about to leave.

And just as he was ready to continue ahead, he paused to consider something, turned his head around, and said, "By the way, what is your name?"

The girl was stunned for a moment, but still manage to reply, "My name is Yu Qiaoqiao."

Chen Yan was taken aback and shocked, but it didn't show on his face. He just smiled and nodded, and said, "My name is Chen Yan.”

After exchanging names, he turned and continued walking.

But as he walked away, the smile on Chen Yan's face slowly disappeared and turned into doubt.

"Not only do they look the same, but they also have the same name...Is it such a coincidence?"

"Is information getting leaked this much?"

"Still is...there is a problem with this game?"

With this question in mind, Chen Yan came home, locked the door, and placed the instant noodles on the floor. He then pulled out his phone, launched the game, and waited to see what changes had occurred.

The main interface of the game appeared.

Inspecting it, Chen Yan discovered that the game has new changes.

 The most conspicuous is the value in the upper right corner.

Originally, the "favorability" and "wealth value" points were both zero.

However, now...

[Yu Qiaoqiao Favorability: 3]

[Player wealth: 11.5]

This...

Chen Yan clicked on the Favorability and as a result, a series of messages sprouted.

[Acquaintance: Favorability +1]

[Helped solve a problem: Favorability +2]

Chen Yan frowned, and then suddenly an amazing idea was born in his heart.

He clicked on the wealth value, and there was an additional detail in the wealth value.

[Convenience Store Voucher: Wealth value +11.5, 10 times withdrawal is possible.]

Chen Yan set off a huge wave in his heart, and his hands trembled slightly.

After a while, he restrained the excitement in his heart and lightly clicked the [Withdraw] button.

Moments later, a sweet woman's voice rang on his cell phone, "The payment is guaranteed to be one hundred and fifteen yuan.” (T/L: $18)
