Locking away my heart and love! Going back to 2000 to be a top student again.

Liu Yun has a very delicate and pretty appearance, completely unlike the ugly woman she jokingly described herself as in the group chat.

“And me,” the girl, who was described as having a face that could launch a thousand ships, hurriedly introduced herself: “I am Feifei, my name is Tang Feifei.”

Upon their first meeting, they showed no signs of awkwardness, behaving as if they were old friends, completely at ease with each other.

We've known each other online for a year and chat every day. Our personalities are pretty much the same as what we showed in the group chat.

Xu Su greeted them all, and after a few words, they quickly found themselves in a familiar atmosphere.

Sika, Liu Yun, Feifei and several other girls are all very familiar with Xu Su.

On the boys' side...

Xu Su looked at the boys' group opposite her, scanned them, and asked with a puzzled expression, "Which one is my master?"

“Here…” The tall, thin young man to Si Xuan’s right raised his hand obediently, like a student being called on by a teacher, and answered, “I am Nanyang, my real name is Yang Nan, Mu Nan Nan.”

Despite Yang Nan's dominance in the game, she's surprisingly shy in real life.

Xu Su glanced at him twice, greeted him as "Master," and then quickly looked away when she saw him looking like a shy little wife.

Thanks to Shen Chen, she now has an inexplicable confidence in her charm, and is afraid that she might inadvertently stir up someone's heart again.

The boys all started to tease him, especially the two from Beiyue Youshan. They were incredibly jealous when they heard Xu Su call him "master." They were both one of the four elders, so why was Nanyang the one to be Xu Su's master?

They also wanted to be called "Master" by a beautiful woman.

They had already forgotten how shocked they were when Xu Su was still a newbie last year, and Si Xuan asked Nan Yang to take her as his apprentice. If they hadn't always agreed with Si Xuan's decision as their leader, they probably would have raised objections.

Of the twenty-odd people, most were locals from Beijing. They had attended many previous gatherings and kept in touch privately. For example, Liu Yun and Fei Fei were very familiar with each other. Only Xu Su and Xi Ka, who were previously from other provinces, were meeting everyone for the first time.

Since they were all young people, they had a lot in common, and the dinner table quickly became lively.

Xu Su and Si Xuan, who arrived late, were forced by Xi Ka to drink three cups of wine as a punishment.

She personally filled Xu Su's glass with red wine: "I called you in the group yesterday but you didn't respond, and you're late today. It's not too much to ask you to have three glasses to apologize, is it?"

Then he looked at Si Xuan. Since they were too far apart to pour wine, he raised the wine bottle in his hand and said, "The sect leader should also be punished. As the leader, you not only fail to set an example, but you are also late!"

"Don't call me 'Sect Leader' when we meet offline, just call me Si Xuan." Si Xuan held his wine glass and asked them, "Xu Su, can you drink? We don't have a rule about urging people to drink. If you can't drink, you can have tea instead."

After Si Xuan finished asking his question, Xu Su had already picked up her wine glass. Hearing his words, she looked over, but couldn't very well admit that she was a drunkard who couldn't live without alcohol.

She paused, then raised her hand towards Si Xuan, speaking with righteous indignation: "Qingxuan Sect didn't look down on me as a newbie back then, accepted me into the sect, and taught me so much. It's rare to meet, so even if I can't drink, I have to have a few drinks with everyone today."

Speaking of which, when she was playing the game "Immortal Continent," Si Xuan saved her twice.

Later, he didn't know what got into him, but he made her, a complete novice who hadn't even reached the Foundation Establishment stage, the top disciple of Nanyang, and she instantly became an elite member of the sect.

After Xu Su finished her glass, Xi Ka poured her another one. In this way, she and Si Xuan were punished by drinking three glasses of red wine.

On an empty stomach, after drinking three cups of wine, she frowned slightly.

Hurry up and use your chopsticks to pick up some food to fill your stomach.

When she saw Jessica pick up the bottle again, she looked at her pitifully and said, "I haven't had breakfast yet. Let me eat something before I drink."

Sika paused, cleared her throat, and said, "Susu, don't try to seduce me with your beauty. I won't be easily swayed by you. I prefer handsome men to beautiful women."

"..." Xu Su paused for a moment, thinking of her explosive and scumbag remarks.

Sika leaned closer and whispered meaningfully, "Someone like the sect leader is just perfect. Putting aside whether he's handsome or not, just his hands, his legs, his waist... tsk..."

The final "tsk" conveyed a meaning that Xu Su, as someone with experience, instantly understood.

She was speechless. "...I remember you weren't like this before. What about your crush? Have you completely let go of him?"

“What else can I do if I can’t let go of what I can’t have?” Sika sighed. “I’m so young, I can’t keep making things so difficult for myself and going down a dead end.”

Very good, you can take it and let it go.

Xu Su secretly admired her. If Xi Zirong could be as open-minded as Jessica, she would have so many fewer worries.

“I’ve come to terms with it. The reason why the white moonlight is the white moonlight is because it is unattainable.” Sika picked up her wine glass and drank it all in one gulp. She said with a touch of melancholy, “He will always be the pure land in my heart. No matter how good other men are, they are all just fleeting clouds.”

Xu Su couldn't help but feel touched, thinking that she was still the same devoted and stubborn girl she used to be.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she finished speaking, Xika's gloomy expression vanished. She smiled and raised her glass to Beiyue, who was sitting in the group of boys opposite her, and said in a muffled voice, "I didn't expect that besides the sect leader, there are quite a few handsome guys in our group. This one is very good."

Xu Su: "..."

Her feelings were misplaced.

Bei Yue's real name is Yue Sen. He wears half-rimmed glasses and has a refined and gentle demeanor, which is quite different from his image in the game, but he is indeed quite handsome.

Sika shifted her focus to chatting with Beiyue across the round table, while Xu Su, relieved to have been spared, prepared to eat her meal properly.

Last night was chaotic, and she had no appetite for dinner. She also missed breakfast today and was starving. She spotted a plate of pastries on the table, turned the plate around, picked up a piece, and her eyes lit up.

good to eat!

Xu Su ate three pastries in a row to finally fill her stomach, and then ladled out a bowl of soup and drank a couple of sips. She looked quite out of place among the group of people chatting happily.

Soon, people came to invite her for drinks. Those who could meet up here were basically the most active in the group, and most of them had some connection with Xu Su. They had either given her advice or stood up for Xu Su. She couldn't show favoritism, so she accepted almost all of them.

Midway through, I even offered a toast to Nanyang to thank him for his dedicated teaching over the past year.

Before long, the two bottles of red wine were empty. Liu Yun looked at Xu Su, whose face hadn't changed at all, and exclaimed in surprise, "Su Su, you're not that old, but you have an unusually high alcohol tolerance. I can't even drink that much."

"Not at all," Xu Su said casually, though she wasn't drunk yet, the alcohol had made her a bit careless: "I have a very low alcohol tolerance, and I can be quite scary when I get drunk."

"Really?" Liu Yun looked at her expression. "Then you should drink less."
