Socially awkward female cultivator survives in the cultivation world through online games

Just then, Chu Yunyi seemed to suddenly remember something and asked,

"Oh, right, Hua Hua, actually I have a few more questions I want to ask you. Didn't you say you liked me? So... when exactly did you start liking me?"

As she said this, a hint of anticipation flickered in her eyes.

Because of her introverted personality and slight inferiority complex, Chu Yunyi had never dared to hope that one day someone would fall in love with her, so at this moment she was especially eager to know the exact moment when the other person's heart was moved.

Faced with Chu Yunyi's curious question, Hua Qi pondered for a moment, then replied with a focused and sincere expression.

"If we have to pinpoint a specific time, it would be about six months ago."

"Huh? Six months ago? I hadn't transmigrated yet! And didn't you not play this game for a year? You've only been back for a month now, and you're telling me it was six months ago? You liked me before you even came back to the game?"

Hua Qi's sudden words left Chu Yunyi completely bewildered and shocked.

Her eyes widened, her face filled with disbelief. How could this person like her so inexplicably?

Chu Yunyi's mind was buzzing, her thoughts a jumbled mess.

She simply couldn't understand what Hua Qi was saying; it was more bizarre and absurd than a fairy tale!

Six months ago? She wasn't even in this world! Besides, Hua Qi has been offline for so long and hasn't logged back in. How could he suddenly fall in love with her?

That's an outrageous statement!

"Here's what happened: Eight months ago, I accidentally discovered that my fiancée had been doing some bad things behind my back. This hit me very hard and made me feel extremely depressed and frustrated."

For the next two months, I couldn't eat or drink, racking my brains trying to figure out why, but I still couldn't understand it. Those days were truly unbearable; it felt like the whole world had lost its color.

At this point, Hua Qi paused slightly, his gaze dimming as he continued,

"Later, I don't know why, your image suddenly appeared in my mind. Maybe it was because I had a deep impression of you when we played games together. So, I started to unconsciously compare you with my fiancée."

But I was still somewhat unwilling to accept it, so I eventually investigated my fiancée further. What I found was shocking. As the investigation deepened, I uncovered even more shocking and disappointing truths. Only then did I fully realize that our relationship had reached its end, and there was no way to salvage it.

Hua Qi raised his head, gazed into Chu Yunyi's eyes, and said sincerely,

"To be honest, when I thought of you back then, my so-called 'liking' wasn't that deep. It was just that in that helpless moment, I subconsciously felt that if it were you, perhaps all this messy stuff wouldn't have happened."

But regardless, I did have that thought back then. And when I saw you again, through further contact and understanding, I discovered you are truly wonderful. Gradually, this initial attraction grew stronger and eventually turned into love. So, I followed my true feelings and expressed my affection to you.

Hua Qi spoke at length, as if she wanted to pour out all her stories and emotions.

As he spoke, Chu Yunyi gradually understood the various reasons hidden behind the matter.
