Welcome to the Misogyny Game

Time passed quietly, and after a busy week, Master Liu finally got to Saturday. Mu Li said that she hadn't had a chance to go out and have fun, so they couldn't go to the night market, but they could go to other places during the day.

One good thing about university is that there's no homework. Except for the last-minute cramming at the end of the semester, you can flexibly choose what to do during your free time.

Liu Chaoque and Mu Li, wearing sunglasses and accompanied by Mo Yun, went shopping together in casual clothes.

Mu Li wanted to eat Northeastern cuisine, and Liu Chaoque wanted to eat stew in an iron pot. The two hit it off immediately, got up early, and went to the market to buy breakfast.

Neither of them liked greasy food, so Liu Chaoque, who had bought fried dough sticks, shared half of one with Mu Li.

Mu Li: "Give it to Mo Yun."

Sman: "Isn't this animal abuse?"

Mu Li: "If you give me food, it's not animal cruelty?"

Mu Li reluctantly finished the last half of the fried dough stick.

Mu Li ordered a bit too much black bean porridge, so he put some in Liu Chaoque's bowl and then secretly stole a preserved vegetable and braised pork bun.

"No." Liu Chaoque was speechless. She protested, "I want to eat this!"

Mu Li smiled mischievously: "Here's a red bean bun for you."

Then he put his favorite red bean bun on her plate.

"I want to eat meat!"

Mo Yun shook his head. "Hmm, this fish has a lot of bones."

"Alright, alright." Seeing that the other person was really angry, Mu Li explained the reason: "You ordered two braised pork belly buns with preserved mustard greens and one vegetable bun. You ate like this last time, and didn't you tell me it was too greasy?"

"Uh," Liu Chaoque said, "Then I don't want to eat red bean buns either."

“Red beans are so delicious,” Mu Li retorted.

“But red beans are so sweet, I prefer salty ones,” Liu Chaoque refused.

"Really don't want it?" Mu Li asked.

“No,” Liu Chaoque replied.

"Then I'll eat it." He made a move to take the red bean bun back.

For some reason, Liu Chaoque found the red bean buns suddenly tempting. "Never mind, they're already on my plate." She picked up a red bean bun and tasted it: "It's alright, not too sweet."

Muli: The plan is in place.

Mo Yun wiped his mouth and asked, "Have you two finished eating?"

As the main shopper, Mu Li headed straight for the affordable luxury women's clothing. Liu Chaoque scratched his head, a little puzzled: "You want to change into women's clothing?"

Feeling as if a flock of crows flew by, Mu Li covered her face speechlessly: "Why would I buy women's clothes? I bought them for you."

Liu Chaoque: "It's just a holiday, and I have enough clothes."

She refused to buy women's clothing from brand-name stores. In her mind, there was only one word: expensive. With her meager money, she needed to buy food. If she spent a thousand or so yuan, it would only buy her a piece of clothing, at most a good brand and comfortable fabric.

Speaking of fabrics, she recalled the silk garments she had seen on display when she last visited Suzhou.

She didn't ask about the price; she just overheard it and thought it was outrageously expensive.

All she could afford to buy was a piece of cloth.

"Aren't you going to the cultural performance tonight? I need to buy you two things." In no time, Mu Li had come up with a reason.

"This isn't a banquet or a performance; I'm just an ordinary spectator," Liu Chaoque couldn't hold back any longer.

"Come on, I've made a lot of money lately and have nowhere to spend it. Just consider it a shopping spree." Mu Li pulled Liu Chaoque into the upscale store without further ado.

The soft lighting made the store look magnificent, and rows of colorful clothes hung on racks. The outfits worn by the mannequins looked very luxurious.

Liu Chaoque glanced at the prices and immediately felt like fleeing.

"No way, a tiny crop top costs 600?" Liu Chaoque looked at the mini-skirt sailor uniform again. "Hmm, excuse me."

"Which one do you like?" Entering the women's clothing store, Mu Li didn't seem reserved. He put his hands in his pockets and scanned the environment. Actually, he wasn't particularly satisfied, but seeing Si Man so timid and making a fuss over such a small amount of money, he wondered if the lowest price was over ten thousand. Wouldn't she have a heart attack and collapse on the spot?

First, see what type of clothes suit her, so he can have a reference. See if the tailor who usually designs clothes for her can make a few custom-made pieces.

After the initial shock subsided, Liu Chaoque unexpectedly calmed down. Although expensive clothes can't fill an empty stomach, some of them were indeed quite tempting.

It's just a piece of clothing that costs a few thousand yuan. You can afford to buy it once or twice, right?

She's really gotten carried away...

Liu Chaoque wore a long, smoky purple dress with a fluffy white shawl, which looked quite nice.

She changed into a black dress, but Liu Chaoque felt that all black dresses were pretty much the same.

Liu Chaoque was having a great time trying on clothes. Mu Li brought a stool from somewhere, with his back to the dressing room. Only when he asked if he was done would he turn around and give his opinion on the clothes Liu Chaoque was wearing.

"How about trying on this green one?" the counselor suggested with a smile.

Liu Chaoque said "okay" and went inside to change his clothes.

The green outfit was paired with a grayish woven vest with five-colored threads along the edges. Liu Chaoque looked like a forest elf when she wore it.

"I think this looks pretty good." Mu Li wanted to buy the dress and then get her hair done later.

Liu Chaoque turned around in front of the mirror, her skirt swaying slightly.

“I think so too,” she nodded.

"Then I'll pay for the few I like, and you pay for the ones you like?" Mu Li asked.

"Huh? Okay then." Liu Chaoque hadn't even picked out anything she liked yet, but unexpectedly, all the clothes she was satisfied with had been paid for by Mu Li.

"Do you have a card reader here?" He walked to the counter, lowered his head, took out a black card with a gold border, and asked casually.

"Oh, yes, we do." The clerk beamed, swiped Mu Li's card, printed out the receipt, wrapped it in a gift bag, and even asked if she wanted home delivery service.

Mu Li looked at the five pieces of clothing, nodded, gave the address, and then left with Liu Chaoque.

"Didn't you say I should pay for what I like?" Liu Chaoque pouted.

“But I also like you wearing those clothes.” Mu Li shrugged, looking troubled. “There’s nothing I can do, our tastes are too similar.”

Liu Chaoque: "Alright."

Mu Li looked around and saw something. His eyes lit up, and he nudged Liu Chaoque: "Come on, let's go play the claw machine."

"Claw machine!" Liu Chaoque didn't hesitate to pay for all the money for Mu Li and walked excitedly toward the claw machine.

After passing through the gashapon machines and scratch cards, the two arrived at the claw machines against the wall. There were several kinds of claw machines; some had little dragons, some had little octopuses that could change faces, and some...

"Manman, come quick, watch me catch a dinosaur for you." Muli chose the green Stegosaurus.

Liu Chaoque looked at the locations where the dragons were distributed, then at the traps, and said with some worry, "Can we catch them?"

"Yes." Mu Li nodded firmly.

"Don't make sure it's a guaranteed minimum at the end," Liu Chaoque mocked.

"Hmph, just you wait and see, I'm a claw machine master." He inserted a coin and began to focus on finding his target. He calculated the landing point of the claw. The first time, he tested the tightness of the claw and failed to grab it. The second time, the claw fell at a slightly strange angle, then grabbed the Stegosaurus's body and lifted it up.

The clamp moved a little slowly, and instead of loosening, it caught on the neck, causing the Stegosaurus to fall easily into the outlet.

Liu Chaoque was stunned. What kind of operation was this?

Mu Li proudly raised her head: "How about that? Aren't I amazing?"

Liu Chaoque clapped his hands and gave a thumbs up: "Amazing, amazing."

"Everyone says I'm a claw machine master." He waved the Stegosaurus in front of her, smiling, and said, "Do you like it?"

Liu Chaoque: "Not bad."

"Is 'okay' a way of saying you like it or not?" Mu Li didn't know: "You're so perfunctory."

Liu Chaoque explained earnestly, "It is cute, but I prefer other things." She pointed to the bright yellow little dragon and said, "For example, this one."

Mu Li tried twice and caught it. He handed it to Liu Chaoque and asked, "What else do you want to catch?"

Holding the baby dragon, Liu Chaoque said somewhat embarrassedly, "Actually, I'd like to know how you caught it."

"Hmm, this requires some mathematical knowledge."

Anyway, Liu Chaoque seemed to have learned what he said, but he couldn't remember how to combine those numbers.

Mu Li thought for a moment and decided to teach her step by step: "First, do it like this... then do it like this."

Liu Chaoque and Mu Li watched intently as the panda holding the bamboo was caught by the trap, anxiously watching the trap sway and fall down.

They sighed and began a new round of arrests: "This time we'll put them here."

Following the force of his hand, Liu Chaoque reached out to grab the panda, which had been moved slightly. Watching his paw wobble, he moved the panda a little further.

In the end, Mu Li paid 15 yuan, and Liu Chaoque got the panda.

Liu Chaoque: "Although there wasn't a second arrest, it still didn't exceed 20." She was very satisfied; not losing was a gain.

Mu Li smiled without saying a word.

Mo Yun: "Is this claw machine that fun? These two have been sitting here for quite a while."

Once Mu Li gets her hands on a claw machine, there's no going back. Even the giant plush toy in the arcade, Mu Li grabbed two without hesitation. Liu Chaoque took one, and she took one.

The children and adults in the arcade all stared blankly at the two, perhaps thinking, "So you can actually grab things from this claw machine."

They visited every claw machine, and their bags were almost full, before Liu Chaoque stopped them.

But it's pretty cool.

After they finished making their catch, both of them were too busy to leave, so they asked someone in the same city to send the dolls back before they returned to the mall.

As a stingy CEO, Mu Li said, "I have the right to decide what to do with the things I catch myself, let alone the dolls that Manman caught."

Even though that flash delivery is more expensive.

"I'll make you a doll wall when we get back," Mu Li said, thinking about where to place the dolls.

"Why don't we buy a plastic tank to store these dolls? It'll keep them from getting dusty," Liu Chaoque suggested. She felt that nailing the dolls to the wall created a kind of uncanny valley effect, especially since some of them even had eyeballs.

"That works too." Mu Li accepted her suggestion. It just so happened that Liu Chaoque wanted to keep fish, but didn't want to take care of the fish tank recently. They could buy an acrylic fish tank to put the dolls in first, and take them out when she felt like it.

Unaware of Mu Li's good intentions, Liu Chaoque started looking at the iron pot stew shop. After all, it was almost 11 o'clock now.

She stood in front of the jewelry store, lost in thought.

"Do you like this Hetian jade bracelet?" Mu Li leaned against the jewelry counter and asked, pointing to a string of Hetian jade bamboo bracelets in the glass.

Liu Chaoque looked at them. Compared to the jade with white clouds and green hues, she still preferred the pure gold flower sea bracelet over there, mainly because it held its value, or rather, the pearl and gold bracelet over there.

Seeing her eyes, Mu Li knew what she was thinking. He said, "Pure gold doesn't suit your dress."

"Choose the green jade."

Liu Chaoque: "Alright."

But as for green, apart from the purest imperial green, she didn't particularly like jade that could be made into the shape of bamboo joints. In the end, she took a fancy to a men's bracelet and asked Mu Li if she liked it.

“I like everything you bought,” Mu Li said.

Liu Chaoque frowned: "Really?" She just couldn't believe it.

"Really." Mu Li nodded earnestly.

"Alright," Liu Chaoque said. She compared the bracelet to Mu Li's hand and had the shop assistant take it off so he could try it on. Finally, she settled on a 108-bead multi-strand agarwood prayer bead.

Mu Li finally found the bracelet that Liu Chaoque liked, a very simple light green bracelet.

He also added Liu Chaoque's favorite gold beads, which were said to be lucky beads. He chose 12 beads and also bought a small gold Pixiu, mainly because the large ones didn't fit her small beaded string.

Seeing how he wanted to add something to everything for Liu Chaoque, Liu Chaoque felt embarrassed. No, buddy, are you playing with a bracelet of eight-treasure porridge?

After much persuasion, she managed to preserve the purity of the bracelet, keeping it only in gold and green.

This can be considered another form of DIY jewelry making at a gold shop.

While eating the stew, Mu Li admired the beads that Liu Chaoque had picked out for him, touching them from time to time, showing that he really liked them.

Liu Chaoque felt a little uncomfortable with something on his left hand and touched it as well.

The two of them felt uneasy, as if their left hands were bewitched. Mo Yun Miao Miao suggested: If you're not used to wearing them, you can take them off.

In reality, Smile finally remembered that Liu Chaoque had two games that required her to check in on time. Of course, it wasn't her who remembered, but rather Wang Qige who casually mentioned that Liu Chaoque had been playing a game for three years. If she really came back and missed the check-in, she estimated that she would have to spend a lot of diamonds to make up for it.

Even if this seems meaningless.

Liu Chaoque: "My 3-year check-in! My skin, my UR curls, my achievements!"

Smile calculated the number of days she had been in this world, hissed softly, and felt an invisible pressure that made her scalp tingle. She hurriedly opened the game interface. As a first-time player of this game, Smile subconsciously clicked on the daily tasks and selected the activity report.

Surprisingly, the game didn't have any days that needed to be missed, as if Liu Chaoque had been checking in all the time.

Smile's pupils contracted. She clicked on another game and found an option to make up for missed signatures.

"So Liu Chaoque has entered the game and is still playing it?" Wang Qige almost lost her voice. She quickly composed herself, but her voice still betrayed her excitement: "Quickly check that personal information. Did she leave a message on it? Or you can leave one; perhaps Liu Chaoque in the game will see it."

Personal information? Messages? Smile stared blankly at the game interface. She'd never played it before, and she didn't know how!

I clicked around randomly and almost bought some magic crystals.

Wang Qige gave instructions over the phone, and it was only with great difficulty that she managed to get her to leave a message.

For this reason, she downloaded the seventeenth again.

If they could really have a conversation, she thought, what's wrong with playing around with Seventeen? She could just treat it as another micro-chat interface.

What's a bit funny is that even after Liu Chaoque got to the game interface, her obsession was still with Seventeen. That's why she could still play in the game, if it were really her who logged into Seventeen.

Speaking of Seventeen, Wang Qige instructed Smile: "Since someone is always clearing daily tasks, you should log in at night to check, preferably after 11 pm. If one day the daily tasks are not cleared, you can help clear them. Log in less during the rest of the time. By the way, log in for her every day to complete the daily tasks and save up some diamonds so she can draw when she comes back."

“If you find it troublesome, just give me that account, and I’ll save it for her,” Wang Qige added.

“No trouble at all,” Smile said with a smile. “It’s just two games. We’ll surprise her when she gets back.”

"Thank you." Wang Qige smiled.

While Liu Chaoque was eating, she was unaware that Wang Qige and Smile, who were in a different world, were going to great lengths to help her with her two games.

They didn't realize that they had finally remembered the Seventeen Games they had forgotten in the corner, and that her cheat system had reconnected after a short while, and that there was now a message under her personal information.

"**How ​​are you?"

And the extra red dots in the friend adding section.
