Welcome to the Misogyny Game

Ding! The game is updating. Please log in at 10:00 to check.

Normally, this game updates from 6 AM to almost 9 AM on Thursdays, but today it started updating at 9 AM.

It happened so suddenly and without warning. Luckily, the game hadn't been updated when she went to buy food.

She stared at the inaccessible cheat page, gazing helplessly at the sky.

The rain tonight, accompanied by lightning, has been falling continuously.

10 points.

Liu Chaoque, holding an umbrella, couldn't help but laugh as he looked at the awkward expressions of the two people behind him.

Here's what happened: there were hardly any people around at night, and Liu Chaoque felt it was unfair to leave Xi Jingrong alone. There was thunder and lightning outside, and even if he could endure loneliness, it wasn't a good quality for her.

"Shall I take you home?" she suggested.

"No need," Xi Jingrong refused at first.

Liu Chaoque's expression changed instantly, and he said pitifully, "But I'm afraid to walk alone at night."

"This isn't..."

Xi Jingrong turned his head and saw Mu Li staring intently at the wall where no color could be seen, as if she had seen something interesting.

"Gone, gone."

Liu Chaoque pushed him out of the hospital.

“They have nurses to take care of them, so you don’t need to worry so much. Besides, you’re all alone, and you can’t get much done tonight. This isn’t an experiment where you need to work overtime to follow up on the procedures. You might as well go home and get some sleep. Maybe things will turn out differently when you wake up the next day.”

Both of them understood that tonight's events were related to the encounter between the male and female protagonists. Therefore, removing the two troublesome machines might be a very good treatment method for the injured students.

Of course, she could leave on her own, but she actually wanted to ask some other questions. After all, the male lead was someone who was about the same age as her.

I can't believe it! It's a school-themed otome game, and there's only one male lead. The others all have jobs—either CEOs, lawyers, or photographers…

I can't see them when I want to, and I always run into them unexpectedly when I don't want to.

Mu Li then slipped out from somewhere, and the three of them went downstairs. Looking at the rain pouring down like columns of water, they all fell silent.

"Was the rain this heavy when we first arrived?" Liu Chaoque asked, puzzled.

Mu Li looked at Xi Jingrong, her meaning clear, while Liu Chaoque shook his head inwardly.

Xi Jingrong turned to go back to the second-floor corridor, but Liu Chaoque and Mu Li grabbed him.

"So what if it's raining heavily? That's easy. Wait for me a moment, Mu Li, keep an eye on Xi Jingrong!"

10:10

After Liu Chaoque finished speaking, he walked into the hospital, leaving the two of them looking at each other in bewilderment.

Xi Jingrong looked at Mu Li, as if he had a thousand things to say, but in the end he only uttered one sentence.

"What...is your relationship with Que Siman?"

Mu Li touched her hair, her eyes narrowed slightly, a hint of aggression mixed with nonchalance: "What do you think our relationship is?"

Xi Jingrong fell silent again.

Mu Li asked, "You recognized me?"

The two knew perfectly well who the person was.

"You know her too?" Xi Jingrong asked in surprise.

"You talk like you're the only one who knows," Mu Li snorted. "It's not just you and her who had that special time together."

Xi Jingrong said, "That's fine too." During the time he wasn't there, she also had friends with whom she laughed and had fun.

When Liu Chaoque brought out three different colored raincoats and a large umbrella that could be used to sell clothes and pants without getting them wet, the two fell silent.

"Where did you get this?" Mu Li quickly took the large umbrella from him. It was probably just bought from a vendor outside, as the umbrella was still wet.

"Of course I bought it at a high price." Liu Chaoque clutched his chest with a pained expression: "I finally found a vendor who was packing up his umbrella and closing his stall because of the rain, but he still raised the price on the spot and charged me 500."

"And what about this raincoat?" Xi Jingrong took out two raincoats, one bright blue and one bright yellow, and very cunningly handed the yellow one to Mu Li.

Mu Li: I just love wearing yellow; it gives me a feeling of ascending the throne.

He accepted it readily, without the "furious outburst" that Xi Jingrong had imagined, though he was somewhat disappointed.

"Uh." Liu Chaoque rubbed his hands guiltily.

"You didn't steal it, did you?" Mu Li blinked. "You can't steal this. You can't just buy a new one at the store for that little bit of money."

"Haha."

She gave an awkward laugh: "I didn't steal it, I borrowed it from someone else." But she couldn't say who that "someone else" was.

"Alright, we'll return it together tomorrow. Let's use this first." Mu Li put on the bright yellow raincoat first.

Xi Jingrong had no objections. Regardless of where the raincoat came from, even if it was stolen, he was willing to share the blame.

Actually, all of these, except for the umbrella, were borrowed from Nan Jiang Wulan. This update has increased the number of Food Souls, so she went to the bathroom to draw some and also to find out about the changes to the cheat codes after this update.

Since the game was updated with the cheat code, once the Food Soul she drew was upgraded to three stars, all of his items could be shared with others.

And coincidentally, this new character has a hat, and she can choose the material and color, which turns it into a raincoat.

Then, she borrowed a banana tree from a saury to hold the large umbrella, and completely modified it, turning it into a red and green beach umbrella.

Xi Jingrong held a large umbrella, and Mu Li stood in front of Liu Chaoque to block the wind. The three of them struggled to make their way home and parted ways at the intersection.

Xi Jingrong originally intended to hand the large umbrella to them, since he was almost home anyway.

Before they could even speak, the two of them had vanished.

No, are they born in the Year of the Rabbit? Queque is wearing a formal dress!

Upon returning home, Liu Chaoque and his companion inevitably got their clothes wet.

To persuade Xi Jingrong to accept their kindness, they ran quite a distance, and their shoes even got wet.

Since the saury-shaped handheld item was integrated with the real-world material, it wouldn't disappear or cause any abnormalities. Therefore, Liu Chaoque confidently placed it with Xi Jingrong, and also to test whether her involvement was necessary for the bad things to happen.

After all, as the female lead, even though she hasn't met the male lead, many things, big and small, have happened in her life.

To put it bluntly, this thing is like her eyes.

Manman, you've gone astray too.

Mo Yun brought over towels and wiped their faces.

Mu Li pushed her to take a shower first, while she took a large towel and dried her hair.

"You guys..." Mo Yun jumped onto the table and meowed, "Did you talk about it?"

Mu Li paused in drying her hair, looked at Mo Yun, and smiled: "Why do you say that?"

Mo Yun said, "Then I'm relieved."

He jumped off the table, yawning, and prepared to go to sleep.

Mu Li remained silent.

Perhaps they have a bond deeper than love.

Liu Chaoque was right about one thing: although their first meeting was partly accidental, from the moment he saw her in the supermarket, he thought: even if he were treated like a pet, he would want to stay by her side. This had nothing to do with the female lead's halo; it was simply a match of energies and his secret joy—joy at her appearance and joy at her presence.

They didn't have any three lifetimes together, nor did they miss out on any lovers; they simply used up all their luck just to see her.

The little girl, who was afraid of cats but loved them, had followed them around since she was little, going to school and playing together. But an accident separated them forever. She was too young to remember that time, but she still remembered that she had become a stray cat that could be seen everywhere, stretching out her belly, wanting her to pet her.

He transformed into a sparrow chirping on a branch, fluttering his wings, just wanting to catch a glimpse of her through the glass.

He transformed into that little black dog, his two legs flapping, carrying her across the stream and up the mountain peak, just like when they were children, playing and frolicking together.

In the end, he turned into a lion cat and was trapped in the game. He wandered around since childhood but could never reach her vicinity. Perhaps he didn't try hard enough. He worked hard to cultivate into human form and found a rich person willing to take him in. He knew that money could do anything.

But he's already rich enough, so why hasn't he found her yet?

When the tycoon passed away, his family was torn apart by the inheritance dispute. Mu Li snatched the cake that was rightfully hers and began a world tour.

He was skilled in martial arts, and even if he encountered an assassination attempt, he could escape unscathed. As she passed by that destined supermarket, Mu Li thought, "Could it be that he has been living the life of a tycoon for too long and has forgotten what it is like for ordinary people, so heaven is punishing him so that he will never see her again?"

To be honest, when he and she first met at the supermarket, Mu Li didn't recognize Liu Chaoque. After all, it had been so long, Liu Chaoque must be in his seventies or eighties by now.

But he had a gut feeling that he would regret it if he didn't catch up with her.

He regrets it now. Back then, his competitive spirit got the better of him, and he got into a fight with Liu Chaoque. Anyway, the female lead is usually surrounded by either the male lead or the villain, and he was basically a villain from the start.

Unexpectedly... she really was him.

He quickly realized that Si Man was Liu Chaoque, from her familiar little gestures and her timid demeanor when facing dogs and cats.

Also, this person can't shake the habit of meowing at cats, and has a strong sense of justice and curiosity.

This is also the reason he confirmed it.

Even though the name Liu Chaoque is a forbidden word in this world, he will silently remember it in his heart.

Xi Jingrong, this isn't a secret only you know.
