Is the person you sculpt as cute as me?

After achieving the highest achievement as a writer, he unknowingly gained the title of "World Poet" because of the rich language he used. Therefore, whenever he is mentioned at home and abroad, people know who he is talking about.

The deer's expression changed from surprise to astonishment without him noticing.

If Yu Man was not lying, then she was the child of a rare great writer and should have lived an extremely exaggerated life.

"My father felt that he had the ability to take care of my life, but he didn't want me to muddle through life in my comfort zone, so he let me experience the world on my own."

"……What's the meaning?"

"Literally, kick me out of my home and throw me into the wilderness of society to go through all sorts of experiences."

Yu Man continued.

"He has a theory that says people waste time in comfort. The length of life is fixed, but people can enrich the details of their lives through rich experiences, thus living a fuller life than others... So, experience, experience—waste as little time as possible—that is the meaning of life in this world."

This time it was Xiaolu who remained silent, because the poems and essays that had been passed down through the ages did mention insights like these.

It is often quoted to encourage people not to waste time.

But what Yu Man said was more detailed.

"He said he wanted to throw me out of my comfort zone... Damn, it wasn't comfortable at all. He was still living the life he had before he became famous. I woke myself up to go to school every day, cooked my own meals, supervised my studies, and planned my own life. It was already very fulfilling, and then he was fucking thrown out of the house..."

When Yu Man thought of this, she felt helpless.

Although... as a child, I can surprisingly understand it - alas.

But at that time, Yu Man asked his father, even if he became crazy about playing games, stopped making progress, or even indulged himself in society, hacking people or being hacked to death. Or for example, he was abducted to work as a slave in an illegal factory, or became a thief because of poverty...

As a father, can he accept all this?

“It can all become a valuable experience.”

The poet accepted it.

"Rather than being pushed forward by the social matrix and unconsciously becoming a nail in it, blinding both yourself and the world, being at the bottom at least allows you to look up at the blindness of the world."

Just like that, Yu Man, who didn't want to degenerate or work in a black factory, simply became addicted to games.

It just so happens that there is such a game worth indulging in.

Yu Man didn't say anything more because it wasn't interesting.

She had no worries. Even if Xiaolu told others, most people would probably not believe it.

Even if one believes it, the only one who will be troubled is the world poet.

Apparently, Xiaolu was dumbfounded for so long that Yu Man made ten enchanted backpacks.

"...What about Eel? Make a living by playing games?" Her expression was very sad, and her words were wrapped in an inexplicable concern.

"Well, let's leave it at that for now." This is also an experience.

As long as we can get through this Spring Festival, the road ahead will always be wider and wider.

There was another long silence - but the deer's eyes flashed with a strange color.

She stood up, leaped down from the mountain of cotton, linen and snow, and returned to the street...

As if to cover up his embarrassment.

Not long after, Yu Man received a message: "I heard that you are a very skilled ice mage player, and you are well versed in the content written on the official website."

"……What?"

"I'm a tank player by myself, and I'm really short on damage output. I'm a little scared to go to illegal areas."

After reading this, Yu Man couldn't help but laugh.

On the street, under the wall not far away, the deer's back is hidden... What kind of expression is she hiding?

Yu Man didn't refuse the kindness: "Oh - then boss, are you looking for someone to play with?"

"Well, I need an expert who can dig me out if I'm in danger... like being swallowed and digested by a snake."

"I happen to have such qualifications."

"Then I'll hire you."

"Okay."

The fawn turned around, seemingly reconciled with its shyness.

She waved to Yu Man, who was not far away, and quickly typed, "I'll give you some extra allowance during the holidays... What do you want to eat? I'll pay for it for you."

Perhaps it was the embarrassment, or perhaps it was the atmosphere of the Spring Festival, but her kindness quietly melted Yu Man's self-esteem a little bit.

"...Can it be a little more expensive?"

After replying, Yu Man pinched her face...

Oh, is it that thick?

The deer seemed to smile: "Let me see how expensive it is."

"Then... half a roast goose with rice... is that okay?"

"...Alas, brother, what a life you've been living. I'm not going to complain about my life anymore."

The fawn seemed so stimulated that it switched into brother mode.

"Order whatever you want, and I'll pay for it without even blinking. It's a shame you're not in Guangzhou, or I'd take you to eat some real roast goose and some pot cakes. And then you can have some shrimp wonton and bamboo noodles in the morning, wouldn't that be delicious?"

"..."

Yu Man froze—

"WeChat—come on! After I send this, I'll add you on WeChat. See you there."

"..."

A long silence enveloped Yu Man, and she didn't dare to reply.

"Why aren't you talking, brother?"

"...Well, I'm not that hungry. I'm having a pretty good life."

"?"

"Dude, I was just kidding you. It's not that bad, haha."

"...???"

If you add WeChat... and send a payment, your address will probably be exposed.

By then, not only will I be embarrassed, but Xiaolu will also be embarrassed.

But the strange thing is, the more you want to hide something, the easier it is to be exposed.

Was it the roast goose rice? Was it because his previous cover-up was too foolish? Or was it because his facial expressions and actions were being observed?

There was snow all over the sky, but Yu Man was sweating profusely.

——“You…are in Guangzhou?”

"No no."

"...You're really here." Xiaolu was stunned. "Why is that?!"

At this point, Yu Man no longer had the chance to hide.

No matter how hard you try to deny it, it's already irreversible.

They were probably indeed—in the same city.

The embarrassed one wasn't Yu Man... but Xiaolu.

It's a bit like meeting someone you barely know on the street, and being polite and enthusiastic: "Hey, come to my house for dinner," and then they actually agree...

"Really...really?" The deer had a strange expression on his face.

After a while, Yu Man whispered: "...Yeah." Then nodded.

The atmosphere was tense.

Yu Man was upset that he couldn't handle the problem. It was all because the roast goose rice was too tempting and shook his faith in Taoism.

But he also sighed, as he should have had a rare full meal and spent a good New Year with Senior Cat.

But now - let alone the roast goose rice, this fixed team that was formed not long ago has probably also come to an end.

Before this, Yu Man had thought of many ways to disband from the Xiaolu team and then delete her friends to say goodbye.

For example, there might be problems with the distribution of loot, people might start arguing with each other over the reasons for losing a fight, they might fail to clear a dungeon due to mistakes, they might be too unlucky to continue opening boxes... Yu Man had considered all of these.

The only thing I had never thought of, or even heard of, was that the team would disband because of such an embarrassing method.

Alas, this is the unbridgeable gap between reality and games.

It's time to find a way out and save face for each other.

"Well... I'll go have breakfast first, Xiaolu." Yu Man put all the things into the box's mouth and threw it into the backpack.

"……breakfast?"

She was confused because Yu Man said he couldn't afford to eat, so they were just discussing the issue of payment.

But she sincerely hoped that these were just jokes and Yu Man was actually living a good life.

"Well, I'll go see the NPC chef I hired to see if he has the recipes you mentioned before."

"……this."

Watching Yu Man put on the witch hat, shake off the snow on her body, and walk away.

The deer's face gradually turned from its original whiteness to crimson.

The little deer knew very well why he was blushing. It was because he was ashamed of having made big promises but not being able to keep them.

Damn it, damn it, damn it, why did this happen - why did they all happen in the same city... How is this going to end!

Yu Man’s back left - as if she was about to melt in the snow.

But Xiaolu also knew that she was completely different in reality than she pretended to be in the game. Not to mention taking Yu Man shopping and eating, even meeting her was...

unless……

Unless you're completely shameless and tell everything like Yu Man did... huh?

Yes.

She suddenly realized that before Yu Man told her story, she had asked Xiaolu if she could be trusted.

The deer replied: "If you are willing to trust me, I am definitely someone you can trust."

Therefore, I finally knew who Yu Man was and what his situation was.

But because of this shame, she betrayed trust... and lied again! Her cheeks flushed hotly.

"This time... trust me for once." She whispered to herself.

Then he took a deep breath of the cold air and strode forward.

The brand new pair of boots he had obtained by participating in the dungeon story hurried forward on the road covered with a layer of light snow.

Just like that, he followed Yu Man and stood by her shoulder as usual.

"eel."

"Well, what's wrong." Yu Man's words and actions were normal.

The deer typed, "Can I trust you too?"

Yu Man thought for a moment and replied calmly: "If you want to trust, then you can."

The deer nodded, this answer was enough.

"I lied to you about something."
