Is the person you sculpt as cute as me?

Yu Man just remembered the name of that material, but felt something was not good.

What did I just promise?

……

ps

(I'm late, so I'll just update briefly. The extra update will be at the usual 6am. I'll write as much as I can by then OTZ.)

037·Receive some red envelopes

This is a bit like going to work, where they don’t show you the specific contents of the contract, but just urge you to sign it quickly, otherwise you will miss the chance.

Yu Man always felt that she had unknowingly promised something terrible.

No, I have to ask clearly——

"Xiaolu, what did you ask me just now? I was a little distracted..."

"How about hot pot tonight? Fish soup or chicken soup? Are there any dietary restrictions?"

"I don't have any dietary restrictions, I eat everything...but I feel like that's not the question you're asking."

Xiaolu remained calm and said, "The grass jelly needs to cool down a bit before we can eat it. Let's go have some tea first and get some snacks... okay?"

"Okay, okay, you asked before—"

"Do you want some taro cake? It's cold, let's cook a small bowl of rice noodle porridge."

“…Eat, eat, eat.”

What was he going to ask? Yu Man gradually forgot.

But she gradually realized that human appetite is contradictory to rationality.

……

Drink tea, chat, and pet cats.

The days with cold wind and sunshine coexist become leisurely.

During this period, the housekeeping robot felt that Xiaolu was rarely not playing games, so it asked her to help paste Spring Festival couplets and hang lanterns.

The cat senior was lying at Yu Man's feet, and the two of them just watched them busying themselves while they leisurely drank tea... Their days were particularly leisurely.

"Xiao Man."

"Ok?"

"I know you've fallen for that girl's trick. Your steadfast faith has wavered, and you even think playing games is worse than being a gigolo."

Yu Man almost choked and kept coughing.

Perhaps it's Senior Cat himself whose daoist heart is wavering? Just be a cat, eat, sleep, and bask in the sun every day.

Besides, what's a pretty boy? Yu Man patted the cat's butt as a complaint.

"Xiao Man, don't indulge in material things. Playing games is our only way out! When the time comes, I'll turn back into a human, and then easily win three consecutive championships, making a lot of money. I'll also build a house like this to support you every day as compensation."

"...Isn't this what a pretty boy is?"

"That was the correct way to be a pretty boy, but now it's not right! You have to think it through..."

Yu Man smiled and took another sip, thinking that Senior Cat was really weird.

Isn’t this just netizens meeting offline, celebrating a festival together, and then happily going back to their own homes?

It becomes quite strange when it gets into its mouth... Never mind, let’s not talk about this.

"Speaking of which, Triple Crown, I have a question about the game."

"I'm your cat-senpai... Triple Crown sounds so vulgar."

"My team and Xiaolu's team is currently configured with a combination of ice magic and bloodless longsword."

"...This is a 22-man lineup with no healers. They have control, burst, endurance, and nausea, so it's a lineup with very few weaknesses. If I have to say, because the front row has no control, their ability to protect the back row is very weak. They're very afraid of being killed instantly by a powerful melee fighter with control-free skills."

The strongest PVP player in the previous life, yawning while analyzing the situation clearly.

Although Yu Man didn't want to ask this, he still found it useful.

"You'd better get some hard life-saving skills, then you will be very powerful."

Yu Man nodded, indicating that he benefited from it.

But in the end, she just wanted to ask—

"With this lineup of ours, when you transform back into a human and return to the old world to join us... what will you play?"

"...Ah, so you're plotting against me here."

Senior Cat bit Yu Man's ankle lightly, feeling angry.

"Everyone knows your lineup is missing a healer! Let me play the healer, right?!"

"Yes, Mr. Triple Crown, the world's strongest player, come and be our nurse when the time comes."

"Wrong! The answer is to kill the other team's healer instantly, so that we don't have to worry about not having healers!"

"Hey, why don't you want to play with breasts?"

Senior Cat nibbled Yu Man for a while, but suddenly he vaguely remembered something.

"Xiao Man, since we are second-round players, we should make use of the information from the first round."

"Well, I've been taking advantage of you... Oh, you can't even play the game, so you can't take advantage of me even if you want to."

Senior Cat sighed, but still didn't bother with her.

"In my round, the best healer in the world was locked up by a crappy team for two whole years. There were a lot of messes with contracts and salaries, and it wasn't until the last year that he officially debuted in the professional scene."

"……so?"

"I was so impressed by her abilities that I investigated her. Now that you mention treatment... it just comes to mind."

The senior cat licked his fur, but his eyes were serious.

"She's a PVE player, and she's incredibly passionate about it. You're definitely going to challenge the true Three Secrets, or even the Final Land... I suggest you keep an eye on her..."

"It seems like you really don't want to play the role of healer. You've even revealed this hidden secret."

Senior Cat acquiesced and continued:

"Remember, when you browse gaming forums, you might come across someone who knows a thing or two. Their ID is a number, and they have a bunch of fake accounts with different numbers. Their common trait is that they critique everything, but their tone is extremely sarcastic and twisted..."

"Aren't there a lot of people like this?"

"This is different. You'll know it when you see it. Her biggest characteristic is that she likes to use the word 'uneasy'."

Senior Cat warned—

"Anyway, if you're looking for a healer, she's absolutely super reliable, extremely powerful in both PVP and PVE... but finding her requires a very complicated process."

"Oh? Because she's contract-bound by the club? Or is there some kind of gambling agreement with the team?"

"Not that—I mean, I need to write a long essay to soothe her anxiety. Then I have to read ten thousand of her sarcastic and twisted essays in reply. After writing to each other like this for ten years, I can barely add her as a friend in the game."

Yu Man felt so troubled. The wall of this person's heart was so thick.

Feeling inferior: "You should play treatment."

"Oh, I don't want to play, I don't want to play! So, if you see her on the forum, I'll write a short essay with her."

That's fine.

If such a guy really exists, Yu Man would like to meet him.

What is so unique about this treatment that it is praised so highly by Senior Cat?

……

In the evening, hot hot pot brought them together at the indoor dining table.

Even though the villa is isolated from the hustle and bustle by walls, vegetation and deliberate avoidance during municipal planning, the atmosphere of the Spring Festival still permeates the area.

The meat is delicious and the chicken has a chicken flavor.

The vegetables are fresh and refreshing, and the soup is nourishing to the soul.

But Yu Man was not so happy, because——

"Guest, what would you like to eat tomorrow morning?" asked the housekeeping robot with a smile.

"Morning?"

"You don't know, my master usually eats very little, so cooking every day is a torture. If I'm not careful, I'll end up overcooking. Every time I go to buy groceries, the shopkeeper giving me a scallion becomes an extra burden, because no one will eat it after I cook."

The nature of the domestic robot has always been suppressed because of the deer's appetite.

But now, there is the scrap processor · Mao Mao, and the one who eats a normal single portion · Yu Man.

It was a sense of relief that it had finally worked as it should, like the revelation one receives when they are about to convert to Christianity.

"Wait, morning?"

"Well, weren't you invited to stay overnight?"

"...Fuck." Yu Man finally understood what she had agreed to.

Logically speaking, it's just a normal overnight stay. After all, there's nothing wrong with friends staying with each other for a day.

But not right now—instead, it feels like I've been trapped.

Yu Man originally wanted to start with Senior Cat, saying that Senior Cat is familiar with his home and he has to be taken back to sleep, otherwise he will turn the whole house upside down... However, Senior Cat finished his cat meal and is now sleeping soundly on the sofa, looking very comfortable.

What’s even more terrifying is that Yu Man discovered that she was still wearing the deer’s clothes.

And the set of clothes that I took off... is now firmly in the hands of the household robot.

I can't even find the opportunity to ask if I can get it back.

It was as if he had grasped the tiger talisman and was in control of the military rebellion, and Yu Man was no longer able to reverse the situation.

In the end, it was Xiaolu who made Yu Man give up resistance.

While the atmosphere was lively, the pot was filled with ingredients, and the soup was boiling, she took a picture of the dining table with her mobile phone.

Her own dishes, the busy work of the housekeeping robot, and Yu Man's slender figure across from her...

You can vaguely see the white shadow of a cat on the sofa next to you.

Not only that, the brilliant fireworks in the distance were reflected on the window glass.

Xiaolu's face was filled with joy, and she sent it to Yu Man via WeChat, along with a picture and text reading "Happy New Year." Incidentally, she also posted it to her Moments...it was the first post she had ever made.

"Then I'll have another free meal." Yu Man was helpless, thinking that he had lost.

"Okay—let's play games together after dinner! Is that okay?..."

"Hey, let's go to the illegal area and chop some people to celebrate the New Year, just like setting off firecrackers."

"it is good!"

So, feeling refreshed both physically and mentally, they logged into the game in each other's rooms.

Accompanied by the fine snow that no longer seemed lonely, they stepped into another world.

The girl in front of each other looked very familiar. After all, they had spent a whole day together.

"Let's go and kill people in the illegal area." Xiaolu and the two-handed sword on her back were eager to try.

"Well, let's go collect some New Year's red envelopes." Yu Man said happily.

038·Cultural Output

When Yu Man and Xiao Lu returned to the "Old World", the huge villa became a little deserted.
