Chapter 142 She and the Old Friend
When these players woke up, they found themselves on a resort island. Some experienced players realized something was wrong after scanning the entire place and seeing that there were quite a few NPCs and other players.
As the mobile phones in their pockets made a sound, they found that everyone on the island was pulled into a WeChat group with nearly 10,000 members, and the black avatar also issued instructions.
Find Him disguised as a human.
Although the players who entered the dungeon this time were not novices, due to the previous closure of the forum, some players who had only experienced the dungeon once or twice had no idea what the current situation was like. They only knew that some players changed their faces, making the atmosphere tense.
Those players were naturally old players who often read the forums and realized that they were being dragged into the dungeon meat grinder. Fortunately, at this moment, they all heard a system notification, and each of them was assigned health points.
The forum has already started discussing this copy, and Qiao Yuan, who performed outstandingly in this copy, was naturally mentioned again, and what she had done before was also dug up.
In addition, many people were surprised that the forum actually took the initiative to distribute life points this time. Qiao Yuan, who knew the truth, inexplicably had a feeling of robbing the rich to help the poor, but thinking of the agreement with the system, she decided to keep her merits and fame hidden.
Qiao was willing to exit this post. He originally wanted to see if there was any other useful content in the forum, but he didn't expect that after clicking in, he found that most of the posts today were discussing this copy, and the main topic of one post was whether he would be fooled.
It turns out that although the system has allocated health points in advance, facing His endless games and evil spirits, many players' health points are still a little stretched, so that like the players who have experienced similar dungeons before, survival is still the top priority, and finding Him in such a large crowd is fraught with difficulties.
Many players have started to think of other things, in addition to killing NPCs and taking their health points, some have obviously watched Qiao Yuan's live broadcast, so they also think of cheating on their feelings. One of the female players was decisive and took the lead.
Because of Qiao Yuan's success story, people on the forum no longer think this method is ridiculous or stupid, and the focus is now on whether it can succeed:
——Same trick, he won’t be fooled for the second time.
——Not necessarily, I made some changes
——I finally understood what the teacher meant when he said that questions may change in a thousand ways, but the knowledge points remain the same
——But doesn’t He like Sister Qiao?
——To be precise, I should say I liked her, but it’s been so long, maybe I’ve forgotten it long ago.
——Yes, not to mention that people can't only like one person in their lifetime, He is not a human.
——I think this female player Youyou looks a bit like Qiao Yuan, and she herself admitted that she had watched Qiao Yuan’s live broadcast. I think the success rate is quite high.
…
There was already a tendency for quarrel in the post, but Qiao Yuan was relieved, especially when she saw that He had never mentioned her existence.
It would be a good thing for Qiao Yuan if the evil god forgot about her or shifted his attention to another person. After all, that might help eliminate the other party's hatred towards her, and she wouldn't have to worry about what kind of revenge she would receive if she met the other party again in the copy as before.
Unfortunately, a viewer in the female player’s live broadcast room soon sent a message saying that the other party couldn’t even complete the first step of adding WeChat because it was directly displayed as unable to be added.
Youyou obviously didn't want to give up, and directly @him in the group. She was indeed smart, and she didn't copy Qiao Yuan's reason, but just found another excuse.
Her bold move was quickly spread to the forum through the audience in her live broadcast room. After all, Youyou is now a person whose every move is watched by everyone.
However, Youyou didn't get to wait for a reply, but instead waited until her health points were reduced to zero, and she died as time reached zero.
People on the forum were arguing whether it was because she openly @他 in the group that was taken as a provocation, or because Youyou's somewhat similar behavior evoked the painful memory of him being deceived.
Youyou's death also discouraged those who were eager to try to hook up with the dungeon boss in the dungeon or on the forum. There were also people who were jealous and said that Qiao Yuan's success was indeed due to being "the first person to try something new."
However, judging from these posts and a random player live broadcast, Qiao Yuan was more inclined to believe that "He" had forgotten about him. After all, the other party's tone in the group was no different from that in the previous copy.
With Youyou's failure, the direction of this copy in the forum turned into speculation about who "He" would be in the copy this time.
Therefore, no one noticed the appearance of a post: "Is there an NPC in this copy who is too love-brained?"
Qiao Yuan had seen it, but after clicking into the main post, he found that it was a person in the forum complaining about an NPC in a player's live broadcast room. This player had just experienced a novice dungeon and was thrown into this dungeon. He wanted to team up with other players but was disliked because he was a novice, so he could only team up with NPCs.
One of the NPCs in his team is a second-generation rich man who came on vacation because of a broken heart. Whether in terms of appearance, intelligence, or physical strength, he is considered to be one of the best NPCs, so this player treats him as a big shot and follows him all the time.
But soon this player and the audience in the other party's live broadcast room realized the problem -
This rich second generation guy is nice, but he is a little too love-minded.
When one of them was selecting non-toxic food from the evil ghost chef, the others were observing and selecting dishes with trepidation, while he looked at the dishes and sighed, "Some of them are her favorites."
When passing by the flowerbed planted by the evil spirits, he looked melancholy among the flowers that might have buried human heads: "Flowers are beautiful, but what's the point if people who want to see them can't see them?"
Facing someone who also admired his ability and wanted to seduce him, he said seriously: "I already have a lover."
"My loyalty is to her as well."
…
If there weren't photos of his ex-girlfriend in his wallet, some viewers in the live broadcast room would have suspected that he was his secondary account.
The players who follow this love-minded rich second generation are also tortured. After all, they often have to worry that the other party will be moved by the scene and stop exploring. He still needs to rely on the other party to survive, so he can only act as a psychological mentor and try to comfort the other party, let him focus on the game, and talk about love after he gets out alive.
When the player said that he had done well enough, the NPC said with a look of regret that he was not good enough, otherwise the other party would not have left, which made the player feel very upset.
Qiao Yuan did not take this post to heart, and even expressed to the system that it was not easy for this player, as he tied his life to a love-brained person.
Although he doesn't need to enter the dungeon for the time being, Qiao Yuan is still very busy.
As the days passed, the role played by Qiao Yuan was finished, and the life in the crew also came to an end. Because there was still a reshoot interview in the afternoon, Qiao Yuan invited the crew to have lunch at noon, and then rushed to
This variety show is an online variety show produced by a media company, so the reshoot location is also in the company building .
The interview questions were usually given to the guests in advance so that they could prepare their answers. However, because some guests spent a lot of time on makeup, Qiao Yuan was one of the first guests to finish the photoshoot even though she arrived relatively late.
After the reshoots, Qiao Yuan said goodbye to the director and photographer in a friendly manner, then followed Sister Jiang and the assistant into the elevator and walked towards the parking lot.
On the way, Jiang Jie also ran into a former colleague of hers, who had changed his job from agent to work at the TV station. Because of their shared memories, the two quickly struck up a conversation.
Just as they were about to reach their parking spot, the assistant suddenly looked troubled. While stealing a glance at Sister Jiang who was talking to someone else, she whispered to Qiao Yuan that the amulet she had been carrying with her was lost, most likely in the building.
As Qiao Yuan has received more announcements recently, the company has sent two more assistants, and the other party is one of them, and is also a newcomer who has just joined the company. Sister Jiang is very strict and resolute when dealing with work, and Qiao Yuan has become accustomed to it. But for the assistant, when she makes a mistake, Sister Jiang criticizes her in a harsh tone, which makes her feel as nervous as when she faces the dean of studies at school.
After realizing that he had made the same mistake again, the assistant subconsciously shared it with Qiao Yuan. However, he soon remembered that Qiao Yuan had returned to the hotel to rest immediately after completing the announcements these days, and added nervously, "You can go first, I can find it myself... That was left to me by my grandma..."
Qiao Yuan heard the assistant mention a few days ago that the amulet was an important gift from his grandmother to him, blessing him with good work. Since wearing the amulet, the assistant has obviously made fewer mistakes in his work.
She had more or less understood the other person's personality these days. Seeing the assistant's red eyes and body curled up like a quail, Qiao Yuan knew that the other person was now in a panic and might not be able to find him even if he returned to the building, so she said directly: "I'll go with you."
The assistant was stunned, but Qiao Yuan had already walked forward and said something to Sister Jiang in a voice that only the two of them could hear.
The assistant only saw Sister Jiang frowning and looking at Qiao Yuan, and then nodded. From her expression, it seemed that she had a lot to say, but she didn't say it because there were people around her.
Qiao Yuan smiled and nodded, then walked towards the building with her assistant. The assistant looked ashamed and said, "Sister Jiang..."
"It's okay. I said I lost something." Qiao Yuan said with a smile. Seeing the girl's guilty and uneasy expression, he quickly added, "It doesn't matter. She will say it after I return to the hotel. And it will be my bedtime by then. She will forget it by the next day."
She knew Sister Jiang and naturally knew how to avoid her criticism.
The assistant nodded, and was naturally touched. Before she entered this industry, she had heard about some stars being arrogant and making things difficult for their assistants. Especially when she was assigned to work with a star like Qiao Yuan, who was both popular and unpopular, she was very worried that the other party would vent the anger they received from netizens on her. However, after actually working with Qiao Yuan, she realized that this was not the case.
The assistant was moved and thanked Qiao Yuan. Qiao Yuan said it was okay and took the opportunity to remind him not to lose things in the future, which made the assistant nod repeatedly.
After realizing that she had caused trouble for others, she naturally didn't want to make the same mistake again.
Here, Qiao Yuan had already re-entered the building with his assistant. After searching the lobby for a while without finding the person, he walked towards the elevator, ready to take it upstairs.
But before she reached the elevator door, she noticed that there were quite a few people standing at the door. The two people surrounded by the crowd looked very familiar. One of them was smiling and saying to the other, "The last time you came to my place was half a year ago, right?"
"It took me a long time to finally invite you..."
At this moment, another person happened to turn his head and look over. His eyes unexpectedly collided with Qiao Yuan's, and his expression was obviously paused.
Others also noticed this, and someone asked in confusion: "Mr. Sheng?"
Qiao Yuan had already retracted his gaze, and turned around with his assistant, heading towards another elevator. Because Qiao Yuan was still wearing sunglasses and a mask, and most people's attention was on the two people surrounded in the middle, no one noticed Qiao Yuan's appearance and departure.
The assistant also noticed the person just now, and her expression was a little excited: "Sister, that, that is Sheng Guiye, right? Shouldn't we go up and say hello?"
She is about the same age as Qiao Yuan, but because assistants basically call celebrities "sister" and "brother" to show affection, she followed suit and Qiao Yuan did not correct her.
The assistant's tone was also full of regret. After all, it was not easy to meet Sheng Guiye, and the person standing with Sheng Guiye was the boss of a media company. Judging from the celebrities surrounding the two of them, one could tell how much everyone wanted to establish a relationship with them. The assistant also saw a celebrity among them who, like Qiao Yuan, came to reshoot scenes.
Obviously, in such a situation, it would be good to just go up and say hello and make yourself familiar with the person.
Because of Qiao Yuan's kindness to her, the assistant naturally subconsciously thought about her at this time, and always felt that Qiao Yuan seemed to have missed an opportunity.
Qiao Yuan didn't expect to meet Sheng Guiye here.
She was not surprised that Sheng Guiye appeared alive in front of her. In addition to the fact that she felt there was hope for Sheng Guiye to survive, the most important reason was that she had not seen the news of his death on the trending searches.
However, Qiao Yuan did not try to find out more in-depth information about Sheng Guiye. After all, she still remembered that she had received 100 million yuan in distance-keeping fees from the other party.
In the copy, because of the life-and-death threat, she could understand Sheng Guiye's desire to form a team and not keep a distance from her, but she also knew that she still had to keep a distance in the real world, so the moment she saw Sheng Guiye, she immediately turned around with her assistant.
She could feel Sheng Guiye's gaze on her, but she didn't think he recognized her. After all, she was still wrapped up tightly. Even with the invitation letter from the program team, she was still carefully checked by the security guard at the door when she re-entered the building.
However, the ins and outs of this naturally could not be told to the assistant, so Qiao Yuan just casually said: "There are too many people, and it is more important to find your things, otherwise they may be picked up by others."
After hearing Qiao Yuan's words, the assistant was even more touched, after all, the other party was thinking about her.
