Chapter 232 The Clumsy CEO's Exclusive NPC
After logging off, only a little over an hour had passed, and the clock had just struck nine o'clock, which was still quite early for most people in modern times.
The game was unplayable because of a crazy woman, so Yu Liu could only sit on the sofa in the living room with the handsome guy, watching the host and guests laughing and joking on TV with little interest.
The atmosphere between the two was somewhat silent.
The handsome man was pondering a problem. He realized that he was paying too much attention to the baby who had just appeared in his life. Sometimes, his mood was even swayed by her. Even though she was a little girl he had only known for a short time, she felt like he was very familiar with her.
He knew her so well that his mood was supposed to be dictated by this little girl.
This feeling was natural, but it was precisely because it appeared so suddenly that the handsome guy found it hard to accept and felt a sense of rejection, though not very strong, somewhere between awkward and not quite.
This left him feeling very conflicted.
Yu Liu glanced at the handsome guy who was staring blankly, hesitated for a moment, then turned her head back to stare at the TV. However, every few minutes she would sneak a glance at the handsome guy again, her expression somewhat hesitant.
Finally, Yu Liu couldn't resist any longer. She gently poked the handsome guy with her finger, and after he came to his senses, she asked somewhat shyly, "What... do you think of this game?"
The handsome man was a little taken aback by the question, not quite understanding why Yu Liu would suddenly ask it, but he still answered truthfully.
"It's alright." After saying that, the handsome guy felt his answer was a bit perfunctory, so he summarized, "Compared to other online games, this game is top-tier. However, because it incorporates a lot of innovative designs, some aspects are quite cumbersome. For example, there are too many actions. This game sets up a lot of actions for the characters, and just remembering which key corresponds to each action is difficult enough, let alone reacting quickly in battle. Not many people can do that, and some parts are really tricky. I play games for fun, so I find it very difficult, which is a big problem."
Judging from this, overall, she's not satisfied with the game. Yu Liu made a note in her mental notebook and then asked, "So, will you continue playing? Or will you switch to another online game?"
Upon hearing this question, the handsome guy glanced at Yu Liu, his gaze somewhat somber, but he still answered truthfully: "I probably won't be able to play for very long. This game is just too unfair, and with the controls, I think I'd be more satisfied with a different game. After all, I play games to relax, not to get tortured!"
However, now that they have a baby, it's suddenly uncertain how long they can continue this game. Of course, these handsome guys won't say it out loud; they're inexplicably a little embarrassed.
Yu Liu had no idea what the handsome man was thinking. She felt like she'd been struck by lightning!
What happened to the simple wish I promised?! I was all prepared for a peaceful world! What if my goal suddenly stops cooperating?
Ah Ning, even if you really have forgotten me as Yue Sheng said, you don't have to do this to me!
The little girl in Yu Liu's heart wanted to cry but had no tears. She silently huddled in a corner, whimpering and waving her little handkerchief in frustration.
Perhaps Yu Liu harbored too much resentment, for the handsome man seemed to vaguely sense that his words had upset her. He stroked Yu Liu's hair and asked gently in a low voice, "What's wrong? Why are you suddenly asking this question?"
Yu Liu instantly suppressed her inner grievances, put on a sweet smile, and shook her head like a rattle drum: "No, no, I was just asking casually."
I can't say! I can't say!
She silently repeated it twice in her mind, and Yu Liu pretended to naturally turn her gaze to the TV and ignore the handsome man. However, in reality, she was cheering herself on in various ways!
It's okay if the target doesn't like this game, she'll try her best to make him like it. It's okay if the game is difficult to control, isn't she there for him? She's the game's cheat code, the super super super kind, she can definitely make him roam freely in the world!
When the time comes, I must make sure Aning is satisfied!!
Yu Liu's eyes were filled with determination.
Such a simple wish will surely be fulfilled!
Stealing a glance at the handsome guy, and remembering her wish this time, Yu Liu couldn't help but sigh.
In fact, compared to the previous wishes that Yu Liu fulfilled, this world's wish is very, very simple, because this wish doesn't involve any scheming or fierce battles; it only requires playing a game.
However, the goal isn't to get Yu Liu to play the game, but rather to get her to find a way to get the handsome guy to play it for at least three months. After that, who cares!
As for why such a requirement exists, the reason is quite bizarre.
In 3023 AD, online games officially entered the holographic era. The first holographic online game appeared in people's lives and was hailed as the second world. It quickly became popular all over the world and became an indispensable part of people's lives.
The person who invented this first holographic online game was a handsome guy.
The handsome man at the time was already an elderly man in his fifties. He was inspired by a game and had the idea of creating a holographic online game. Then, in less than three years, he created the first holographic online game in human history. The game that inspired him was...
The emergence of holographic online games is certainly good for people, but online games have always been the domain of young people. Some older people who love online games lose to others at the starting line because their physical reactions can't keep up, and their ambitions cannot be realized, which makes them feel frustrated.
Then there was a group of people who regretted being born at the wrong time, that they were born so much earlier, that they were unable to make a name for themselves in the first holographic online game. They gathered together, complaining about their grievances. One of them jokingly lamented why the handsome guy hadn't played it earlier, so that he could have been inspired sooner to develop his own holographic online game.
What started as a casual remark turned out to be a revelation that the handsome man had played the game in his youth but quickly gave up due to operational issues. Some media outlets even compared his past experience with the game with the fact that he played it for three months in his fifties and then suddenly had the inspiration to create his first holographic online game. This comparison made some older people who still enjoy online games feel increasingly uncomfortable.
So some people wondered, if back when the handsome guy first started playing this game, if he had been interested in it and played it for three months, would he have suddenly had an inspiration and brought forward the timeline for making holographic games? Wouldn't he have been able to show off his skills when he was young?
As soon as the idea was proposed, it gained the approval of many people, who desperately hoped that it would come true. So, Yu Liu came.
