Chapter 23 Is This PUA?

"Is my uncle doing PUA?"

After chatting with Yan Hui, Mingmei was completely cat-elevated, cat-shocked, cat-bewildered.jpg.

"How did it end up being all my fault?"

Mingmei couldn't figure it out. How could her uncle be completely fine after she died? How was it all her fault?

Mingmei didn't notice the expression on Mu Chen's face as she complained.

She forgot what she said to Mu Chen when she told him to leave in the game.

She said she wouldn't die and that she would wait for Mu Chen to come back.

But when Mu Chen returned, all that was left was a pile of corpses.

Mu Chen sat beside Mingmei without saying a word, resting his head on her shoulder like a big cat. But Mingmei still didn't seem to realize that something was off with him today.

After she finished telling him everything, she suddenly heard Mu Chen say in a low voice, "You said you wouldn't die..."

Mingmei was stunned by Mu Chen's resentful question.

A guilty conscience made her feel uneasy when she met Mu Chen's eyes. Besides an awkward smile, Mingmei didn't know what else she could do to comfort him.

He was obviously frightened by her state in the game.

Otherwise, would she have gone to Yan Hui to argue? She herself was angered by her ending!

"Actually... I didn't want to either..."

"Yes, you didn't want to." With that, Mu Chen sighed again, staring straight at Mingmei with irresistible puppy eyes without saying a word.

Everything was unspoken, and Mingmei's mind was instantly flooded with "I'm guilty."

[Host, your boyfriend is such a green tea~~]

When it comes to ruining the atmosphere, Gui Gui has some skills. Mingmei almost laughed out loud in front of Mu Chen when she heard Gui Gui's comment.

Gui Gui: [You died, but it feels like he's the biggest victim?]

Mingmei couldn't answer that question.

"Wasn't it because there were too many NPCs? Mainly my uncle. Why did he arrange so many thugs for Haike?"

Without explaining to Gui Gui, Mingmei began to explain to Mu Chen.

Anyway, Mingmei was going to put the blame on Yan Hui, and she had to make sure it stuck!

"You know my skills. Basically, I can beat anyone, especially in a one-on-one situation."

Who knew there would be so many people in the end? Mingmei couldn't handle them all.

"I understand..."

Mu Chen said he understood, but he leaned against Mingmei like a clingy big cat, confirming again and again through her soft body that Mingmei was alive.

The game experience was too real. No matter how many times, he couldn't face the scene of Mingmei's death.

It was more terrifying than his own tragic death in the game.

"By the way, we have a day off in a few days. Do you want to go on a date?"

Sensing Mu Chen's awkward mood, Mingmei rarely tried to coax him.

As expected, as soon as he heard "date," Mu Chen perked up immediately. He looked at Mingmei expectantly and immediately asked, "Yes, where to?"

...

After coming to the Sixth Army for three or four months, Mingmei and Mu Chen finally had a short vacation and decided to take a "long trip."

"Ha? Your long trip is to come here?! You haven't even left the star system!"

Yan Hui looked speechlessly at the background behind the two in the video call. Wasn't that the Qilan Star's landmark building, the Qilan 299-story skyscraper?

No wonder it looked familiar. Wasn't his office here?

"The army also requires us not to leave the star system without authorization, right?"

Mingmei smiled as she watched the displeasure on Yan Hui's face, and her heart was instantly healed.

Good.

She was happy when her uncle was unhappy.

But just as Mingmei was smiling brightly at her uncle, the originally unhappy expression on Yan Hui's face gradually turned into a playful smile.

"Really? You can't leave the star system? Then what are you doing on Qilan Star? And you're calling me specifically. Do you need me to sponsor some dating funds?"

Yan Hui knew what Mingmei was thinking.

Wasn't she unhappy because he tricked her so badly in the game before? So she was planning to find fault with him during the vacation?

"Oh, not much."

Mingmei hadn't realized the seriousness of the problem. She summoned Gui Gui in her heart to recite the modified lines she had prepared from TV dramas and novels.

"Five hundred or five thousand is fine, fifty thousand or a hundred thousand will do. A love room, a love car, a candlelight dinner with a glass of wine..."

Mu Chen smiled as he watched Mingmei deliberately make a fool of herself. Out of the corner of his eye, he finally noticed the "malicious" smile on Yan Hui's lips.

Mu Chen: Something doesn't seem right.

A thought flashed through Mu Chen's mind, and he was about to tell Mingmei to say less. But at that moment, Yan Hui turned the camera of his communicator, and Mingmei and Mu Chen saw Ming Yi and Mei Shi sitting on the visitor's sofa in Yan Hui's office, drinking tea.

Mu Chen: !!!

Mingmei: ???

The triumphant smile froze on her lips.

Mingmei was stunned when she saw her parents suddenly appear. She didn't need a mirror to know that her face was about to crack!

She had never been so shameless in front of her parents before _(：3」∠)_

She's not usually like this!

Before Mingmei could open her mouth to explain, Ming Yi, who was pouring hot tea for his wife, raised his eyes to look at the communicator and said lightly, "Love room?"

Mingmei was so frightened that she blurted out, "Two beds! Love suite, two beds!"

"Bah! Do you think we've never stayed in a love room? Who are you trying to fool? Whether it's a love room or a love suite, it's just one bed, but the room is bigger and there are more ways to play, especially with those matching tools..."

"Cough cough!"

Yan Hui couldn't help but cough loudly. He couldn't listen to Mei Jie's crude words, especially—

"The children are still here..."

Yan Hui gritted his teeth and reminded everyone present that they were all decent people.

There was no need to say everything out loud, right?

At the critical moment, Mingmei suddenly felt that her uncle was okay after all _(：3」∠)_

She didn't really want to hear it either, okay?

Mingmei had never stayed in a love room, but her mother's description was so vivid!

She didn't want to be a girl who understood everything =, =

"Aren't you coming up? What are you doing standing outside like telephone poles?"

Seeing the two of them still standing on the street video calling them, Ming Yi had clearly seen the people passing by in the background looking at them with complicated expressions.

So he told the two of them to come up directly, glanced at the sky outside, and added, "It's a good opportunity for the family to get together tonight."

Hearing her father's words, Mingmei's originally planned candlelight dinner instantly shattered. Mingmei and Mu Chen's mood became extremely complicated.

They just wanted to annoy their uncle, but they ended up annoying themselves orz.
