Chapter 47

"Good heavens, did you two practice day and night after going back?"

The ballroom dance teacher looked at the pleasing-to-the-eye students in front of her and praised them repeatedly.

She remembered that during their first class the day before yesterday, this beautiful, doll-like girl kept stepping on her partner's feet. But today, the two danced as if they had been learning for a long time, so smoothly?

Could it be that the two were a couple having a spat, and the girl was deliberately stepping on her partner's feet as an excuse because she didn't know how to dance?

The teacher's imagination naturally ran wild as she stared at the two of them for a long time.

"It's alright..."

Wasn't that just dancing day and night for a few months in the game?

In the game, she either accompanied Mu Chen to read memorials at night, or Mu Chen accompanied her to dance. How uncoordinated would her bright limbs have to be to still step on someone's *jiojio* (excluding those who deliberately offered their feet)?

Mingmei's gaze flickered, not daring to meet the teacher's probing eyes. Finally, her gaze fell on the other person's thin lips. Mingmei suddenly realized that Mu Chen's lip shape was quite attractive?

"Damn, it's a waste not to kiss him at this close range!"

Not far away, taking advantage of Zhen Po's position, Lu Xiaoyao openly peeked, uttering outrageous words from time to time. It was really hard on her good brother.

Compared to Lu Xiaoyao, who was already obsessed with the CP, the other players who were directly or indirectly hurt by Mu Chen in the game yesterday had extremely complicated feelings.

Ah! It's you! Jing An Emperor, who treated us like monkeys!

Ah! It's you! The true love of that monkey trainer!

Zhen Po stared at Lu Xiaoyao's expression of being completely immersed in the CP. The look on his face was indescribable. He had even confided in Lu Xiaoyao last night!

He had been terribly tricked in the game yesterday. Everything was going smoothly at first, but things became increasingly wrong later in the game.

Suddenly, there was an additional concubine in the harem, and then the player playing Ying Wang was even recorded in the imperial genealogy as the concubine's child!

That concubine was also the mysterious merchant!

Zhen Po recalled the secret of the Jing An Emperor mentioned in the bento, the lover hidden in the Cold Palace was no longer concealed.

He even allowed a player to be registered as the other person's son. Wasn't this clearly indicating who the winner of this round was?

Before Zhen Po could react, Yuan Fang acted much faster, directly rebelling and invading the palace. By the way, he also killed him ＿(：3」∠)_

That's right, Zhen Po didn't expect that Yuan Fang would rebel. He could understand killing the Jing An Emperor and Ying Wang, but what was the point of killing him?!

He went to find Yuan Fang as soon as he left the game yesterday. Zhen Po laughed when he learned that he had not succeeded in rebelling in the end.

Serves you right for being ruthless, didn't you still fail?

As a result, Yuan Fang pulled him aside and also began to complain. Zhen Po then learned that he and Bai Xiao should be considered the earliest players persecuted by the Jing An Emperor.

From beginning to end, Yuan Fang was just a tool.

A player was designed to be a tool by an NPC. Who could reason with that?

Yuan Fang told Zhen Po at the time that the Jing An Emperor knew everything they had done before, but the Jing An Emperor turned a blind eye to all of them acting foolishly.

Even Yuan Fang's rebellion this time was just a way for the Jing An Emperor to pave the way for the new emperor to ascend the throne.

Some military generals and nobles should be eliminated, and those who should be killed should be killed. A new emperor brings in a new court.

Therefore, when they saw Mu Chen, who looked exactly like the Jing An Emperor, appear today, they only felt extremely nauseous.

Then, looking at Mingmei next to him.

Double nausea!

As for Leng Youyou, who played the Empress Dowager yesterday, she said that the interaction between Mingmei and Mu Chen and the scene when they danced was still very pleasing.

Because, in the end, Leng Youyou didn't die at the hands of the Jing An Emperor, nor did she die at the hands of other players, but at the hands of an NPC she never expected—the Consort Yong.

The game continued until Qing Wang's mutiny and rebellion failed. She was imprisoned in the Cining Palace by the order of the Jing An Emperor, and her backstage also notified her that this game was over.

However, Leng Youyou inexplicably didn't leave the game immediately. Instead, after her mental power was withdrawn from the character, she coldly watched the ending of the Empress Dowager from a third-person perspective.

After learning the news that her entire family had been wiped out, the Empress Dowager was half-crazy and half-foolish.

In the end, Consort Yong, with the help of the newly appointed Crown Prince, bribed the palace servants and came to the Cining Palace.

In the end, she personally pressed the Empress Dowager's entire head into a bowl of viscous cold porridge, suffocating her to death.

When the other party took action, she kept muttering, "You deserve everything."

Even watching the scene from a third-person perspective, Leng Youyou still felt that she was frightened by Consort Yong. After she quit the game, her hands and feet were still cold for a long time.

...

After the dance class, Mingmei was obviously more popular than Mu Chen. Lu Xiaoyao directly took Mingmei to meet several girls for bubble tea.

Bai Xiao and Hu Yue didn't agree because they had classes in the afternoon. Only Leng Youyou accepted Lu Xiaoyao's invitation. The three girls went for afternoon tea together~

"By the way, do you know how game companies purchase personal portraits for use as game characters?"

Leng Youyou had only heard that the copyright of the portraits of this CP in Lu Xiaoyao's class had been sold to the game company, but she had never encountered it.

After playing the game yesterday, Leng Youyou felt even more incredible. She stared straight at Mingmei, who seemed to know the way, and said, "If possible, I also want to sell. Just thinking about the big boss having my face makes me feel it's worth it! I won't even charge any money!"

"Then don't you want to be a mysterious merchant?"

Mingmei felt sour when she heard Leng Youyou say that playing the boss or something was super cool.

Was her mysterious merchant so insignificant?

"Oh, the mysterious merchant is indeed good, but it feels so boring. All you do every day is wait for players to discover you and then sell bento boxes. There's no sense of participation in the game at all."

After Leng Youyou finished speaking, she didn't notice Mingmei's helpless expression. She lowered her head, propped her cheek with one hand, and stirred the bubble tea ingredients in her cup with the other, saying, "Since we're playing games, we should be a big boss who holds the script, so it's not a wasted trip!"

"Yeah, yeah, ever since my memory was suppressed, I've been suffocating in the game. It's too hard without a strategy QAQ! The key is that these NPCs are more or less intelligent! The big boss is still amazing. Thinking about that boss with Mu Chen's face, I can't even tell the difference between Mu Chen and the boss now. I think they're both amazing!"

When Lu Xiaoyao said this, she glanced at Mingmei again and added, "But I can tell the difference between Meimei and the mysterious merchant. She's not as pretty as you~"

Mingmei: "..."

Thank you!

"How can that be? I think the mysterious merchant is about the same as Mingmei, and the merchant is always wearing makeup when she appears, and she has different clothes and hairstyles every time, so she's even more beautiful~"

Leng Youyou was unconvinced by Lu Xiaoyao's conclusion.

"How could that be? The merchant's facial features aren't as delicate as Meimei's. Meimei's eyebrows, eyes, and face lines are all... perfect! How can makeup make up for that?"

Unknowingly, the topic had already gone off track, and Leng Youyou and Lu Xiaoyao were arguing about which was more important, makeup or a good foundation.

Mingmei silently withdrew from the topic, drinking bubble tea while letting her mind wander, and began to think about Leng Youyou's question just now—the mysterious merchant has no game experience.

Is that so?

Mingmei carefully recalled the scenes in each game where she clearly wanted to slack off but was forced to participate in the main storyline... No, there was clearly a lot of game experience!

However, Leng Youyou was right about one thing.

Having no script in hand makes for an extremely poor game experience!

Mingmei couldn't help but touch her optical brain address book and looked at the gray avatar of Yan Hui, whose signature had become "This person is dead, burn paper if you need anything."

Mingmei seriously considered the feasibility of one thing—next time, could she be a character with a script in hand?
