Zhao Xi didn't know whether to laugh or cry at his grandparents' doubts. He reached out his hand and waved at Lin Mei in a hurry.
Lin Mei was also smiling. When she heard Zhao Xi's words, she didn't think much and walked over immediately.
Zhao Xi grabbed her little hand, led her in front of the camera of the computer host, and said to the camera: "Grandpa and grandma, this is my friend Lin Mei, she and I opened the studio together."
Ah! Seeing the two stunned old people on the wall projection screen, Lin Mei suddenly understood. Her pretty face turned red instantly, and she lowered her head shyly: "Grandpa, grandma, hello."
Her voice was so soft that only he could hear it. Zhao Xi also felt that he seemed to have done something wrong. He quickly let go of Lin Mei's little hand and said with a smile: "We... are partners now."
Zhao Xi's grandfather and grandmother looked at each other and laughed at the same time.
Grandpa Zhao hahaha: "Good boy! You have become more capable. It seems that it is right for you to go out and make a living. You have found a wife for yourself so quickly. You don't have to worry about money. I will transfer it to you later.
!”
Grandma lovingly said: "What a handsome girl. Daniel, you must treat her well and take her home if you have time!"
Seeing that the girl next to him was so embarrassed that she could hardly stand, Zhao Xi quickly said: "Okay, I'll hang up. Grandpa and grandma, take care of yourself and call me if you need anything!"
He hurriedly hung up the video call. Just as he was about to apologize to Lin Mei, he found that the girl had already ran upstairs.
This incident caused such a fuss... Zhao Xi shook his head helplessly.
Ye Qianqian snorted and muttered: "Sister Meimei can actually like this big stupid cow. It's really..."
She didn't say anything. Li Shuai and Ouyang Mu, who were sitting next to them, looked very sad. Although they knew that Lin Mei and Zhao Xi were very close, they still had no illusions in their hearts.
Now that even the parents have seen it, naturally there is no hope.
The atmosphere in the living room was a bit strange, and Zhao Xi couldn't help but feel embarrassed. He coughed twice and said, "You guys can eat, I'll go to the grand arena to play."
When I went upstairs to my room, my cell phone on the bedside rang.
Zhao Xi picked up his phone and saw a message from the bank. 300,000 had just been transferred into his account.
Zhao Xi didn't know Lin Mei's account number, so he could only go over and knock on her door.
After waiting for a moment, Lin Mei's weak voice came from the room: "Who is it?"
Zhao Xi scratched his head: "It's me. When the money arrives, I'll transfer it to you."
There was silence in the room, and after a while, Zhao Xi's cell phone rang. Lin Mei sent her account number.
Looking really embarrassed, Zhao Xi laughed dumbly, returned to the room and transferred the money.
He and Lin Mei had a mutual affection and a bit of ambiguity, but they had not confirmed their relationship. Now that the layer of window paper had been pierced in public, the girl was inevitably a little shy to see others.
After the transfer was successful, he received another text message from Lin Mei: Thank you, Brother Daniu.
After seeing this text message, Zhao Xi felt relieved, lay on the bed, opened the virtual equipment, and entered the arena.
Today is the weekend. Therefore, there are many players coming to the grand arena, and the huge virtual main arena is packed with seats. It is also expanding at an alarming speed to accommodate the arrival of more and more players.
Different from the previous times, Zhao Xi chose the intermediate zone with unlimited levels 16-20.
Because of the level, the number of players in the intermediate area is the largest. The competitive arenas created by the players alone are nearly 100,000, and there are tens of millions of onlookers!
Sitting in the large auditorium in the intermediate area, listening to the noisy cheers coming from all directions, anyone can't help but get excited.
After feeling the atmosphere here for a moment, Zhao Xi opened the control window and began to browse the competitive arena.
According to the rules of the system, the higher the attention of the arena, the higher the ranking. The champions are definitely star-level professional masters in the large arena. The number of challengers is tens of thousands, and the audience can reach millions.
It is said that these competitive star players all have high appearance fees and income from endorsement advertisements. Zhao Xi is interested in testing how strong they are, but there are too many challengers who have the same idea as him.
The possibility of being selected if you enter the position is really low.
However, the system allows repeated seat occupations. Starting from the top stage, he selected hundreds of arenas to occupy seats at the same time, hoping to increase the probability of becoming an official challenger.
But after waiting for a long time, Zhao Xi was still sitting in the audience and was not selected by any of the contestants.
He couldn't help scratching his head, feeling a little strange.
Zhao Xi has played in the Arena several times. His current record is 9 wins, 0 losses and 0 draws, all obtained in the novice zone and low-level zone. Such results are nothing in the Arena where there are many masters.
, it can only show that he is still a newcomer.
And the champions he chose were all level 20, the highest in the intermediate area. Logically speaking, he should be happy to choose a novice like him to improve his results. There wouldn't be so many people who couldn't see it!
Zhao Xi, who couldn't figure it out, had no choice but to continue choosing. If that didn't work, he could only create his own arena.
It's just that it's so rare to meet a master, so it's no fun to recruit some guys who want to take advantage and die.
"This friend..."
At this time, a player sitting next to him took the initiative to strike up a conversation and asked, "Are you new to the unlimited intermediate area?"
The thief watched Zhao Xi operate the virtual light screen for a while. Although he couldn't see the content displayed on it, he could guess a bit from Zhao Xi's actions: "Do you want to go up and try it with those professional stars?
"
Zhao Xi stopped moving, nodded and said, "Yes..."
He was a little curious: "How did you know?"
The thief smiled and said, "I guess so!"
He paused, deliberately showing off, and then continued: "Don't try, those guys won't choose you!"
Zhao Xi was really curious: "Why?"
The thief hahaha: "It's very simple, because you are not their intended opponent!"
Perhaps it was a rare opportunity to show off his knowledge, so this player explained it to Zhao Xi non-stop.
It turns out that in the circle of virtual games, the competition between professional star players is very fierce. Many game startups and labor unions often go to any lengths to cultivate their own star players.
The most popular game "Glory" now, in just two months, hundreds of star masters have emerged in the grand arena. Their records are impressive and they have a large number of fans. Every battle can attract
Thousands of spectators watch the battle.
But what many people don't know is that most of these star masters are promoted through hype, and their opponents are carefully selected and even have battle drills in advance to ensure fierce and exciting fights.
Since the opponents have already been selected, their scores are increased quickly, and the duel process is often long-lasting and intense. They often perform wonderful dramas of reversal and victory, which makes the audience enjoy watching and can't stop watching.
The thief spat and said: "Of course there are real masters, but most of them are actors. Don't think that anyone can be like them. First of all, the conditions in reality must be good, they must be tall and handsome enough, and use real appearance.
Scan and create a character to ensure that you will not die in the face of light."
"This is what people eat. In order to ensure their grades, even if they see a novice like you, they won't choose. If they meet someone who pretends to be a pig and eats the tiger, wouldn't it be embarrassing?"
"Moreover, they rarely fight against each other. Even if they do, they have been negotiated and arranged in advance. This is the so-called unspoken rule. Most people really don't know it!"
After listening to this, Zhao Xi felt that his eyes were opened immediately. He had never thought that there was such an inside story!
He stretched out his hand to the thief: "Thank you, I don't know what a friend is called, let's make friends!"
The thief smiled and said, "You're welcome. I'm waiting for my classmates to come over. I want to brag when I'm free. My game ID is Maple Leaf. I'm a level 19 thief. My friends call me Fengzi."
"Zhao Daniu, level 17 paladin!" Zhao Xi and him added each other as friends.
"Zhao Daniu..." The thief was surprised: "I seem to have seen your name before!"
Just as Zhao Xi was about to speak, an eye-catching message suddenly popped up on the virtual light screen in front of him.
Someone chose him as the challenger!
