Chapter 849: Catching Up? If You Want to Fight, Just Say It

Editor: Henyee Translations

When Gu Yang returned to the dormitory, both Gu Jin and Qiao Manman were present.

Since military training had ended, Tong Jiayin typically returned to the dormitory only at noon and spent her evenings elsewhere.

“Playing games?” Gu Jin glanced up from her game when she heard Gu Yang’s footsteps.

Gu Yang replied, “Uh, yeah, I played for a while.”

Qiao Manman was in the midst of removing her makeup. She smiled and said, “Yangyang, next time you play, call me. I’ll carry you to the top!”

Gu Yang couldn’t help but chuckle. “Then you’ll have to wait in line. There are plenty of people now wanting to carry me to the top, thanks to Gu Pei and his team of pigs.”

Within half a day, thanks to Gu Pei and his less-than-stellar teammates, the entire internet now knew that she had an incredible knack for gaming—though luck played a significant role in her victories.

Soon, her WeChat lit up with numerous notifications. Even busy figures from the entertainment industry like Ruan Chu, Ji Jingchi, and Jiang Mo appeared, offering to team up with her if she wanted to play games.

Not to mention her friends from the No.1 Middle School Group.

Even Ruan Meng, who was far away in Continent M, admired her gaming skills and joked about bringing her over oceans.

Qiao Manman burst into laughter. “No worries. If Little Fairy Yangyang gives me the chance, I’ll queue up all the way to Country F.”

Gu Jin chimed in calmly, “I alone can take them all on. Just give me a call if you want to play.”

While playing games, Gu Jin typically didn’t care about her teammates’ survival. However, when it came to her sister, she would ensure her character’s survival even if her own had fallen.

In the game Legend of Gods, all the characters were referred to as gods.

“Yeah, if I decide to play, I’ll invite you guys,” Gu Yang said, confident that with her eSport legend Big Shot Sister guiding her, victory was within reach.

Qiao Manman continued scrolling through her phone as she removed her makeup with one hand, suddenly exclaiming, “Oh my god! The Yangning Research Institute has developed a drug for treating hemophilia!”

“At the press conference just now, they announced that the medicine has passed clinical trials and completely cured the volunteers’ hemophilia!”

Gu Yang froze and turned to Gu Jin.

The Yangning Research Institute was China’s renowned private medical research facility, led by none other than Big Shot Sister herself.

In truth, Big Shot Sister had developed a cure for hemophilia long ago, but she hadn’t yet made it public. Gu Jin’s sudden announcement caught Gu Yang off guard.

Despite Gu Yang’s surprise, Gu Jin’s expression remained unchanged. She skillfully diverted attention to the Yangning Research Institute’s achievement, effectively suppressing the trending topics about Gu Yang’s gaming.

When Gu Jin attempted to use her hacking skills to delete a video of Gu Yang gaming, she found that someone had beaten her to it—Feng Jue.

They were united in protecting their sister.

Now that the development of her sister’s abilities by the Mutant System had not reached its full potential, they couldn’t afford for Utopia to discover that she was Wuyang.

However, not long after, she received a message.

From the list, a cat owner who lay dead.

Cao Cuo: [I saw Yangyang and Feng Jue today.]

Gu Jin’s gaze paused. She considered exiting the chat page, but curiosity got the better of her, and she read on.

Immediately, Cao Cuo followed up with another message: [It’s been a while. Let’s meet up and catch up.]

Gu Jin scoffed inwardly.

Catch up? If he wants to confront me, just say it outright.

She responded slowly: [I’m busy. I have to accompany my sister to school.]

It suddenly dawned on her why Feng Jue seemed so indifferent whenever he flaunted his actions to her.

Because there was a certain satisfaction in it.
