Qiao Lian was dumbfounded by his perfect control of the game!

What the hell!

He was playing like a pro. Could it be that… Shen Liangchuan had found a pro to play against her?

Did that work too?!

In her daze, she had revived. She quickly activated the speed boost and ran back to base.

The right thing to do was to return to base to heal up.

Although her defence had been effective, Qiao Lian still felt that she was going to die, since he had an ability that could reach her in an instant.

Unexpectedly, when she started running towards her base and looked back, she realized that Shen Liangchuan was standing on the spot. He wasn’t chasing after her.

Was this… Was he giving her a chance? To repay her leniency just now?

The man truly didn’t like owing anyone!

Or…

Why had she thought of this?

As that thought appeared, Qiao Lian’s body froze.

She then realized that she had subconsciously imagined the person in the game to be Zi Chuan.

That was Zi Chuan’s character, he didn’t owe anyone favors.

When he gamed, if the person hadn’t been hot on his heels, he would let them go.

He was very loyal, he put his life values and morals into the games he played.

Just like now, he had been in an inferior position. He should’ve killed her and fought for time for himself to level up. However, he had still let her off.

Wait…

Why was she imagining Shen Liangchuan as Zi Chuan again!

She shouldn’t be mixing them up just because there was a ‘Chuan’ in both of their names!

Qiao Lian shook her head and focused all her energy into the game, and she stopped entertaining those foolish thoughts of hers.

After she healed up, she started attacking again. Shen Liangchuan had already destroyed her first turret.

Now, they were both relying on their skills.

Qiao Lian went for Shen Liangchuan to attack him. However, at that instant, she realized that he had once again targeted her and that he was about to immobilize her, so she quickly shunned him. Although she managed avoid the stun, she didn’t avoid the hit that followed.

What the hell!

She couldn’t help but shriek.

Where did Shen Liangchuan find such a pro? He was amazing!

She focused her energy on the game and fought with Shen Liangchuan with evenly matched abilities.

In the study.

Shen Liangchuan stared at the woman in the yellow dress.

This dress was a dress they had won by killing monsters to level up. There was only one of this kind in the whole game.

Thus, this was like Xiao Qiao’s unique characteristic.

As he watched her get hit again, although the rooms had been well soundproofed, he felt as if he had heard Xiao Qiao shout, “What the hell!”

He didn’t know why, but he could hear her voice. It said, “Zi Chuan, come quickly! This guy is too powerful!”

He could’ve killed her with a shot but, because of that moment of distraction, his movements slowed down. It gave her a chance to catch a breath and run away.

He stared at the game and suddenly felt that his heart couldn’t calm down.

They had always been the best partners, they used to be so close.

But why, why did they end up like this?

They had met, but they couldn’t recognize each other.

Even when they were in game, they had to meet as enemies.

This seemed to be the most desolate thing in the world.

Even though this was just a game, Shen Liangchuan suddenly felt desolate.

He suddenly stood up, went out study room and stood before the door of the master bedroom.

At that instant, he suddenly had a strong urge to rush in and tell that woman in the room that he was Zi Chuan.
