Qiao Xiyin pretended not to be able to see the suspicious gazes of the welcoming lady, and walked all the way to the top floor.
The host chose the box with the best view, which was decorated in a modern Western style. The young lady led her to the door and left.
Qiao Xiyin thought she came early enough, but she didn't expect anyone to be more excited than her. There were a total of fifteen people at the party, and almost half of them came and sat around on the sofa.
The young man sitting in the middle was wearing a shirt and exposing his watch. Qiao Xiyin glanced at the brand and could almost guess the identity of that person.
Then the young man saw her and said his first words, "Beauty, stop talking and let me guess who you are."
Although their circle has a good relationship, they rarely exchange photos or even send voice messages. This time, a beautiful girl suddenly came, which was really surprising.
Qiao Xiyin ""
OK.
Two girls of the same age with ponytails laughed beside them, "Brother Ran, please stop guessing. You have already guessed three wrongly."
The two came here dressed as besties, and there was only one couple in the whole family. Qiao Xiyin thought in her heart, "Pear, grape"
These two were one year older than her. They were classmates in junior high school when they played games, but they went to different high schools later.
At that time, they also used best friend IDs, only one word was different, and their nicknames were all from the same series.
A girl snapped her fingers and said, "B, Miss, you are so smart."
"You are Brother Rabbit?" Brother Ran frowned and was still guessing, "Is it Hongyan?"
The girl in front of me looks to be only twenty years old, but almost all girls here are under twenty years old, and they seem to be indistinguishable.
At this time, the door of the private room was pushed open again, and the girl asked at the door, "Did I hear someone calling me?"
This was a girl with short hair. Qiao Xiyin turned her head and curled her lips, "Hongyanyan."
Hongyan was two years older than her, and they had a good relationship in private. They had met on video a long time ago, so Qiao Xiyin recognized her at a glance.
"Ah, Xiao Qiao." The beauty came up and gave her a big bear hug, "You are getting more and more beautiful."
Back then, Qiao Xiyin's game ID was Xiao Qiao.
Qiao Xiyin lowered her eyes shyly and said softly, "No, your new hairstyle looks great too."
Brother Ran pressed his temples. Not only him, but also the people sitting next to him were surprised.
"Wow, you are actually Qiao Qiao"
"Sister Qiaoqiao, you are so beautiful, oooh, let me lick you."
"Have I seen you before? The most beautiful art candidate who was trending on Weibo was you, Qiao Xiyin, right?"
Qiao Xiyin nodded, "Hello everyone"
So, everyone was very enthusiastic.
This was the first time that members of the family had met in five years. All fifteen people came before six o'clock. Everyone gathered around the table and introduced themselves one by one. The few people who came behind once again made crazy moves to Qiao Xiyin. slander.
When fifteen people are chatting, there are always a few who are silent and a few who are particularly talkative.
Everyone shared what happened in the game. The first one was to scold Brother Ran, "Brother, why do you want to hang our family name outside the hotel? Do you know the way your waiter looks at us? It's so embarrassing."
"Really, I can't imagine. Seeing this name reminds me of my years back then." The person who spoke was Chen Xi.
Oh, she also has an ID called 俿伟然の爱灬.
Brother Ran touched his nose with an innocent look on his face, "Oh, wouldn't it be easier for everyone to recognize me? If you stand on the street, you can tell it's our hotel at a glance."
Everyone at the table ""
Hongyan took a sip of juice and said seriously, "Lao Ran, you are the one who reminds us of our green days."
Brother Ran ""
I don't know who raised the cup, "There are no eighteen-year-olds here anymore, come on, let's drink to adulthood and drink to Ben Er."
Of course, no one responded to her.
Only Brother Ran picked up his cup leisurely and said, "Oh, I'm the one taking the lead."
Qiao Xiyin was the third one to raise her cup, "You are still the one taking the lead."
The whole audience burst into laughter.
Brother Ran fell into silence again.
"Sister Qiao," he said plaintively as he drank all the juice in the glass, "don't laugh at me just because you are young and beautiful."
Qiao Xiyin didn't laugh for long.
Because the topic went round and round, it soon came to her.
"The admission notice for Sister Qiao should have come out, which university is it?"
The speaker was a girl, nicknamed Lele, who was the same age as Qiao Xiyin. Qiao Xiyin came of age in June, and she was a few months older than her. She also took the college entrance examination this year.
Qiao Xiyin looked at her QQ space and found that she had very good grades and was admitted to a certain 985 school in China.
"First play," she said.
"Art student" Lele glanced at her and kept smiling, "That's right. Sister Qiao, you are so pretty and it would be a pity not to go to the entertainment industry. Oh, I didn't bring a pen and paper, otherwise I would have to sign your name for me."
Brother Ran then said, "In a few years, we will all know big stars."
Qiao Xiyin smiled sheepishly.
"By the way, your Zhou Lang didn't come," Lizi suddenly asked, "He doesn't seem to have joined the group."
Zhou Lang is a joking name, referring to Qiao Xiyin's lover in the game.
The two met for the first time because of a love mission in the game. Qiao Xiyin went around the world wearing a horn and a ring to look for c. At that time, the highest level in the game was 60. She had reached the max level, so a group of people rushed to send her emails. She chose one at random, which was Zhou Lang.
At that time, his name was not Zhou Lang, but his name was "Look at the sky at dawn and look at the clouds at dusk". Tang Bohu's lyrics were like a breath of fresh air among a group of elementary and junior high school students with non-mainstream IDs. This ID was also the most pleasing to Qiao Xiyin.
Qiao Xiyin has never seen Xiaokantiansemukanyun have friends in the game. The friend rating is 0. There are no messages left by any friends in the room. After getting to know her, she always plays with her every time she goes online. Joined her family after its founding.
Around the time of the National Day, Xiaokantianzi and Duuguanyun had their numbers stolen once, their props and money were emptied, and their marriage was divorced, so the two got married for the second time.
When he got married for the first time, he paid for the ring by looking at the sky at dawn and the clouds at dusk. There are three types of rings in the game. The poor model uses original silver coins, the middle class model costs RMB 5, and the rich model costs 50 yuan. He bought the second one. kind.
When she got married for the second time, Qiao Xiyin really wanted that wealthy man's ring, so she couldn't help but explain that she paid for it and added fifty fame points to it, which had a significant effect on personal attributes.
Unexpectedly, a few days after this second marriage, Xiao looked at the sky and dusk looked at the clouds and changed his name to Zhou Yu.
The name change card costs thirty-five yuan.
Qiao Xiyin felt really sad.
He joined the 213 Youth League after changing his name. It was the National Day holiday and almost everyone was there. The name also caused a sensation in the family.
Therefore, he also has the nickname Zhou Lang.
Qiao Xiyin sometimes yells like this when joking.
"He stopped playing four years ago, and I have no contact with him anymore." Qiao Xiyin shook her head.
Although there is a lover system in the game, and there are lovers in the game here, no one has developed it into reality. Because there was a saying at that time that wearing a ring was just for fame and fortune, so you could just find someone of the opposite sex to get along with you.
This game is a life game, with a huge disparity between men and women. The opposite sex is either a friend or a trumpet, or the woman is pretending to be a man.
For example, there is a girl here who plays a boy's role and pretends to be quite similar. If she hadn't admitted it herself a few years ago, no one would have believed that she was a girl.
"What a pity," Hongyan sighed, "I think you two have a very good relationship."
After their second marriage, Xu's relationship with Qiao Xiyin developed rapidly because of their shared experience of adversity. He was hacked and left alone, but Qiao Xiyin helped him upgrade. A year later, he came back to play after the high school entrance examination. The maximum level in the game changed from 60 to 99. Qiao Xiyin was stuck at 90. Because she couldn't move due to the high amount of experience, Zhou Yu spent money to get her to the maximum level.
Moreover, when Zhou Yu goes online, he will only go to Qiao Xiyin.
"I really have no contact with him," Qiao Xiyin said with a smile, "Actually, I'm not afraid of your laughter. I always thought he was a girl before."
Zhou Yu's way of speaking is that she likes to use Internet slang such as "", "v", ""2333", and her tone is very gentle. It's not like Qiao Xiyin has never exchanged QQ with Zhou Yu. The QQ level he gave was only stars and moons, the space was clean, it was almost never updated, and no one liked the signature. It looked like a small account at first glance.
He also said that he had a sister who was online after he had not been online for some time. His sister was online and her tone of voice was exactly the same as his.
She also added her sister's QQ account. Although her sister can act cute and call her sister-in-law, this is just a small account that has only been established for a few days.
Qiao Xiyin thought he was stupid from the other side of the screen. His acting was really poor. He might as well change his tone of voice.
So at that time, she suspected that her sister and Zhou Yu were the same person, or that Zhou Yu was a girl. Without this layer of separation, there was no need to worry about her chatting with Zhou Yu in the game. Everyone tried their best to play the role of "lovers", which was actually quite interesting.
Later, he suddenly disappeared from the world and could not be found on QQ. He must have deleted his friends, and Qiao Xiyin didn't even take it to heart.
Just a little sentimental
But I have to admit that if Zhou Yu were a boy, he would be an all-around good boyfriend.
This topic will be skipped here.
The meal lasted until nine o'clock, and everyone hadn't finished chatting yet. Considering the time problem, we dispersed first. Anyway, we can get together again later.
A few people drank some wine and called for a driver outside. Qiao Xiyin and Hongyan got on the subway together.
Hongyan was a local and offered to take Qiao Xiyin back to the hotel. Qiao Xiyin was very cautious when she came here. It was better during the day, and she would avoid being alone if she could at night, so she readily agreed.
The two chatted for a while before Qiao Xiyin went up the stairs.
After returning to the room and connecting to the hotel's ifi, Qiao Xiyin had a sudden idea and searched the web to log in to her email.
The first contact in the mailbox is Zhou Yu, and the last email was four years ago.
School is about to start, and the next three years of nightmare life will come. I will miss you, be good 3
The author has something to say. The inspiration for this world came from one day during the winter vacation. QQ suddenly reminded me that you and xxx have been friends for five years.
xxx is my friend when I was playing games. I chatted with her for a long time and remembered a lot of things.
At that time, web games like Little Flower Fairy Moore Manor were very popular, and we played similar games. We liked to chat all day long in the room or in the dungeon. We are all in the same age group of 12, 13 or 14 years old. We like Xu Liang’s exo, who still speaks with his mouth open and closed in a “cute” way. I think this is cool and fashionable. The name 2b Youth League was given by me, and 213 was named by the people who convinced me. I was a manager back then, but I didn't get much online when I was promoted to clan leader. I also acted like a drama queen and wanted to start my own clan. I would create conflicts and pretend to quarrel with others and then quit the clan and leave the blame to others. So I also have the potential to be a heroine
Later, when I went to high school and college, a circle was broken up, but the group was still there. After so many years, everyone still kept in touch. The games had changed so much, but the closest people were still the people in this circle. The first netizen I met when I went to Suzhou two years ago was a friend from this game.
Sometimes childhood friendships can really last a lifetime.
Ah, why have I said so much? In fact, I am not usually like this. You must remember that I am a serious and cold author╭╰╮
