"Why are you looking at me like that?" Shen Mian found that Gu Henzhi had been staring at her, which was the direction of the camera, and she stopped what she was about to say. "Or are you not too interested in this?"
After all, he didn't give her any reaction.
She is not unreasonable. If he really doesn't like her, as a qualified girlfriend, it's not impossible to give up some points to respect his wishes.
"Is this competition of interest to you, or is it because it might gain the attention of the military as I just said?"
He wanted to know what she was thinking.
Although Gu Henzhi rarely had private contact with girls, it did not mean that he knew nothing about the opposite sex.
There are not many women interested in this kind of competition, but not many. In fact, there is nothing wrong with Mianmian being interested in unknown things. This is her personality, otherwise she wouldn't have asked so many questions just now.
However, Gu Henzhi could clearly see that even though she was curious about this game before, she was not as interested as she is now.
·All these changes probably started from that brief pause.
Before that, the things they were talking about were matters related to the military department.
Putting aside the initial wariness of meeting Shen Mian, and recalling what happened to him after meeting her, all the "unbelievable" actions she did seemed to have something to do with him.
Even if I don’t know why all of this started, it was probably all for him. He is not an overly slow person, so he can naturally feel it.
Perhaps it is precisely because of this that in the process of getting along with her, the vigilance and preparedness towards the mission target will melt away little by little, and even occasionally be thrown out of his mind. This is for him in the past. It's absolutely impossible.
"What if I say I'm interested?" Shen Mian asked tentatively.
She didn't quite understand what Gu Henzhi meant by asking.
This is probably due to some kind of inertia of thinking. For games, if you open up a dungeon and enter the plot, no matter what the player chooses, in the end they will probably reach the same goal. Even if she chooses the opposite answer to the plot, she will probably be turned back perfectly in the end.
Well, from the beginning, she actually never thought that her boyfriend would reject her because he was not interested in these things.
This gave her a moment of reflection. Was she taking it too much for granted?
Or perhaps, Gu Henzhi, as the male protagonist of the game, is a little unreasonable.
Something vaguely strange swirled in her heart again.
if he……
"If you're interested, it's okay for us to join together." Gu Henzhi continued. "It's probably a bit unexpected, but I invited you to Star Network originally to let you relax. You sound... a little tired these days."
In fact, this feeling is not very obvious, but Gu Henzhi has always been somewhat sensitive to this.
He could probably guess the reason why she didn't admit that she wanted to help him. It was probably to maintain some kind of self-esteem of a young man.
Although there was no great need, he accepted the favor.
"So, you said you wanted me to see the scenery?"
Shen Mian was startled for a moment, never thinking that this might be the reason.
She did play games to pass the time, but when the other person really wanted to make her happy without her knowing, she was a little uncomfortable for a while.
"Yeah." The other party admitted directly without any cover-up.
His eyes seemed to be looking straight at her through the screen.
This made her feel a sudden surge of warmth in her ears, and she was glad that she was not really face to face with him.
She is really lucky to have such a considerate boyfriend, right?
Shen Mian thought wildly in her mind for a few seconds, and then quickly came to her senses: "Then... let's try it together, okay?"
She shook his sleeves as she spoke, not realizing the hint of coquettishness in her tone.
In contrast, Gu Henzhi was much more sensitive to changes in her tone. He resisted the urge to reach out and rub the top of her hair, turned his wrist, and took her hand that was tugging on his sleeve, naturally switching the initiative back. He led her to the registration location.
In just a moment, her original action of pulling Gu Henzhi forward was reversed.
Shen Mian controlled the vision in the game and looked down, freezing at the place where he was holding her for a few seconds.
Originally she didn't feel anything different when she was walking in front, but now...it seems like there is no difference, but there is something that feels different.
At this time, Shen Mian, who was leaning on the chair, involuntarily changed his posture. One hand was still holding the mobile phone, and the other hand was unconsciously writing and drawing on the paper next to him with the pen in his hand.
It wasn't until Gu Henzhi's voice came from the phone and she realized that he had brought her to the registration location that she came back to her senses.
After reacting, he asked himself again about filling out the registration form.
Shen Mian quickly filled in the corresponding information on the registration form that popped up on the phone screen, and checked the box before teaming up with her boyfriend.
His eyes unconsciously glanced at the paper placed next to him, and suddenly he saw the word "Gu" that appeared on the paper after he had unconsciously sketched it just now.
Shen Mian seemed to be agitated by that word, and suddenly thought in her heart: Could it be that she really wanted to fall in love to have such a reaction?
"Mianmian, which mode do you want to choose?" Gu Henzhi's voice appeared in her ears.
Shen Mian drew her attention back and glanced at the introduction next to her.
Different game modes earn different points.
If you want to get the most points, the multiplayer team mode is naturally the best choice. The number of points is basically proportional to the number of enemies destroyed. Due to the team factor, the impact of failure on individuals is not particularly great.
However, these advantages and disadvantages come with it.
"What do you think?" she asked.
"First of all, do you want to try the two-player mode?" She heard Gu Henzhi ask.
Duo mode?
If you can get to the end, you will eventually participate in the game in a multiplayer team mode. The mode with a small number of people is mostly to adapt to the gameplay. Of course, you will also get more attention during a game.
"Okay." Shen Mian responded.
After selecting the game mode, a game matching countdown will appear on the screen soon.
[Matching opponents...]
[Matching successful, loading game! 】
When the game screen changed to the introduction of the two sides, both Shen Mian and Gu Henzhi were stunned for a moment when they saw the photo of their opponent.
There is no other reason than that the photo opposite is too familiar.
That's... Gu Zhiwu?
