Chapter 103 Did you know he got married?
While they were chatting, Yan Xun had already finished searching for movie reviews and analyses.
Most viewers felt that Yan Xun's character was the mastermind, and Mu Yuanming was his tool and pawn.
After Mu Yuanming's death, Yan Xun began to manipulate the other members of the study group to do his bidding.
As for Mu Yuanming's feelings for Yan Xun in the movie—
Some viewers felt pure guilt, while others described it as a beautiful love story.
Yan Xun didn't think so. She felt that their relationship was purely cooperative. Yan Xun had no other feelings for Mu Yuanming, and Mu Yuanming was just following orders. As for why he was obedient, it was probably because he was really good at manipulating others in the movie.
“I agree with what the film review said.” Yan Xun shoved his phone in front of them.
"The script didn't reveal anything else at the time?" Ning Xinian was annoyed that Yan Xun was just giving them such a perfunctory answer.
"Even if you revealed it, I wouldn't understand." Yan Xun chuckled. His persona in the group was that of a handsome, irritable fool who couldn't hide his feelings at all. So when the movie revealed that he was the mastermind behind everything, many fans were shocked and said it was a breakthrough performance.
The movie ended, and commercials started playing on TV again. Ning Xinian watched for a while, but he wasn't going to stay up any longer with them. He stood up and asked, "How late are you guys planning to stay up?"
He Jinqiu looked at Yan Xun, as if wanting to ask for his thoughts.
"I'm going to sleep right away."
Yan Xun said.
He casually put the bottled water in his hand aside, turned off the TV, and stood up.
"I'm going to take a shower."
He Jinqiu nodded obediently, "You go first."
After Yan Xun left, his gaze lingered on the bottle of water Yan Xun had left behind... Ning Xinian, standing to the side, observed his changing expressions with his arms crossed. "Have you two been having a fight lately?"
He Jinqiu shook her head. "Probably not."
He put down the cushion he was holding, stood up, and stretched slightly. "Yan Xun is probably too tired."
Ning Xinian shrugged upon hearing this, did not ask any further questions, and instead chose to walk towards his bedroom.
……
When Yan Xun finished showering and dried his hair, he entered his and He Jinqiu's bedroom and saw He Jinqiu wearing headphones, holding a notebook and leaning against the bed, doodling.
Upon seeing Yan Xun enter, He Jinqiu took off her headphones. "Are you done washing up?"
"Ah."
"Then I'll go too."
As He Jinqiu spoke, she put her headphones aside and casually placed her sketchbook and pen on the table.
He took out a change of clothes from the wardrobe, right in Yan Xun's sight.
"I might take a while to shower," He Jinqiu said to Yan Xun, handing her the clothes. "You can go to sleep first."
Yan Xun nodded and waved his hand, appearing indifferent.
He draped a towel over his head, sat on the edge of the bed, and looked down at his phone. Only after hearing He Jinqiu close the door and leave did Yan Xun put down what he was holding and walk directly to He Jinqiu's bedside.
I opened He Jinqiu's sketchbook.
He Jinqiu had no drawing skills whatsoever; the contents of her sketchbook were just random scribbles.
The sketchbook always features various houses, with windows arranged in a grid pattern, and outside the windows, there is a black substance that almost blocks out the sky.
There was also a pair of eyes staring into the window.
In almost every scene, there is a pair of eyes staring out the window.
Yan Xun flipped through a few pages and noticed that the eyes that had been looking around were now meeting his gaze as he read.
Until the last page.
The eyes outside the window almost met those of Yan Xun as he flipped through his sketchbook.
【I'm watching you.】
I've been watching you.
These two lines were written in the sketchbook.
Inside the room were little stick figures crying, one holding a knife. Behind him was a large, dirty patch that looked like bloodstains.
Yan Xun closed his sketchbook and then tiptoed back to his bed to lie down.
Upon entering this instance, Yan Xun discovered that he was in a semi-disconnected state from the system. His inventory and backpack were unresponsive, seemingly because the instance was not very dangerous, and the game wanted players to have a more immersive role-playing experience.
Even the live stream room was inaccessible to Yan Xun in this instance.
He also remembered that in one of the walkthroughs he had read, someone shared an ending in which He Jinqiu was the one who had a sister-in-law.
Players need to cover for him when he goes out on a date with his girlfriend.
The more time they spent together, the more information He Jinqiu revealed. It was by seeing He Jinqiu's phone password that the player was able to find out who He Jinqiu's sister-in-law was, and then successfully completed the 30-day challenge.
The death traps mentioned in the forum are of two types.
One possibility is that he was framed for being a dating celebrity, which led to him being assassinated by a crazed fan.
One type is being betrayed by teammates and experiencing social death by leaving the group.
Both endings are considered bad endings, meaning players can only start over from the branch of the previous save file.
No player has ever encountered two revenge killings in less than a day since entering the game... Yan Xun even suspected that the main system was deliberately messing with him.
While he was thinking, He Jinqiu also finished showering and returned to the bedroom.
He glanced at the sketchbook that was still there, then at Yan Xun who was lying on the bed playing on his phone.
"What did Brother Bai say to you alone before?" He Jinqiu asked as she dried her hair and walked to Yan Xun's bedside.
Yan Xun lay on the bed, holding her phone in both hands, glancing at him out of the corner of her eye.
"Want to know?"
"Of course I want to." He Jinqiu placed his hand on the edge of Yan Xun's bed, half-squatting on the floor, looking at Yan Xun. "Did I secretly tell you some good news?"
Yan Xun wasn't sure if He Jinqiu knew he had connections.
So he turned over and lay on his side looking at He Jinqiu, "Why would Brother Bai tell me good news alone?"
"He just asked me some questions about recording the show."
He Jinqiu's expression was hard to decipher, whether it was disappointment or something else. He draped a towel around his neck, brushed his hair back over his forehead, revealing a scar that ran from his forehead to his brow bone.
Because her vision on this side isn't very good, He Jinqiu always habitually faces others with the side that wasn't injured when she talks to them.
But perhaps because she had been roommates with Yan Xun for three years, and because it was just the two of them in the room, He Jinqiu did not shy away from showing her hidden scars.
"Yan Xun".
He Jinqiu looked at him.
"Did Song Baiyuan really not say anything else to you?"
Yan Xun was surprised that He Jinqiu actually called Song Baiyuan by his name directly—but it wasn't surprising, after all, which worker doesn't call their boss that? It was just that He Jinqiu still remembered some manners and didn't directly call him by his surname, Song.
"What could he possibly say to me?" Yan Xun was genuinely curious.
Why did he feel like He Jinqiu's words were implied? Could it be that this person knew some inside information?
He Jinqiu finally couldn't help but ask, "Song Baiyuan didn't even tell you about his marriage?"
"Although this matter has not been officially announced, many people in the industry know that he secretly got his marriage certificate."
