“Ah! Zhu Zhu, is your period here?!”
Seeing Xia Tiantian shoo the camera guy away and block all the camera positions, Bai Baozhu was utterly bewildered.
She stood up and discovered a patch of blood on the chair she had been sitting on.
“……?”
Bai Baozhu’s head was full of question marks. Having never experienced a period before, her first reaction was—
Holy crap! Had she gotten injured somewhere?!
However, after recalling from the original host’s memories what a period was, Bai Baozhu immediately… felt like crying.
Especially when, soon after, because of a box of ice cream she had eaten the night before, her stomach started to ache. She felt even more like crying.
“It’s okay, I’ll go boil you some brown sugar ginger water. Drink a bowl, put a warm patch on your stomach, rest for a while, and the pain will go away.”
Hearing Xia Tiantian’s words, Bai Baozhu felt not the slightest bit comforted. Instead, she felt even more miserable.
Waaah, why were the women in this world so pitiful!
Not only did they have to bear children, but they also had to deal with this period thing! /(ㄒoㄒ)/~~
So tragic!
After downing a bowl of scalding hot brown sugar ginger water, Bai Baozhu finally felt a bit better, and her stomach wasn’t hurting as much.
“You, next time before your period comes, don’t eat ice cream anymore. You don’t know how to take care of yourself at all.”
Seeing Bai Baozhu looking completely wilted, Xia Tiantian thought it was because her stomach hurt too much, making her look like a frost-bitten eggplant.
But how could she know that Bai Baozhu was suffering from ‘internal injuries’!
“How was I supposed to know when it was coming.”
Bai Baozhu angrily thumped the pillow she was hugging, feeling a bit irritable.
Especially when she thought about how, from now on, she would have to endure this bloody ordeal every single month. That made her even more irritable!
Seeing Bai Baozhu’s foul expression and unfriendly tone, Xia Tiantian, who knew this was period syndrome, chuckled.
“Alright, alright, I won’t provoke you today. You rest well.”
“Sister Tian Tian, I’m sorry. I don’t know what’s wrong with me either, I just feel very irritable, a bit unable to control my emotions.”
Bai Baozhu gloomily thumped the pillow again, feeling increasingly that the women of this world really had it too hard!
Not only did they have to deal with a period every month! They also had to be responsible for having children!
And men, they had no such troubles at all! Why! Why?!
Especially when Bai Baozhu thought about how, on this show, several women liked the same man, chased after the same man, and that man could… casually make a choice among them as he pleased.
At this moment, Bai Baozhu grew even angrier!
He was just a man who was slightly good-looking! What right did he have! What gave him the face to enjoy having several women like him!
And that Lin Dong, who clearly didn’t like Xia Tiantian but had still exchanged love text messages with her for several days!
He really had some nerve! Didn’t he know a woman’s time and feelings were precious?! If you don’t like someone, just give a clear signal! Being all ambiguous and dragging things out! What was that about?
Looking for a backup on the show?!
And that Jiang Boyan…
At this moment, Bai Baozhu, experiencing her first period ever, had transformed into a popping boba, the super explosive kind that popped at the slightest touch.
Because she was so jealous and resentful that the men in this world didn’t have periods, she went on a mental rampage, ranting about every single male guest on Love Cottage one by one.
So she decided—
She would make a table full of an all-sweet feast!
She’d nauseate that man Bo Shenyu who didn’t like sweets to death!
And just as Bai Baozhu was planning to make an all-sweet feast to nauseate Bo Shenyu, she had no idea that, in the real world outside Love Cottage, she had completely blown up.
To be precise, it was Little Fairy who had blown up.
The video of her playing games with Song Zhi that day had been recorded by someone spectating and posted online.
Originally, the video was only circulating on a small scale among game players. Although it was bound to go viral eventually, it hadn’t taken off yet for the time being.
But unexpectedly, the ferociously skilled Da Qiao in the video attracted the attention of a very popular professional esports team coach. After he reposted it on his Weibo, he even asked if anyone knew this Little Fairy, saying he wanted to recruit her into a professional team and so on and so forth…
Thus, within just half a day, under multiple influences, Little Fairy instantly went viral!
And she made it onto the hot search list with multiple trending keywords!
LittleFairy、SongZhi#、#WhoIsLittleFairy?#、#LittleFairy、ProfessionalEsportsTeam#…
Among the countless trending keywords, #LittleFairy、SongZhi was the hottest!
Because Song Zhi had never been so intimately involved with any member of the opposite sex before, let alone played games alone with one!
So, people began to speculate: was this Little Fairy Song Zhi’s girlfriend?
This conjecture was practically driving Song Zhi’s girlfriend fans insane.
Fans who didn’t want their idol to be in a relationship started frantically searching for evidence that Little Fairy couldn’t possibly be Song Zhi’s girlfriend.
Meanwhile, the melon-eating masses, who loved drama, went wild looking for evidence that Song Zhi and Little Fairy were connected!
As a result, the more they dug into Little Fairy, searching for all sorts of evidence and information, the more they discovered—
Holy shit! How could this Little Fairy be so cool?!
Ahhh! So domineering! So dreamy! I’m here for it! Fairy Sister, look at me! I’m here for it too!
The people who had originally been digging for Little Fairy’s real identity ended up getting captivated by her while digging! They became engrossed in watching Little Fairy’s past gaming videos, unable to extricate themselves~
Thus, thanks to everyone’s ‘hard work,’ Little Fairy spectacularly made it onto the hot search list!
As for Song Zhi…
“Bro! How could you secretly play games with Little Fairy behind our backs!”
When Wei Haoyang woke up, he found the whole world had changed!
His former team captain had actually gone behind his back to poach his ‘target’!
Although it seemed… he hadn’t succeeded, hehehe! He couldn’t help but feel a bit of schadenfreude.
“Brother Zhi, what about the hot search gossip about you and Little Fairy? Should we ask Brother Cheng to help you get it removed from the hot search list?”
Luo Xiao held his phone, looking at the real-time updates online, the smile gone from his face.
This was the first time Song Zhi had made it onto the hot search list because of romantic gossip.
Moreover, the girl linked with Song Zhi in the gossip was a civilian player they didn’t know at all.
This wasn’t just causing trouble for Song Zhi; it would also affect that civilian player.
“Mm, I’ve already contacted Brother Cheng. I asked him to help me remove the hot searches related to Little Fairy.”
Song Zhi nodded slightly, his expression calm on the surface. But in reality, he was filled with regret.
He shouldn’t have invited that girl to play games alone today. Otherwise, she wouldn’t be implicated and discussed, doxxed by the entire internet.
At this moment, Song Zhi truly felt full of guilt and apology towards Little Fairy, that civilian player.
However, just as Song Zhi was anxiously asking Cheng Yingda to remove the hot searches!
Over on the internet, people were starting to get some leads on Little Fairy’s identity!
Although, not a single person believed it →_→
[Oh my god oh my god oh my god! I watched the game video where Little Fairy and Song Zhi played together with their mics on! Don’t you guys really think Little Fairy’s voice sounds exactly like the voice of Bai Baozhu, the female lead number one from the hit dating reality show Love Cottage?!]
Just as the entire internet was searching for who Little Fairy really was, a rather discordant voice suddenly appeared…
However, even though it was a discordant voice, some netizens shared the same view.
[Ah! I was wondering why Little Fairy’s voice sounded so familiar! So it’s because it sounds like Bai Baozhu’s voice!]
[I think it sounds a bit similar too! Although the voices aren’t identical, the vocal tone is the same.]
[And Little Fairy logs off every night after 10 PM and lives with a friend. That seems to match Bai Baozhu’s situation too!]
…
Many people with sharp ears and no prejudice against Bai Baozhu immediately felt there was a high probability that Bai Baozhu was Little Fairy.
However, such people were still in the minority.
The vast majority felt that anyone guessing Little Fairy was Bai Baozhu must be crazy!
[I think you all need to get your ears checked. Little Fairy is Bai Baozhu? You must be idiots. Even thinking with your toes, Bai Baozhu couldn’t possibly be Little Fairy! Does she look like someone who plays games, let alone plays them well?!]
[Little Fairy and Bai Baozhu are two completely different types of people. How could they be the same person? It’s not like she has a split personality.]
[Little Fairy and Bai Baozhu absolutely cannot be the same person. It’s common knowledge that Love Cottage confiscates the dating guests’ phones. She simply has no chance to play games, so she definitely can’t be Little Fairy!]
[If Little Fairy turns out to be Bai Baozhu, I’ll livestream myself eating a keyboard!]
…
Because the discussion became too heated, before Song Zhi’s side could even get the hot searches removed, the keyword ‘Is Bai Baozhu Little Fairy?’ made it onto the hot search list!
“I… what the… is this for real? Bro, did you see? They’re saying online that Little Fairy might be that Bai Baozhu from Love Cottage?!”
“This is too unreal! It can’t be! What are the odds of something so coincidental…”
Listening to Wei Haoyang and Luo Xiao, Song Zhi’s brows slowly furrowed, and his lips moved slightly.
He wanted to speak but ultimately said nothing, just gazing deeply at the comments online.
He had also wondered, because their vocal tones were so similar, whether Little Fairy and Bai Baozhu were the same person. But after interacting with them, Song Zhi still wasn’t sure.
In fact, he also felt that Bai Baozhu and Little Fairy were two completely different people.
But now, quite a few people thought Little Fairy was Bai Baozhu…
Just as Song Zhi was tangled over whether Little Fairy was Bai Baozhu, he had no idea that the informed staff of Love Cottage, upon seeing the hot search keyword #LittleFairy、BaiBaozhu#, were all utterly dumbfounded!
Especially when they saw that Bai Baozhu, just by playing a game, could get linked with Song Zhi. They were even more baffled!
“Holy crap! This is too much of a coincidence! If you say they just happened to meet while gaming, would anyone really believe that?!”
