“Why would I bully you?” Hearing Lin Zixuan’s words, Hong Dali felt strange and asked, “I just wanted to ask you where you are going next. You don’t have any money with you, are you going to sleep on the streets at night?”

Upon hearing Hong Dali’s words, Lin Zixuan’s lips flattened and sobbed again. “Then, then what can I do? I, I can only do that now.”

“Oh, have no fear.” Hong Dali snapped his fingers. “Reward, 1,000.”

The male lackey standing behind him took out the money and was going to start counting, but Tang Muxin immediately stopped him. “Dali, are you silly, why are giving her so much in one shot!?”

“Is 1,000 a lot? You see how pitiful she is, she doesn’t even have a place to stay.” Hong Dali strangely asked. “I don’t lack this bit of money, anyway.”

“I know that you don’t lack money.” Tang Muxin said, “But the problem is, look at how young she is! That’s 1,000 yuan! Maybe to you, it’s just pocket money. But to ordinary people, this isn’t a small sum. It isn’t a problem for you to give it to her, but what if some hooligan discovered about it. If they want to snatch her money, that will become a big problem!”

“That’s true, Xinxin, you are indeed more meticulous.” Hong Dali touched his chin. “Then, Zixuan, why did you run away from home? Can you tell me? If you tell me, I will send you home—your reason for coming here through delivery is really hard to believe…”

“I, I…” Lin Zixuan cried again. “Why don’t you believe me?”

“Er…” Hong Dali was at a loss of what to say.

In the end, Tang Muxin, who was also a female, was able to interact better with her. She held Lin Zixuan’s hand and softly said, “Zixuan, don’t be afraid. Look at him, even tigers like him, this shows that he is a person of high moral quality, right? What was the actual reason that you ran away from home? Tell me, I will help you!”

She proved the saying that beautiful women tended to gain the trust of others easily. After all, Lin Zixuan was still young. She looked at Tang Muxin with her teary, big eyes and finally admitted, “Actually, I secretly escaped from there, sob, sob!”

“Escaped?!” Hong Dali was horrified. “You ran away from home, right?! You’re only 13 to 14 years old, right? Only so young, and you already dared to run away from home?”

“It’s my parent’s fault for not letting me play games.” Mentioning this, Lin Zixuan expressed great grievances. Her tears rolled down non-stop. “All they do every day is ask me to study hard and study hard, study from morning to night. I couldn’t stand it anymore, so I secretly ran out, sob, sob…”

Wow!

Hearing that, Hong Dali stared in bewilderment.

Were children nowadays all so savage? They ran away from home just because they couldn’t play games? Luckily, this lass seemed quite quick-witted. Otherwise, she might have already been sold off by kidnappers to god knows where.

“Do you really like playing games so much?” Hong Dali stared in bewilderment. “You away from home just because your parents don’t let you play games?”

Lin Zixuan fiercely nodded. “Yup! I love playing games! Love playing games!”

This was the first time he heard a small lass saying that she loved to play games. Normally, it was the little boys who would be saying that…

But Hong Dali was free and had nothing better to do, so he fiercely slapped his thigh and said, “Then, let’s go! There’s an Internet cafe not far from here. It belongs to my family. Speaking of which, I haven’t gone there even once. I shall bring you there to play games! After you’re satisfied with playing, I shall send you home. How does that sound?”

Who knew that this small lass wasn’t silly at all. “Playing games is OK, but not going home!”

“My god!” Hong Dali went frantic. “You would rather not go home just to play games?”

“I’m not going home, I’m just not going home!” Lin Zixuan’s small face cried until it looked like someone doodled on it. She struggled to get up. “I better leave, sob, sob. If I go back home, I will have to study from day to night again…”

“OK, OK…” Hong Dali was really helpless. “Then, let’s not send you home first—I’m just bored from having nothing better to do. Let’s go, I’m bringing you to play games. You’re referring to computer games, right?”

“Real… really?” Lin Zixuan immediately stopped crying. “You must keep your promise, let’s cross our little fingers!”

This fellow was definitely the reincarnation of a leading actress that won the Golden Horse Award. Hong Dali was 100% sure of that.

The two of them crossed fingers, and the matter was basically decided.

After exiting the eatery and walking for less than 20 meters, they reached the Internet cafe that Hong Anbao previously sold to Hong Dali. They walked in with heads held high and chests protruding out, causing the network administrator to wonder who they were at first. But soon after, he recognized Hong Dali as his new boss and instantly came up to greet them.

The Internet cafe wasn’t small, there were about 200 plus computers inside that were all equipped with 27-inch monitors. The computers were all new, and it was pretty obvious that the business here was quite good.

Hong Dali didn’t care that Lin Zixuan’s whole body was covered in dirt and directly asked her to seat at an empty slot. Then, he carried Quentin while Tang Muxin carried Corn, and the two of them just stood behind her, watching her play.

Speaking of which, regarding playing games, Lin Zixuan indeed didn’t lie.

She turned on the computer as if she were very familiar with it and then opened a game called “The Draconic Continent Language.” After entering her username and password, she entered the game.

“The Draconic Continent Language” was about the same as a game that he played in his previous life, “Disconnected City and Weak Warrior,” a side-scrolling 2D online game. The graphics were barely acceptable. Hong Dali didn’t feel strange at all—the people in this world were more interested in sports, there wasn’t a lot of people who played online games normally. At least, compared to his previous life, there were much fewer passionate professional gamers in this world.

The commotion here had attracted the attention of quite a lot of gamers. But when there saw their bearing, especially the tiger in Hong Dali’s arms, they immediately shrunk back—someone one who could bring a tiger out on the streets was definitely someone they couldn’t afford to offend. If they dared to walk up to Hong Dali and his group, they would definitely be pulled out of the cafe and beaten to death.

As for Lin Zixuan, when she entered the game, she didn’t go to the wilderness to hunt for equipment but instead directly entered the PVP area.

Hong Dali was surprised. “Zixuan, this place that you entered is a PVP area, right? Is your equipment enough?”

“No problem!” Lin Zixuan sniffled and said, “Normally, all of them can’t defeat me. But I haven’t played for many days, my skills are a bit rusty.” As she spoke, she quickly found a challenger. Thus, under Hong Dali and Tang Muxin’s bewildered gaze, after some quick movement, her opponent died when she had only dropped 1/5 of her HP…

“Yes! I won!” Lin Zixuan cheered. “He didn’t even reduce 1/5 of my HP!”

Hong Dali’s and Tang Muxin’s faces were full of sweat—she was definitely a rising star in the gaming world, it was an understatement to say that her hand speed was flying about the keyboard.

Then, something dramatical happened.

“What the heck! What situation is this!” From behind Hong Dali came a man’s howling voice. “This fellow is equipped with only rubbish, but why is he so fearsome. Damnit! My equipment is so impressive, but I only managed to tear away a bit of her blood! Not even 1/5…”

As that voice spoke to this point, the person suddenly realized something. Then, Hong Dali and Tang Muxin were also dazed. The few of them gradually turned around, and Hong Dali saw the guy who was abused stood there for an entire five seconds as if he had seen a ghost. Then, he rolled and crawled over and shouted, “God! Where is God? Quick, let me see if it’s you!”

This dude was obviously a bit too anxious, he didn’t even notice the tiger cub in Hong Dali’s arms. He directly ran over and snatched Lin Zixuan’s mouse. “Big Sister, let me see if it’s you!” He looked at Lin Zixuan’s avatar’s name and equipment, then he kneeled. “Big Sister, let me follow you from now on! Would you like something to drink? I shall pay for your gaming fee! I will pay for it!”

Lin Zixuan wasn’t happy. “Who’s your Big Sister! I’m only 14, OK!”

“Four… fourteen years old!” That man’s nose mucus almost flowed out. “Only 14, and your skills are already so good?! If it weren’t because your equipment was too lousy, I wouldn’t even be able to catch your shadow, right!?”

At this moment, Hong Dali finally had a chance to interrupt. “Hey, you. Bro, is the influence of the equipment in the game very big?”

“You don’t even know about gaming?!” Then, the guy noticed Quentin. “What the heck, is this a tiger? I don’t have much knowledge, don’t try to bluff me… it won’t bite me, right?”

“Ah, no, it doesn’t bite.” Hong Dali hurriedly changed the topic. “Can you introduce this game to me? I noticed that most of the people here are playing this game?”

“You don’t even know about ‘The Draconic Continent Language’?” This guy was obviously a fan of gaming. Once he started to talk about gaming, he couldn’t stop. “This is the current most popular online game in the entire world. The balance between all of the professionals are almost perfect, and the most important factor that affects whether you win or lose is your gaming skills, only after that is the equipment. Good equipment doesn’t make you formidable in the game, but good skills will definitely make you formidable. This little sister’s equipment is…” He sighed and continued, “It can be said to be the worst. What a pity, if her equipment was better, she could definitely wipe out everyone!”

Just as he spoke up to this point, Lin Zixuan suddenly said with resentment, “Damn it, my equipment is too lousy. Otherwise, I would have won!”

“There is no need to feat, just continue fighting!” Hong Dali comforted Lin Zixuan and suddenly asked the man, “Then, can the equipment in the game be bought?”

“It’s possible, but it’s too expensive.” The man slightly calculated and said, “If you want a full set of the best quality equipment, it will cost at least 10,000 or more. That isn’t a small amount.”

“10,000?” Hong Dali calmly looked at the lackey standing at the side. “Ask the network administrator to come over here. Just say that I want to buy some equipment.”

“OK!” The lackey jogged away and came back with the network administrator moments later. “Young Master, you asked for me?”

“Buy her a full set of the best quality equipment. I’m talking about the best there is in the game.” Hong Dali pointed at Lin Zixuan who was seated on the chair and overwhelming her opponent. “I will pay for the expenses.”

Now, the commotion here had already alarmed all of the people in the Internet cafe. All of them gathered around them and softly commented:

“Buying a full set of the best equipment? That will need about 10 to 20 thousand, isn’t it!?”

“Yup, he’s a nouveau riche! That isn’t a small sum of money!”

“The problem is, who is he buying it for? The little beggar who’s playing now? You don’t say, her skills are really impressive!”

“Quick, look! Isn’t that a tiger that the nouveau riche is carrying!?”

“It really is! What the heck, this isn’t just a nouveau riche. He’s a God-level nouveau riche, isn’t he!?”

Speaking of which, it was very normal for these people who normally spent time in the Internet cafe or at home not to recognize Hong Dali. If it were other people from the outside, Hong Dali would be recognized the moment he showed his face.

The network administrator was buying the equipment for Lin Zixuan. Order, trade, transfer the money. Half an hour later, Lin Zixuan had changed to a set of the best equipment in the whole game. Then, everyone had an eye-opener…

A legit wipeout! There wasn’t a single opponent who could stand against her in the entire PK arena. At the start, her PK level was only mid-level. But after an hour of overwhelming other players, her level directly climbed to high-level. By now, she had alarmed all of the players in the server. Numerous players came to watch her performance, and her opponents also became more and more strong—but even with the lousiest equipment she could still overwhelm her opponents, there was no need to mention how she was doing now when she had the best equipment in the game.
