"Gu Yingying! Stop right there!" Gu Yingying's father shouted angrily, but she remained unmoved. "Oh, by the way, you wish you didn't have a daughter like me? Well, I also wish I didn't have a father like you!"

The next moment, the door slammed shut with a loud bang, cutting off all the yelling and cursing from outside. Gu Beichuan had never been so angry before in all his years.

He shouldn't have taken in this daughter in the first place! It was like lifting a rock only to drop it on his own foot, and now he hadbrought trouble upon himself.

Chen Xiuling patted his back to calm him down. "Master, Yingying has always been obedient and sensible. Maybe she's just upset about something today. Tomorrow, when the sun comes up, she might be fine."

"What could she be upset about? She was with the Chen family's young master yesterday, and today she's involved with Lord Pei. I see her living carefree! If she doesn't apologize to the Li family tomorrow, she'll be kicked out of my house immediately! I won't keep her anymore!" Gu Beichuan fumed.

At that moment, the grandmother who hadbeen silent all this time suddenly spoke up. "That's enough! Yingying was indeed out of line today, but if you kick her out, will Pei Ziyue spare you? Do you not know what kind of person he is?"

Gu Beichuan fell silent, his anger slowly dissipating.

"Yingying hasn't had a father for over ten years, so it's understandable that she may not know certain things. You can punish her, but you have to make her understand where she went wrong. Otherwise, she'll just keep making the same mistakes, and people will say that you can't discipline your own child!" the grandmother continued."That's it for today! It's so late, what's the use of staying here! Let's all go back and sleep!" Grandma stood up and went back inside. Gu Beichuan glanced at Chen Xiuling and Gu Xue, sighed heavily, and said, "This is a disaster!"

Tomorrow morning, he would take her to the Li family to apologize, even if he had to tie her up!

The next morning, there was a rapid knocking on the door outside Gu Yingying's room.

Gu Yingying leaned against the window sill and quickly jumped down.Dream on if they thought she would go apologize to the Li family!

The white silk curtains fluttered in the morning breeze, and the empty bedroom was devoid of any trace of the beautiful woman.

When Gu Beichuan finally opened the door and saw the wide open window, his eyes were as dark as ink...

Gu Yingying was walking aimlessly on the street when her phone suddenly rang.

"Yingying, it's been a long time.you been?" A clear teenage voice sounded from the other end of the line.

Gu Yingying glanced at the caller ID: Chen Yu, the original owner's only best friend.

"Same as always. Is there something you need?" she asked.

"Nothing serious, I just wanted to ask if you want to go out for a drink?"

"Drinking in the morning?"

The teenager on the other end choked for a moment. "Uh, yeah, you're right. By the way, I heard there's an e-sports competition in the north of the city today. Do you want togo and check it out?"

"Sure."

After accepting Chen Yu's invitation, Gu Yingying hung up the phone and hailed a taxi.

In her previous life, she loved playing games, and since she had nothing to do today, she decided to go to the gaming exhibition.

As she arrived at the exhibition hall, many people were already walking in.

A young man in a white T-shirt was waving at her from not far away. She quickly walkedover to him.

Chen Yu handed her the ticket and said, "I just checked the list of guest participants, and 'Wuji,' the number one player in the Chinese server, is also here! Looks like this competition will be exciting!"

Upon hearing this, she silently pulled up her mask and pointed to a corner, lowering her voice, "Let's not go there, let's sit over there instead."

"Okay!"

Watching her walk away, Chen Yu felt a strange feeling he couldn't describe. However, he didn't think too much about itand quickly followed her.

In her previous life, 'Wuji,' the number one player in the Chinese server, was one of her brothers whom she had not yet met - Gu Qingchen.

He had won the national competition for three consecutive years and was a hero in the e-sports circle.

She never expected that he would come to such a small gaming competition.

After taking their seats, Gu Yingying logged into her account skillfully and waited for the competition to begin.After about ten minutes of nonsense from the organizers, the competition finally started.

She was very skilled at playing the game 'Extreme Survival' in her previous life. She not only covered Chen Yu but also successfully killed several opponents.

Chen Yu was shocked and said, "Sister Yingying, how come I never realized how good you are at playing games before!"

Gu Yingying's lips curled up. "There are still many things you haven't noticed!"

To save time, the preliminary round was divided into three matches, with sixty-fourplayers in each match.

After the first round, Gu Yingying's ranking was displayed in first place.

For a novice female player in her twenties, such a record was terrifying.

As the waiting players looked around, searching for the player with the frightening record, only Chen Yu knew that the master was sitting next to him.

According to the rules, the remaining top fifteen players from the three matches would enter the second round finals.

Just as Gu Yingying and Chen Yu hadseparated for a while, she suddenly saw "Wuji" hiding not far away.

He was holding a gun, preparing to attack another master in the esports circle in front of him, seemingly unaware of Gu Yingying's approach.

Just as Gu Yingying was about to pull the trigger, Gu Qingchen suddenly controlled his character to dodge the attack.

How could such a small trick work on him?

But soon, he realized that he was wrong.

Gu Yingying's fingers danced on the keyboard like an elf, and her swiftmovements left him no room to react.

In less than a minute, Gu Qingchen's game character was completely dead.

Gu Qingchen stood up abruptly, his emotions surging in his eyes as he stared at the game character holding the gun on the screen.

Despite the distance, Gu Yingying seemed to sense his emotions at this moment. She smiled and calmly logged out of her account.

Chen Yu was stunned by the scene and exclaimed, "You're amazing, Sister Ying Ying!"Patting his shoulder, Gu Ying Ying lowered her voice and said, "It's not fun anymore. Let's go."

Although he was her biological brother, Gu Qing Chen had never appeared since the day she came to the Gu family. She even overheard him on the phone once, saying that he didn't need a sister and that having Gu Xue was enough. The impatience in his tone was still vivid in her memory, making her unable to control the urge to kill him.

"Rank 21, Wu Ji, killed."

The cold point machine played this result repeatedly three times, causing an uproar in the exhibition hall."Am I hearing things? Who killed Wu Ji?"

"I saw it. It seems to be a level 20-something female character named 'Liu Ying'."

"How is that possible? She's only around level 200!"

"I swear, she just got first place in our arena."

"Oh my god, Wu Ji's face is turning black as coal..."

In the guest seat, Gu Qing Chen looked around and finally fixed his gaze on the slender figure in the corner.She walked away quickly, as if eager to leave.

He turned to his assistant and asked, "What does the girl who was sitting there look like? Did you see her?"

After playing this game for so long, he was forced to be in such a situation for the first time, almost powerless to fight back.

The professional player who ranked first in the national server only managed to get 21st place in such a small competition. It was a disgraceful performance.

His assistant noticed his bad mood and tried to comfort him with a smile, "It's just aittle girl. She probably got lucky."

Gu Qingchen glanced at him.

The assistant quickly changed his tone, "I'll go check it out now!"

Gu Qingchen nodded slightly, feeling slightly satisfied. Based on her skills just now, anyone with eyes could see that it wasn't just luck.

After playing in the national server for so long, he had never encountered such an opponent before.

Liuying, was it? He remembered her name
