Chapter 1170 - 14: Best Friends

Every month, this game releases new appearances.

Zhang Mengfei has also bought appearances, but not every month.

Whenever a new appearance is released, someone in the game group talks to her about it, and most of the time, her reasons are that it’s not good-looking, she doesn’t like it, or it doesn’t resonate with her, so she doesn’t buy it.

The Gang Leader has tried several times to give her expensive appearances, but she firmly refused.

This is one of the reasons why the Gang Leader sees her differently.

Ask any top student at A University, who wouldn’t be tempted by someone who’s wealthy and has a good personality?

But Zhang Mengfei is somewhat uneasy because, aside from being a student at A University, all other information about her is fabricated.

One lie needs countless other lies to cover it.

Zhang Mengfei’s lie is like a snowball, getting bigger and bigger.

She’s thought about quitting the game, uninstalling it. But she can’t resist the wonderful feeling of being adored like the moon surrounded by stars.

...

In the afternoon, while Zhang Mengfei was playing the game, she received a call from her advisor, asking her to come to the office immediately.

She had a bad feeling rising in her heart.

Once she got to the office, the advisor indeed criticized her harshly.

First, she frequently skips classes, and second, playing games in the dormitory disturbs others’ rest.

She was told to correct her behavior immediately and stop skipping classes.

After the scolding, the advisor earnestly advised, "Games are virtual. You might say the friendships in there are real, but let me ask you this: can they help you pass your exams? Can they help you find a job in the future? Can they issue you a diploma? You’re still a student now. What should you prioritize? I don’t think I need to say more. Having gotten into this university, don’t disappoint everyone’s expectations."

Zhang Mengfei nodded on the surface, agreeing and showing she would change.

But in her heart, she was already burning with anger.

Why did the advisor come to her? It must have been her roommates reporting her.

What’s the big deal about playing a game? How does it bother them?

Everything they easily have in reality is out of her reach. The things she longed for in the game that she managed to obtain, they want to take away from her too!

How hateful!

Zhang Mengfei originally planned to confront Han Ting and the others when they returned, to have a big argument about why they did this. But after sitting down, she changed her mind.

Falling out with them now wouldn’t do her any good.

But she was reluctant to stop gaming by 10:30 PM.

What should she do about this?

After much thought, Zhang Mengfei decided to rent a place near the school with a classmate. A classmate of hers had previously mentioned wanting to rent outside.

But this requires a significant amount of money. Where would the money come from?

Anyway, her pride wouldn’t allow her to ask the people in the dorm for money.

If not, she’d have to borrow from a classmate first.

This month, she’s truly out of money. The money she earned from her part-time job is all spent, and she has to save most of this month’s food expenses to pay off last month’s credit installment.

She’ll let her classmate front the rent money for now and find a way to pay it back later.

When Han Ting and the others learned that Zhang Mengfei was moving out, they looked at each other in surprise and puzzlement. They knew about Zhang Mengfei’s financial situation. Now, just to play games, she’s moving out and taking on such a huge expense? Is it necessary?

Tianmiao sighed slightly in his heart. This human has gone astray and hasn’t been guided back.
