The great god's gentle and tyrannical protection

  Kan "bus" Qianqian slept a bit unsteadily, with past events flashing vaguely in her mind. She tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep. Finally, she got out of bed, opened her computer, pulled up a Word document, and started typing frantically. It wasn't until after 4am that she yawned and went back to sleep.

  However, Gu Xixi didn't sleep for long and was woken up by Nu Bao's phone call at around 8 o'clock. The two had planned to go shopping and sing karaoke together today. Nu Bao was a friend she met on the same writing website, and they happened to be in the same city, sharing similar interests and both being single, so they often hung out together, which naturally made their relationship very good. Nu Bao was her pen name.

  "Qianqian, did you steal something last night?" Warm Baby teased while walking with Qianqian on the street, yawning countless times along the way.

  "Ah, I'm going to be late!" Gu Xixi yawned again and replied casually.

  "Flower thief?" Nuan Baobao smiled especially slyly,

  "Right! I've picked you, this big yellow flower!" Gu Xixi raised an eyebrow and responded with a playful smile.

  "I'm going." Nuan Baobao gave Gu Qianqian a big white eye with an ill temper, "Stayed up all night?"

  Gu Xixi nodded hastily, "I was writing a book last night and didn't sleep until after 4 o'clock."

  "What are you writing, so excited?" Warm Baby asked curiously, "Didn't you just submit a manuscript, aren't you supposed to be on break recently?"

  "Yes." Gu Xixi nodded, "Originally didn't want to write, couldn't sleep last night, so got up and came up with a new article."

  "What's the content?"

  "Online game." Gu Xianxian blinked her shiny black eyes and smiled back.

  "What?" Nuan Baobao was so frightened that she thought she had misheard, and hurriedly dug her ears, "I didn't hear it wrong, did I? You're writing online games?"

  "En." Gu Qianqian nodded slightly.

  "Can you write?" Warm Baby questioned, "You haven't played games before, have you?" She and Gu Xi Xi became acquainted after 2009. At that time, Gu Xi Xi had already been staying at home, writing full-time for more than half a year.

  Otaku + writer's life = monotonous and dull.

  Every day, sleep until natural wake-up, turn on the computer, open documents, either typing or thinking about typing, after finishing writing, go to reader groups or author group chats, at night shut down the computer and sleep, a day just passes like this, day after day repeating like this.

  "I used to play online games for a while," Gu Qianqian chatted with Nuanbaobao, "but I stopped playing later."

  "Why didn't it end later?" Warm Baby asked curiously.

  "It's over, so it's over." Gu XiXi obviously didn't want to talk about this topic anymore and changed the subject vaguely. "How about you? I heard you've been writing a rebirth novel lately?"

  "Ah, never mind." Warm Baby made a bitter face and waved her hand: "I started writing a novel about a mansion, but ended up getting dizzy from all the characters - the master of the house, the mistress, the young masters, and whatnot."

  "Haha!" Gu XiXi couldn't help but laugh out loud, her phone rang, "The bustling city has retreated into the empty door, shattering the dreams of mortals, and the emotions of a lifetime have been reduced to a few volumes... like you're stuck in a cycle of birth and death, waiting and waiting..." Gu XiXi looked at the unfamiliar number on her phone screen, her expression slightly hesitant. Since she had become a recluse, she didn't really like to be in contact with strangers, and naturally, she didn't want to answer calls from unfamiliar numbers.

  "Honey, stop arguing, answer the phone quickly." Warm Baby grabbed Qian Qian's mobile phone and helped her answer it, handing it over to her while winking and making eyes at her.

  "Hello," said Gu Xixi politely.

  "Xian Xian, it's me." Wang Zihua's low and magnetic voice came from the phone receiver.

  Gu Xixi's mind went blank for a second, her heartbeat skipped a beat, and she didn't respond.

  "Qianqian, can you hear me?" Wang Zihua was afraid that Qianqian couldn't hear him, so he raised his voice and repeated it again.

  "En." Gu Cici simply responded with a single word. Last night, Ye Feifei had called her to invite her to attend her own wedding, and now Wang Zihua was calling her again for what reason?

  "Do you know that Ye Feifei is getting married?" Wang Zihua asked tentatively.

  "En, know." Gu Xixi replied concisely.

  "Are you going then?" Prince Wang's voice hesitated before asking.

  "No." Gu Xixi replied succinctly.

  The Wang Zihua on the other end of the phone fell silent for a moment before speaking in a somewhat embarrassed tone, "I thought you'd go!"

  "I had something on that day." To avoid misunderstanding, Gu Xixi added, "I've been quite busy lately and couldn't take time off."

  "Oh!" Wang Zihua responded with a sound, hesitated for a moment and asked: "Have you been doing well lately?"

  "It's fine." Gu Xixi replied in a formulaic manner, then quickly cut to the chase and said: "Do you have anything else? If not, I'm busy right now, that's it!"

  " I... " Prince Hua wanted to speak but hesitated.

  Gu Xixi patiently waited for a while, and finally heard him sigh and say: "Nothing else, just like this." As soon as the call was cut off, she took a deep breath.

  "Who?" Nuan Baobao looked at Gu Qianqian's expression and asked anxiously.

  "Ex-boyfriend." Qiu Cici rolled her eyes, downplaying it as much as possible.

  "Emotional ex-boyfriend?" Warm Baby raised an eyebrow and asked tentatively.

  "No." Qiu Qianqian shook her head lightly, but in her heart, she wasn't very sure.

  Someone once said that the best way to forget a feeling is time and new love. Gu Xixi didn't encounter new love, so she used 3 years of her own time. She herself was clear that she had already given up, but if she were to say that she forgot, that would be too fake. After all, Wang Zihua was her once pure and beautiful first love, even though the outcome was hurtful to her.

  "Judging from your uncertain answer, I have deep doubts about your 'no'. Nuanbao pouted, "Come on, give me the gossip and let me analyze it for you."

  "Actually, there's nothing much to say." Gu XiXi still spoke lightly, glanced at her phone and saw that Lin Hao was calling her. She smiled apologetically at Nuan Baobao: "I'll take this call."

  Nuan Baobao nodded and pouted, looking at Gu Xiangxiang answering the phone warmly...

  As soon as Gu Xixi hung up Lin Hao's phone, she was met with a warm and smiling face: "Xixi, what exactly is your relationship with your junior brother? I feel like it's so ambiguous?"

  "Don't be ambiguous about it!" Gu XiXi hastily denied, "Don't talk nonsense."

  "I didn't say anything, dear, look at your excited reaction!" Warm Baby continued to tease fearlessly, "Tsk tsk, it's thought-provoking!"

  "What's on your mind?" Gu Xixi asked, pretending to be silly.
