Chapter 399 You All Love Me After Losing Weight (11)

Chapter 399: After Losing Weight, Everyone Loves Me (11)

The paused screen allowed Lu Tongchu to clearly see Xing Zhe's face on the screen.

Vibrant pink hair, every aspect of it was different from his own.

What clung to him was always the gloom of fading dusk, lifeless and dull.

But on Xing Zhe, there was the complete opposite—raw, vibrant energy.

A completely different personality, a completely different vitality...

People like this had always been the ones he detested the most.

On the screen, Xing Zhe was snapping insults at Tang Qing, "Hey, fatso, you're in my seat..."

"Hey, done staring?"

By the time he heard the third "fatty," Lu Tongchu scowled deeply once again!

He took another deep look at Xing Zhe's obnoxious pink hair, thought for a moment...

Then his fingers typed on the keyboard again, and the enter key was pressed.

On the other side, just as Xing Zhe was about to log into Shan He Tu, he suddenly discovered... his account had been locked!

"Password error?"

Not giving up, he entered the password again, but the page still displayed "password error"!

How was this possible?

All his passwords used the same set of characters.

Was he hacked?

Refusing to believe it, Xing Zhe tried to request a password reset, only to receive an email from Shan He Tu:

"Dear [Blast Drummer], it has been detected that this account has recently made multiple toxic comments. The platform has decided to temporarily freeze this account for three days."

What did they mean by toxic comments?

Xing Zhe seriously tried to recall. He'd been busy with band rehearsals these past few days and hardly had any chance to log into the game. What toxic comments could there possibly be?

Goddammit, are Shan He Tu's servers acting up today?

Are they deliberately targeting me?

The pink-haired young man clearly showed a flash of anger in his eyes, his fingers jabbing at the screen several times in a row, but the same message kept appearing!

Damn it!

He simply couldn't log in!

Just then, [Bei Zhichun] from the Maple Blue Alliance happened to send Xing Zhe a message, "Drummer, where are you?"

"Didn't we agree to run the new season dungeon together today?"

It turned out that after Tang Qing’s "Maoer Cangcang" quit the game, the Maple Blue Alliance had lost a top-tier support.

The ID "Explosive Drummer" was specifically recruited by "Bei Zhichun" from outside the guild to replace Tang Qing. Earlier that day, "Bei Zhichun" had sworn to the guild that this newly recruited player’s skills were absolutely up to par and definitely no worse than "Maoer Cangcang"!

Just when everyone thought the alliance’s new season dungeon run would go off without a hitch… unexpectedly, at the critical moment, the other party dropped the ball.

"What! Your account has issues?"

"Did you remember the wrong password, Drummer? This is no time for jokes—don't you dare be joking with me!"

He had just made a military order!

Hearing the irritated tone in "Bei Zhichun’s" voice over the phone, Xing Zhe’s own tone turned equally harsh: "Who’s joking with you?"

"Getting mad at me won't help."

"If you’ve got the guts, go file a complaint with the Mountain and River Diagram backend. Better yet, ask them exactly what I’ve said recently that made the system deem my speech inappropriate."

"As for today’s mission… don't annoy me, I can’t make it."

Without waiting for "Bei Zhichun" to finish, Xing Zhe cut him off and hung up the phone!

Damn it!

What a terrible attitude!

Holding the disconnected phone, for a moment, Han Chang couldn't help but miss Tang Qing…

Appearance aside, Tang Qing was at least even-tempered. Whenever she agreed to take on a guild mission, she never bailed halfway like this.

With the promised healer failing to show up on time, even though the guild leader "Zhangjie Rimu" managed to find a temporary replacement, the "Maple Blue Alliance" still couldn’t secure the first clear for the dungeon.

They only managed to take fourth place.

World Channel: "Congratulations to the 【Maple Blue Alliance】 for clearing the story dungeon: The Other Shore Reincarnation, with a clear time of 1 hour and 43 minutes!"

"Oh wow! I was wondering why we hadn’t seen the 【Maple Blue Alliance】 this new season. Turns out they came in fourth this time."

"Hehehe, with 【Maoer Cangcang】 gone, they’re short a healer. This result… is a bit of a drop."

As the top guild in Mountain and River Diagram, the "Maple Blue Alliance" had almost always secured the first clear for every new season’s story dungeon!

This fourth-place finish was probably the guild’s worst performance in its two-year history.

Not only were there people mocking in the world channel, but even within the guild’s own channel, many expressed dissatisfaction:

"Sigh, nothing beats the old teammates."

"Some people confidently claim they can handle it, but in the end, when it comes down to it, they say they can’t!"

"Why not just focus on gaming instead of all that lovey-dovey nonsense!"

…

Although these guild members didn’t explicitly mention "Maoer Cangcang," Han Chang could clearly sense their veiled sarcasm!

He immediately fired back in the guild channel:

"So you’re blaming me, is that it?"

"How amusing. She catfished me—not only did she play with my emotions, but she also swindled me out of a good amount of money. And I'm just supposed to not expose her?"

"So I'm just supposed to be the fool, play dumb, and fly side by side with Piggy Sister?"

After the "Maoer Cangcang" catfishing incident, the Maple Blue Alliance had almost reached a unanimous consensus. Even at the height of the '818' drama, very few people brought it up in the alliance's internal channels.

Today was the first time "Maoer Cangcang" had been brought into the open...

"[Bei Zhichun], isn’t that a bit harsh? I remember in the '818' posts, Cangcang mentioned that you both sent money to each other."

"Why only talk about Cangcang taking your money? If I recall correctly, that flying mount you’re using was a gift from Cangcang, wasn’t it…"

The person speaking was named "[Bu Yunxu]," who was on good terms with "Maoer Cangcang." The two often interacted more frequently in the channels.

The guild had even joked several times that "[Bu Yunxu]" probably had a crush on Maoer, always being the first to greet her whenever she came online.

"Hah, still calling her 'Cangcang' now! What, still under the goddess illusion?"

"Let me be honest, you should be glad it was me who met Maoer Cangcang offline—just a Piggy Sister, words can’t describe…"

"Ugly and fat—If you saw her in real life, I doubt you’d still be defending her…"

There was a hint of bitterness in Han Chang’s message!

Absolutely ridiculous!

He had actually wasted so much time on this Piggy Sister!

Thinking back to how he used to dote on Tang Qing, Han Chang felt even more disgusted!

Back then, he had pursued her because of Maoer Cangcang’s reputation as the number one beauty in Shanhe Tu. He thought...

For the top beauty, putting in extra effort would naturally be worth it.

Only now did it hit Han Chang—no wonder Maoer Cangcang had always refused to video call with him!

In the end, it was all about deception and evasion!

"She deceived me, pretending to be the number one beauty in Shanhe Tu. I just exposed her—why are you blaming me?"
